Vol 2 Chapter 8: Housekeeper Z 2333's popular science

Little Z responded: "Actually, the counterattack here is divided into two situations. The first is the commissioned tasks you are currently receiving. When certain conditions are met, the soul of the commissioner can return to his body again. ……another situation……"
Qingu heard what the other party said, and couldn't help saying: "Oh, I see, what you mean is that those who only need to spend a few soul stones or use their own souls to counterattack, their souls cannot be recovered. Into your own body?"
　　 The little tail on Little Z's head nodded again, "You are half right. In fact, there is a clear boundary between the two situations."
　　 "......?"
"Presumably you had also seen the leaflets distributed by those firms at the time, as well as the formatted contract. The above only said that the wishes of the client were fulfilled. To put it bluntly, it was just to reassure them and make their souls no longer full of It's just resentment."
　　Qingu nodded, recalling the leaflets he got at that time, it was indeed the case.
　　 Little Z: "For all native souls, the ten soul spirit stones after death are a watershed."
　　 "Generally speaking, if there are less than ten Soul Spirit Stones, it means that there is a loss in the original world. If it exceeds ten, it means that there is more merit than demerit."
"So, if the original soul's soul stone is redundant or equal to ten, under normal circumstances, they will not be allowed to fly ashes and annihilate and consume all their energy to dissipate in this world. The format contracts of those firms are actually not real Enter the client’s world and counterattack..."
Qin Gu said in surprise: "What, you, you mean... the tasker does not need to enter the body of the delegator, nor the world of the delegator? Then, how do you counterattack their lives? Is it to let the delegate Do you go in by yourself?"
The little tail on top of Little Z's head shook: "Let them return to their own life and small world? Of course it is impossible. First of all, time travel is a big expense, if the distance is far, it is only space travel. It’s about the energy of a hundred soul spirit stones. Besides, those who had suffered a loss to the world in their original life, and entered again with resentment and unwillingness, what do you think? I’m afraid not only the people around him/her, Even the whole world will be tossed with restlessness..."
Qingu: "Yes, but... I see some souls who say they can be taskers of the firm... In that case, they have become taskers and can counterattack other people's lives. Why can't they enter their bodies for themselves? How about his life counterattack?"
　　 Xiao Z is an intellectual brain after all, and he takes the trouble to answer Qingu's tireless questions.
Replied: "This is just a superficial thing. In fact, if you want to become a task person, you must sign a soul contract. If you violate any of the above clauses in the task, or fail to complete the task, or lose money in the task, Yuan Ling will Will go directly to the firm."
　　 "In short, flying ash is annihilated."
　　 "Hiss" Qin Gu took a breath.
　　Qingu was the first time I heard that the firm would directly swallow the source spirits of those contracts, causing a chill inexplicably.
　　 She couldn't help but think of herself, if she couldn't complete the mission, or suffered a loss... Is it also going to be swallowed by the space-time cabin?
　　 She subconsciously glanced at the dilapidated but inexplicably intimacy hut, and she shuddered.
Little Z felt like what Qin Gu was thinking at this time, "...If you can’t complete the task or lose money, and it’s not your turn to devour the soul in the space-time cabin, you will dissipate directly in the small sky of the client...because of you I can't come back at all."
　　 is like the last shopkeeper.
　　 Alas, thinking of the last shopkeeper, Little Z sighed for a while.
　　 For a while, he was emotional, and turned out to be an enemy of the world for one person.
　　In the end, because of too much debt, even if all the previous soul stones were exhausted, it would not be able to make up. In the end, his soul was scattered in the sky during that hour.
　　 so that the space-time hut almost fell apart in the end...
　　Qingu said again: "Then...for those souls with very high spirit stones, what if they ask themselves to return to their lives again?"
Little Z: "The kind of situation you are talking about is the time and space transmission of the entrusted office. However, like our most basic space travel, at least 30 or 50 soul stones are required, and as many as hundreds. , Even if they were able to send their souls back, it was after their deaths. There is no protection for the individual souls in the sun, and they can easily dissipate between the heaven and the earth. And they are not bound to the space-time hut, so the housekeeper is also They cannot incorporate their souls into the corpse. Unless..."
　　 "Unless what?"
"Unless it is before death... that is, before the client's death, passing their souls back for a period of time, having the memory of a period of time afterwards... can be understood as rebirth. But the price of this is too great. According to me For the prices we have learned before, time retrospectives are generally calculated in hours. One hour retrospective is about 100 soul stones. The more time you retrospect, the more energy you need..."
