"Autopilot has been disabled."
"The navigation has entered manual mode, please pay attention, pilot."
"Coordinates locked, estimated arrival time 30 minutes, alternate landing procedure activated."
It was exactly half past ten in the evening.
The huge shadow of a flying ship slowly emerged from the dark clouds.
The ship's warning lights flickered, repeatedly illuminating the clouds above and slowly lowering the flight altitude.
The destination is the evil tower located in the forgotten land of the Queen Star.
This is a flying ship from Golden Wing.
Mu Ziyue sat in the main seat and asked the person at the control console, "Has Tower 1 responded?"
Before we knew it, several days had passed since the departure of the first batch of troops.
After Mu Ziyue finished dealing with other important matters of the camp, he arranged a trip to come to the Evil Tower in person.
He did not forget to settle accounts with that kid Xu Qingran.
Since he defends Shen Tingyu so much, let him also try the torture that Shen Tingyu had suffered! Someone had previously told the tower commander to give him a taste of suffering as an appetizer, hoping that the evil tower would follow his orders during this period.
Even though there are countless punishments waiting for Xu Qingran in the future, he doesn't want him to have an easy time during this period.
Thinking of this, Mu Ziyue put her hand on her lips and rubbed it for a few times. The more she thought about it, the more satisfied she felt.
—Now Shen Tingyu, the person who can protect him the most, is not even in the empire, and his life or death is uncertain. He wants to see what other ways Xu Qingran can use to avoid all this.
In front, the staff at the control console replied: "Your Highness, there is still no response from Tower 1."
It takes about two or three days to sail from Tianlang to the Evil Tower.
And the place Mu Ziyue was going to was Tower No. 1.
Tower 1 is Mu Ziyue’s exclusive place for torturing people.
The surveillance system inside has high authority and is very mysterious. It is never open to the public. It is the most private building in the entire Evil Tower and is controlled by the party in the royal family who has control over the Evil Tower.
Because the towers are far apart.
Except for patrol personnel, those who come to visit usually land directly at the main tower. Otherwise, they have to drive for several hours to reach the next tower, which is too troublesome.
Mu Ziyue had someone contact the Evil Tower three days ago, asking them to transfer Xu Qingran, who was detained in Tower No. 2, to Tower No. 1 in advance.
Tower 1 had clearly stated at the time that they had received the notice and would make timely preparations to welcome the arrival of the enemy. However, today, they started contacting Tower 1 two hours ago, but the response they received was so intermittent that it was almost nonexistent and extremely perfunctory.
Mu Ziyue was very dissatisfied with their attitude.
After not coming for a while, she began to take this eldest prince less and less seriously.
Or is it possible that an insider was bribed by Mu Ziyu
During this period, Mu Ziyue heard that Mu Ziyu had tried many times to use his connections to interfere in the handling of the evil tower, but was intercepted by him.
It is not clear whether there are any fish that slip through the net.
Mu Ziyue fell into deep thought.
I thought to myself—this is really strange. I wonder what Xu Qingran fed his stupid brother [***] that he would protect him so much now.
Mu Ziyue, who was cautious in her actions, asked again, "What about the defense bases around the Queen Star?"
The Evil Tower is located on the Queen Star, but the land where it is located is the loneliest continent on the entire planet.
Surrounded by the sea, other lands were at least 10,000 miles away from them, as if they were isolated from the world. Mu Ziyue was worried that something had happened to the Evil Tower that had not been notified to the public yet, so she asked someone to confirm the safety of the Evil Tower continent with defense stations in other places.
The person in charge of contacting the planetary defense forces reported: "Your Highness, we have confirmed with all the defense bases on the Queen Planet."
"Everything is going well. There are no abnormalities in the defense lines and radar monitoring within a thousand miles of the Evil Tower Continent. The possibility of foreign invasion can be ruled out."
"I heard that when they made their routine greetings to the evil tower this morning, the tower 1 also gave them a signal feedback that they were safe."
At the same time, the other towers that were contacted also responded.
It was the staff of Tower 3 who contacted Tower 1 for them.
