68, Magic Eye
Yang Qi's body stiffened, feeling a little embarrassed, and then pretended that nothing happened, just stood up, and smiled politely: "Captain Xu." β
Lin Shuo looked at the three people who walked into the living room, in addition to the blood clan, there were two other men, the young man in formal clothes was Xu Zhiyuan's assistant, and the other man was Xu Zhiyuan.
Xu Zhiyuan looks like he is about thirty or forty years old, his hair is still black and thick, and there are only a few obvious wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, not at all like a person in his fifties, his calm eyes are like a deep and endless starry sky, just being watched by his gaze, there is a strange sense of loss, as if he will be sucked into those eyes at any time.
ββThis is how Lin Shuo felt when he saw Xu Zhiyuan for the first time.
No wonder it has the name of 'magic eye', which is indeed extraordinary.
"Miss Yang."
'Demon Eye' Xu Zhiyuan nodded slightly to Yang Qi and said, "I haven't seen my grandfather for a long time, so I have time to say hello to me." β
"Definitely." Yang Qi answered, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
This Captain Xu is still very good at being a person, and he noticed that there was some unhappiness between her and her teammates, so he deliberately pointed out that her identity was not ordinary, and she was a big man who even had to greet him, which could not only avoid the conflict between the team members and her, but also help her resolve the embarrassment just now.
"You're Lin Shuo, right?" Xu Zhiyuan looked at Lin Shuo again and said with a smile: "Hello, I'm Xu Zhiyuan, thank you for making such a special trip, it's hard work." β
"Hello Captain Xu." Lin Shuo nodded slightly humbly.
Xu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Let's sit down and talk slowly, Xiao Fang, you go and pour a few glasses of water." β
After several people sat down, Xu Zhiyuan looked at Lin Shuo who was sitting on the sofa opposite, and said softly: "I heard that you suffered several assassinations on the way here, maybe it has something to do with me?" β
Lin Shuo nodded slightly, and said, "But I'm just guessing, what does Captain Xu think?" β
"I think it's my sake, too."
Xu Zhiyuan sighed softly and said: "Not long ago, I actually invited a fire thief with a talent for foreknowledge to join my team, and the contract was already signed, but the new team member suddenly died in an accident the day after he was separated from me. β
He paused, looked at Lin Shuo, and asked, "Judging from the information provided to me by the association, it was the night demon who assassinated you?" β
Lin Shuo snorted and said: "There should be a powerful organization behind the assassination of my night demon, and the leader of the organization may be an evil eagle wearing a 'devil's finger-like mask', that evil eagle once infiltrated the No. 1-58 forbidden area, and under the nose of the monitoring base, he quietly brought out more than one night demon from the forbidden area, and improved the night demon virus, and now I am afraid that many more powerful night demons have been created." β
"The mask of the devil's fingers?" Xu Zhiyuan showed a hint of doubt.
Lin Shuo nodded slightly, and said: "The owner of these night demons may be that person, the other party may be trying to deal with you, and he is unwilling to let your team have a prophetic talent, so he will kill the person you invited before, as well as me...... Did Captain Xu think of anything? β
Xu Zhiyuan couldn't help frowning, "Don't want my team to have a prophetic talent?" β
"Captain."
The Blood Clan Kangjes suddenly said loudly: "Could it be because of the No. 3-80 forbidden area?" Maybe the enemy is afraid that you will be the first to get ahead? β
Xu Zhiyuan groaned for a while, and said lightly: "There is indeed this possibility." β
β3-80οΌβ Lin Shuo couldn't help but look at Xu Zhiyuan.
"A level 3 exclusion zone that is being explored deeply." Xu Zhiyuan explained: "We do have competitors there, in addition to the local forces in the forbidden area, there are some mysterious forces that I don't know where they came from, maybe there are enemies in this incident." β
Lin Shuo was stunned.
Xu Zhiyuan sighed helplessly and said: "Many of the evil eagles wanted by the world government now have unknown origins and are extremely mysterious, the enemy is in the dark, and we are in the light, which is indeed very troublesome. β
He picked up the teacup, took a sip, put it down, looked at Lin Shuo again, and said: "I invited Mr. Lin to come over for a meeting this time, but I didn't expect that there would be such an enemy, I didn't think it through, I'm really sorry, I knew it was like this, I should have come to the door in person." β
Yang Qi, who was sitting next to Lin Shuo, couldn't help but be secretly surprised.
