Chapter 453 How to achieve a good ending?
How can we get a good ending?
Obviously, apart from the violent method of unpacking, we can only start from the existing game plot and make reasonable inferences.
In fact, for the big unpackers, as long as they are willing, they can find the corresponding unlocking method of the plot after continuous digging, but these people generally do not choose to do so.
If you unpack and give the standard answer directly, what else can the players play?
Isn't this equivalent to spoilers?
Therefore, these unpackers are afraid of being rushed and dare not directly reveal all these endings. We can only tell everyone that there are five different endings based on the content seen in the unpacking, but the specific endings must be kept secret as much as possible.
In addition, players have another channel to know the names of these endings.
That is the achievement system of the game itself.
From the unlocked achievements of "Blood of Lies", in addition to the two bad endings of "Ancient God's Dependents" and "Lost Heart Dolls", the other three endings are:
"Slaughter God", "Heart of Freedom" and "I am God".
Players simply call them "God-killing Ending", "Free Ending" and "God-becoming Ending".
With the guidance of these three names, players can roughly guess the plots of these endings.
The God-killing Ending should be able to kill the last invisible ancient god and no longer have to become a follower.
The God-becoming Ending goes a step further, and it seems that it can replace it and become a new god?
As for what the free ending is, it is a bit broad, but most players think it should be a good ending corresponding to the "Lost Heart Ending", that is, although the player is a puppet, he has gained freedom and is not controlled by the puppet craftsman?
Well, it makes sense.
With these three good endings hanging like carrots in front, players have become active again, like diligent donkeys, they have begun to work hard, oh no, suffer.
…
“Damn it, these idiots, I’ve worked so hard but still can’t catch up with their progress.”
“But with this group of people trying and failing for me, I don’t have to rush to get through the ending. I can enjoy it more and observe the details of the game.
“…By the way, where is the enjoyment in this game!”
Zhuge Jun couldn’t help but complain.
Although he wanted to avoid spoilers in the past two days, he had too much free time. Whether it was eating or before going to bed, it was easy to see spoilers about “Blood of Lies”. He really couldn’t restrain his curiosity and still roughly knew about the ending of the game.
But this is also good. At least he is not in a hurry to get through.
If Zhuge Jun was as anxious to get through as others, it goes without saying that he would definitely get the “Dependent Ending” and there would be no other possibilities.
But now, he doesn’t have to rush.
Anyway, the ending he got was a bad one. It’s better to look for more details during the game and explore how to get a good ending. Maybe he can get a good ending earlier than others?
"From the current situation, there are three ancient gods directly related to the main storyline in this game.
"Then this invisible ancient god seems to be very similar to the old ruler Sasla who represents the stars and is worshipped by the Starry Sky School. The authority it corresponds to seems to be "spiritual vision", which is characterized by no specific form, and is also the source of madness in the tragic events of the Starry Sky School.
"Then Ilonak corresponds to the Deep Sea School and the Healing Church?
"It seems that the third ancient god is still unknown, but it seems to be the object of worship of the Eternal School and the Moon School.
"Wait, it is obviously the Eternal School that is conducting taboo experiments, but it is not this third mysterious ancient god that is attracted, but Sasla worshipped by the Starry Sky School? Is it because the Eternal School wore a birdcage when it was doing things?"
Zhuge Jun has collected a lot of in-game information since playing until now.
Whether it is the Healing Church, which is famous for blood therapy, or the Deep Sea School, which originally worshipped Ilonak and first obtained the remains of the ancient god and established a huge church, or the relevant information of the Eternal School and the Moon School obtained after going deep into the underground mine, they are actually further supplementing the world view of "Blood of Lies".
These contents are intricate, and the plot is seriously fragmented. If you don't piece them together carefully, it is easy to confuse.
For example, many players think that there is only one ancient god, the one worshipped by the cathedral, but it is not.
After sorting out the timeline, it is easy to find that the research on crystallization and unclean blood is constantly advancing, and the ancient gods believed and worshiped by humans are not the same.
After discovering the unclean blood and the worship of gods in the ruins, scholars in Charlton City began to study.
Among them, the Starry Sky School is also called the Original School. They are the earliest group of people who study the ancient gods, and can also be regarded as fundamentalists who are in the same line with the knowledge of the ruins.
The god they worship is Sasra, the old ruler of the stars. The specific method is to continuously improve spiritual vision, including exploring eyes and vision, wearing a device similar to a birdcage, etc. But this method caused some disasters, so related research stagnated.
