Volume 5: A New Era Chapter 157: Complete Defeat
The power of the metaverse is enormous; after all, it is the strongest combat force in theory.
Although due to various circumstances, Chang Lan has not even reached one-tenth of the theoretical goal.
But it also shows how powerful this force is. Are the powerful people willing to hand over this power to a "just" person?
The answer is that we are not at ease, so there are various restrictions.
Those restrictions seem to be speaking for justice, but upon closer inspection, they are actually supporting the powerful.
It is so easy for the powerful to manipulate public opinion that they don't even need to falsify information.
Just by selectively releasing the truth about some things, or blurring the sequence of events, you can make the entire incident look completely different and then detonate netizens.
The means of manipulating public opinion is the first line of defense.
Then comes the second line of defense, the identity authority of the metaverse.
Most people who log into the Metaverse can only engage in basic social entertainment. While helping to build the Metaverse, they only have two options: support Changlan or give up.
Most of these people are low-authority personnel.
Some people with stronger leadership abilities will be slightly promoted to a higher level. Of course, these people are actually professional fan leaders and professional agents.
Then come the accounts of the powerful.
The account weights of the powerful and wealthy are completely incomparable to those of low-authority personnel. Even if public opinion outside is in an uproar, as long as a few powerful and wealthy people choose to input opposite spiritual power at the same time, Chang Lan will not be able to use the metaverse .
This involves the underlying operating mode of the Metaverse. A powerful high-level account can directly enter the internal operation of the Metaverse, and the effect it produces cannot be compared with tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people operating together.
Simply put, the mental power input by ordinary people needs to go through various basic operations that support the metaverse, and after most of the directional beliefs are polished away, it becomes relatively pure mental power.
The spiritual power input from the powerful and wealthy goes directly into the core. Not only will its directional beliefs not be worn away, but it will also constantly absorb other spiritual powers and grow stronger during operation.
The inequality in account weights means that when it comes to executing something big, the powerful and wealthy are the “majority”.
And this inequality is also reflected in the level of protection.
If Changlan is the first layer of protection wall and also the access point, then these low-authority personnel are the second layer of protection wall. After that, it is necessary to break through a layer of system protection wall before reaching the spirits of the powerful.
That’s right, except for Chang Lan, low-authority personnel have no other protection.
This has led to the current situation.
Look at what you have protected.jpg
The pollution that Lu Bai transformed from his true demon form cannot be faked.
Chang Lan can act like an ostrich, get stuck in his own brain loop, and still be able to persevere.
This is the result of his strong nerves being brainwashed by the Metaverse since childhood.
Although those people loved Brother Changlan in their hearts and worshipped him fanatically.
However, spiritual strength is extremely fragile because it has been expended.
Once contaminated by the devil, it is easy to fall into negative states such as coma.
In this situation, Chang Lan's so-called protection of everyone's smiles is nothing more than using everyone's lives to protect the interests of the powerful.
"So now you still want to fight with me?" Lu Bai approached Chang Lan step by step.
Chang Lan glared at Lu Bai at this moment. He could indeed still hold on, but that was all he could do.
During this battle, he looked for opportunities many times, but none of them were successful.
Lu Bai can understand people's hearts, and he has the Seven Theories of Mind to cooperate with him. In addition, he can sense the changes in Chang Lan's Desire Fruit. In fact, all of the other party's plans are under Lu Bai's control.
If he fails to destroy Lu Bai's defense with absolute strength, then what he will face next is just being played around by Lu Bai.
In terms of comprehension and various sophisticated operations, Lu Bai is indeed just an average person. At most, he has gained a little bit of improvement as his strength increases.
But when it comes to fighting, he is an absolute genius.
Able to keenly perceive changes in any elements around the battlefield.
Can easily detect the enemy's mentality and thoughts.
Then the extremely skilled ones can think from the enemy's perspective and predict the enemy's tactics.
Afterwards, you can reasonably allocate the factors you can use and naturally utilize the enemy's blind spots.
