Another city,

A narrow and dirty basement with turbid air, a computer desk filled with all kinds of miscellaneous things.

The mule with a scattered hair frowned slightly and looked at the chat box of friends in her sight.

"Born the Southern King..."

The intelligence broker scratched his hair. At this moment, the mule's body was covered with all kinds of extraordinary items.

Jade bracelets, metal necklaces, stone rings, wooden statues...

These items are defensive props.

It has physical defense and is automatically transmitted when it is damaged.

There are also props that can defend against various damages at the spiritual level.

The mule thought about it carefully, "All the information costs thirty game coins, you can give it twenty first."

"good."

Li Ang didn't say nonsense and transferred the rewards.

Fifteen minutes later, the mule sent a few documents, with complex and detailed contents.

Including and not limited to post chat history,

Personal information of netizens participating in the chat,

Before being discovered and taken away by the Special Municipal Bureau, netizens' speech records on other social platforms,

Meme delivery concept diagram...

Li Angzai carefully looked at these documents and unexpectedly discovered a fact.

The King of Nan was originally just made up.

The poster clearly explained to his friends on other social platforms that the whole story is purely a dream.

There was no nightmare at all to give birth to the King of Southern.

In addition, those netizens who claimed that they had also had similar dreams under the post,

Or follow the clamor,

Or you can graft the elements about the birth of the Southern King into the vague nightmare in your own memory and respond to others.

It is not an abnormal event to be born in the South.

Netizens who are just keen on urban legends spontaneously promote the carnival together.

Because the post contains some classic elements that constitute urban legends (suspense, thriller, multiple witness proofs),

Through the netizens' contributions, it becomes a story that is interesting enough to be created by a second time.

At the same time, the vague words of netizens when they spread again also added a hint of mystery to this story, prompting more people to actively explore out of curiosity.

In the end, the story of King Sheng Nan became a freshly released man-made legend.

If things only stay at this point, then the King of the South will at most become a well-known thriller story like the thin black shadow in the United States.

More likely, it will disappear.

Or become a recognized meme that some urban legend lovers can smile knowingly after hearing it.

But now, the whole thing has become an abnormal event.

Many ordinary people have symptoms of meme contamination.

Some netizens who participated in the discussion have been summoned to the base by the Special Affairs Bureau for investigation.

Li Ang pondered for a moment and asked the mule: "Apart from me, are there any players who buy relevant information from you?"

“…”

The mule did not answer immediately, and was silent for a moment before answering: "Yes, there are a lot of people."

A lot of numbers?

Li Ang frowned, "From the meme delivery concept map, there are only a few thousand people who are contaminated by level 4 or even level 5 memes, right?

Even less than 10,000 people, the impact range is too small.

And this abnormal meme is not harmful yet.”

“At present, there is no harm.”

The mule replied: "But you should also know the saying of mind power, right?

Many occult scholars believe that, ‘As some stories become real as more and more people believe in them, false things will become real things because of the accumulation of human mind power.’

This statement actually makes some sense to eliminate the primate arrogance hidden inside.

Because the power of thought is the power of faith.

Some anomalies can only continue to exist by relying on people to believe in it.”

Li Ang was stunned when he heard this and subconsciously thought of a real case on the player forum.

A month ago, an abnormal incident occurred on a small island in the South Pacific, when a bird destroyed an American passenger plane flying near the island.

In terms of appearance, this bird is no different from the gray gulls widely distributed in the South Pacific - the only difference is that this gray gull is too big, with a wingspan of 500 meters.

The Global Supernatural Alliance blocked the news immediately and launched an investigation into it.

However, the fighter planes they flew over were shot down by the giant gray gull without exception. All the artificial weapons seemed to be unable to cause fatal damage to the gray gull - fortunately, the giant bird only lived around the island.

Finally, the Global Supernatural Alliance relied on two agents who snorkeled up the island to convey important information.

More than a month ago, a plague broke out in the isolated indigenous tribe of the island, killing the tribe's shamans and a large number of residents in a very short time.