At this time, the remains of the ancient god were found on the seashore of Charlton City, so these sects hurriedly brought it back for research. Many scholars believe that the remains of the ancient god belong to Sasra, but in fact, the remains of the ancient god belong to Ilonak, the ruler of the deep sea.
As a result, the school split, and the Deep Sea School and the Healing Church emerged.
Because the remains of Ilonak contain the well-preserved blood of the ancient gods and are extremely effective in blood therapy, the belief in Ilonak has become mainstream in the entire city of Charlton, and the magnificent Grand The church and the huge healing church are actually the products of belief in Ilonak.
As for the third ancient god, in fact, there are not many signs of its existence so far. It can only be vaguely inferred from some descriptions of the Eternal School and the Moon School that it is different from the previous two.
Because the characteristics of this ancient god are obviously different from the previous two.
The stars Sathra represents the authority of spiritual vision. Just being looked at by him will lead you directly to madness. Of course, it is also possible to gain very terrifying knowledge;
And the deep sea Ilonak represents the authority of flesh and blood. He has a body with infinite power, and the flesh and blood itself has majestic vitality;
As for the third ancient god believed in by the Eternal School and the Moon School, it seems that he does not have the ability of the first two, but he has the ability to create illusions, and the incomplete heart of the ancient god produced by the flesh and blood structure seems to be related to it. There are inextricably linked.
After summarizing this information, Zhuge Jun felt a little dizzy.
There's nothing we can do about it, because similar mythological stories are inherently messy, with more than a dozen ancient gods playing a big chess game in a small town.
In this game, the production team very considerately reduced the number to three ancient gods, which is already quite a show of respect.
But at least this temporarily solves Zhuge Jun's previous question, why was the player killed by Sasla in the plot just after killing Ilonak?
He seemed helpless to fight back.
The reason is actually not difficult to guess, because the powers held by these two ancient gods are originally different.
If it starts as a human, the player keeps lying and increasing his spiritual vision. By the time he reaches the final boss, he will basically be in a state of restraint against Ilonak.
Because Ilonak's authority is flesh and blood, it is nothing more than a stronger vitality, and players can effectively attack his weaknesses after improving their spiritual vision.
But Sasla himself holds the power of spiritual vision, and the player happens to have extra points in spiritual vision. Doesn't this fall into the category of "who in the hall is suing me"?
If it's the puppet route and there's no psychic vision at all, then you don't have to be controlled by Sathra.
"Based on the current situation, if we reasonably infer that if we want to turn these two bad endings into good endings, the most important thing is to find a way to defeat the ancient god Sathra and the puppet craftsman Jim.
“It’s not clear how to deal with Jim, that’s something players who start with puppets consider.
"And if I start as a human, it will be difficult to take the spiritual vision route and defeat Sathra who has the power of spiritual vision at the same time.
"Wait a minute, maybe there is a restraint relationship between these ancient gods?
"What did the player use to induce Ilonak to come?
"It is the incomplete ancient god's heart constructed of flesh and blood. In other words, this incomplete ancient god's heart is some kind of tonic for Ilonak.
“As for Ilonak, he was restrained by Sathra.
"Assuming these two points are true, is it possible that the third mysterious ancient god has the ability to create illusions and control thoughts, and can restrain Sathra's spiritual vision?"
Zhuge Jun is not sure whether his inference is reliable, but based on common sense, if you want to defeat the ancient gods, you must first have authority of almost the same level as the ancient gods.
It is impossible to obtain the authority of Sathra and Ilonak, so we can only find the answer from this mysterious third ancient god.
This third ancient god is the ancient god pursued by the Eternal School and the Moon School.
Zhuge Jun flipped through the information again, and then discovered that the Eternal School and the Moon School were not the same thing.
Many schools in this game actually have different names. For example, the Starry Sky School is the first to appear, so it is also called the Original School. The two are the same thing; and the Deep Sea School and the Healing Church are inextricably linked.
So Zhuge Jun initially thought that the Eternal School and the Moon School were the same thing.
But upon closer inspection, I discovered that not only are the two not the same thing, but they are actually hostile.
The Eternal School is the crazy school that keeps causing trouble in the game. On the surface, they worship this mysterious third ancient god. In fact, they provoke everyone, and they often try to fight with Sathra and Ilonak. An ancient god establishes a connection.
The Moon School is a small branch that split from the Eternal School. Their beliefs are relatively pure and they basically only believe in this mysterious ancient god.
"So, if you want to further search for this ancient god, you should start with the mysterious Moon School, right?"
Zhuge Jun scratched his head and tried to recall all the clues he encountered in the game.
