Chapter 118
Although the author probably won't let Mo Xiaotian be taken away by him, it would definitely cost a lot to unlock his ability. There is no other way, this is the only thing he can do now.
Almost in the next second when he moved the little finger to the far right, Mo Xiaotian suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, and his whole body became listless, as if he would die in the next second.
Grandpa's face was as black as the bottom of a pot. He hugged his grandson with a look of heartache and warned him again: "Do you think you can kill Xiaotian? He has a life-saving prop we made specifically for him. Even if something really happens, he can be resurrected immediately. If you put away your supernatural power now, we still have a chance to negotiate, but if you continue, I will tear you into pieces!"
After hearing this, Su Bei almost laughed. What kind of rubbish is this life-saving tool? Why does everyone have one?
Si Zhaohua has one, Mo Xiaotian has one, and Feng Lan must have one too. Not to mention others, even he has one in his hand! It's just that the "surrogate doll" in his hand is carried with him. Although it gives him another life, he can't run away. Unless he can make the other party believe that he is really dead, otherwise he can't escape at all.
Seeing that Mo Xiaotian was still vomiting blood, becoming increasingly weak and unconscious, Grandpa naturally knew Su Bei's choice.
However, the grandfather who had clearly given Mo Xiaotian the protective gear began to hesitate. The gear he gave could not only save lives, but also had a protective effect and could reduce a lot of damage from the outside world.
But looking at Mo Xiaotian's expression, it was obvious that the props had no effect at all. It was as if he really had a stomachache out of thin air, rather than being affected by supernatural powers.
But that was obviously impossible. The enemy must have used supernatural powers on him.
In this situation, although Grandpa just said it tough, he was actually unsure in his heart. He didn't dare to gamble with Mo Xiaotian's life. If he failed, even if he killed the enemy a thousand times, he couldn't save Mo Xiaotian's life!
The two sides were in a stalemate, but the difference was that this time Su Bei's mood had improved significantly. It was obvious that Grandpa was hesitating, which meant that he was not confident that the life-saving prop could really save Mo Xiaotian. Or maybe he didn't want to waste a life-saving prop for himself.
No matter which possibility it is, it is good news for Su Bei. As long as the other party hesitates, there is a high probability that he will choose to let him go in the end. Although he is determined to die together, he does not really want to die. If there is a chance to save his life, it is better to be alive.
It seems that we have to push the enemy further. Su Bei doesn't want to delay the situation. What if the other side calls for reinforcements?
Thinking of this, he directly used a little mental power to attack Mo Xiaotian. He could feel the high-level mental power. He was already extremely weak, and this time he spat out a small mouthful of blood.
Grandpa immediately lost his guard and shouted: "Stop torturing him! I can let you go, but you must promise not to use this trick against Xiaotian again in the future!"
Although he couldn't swallow this breath, his grandson's life was more important. And as long as I guard against this method, I believe that I will never be able to hurt Mo Xiaotian again in the future, which can be regarded as a permanent solution.
He then took out a contract out of thin air, and the words on the contract appeared according to his wishes, which were exactly what he had just said.
Grandpa put the contract in the corner of the house, took Mo Xiaotian to the other side, and motioned Su Bei to go over and sign.
The contract he took out was a very advanced type. It did not need to be written with a pen. As long as one agreed to it in one's heart, it would be effective enough.
"Is there any problem with this contract?" Su Bei asked "Comic Consciousness".
In this regard, "Comic Consciousness" is still willing to help. In fact, he was also shocked just now. The situation is too dangerous. Once Su Bei is in trouble, he will not be able to find a second person who can save the world.
"No problem." After checking, "Comic Consciousness" answered affirmatively.
Su Bei then breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the contract and signed it.
After signing, the "space lock" became invalid under the effect of the contract. Su Bei immediately used the teleportation to leave and returned home. The next second after he teleported, the place where he was standing was suddenly hit by a red light, and a three-meter-wide pit appeared on the ground in an instant.
The moment he sat on the sofa, Su Bei breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat from his forehead from the table, and then sat there to calm down.
The voice of "Comic Consciousness" sounded: "This time it was really too risky. You must not take such risks next time."
Su Bei poured himself a glass of water, drank it, nodded and shook his head: "It is indeed too dangerous, I will be more careful next time."
It was impossible not to take risks. If he wanted to be safe and sound, he could only wait for the destruction of the world. However, he had to have more comprehensive preparations for future adventures. This time, Su Bei also learned a lesson. The invisibility talisman was not omnipotent. Even though the "comic consciousness" had strengthened it, there were still many ways to restrain it.