Said: "There is a problem with the communication equipment in Tower 1. We have sent someone to repair it. The connection should be restored soon. Please rest assured, Your Highness!"
Mu Ziyue pursed her lips and said nothing.
The air pressure in the cabin was a little low, and everyone became extra careful, fearing that they would make mistakes and be scolded.
The flying ship did not get confirmation from Tower 1 and could only continue circling around.
After a while, there was finally a response from Tower 1.
"Communications have been repaired."
"The landing route and site have been cleared and can be landed at any time."
A deep and pleasant voice was heard on the radio.
Accompanied by the noise of unclear signals, it was transmitted into the cabin of the aircraft carrier.
Mu Ziyue then instructed the pilot to continue landing.
I was filled with anger and had no mood to delve into the identity of the person who responded.
In the communication tower 1.
A brown-haired boy wearing a Silver Dragon military uniform and a military cap sat on a chair in front of the control panel, his fingers repeatedly pressing one of the switch buttons, and a regular "clicking" sound echoed in the small space.
At their feet, there were several bodies lying, not knowing whether they were dead or alive.
They were wearing the uniforms of Gold Wing and Silver Dragon respectively, and on their arms were cloth badges exclusive to the staff of the Evil Tower.
'Snapped'.
'despair'.
·
Mu Ziyue's flying ship was slightly delayed due to a communication problem with Tower 1.
It was almost midnight when we officially landed.
They landed safely at Tower 1's airfield.
The huge landing field was extremely quiet with a desolate sound of wind. There were not many military guards patrolling around. Except for the lights that were still on, it was as quiet as a dead city.
A man in luxurious attire, surrounded by a group of people, walked towards the entrance of Tower 1.
The dark gold cloak behind him fluttered in the wind, showing his imposing manner, but the expression on his face was covered with a layer of gloom, and his eyes became colder with every step he took towards his destination.
It's just nonsense.
He was a great prince who had come to the Evil Tower in person, but not only did he not see any of the management and airport reception staff at the landing field, but even when he walked all the way from there to Tower 1, there wasn't even anyone there to greet him!
This is the defense of the secret and important Tower 1? Do they still take it seriously?!
Mu Ziyue's expression turned completely dark when he reached the entrance of Tower 1.
There was nothing in front of the entrance.
Even the tower master didn't show up.
I heard that every time Shen Tingyu came, he would personally arrange a welcome and provide him with good tea and delicious food. What? Now it means that his status in the evil tower is not as good as Shen Tingyu? !
In anger, the staff member next to him ended the latest communication.
She reported to him carefully and respectfully: "We have confirmed with the supervisors of the other four towers. They said that the tower master came to Tower 1 early this morning to receive His Highness."
Mu Ziyue sneered.
I didn't even see a ghost. Is this his way of receiving people
"Where is the person I want?" Mu Ziyue asked again.
The 'person' this time refers to Xu Qingran.
The subordinate beside him added: "2 Tower said that after receiving the notification from His Highness three days ago, he had someone send him in."
The first instrument of torture that every person being executed would encounter was the electric chair.
Electric shock not only has a repelling effect on most alien races in the universe, but can also cause great interference to all psychics. The electric current injected into the human body will cause shock and interference to the spiritual pool. Although it will not cause direct damage to the spiritual pool, it will cause severe pain to the psychic.
It will greatly weaken their will.
Aggression, concentration of thoughts, and the exertion of mental strength.
Therefore, this is the most commonly used method of execution in the evil tower.
It is said that the Evil Tower temporarily arranged Xu Qingran to that place.
Mu Ziyue didn't say anything else.
Before my eyes, the metal gate sealing the entrance and exit of the tower was several stories high and looked particularly majestic and eerie.
He took out the identity card exclusive to Tower 1 and swiped it on the scanner beside the door.
The heavy metal door slowly opened under the control of the system.
Behind the door is a hundred-meter-long corridor.
At the end is an elevator that goes to different floors, including the basement where the research department is located.
The place where Xu Qingran was to be sanctioned was also on the basement floor.
