Section 3532 Character Card

408 nodded sheepishly: "Yes, I also have my own ability products. However, the effects of my ability products are not that special."

Angel asked with interest: "Can you tell us more?"

408 hesitated for a moment, then reached into the pouch at her waist. After a few seconds, she took out a small booklet from the pouch and handed it to Angel.

"What is recorded here is the product of my ability."

Angel lowered his head and looked at the book.

There are no text marks on the outside of the thin book, and it is completely in a pure white style shell.

After opening it, I found that the inside of the thin volume was not book pages, but transparent films arranged neatly one by one.

Kind of like a photo album.

However, what was contained in the film was not photos, but rectangular cards one after another.

So, this is...a card collection?

Angel was guessing in his mind while looking at the card inside.

If nothing unexpected happens, these cards should be related to the products of 408's abilities.

However, when Angel finished looking at a few cards, his expression was confused.

This is...what?

The cards are a bit like tarot cards, with gorgeous arabesque patterns on the back and individual characters on the front.

For example, the four cards on the first page are:

"Praying Holy Nun": A girl in a holy dress holding her chest and praying silently. The bright sunshine outlines the girl's outline with a brilliant golden edge.

"Cunning Businessman": In the corner of a magnificent shop, the wretched green-skinned Lu Xiu stood in the shadows, silently rubbing his hands and looking at the visitors in the shop with a sinister smile.

"The counselor who sows dissension": The dark-skinned man smiled and admonished the king on the throne. The king nodded repeatedly, but the king did not notice that there was a second face behind the dark-skinned man, and this face No longer smiling, but cold and cruel.

"The Queen who looks down on the world": The Queen, wearing luxurious clothes and a bright crown on her head, sits on a high-backed throne, her lowered eyes flashing with purple light, as if she is looking down on all living beings.

The decks of these four cards are all very well made.

Just from the face of the card, you can get a glimpse of the rich heart of the character.

However, Angel still hasn't figured out what's so special about these four cards?

He could only vaguely sense that there seemed to be a stream of consciousness in the card, but he was still at a loss as to what use this stream of consciousness had in the card.

Angel: "Is there anything special about these cards?"

"Actually, it's not special." 408 said with some confusion: "These cards only allow those who come into contact to play the corresponding roles on the cards. They are a tool to assist in acting."

"Acting?" Angel was stunned. Is this well-made card just used to assist acting?

Angel originally thought that different cards have different abilities: for example, "Praying Holy Nun" can heal, "Cunning Businessman" can improve wealth...

In the end, it was just acting?

Seeing Angel stunned, 408 thought that he didn't understand what he meant, so he said: "The specific effect is difficult to understand with empty explanations. Guests may wish to try it for themselves."

"Can you try?"

Four Hundred and Eight nodded: "As long as you take out the card and put it in your hand, you can feel the corresponding effect."

Angel thought for a while and decided to give it a try.

Even if it's just to assist in acting, he still wants to see the specific effect.

His hand subconsciously reached for the card "Strategist Who Sows Discord" because this was the only man among the four cards on the first page who looked similar to a human. ——Although he looks black, at least his gender has not changed.

However, just when he was about to touch the strategist card, he suddenly paused.

He looked towards the "cunning businessman".

Since it is an auxiliary acting role, it seems too bland to take a role that suits me. If you want to experience it, you must experience a role that is in contrast to yourself.

For example, non-human groups.

Angel thought of this and took out the "Cunning Businessman" card.

Just when it was holding the "Cunning Businessman" card, a strange stream of consciousness wave was transmitted from the card, forming a strange logical closed loop.

This logical closed loop is not at the level of consciousness, but directly centered on Angel, covering his whole body.

It's like a coating.

Apart from the coating, if someone looks at Angel at this time, they will clearly feel a sense of obscenity and sinisterness, just like when they see the profiteer Pilusi, making people feel disgusted involuntarily.

Angel, who was within the coating, had various images flashing in his mind, showing the various villainous behaviors of the Pilusi merchants.

These scenes were not memories and would not remain in his mind. They only made him realize the various despicable behaviors of Pilusiu when he was doing business.

So, is this a behavioral hint and a coating of aura to assist in entering the character?

While Angel was guessing, the sound of 408 suddenly came to his ears.

"Boss, can I buy this button of yours?"

Angel looked up and found 408 looking at him timidly, pointing to a button on his chest and asked.

Angel subconsciously wanted to ask, what are you doing?

However, just when he was about to speak, the "logical closed loop" around him seemed to sense certain keywords and activated them on its own.

Then, several choices of actions emerged in Angel's mind.

If everything that happened now was regarded as a "game", Angel would have many choices in front of him at this time.

"Choice 1: What are you doing?"

"Option 2: When you determine that the guest is a fat sheep and his strength is lower/higher than yours, you can choose plan A/B..."

"Choice 3: When you judge that the guest is a poor man, you can choose..."

"Option 4: When you cannot intuitively judge whether the customer has a lot of money or not, you can use A/B/C methods and words to test the other party's background, and then make a choice..."

"Choice 5:..."

Except for the first choice, which was Angel's own subconscious judgment, all the remaining choices were options given by the "logical closed loop".

Moreover, these options perfectly fit Pilusi's identity as a profiteer.

Even different options will show different expressions, smiles and behaviors.

When he sensed the "choice" brought by the logical closed loop, Angel immediately understood that 408 suddenly said that he wanted to buy buttons, which was actually helping him understand the interpretation of the role of profiteer.

And Angel finally understood at this time that the auxiliary acting of these cards turned out to have this effect.

