072. As the price to resurrect her
What does it take to resurrect a person?
From ancient times, human beings have understood the irreversibility of life and death, and countless myths, fairy tales, fables, and legends have been born for this reason.
Philosopher's stone, vampires, zombies, ghosts; heaven, underworld, western bliss; undead, lich, undead...
Almost the majority of them work on corpses and souls.
After a person dies, the body's functions first stop functioning, and then the soul dissipates or goes to various places for reincarnation and enjoyment.
Depending on the rules of life and death, different worlds will have different resurrection techniques and methods of countering the rules, such as cheating bugs, using powerful power to carry them to death, or praying to the gods who manage life and death...
But the world Xingji is in now is different. The life and death mechanism of this world is very simple.
Death is death, the soul will dissipate quickly, and the body will rot quickly. There is no underworld, no bliss, and no kingdom of God.
A simple yet cruel world view of materialism and technological supremacy.
Nowadays, these people with supernatural powers have all traveled from other worlds. None of them have similar abilities, and it is impossible to bring the natural system of another world with them.
Therefore, if you want to resurrect a person in this world, and it is an ordinary person who has not saved [existence video information] in advance, then you must reverse the time rules at the bottom of the world and cut off the deceased person's connection with the world at the moment before his death.
Everything is cause and effect. Then go back to the correct point in time and reconnect the connection.
It’s simply [Reversal of the World] that’s even more extreme than [Subversion of the World], isn’t it?
[Gaia Consciousness] If you know Xingke’s thoughts, you will definitely remember to jump up and speak.
However, this time we are not going to stage such a big show of "reversing the world" in the main world, but we are going to do some tricks in the separated small parallel world.
For example, in setting the rules of the world, canceling the gap between life and death.
It's a bit like the [Netherworld] in myths and legends - the place between life and death, isn't it?
Anyway, it is only the size of an area in Tokyo, and Xingke himself will become the absolute master of that place, and he can play however he wants.
As long as a copy of the historical information at the bottom of the world is made, who dares to say that the moment in the parallel world is not a moment?
Originally, if the relationship between Brother Sa Tai and Altair was closer, Xingke wouldn't have to be so troublesome.
Just ask Mr. Sa Tai to activate the protagonist's exclusive skill - verbal cannon, and you can kill Altair and make her change her ways and give up her obsession with destroying the world.
After all, there is no telling who is right or wrong in this matter. There are many reasons that led to the final result.
The people around you, the people you are related to, the people watching you, there are really not many people who are innocent. For this kind of complex human subjective ethical issue, there are a thousand different views in the eyes of a thousand people.
Objective and absolutely fair judgment does not exist. At least not in the human world.
So Altair ended up blaming the world.
When you are not sure that the [individual] is your enemy, you will naturally put your hatred on the [whole] of the [world] or the [collective] of [humanity].
However, Altair does not know the existence of [Gaia Consciousness] - that is truly a disaster.
[Gaia Consciousness] I really want to express that I am wronged.
If she knows what happened and still has feelings.
"...Does Mr. Guise need anything from me?"
"Now I am going to a group of animation workers, commonly known as industry insiders, to ask them to change the settings.
Moreover, the animation production has just got on the right track, and the character design and main story line have been finalized now.
Do you understand what I say?"
"...!"
As expected, he was the seed of half an industry insider. He understood the truth in a short time, and then his face was full of horror.
"Not only does the setting of the world view need to be changed, but a new character setting must also be added gradually - [Setsuna Shimazaki]. And this job is yours alone.
After all, the person closest to Setsuna Shimazaki's heart may not be her parents who know nothing about their daughter's interests, but a friend who is acquainted with her interests, that is, you."
He did not deny what Xing Ke said. It seemed that Sa Tai was still very confident in the friendship between himself and Setsuna. However, he became more concerned about another piece of information revealed by Xing Ke.
"But didn't you just say that production is on track?"
"yes."
Xingji, who had an indifferent expression on his face, easily answered in the affirmative.
"Isn't it a very bad situation now? Wouldn't it be very difficult to change the settings at this time?"
Sa Tai's expression now turned into one of great embarrassment, and she didn't know what to say.
"Haha, don't worry. I'm not a layman who doesn't know anything but only what to ask for. The deadline I gave them at the beginning is actually a huge reduction in the later dates."
Xingke is not a novice who doesn't understand the industry at all, so he told a terrible fact with a smile on his face.
"..."
Sa Tai could only be speechless about this, but her face became much more relaxed.
"Furthermore, I will give overtime pay and logistics work in cash according to Guojia's budget level, tax-free. If not, I will just double it."
"..."
Anyway, Neon's treasury currently has a lot of liquidity, so it's okay to reduce the budget of the land-based team.
It's better to let them not move around when they are full.
"If they can't meet the deadline, then I can only use some means to make them draw until they vomit blood."
"..."
This guy inadvertently said something terrible again with a smile on his face.
"Professional painters, professional writers, everyone is here. If you want to be a member of this industry in the future, don't underestimate the people in the industry, kid."
Saying this, Xingke's smile also faded a little. After all, now is the time when the seniors are educating the younger ones.
"yes……"
In fact, what Xing Ke said was also his own experience in a certain life.
In the entertainment, media, and creative industries, popularity is a yardstick to measure your success. In fact, the difference between good and bad reputation is not much different.
Especially in the creative industry, work may seem extremely easy to a third party, and working hours are also free.
But that is actually a huge misunderstanding. The only profession that can compete with programmers is designers, who are writers.
Except for some idol writers.
This means that everyone is a poor literati who has accumulated little by little from the unknown. Without the consciousness of vomiting blood and liver, he will not be able to achieve a little fame. This has nothing to do with whether he has talent or not.
Compared with the warrior's awareness of preparing for his death before taking the stage, the courage of the scholar just values long-term persistence more.
"How should I put it? This is an opportunity for you to work with big names in the industry. An opportunity that ordinary people can't get even if they work hard. By the way, the father and son of the Miyazaki family are both
I have been invited to the scene."
After seeing that Sa Tai was just one step away from being willing to do so, Xingji appropriately offered the temptation of "candy".
"...I would like to ask for your advice in future work."
"Welcome to NHK, Brother Sa Tai."