When the door opened, Mu Ziyue and his men did not go in immediately.
Although he had not been to Tower 1 for quite some time, he vaguely remembered that Tower 1 was heavily guarded. Under normal circumstances, there would be many guards guarding the corridors on the ground floor. It was rare to see an empty corridor like this.
Mu Ziyue's first thought was that Mu Ziyu had indeed arranged someone to interfere with his handling of Xu Qingran.
He was even worried that he had secretly rescued the person when he wasn't paying attention.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and he strode in with a group of guards.
The door behind him slowly closed after everyone entered Tower 1.
Outside the tower, it was still quiet.
There are 5 underground floors in Tower 1.
From the 2nd floor downwards, only the main controller like Mu Ziyue, the tower master, the supervisor of Tower 1, and the staff in the laboratory have the right to pass.
Xu Qingran was imprisoned on the third floor underground.
After Mu Ziyue verified their identities, the elevator, which was wide enough to accommodate dozens of people, slowly carried them down. The rest of the guards who couldn't get in stayed upstairs and waited for the second round of elevators.
The elevator operates quietly.
When going down from the B2 floor to the B3 floor, the whole elevator car suddenly shook violently, causing Mu Ziyue and some unprepared guards to stagger and stagger.
The pale light in the elevator car also dimmed for a second.
The elevator environment, which was already very quiet, became even more dead silent.
For some unknown reason, they were enveloped by a sense of terror and oppression.
After a few seconds of silence, the elevator finally stopped.
The sound of Tower 1 system was also heard on the radio.
'The elevator has reached the -3rd floor.'
The elevator door slowly opened.
The sight made everyone stop in their tracks and stay in the elevator hesitantly.
Outside, there was still a corridor.
Just walk about ten meters and you will come to the first crossroad. At this time, the white lights on the corridor flickered like the atmosphere in a horror movie, and there was a corpse lying at the first crossroad.
Judging from his attire, he is one of the staff members in charge of the torture chamber on this floor.
No one knew what had happened to him. His expression before death was one of terror, and his body even had some black marks from the electric shock. He faced them with an extremely terrifying expression, as if he was eager to escape.
In addition to him, there seemed to be a few people lying in the distance as far as the eye could see.
Looking at the messy bloodstains on the floor, it's really creepy.
Mu Ziyue's eyes darkened instantly.
Let's not talk about the situation on other floors, but there are hundreds of staff on the negative 3rd floor alone, and they are all carefully selected elites, with an average spiritual level between double S and 3S. If it is an attack that even they can't stop, it means that the dozens of people they currently have may not be able to defeat it.
Mu Ziyue made a prompt decision, closed the elevator door first, and decided to go upstairs to notify support and block Tower 1.
The elevator door slowly closed, carrying them back to the ground.
The guards outside the elevator were surprised to see them coming up again in such a large group.
Then I heard Mu Ziyue's cold voice: "After you get out, immediately send a message to the other four towers and ask for support!"
Due to the special nature of Tower 1, the entire tower is equipped with signal shielding devices.
This is to prevent spies from sneaking into the staff and sending out the internal secrets and research status of Tower 1. Therefore, in Tower 1, only the communication station inside the tower can conduct basic communication with the outside world.
But the communications station is on the top floor.
There are too many uncertainties in the tower now, so leaving first is the best option.
A group of people rushed towards the gate.
Mu Ziyue picked up her ID card and swiped it on the verification station, only to find that the verification station, which was supposed to have a scanning line flashing back and forth, had been cut off from power. Not only the identity verification station for unlocking, but the circuit of the entire building seemed to have a problem, entering a forced lockdown state, and the door could not be opened!
Mu Ziyue gritted her teeth and said, "Break the door!"
Everyone took out their mental guns, ready to break the door open by force.
However, Tower 1 is generally a place where E-type criminals are punished.
All the isolation was made of the strongest material to resist E-type attacks, so it was not easy for them to break it open. After trying for nearly ten minutes, they only managed to scrape some dandruff on the door.
Mu Ziyue turned around and looked at the elevator in the distance.
