◎Is he informing me of the cause of my death◎
Gu Qi'an sat on the bed and looked at his body. The black-haired and black-eyed boy had his eyes tightly closed and his lips pursed, with a coldness that seemed to keep people at a distance.
If I had known that when he was creating his face for the comic book, I would not have taken the easy way out by just changing the hair and eye color. If he had created a sunny boy, how come the audience would fall silent after just a few words?
If he continues like this, when will he be able to enter the top five in popularity!
Just as he was regretting, his eyes suddenly spun. When he regained consciousness, he saw the familiar chandelier and felt the soft touch of the bed.
He...returned to his body?
Gu Qian'an sat up quickly and placed his hand on his chest in disbelief. His heart was beating slowly but strongly.
The sunlight coming in from the window shone on him, leaving a long, thin shadow on the ground, no longer passing straight through the soul body.
The ball used its energy to pinch a small firework tube. The crystal blue energy firework exploded in mid-air and then immediately returned to its body, saving the time for cleaning.
While celebrating, it explained to Gu Qian'an the reasons for all this. The different social background made Gu Qian'an a cool guy who was ruthless and taciturn in the comics, and he was very popular.
After paying back the reserve energy that was due this time, the remaining popularity value was enough for Gu Qian'an to survive for three days.
"That's great," Gu Qi'an couldn't help but sigh after understanding everything, "Not only do I not have to force myself to contact and chat with others, I can even earn popularity points."
Is there any better character setting for him than this?
But Yuanqiu looked at Gu Qian hesitantly, "There is bad news. Because the comic is from An Mo's perspective, most readers now think that you... are a villain."
According to the previous discussion between it and Gu Qian'an, after the first appearance, they will shape the character according to the expectations of most readers, so as to gain popularity as quickly as possible.
However, villain characters are very controversial, especially villains in popular comics. Their every word and action will attract a lot of discussion. It is a little worried that Gu Qian'an will be affected by some comments.
But Gu Qian'an himself doesn't care. Work is work and life is life.
You are scolding a comic character. What does it have to do with me, Gu Qi'an?
Besides, he just appeared in one episode, and his identity and position have not been completely determined.
While comforting Yuanqiu, he picked up his phone to order takeout.
Five days! He hasn’t eaten normal food for five days. Do you know how he spent these five days?
After eating and drinking, Gu Qian did not continue to stay in the real world. There is no difference in the flow of time between the comic world and the real world. In order to better achieve his goal, he must grasp everything that happens in the comic world as much as possible.
Soon, the sphere opened a passage.
…
The siege town outside the Black Tower Arena.
As one of the top three organizations in the world, the Black Tower naturally does not survive by doing shady business at night. During the day, the Black Tower provides a fair competition platform for superpowers from all over the world. The winner can not only obtain the rewards provided by the Black Tower, but also may be valued by the specialists sent by major cities to recruit superpowers, and soar to fame.
As a result, the Black Tower has a huge flow of people every day, and many merchants seize the opportunity to sell daily necessities again. Over time, an outer town composed of merchants has gradually formed nearby.
The moment Gu Qian'an walked out of the alley, he felt something was wrong.
Admittedly, the energy-enhanced body has an excellent appearance and temperament, and the rare hair and eye color is eye-catching enough in the sun, but it will definitely not lead to the current result.
The merchant was talking incessantly about his own products, but his eyes were always looking in his direction.
The child was tugging at his mother's clothes and asking for snacks, but his eyes were secretly glancing at him.
The psychics were walking together, discussing their results in the arena. Even though they had walked past him, they seemed to turn their heads and look at him inadvertently.
Although the movements were very small, Gu Qian'an, who was extremely sensitive to other people's gazes, discovered at the first moment that everyone in the outer town was moving their gazes as he moved.
It's very strange, because everyone seems to be doing their own normal things, but you know they are watching you.
The sphere immediately started the energy scan, moving through the entire town at an extremely fast speed, and then communicating the results to Gu Qian'an mentally.
"It's the effect of supernatural powers. They are all attached to the same energy. The preliminary conclusion is that they are an S-rank... Hey, are you hiding somewhere else? Where?"
The ball was still a little confused until it found its hiding place according to Gu Qian'an's remote instructions.
'We are all here for the first time in the Outer Town, right? How did you find a place that is hidden from everyone so quickly?'
Gu Qianan stood in the corner and took a while to explain. He had always known that he had social phobia. Although he could go out and do things normally, he was extremely afraid of becoming the focus of other people's attention. Being noticed by more than three people would make him panic and fearful.
But life had to go on, and he began to learn to find blind spots to avoid other people's sight, memorize all the terrain as quickly as possible when arriving at a new space, lighten his steps to reduce his presence and erase all traces when leaving. He also taught himself simple self-defense, trauma treatment, lock picking and a series of other essential life skills on the Internet.
So after arriving at the outer town, the first thing he did subconsciously was to look for the best hiding place, which allowed him to escape from the hell where everyone was watching.