It has to be said that he was too careless this time, because there were no problems in the previous several times he used the invisibility talisman and no one discovered it, so Su Bei had a blind trust in it.
It was not until this time that he realized that even the invisibility talisman with the bonus of "comic consciousness" was not omnipotent. The props and skills in the supernatural world were all kinds of strange. He must not let his guard down for any reason and must consider everything over and over again.
After all, he was only 15 years old. After a while, Su Bei quickly regained his vitality. He felt that being cautious was not enough, because sometimes he really didn't notice other people's traps. It would be better to prepare more protective gear to save his life.
Thinking of this, he went to search the warehouse of the "Destiny" organization again. There were many life-saving props in it, and Su Bei stuffed the substitute doll in and replaced it with a prop that he really needed.
"Life-replacing Doll" is very similar to "Surrogate Doll", but the difference is that it does not need to be kept by the body. After dripping blood to recognize the owner, no matter where the doll is, it can replace the owner's life. The user who is fatally injured will directly replace the doll.
Of course, it is not completely without disadvantages. First of all, because the positions are swapped, the enemy will directly see that the person who should have been attacking has become a doll, and naturally know that the opponent is not dead. The trick of faking death cannot be achieved with this prop. Unlike the "surrogate doll", it can also create the illusion of death.
Secondly, after using this item, the user will enter a three-day period of weakness. This kind of weakness is not like Su Bei using the "Dream Bubble", which is just dizziness and fatigue. Instead, the user can't move at all and must be taken care of by someone.
If it is a "stand-in doll", there will be no disadvantages at all.
Both props have their own advantages and disadvantages, but there is no doubt that the "life-replacement doll" can help Su Bei more than the "surrogate doll". Even if you can't move at all for three days, your life will not be in danger. But if you revive on the spot, you may really be caught in a jar!
In fact, there are better things in the warehouse, but even as the leader of the organization, Su Bei cannot exchange them at will. But at least he still has the right to exchange a good item of similar value for an item of equal value.
After he regained his sense of security, he began to think about what had just happened.
First, let's think about the intelligence he got at the beginning. The intelligence he got was that although the headquarters exposed by the "Black Flash" organization was real, they exposed it on purpose. There was an ambush in the headquarters, which might cause heavy damage to the college.
Now that his eavesdropping has been discovered, the Black Flash organization is likely to change its plan. Then the problem comes. If he tries to tell the academy about this, once the Black Flash organization changes its plan, he will not only lose the trust of the academy, but also may cause greater damage to the academy because of his words.
If he didn't say anything, he wouldn't suffer any loss. But if the academy was really hit hard, this world where the forces of good and evil are already unbalanced would only become more difficult to balance.
Moreover, there is another important question. Even if he wants to tell the academy, under what name should he tell it?
It would definitely not work if he went to say it in person. Once Mo Xiaotian and the others knew that he was the one who eavesdropped today, Su Bei guaranteed that he would not survive a week.
It is not okay to use the name of the "Destiny" organization. Firstly, there is no reason, and secondly, he does not want the organization to quarrel with "Black Flash". It will do no good to the organization. Not only will it be detrimental to the unity of the organization and cause criticism, but it will also bring danger to them.
Although he stole so many props last time, the relationship between the two organizations was already tense. But that time, Zheng Yun was the first to provoke, and he had his reasons. Secondly, doing that thing also increased the inventory of "destiny" in disguise, so the members of the organization could only be happy.
After thinking about it, Su Bei came up with an idea. He couldn't tell the academy about this information as a leader, but he could sell this information as a seller!
As the leader, he has many privileges. He knows the identities of all the members of the organization, and he can also see the identities of those anonymous accounts in the background.
Wu Di, the principal of the "Infinite Ability Academy", is one of the members of his organization. Su Bei directly found his account, clicked on his personal homepage, and checked the commissions he had issued.
As expected, I found information about the "Black Flash" organization in it.
Like Su Bei, he is also using the "Destiny" organization to investigate the information of the "Black Flash" organization, and it is a long-term commission. Whenever you come to him with useful content, you will get rewarded.
Su Bei immediately accepted the commission using an anonymous account.
While the other party hadn't reacted yet, Su Bei continued to ponder what had happened before. It was certain that Mo Xiaotian definitely had the same life-saving item as Si Zhaohua. Judging from how much the grandfather valued him today, he would not be stingy in giving him such a item.
But if that was the case, Su Bei didn't understand why Grandpa would compromise with him.