He began to consider arranging a few people to go to the communication station to ask for help.
Just as he was about to give an order, the elevator a hundred meters away suddenly moved on its own.
It first rose from the ground all the way to the top floor, and then went down floor by floor until it reached the floor where Mu Ziyue and others were, and then it made a loud "ding" sound.
In the corridor, everyone stopped what they were doing.
The muzzle of the gun was nervously aimed at the elevator door that was about to open.
The hands holding the guns were clenched tightly.
The expressions on the guards' faces were extremely solemn and tense.
—They knew that there would be no monsters or demons appearing, but they didn't know why they were so nervous.
The main reason is that in this kind of environment, they feel too much oppressive.
The elevator door slowly opened.
There was only one person standing inside.
He was wearing a neat and good-looking silver-black military uniform and smiled at them warmly.
He raised his hand and said, "Hi."
Mu Ziyue, who was standing at the end of the crowd, had bloodshot eyes.
Xu Qingran!
Why isn't he locked up?!
Could it be that he was the one behind all this
Just him alone?!
"I'm sorry, the situation in Tower No. 1 is not good right now. We are short of manpower and have not had time to go out to greet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in person. Please forgive me." Xu Qingran said as he walked out of the elevator and slowly walked towards them.
Mu Ziyue's guards stared at him, cold sweat dripping down their foreheads.
They had the same thoughts as Mu Ziyue and were very suspicious - could it be that all this was done by him alone
The defense of Tower 1 is notoriously strong!
This was something that even an E-type, even Shen Tingyu, couldn't do. How could a 3S-level D-type like him cause such a huge mess? !
Mu Ziyue watched Xu Qingran approaching them nonchalantly.
He hated him even more, and didn't care about his D-type identity, and directly ordered: "Kill him!"
Everyone hesitated for a moment.
Mu Ziyue cursed again: "I am the eldest prince of the empire, don't my words count?! Don't you see what kind of dangerous person he is? Why don't you take him down quickly!"
"A person like this must not be allowed to leave the evil tower!"
After getting Mu Ziyue's guarantee, the guards immediately opened fire at Xu Qingran.
However, for some reason, his mental defense seemed to have been enhanced. So many powerful mental attacks were directed at him, but they were all intercepted, and none of them hit him.
Everyone was shocked and fired a few more shots at Xu Qingran out of disbelief.
As he got closer, he realized that it was not his mental defense that blocked all their attacks, but each time before being hit by the beam fired from the gun, several lightning-like lights emerged from his side, and each one was powerful enough to intercept their mental attacks.
Everyone on the field, including Mu Ziyue, was shocked.
—What the hell is that weird thing?!
Xu Qingran stared at them, a faint smile on his lips, and a faint glow slowly appeared in his eyes as he activated his mental power.
Unlike before, under the light, there was also a thin afterimage of lightning as thin as a spider silk.
When they paused their attack out of shock, he asked softly, "Is it over?"
Then he continued: "Now, it's my turn."
As soon as he finished speaking, several lightning-like attacks came towards them with the force of a soaring dragon.
The unprecedented powerful force even shattered the lights on the top of the corridor as they walked. Bursts of explosions and flying debris caused Mu Ziyue, who was surrounded by the crowd, to subconsciously raise his hands to protect himself.
When the noise ended, he lowered his arms and opened his eyes, only to see darkness.
There was only a red light above the thick metal door behind me, providing dim illumination.
It became very quiet all around.
He could only see a few people lying around his feet, all of them had apparently fainted after the shocking blow.
Mu Ziyue was shocked.
At this moment, he deeply realized that the person he had provoked this time, who seemed weaker than Shen Tingyu, was actually probably more difficult to deal with than him.
If he was not mistaken, Xu Qingran seemed to have used... a power that was not mental power
What on earth is that thing? Is this real in the world
At this point, rather than fear, Mu Ziyue's first thought was - if he could research the true source of Xu Qingran's power and master it, then his ability... could also be improved!
As Mu Ziyue thought so, a hint of excitement flashed across her eyes, as if she had discovered a new world.
