Chapter 718: Shameless to the Extreme! New Entry—'Forbidden Healing'!

…

"Shameless to the extreme!"

After hearing Zhuge Chen's detailed statement, Lin Yang gained a completely new understanding of Yue Zhao.

"All talk of benevolence and morality, but actually a belly full of foul water."

"And he still talks about a Utopia where everyone is equal? Building a perfect world?"

"Bah! How can he not speak of equality when he treats people as objects to give to Jiang Chengyu?"

"And that Jiang fellow too, a fool who thinks entirely with his lower body!" Lin Yang muttered angrily.

The others wore solemn faces; through Zhuge Chen's description they glimpsed a brand‑new world.

"Continent? Could it be that the rule derivations of their era have already reached a new realm?" Qin Weiyang asked curiously.

"Have you discovered a pattern? Every four Death Games we change the place of imprisonment; the Island might just be one of the Middle Transfer Stations?" Luo Shuangshuang said.

"There are hundreds of Dependents, yet when Jiang Chengyu first arrived, over a thousand surrounded him; could it be that Yue Zhao is actually just a minor commander?" Lu Junsheng opened.

"And their Dependents' miraculous techniques, raising skyscrapers from flat ground—this shouldn't be achievable by ordinary Innate Talent ranks, right?" Yu Ning looked at Su Yang.

Regarding their doubts, Su Yang perhaps had a conjecture.

"Yue Zhao may have seen through my scheme; he doesn't believe Jiang Chengyu would develop a vengeful heart because of it," Su Yang said calmly.

"His purpose in sending him over was simply to make him a catalyst?" Lin Yang's mind stirred.

"Most likely yes; Yue Zhao has a human face but a beast's heart, appears affable but is actually scheming and treacherous, extremely adept at manipulating people." Su Yang nodded slightly.

"Then aren't our plans exposed?" Qin Weiyang's eyes flashed with worry.

"Not quite; Jiang Chengyu should now be in the Investigation Stage, and Yue Zhao won't let him access core secrets, so he uses desire‑filling to make him a Golden Canary!" Su Yang said.

"Brother Zhuge's Innate Talent may know all things, but it's based on New Era Player cognition and what they've seen, so does Jiang Chengyu's departure still have value?" Ximen Zhirou asked.

Su Yang gathered his thoughts, and said slowly: "As long as a person lives, they have value; before a better method of invading the New Era is found, he will not die!"

"Tsk tsk, Yue Zhao can easily see through Jiang's weakness and had already prepared a gift in advance."

"In this situation, even someone whose body is in Cao's camp but heart in Han would be delighted beyond thought!" Lin Yang shook his head and said.

"One building, a few women bought him off? That can't be, right…?" Ximen Zhirou was utterly perplexed.

"Desire is a weakness in this world; there should be players around Yue Zhao who can perceive desire and strike precisely," Su Yang speculated.

"That said, could Jiang Chengyu truly bear a grudge? If he really defects, it wouldn't be good for us," Qin Weiyang worried.

"At least for now he hasn't exposed the Wan Shi Tong matter," Su Yang whispered.

"Desire?" Ximen Zhirou frowned, "I haven't seen any power in it; could Jiang Chengyu be deliberately rehearsing?"

"He's still acting?" Lin Yang sprang up, "This guy's head is attached to his lower body; he can't wait to give more!"

"What they call 'grasping' is merely precisely finding what he wants." Su Yang looked at the thoughtful Lu Junsheng,

"Take Sheng Ge as an example: if Yue Zhao could resurrect his wife and two children, the family would live carefree in a Villa."

"No need to fear the Death Game's threats, nor worry about scheming, no need to fret about livelihood."

"I ask… could anyone be moved?"

Upon hearing that, Lu Junsheng immediately came to his senses, suddenly startled.

He gave no answer.

Seeing that, Su Yang continued: "Human nature is complex, each person a thousand faces; Sheng Ge's progress relies not solely on survival instinct."

"Or that saying, if a person lives without hope, a long life is meaningless."

"Death is the simplest; living as oneself is the hard part."

"Jiang Chengyu has been kidnapped here for less than a year, still lacking a sense of belonging to this world; he used to be an ordinary office worker."

"His lifelong dream may be to own an office building, be his own boss, and never be driven by others."

"Yue Zhao can give him the life he imagined; may I ask everyone… who can resist the temptation?"

Facing Su Yang's words, Lin Yang muttered: "Anyway, I put righteousness first, the rest I don't care about."

Su Yang smiled, "Everyone pursues different things, so what they want differs; that's why Yue Zhao didn't pick you."

Seeing the silence, Su Yang took the initiative to break it: "Let's stop talking about this and start evolving."

Lin Yang immediately reacted, clapped his hands and said: "We haven't used the 400 Faith Value we obtained yet!"

Recalling this, he hurried to fetch the remote and displayed the gambling rewards on the Screen.

The winner of the gamble can claim all the opponent's Dependents.

At the same time, based on the Ascend God seed's evolution level, they can obtain corresponding Evolution Points.

And everyone can benefit!

"Four hundred each; now we can probably push into the Second Tier," Lin Yang chuckled.

This Human Blood Mantou just looks delicious to think about.

"Begin!" Lin Yang pressed the Confirm button.

The next moment, clumps of Golden Light surged from the Screen, flowing into the seven players' bodies.

Different Innate Talent evolutions yield different feedback.

Take Yu Ning, whose Innate Talent just upgraded from Second Tier to Third Tier, the pain of the process being greater than before.

She twisted her face grotesquely, occasionally emitting several sharp cries.

Like human, not human!

As for Lin Yang, it was the complete opposite.

He felt his whole body as if soaking in a hot spring, comfortable and pleasant, occasionally making odd sounds.

"Ah oh~"

"Shut your dog mouth!" Qin Weiyang coldly rebuked.

Lin Yang heard that, his eyelid twitched, and he immediately fell silent.

Compared with the two people's vastly different extreme sensations, Lu Junsheng and Luo Shuangshuang were rather ordinary.

The two of them didn't feel anything at all.

Not even a hint of any other taste.

As for Su Yang…

His Innate Talent is now at Third Tier, and 400 Faith Value is only enough for half the upgrade progress.

Zhuge Chen and the other two could only watch anxiously from the side.

Hopeful colors flickered in their eyes.

At one time, they too had hoped for such a scene.

Unfortunately, the newly added Dependents could not partake in this stage.

They could only watch them treat their former direct superior as a stepping stone, climbing upward step by step.

After ten minutes, the Evolution was essentially finished.

"'Self-Healing' Second Tier actually got an extra Entry!" Luo Shuangshuang suddenly exclaimed.

"What effect?" Su Yang asked.

Luo Shuangshuang examined closely, then spat out two words: "'Healing Ban'!"
