Chapter 761: Innate Talent 'Mind Reading'?! Ji Huai's Conspiracy!

~7 min read 1,314 words

From the beginning until now, Su Yang truly hasn't played the same Death Game.

He also hasn't mentioned anyone having a similar experience.

I thought every Death Game was unique.

But who would have thought the Short-haired Woman would bluntly state the truth.

If that's really the case, a New Era player facing this situation would see their odds drop by several percent.

Calling it a Dimensional Reduction Strike is not an exaggeration at all!

"No wonder... no wonder Ji Huai chose the map and bought items on his own; so all of this was part of his plan!" Su Yang instantly felt a chilling realization.

It turns out that from the very start, the moment Ji Huai saw the game title, he already plotted how to set a trap to kill himself.

Just as Su Yang wondered, Ji Huai had many opportunities to kill him.

Yet he chose not to act.

When the two first met, he showed no hint of hostility.

On the contrary, he greeted him very kindly.

First, he used this method to lower Su Yang's guard, then used the pretext of buying items to appropriately highlight the awkward situation of insufficient Star Coins, leaving each person with only a Walkie-talkie and a Flashlight.

He knew clearly that a Rocket delivering cargo would inevitably arouse everyone's suspicion.

He took the initiative to dispel concerns and created an Information Gap anxiety among the crowd.

While people were fighting over the Walkie-talkie to the point of bloodied heads, he seized the chance to enter the building and look for an opening.

Then…

At this point, Su Yang suddenly recalled what Ji Huai said over the Walkie-talkie, and suddenly snapped, "That beast set a trap for me!"

On the surface it seemed a plea for help, but in fact it was bait to make Su Yang open his mouth.

So, either Ji Huai's Innate Talent is to track people, or it's that Xiao Pangzi beside him!

"One loop traps another, what a deep scheme!" Su Yang furrowed his brows.

Not exaggerating, if the Short-haired Woman hadn't arrived, his corpse would already have been stiff.

"No wonder he's Yue Zhao's Military Advisor; his brain really works well," Su Yang sneered inwardly.

No direct clash needed; a slight trick already makes him unbeatable.

Xiao Hei + Springhead, one must be watched, the other must not be looked at.

It's a match made in heaven.

When he rushed to Su Yang's side, the closed loop was already formed!

"Don't worry, with me here, he can't kill you," the Short-haired Woman said.

Su Yang was startled, looking at her back, he asked in confusion, "How is it that you seem to know what I'm thinking?"

The Short-haired Woman turned back, her eyes deep, "You're not wrong; my Innate Talent is 'Mind Reading'!"

What?!

Su Yang's eyes widened, his legs felt as if filled with lead, unable to move.

It turns out to be…

Mind Reading?!

Doesn't that mean—

"I know your plan after returning to the Spaceship; I advise you to give up that thought, because if you do, you'll expose the only Hole Card completely," the Short-haired Woman said.

"You know my Innate Talent?" Su Yang furrowed his brows, a strange hue flashing in his eyes.

"I said I can 'Mind Read', don't think any fancy Intestine tricks in front of me," the Short-haired Woman said calmly.

"Who exactly are you?"

"Didn't you already have the answer in your mind? Why ask more?"

"Are you the one sent by Yao Ri sister?"

"Yao Ri... sister?"

The Short-haired Woman's expression turned odd, then she revealed a breathtaking smile.

"That's a fine title, let's call it that for now."

It really is?!

Su Yang subconsciously licked his dry lips, a Vibration stirring inside him.

No wonder she saved me; she was sent by a Backer.

Everything now makes sense.

Beside them, Lu Zhiwei was bewildered, looking left and right, "What are you talking about? I understand each word, but why does it sound so confusing when combined?"

The Short-haired Woman gave no reply, merely continued to lead the way.

In her view, befriending and chatting with Lu Zhiwei was an extreme waste of time and saliva.

If she weren't Su Yang's high school classmate, she would never have given her the slightest attention.

"Hey, why aren't you speaking either, isolating me?" Lu Zhiwei said angrily.

"What?" Su Yang snapped back.

"Forget it, I won't tell you, I'm just making it boring for myself," Lu Zhiwei pursed her lips, turning her face away.

Su Yang was just organizing his thoughts when his Brain suddenly glitched.

It turns out Yao Ri sister had been watching his every move from behind.

Even the enemy's schemes couldn't escape her eyes.

She seemed able to foresee the future, knowing Su Yang would encounter danger and preparing in advance.

The Old Era Remnant Faction, with its advanced version, was already overwhelmingly powerful, making it hard for the current Su Yang to contend with.

Recalling the "Shortcut" Huang Hua mentioned.

Challenge a single era alone.

At present, it doesn't look simple, even Hell-level Difficulty.

"If her Innate Talent is 'Mind Reading', then the earlier 'Voidification'?" Su Yang lifted his gaze.

"You also have the title skill, don't you?"

Su Yang remained silent, instinctively checking her information.

"Player Su Qi—Zero Star Coin."

"Stop!"

At that moment, Su Qi gestured, crouched, and looked toward the slope's summit.

There, a thirty‑meter‑tall Forest Giant was prowling near the Spaceship.

Su Yang glanced in that direction and saw four or five people hiding inside the Spaceship.

They huddled together, curled in a corner, not daring to make a sound.

Among them, Qin Yu Zhou stood out in the list!

"That kid actually escaped?" Su Yang sneered inwardly.

Su Qi surveyed the situation and said, "The Forest Giant is deaf, but its Vision Perception is excellent, so when we move later, try to find cover as much as possible."

Su Yang glanced at the two massive eyes on the giant's chest, and gave a slight nod.

"Waiting like this now isn't a solution; someone needs to lure the giant away," Su Qi said, glancing back, her gaze subtly flicking over Lu Zhiwei's face.

"Me?" Lu Zhiwei exclaimed in surprise.

"Thanks for the trouble, when you run, try not to go in a straight line," Su Qi pushed Lu Zhiwei outward.

She hadn't even reacted, and her whole body was already fully exposed in the Forest Giant's line of sight.

"Roar!"

In the next instant, the giant charged at her, and everything in its path shattered with a thunderous crash, even multi‑ton boulders were crushed under its foot.

Such terrifying might left everyone in awe.

"I'm going!"

Lu Zhiwei startled, immediately ran in the opposite direction, shouting while running, "Su Yang, you must save me, otherwise even as a ghost I won't let you go!"

When the voice faded, Su Qi grabbed Su Yang's wrist and said, "Go!"

The two sprinted at full speed, covering several hundred meters in an instant.

Just as the Spaceship seemed within reach, a wicked wind suddenly blew from behind.

Su Qi's figure halted, pulling Su Yang into a rapid retreat.

"Buzz—!"

"Su Yang, I've brought a gift back for you!"

Turning around, he saw Lin Jin oddly holding a metallic Honeycomb in his hands.

Behind them, a massive swarm of Electric Current‑emitting bees pursued relentlessly.

"For you!"

Saying that, Lin Jin hurled the Honeycomb toward them.

Then he leapt into a nearby thicket.

Su Yang didn't reach out to catch it; the Honeycomb suddenly fell beside his foot.

"Buzz——"

The bees, as if maddened, flew desperately toward him.

The sizzling Electric Current, like high voltage, could be felt tingling in the body even from a great distance.

Su Yang's mouth twitched, and he rigidly turned his head to look at Su Qi,

"Qi Jie, what now?"
