When I write a bug it becomes the core gameplay.

Chapter 453: How to get a good ending?

How can I get a good ending?
Obviously, apart from the brute force method of unpacking, we can only start from the existing game plot and make reasonable guesses.

In fact, for those who are good at unpacking, as long as they are willing, they can find the corresponding unlocking method of the plot after continuous deep digging, but these people generally do not choose to do so.

You unpack the package and give the standard answer directly, so what else are the players playing for?
Isn’t this a spoiler?
Therefore, those who unpacked the game were afraid of being attacked, so they dared not reveal all the endings directly. They could only tell everyone that there were five different endings based on what they saw, but they had to keep the specific endings secret as much as possible.

In addition, players have a channel to learn the names of these endings.

That is the achievement system of the game itself.

From the unlocked achievements of Blood of Lies, in addition to the two bad endings of "Ancient God's Familiar" and "Lost Heart Doll", the other three endings are:

"Slaughter of God", "Heart of Freedom" and "I Am God".

Players simply call it the "God-killing Ending", the "Freedom Ending" and the "Becoming a God Ending".

With the guidance of these three names, players can roughly guess the plots of these endings.

The ending of the God-Slaying game should be that the last invisible ancient god can be killed, and he no longer needs to become his follower.

The ending of becoming a god goes a step further, and it seems that one can replace the previous god and become the new god?
As for what the free ending is specifically, it's a bit broad, but most players think it should be a good ending corresponding to the "Lost Heart Ending", that is, although the player is a puppet, he has gained freedom and is not controlled by the puppet craftsman?
Well, that makes sense.

With these three good endings hanging like carrots in front of them, players started to become active again, and began to work hard like diligent donkeys, oh no, to suffer.

……

"Damn it, these losers, I've worked so hard but I still can't catch up with them.

“But with this group of people helping me with trial and error, I don’t have to rush to get to the end. I can enjoy it more and observe the details of the game.

“…Speaking of which, where is the fun in this game?”

Zhuge Jun couldn't help but complain.

Although he wanted to avoid spoilers these two days, he had too much free time. It was easy for him to see spoilers about "Blood of Lies" while eating or before going to bed. He really couldn't control his curiosity and still roughly knew the ending of the game.

But this does have its advantages, at least he is not in a hurry to pass the level.

If Zhuge Jun was as anxious to clear the level as everyone else, it goes without saying that he would get the "Dependent Ending" and there would be no other possibility.

But now, he doesn't have to worry.

Since the ending is always bad, why not look for more details during the game and try to figure out how to get a good ending? Maybe you can get a good ending earlier than others?
“From the current situation, there are three ancient gods in this game that are directly related to the main storyline.

"Then this invisible ancient god seems to be very similar to the Old One Sasra, who represents the stars and is worshipped by the Starry Sky School. The authority it corresponds to seems to be 'spiritual vision', which has the characteristic of having no specific form. It is also the source of the madness of the tragic events of the Starry Sky School.

“Then Ilonak corresponds to the Deep Sea School and the Healing Church?

“It seems that the third ancient god’s name is still unknown, but it seems to be the object of worship of the Eternal School and the Moon School.

"Wait, it was the Eternal School that was conducting a forbidden experiment, but the one that was invited was not the third mysterious ancient god, but Sasla, who was worshipped by the Starry Sky School? Is it because the Eternal School wore a birdcage when they were doing it?"

Zhuge Jun has been playing the game for so long that he has collected quite a bit of in-game information.

Whether it is the Healing Church famous for its blood therapy, or the Deep Sea School that originally worshipped Ilonak and was the first to obtain the remains of the ancient god and thus established a huge church, or the relevant information of the Eternal School and the Moon School obtained after going deep into the underground mines, they are actually further supplementing the worldview of "Blood of Lies".

The contents are intricate and the plots are severely fragmented. If you don't piece them together carefully, it's actually very easy to get confused.

For example, many players think that there is only one ancient god, the one worshipped in the cathedral, but that is not the case.

After sorting out the timeline, it is easy to find that the research on crystals and unclean blood is actually constantly advancing, and the ancient gods believed and worshipped by humans are not the same.

Since the discovery of the unclean blood and the worship of gods in the ruins, scholars in Charlton City have begun research.

Among them, the Starry Sky School is also known as the Original School. They are the earliest group of people who studied the ancient gods, and can also be regarded as fundamentalists who are in the same line of knowledge as the relics.

The god they worship is Sasla, the old ruler of the stars. The specific method is to continuously improve spiritual vision, including exploring eyes and vision, wearing a birdcage-like device on themselves, etc. However, this method caused some disasters, so related research stagnated.