But when he wasn't paying attention, Xu Qingran's voice came to him like a ghost, and asked him faintly: "What are you thinking about?"
At the same time, a cool feeling pressed against his forehead.
Mu Ziyue took advantage of the darkness and wanted to quietly take out the hidden weapon on her body and fight back when Xu Qingran probably couldn't see clearly.
As a result, when his attention was all on Xu Qingran holding the gun against him, he was suddenly hit hard on the back of his neck by a knife.
The pain was accompanied by a tingling sensation like an electric current, which completely drained his consciousness away.
No way to fight back.
In the corridor, Mu Ziyue, who was originally standing, fell heavily to the ground with a thud after losing consciousness.
Xu Qingran lowered his eyes and stared at him. His eyes were exceptionally clear in the darkness, as if he could see the surrounding scenery clearly even in the lowest visibility conditions.
He slowly lowered the hand holding the gun.
All five fingers were trembling violently, and the gun fell to the ground as he became weak and relaxed.
He frowned slightly, covered his heart which was throbbing in pain, bent over and gasped uncomfortably, instinctively trying to relieve the extreme discomfort in his body in this way.
If the lights in the corridor are still on at this time.
His expression must have been uglier than those people on the ground who were knocked unconscious by him.
The system screamed in his head: "Host! I told you that you can't use superpowers like this in this world!!"
"Are you going to die?!!"
Xu Qingran remained silent, with a hint of cruelty in his eyes.
There was no hesitation, and he pressed hard on himself.
The story begins four days ago.
"system."
"Let's discuss something."
The naive system heard its host's request and asked back, "What is it, host?"
Xu Qingran said to it in the calmest tone: "As the mission progresses, I am only a little bit away from completing the strategy."
"So let's make a deal. I want you to unlock my supernatural powers for me in advance."
system:"??"
"There is no such thing, and there is no such rule!" the system said firmly.
Xu Qingran said firmly: "There is such a rule."
"It just requires a certain exchange of conditions and a certain price, doesn't it?"
System: “…How on earth did you know that?!”
"I never told you about this hidden rule!"
Xu Qingran remained calm: "I saw it."
system:"?"
Xu Qingran: "When you wrote the secret book "Flirtatious Uncle and Pretty Niece-in-law" for me, you accidentally included the mission rules."
"I saw it."
system:"… "
Damn, if I had known I wouldn’t have gotten any strategy guides or cheats.
Yes.
There is a rule for rewards for special tasks.
When the task progress reaches 95%.
In an emergency, the task executor can apply to the system to obtain the reward in advance - because the task energy accumulated at this time is actually enough to remove the seal of the reward. However, according to the rules of the world, the task executor still needs to complete the task completely in order to legally and reasonably obtain the right to use the "golden finger".
There is a price to pay to obtain the right to use in advance.
The system refused: "No! It's too risky! I don't recommend it! I don't allow it! No room for negotiation!"
Xu Qingran's tone was still calm: "It's okay if you don't agree."
"Then you are going to collect my body."
system:"… "
Here it comes again! The host threatens it with death again!
Xu Qingran noticed its thoughts and said, "I'm not threatening you."
"I'm just stating the facts of what's going to happen."
After touring the Evil Tower, he had a certain concept and understanding of the facilities in the entire tower.
Especially, Tower 1, where he was about to be taken to be tortured by Mu Ziyue, had the most powerful and solid defense system in all evil towers, including all the torture chambers and torture instruments, all of which were strong enough to resist the explosive power of Type E's spirit.
Even Shen Tingyu, who is at the top E-type, needs a self-destructive burst of power to barely hurt the people around him.
The maximum level of his spiritual pool in this world is only 3S.
He was a class that couldn't even touch the spiritual power of the E-type. So, if they forcibly captured him and took him to Tower 1, even if he went crazy and killed himself, he might not be able to break free.
But if you have the power of thunder and lightning, it will be different.
The high-tech world is highly dependent on power and systems. If he could get his special powers back, he could easily unlock all kinds of locks by moving his fingers slightly to control the current.
