Infinite Job Transfers Starting from Mechanic

Chapter 1279: Chapter 731: Narrative Corruption

Humans are social animals. Except for some people who are isolated from society, the story trajectories of normal people intersect with those of other people at every moment.

People influence others, and others also influence them.

If changes occur in other people’s stories, the affected person will also change.

For example, when Su Yu was initially in Shelter No. 73, in order to deal with Li He, he cooperated with Yang Lie, the old administrator, and others. In the end, Su Yu increased his strength and successfully defeated Li He.

If Yang Lie, Li He, and others had died early on, then naturally, this segment of the story wouldn’t exist.

Su Yu’s life trajectory would change.

By the same token, Yang Lie, Li He, and others would also experience such situations. If the people around them had changes in their story trajectories, their human trajectories would also change, further influencing Su Yu.

Now Su Yu is encountering this situation.

However, what Su Yu is encountering is separated by several layers of acquaintances, it’s the acquaintances of acquaintances of acquaintances…

It’s not just acquaintances, but also ancestors, parents, and acquaintances of ancestors and parents, which are even further removed.

With such layered isolation, it’s no wonder Su Yu found it difficult to pinpoint the problem before.

An individual with whom Su Yu has an unknown number of degrees of separation, whose story changed, so naturally, Su Yu wouldn’t notice right away.

By the time he realizes it, the problem is already quite serious.

To put it simply, in Su Yu’s past stories, aside from himself, there were those acquaintances and acquaintances of acquaintances.

Nearly all other characters and stories have turned into bizarre garbled code.

The breadth of impact has already covered the entire Primordial Universe.

Before his journey across worlds, Su Yu had heard a theory: that through 7 people, one can connect with any person.

In other words, theoretically, a web of relationships through 7 people can encompass the billions of people worldwide.

And Su Yu had far more than 7 acquaintances.

If you include the relationship networks of these people’s parents and ancestors, it is enough to encompass all beings in the Primordial Universe.

These beings include the Human Empire, various Alien Beings, and various Subspace Demons and Evil Gods.

And at this moment, the stories of these beings have essentially all turned into illogical garbled code due to the Book of Narrative composed by the Spirit Beast Clan.

Leaving only Su Yu and his acquaintances.

It’s not only the stories of beings, but even the stories of the Universe itself have turned into garbled code.

Leaving only the planets and Star Systems Su Yu has visited.

In this way, Su Yu is bound to be affected.

After all, his story is constantly interacting with other people and entities.

If those people’s and entities’ stories vanish, how could Su Yu’s story logic remain unaffected?

For instance, if the Human Empire had never existed from the beginning, many events Su Yu experienced wouldn’t make sense.

“It’s like exterminating my nine tribes…”

“No, it’s the Ninety-nine Tribes…”

Su Yu thought to himself.

Exterminating nine tribes was an ancient punishment from the world Su Yu came from before his journey.

It meant killing all blood relatives of the criminal. Theoretically, a person’s nine tribes could encompass dozens or even hundreds of people.

But now Su Yu is dealing with more than nine tribes; the Ninety-nine Tribes are gone, which essentially means the entire Universe.

This move from the entity behind the scenes is truly vicious.

Even though only a few beings in the Universe have interacted with Su Yu directly, being many degrees of separation apart.

Their existence is the foundation of all the stories Su Yu experienced.

Once lost, all of Su Yu’s experiences become castles in the air, without anything to support them.

What’s likely to follow is… a logical collapse!

And it’s not an external logical collapse—it occurs within Su Yu himself.

“It seems I still lack experience in battles at the narrative layer, and carelessly fell into a trap…”

Su Yu mentally cautioned himself.

Previously, he hadn’t considered there could be such a tactic.

After all, his time with the profession of the Book of Narrative was short, and he didn’t have many opportunities to use it in battle.

Additionally, battles at the narrative layer are inherently extremely bizarre; Su Yu inadvertently fell into the trap.

“Was it really an inadvertent mistake?”

Su Yu suddenly had a thought.

He suspected that his consciousness had been influenced subtly, which is why he couldn’t think of the “exterminating Ninety-nine Tribes” tactic.

However, if the opponent could influence his mind, why bother going to such lengths to utilize his “Ninety-nine Tribes” to affect him?

Upon contemplating this, Su Yu promptly examined the depths of his consciousness.

In the depths of Su Yu’s consciousness, there is stored the Information of all beings of the Primordial Universe, the so-called “Transcendence Council.”

With this Information, Su Yu can resurrect them at any time and recreate the Universe.

Currently, that Information hasn’t disappeared or turned into garbled code; it still exists properly.

Su Yu still has the ability to resurrect them.

But in the Book of Narrative, the stories of these beings have all turned into garbled code.

This already violates logic.

Without their stories, how does their Information exist?

Under normal circumstances, when the stories turn into garbled code, these beings would turn into garbled code too, completely disappearing from Su Yu’s stories and memories.

Then further affecting Su Yu, leading to a logical collapse of his story.

This is the malicious attack orchestrated by the entity behind the scenes using the Spirit Beast Clan.

But the attack seems to be stuck at a certain step and hasn’t fully been implemented.

This is why Su Yu is still alive and well.

Su Yu swiftly ponders, and suddenly, a flash of insight crosses his eyes, comprehending the situation.

“So that’s it—as a ‘reader audience,’ entering the story itself is inherently a violation of logic.”

“Therefore, I can do some things that violate logic…”

Su Yu can defy logic and retain the Information of the Transcendence Council because he himself is a violation of logic!

Therefore, the attack hasn’t been fully executed!

With this thought, Su Yu feels reassured; the attack from the entity behind the scenes seems to be of no concern anymore.

“Wait… no! The entity behind the scenes should know my nature, so what was the point of such a futile attack?”

Su Yu pondered.

At this moment, Su Yu notices that in the Book of Narrative, the stories of beings in the “Ninety-nine Tribes” throughout the Universe suddenly change from garbled code to stories with certain logic.

Although they are still somewhat chaotic, they can now be normally interpreted.

In the stories, these beings seem to have all turned into a group of low-intelligence fools, possessing strange powers akin to realizing their wishes; as long as they believe something, no matter how outrageous or against logic, it seems it can be achieved.

Simply put, these beings have all turned into… Spirit Beast Clan?

At the same time, Su Yu suddenly feels a strong sense of crisis in his heart.

“Is this the true attack plan of the entity behind the scenes? Narrative pollution?”