Why Lu Bai’s enemies sometimes seem to have low IQs? That’s because Lu Bai is a master of conspiracy and intrigue.
Lu Bai almost treated these things as instinct.
Normally when people arrange a fight, they pick up their weapons, go to the location, exchange a few polite words, and then start fighting if they disagree.
After arranging a fight, Lu Bai would investigate the environment at the fight location, hide his weapons to show his weakness to the enemy, and maybe even call a few friends to ambush nearby.
Even at the very beginning of a conflict, Lu Bai would hunch his body slightly and use some morphological techniques to make the opponent feel weak.
These things have almost become Lu Bai's instinct.
Hide yourself, understand the enemy, and then use the information gap to mislead the enemy.
After this, Lu Bai's enemies will basically make some wrong judgments.
Then Lu Bai himself has a strong ability to seize opportunities. Once the enemy makes a mistake, he can directly seize the opponent's pain point and gain the advantage.
Once Lu Bai gains the advantage, it will be almost impossible for you to make a comeback by using tricks outside the game, because Lu Bai knows those tricks you want to use to make a comeback better than you do, and his tricks may even be more sophisticated than you think.
In a way, fighting Lu Bo is similar to challenging Batman to a duel.
If you want to defeat Lu Bai, you must be stronger than Lu Bai and launch a surprise attack. Try to avoid unnecessary complications during the attack and choose an environment without too many external objects.
Then in this situation, Lu Bai would definitely choose to escape. Compared to fighting, Lu Bai is better at escaping and saving his life.
In his life, the only gank he had never escaped was the dimensional change caused by the God of Thousand Dimensions.
He still can't figure out why the driverless car was able to hit him directly after crossing the dimensional space.
Well, Lu Bai was killed by the dimensional change and then an unmanned car that suddenly rushed out from space.
It was a very miserable death.
At that time, several of his fellow martial artists who had been bullied by Lu Bai were so eager to open a bottle of champagne and say "good luck" to Lu Bai after seeing him die.
Of course, Lu Bai has already made up for this loophole. Even if the dimension changes again, causing something to suddenly travel through space to gank him, Lu Bai is confident that he can escape directly.
Faced with Lu Bai in this situation, there is no chance for others to have fun.
To put it bluntly, justice is in the hearts of the people.
Although Chang Lan ranks first in popularity and has many loyal fans, many times the support he gets on some things is far less than that of others.
Probably because he never really changed the situation for his fans.
Lu Bai is different. The mutual aid association is still expanding. Although Lu Bai cannot perform the immortal head touch personally, he has granted this authority to the Five Heavenly Demons and asked them to develop external members.
Those are real benefits, which are fundamentally different from the cheap pleasures that serve as substitutes .
In other words, the Metaverse currently only has one interface, Changlan, and Lu Bai does not have the ability to install another external interface on it.
Otherwise, Lu Bai, who has the support of the demons, might be able to crush Chang Lan in terms of spiritual power alone.
"I will never give up, you bastard who tarnished everyone's smiles, I will definitely defeat you!" It has to be said that Chang Lan does have the belief of a passionate protagonist who never gives up.
Unfortunately, he does not have the final say on many things.
That is, at the moment when he shouted that he would never give up Lu Bai, he suddenly lost the blessing of the metaverse.
A series of evidence appeared on the Internet.
The incarnation of the devil who held the company hostage, launched missiles, and caused numerous destructions was found to be the work of Lu Bai's fanatical fans and had nothing to do with Lu Bai himself.
Posted on the Internet were receipts of someone's plastic surgery, as well as a photo of a person Lu Bai didn't know at all as a prototype. In addition, there was also his action plan and so on.
Therefore, Lu Bai is still a law-abiding foreign friend who loves science and martial arts culture, loves this land, and has a friendly communication foundation.
As for Chang Lan, his use of the power of the metaverse this time was deemed to be an illegal operation.
Those supporters who were contaminated by Lu Bai and fell into a coma were also deemed to have violated regulations, which led to backlash.
In this battle, Chang Lan was completely defeated!