At this time, the remains of the ancient god were found on the seashore of Charlton City, so these sects hurriedly brought it back for research. Many scholars believed that the remains of the ancient god belonged to Sasla, but in fact, it did not belong to Ilonak, the ruler of the deep sea. As a result, the school split, and the Deep Sea School and the Healing Church appeared.

Because the remains of Ilonak contain the well-preserved blood of the ancient gods, and the effect of blood therapy is excellent, the belief in Ilonak has become the mainstream in the entire city of Charlton. The magnificent cathedral and the huge healing church are actually the products of the belief in Ilonak.

As for the third ancient god, there are actually not many signs of his existence so far. We can only vaguely infer from some descriptions of the School of Eternity and the School of the Moon that it is different from the previous two.

Because the characteristics of this ancient god are obviously different from the previous two.

The star Sasra represents the authority of clairvoyance. Just being looked at by him will drive one directly into madness. Of course, it is also possible to gain very terrifying knowledge.

The Deep Sea Ilonak represents the authority of flesh and blood. He has a body of infinite power, and his flesh and blood itself has a magnificent vitality.

As for the third ancient god believed in by the Eternal School and the Moon School, he does not seem to possess the abilities of the first two, but has the ability to create illusions. The incomplete heart of the ancient god produced by the flesh and blood construct seems to be inextricably linked to it.

After summarizing this information, Zhuge Jun felt a little overwhelmed.

There is no way to do this, because similar mythological stories are inherently confusing, with more than a dozen ancient gods often playing big games in a small town.

In this game, the production team was very considerate and reduced the number to three ancient gods, which was already quite respectful.

But at least this temporarily solves the question that Zhuge Jun had before, why was the player killed by the plot of Sassara just after he defeated Ilonak?
It looks like he has no ability to fight back.

The reason is not difficult to guess, because the powers held by these two ancient gods are originally different.

If the game starts as a human, the player keeps lying and increasing his clairvoyance, and by the time he defeats the final boss, he is basically in a state that is more restrained against Ilonak.

Because Ilonak's authority is flesh and blood, it's just that his vitality is a little stronger, and players can effectively attack his weaknesses after their spiritual vision is improved.

But Sasla himself holds the power of clairvoyance, and the player happens to have points added to clairvoyance. Isn't this a case of "Who in the court is suing me?"
If it is the puppet route, there is no clairvoyance at all, so you will not be controlled by Sassara.

"Based on the current situation, if we want to reasonably infer that these two bad endings can be turned into good endings, the key is to find a way to defeat the ancient god Sasla and the puppet craftsman Jim.

“It’s unclear how to deal with Jim, that’s something the player who started the game with the puppet should consider.

“If I start as a human, it will be difficult for me to use the psychic vision route and defeat Sasla who holds the power of psychic vision at the same time.

“Wait, maybe there is a mutual restraint relationship between these ancient gods?
“How did the players lure Ilonak to come?

"It is a broken heart of an ancient god constructed with flesh and blood. In other words, this broken heart of an ancient god is a kind of tonic for Ilonak.

“And Ilonak himself was restrained by Sassara.

"Assuming these two points are true, does that mean that the third mysterious ancient god has the ability to create illusions and control minds, and can just restrain Sasla's spiritual vision?"

Zhuge Jun was not sure whether his inference was reliable, but according to common sense, if he wanted to defeat the ancient gods, he must first possess authority of almost the same level as the ancient gods.

It would be impossible to obtain the authority of Sasla and Ilonak, so the only way to find the answer is from this mysterious third ancient god.

This third ancient god is the ancient god sought after by the Eternal School and the Moon School.

Zhuge Jun looked through the information again and found that the Eternal School and the Moon School were not the same thing.

Many schools in this game actually have different names. For example, the Starry Sky School is the first to appear, so it is also called the Original School. The two are the same thing; and the Deep Sea School and the Healing Church are inextricably linked.

So Zhuge Jun also thought at the beginning that the Eternal School and the Moon School were the same thing.

But upon closer inspection, it is discovered that not only are the two not the same thing, but they are actually in a hostile relationship.

The Eternal School is the crazy school that is always causing trouble in the game. On the surface, they worship the mysterious third ancient god, but in fact, they provoke everyone and have also tried to establish connections with the two ancient gods, Sasla and Ilonak.

The School of the Moon is a small branch that split from the School of Eternity. Their beliefs are relatively pure, and they basically only believe in this mysterious ancient god.

"So, if we want to further search for this ancient god, we should start from the mysterious Moon School, right?"

Zhuge Jun scratched his head, trying hard to recall the various clues he encountered in the game.