Unexpectedly, Xu Zhiyuan is really exactly the same as the rumored ones, not only does he not have the slightest arrogance of the winner of the Order of the Torch, but he is modest and gentle, no wonder the 'Demon Eye' has such a big reputation, and the connections and paths of all parties are also so extensive.
"Captain Xu doesn't need to apologize." Lin Shuo shook his head lightly and said, "It's the same for me to come." β
"So, is Mr. Lin still willing to join my team?" Xu Zhiyuan said: "I heard Bailer say, you haven't made a decision? Is it because of the threat of the enemy? I can't guarantee that I will be able to protect you, but as long as you follow me, I'm sure the enemy won't be able to do anything about you. β
Lin Shuo pondered for a moment and said, "Threat...... Probably part of the reason, I also want to ask, is Captain Xu willing to take me to the 1-58 penalty area? β
"Exclusion zone 1-58?"
Xu Zhiyuan frowned slightly and said, "I know you are seriously ill, but you can also go to the Elf Garden in the No. 2-19 Forbidden Zone, right?" Even if ordinary elves can't save you, I can ask the elves to come forward, even the elven clan elders can, and I can pay for you for the price you need. β
Lin Shuo shook his head and said, "I am also infected with a variant of the Daredevil virus, and I must go to the No. 1-58 forbidden area." β
"Daredevil virus?" Xu Zhiyuan's brows furrowed more and more, "The power of the elf may not be able to save you, the genetic level involved is too deep, and it is no longer as simple as regeneration." β
Yang Qi couldn't help but ask, "Is Captain Xu willing to take Lin Shuo to the No. 1-58 penalty area?" β
The Bloodline Conges next to him didn't speak, just showed a silent mocking smile, as if he already knew the outcome.
ββ¦β¦ I'm sorry. β
Xu Zhiyuan sighed and said, "If it was a year ago, maybe I would have promised Mr. Lin, but now...... I've been through eight penalty areas, and after removing the home penalty area, there is only one last chance to pick the penalty area, and this opportunity is very important, it is related to the awakening of my talent, and I basically can't give it up. β
Lin Shuo's face was calm, and he didn't feel surprised at all.
"Basically?" Yang Qi keenly grasped the key words.
"Well, it's not entirely impossible."
Xu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "If my time talent can naturally reach a deeper level of awakening, there will be a lot of opportunities to pick the forbidden area, and in that case, I can take Mr. Lin into the forbidden area." β
Yang Qi was slightly stunned, and then despaired.
Xu Zhiyuan's time talent has awakened to a fairly high level, and he still wants to naturally reach a deeper level of awakening?
The odds are slim to none.
"So, I'm sorry." Xu Zhiyuan looked at Lin Shuo apologetically, and then said: "Of course, if Mr. Lin is willing, I can ask an elite team to take you into the No. 1-58 forbidden area, and after you recover, you can also re-enter my team, what does Mr. Lin think of this plan?" β
"That'...... Forget it. β
Lin Shuo shook his head slightly, and said bluntly: "If you can't act together, I will join Captain Xu's team, even in modern times, Captain Xu can protect me, but after I go to the No. 1-58 forbidden area, the enemy can still deal with me, and the mysterious leader wearing the devil's finger mask can quietly enter and exit the No. 1-58 forbidden area." β
"That's dangerous." Xu Zhiyuan nodded suddenly, and couldn't help but sigh regretfully: "I'm really sorry for the involvement of Mr. Lin, but since Mr. Lin didn't join my team, I will explain it publicly, let the enemy know that you won't join my team, and you should be safe." β
"Safe?"
Lin Shuo shook his head slightly and said, "That's not necessarily. β
"Why?" Xu Zhiyuan couldn't help but wonder.
