Chapter 213: Chapter 197 "Reincarnated as a Monster

The next piece of information.

"In 2010, a ’Superpower Researcher’ named Fiona Bumei discovered that, like many others, she remembered that South African President Mandela ’should have died in prison in the 1980s’, but in reality, Mandela did not die in the 1980s. He was later released and even became the South African President, still alive until 2010 (Mandela passed away in 2013)."

"However, there had been claims before 2010 that some people distinctly remembered Mandela dying in prison during the 80s."

"The claimants could describe reports they had read back then, televised segments of the funeral, and even the tear-inducing speech by Mandela’s widow. After this statement was made, it received a significant online response, with many netizens indicating they had the same memory."

The Mandela Effect, a rather famous phenomenon in group psychology, was something Wang Hao had also heard about.

Mainstream science still lacked the power to explain this collective phenomenon.

It turned out that here it had taken on a new form, becoming part of the game material, which couldn’t help but make him laugh wryly.

"This is yet another failed attempt by ’Illusion’..."

"It tried to change humanity’s collective cognition through rumors."

"However, it failed again for some unknown reason... maybe because Mandela’s life was too tough. As long as he was alive, naturally no one would believe the rumors."

"Cognitive pollution is indeed very troublesome. Its anchors might be dispersed, making it very difficult to remove them one by one. And this matter is related to Parallel Worlds."

After thinking for a long time, he still hadn’t come up with a good solution.

Nor had he figured out what use the "female character Feng Ling", which he had managed to obtain with great difficulty, actually had.

"Forget it. Right now, I’ve only gotten to the (2/4) stage, and there are two more scripts waiting for me to collect clues... if humanity is about to perish again, I’ll just save the world one more time."

When playing games, the mindset should be relaxed.

Should players worry about the end of the human world in the game?

Of course not; as long as there are players, humanity cannot possibly perish.

The savior routine always works without fail.

Knowing full well that he was going to save humanity again, he was still quite excited.

Just as he was about to spend money to draw for clues, he saw a line of small text in the lower right corner of the page: "Important notice: Due to your current game progress, you are about to catch up with the production progress, and in the subsequent clue drawings, you will not be able to draw main quests from ’Moon of Illusion’. You can only draw random clues of 1-3 star difficulty."

"We have carefully created a mini-game: ’Reincarnated into a Bizarre Creature’, and we hope you like it."

Old Wang sighed, scratching his head in resignation.

After all, in single-player games, one always catches up to the game’s progress.

What if he finished the Demon God and there’s no next one?

The waiting period for updates could be painfully long...

As for the new mini-game—’Reincarnated into a Bizarre Creature’.

He clicked on the mini-game and gave it a try.

"Huh? Not bad?"

The screen shifted to the deep sea, dimly lit, with a vague silhouette of a colossal creature.

The graphics were still shockingly good, as always.

He became a tiny speck of light, living in the Etheric Abyss, encountering all sorts of dangers, all sorts of adventures.

It felt a bit bland at first, but he quickly found the fun in it.

’Reincarnated into a Bizarre Creature’ tells the story of a small primitive organism in the Etheric Abyss, constantly growing and evolving.

Playing it felt a bit like an old game ’Spore’ in the first phase, acquiring Idealism Points through constant feeding and fighting.

With Idealism Points, one could keep growing, evolving.

Of course, it was much more complex than ’Spore’, because the "food" types were extremely diverse, ranging from simple "information," to human and animal "emotions," to "broken souls," "corpses," and other similar creatures within the Etheric Abyss.

Each type of food yielded different Idealism Points. Often it required a fight to obtain food.

In this harsh environment, one had to evolve so-called "Superpowers" to survive, and these abilities were linked to what one consumed.

But once one had evolved an "ability," it then restricted you, making movement inconvenient—essentially, becoming "set in one’s ways."

This setup was very reminiscent of the bizarre creatures encountered in various game scenarios.

...

An hour later, a "ding" and a flash of light sparked across the screen, bringing up an interface.

An ugly black-skinned child, baring its teeth in a grimace at Old Wang.

"Congratulations, you have evolved into a Ghoul!"

[Ghoul]

[Physique: 10]

[Spiritual Strength: 1520]

[Introduction: A weak, rare monster existing in the shallow layers of the Etheric Abyss, known for its supernatural stealth, Rapid Flight, and Wall-penetrating Skill, possessing a relatively high animalistic Wisdom.]

[Ghouls enjoy playing pranks and scare people by various means to feed on the atmosphere’s fear emotions. But they dislike being seen, and being discovered means they slowly lose Vitality until they completely vanish.]

[Evaluation: Inferior.]

"Gah?" Wang Hao exclaimed, staring at the ugly child, scratching his head.

In this Reincarnation, he had been quite cautious, running from strong enemies and scavenging trash for food to survive, choosing stealth abilities.

And he evolved into a Ghoul!

"I feel like I’ve seen this thing somewhere before..." Wang Hao removed his helmet and searched the internet.

The Ghoul had some mentions in folklore in some places, and it even had another nickname, the "Fart-follower."

Of course, the Ghoul might evolve further, but the subsequent content was not yet produced.

Just as he was about to start again, another line of text popped up.

"Do you want to spend 100 points for a ten-consecutive draw to obtain a better Innate Race Talent?"

"More money! No way, start directly."

"This mini-game is quite interesting! I’ll rely on you to get through the long wait for updates."

...

Ding, "You have evolved into an Inferior Demon. Evaluation: Inferior."

Ding, "You have evolved into a Lesser Ghoul. Evaluation: Inferior."

Ding, "You have evolved into a Lower-class Crawler. Evaluation: Inferior."

This series of "Inferiors," "Lowers," and "Lessers" got Old Wang worked up and frustrated. This mini-game was indeed addictive, but it seemed a bit difficult, huh?

Eventually, he couldn’t resist the temptation and spent 100 points for a ten-consecutive draw.

Suddenly, a variety of golden and purple Talents appeared, and to his good fortune, there was even a double-up.

Wang Hao muttered to himself, "I didn’t spend any money on the official game, but now I’m spending money on a mini-game."

He played with great enthusiasm.
