Chapter 381 She's nothing but a clown.
Zhang Yan frantically dodged, sustaining injuries to his arms and neck.
He shouted desperately, "I told you I'm the person you're looking for! You'll regret killing me!"
Lear sneered, his offensive unabated: "Do you think I'd believe your nonsense?"
Instead, Lin Qian stepped forward to stop her: "Why don't you listen to what he has to say first? Aren't you being too hasty? Besides, don't you have a way of identifying incomplete people?"
Lear finally stopped attacking, but she didn't believe Zhang Yan's words and just wanted Lin Qian to expose his lies.
So that she won't blame me for indiscriminate killing.
If she wants to cooperate with Lin Qian in the future, there can be no barriers between them, otherwise Lin Qian will not do her best to help her.
Wouldn't letting Lin Qian see Zhang Yan's true colors herself be more effective than her killing him directly?
Her method for identifying incomplete individuals is quite simple: based on their individual characteristics. This method is effective, but it is also prone to errors.
However, it's sufficient for filtering.
Lear sheathed his dagger. "Since you want to hear his excuses, then let him live a little longer."
Zhang Yan was furious, as if his life was in Lear's hands and she could take it whenever she wanted.
She tried her best but couldn't hurt herself—he meant, she didn't hurt any vital organs, and that was without her retaliating.
What makes her think she has control over his life and death?
Zhang Yan took a deep breath and exhaled the frustration in his chest.
He took out several items from his system inventory; these were the items he received when he used his area-switching ability.
Seed collectors, detectors, and all sorts of strange potions were thrown at Lear: "Take these and see if they're any valuable items."
Lear was caught off guard and hit by various props. He was about to pull out his dagger to kill someone when he suddenly saw the seed collector.
She paused, as if someone had grabbed her by the neck and she was having difficulty breathing.
"How did you obtain this seed collector?"
She tried her best to calm herself down.
Zhang Yan glanced at it indifferently and said nonchalantly, "Of course, it's about using your abilities."
Lear looked at him intently: "Your ability? What is it?"
Zhang Yan didn't hide anything, saying, "I can switch districts at will."
To gain Lear's trust, he cannot hide anything from her.
He suspected that Lear definitely knew about the five of them, although he didn't know how much she knew, but he had no reason to hide his abilities.
Lear's eyes widened suddenly, a strange light flashing within them: "It's you!"
Zhang Yan scoffed, "I told you I'm the person you're looking for, do you believe me now?"
Things had taken an unexpected turn, leaving Lin Qian somewhat stunned: "We found it so quickly?"
They didn't even approach her; Zhang Yan came to them on his own.
But something felt off. Could there really be such a coincidence in the world?
Zhang Yan wasn't stupid; he knew that his appearance at such a coincidental time was too much of a coincidence.
He picked up the roses he had dropped while fleeing for his life, and lowered his head sadly: "I thought I had found my soulmate, but I never expected her to be such a ruthless character who would kill someone at the drop of a hat... My heart is shattered into pieces, and I will never love again."
Now that the goal has been achieved, there's no need to continue being a sycophant.
Lear ignored his words and just stared at him intently.
Zhang Yan felt uncomfortable under her gaze, and feigned curiosity, asking, "By the way, why did you look for me?"
Lin Qian: "Didn't you hear what we said earlier?"
Zhang Yan's expression remained unchanged: "Oh, when I arrived I overheard Lear mentioning the characteristics of the three people he was looking for, and I thought to myself, isn't that me? What else did you guys talk about earlier?"
“We are all incomplete beings,” Lin Qian suddenly recalled the dream, “You receive precious items every time you use your abilities?”
The handsome man's murmur from my dream suddenly came to mind.
Zhang Yan nodded: "Yes."
Lin Qian stared at him, somewhat lost in thought.
Why did this ability appear in Zhang Yan?
Isn't this the fictional character created by that handsome guy?
Is it another coincidence?
Five little mud men...
Lear also said that she was looking for five people, five incomplete people.
Lin Qian's pupils suddenly contracted.
Could it be...?
Are she and the other four people all transformed from clay figures?
How... how is this possible?
Her body was trembling slightly.
But no one noticed her unusual behavior.
Lear was basking in the joy of finding yet another "incomplete person," while Zhang Yan was racking his brains trying to figure out how to extract information from Lear.
Zhang Yan casually remarked, "By the way, are the three of us the only incomplete people?"
He completely scoffed at Lear's concept of "incomplete man".
What's incomplete about him? He has everything that should be there, even muscles that others don't have. What's incomplete about him?
He felt that this was a story Lear used to fool Lin Qian, in order to deceive her into helping her find other people.
You, Lear, how wicked you are!
After confirming that Zhang Yan was the person she was looking for, Li Er's attitude towards him underwent a complete 180-degree change. She no longer glared at him but answered all his questions: "No, there are two more people, but I have already found those two. Now, the people we are looking for are only the remaining two."
Although her attitude improved, she still did not apologize for trying to kill Zhang Yan earlier.
In her eyes, whether it was Lin Qian or Zhang Yan, they were just pawns, pawns for her to awaken the God Lord.
Their fates were already sealed, and there was no possibility of changing them.
Zhang Yan nodded: "So there were five people." He feigned curiosity, "Then who were the two people you found besides Lin Qian?"
He initially thought it was Mengmeng, but from Lear's words, it could be deduced that the person was not Mengmeng at all.
Lear's gaze deepened: "You don't need to know that."
Zhang Yan bluntly asked, "Could it be Mengmeng?"
Lear countered, "Why do you think it's her?"
Zhang Yan said, half-jokingly, "You know, Mengmeng and I are quite close. She often brags to me about how good her relationship with you is, and she even invited you to the last banquet. I didn't think you would get so close to a player for no reason, so I guessed it was her."
Lear chuckled dismissively: "Her? She's nothing but a clown."
Once, Mengmeng's seed collector did indeed lead her to believe that she was the person she was looking for.
However, besides the seed collector, Mengmeng didn't have any other valuable items, and...
Mengmeng has always been tight-lipped about the origin of the seed collector.
She began to suspect Mengmeng.
After making many inquiries and observations, and also after she awakened some special abilities, she finally realized that Mengmeng was not the person she was looking for.
Fortunately, she didn't reveal too much to Mengmeng.
To ensure everything went smoothly, she had considered getting rid of Mengmeng, but due to system limitations, she couldn't do it herself.
This matter was thus delayed indefinitely.
However, now, perhaps it's time to consider eliminating Mengmeng as a potential threat.
After all, Mengmeng did know some of her plans, even if it was just a little, it was still her death warrant.
