Chapter 4949. Don’t be impatient!
Xu Zhi really didn't feel the atmosphere that Zhong Lingfan deliberately created. When she was in her spiritual body, she always had the mentality of "What can you do to me?", which made her feel almost no awe.
After Zhong Lingfan finished speaking, she looked at Xu Zhi, waiting for her response. Unexpectedly, the first words of this unprepossessing girl shocked her.
"Professor Zhong, have you finished your research report on the new extraordinary?"
What?
Zhong Lingfan was rarely stunned. How did this girl know?
She had never seen this person in the institute before, and since she was not a member of the institute, she should not know about this.
Xu Zhi's nonsensical words easily broke the atmosphere created by Zhong Lingfan, bringing the two of them to the same level. Even Xu Zhi's expression at this moment was particularly sincere, as if the question she asked was just a question to ask Zhong Lingfan if he had eaten.
It was a strange feeling. Xu Zhi found that he could tell from Zhong Lingfan's subtle expression that she was very surprised.
Is this the insight of Lv3?
"How do you know? Sit down and talk first." Zhong Lingfan made a gesture of invitation.
Xu Zhi was not polite and sat down as she wished. After she sat down, Haidongqing also adjusted its posture slightly and landed next to Xu Zhi's hand.
"Someone told me. Can you show me the research report? I'd like to exchange it."
Xu Zhi was not stupid. Even though she didn't interact much with others, she knew that she couldn't directly ask questions like "I want to know if you have finished writing it." It was normal for her to ask to see the research report on the extraordinary people. After all, with such a huge change, who wouldn't want to know more?
Zhong Lingfan had no doubts about this. She was just confused about who the "someone told her" that Xu Zhi mentioned was.
She first looked at Xiao Zhen with great concern, and then she said to Xu Zhi:
"It's not that I can't show it to you, but there are significant differences between today's extraordinary people and those in the past. I'm still researching this, so this report is not complete."
"But even if it's imperfect, it's still very valuable. I wonder what you can offer in exchange?"
Although Zhong Lingfan was more assertive, she didn't want to do anything to Xu Zhi. Rather, Xu Zhi's background was suspicious, so she needed to be more vigilant and wanted to give Xu Zhi a warning. However, this little girl didn't buy it at all.
"Um"
Xu Zhi pondered for a while, then opened the [Eye of Insight] in front of Zhong Lingfan. He closed it the moment he saw clearly, and then showed a look of surprise.
"What did you see?" Even though someone used his supernatural powers directly in front of him, Zhong Lingfan remained calm and was not angry.
Xu Zhi didn't hide it: "I see your attributes, Miss Deng."
This was exactly what surprised her. Zhong Lingfan was the first extraordinary person with the [Light] attribute she had seen.
"Your extraordinary ability is more than just a clone. You have two extraordinary abilities?"
Although Zhong Lingfan's tone seemed calm, the fact that she asked this question was enough to show her surprise at Xu Zhi.
Xu Zhi blinked at her: "Maybe more than that?"
How is that possible?
This doesn't conform to the rules she has researched.
Zhong Lingfan was speechless for a moment, lowering his eyes and thinking for a long time. Then he slowly said, "How about exchanging your true purpose for coming to us?"
"Is it that simple?" Xu Zhilue was a little confused.
From Zhong Lingfan's perspective, Xu Zhi is mysterious and powerful. If the purpose of her trip is not clear, it will only make Zhong Lingfan feel uneasy.
"Yes, it's that simple." Zhong Lingfan nodded, her eyes fixed on Xu Zhi. Her extraordinary ability allowed her to roughly feel whether the person in front of her was more inclined to be good or bad.
If she were to use the "camps" she understood from her supernatural powers to classify them, they could be roughly divided into "evil", "good" or "neutral". It was very general, but enough for her to eliminate some dangerous people.
At present, Xu Zhi gave her the feeling of being "neutral".
If her extraordinary level could be improved, she would be able to perceive the camp more finely, and perhaps she would be able to understand Xu Zhi's character more clearly.
Now, she has built this garden with this extraordinary ability and her own means, with the purpose of protecting some people from surviving in this city. To do this, she needs to eliminate unstable factors.
“My purpose is simple.”
The girl sitting on the chair touched Hai Dongqing's back with one hand, and then said in a relaxed tone: "First, I was curious about you, and secondly, I wanted to know the information. Now my curiosity has been satisfied."
This shouldn't be a lie, right?
"Secondly, I hope you can move to a safer place to live."
In fact, she just wants this group of people to go to the old residential area and be exploited by her.
But that's definitely not the case.
"A safer place?" Zhong Lingfan's tone showed doubt for the first time.
"Yes." Xu Zhi nodded seriously. "It's where I live now. There are other people here too. I've been worrying about how to get more people in."
This doesn't sound particularly scheming.
Zhong Lingfan even wondered if Xu Zhi was talking nonsense on purpose?
Or maybe this kid really didn't realize what he was saying?
She smiled helplessly and asked, "How can I ensure that the place you said was safe is really safe?"
"I have nearly forty people here. How can I ensure their safety during the migration to your place?"
"If there are other people living there, how can we ensure that there are no conflicts between them and my group and that they can get along well?"
As she said this, she sighed.
"I can't make such an irresponsible decision just because of your words."
"I know this." Xu Zhi's words suddenly didn't sound as unreliable as before.
"I mean, I'm working with you. I know you can tell if the people around you are safe, but can you guarantee that people's hearts won't change?"
"You don't look very capable of fighting. How can you guarantee that if people's hearts change in the future, you won't be powerless? After all, this is an era where strength is paramount."
These words really touched the heart of Zhong Lingfan. She was able to maintain an absolutely stable position now because most of the extraordinary people in the garden were not very powerful yet, and she also had people she trusted to assist her. But who knew whether they would still be willing to be inferior to others when they became powerful in the future?
"And me." Xu Zhi smiled and pointed at himself.
"I'm absolutely powerful, and I have no interest in management. I just need someone capable to manage. You can use me as a deterrent. You have management skills and the extraordinary ability to see through people's hearts, and I have absolute military strength. Our cooperation is perfect."
"Tomorrow, my real body will come here in person. You can have your men try their best to stop me, but I guarantee that no one can stop me."
"This room is better. When I walk into this room again unharmed, you must agree to my request and move your people to where I live. How about that?"
"I will ensure the safety of the migration process."
After Xu Zhi finished speaking, Zhong Lingfan pondered for a moment, then asked, "Do I have the right to refuse?"
"Yes." Xu Zhi nodded seriously: "But even if you refuse, I will come tomorrow."
"At worst, I can just kill anyone who doesn't want to go with me."
The girl suddenly laughed after saying this: "It's a bit scary, but I'm just kidding. I wouldn't kill anyone for no reason."
"Anyway, you can't refuse me. Is that a deal?"
Zhong Lingfan helplessly put his hand on his forehead and said, "Wait a moment!"
Why did I tell you that?!
