"Just who exactly is this Truman?"
Looking at the surveillance footage, Lin Yuxi suddenly felt anxious: "Even Lin Nai can't do anything about him?"
Tang Hongshan lit a cigarette, seemingly already familiar with the man's name. He narrowed his eyes and slowly said, "He is the most anticipated seed player of the Confucian Academy this year."
"It is said that he is a super genius with S-level talent. He comes from a Confucian family and is well-versed in poetry and classics, but he is even more skilled in mathematical calculations. Before each battle with an opponent, he will make thorough preparations, collect information about the opponent, conduct in-depth research and analysis, and find out every weakness of the opponent."
"Moreover, it is said that he has never lost to any of his peers from childhood to adulthood."
Yang Xiaochuan's eyes widened in astonishment: "She's never lost to any of her peers since she was a child?! Then... then Lin Nai is doomed if he sets his sights on her?!"
"state!"
Lin Yuxi punched him on the head, angrily saying, "What kind of pathetic talk is that?! He's never lost to someone his age, but Lin Nai has, right? Lin Nai can even fight opponents of higher levels! Three or four levels higher! What's so great about his achievements compared to our Lin Nai?!"
Yang Xiaochuan rubbed the bump on his head and said, looking aggrieved, "I...I'm sorry..."
Ah Guang scratched his head: "But this guy's ability is a bit weird... What's his supernatural profession called?"
Tang Hongshan's eyes were serious as he slowly said, "Extraordinary Serial Number 12 - Phantom Writer."
......
Linnae activated the Gray Eyes.
Within his vision, he could see through the illusion that the "Truman" before him had no soul; he was merely an empty shell.
So Linnai used himself as the center and looked around.
But they didn't see the real Truman anywhere.
It seems his true form isn't here...
"I know that your eye technique is called 'Grey Nether Eye,' right?"
Truman watched as Linnaeus's eyes turned silver-gray: "You should be able to see through those eyes that there is no soul in my body, only a visible phantom."
Linna: "You really did put in some effort for me, huh?"
Truman: "Of course. You need to understand your opponent to defeat them. I've investigated all your publicly available combat records, and I even spent money to buy your live combat videos, which I've studied carefully over a thousand times. I not only understand your Apostle abilities, but I also know your little combat habits very well."
"..." Lin Nai was stunned: "More than a thousand times? You really have the time?"
“For me, this is nothing, it’s the simplest thing,” Truman said with a smile. “I can do a lot more in a day than other people.”
Lin Nai asked curiously, "Oh?"
Truman said, "I can create hundreds of phantom clones that can do different things at the same time. Because whatever these hundreds of phantom clones see, hear, remember, or learn, the knowledge and experience they gain will be shared with my original body. So, while others may only be able to read one book a day, I can read more than a hundred. What takes others a year to learn something, I can probably do in just one day."
Lin Nai stared in disbelief: "You...your master is Naruto, right??"
"Who is Naruto?" Truman asked, puzzled.
"......"
Lin Nai forgot that this was another world, not Earth. There was no Hokage in this world, so of course they didn't know Naruto.
"Similarly, phantom clones can do even more."
Truman counted on his fingers, explaining to Linnai with a very patient attitude: "For example, right now, I'm using hundreds of clones to monitor different players at the same time. These players are all seeded players that I'm paying attention to."
"Besides you, there's Hua Lingze from Kyoto University, Mu Xun from Guigu School, Bai Liao from Zecheng High School, Bai Shui from the Daoist school, Lu Xiaoda from the Mohist school, and so on..."
"I can use these clones to follow them at all times, recording their combat data, habits, daily routines... Then, they'll probably find me annoying, but they just can't get rid of me, because I'm just a phantom clone to begin with."
"Oh right, if my interference can cause them to underperform in the competition and be eliminated early, that would be the best outcome. That's one of my tactics. However, the probability of this happening is usually less than 0.3%, so I can only bother them for a while at most."
"......"
Lin Nai's lips twitched.
What kind of outrageous person is this...?
Truman laughed and said, "So I think you shouldn't try to drive me away. Hitting me won't do any good. Even if you kill me, I'm just a phantom."
Lin Nai took a deep breath and then said, "Okay... if you want to come with me, then come with me."
"As long as you can keep up with me!"
After saying that, Lin Nai suddenly leaped onto the roof of the house next to him.
Then, he made several quick flashes, leaping over rooftop after roof with incredible speed.
In just a few breaths, he had darted more than a thousand meters.
Lin Nai was about to turn around to see if Truman was following behind.
However, he heard Truman's voice coming from ahead...