Xu Qingran asked the system: "Do you want to see me killed by the staff in the evil tower and Mu Ziyue, or do you want me to kill them myself?"
system:"… "
"So, if you were not sure, why did you send yourself in at that time?!"
Xu Qingran replied: "I am sure."
"I came in just because I knew the rules and that I could get my powers back in advance."
Even before beating Mu Ziyue, he opened the system panel to confirm the progress of his strategy towards Shen Tingyu.
It has reached 98%.
It’s better to say that it has been stuck at 98% for a long time, and I don’t know where the last 2 points are.
system:"… "
Okay, okay, this means you only have one choice from the beginning, right
Xu Qingran had set up the plan himself.
Moreover, the situation was one in which there was only one way out. Even on the same night when Xu Qingran made this request to the system, the Evil Tower received an order from Mu Ziyue to send him to Tower 1.
In order to keep him alive, the system naturally could not refuse.
The price of taking back the superpowers in advance is that the originally indefinite mission will enter a countdown.
If the task cannot reach 100% progress within the specified time limit, not only will the right to use the golden finger be revoked, but Xu Qingran's life value in this world will also end with the end of the countdown.
That's why the system thinks Xu Qingran is really crazy.
—Although, he was crazy to begin with. But this time he was too crazy. Is there nothing in this world that he dare not do
The deadline given to Xu Qingran was originally two months.
Why do you say it is original
This brings us to the use of Xu Qingran's supernatural powers in this world.
After all, it is something that is far beyond the laws of this world. While he is allowed to use it, in order to prevent him from becoming too powerful to destroy the world at any time, the laws have made certain restrictions on the use of his supernatural powers.
For example, his abilities will be integrated with the spirit pool.
Every time he used his special ability, it was equivalent to using his mental power, which needed to be bound to the mental pool for consumption. This meant that he couldn't use it as he pleased. If the mental power in the mental pool was insufficient for various reasons, his special ability would not be able to be used.
—This is not bad for Xu Qingran, who is perfectly shaped as a ruler.
For example, supernatural powers need to be exerted in the way that the mental power of this world is used.
That is, he can combine mental power and use it together through mental guns, swords, cannons or mechas. From then on, his mental attack can selectively have an extra powerful force than others.
Even bare-handed fighting and kicking can be used in conjunction with the use of mental power.
But you can't just move your fingers infinitely and release large amounts of powerful power like in the apocalypse where superpowers are dominant.
The consequence of insisting on doing this is that your body will suffer internal injuries due to the backlash of the force.
The damage from backlash can only be recovered at the normal recovery speed of ordinary people, and will not be affected by mental power to accelerate healing. Therefore, if this self-injury method is used too frequently, it may cause new injuries to accumulate before the old ones are healed, and it will break off if you are not careful.
—This is after completing the mission and regaining the superpowers.
For someone like Xu Qingran, who is currently in the 'advance' probation period, if he doesn't use it according to the rules, he will not only suffer internal injuries, but will also reduce the countdown of his life given by the price.
That's why the system screams.
Xu Qingran was much calmer than him: "It's not a big problem."
"I know what's going on."
As he spoke, he slowly spread out his palm.
Then he clenched his fingers slightly, feeling the familiar sensation of electric current jumping between his fingers.
Xu Qingran lowered his eyes and curved them slightly.
He finally got back the superpowers that Xu Qingyao left for him.
amazing.
As long as he has this special power, he will have the courage to face everything, as if no matter how difficult the problem is, it can be easily solved.
System: “I don’t believe it!”
"Can this be the same?!"
Xu Qingran didn't respond to it.
He stood there alone for a long time, until the pain in his body was no longer so severe, then he carried Mu Ziyue, who had fainted on the ground, onto his shoulders, took him into the elevator with a cold expression, and slowly went down to the -3rd floor.
The underground third floor is very quiet.
There was no living person around, and dead bodies were lying everywhere he passed.
Except for a large room in the middle of a corridor.
It was one of the few ordinary rooms on the third floor, and was usually used as a rest area for employees. There was a door with a small window, and a large rectangular window that even a mental gun could not break.