As long as the keyword is triggered, you can directly "play" the previous paragraph.

Moreover, it can be performed vividly without leaving any trace.

Angel thought for a while and put the "Cunning Businessman" in his hand back into the card album.

He roughly understands the effect of the card and doesn't need to continue trying the card.

And he also wants to know, when the card is put back, will he be affected by the role of Pilusi's profiteer?

After the card returned to the card collection, the "character coating" on Angel's body disappeared, and the surrounding logical closed loop also dissipated.

Angel didn't feel anything at all.

The only thing the character card brought him was some inertia about the behavior of Pilu Xiu's profiteer.

It can be roughly understood that the next time Angel encounters the profiteer Pilu Xiu, some of the other party's eyes and small movements will allow Angel to judge whether it intends to deceive him.

Other than that, any memory related to Pilusi does not exist.

It can be said that character cards are really just to assist in acting, and will not change a person's personality, nor will they create additional characters' memories out of thin air.

Judging from the current situation, Angel thinks it is very good that it will not be affected by memory.

But if Angel looks at it from a more rational and objective perspective, he actually prefers that it may be better to retain the memory of the character.

You can use memory to further understand the character's behavioral logic.

However, since 408 did not choose to retain her memory, she must have her reasons. Perhaps retaining memories may cause memory congestion and behavioral disorders?

Angel asked about his guess.

408 shook his head: "For extraordinary people, this little memory will not cause memory congestion and behavioral disorders. However, for ordinary people, it may have a big impact. The extra memory It may make them unable to distinguish between reality and fiction.”

At this point, 408 sighed helplessly: "After all, the audience for these character cards of mine is only ordinary people. I must consider the needs of ordinary people."

Angel heard the implication of 408: "So, you think these character cards have no meaning to extraordinary people?"

Four Hundred and Eight nodded: "It's very easy for a transcendent to play a role. There's no need for these cards at all."

"Moreover, these cards of mine can only allow people to play other roles, and they will not gain any benefits from it. They are only suitable for actors."

Extraordinary people who want to be actors don't need these cards.

Therefore, 408 targets its audience for these cards at ordinary people and newcomers who have recently come into contact with the extraordinary.

Angel actually didn't agree with 408's idea.

He has personally experienced these cards. He feels that these cards are very interesting "bases". At first glance, they seem to be just used to assist acting. But if there are some special needs, it can transform into a tall building and instantly break through the sky.

To put it simply, Angel believes that this kind of card has potential.

But Angel has not yet been able to judge how much potential this potential stock has...

Angel thought for a while and decided not to make an evaluation yet, but continued to look through the thin book in his hand. He wanted to see what kind of character cards there were.

There are eight cards in total on the second and third pages.

They are all different professions, such as students, scholars, poets, musicians...

If Luigi were here, he would probably be interested in poets and musicians. However, Angel personally feels that these card characters have no newer ideas than those on the first page.

Keep turning the pages, page 4, page 5, page 6...

"Desperate Housewife": A woman who is extremely depressed and completely despairing. She lies on the ground lifelessly like a corpse. Behind it are the accusations of men and the crying of children.

"A man with a woman's heart": The only man sitting at the tea party. He was wearing a tight suit and silently looked at the ladies wearing beautiful and luxurious skirts around him. There was envy, melancholy, and silent self-confidence in his eyes. pity.

"The Good Man Who Killed in Anger": A man was dazed in the corner, with a corpse of a gangster beside him. There were crowds of people around him, many of whom had been helped by the man, but now they all stared at the man with disgust and mockery.

"The Rebel Who Was Convicted": ...

"The Criminal on a Rainy Night": ...

As the cards got further back, they began to touch on human relations and social classes.

If these characters were put on the stage of a drama, they would definitely have a great impact and bring shocking character interpretations to the audience.

However, Angel still did not see too many surprises from these cards.

Because these cards were still confined to the identity of "actors", these role cards were far from enough to break through the potential limitations of the cards.

When Angel turned to the last page, his eyes were attracted by a card.

The card surface of this card was a bright starry sky. No "characters" or "roles" could be seen.

The only special thing is that in the center of this starry sky, there is a comet with a long tail, passing through the starry sky curtain.

And the name of this card is: "UFO Traveler".

This is not the first time that Angel has heard of the UFO. It is not a planet, but a mirror located in the Daytime Mirror Domain.

Similar to Mirror Mountain and Ice Country, it is the place where a tribe lives.

And this tribe is called: Kaka Clan.

They look like bright stars, but in fact, they are some kind of gaseous polymer, belonging to... gaseous life.

So, the protagonist of the card "UFO Traveler" is actually the comet, which is the traveler of the Kaka Clan?

Angel hesitated for a moment and asked 408: "Can I touch this card?"

408 hesitated for two seconds: "Yes, I can, but I haven't finished making this card yet. It is a semi-finished product. There is no special effect."

Angel tried to touch the card with his hand. Sure enough, as 408 said, there was no sense of the rhythm of "entering the play".

However, although this card did not allow Angel to realize the logical closed loop of "UFO Traveler", it allowed Angel to see a completely different side from the previous cards.

All the previous cards were actually groups with bodies. Although their identities and occupations were different, they were all ordinary people from various groups.

But this card was different.

It was another form of life, and the Kaka family was born extraordinary.

There was no "ordinary life" defined by the public within the Kaka family. Even though many of the extraordinary people were at the same level as junior apprentices, they were all extraordinary people anyway.

It was completely different from the identities of the ordinary classes before.

The new life form and the extraordinary people, the combination of the two, was what Angel saw...

Potential!