Lin Shuo leaned back on the sofa, clasped his arms with his hands, groaned for a while, and said, "Captain Xu, I suspect that the enemy is trying to deal with you, and there may be other reasons besides the competition in the forbidden area. β
"Oh?" Xu Zhiyuan looked at him, "Let's hear it." β
"The other party has a special method of brainwashing by relying on spiritual power, so as to deprive people of their egos, control people's hearts, and then use the mutant virus to cultivate the night demon."
Lin Shuo said softly: "As far as I know, the stronger the spiritual will of a human being, the greater the potential after becoming a night demon, since Captain Xu is in the name of 'Demon Eye', the spiritual will should be quite strong, right?" β
"What do you mean by 'it should be strong, right?'? Are you underestimating the captain? β
The blood clan 'Kangjies' sneered, shook his head and said: "The most powerful thing about the captain is the spiritual power, even before the awakening of the spiritual power, the spiritual will of the captain is rare to be seen by tens of millions of people, I know, you can see through the little tricks of the night demon and think that your spiritual will is very strong, but compared to the captain, your spiritual will is ......."
Before he could finish speaking, Xu Zhiyuan frowned slightly and interrupted softly: "Baile, don't say it." β
Kang Jiesi glanced at Lin Shuo again, then turned his head slightly and kept silent.
He was already unhappy when he saw this newcomer named Lin Shuo, but it was a newcomer from the ordinary forbidden area of the 1-01 penalty area without a supernatural system, and he was even more arrogant than him?
Captain Lian, a strong man who is famous all over the world for his 'magic eye' and ranks among the people with spiritual abilities, this newcomer can still say something slightly questioning, 'It should be quite strong'?
He can bear to be arrogant in front of him, but even the captain he admires and loves the most, this newcomer dares to speak like this, how can he bear it?
"I'm sorry, Lin Shuo."
Xu Zhiyuan looked at Lin Shuo again and said apologetically: "This member of mine has always been a little inattentive to his speech, I hope you don't mind, I apologize to you on his behalf." β
Lin Shuo shook his head slightly, "It's nothing, maybe my words are a little inappropriate." β
"Then let's move on." Xu Zhiyuan smiled mildly and said, "You just talked about spiritual will, right?" My mental will is indeed not bad, you mean...... Could it be that the enemy is trying to turn me into a night demon too? β
"Not bad." Lin Shuo nodded slightly.
"Then I shouldn't need to worry too much."
Xu Zhiyuan smiled and said: "With my spiritual will and spiritual strength, it shouldn't be a simple matter for the enemy to brainwash me. β
Speaking of this, he suddenly wondered: "However, Mr. Lin just said that even if you don't join my team, you may not be safe, does it mean that the enemy also wants to brainwash you and cultivate you into a night demon?" β
Lin Shuo was silent for a moment, and then said, "There is this possibility." β
"So, Mr. Lin also has an extraordinary spiritual will?"
Xu Zhiyuan said with interest: "Mr. Lin's information did not write this, and Bailer did not mention it to me before...... In this way, if Mr. Lin's mental will is good, I can share a secret information with you, I believe this information will be of great help to you, and it will be my apology. β
When Yang Qi heard this, her beautiful eyes couldn't help but light up.
Xu Zhiyuan, a well-known veteran fire thief, has explored so many forbidden areas, and obviously knows a lot of secrets in the forbidden area, and the 'Demon Eye' can have such a big reputation, naturally he has received a lot of benefits in the forbidden area to grow to this point.
For example, how to awaken the ability of 'Demon Eye'? Or is it some other way to harness mental powers?
Lin Shuo has nothing special except for his spiritual will, if he can get Xu Zhiyuan's experience, of course it will be of great benefit!
"May I ask what Captain Xu said 'good', what is the standard?" Lin Shuo asked softly.
"If Mr. Lin doesn't mind, let me try it."
Xu Zhiyuan smiled slightly and said: "When you are watched by my 'magic eye', you will feel a certain amount of spiritual oppression, and the will of ordinary people can't even bear the spiritual oppression of one of my demon eyes, if Mr. Lin can resist the mental oppression of my four demon eyes, it means that you have passed the test." β
"Oh?"
Lin Shuo's eyes lit up, and the corners of his mouth slowly curled: "It's just right, I also want to know my spiritual will...... How strong is it in the end. β