Then some residents discovered the abnormality.

Huge figures of birds appeared in the mountains and forests, waiting for an opportunity to hunt down the indigenous people who entered the deep mountains alone.

As the disease spreads, the number of residents decreases, and the gray gulls become larger and larger. In the end, they can even ignore the spears, bows and arrows of tribal warriors and fly to the village to hunt humans.

The remaining indigenous people can only hide in every corner of the island, trying their best to avoid being discovered by giant gray gulls.

After investigation, the Global Supernatural Alliance discovered the murals of countless generations of tribal shamans left in caves.

According to the information on the mural,

When the shamans first boarded the island a thousand years ago, they discovered grey gulls that were so huge that they covered the sky.

They feared the bird and used a special means to seal its power, making it extremely small, no different from ordinary gray gulls.

As long as the more people believe that the Grey Gull exists, the more people will spread the story of Grey Gull.

The power of this gray gull will be imprisoned forever.

On the contrary, if there are fewer people who remember the essence of the gray gull, the size of the gray gull will become larger and larger, and even return to the appearance of a thousand years ago, covering the sky and the sun.

At the beginning, the Global Supernatural Alliance was unwilling to believe it.

A mere indigenous tribe with less than a thousand people was able to interfere with the abnormal monster with a wingspan of 500 meters, and even confronted it through beliefs and bound it.

This is completely inconsistent with any logic.

But belief is such a thing that does not conform to conventional logic.

At the end of the matter, the Global Supernatural Alliance still found a way to solve the gray gull and contained it.

The method of shelter is to find some indigenous residents from a distant island.

Through the mystical rituals,

Let those indigenous people become indigenous people on the island and tell them the nature of the grey gull - this practice worked, the grey gull quickly shrank, and finally turned into a regular seabird,

He was detained in a stronghold established on the island by the Global Supernatural Alliance.

"Only by believing, you can exist."

The mule sent a message and said: "As a purely fictional urban legend, the King of Shengnan has become an abnormal event. I can't tell you the final direction of this matter..."

Li Ang looked at the chat box hanging in his sight, squinted his eyes, and tapped the desktop with his knuckles.

This is strange. As an intelligence broker, mule usually doesn't say so much to customers - he is not a game for an hour and one hundred yuan a day.

Maybe the mule is afraid...

Li Ang’s eyes lit up and he sent a question that was a little out of bounds in the past.

"What do they want to do if those who bought the information of the King of Shengnan from you?"

After sending the question, the chat box was silent for a long time, and finally a line of words appeared.

"This is somewhat incompatible with the professional ethics of intelligence brokers... Forget it,

Some players seem to think that they may be able to use the King of the South.

Or, enter the dream of King Shengnan and trigger an abnormal event,

Or, it will take away the huge amount of thought that gave birth to the birth of the Southern King,

Or, directly hold Shengnan Wang himself hostage..."

The mule sent a message and immediately added with some regret: "I shouldn't have said so much,

There are many people who are eyeing the birth of the Southern King, and in addition to the lonely wolf, there are many secret organizations.

I can't guess what their plans are."

Li Ang frowned, "Why tell me this?"

"You are also infected with abnormal memes, aren't you?"

The mule said bluntly: "At the beginning of the incident of Shengnan King, I, who specializes in collecting various information, was already contaminated with memes.

As an intelligence dealer, I see more things than ordinary players.

The power of belief cannot be explained by logic, cannot be conceived, cannot be speculated,

In my opinion, those who try to understand the abnormality that they cannot understand are completely self-destructive.

Instead of letting them interfere with the abnormal memes on their own and finally affecting me,

It would be better to tell you this smart man, more information - maybe this can add a little bit of vitality to me.

By the way, the above content will not be charged again.”

Let's talk, Mule ended the friend's communication, leaving Li Ang alone, staring at the computer screen where the boring variety show was playing.

Suddenly, the system prompted the sound.