The tower master and several staff members who were lucky enough not to be killed by Xu Qingran were locked inside by him.
It was a system lock, but they didn't know how he, an outsider, did it. Even the tower commander's universal card couldn't open the door.
Xu Qingran carried Mu Ziyue and walked past the room with an expressionless face.
He didn't even look at the people in the room.
Instead, the staff members who were trembling in the corner asked with wide eyes, "Is that the eldest prince?"
"Oh my God, what does Colonel Xu want to do to His Highness?"
What does Xu Qingran want to do
Of course, we should give people a taste of their own medicine.
·
Mu Ziyue was awakened by the pain.
Someone hit him hard on the head, waking him up.
When he opened his eyes, the madman Xu Qingran was standing next to him, looking down at him from a higher angle than he was. In his hand was a metal stick that he had pulled out from somewhere unknown, stained with blood, which seemed to echo the liquid slowly flowing down his forehead.
Just as Mu Ziyue was about to move, she found herself tied to a chair.
—The most common torture device in the evil tower is the electric chair.
He sneered at Xu Qingran: "Do you really think you can trap me?"
"All systems of the evil tower are under my control!"
As he spoke, he shouted to the voice recognition panel on the armrest of the electric chair: "Anna, unlock it for me right now!"
Anna is the name of the overall system of Tower 1.
Mu Ziyue's response was silence.
There was also Xu Qingran's sarcastic chuckle.
The confidence in Mu Ziyue's eyes gradually disappeared, and her tone was slightly more panicked: "Anna, I'll let you unlock it!"
Tower 1's system did not respond to him.
Until Xu Qingran slowly opened his mouth and called out, "Anna."
The system broadcast in the room responded instantly: "I'm here."
At this moment, Mu Ziyue finally couldn't hold back the expression on her face anymore.
Crash questioned: "Impossible... Impossible! This is the Empire's intelligent system. Only the royal family has the right to transfer control of the system. How can a mere colonel like you be qualified to change the sovereignty?!"
This is a right that even Mu Ziyu doesn’t have!
Xu Qingran looked at him, holding one hand in front of his chest and slightly raising the other hand. When he rubbed his thumb and index finger lightly, a crackling micro-electric current was emitted.
He chuckled and said, "Yeah, an intelligent system."
"As long as it needs electricity to run, then it's my toy."
Mu Ziyue was so angry that her eyes were bloodshot.
He struggled madly on the chair. However, this was originally a tool they designed to punish the strongest E-type, so how could he, a mere 3S-level, break free
Xu Qingran looked at the distorted expression on his face and suddenly said, "Mu Ziyue, I heard that you hate Type E."
Mu Ziyue sneered again: "Who wouldn't hate scum and trash like Type E who kills without blinking an eye and has an antisocial personality?"
"They should be locked up for life, so they don't go out and harm others... Yes, just like you, you should also be locked up in the evil tower, never to see the light of day for the rest of your life!"
"Really?" Xu Qingran said in a light tone, "Since you hate Type E so much, why do you still try to get closer to them?"
Mu Ziyue fell silent.
That eye was wide open and looked at Xu Qingran in disbelief, as if it was shocked at why he could see through its deepest thoughts!
Xu Qingran took in the changes in Mu Ziyue's expression.
The smile in her peach blossom eyes deepened a little.
really.
Just as he guessed.
Mu Ziyue is obviously a normal 3S-level psychic, so why is his personality as unpredictable, perverted and cruel as that of an E-type
Apart from being a soul-spiritual type, there is nothing about him that doesn't resemble an E type.
Because—he actually longs to be this type of person.
As a child of the royal family and with a strict mother like Su Ya, Mu Ziyue has been placed with high hopes since he was young.
He also wanted to become the most powerful E-type, because only absolute power could guarantee his status. So before his soul was formed, he had been imitating the E-type's behavior style, which was sinister, violent, ruthless, indifferent, cruel and neurotic.
But unfortunately, despite all his efforts, he was still just an ordinary N type in the end.
