The old man in the gray robe was a little confused.
His name is Sima Hongtu, and he is a top-tier retainer of the Sima family. In terms of tracking people alone, he is among the best in the entire Tianjun County.
Otherwise, Qin Shengjie wouldn't have been the first one they targeted.
The problem now is that the current findings are not enough for him to pinpoint Lin Yi's identity.
Sima Hongtu pondered for a moment: "The clues we can confirm now are that there is a two-time finisher named Qin Shengjie who has never made a public appearance, and this Qin Shengjie's memory has been tampered with."
"This can't be a coincidence, can it?"
He certainly didn't believe it could be a coincidence.
No normal person would believe that.
Although he didn't have direct means to prove that this Qin Shengjie was the same Qin Shengjie, the matter had progressed to this point, and it was almost certain.
"The next one is Tang Qingxue."
Sima Hongtu's ability to act is beyond doubt. With his methods, now that he has a successful case, finding Tang Qingxue is only a matter of time.
In less than three days, he had already identified Tang Qingxue.
Once the person is found, the first thing to do is to probe their memories.
"It really was altered! I knew there was no such thing as a literary old lady!"
Sima Hongtu's eyes lit up.
If there was even a one percent chance before, it might have been pure coincidence, but now he can draw a definitive conclusion.
"Someone actually used someone else's identity to enter the character track!"
Both Qin Shengjie and Tang Qingxue had very clear memories; apart from the certainty that they had been altered, there was no other valid information.
However, the more this is the case, the more thrilling and terrifying what lies behind it becomes.
The character track has always been regarded as a privilege exclusive to the citizens of Tianjun, and no one other than the person in question can impersonate them by any means.
This is common knowledge that is universally acknowledged throughout Tianjun.
However, this discovery has completely overturned his long-held beliefs.
Sima Hongtu pondered, "Is he the only one capable of impersonation, or are there others who can impersonate him but haven't been discovered yet?"
The answer is currently unknown.
In fact, Sima Hongtu wasn't that concerned.
There is only one thing he cares about most.
What secret did this person have? It's a pity he kept finishing the race.
Qin Shengjie and Tang Qingxue together mean they've finished three tracks in a row!
Compared to a double finisher, a triple finisher may seem to have only one more finisher and not a significant increase in difficulty, but in the long history of Tianjun, it has appeared less than once!
In a sense, this is a true miracle.
Sima Hongtu immediately came to a conclusion that sent chills down his spine.
"This person has discovered a fatal flaw in the racetrack!"
However, it was soon followed by fervor.
If someone were to discover a loophole that guarantees the end of the race, the potential profits behind it would be immeasurable.
This is a truly extraordinary opportunity!
Sima Hongtu's heart was burning with passion.
According to regulations, he must report any discoveries he makes to the family immediately.
But he didn't.
He was quite certain that once this matter was reported, it would cause a sensation not only among the Sima family but throughout the entire Tianjun County.
He will surely receive a substantial family reward.
However, that small reward is nothing compared to enjoying this incredible opportunity all to oneself.
Sima Hongtu was instantly filled with a surge of soaring ambition.
"I am not incapable of taking a seat as the ruler of Tianjun!"
His gaze immediately returned to the track hall.
Neither Qin Shengjie nor Tang Qingxue provided him with enough accurate information to pinpoint the target's identity.
But one thing he was sure of.
Now that the other party has grasped this loophole, they will never give up easily.
In other words, all he needs to do now is stay in the track lobby and keep an eye on the track finisher leaderboard.
In the event of any changes, the target person will be identified immediately.
While this method of waiting passively for someone to succeed might seem foolish, it still offers a considerable chance of success if the person is fast enough and lucky enough.
“After each use of a fake identity, this person must carefully modify the target’s memories. The method is so sophisticated that it must take a long time.”
Sima Hongtu's eyes gleamed: "This is the time difference I've been given!"
the other side.
Lin Yi has changed his identity again; this time he's still a homeless man named Dewey.
After taking a stroll as usual, Lin Yi finally chose a popular track.
Beggar's Track.
As the name suggests, this is a track designed specifically for a beggar protagonist, and the achievements required for it are quite high-level.
Their names will be remembered for eternity.
How can a beggar be remembered for eternity?
At first glance, the two seem quite mismatched, but that doesn't stop people from flocking to them.
Contrary to the stereotypes of most people, the "Beggar Track" may not be as popular as the "Emperor Track," but it is still an undeniably popular track.
The key is that the barrier to entry is low enough.
Ordinary people may lack the knowledge and experience to achieve great things like becoming an emperor, but playing the role of a beggar is much easier.
Even if you don't dare to hope to finish the race, it's still easy to accumulate some achievement points.
However, this is yet another stereotype.
If someone could access the big data, they would find that the average achievement points of the beggar track participants were not higher than those of other tracks, but were actually much lower.
On the one hand, the large number of participants lowered the lower limit.
On the other hand, the main reason is that the achievement required this time is quite unconventional for the traditionally popular track of begging.
If, as in the past, one pursued long enough survival time, or a miserable life, or resorted to the lowest of the low—stealing and cheating—ordinary people would still have some room to maneuver.
To expect a beggar to be remembered for eternity is truly asking too much.
However, as long as any track exists for a long enough time, there will always be plenty of skilled players.
Lin Yi glanced at the achievement list.
Huo Yujia is ranked number one with 93 achievement points.
"It's actually a girl?"
Lin Yi was somewhat surprised, not because he was discriminating against women, but because he had learned that women were just as active as men in the role-playing field.
In some of these tracks, female athletes hold a dominant position.
However, this "beggar track" doesn't seem to fit with women, at least intuitively.
Lin Yi carefully reviewed the sand table replay, then looked at it with a strange expression.
The script designed by Huo Yujia can be summarized in six words.
From beggar girl to fairy.
Starting as a pitiful female beggar, she rises through a series of fortuitous encounters, cultivating her way to become a powerful female immortal.
It also involves grudges and entanglements with her male master and childhood sweetheart.
Overall, it's definitely a female-centric, feel-good drama.
However, the fact that she was able to obtain 93 achievement points means that this is not entirely wishful thinking, but rather that she has gained recognition from the track.
