Chapter 4: Discrepancies



◎They reached a consensus◎

The top floor of the Black Tower was very quiet. Apart from the attendant who led Gu Qian'an, there was no one in the entire corridor.

This kind of environment actually made him feel very comfortable, allowing him to calm down and think about the current situation.

Just now in the outer town, the ineffectiveness of Li Qiao's supernatural power made Gu Qian'an discover one thing - he was immune to all supernatural attacks.

After all, the essence of supernatural attacks is the release of energy, and he can absorb all the energy he comes into contact with.

But in the comic world, there are only two possibilities for an attack to be ineffective: the opponent's supernatural power restrains you or the opponent's level is at least the same as yours.

Although there were only a few mentions of Li Qiao in the previous updates, this was enough for Gu Qian'an to analyze Li Qiao's choice - he would only recognize the second possibility.

Li Qiao would never admit that the supernatural power that took away his health and the right to walk freely could be restrained by others.

After figuring this out, Gu Qian heaved a sigh of relief.

As long as he operates properly, he can escape unscathed from Li Qiao as an S-class psychic!

Thinking of this, Gu Qinan kept recalling the comic characters he had read, and tried hard to mobilize his facial muscles in the blind spot of the servant.

"Yuanqiu, do you think I have the demeanor of a strong man who is three parts indifferent, three parts mocking, and four parts nonchalant? Can I shock Li Qiao?"

The ball had given up on calling it by Zhenzheng Gu Qi'an. It looked at the strange expression on the boy's delicate face and couldn't help but dodge back, "You know what, it looks like there's something wrong with your facial nerves. If you keep this up, you might really scare Li Qiao."

After hearing this, Gu Qi'an couldn't help but wilted, "What should I do? I can't act at all."

No matter what, the fact that Li Qiao was able to become an S-class psychic despite his frail body shows that he has extremely powerful mental and scheming skills.

If Gu Qian'an showed any flaws, the other party would definitely find out.

"It's okay. If we can't fool Li Qiao, we can still escape. He will just send people to hunt us down," Yuanqiu comforted him. "It's just that no matter what you do, there will be people watching you in the dark. In order to test your weaknesses, they will keep talking to you."

As the ball continued to speak, Gu Qian'an's expression became colder and colder, and the aura that kept people at a distance became stronger and stronger.

With the demeanor of a complete strong man, the ball shook itself with satisfaction and said, as long as the right medicine is used, there is no one in this world who can't act.

The reception room is divided into two parts by a large glass wall. The outside is where guests sit, and the inside is a sterile room.

Li Qiao cannot leave the glass houses. He has no immune system and any bacteria will kill him.

"I'm sorry for offending you unintentionally," he said in a humble tone. "This is the Black Tower's VIP letter. Use it and you can experience the highest level of enjoyment in the world in the Black Tower."

Li Qiao pressed the button on the wheelchair, and a black gilded guest letter appeared in front of Gu Qian'an.

When he mentioned the organization he founded, his pale face became brighter.

Gu Qianan leaned back in his chair, trying his best to put himself into the role he wanted to play.

Although S-class psychics have only just begun to enter the high-level ranks, in the comic world, they have already stood at the top, and the royal family has allocated a large amount of land just to recruit them.

Would such a person be offended by being dismissed with a casual guest letter?

Gu Qian'an moved his fingertips slightly, and the invitation letter fell to the ground in an instant.

"Is this your sincerity?" His expression was very cold. "It's just a piece of waste paper."

This was naked contempt, and Li Qiao's expression changed instantly.

The high-level psychics in this world have such an extremely self-centered personality. Under the premise that Li Qiao already has a strong filter for him, the more arrogant and presumptuous he is, the more wary Li Qiao becomes.

But this is the truth. When he really devalued the things that Li Qiao cherished, the guilt that followed was still overwhelming.

Gu Qian'an has always been a gentle person. He once walked two kilometers home carrying fruits he bought from somewhere else because he was afraid that the owner of the fruit shop near his home would be unhappy.

Even if Li Qiao is a villain, the offensiveness of his words just now has exceeded his self-acceptance threshold.

Gu Qian'an looked at Li Qiao's clenched hands on the wheelchair, but he still managed to maintain a gentle mask.

"Of course not," Li Qiao's smile was very stiff. "To express my apology, I will eliminate An Mo from the competition as soon as possible. Don't worry, I will definitely ensure his safety."

Li Qiao believed that he was very sincere. Not only did he keep a very humble attitude, he also promised to protect the safety of the people the other party was concerned about. However, this proposal was still not accepted.

"No need!" Gu Qian'an refused without hesitation.