Yuanqiu listened to Gu Qian'an's explanation of his efforts to live alone without being noticed by many people in a daze. 'Is this... social phobia in the high-latitude world?'
"You also think it's hard for a person with social anxiety to live alone, right?" Gu Qi'an couldn't help but complain, "In a society where people live together, it's not easy to avoid being noticed."
Whenever you go out, there will always be someone who will unconsciously cast his eyes on you. Even if it is just a slight glance, it will feel like a thorn in the back for him.
But things are different now. He can't hide in this small space forever, and he really wants the energy of the S-level psychics in the residents.
So Gu Qi'an looked at the ball with great affection, "Will you be my eyes?"
Ball: Huh?
…
It was a bad idea. The opponent turned out to be a high-level psychic!
Li Qiao sat in a wheelchair, his eyes full of solemnity. Through the eyes of the puppet on the ground, he clearly saw the whole process of what happened.
The unknown strong man noticed something was wrong the moment he appeared and quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.
But the other party and the puppet had been staring at each other for more than three seconds.
Li Qiao's superpowers are very powerful. By making eye contact for three seconds, he can turn any superpower user with a lower level than him into his puppet. After the manipulation is successful, the puppet can use his superpowers as long as he wants.
As the master of the Black Tower, Li Qiao is an S-class psychic.
In other words, the silver-haired boy who is immune to his superpowers is at least S-level!
He had just attacked an S-class warrior, and fear gradually filled Li Qiao's heart.
Although his supernatural powers are powerful, they limit him to a weak body and he can only move around in a wheelchair.
The other people in the black tower could not stop an S-level psychic at all. If he had annoyed the other party just now, today would be his death!
The puppet saw the other party again. The silver-haired boy closed his eyes. The powerful perception of a high-level psychic allowed him to stroll around the town even though he couldn't see.
As the boy walked, the supernatural power in Li Qiao's body continued to dissipate, and the puppets lost contact with him one by one.
But he felt a little relaxed in his heart, because the opponent did not kill him directly in the black tower, but only attacked his puppets, which proved that the opponent gave him a chance to redeem himself.
But why does the other party close his eyes?
For people with low levels of superpowers, the only way to avoid Li Qiao's superpowers is to close your eyes and not look at anyone. After all, you have no way of knowing whether the person passing by is Li Qiao's puppet.
But his special ability was clearly ineffective against this powerful man.
No!
In an instant, everything connected in Li Qiao's mind, and he finally figured it all out.
——The other party was warning him.
Closing my eyes doesn't mean that I know the weakness of your supernatural powers, but that I know your weaknesses.
What are Liqiao's weaknesses?
It was his frail body and the plans he was carrying out.
In this plan that only benefits Li Qiao, one of the victims is An Mo, who was just sent in by the Lord of Dingyuan City!
Yes, the other party broke into the Black Tower and rescued An Mo yesterday, and it was obvious that he cared about An Mo. However, because of the wrong feedback given by Zhenshan, he mistakenly thought that the other party was not worth mentioning and directly added An Mo into the plan.
After figuring this out, Li Qiao finally felt relieved and immediately asked the puppet to invite the other party.
…
Gu Qian'an was very panicked. He really didn't understand why Li Qiao wanted to see him.
In his and Roundball's plan, the other party would let their men deal with him instead of doing it themselves.
After all, high-level psychics have already stood at the pinnacle of the "Alien" world. No matter what their personality is, arrogance is always their common point. Middle and low-level psychics are not worth their efforts at all.
Furthermore, it is mentioned in the comics that Li Qiao has difficulty walking and never leaves the top floor of the Black Tower easily.
However, Gu Qian'an had overlooked one point. Although it was inconvenient for the other party to come down, he could ask someone to take Gu Qian'an up.
The lifting power stopped at the tenth floor. Thirty meters was already the limit for this psychic, but the next second another psychic of the same type took over.
"I'm so jealous," Gu Qianan said, looking at the constantly rotating superpowers, "If I had so many subordinates, I wouldn't have to go out again in my life."
Yuanqiu couldn't help but criticize him, "Do you have any ideals? With so many superpowers obeying you, you just want to stay at home every day?"
As they were complaining to each other to ease the tension, the waiter beside them suddenly said, "Our master really likes people like you who have extraordinary abilities."
After being controlled by Li Qiao for so many years, the waiter's facial nerves were already somewhat out of control, but he still tried to smile as gently as possible.
Although I don't know the origin of this vaguely uneasy boy, since he is valued by adults, it's always right for him to do well.
However……
'He is informing me of the cause of my death, right?' Looking at the other party's weird smile, Gu Qi'an couldn't help but think, 'Because my ability is very rare, Li Qiao wants to make me into a puppet?'
Although he knew he might have to confront Li Qiao when he chose to follow the servant into the black tower, he still felt a sinking feeling in his heart when he actually got the answer.
After all, he is a genuine S-class psychic.
