Phantasmal Genesis

Chapter 46: Things to note before the test

It was just announced, you might not know it.

Zhang Shan Hai looked worriedly at the man, speaking as though he had a headache, This is troublesome, you actually have no idea about the new rules.

Faced with Zhang Shan Hais gaze, the man was in a mess, he spoke flusteredly, If its like that, this test doesnt count! There wasnt any communication, and if Ive gone against the new rules, its not right to deduct my points!

No way! Ren Yu Yan shook his head.

The test isnt a game, how could we just do as you wish?

Thenyou tell me what Im supposed to do!

The man felt powerless and shrugged, his hands crossed as he waited for Ren Yu Yan to speak.

The tyranny of the Human Federation was well-known, but they were also known for being fair. The man believed that these two people would do the right thing for him, or they wouldnt have suddenly appeared in this test at all.

Ren Yu Yan and Zhang Shan Hai seemed to have prepared for this, they immediately spoke up when the man finished his sentence.

According to the rules, you first have to recite all of the old rules.

What?

The man thought he had heard wrongly, Why? If I cant remember the old rules, I

I cant say. Ren Yu Yan cut him off.

What?

Theres a rule. Zhang Shan Hai responded.

Alright, you guys win, Ill just recite it then! The man felt as though his question was pointless, but he felt lucky that he had memorised everything with a glance.

The man quickly started to recite the rules, but to the surprise of the two men, he spoke smoothly without a single pause.

Was this truly the result of reading something once?

Ren Yu Yan hurriedly jolted down the mans words, his hand swiftly moving across the paper. He had been trained professionally, even a person speaking 10 times faster than the average person wouldnt be an issue for him.

He couldnt help but think of the time when he had written down the song lyrics of a rapper. (He actually said Jay Chou, but eh.)

And after the man finished reciting the rules, the men looked at the paper. They didnt know what he was reciting, but they did get more than 10 pages worth of information.

They couldnt verify this information just by themselves, but there was an easy way to do so.

After the older policeman brought this man away, yet another man was brought in.

It was a man with dyed wine-red hair, his lips were a deep blue from consuming drugs, and he had bangs that covered half of his face.

He seemed familiar with this entire process, and he started speaking the moment he sat down.

My name is Ye Yu Tian, 22 years old, I dont have parents, ask away.

Ren Yu Yan spoke, Recite the rules of the routine morality test.

Er The red-haired man paused, looking hesitantly at the two of them.

You guys

Ren Yu Yan nodded, There was a new rule, it was suddenly added, you just have to recite the rules and the test will end.

There were new changes? The man was enlightened, and after thinking for a bit, he started reciting.

Ren Yu Yan and his partner looked at the rules that were just recorded earlier, and to their worry, what they had expected to happen, happened.

The rules that the red-haired man had recited were exactly the same as what the previous man had said.

Its important to note that because Ren Yu Yan had written in a hurry, there were tiny words scribbled all over the dozen pages!

There were at least ten thousand words here! And these two had actually recited the exact same thing?!

What did this prove?

The two of them were immediately alert, this situation wasnt something as simple as paranoia!

And it didnt take long for the next person to enter, whom they quickly instructed to recite the rules.

Four consecutive people had recited the exact same thing, without a single word difference.

Zhang Shan Hai picked up the recorded documents, and he started reading them seriously this time.

[The routine morality test is the first test from the Human Federation, its goal is to reduce the motive for committing crimes, and greatly lower the probability of crimes in the Human Federation, the first edition was created by Xuan Nv]

The rules are actually well-written and clear, and it mentions a series of laws like the [Time Management Act], [Human Management Act] and [Colonial System Management Act].

Zhang Shan Hai sighed deeply, his eyes filled with shock.

From this [Things to note for the test], I feel like all of these laws were enacted for a cosmic human civilisation.

It is unbelievably detailed.

All of them truly believe that theyre in a morality test, and therefore, according to the rules, theyre here to turn themselves in.

Ren Yu Yan had just changed back into his clothes, and after hearing his words upon entering the room, he smiled and responded.

Its ridiculous, and they have nothing to prove it.

Right.

Zhang Shan Hai nodded, No matter how ridiculous their thinking is, without any proof, we can treat it as rubbish.

A lot of well-structured lies were mixed in with some truth.

It was like Buddism calling out Taoism for plagiarising their scriptures, the changes made in the bible in China, or the fact that god was referred to as the Jade Emperor.

[Human History] expounded the fact that human civilization was built on lies and myth.

The situation that the two of them were in resembled the first China man meeting a missionary, unable to tell the truth from lies.

Lets report this to the higher-ups, theyll have a way to verify the truth. Zhang Shan Hai spoke.

The establishment of their department was aimed to deal with these strange events that had been happening at an unimaginable frequency these days. Much less this group reincarnation situation, they had even seen stranger things.

If it werent for all these, the two of them wouldnt have been the only ones left in their departments, everyone was on their own missions.

How eventful. Zhang Shan Hai grumbled.

Gathering their documents, the two of them reported to the superintendent and waited for their own men to come after everyone had been locked up.

They didnt know the number of people affected by this incident, aside from the ones here to turn themselves in, how many individuals had instead chosen not to do so?

If it was like what they were imagining, it was bound to be troublesome.