Li Qiao's words just now scared Yuanqiu. How could he drive the protagonist out of the Novice Village?

The Black Tower is the first chapter of "Alien Species", which is also the novice village belonging to Anmer.

The competition held in the Novice Village is an upgrade experience package given to Anmo.

If Li Qiao put his words into practice, An Mo would die because he could not improve his strength, and Gu Qian would be abandoned by readers because of this incident, and his popularity would plummet and he would not be able to be resurrected.

"Killing two birds with one stone, what a vicious villain." Yuanqiu couldn't help but sigh.

But Gu Qianan did not agree with his complaints. He was carefully considering his words, trying his best to ensure that he would not cause a butterfly effect that would affect An Mo's growth. "There is no need to drive him away, as long as he doesn't die in the game."

Gu Qian'an felt a little tired. Admittedly, Li Qiao's brain supplement provided him with a lot of conveniences, but this kind of uncontrolled jumping thinking almost caused him to die suddenly again.

Li Qiao was stunned when he heard this. If he continued to participate in the competition, it would mean that the other party had tacitly agreed to An Mo's participation in this plan. But if so, what was the other party warning him about before?

Suddenly, Li Qiao thought of another possibility. What if the other party's appearance was to ensure that An Mo could become the final sacrifice?

An Mo's information quickly flashed through his mind. He was a D-level healing psychic who could transfer the vitality of a human body to another person.

Regardless of the level, Anmer's ability is indeed very suitable.

Li Qiao looked at the silver-haired boy who looked a little tired after just saying a few words, and he became more certain of his guess.

The opponent is definitely the same as him, with powerful superpowers and a weak body, and also needs the competition platform to select the most suitable healing superpower user to carry out the plan.

"I understand what you mean," Li Qiao replied confidently, "Please rest assured, I will take care of everything."

Gu Qian'an secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. Li Qiao was able to develop the Black Tower into one of the top three organizations in the world within two years. His comprehension and execution abilities must be extraordinary. With his guarantee, at least An Mo would be safe in the competition.

After reaching a consensus, neither of them wanted to continue the idle chat.

Gu Qian'an stopped his servants from following him and walked in the black tower with the ball.

Although the ball can sense An Mo's physical condition, in order to avoid some emergencies, he decided to stay in the black tower for the time being.

The most urgent task now is to understand the internal structure of the black tower and find all the blind spots to ensure that Gu Qian'an can move freely.

Fortunately, the black tower can be modeled after the spherical scan, so Gu Qian'an does not need to remember every detail of this hundred-story building himself, which saves him a lot of effort.

As they walked, the model gradually took shape. The sphere even marked the amount of supernatural power in each area to prevent Gu Qian'an from encountering a strong enemy without knowing it.

The floors began to get lower, and soon the ball surveyed the third floor, which was where the contestants lived.

Today's competitions have all ended, and most of the contestants have returned to their rooms to rest. The entire floor is shrouded in the night and is extremely quiet.

The ball flew into the air and kept changing its position to scan. Gu Qian'an walked slowly, scanning the names marked on each house number out of boredom.

"This is Anmer's room," he pointed at a door and looked at the ball, "Mark this room carefully."

The ball floated up and down to indicate a nod, and some adjustments to the modeling began. Gu Qian'an also raised his feet and prepared to leave.

However, at this moment, An Mo's face suddenly appeared in his sight. In an instant, Gu Qian'an used all his strength to suppress the scream that had already reached his throat.

Why! The door of the black tower! There was no sound when it was opened!

He was caught off guard, his brain racing to think of something to say, but in this emergency, his mind went blank and he couldn't say a word.

Fortunately, An Mo was a young man who was good at breaking the dull atmosphere. He suddenly closed his eyes and fell forward.

Gu Qian'an quickly reached out to catch the person, so as to prevent An Mo's already amnesiac brain from being hit again.

The next second, a surging force rushed into Gu Qian'an's body along the point where the two people were in contact.

Gu Qi'an frowned. He had seen An Mo use his supernatural powers in the underground. The dazzling green color was full of vitality, but now the energy emanating from An Mo was crystal blue.

And as the energy was gradually absorbed by Gu Qian'an, the painful expression on An Mo's face gradually eased.

"Ball, quickly scan An Mo's body." He couldn't observe energy properly with his naked eyes, so he could only seek help from the ball.

However, the ball, which was usually quick to react, was now stunned in mid-air, concentrating on looking at the crystal blue color emanating from it, and it did not come back to its senses even after being called several times.

Seeing this scene, Gu Qian'an suddenly had a bad feeling.