A relatively reasonable explanation is that the life-saving item is very valuable, and in order to save this item, he let Su Bei go. He Su Bei does not think that the "Black Flash" organization will lack such a item. Compared with this item, it is definitely more valuable to kill him, the unknown enemy.
Unless he was a person with a bad mind or a really poor person, he would not let him go just to save props. And obviously the boss of the "Black Flash" organization could not be one of these two situations.
The other party chose to let him go, and even asked him to sign the contract afterwards, which could only be because he was really worried that something would happen to Mo Xiaotian. In other words, the life-saving props he gave Mo Xiaotian could not block his own supernatural power!
This thought made Su Bei raise his eyebrows. You know, he didn't really pose a threat to Mo Xiaotian's life at that time, which means that the props that his grandfather gave him must be able to reduce the damage.
My own ability is immune to this item.
Many people with special powers don't know what little peculiarities their powers have. If they want to understand their own special powers, apart from going through various actual combat, it's just little accidents like this.
It was not until this time that Su Bei realized that the supernatural powers he had obtained might have abilities that he was completely unaware of, such as immunity to some items.
However, just like the compass, this ability also requires a lot of verification before it can be confirmed. Su Bei sighed, feeling that there is still a long way to go.
The next morning, Wu Enemy came for the confrontation.
"What kind of intelligence is it?" Wu Di asked in the notebook. The handwriting on it was all in small regular script, so that no one could find the person by the handwriting.
Su Bei answered directly: "An intelligence report about their recent actions."
The general commission they organize is this process. The seller of the selling information first accepts the commission, then reveals a little information, and then the buyer decides whether to continue. During this period, the price or other transaction details can be renegotiated.
If you decide to proceed, you cannot change it. Once the seller has given you the full information, the transaction will be completed automatically.
Of course, after the transaction is completed, the buyer can rate the seller, and sellers with too low scores will be investigated. Once it is discovered that the other party is really selling false intelligence, or using useless intelligence to cheat points, the lightest punishment is to be kicked out of the organization, and the more serious punishment is that the life will be in danger.
Seeing the notebook showing that the other party had recent intelligence on the "Black Flash" organization, Wu Di immediately thought of their actions. In fact, he also felt that the recent actions were a little smooth, and he found the headquarters of the "Black Flash" organization so quickly. It was a little unreal no matter how he thought about it.
However, after many investigations, they could not find anything wrong with the headquarters, and all clues showed that it was the real headquarters of the "Black Flash" organization. Therefore, even if they felt there was a problem, the academy insisted on going there to find out.
Now that he finally had a clue, Wu Di's eyes flashed with surprise, but then he became a little suspicious. It was said that because of the "fate" mechanism, most sellers of information would not sell false information. Otherwise, being kicked out of the organization for such a small amount of points would be a complete loss.
Moreover, everyone is anonymous and does not know each other's identities, so naturally there is no grudge. No one would rather destroy themselves than sell false intelligence to retaliate against the enemy.
But now they are fighting with "Black Flash", and it is a bit suspicious for someone to answer his question at this time. What if the other party is a member of the "Black Flash" organization, and it is not impossible that they will use false intelligence to confuse them even at the risk of being kicked out of "Fate".
After all, as a pure intelligence organization, Fate is destined to have almost no loyal members. As long as someone can give up the huge benefits in it, it can release false intelligence.
Although he was already on guard, he still agreed to the deal. He was determined to get the information, and whether it was true or not could be studied after getting the information.
Now Su Bei was acting as a pure seller, so it was impossible for him to give him this news easily. The two bargained for a while, and finally Su Bei got a satisfactory reward.
After he was satisfied with the price, Su Bei told the other party the information. He did not hide the fact that he was caught eavesdropping, and told the other party the general process.
Of course, it was not clear how he escaped. However, he pretended to be someone who had been wronged by someone who had accidentally overheard information and was determined to take revenge on him.
It should be said that after listening to the series of things he said, Wu Di felt more assured about the authenticity of the intelligence. It was not that he completely believed Su Bei's words, but mainly because Wu Di felt that "Black Flash" would not deliberately make up such a lie to deceive him.
Secondly, the intelligence provided by Su Bei was too uncertain. Not only was the enemy's situation uncertain, but even how he would react to this intelligence was uncertain.
If it was a lie made up just to deceive him, then it would have little effect.
Of course, he was willing to believe the other party. Another reason was because Wu Di saw that Su Bei was deliberately cheating him for profit. It was a huge ask to exchange such a useless piece of information for so many points. This guy was really a rip-off. If he had known that this product was a semi-finished product, he would have cut the price in half.
After solving a big problem and throwing it away, Su Bei had a short break. It was short because he had something else to do soon.
