Law of the Swarm

Chapter 264 Cult
Because of the update of [Data Template] 2.0, the bone dragon even bit the head of the old Lich into pieces, System was totally unaware of it.

If System could have anticipated this situation earlier, perhaps he would have changed his strategy and made the game a little more conscientious.

In this way, the old lich will not be so crazy, and the bone dragon will not attack his partner into the phylactery.

Actually speaking, System just followed the usual routine in online games in the previous life. While giving players generous rewards, he released more lucrative krypton gold activities to encourage players to krypton gold.

As the game is updated, rewards will become more and more generous, and krypton gold activities will become more and more valuable.

Doing so will inevitably depreciate the player's early krypton gold, causing players to become more and more disappointed with the game. When the player finally stops krypton, the player will withdraw sadly. The speed of the deserted down.

However, game companies are also making a lot of money in a short period of time.

And long before the players quit the pit, the game company has already launched a brand new game, continuing to attract money unscrupulously.

……

It took five full days for the old lich to return to the phylactery before System heard about it during the bone dragon Donald's krypton gold process.

The old lich, who was always sinister and cunning, was sent into the phylactery by his partner because of a small routine of online games. condemn.

Especially after giving a private krypton gold discount and hearing the thanks from Skeleton Dragon Donald, System felt a little bit sorry.

Compared to the sinister and cunning old lich who always thought of harming others, Donald the bone dragon was far too simple.

But in the end, System decided to make up his mind. In any case, his purpose of releasing games was to make profits, not to make players feel happy.

For the matter of the old lich, one can only blame the old lich for being too addicted to the game, so it is actually good to return to the phylactery and be resurrected.

As for more, he can't control it. After all, he didn't force the other party to make krypton gold in the game, but the other party came to beg him.

……

In fact, when Donald the bone dragon bit the head of the old lich into pieces.

System has been staring at the main plane, the [Data Template] of Miss Jenny, the daughter of the Earl.

System did this, on the one hand, to find out the truth about these humans burning bananas, and on the other hand, he was a little worried about Jenny, a little human girl who always liked to cling to him.

Compared with powerful legendary creatures, Jenny, who is a mortal, even if she has the [Mind Transmission] that can increase mental power, her mental power is not enough to cross the abyss to update the [Data Template].

Based on System's understanding of Jenny, this little girl is extremely obsessed with him. Even if the little girl finds that her mental strength is not enough, she will insist on updating the [data template].

System really didn't want this little girl's continuous mental exhaustion to cause any problems, so that the [data template] he gave to Jenny at the beginning would undoubtedly become a murder weapon, contrary to his original purpose.

So System decided to secretly help the little girl when she failed to update the [data template], and let her complete the update normally.

However, System, who was observing, found that although the update speed of the [data template] of the little girl Jenny is slow, the update is very continuous.

After more than ten minutes, Jenny successfully updated the [data template].

System didn't know that Miss Jenny had the small pills that the alchemist gave her that could replenish mental power. After taking five of these small pills, Jenny was able to complete the [data template] without any risk. renew.

"Could it be that after becoming mentally ill, the mental power will increase?"

System is full of doubts, but he has no plans to communicate with Jenny through the [data template] for the time being.

He just checked the content of Jenny [data template] to find the reason why these humans burned bananas. If he couldn't find the reason, he would choose to communicate with this little girl.

System found a variety of materials in Jenny's [Data Template]. There are many unknown ledgers in the data. The goods recorded in the ledgers are also various, including food, spices, cloth, and many daily necessities. .

Among these materials, System also found several spell books, which recorded some methods of communicating different energies and driving many low-level spells.

This basic book on spells was exactly what System planned to study after he became an extraordinary creature, and it was also what he lacked the most.

In addition, in Jenny's video data, System also found several locked delusional movies of Jenny.

As for the content of the film, it was the tentacle monster vs. the beautiful girl that System was familiar with in his previous life. It was roughly divided into two modes: tentacle whipping and tentacles entanglement. In short, the content was very discordant.

System always felt uncomfortable with this kind of film, especially after discovering that the protagonist of the film was himself.

Originally, System had decided not to do anything with the little girl's things, but after thinking about it, he still mosaiced all the tentacles in several movies, and processed the little girl's panting sound, turning it into—beep.

In the process of continuing to check, System finally discovered the reason why these humans burned bananas based on another video.

It turned out that all this was because of the golden banana logo he had on the boot screen of the [data template], the icon he designed at will.

System thought about it carefully for a while, and found that it seemed unreasonable for these humans to burn bananas, but it actually made sense.

Compared with the lizard people and snake people in the abyss who only know how to survive, eat, and mate, and have a violent personality and low intelligence, human beings have higher wisdom, stronger understanding, and more various desires.

After satisfying the basic material needs, human beings will start to think wildly, and the practice of burning bananas may be the product of these human misinterpretations.

In the world without supernatural powers in System's previous life, some cults would be born, not to mention burning fruits, even self-burning.

And all the more so in a world that itself has supernatural powers.

In the myths and legends that System watched, this kind of thing is not uncommon. Human beings thought they believed in gods, but finally sacrificed their souls to the demons of the abyss. It happened every few years; 100 years ago, even There is an unknown church that made more than a thousand believers commit suicide by drowning in water...

System estimated that these people burned the bananas because they believed that the various functions of the [data template] were related to a certain sleeping god, so they did so.

"I'm not some god."

System shook his head while thinking. After seeing that several [data templates] in the main world failed to be updated, he re-issued the update instructions for other [data templates] on this plane.

Inform other humans that they can go to Jenny to complete the [data template] update.