　　Qingu took a deep breath, the price is so high. Dare to love the more than a hundred soul stones that were a little complacent before, it is simply not enough to look at them in front of them.
　　 "And there is a prerequisite, that is, the empty hut must be at least level III to have the ability to travel through time." Otherwise, how to call it a time hut.
　　Qingu listened to the butler’s explanation, and couldn't help but feel dignified. It seems that the mutual restraint and counterattack between the client and the task person is a serious and soul-related thing!
Little Z slowed down a little, and continued: "Now I want to tell you that it is a format contract and an independent contract. The format contract is the kind of contract that you saw at the soul transfer station before, like a flyer; and we and the principal Time is an independent contract."
　　 "The former, because there is no need to travel through time and space and enter the real small world, so only a small amount of energy is needed to achieve the wishes of the client."
　　Qingu couldn’t help asking again:
It’s not necessary for the tasker to enter the small world? Then, how do you help the client fulfill his wish?

Little Z: "Well, it also requires the space-time hut to reach level 3 or higher in order to open up a virtual space in the space-time hut. We call that virtual space a wish pool. We only need to project the client's memory into the wish pool. Simulate a virtual world based on its memory, and then put a ray of mind of the tasker into it, mobilize the activities of the characters, etc., to develop in the direction expected by the client...In this way, their wishes are satisfied. When the wish of the client is fulfilled, there is no sway, and it dissipates completely..."
　　Qingu: "Did it dissipate completely again?"
　　In this way, when there is a loss to the world, the final ending is basically dissipated.
　　 Little Z: "But this is not absolute..." This is too broad and complicated.
"I just said that the ten soul stone of the original soul is a watershed. When the value is higher than this value, in principle, the other party cannot be allowed to pay the price of the original soul. Of course... if the soul really cannot let go of his own life, he must It’s a different matter to fulfill their wish. After all, if they insist on choosing the kind that just fulfill their wish and waste the soul stone...Anyway, for the office, it's just opening a virtual space, it is impossible to refuse to send it to the door. The soul stone."
　　Qingu nodded in agreement...In fact, it was largely because of the newly dead souls, who didn't understand them yet.
　　 And they have just left their lives, and few people can immediately relax and no longer worry about it.
　　 The description on those flyers just catered to their ideas. How can one know the difference between reality and virtuality and whether the soul returns to the real world?
Little Z: "However, for independent contracts like ours, generally speaking, it takes at least 20 soul stones as rewards before they dare to take over. You have personally experienced this before you consume it, in case you are in the world of the client It is difficult to achieve success, so the soul stones invested must be deducted from the reward. If the reward is not enough, it is to eat one's own money... who wants to eat one's own money?"
　　Qingu made a long oh, it turns out that's the case.
　　 "But, the first time I entrusted a mission, isn't the reward for only ten soul stones?"
　　Qingu couldn't help but think that the previous two missions ~ EbookFREE.me ~ commissioned rewards were only ten soul stones.
Thinking of this, most firms are reluctant to accept this, because knowing that the cost of independent contracts is too high, and the remuneration of the contract is too low, not to mention that the client is very young and it is difficult to make a big difference. I had to pay for it by accident, so I refused.
　　 It seems that it is not only that she is lucky to have a task to accept, but also the luck of those entrusters... Ten soul stones can return to her life again.
Little Z: "That time, we had no choice. Moreover, I scanned it. The client was very young and had the help of parents and teachers. As long as you seize the opportunity, you will still have a great chance of winning. Although you are the first mission , But...you did well."
　　 Affirmed by the butler, Qingu felt a warm and heavy feeling in her heart.
　　 This is Qin Gu’s first long conversation with the housekeeper of the Space-Time Cabin, and I feel that all my doubts have been resolved.
　　 Plus, there is no interference from the miscellaneous memories of the client's life, and I feel that the whole soul has become relaxed, and there is a feeling of sudden enlightenment.
　　 Xiao Z finally added: "However, although you can earn extra merit in the life of the client, you have also seen that when the conditions for counterattack are met, the other party is very eager to return to their own life."
　　 "You might say: You can deliberately lengthen the mission to delay the completion of the counterattack, but... there are too many variables."
"Take your last mission as an example. If you fail to grasp the opportunity to kill them in the Miasma Forest, then everyone in the entire Pharmacist Valley will be involved in that chaos, and even the client's mother will be involved... In that way, not only will it be impossible to play a counterattack, but you may even take yourself in..."