The winter vacation lasted only one month. He used the first week to study his superpowers, and the next week was used to complete his holiday homework.
The location was chosen by Lan Subing, a strange space where the weather is said to change at will. Undoubtedly, the weather change is the ability of the high-level nightmare beast.
This alien space is relatively safe, and the high-level nightmare beast only has auxiliary abilities. Although changing the weather is a very powerful ability, it is much safer than those nightmare beasts with offensive power.
The map of this alien space is also quite magical. It is a large flat with countless rooms. Each room has its own weather and decoration, and of course there may be nightmare beasts hidden in it.
This alien space is quite interesting. If Su Bei had gone there alone, he would have been very happy. Unfortunately, he went there with the protagonists, and the interesting configuration became a death warrant.
Su Bei sighed and began to prepare. He first opened the group chat and found some information about this alien space that Lan Subing had searched on the official website of the country-established alien community.
As a rare alien space controlled by the country that possesses high-level nightmare beasts, the Weather Alien Space is still very famous, and there is a lot of content in the data.
The weather conditions controlled by this weather nightmare beast are currently known to include sunny days, rainy days, snowy days, hail days, and strong winds.
However, what Su Bei had never expected was that in these weather conditions, the most dangerous days were not rainy or hail days, but sunny days! The one that sounded the safest was actually the most dangerous.
But after watching the explanation again, he suddenly understood the reason. If you are outdoors on a sunny day, it is indeed good weather. But what if you are indoors?
He means—the sun is indoors.
When I saw the little sun so close in the photo, even Su Bei was silent. This thing is a bit scary. Is this considered creating a sun out of thin air?
He couldn't even imagine opening a door and seeing the sun in front of him. What would that feel like? If it was a real sun, the heat from its face would melt him, not to mention its brightness.
Even if the sun is just a fake sun, it should not be underestimated.
The remaining types of weather also have their own dangers. In fact, it is difficult to be safe in a small room in any weather.
They agreed to go on Monday, and early in the morning Su Bei arrived at the orphanage where Jiang Tianming and Wu Mingbai lived. They are still minors and are temporarily living in the orphanage.
This is the first time that Su Bei has matched the orphanage scene in the comics to reality. Unlike the gray and gloomy appearance in the comics, the orphanage in reality is actually quite sunny. With white walls and red tiles, the appearance is completely acceptable.
Jiang Tianming and the other man, who learned from the text message that he had arrived, came out to greet him. From a distance, they saw two young men, one in black and one in orange, walking quickly towards him.
Su Bei raised his eyebrows, his eyes flashing with interest. When the two men came up to him, he jokingly said in a low voice: "Why are you coming to see me with a bunch of little tails?"
With his eyesight, he could see from a distance that several children of different ages were following Jiang Tianming and his partner. He didn't believe that they hadn't noticed.
As expected, when they heard him say this, the two of them were not surprised at all. Wu Mingbai pretended to be surprised and said, "What tail?"
Su Bei didn't say anything, just looked at him with a half-smile. Jiang Tianming shook his head in amusement: "If they want to follow, let them follow. Anyway, they will be chased away even if they get to the place."
Generally, ordinary people are prohibited from entering the vicinity of alien space to prevent nightmare beasts from escaping and injuring ordinary people, and also to prevent disputes between ordinary people and people with special abilities.
"Is Lan Subing not here yet?" Seeing that the two of them didn't mind being followed, Su Bei was too lazy to care and asked directly.
Jiang Tianming shrugged helplessly: "She's stuck in traffic, it will probably take a while for her to arrive."
Lan Subing's home was not far from the orphanage, so he should have arrived earlier. However, a traffic jam made him the last one to arrive.
After thinking for a while, he continued: "How about we take you to visit the orphanage?"
Su Bei nodded indifferently, and the three of them walked towards the orphanage together. But they actually walked back, and the group of people following them finally couldn't sit still anymore.
Several people came over together. The leader was about the same age as Jiang Tianming and his dark red hair was very eye-catching. "Jiang Tianming, you are so mean. You didn't even introduce our classmate to us when he came."
The people who followed him immediately echoed him: "That's right! That's not fair!"
Wu Mingbai spoke without hesitation, with an innocent look on his face: "Why do you want to introduce him? Isn't he our classmate?"
The dark red-haired boy was choked for a moment, and quickly found a way to retort: "But we are friends. Isn't it normal to introduce two friends you don't know to each other?"
It was obvious that Wu understood that there was no intention to give him face, and he showed a surprised look: "Hey, we are actually friends!"
