Li Ang roughly explained the background of this matter to Tang Rannuo, and

    then refreshed the Anti-996 License project page on the tablet computer back

    and forth, but he never saw any traces of garbled characters."Hmm... there are three possibilities."Li Ang said seriously: "One, this page has been reset, and the curse of

    cognitive bias has been cancelled.Second, the previous curse was specifically aimed at Xia Junqiang. After it

    took effect, the caster immediately cancelled it.Three, we did not meet the conditions to trigger the curse. "Tang Rannuo frowned and thought, and soon reacted.The probability of the first possibility is not high, because the number of

    visits to the Anti-996 License page is not a small number. If all visitors are

    cursed with cognitive bias, it is now possible that a chain of deaths will be

    exposed long ago.The second possibility is currently untestable. It is impossible for the two

    players to enter Xia Junqiang''s room and search on his computer.Even if they find an intelligence dealer now and buy a set of hacking software

    from him, it is unrealistic to try to invade Xia Junqiang''s personal computer-

    there is too little time left, and the computer has to be scrapped.The third possibility, on the contrary, is the most likely.If the speller with an unknown identity spreads the curse of cognitive bias on

    the web page and sets certain trigger conditions (for example, the curse will

    only take effect when the viewer has red hair),Then it is indeed possible to shrink the scope of coverage and accurately

    curse certain groups.But the problem is, God knows what characteristic of Xia Junqiang is that

    meets the trigger condition of the curse,Li Ang and Tang Rannuo are not occult experts, and they have no time to verify

    the triggering of Xia Junqiang''s curse one by one.The goal of the first stage of the mission is to find out the cause of Xia

    Junqiang’s death.The two guessed that he died of a curse, but they haven''t figured out the

    specific process for the curse to be triggered, and they failed to meet the

    first-stage mission completion requirements.Seeing the mission time limit is approaching, the atmosphere between the two

    players has become more and more weird.The cooperation tasks in the regular world are the best that can be

    accomplished, but they can''t be completed without much loss.And once the time limit is over, after the friendly damage between the two is

    blocked, the first thing I am afraid is to guard against attacks from the

    other side.There is no trust between players. The strong can take the weak at will, use

    the weak’s true identity and life safety as a bargaining chip, threaten the

    other party to surrender all the equipment and props, and then pack and sell

    the weak.Such things are quite common overseas. Some players with bad character even

    form hunting brigades to actively look for extraordinary events and hunt down

    other players who unfortunately enter their sight.Lone wolf players and major official organizations hate the hunting brigade,

    but as long as there is interest, there will be disputes and killings.‘If I can’t figure out a way, I’ll have to fight him head-on...’Tang Rannuo''s expression on his face is still cold, but his brain is running

    fast, silently saying in his heart, ‘I’m really going to fight, I’m afraid I’m

    not his opponent.The basic attributes of this guy are terribly high, completely unlike the

    physique that an ordinary player of my level should have. ’Tang Rannuo is a level ten or above player, but she is not a complete combat

    player, nor has she joined any organization, and she only maintains a "knowing

    but unfamiliar" relationship with members of the Special Affairs Bureau.Really want to fight Li Ang, Tang Rannuo feels that he is not in the upper

    hand-even if she is followed by a big golden retriever dog with extraordinary

    abilities.difficult...Tang Rannuo let out a long sigh in his heart, but the expression on his face

    did not change at all-any subtle expression would make the other party

    suspicious and magnify the killing intent towards her."I have a way to verify the third possibility." Tang Rannuo said: "But I have

    to send a message to my friend.""Oh?"Li Ang raised his eyebrows, "That friend you mentioned is a mystic?""Almost, she has some research on occult rituals."Tang Rannuo replied vaguely, looking at Li Ang with his eyes straight, waiting

    for the other party''s consent.From the beginning of the mission, the two players are inseparable like

    Siamese babies. This is mainly to prevent the other party from notifying the

    official organization and betraying the other party.Actively contacting a third party is probably considered a provocative act,

    and there is also a threat of intelligence leakage."Ok...."Li Ang frowned for a while, nodded, and released the tablet that belonged to

    Tang Rannuo.The latter took the tablet and put it on the coffee table. After sliding a few

    times, he found a QQ friend named "White Bear" (the profile picture is a polar

    bear) and sent him a picture of Xia Junqiang’s screen. , And sent a message."Hello, this picture is an extraordinary event that I just encountered. I

    guess it is the curse of cognitive bias in the occult. Can you figure out its

    trigger conditions, form of action, and curse target?"After sending the message, Tang Rannuo and Li Ang waited quietly for several

    minutes, staring at the tablet screen silently.This white bear’s QQ friend is actually the best friend who lives with Tang

    Rannuo, is also a model, and is a young hairy girl from Russia.A few months ago, the two were randomly selected as players by the system at

    almost the same time.For so long, Tang Rannuo and Mao Mei have been supporting each other,

    encouraging each other, struggling to survive in the horrible and desperate

    task, and the innocent feelings between each other have risen sharply.The QQ number she is currently using and Baixiong’s QQ number

    ~~ are both registered before, and there is nothing in them.The two have made an appointment, if there is an emergency (for example, being

    held hostage, coerced, kidnapped or forced to enter a regular mission),uses these two QQs to make contact. When making contact, you can further

    express your current situation and hidden requirements to the other party

    according to the tone, words, and punctuation.(For example, with the word hello at the beginning, it proves that you have

    entered a regular mission and you are with another player you don’t know.

    There is no punctuation at the end, which proves that you are safe now...)Tang Rannuo made a request to a bestie who is proficient in occultism, and the

    secret code in the request,And the best friend quickly reacted, and while preparing to support Tang

    Rannuo, he typed and sent a message." These garbled characters on the screen are indeed a curse of cognitive bias.The source and caster of the curse are unknown.The triggering condition of the curse is that the concept of interests is

    biased towards the working people, who have vigorous and simple values, and

    have a hatred attitude towards business owners who squeeze the surplus wealth

    created by workers.The ultimate goal of the curse is to further solidify the subject’s outlook on

    life and world values, making it tough, tenacious, and not easy to yield. "As the girlfriend answered, Li Ang and Tang Rannuo also sounded a system

    prompt to remind them that the first phase of the mission has been completed

    and the second phase is entered.