Even if they have a top-level 3S spiritual pool, they are still no match for the E-type who surpass 3S. This power comparison is especially evident after Shen Tingyu appears.
Although he is ten years younger than him, he has absolute dominance over him mentally!
That year in the palace, he tried to use his status as the eldest prince to suppress him and make him bow to him and become his "dog", but when he was beaten back, he felt unprecedented shame and resentment. Su Ya even punished him severely because he didn't beat Shen Tingyu.
So he hated Shen Tingyu.
He hated him and all Type E's for his entire life.
Because she can't do it, Mu Ziyue feels envious and jealous of people in this group.
When the obsession of this emotion became too strong, it began to twist. So the evil tower that he took control of began to become a place for him to vent his anger, and he took pleasure in torturing those E-types. Only by doing so could he feel the pleasure of stepping on these strong people.
—So what if you have the strongest mental power
Can't she only be humiliated by him, a prince of the empire
Thinking of this, Mu Ziyue laughed out loud.
Whispering: "The three years I tortured Shen Tingyu were the happiest days of my life, haha."
Xu Qingran smiled faintly.
There was a hint of coldness in his eyes.
Mu Ziyue hates Type E, but she especially hates Shen Tingyu among Type E.
There may be other reasons besides being beaten by him.
And Xu Qingran felt that he had probably guessed the reason.
He slowly moved his gaze to Mu Ziyue's eyes.
Mu Ziyue's eyes are emerald green like his mother's.
It’s a pity that the one on the right was destroyed and can only be covered with a black eye patch, otherwise it would have been a pair of beautiful eyes.
Xu Qingran observed for a while, raised the corners of his mouth, and suddenly stretched out his hand.
The fingertips gently touched Mu Ziyue's intact eye.
The sinister smile that had just appeared on Mu Ziyue's face suddenly disappeared.
After being injured by Shen Tingyu, he seemed to have a traumatic experience with his eyes, and was obviously worried that he would dig out his intact eye with his bare hands.
But Xu Qingran didn't do that.
She just used a feather-light force to draw his eyes, then stroked his nose along his face, and finally his mouth. This light and slow movement seemed to have a hint of tenderness, and for a moment the tense atmosphere became ambiguous.
This is Mu Ziyue's one-sided perspective.
He looked up at Xu Qingran, and suddenly fell into his smiling peach blossom eyes. In a trance, he realized for the first time that there was someone who could blend together these two very different temperaments: coldness and charm.
Mu Ziyue felt Xu Qingran's warm fingertips caressing his lips.
Uncontrollably, a surge of heat suddenly rushed somewhere.
Xu Qingran seemed to have discovered it as well.
She glanced away disdainfully, and when she looked at him again, there was a hint of sarcasm in her eyes.
Mu Ziyue's eyes and ears turned red with embarrassment.
—Although he hated the person in front of him, he couldn't resist the temptation and gave a shameful response to the person he hated.
After a while, Xu Qingran suddenly spoke.
Ask him: "Do you know where your face is most similar to his?"
Mu Ziyue was stunned again when he heard this.
After a few seconds, she gradually realized the deep meaning behind his question and frowned, "You..."
But Xu Qingran had no intention of letting him finish his words.
He interrupted, “Yes.”
“That’s the mouth.”
As Xu Qingran spoke, the corners of his mouth curled up again.
The smile in his eyes receded as quickly as the tide, and his voice gradually became as cold as hell: "So, just like you want to destroy his eyes, I will tear them apart too."
The electric current at his fingertips attacked Mu Ziyue's lips as his voice fell.
Together with his mental power, he easily created dozens of tiny cracks on it.
Mu Ziyue's eyes widened due to the pain she felt for a moment, and she subconsciously let out a furious shout.
His whole body was shaking. Because he was restrained, he couldn't make any big movements. He could only shake his head and struggle. Soon, he broke out in a cold sweat.
Xu Qingran patted his head and whispered, "Don't worry, this is just the beginning."
The gentleness in her tone was chilling: "I will take back everything you've done to him in the past, one by one, from you."
"Repay double."
