Chapter 131

However, before the ten minutes were up, there was a sudden bustle outside the library. Su Bei walked to the palm-sized window and looked out, only to see the group of guests who had drunk red wine gathered together, frantically confronting Jiang Tianming and his group across from them.

Standing at the front was a calm, middle-aged man with white hair. He looked 50% like Feng Ling, but he looked like a bad guy. He should be Feng Lan's cousin.

My uncle had a smug smile on his face and said loudly: "I admit that you are very powerful. You were able to disrupt our plan in such a short time. But so what? The most important person is still in our hands."

He was naturally referring to the guests. The guests who had been completely under their control were not angry at all when they heard this. Instead, their faces were filled with excitement, as if they did not understand what their cousin was saying at all and just supported him unconditionally.

One of them even tried to persuade them: "That's right, you should know that we also have a lot of props. You can't possibly beat us. You'd better surrender quickly. As long as you surrender, you can enjoy this wonderful world with us."

This advice obviously won the uncle's heart. He nodded with satisfaction and said, "If you don't want them to get into trouble together and the responsibility will ultimately fall on you, you'd better raise your hands in surrender now and hand over Feng Lan. Don't worry, no matter which of you it is, I, your uncle, will not be willing to hurt you."

When people hear the words "the ultimate responsibility lies with you", their hearts tighten. But if you think about it a little, you will know that this situation is completely possible.

If these big shots died because of their refusal to compromise, then even if the truth is finally revealed, the forces behind them will definitely blame them. It is understandable that they did not compromise, but the reality is that there is no such thing as reason everywhere.

Just like the parents of Sun Ming whom I met at the beginning of last semester, they knew that the murderer was the one who killed Sun Ming, but because they couldn't deal with the murderer, they stubbornly blamed them.

The situation is the same now. They can't control the "Black Flash" organization, and they can't control a group of students. No one can guarantee that those people will be reasonable.

Moreover, judging from what my cousin said just now, the truth may not be made public. God knows whether the "Black Flash" organization has the ability to tamper with the truth.

But if they surrender now, it will be different. First of all, the blame will definitely not be on them. Secondly, Su Bei has already gone to ask for help. With his reliability, although he has never been reliable in small matters, he has never failed in big matters. If nothing unexpected happens, the support will definitely come, and then we can just leave the matter to the teachers and them to solve it.

And to be honest, what the guest said before was also true. They must have a lot of self-defense tools on them, and they might not be able to defeat them.

For a moment, everyone was a little hesitant, not knowing how to make a choice.

Except Jiang Tianming.

He was obviously not moved at all. After seeing everyone's hesitation, he answered without hesitation: "Don't be delusional! You said that we won't be hurt. It should be just physical harm. Then we will become the same as the group of people behind you. What freedom will we have? And if they can really deal with us, why don't they take action now?"

The last sentence was like a wake-up call, Qi Huang and the others were stunned. Yes, if they could really use those props, they would have caught them long ago, why would they say so much nonsense?

These people may not all be powerful psychics, they may just be in this position because of their high status. However, because of their high status, they must have countless props on them, so it is generally easy to deal with a few psychics.

So what's going on? Si Zhaohua frowned: "You can't use props anymore."

The man who spoke earlier knew that he could not fool them, so he looked at his uncle. His uncle did not expect them to react so quickly, and his expression was a little ugly: "So what? As long as they are in my hands, you have to be cautious."

This was true, and everyone was in a dilemma. However, Su Bei, who was looking down at everyone from a high altitude, could clearly see that the situation was not developing as his cousin had imagined.

He thought he had successfully threatened Jiang Tianming and others, but he did not notice that in the corner where he could not see, there were ropes winding on the ground. The positions of those ropes were very strange. They were not at the feet of the crowd, but were very messy in some hidden places some distance away from them.

At the same time, flames gradually rose in the distance, seeming to surround them.

Wu Jin, who was standing next to them, also noticed these little movements. After observing them carefully for a while, he said in surprise: "Jiang Tianming and the others brought headphones!"

Su Bei also noticed that they were wearing headphones. After thinking for a while, he said with certainty, "Feng Lan gave them to them."

Judging from their behavior, it is obvious that there is someone controlling the situation behind the scenes. Now all the members of Class S except Feng Lan are here, so the person controlling the situation must be Feng Lan.

"Didn't he give you headphones?" Su Bei turned and asked Wu Jin.

Wu Jin shook his head, indicating no. At that time, time was tight and he did not have strong self-protection ability, so he was the first to leave. He did not even know when Feng Lan gave the headphones to others.

Hearing this, Su Bei looked thoughtful. He was thinking about the purpose of the placement of the ropes, and also thinking about whether this matter had anything to do with him.

Feng Lan didn't give Wu Jin the earphones, so he probably didn't intend to contact him. But not intending to contact him doesn't mean he really doesn't have a mission for him, especially when Feng Lan himself has the ability to predict the future and thinks Su Bei's ability is very similar to his.

The purpose of the flames was obvious, as they were intended to trap everyone here. Once the action started, they would not be able to escape the encirclement when they fled in panic.

etc……

Run away!

Suddenly, Su Bei's pupils shrank, and then he suddenly understood the purpose of the ropes, and also understood what he needed to do.

"So that's how it is!" After figuring it out, he couldn't help but sigh. Feng Lan's calculations were very ingenious. Even if he didn't understand his intentions clearly, the plan wouldn't be hindered. And if he understood it clearly, it would only make the process smoother.

Hearing his words, Wu Jin showed a surprised look: "Have you figured it out?"

Su Bei nodded and said slowly, "Don't worry, just wait a little longer, the time will be up soon."

Since he said so, Wu Jin naturally had no objection. He was not an impatient person, so he quietly waited here with Su Bei.

At ten minutes later, the teleportation array installed by Su Bei suddenly lit up, and a large group of people appeared directly in the library.

Not only the teachers and principals of the "Infinite Power Academy", but also some people that Su Bei had never seen before. If I guessed correctly, these people should be from the government and the families of the guests.

As soon as the group of people came over, they looked around. After seeing Su Bei, Wu Di strode over, first gave his son a look, and then looked at Su Bei kindly: "Su Bei, right? How's the situation?"

As he was talking, he also noticed the confrontation downstairs from the small window, and his brows immediately frowned: "So many people have been controlled."

Seeing Su Bei nod, the group of people behind him suddenly became anxious. You know, those who are controlled are all big shots. If they really all surrender to the "Black Flash" organization, it will be a big disaster.

"What should we do, Principal Wu?" One of them wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked anxiously, "Although we do have control-type psychics here, I'm afraid these people have items that can prevent this kind of psychic ability."

Wu Di looked at Su Bei and said, "Do you have any plans? If not, I will take action."

As soon as these words came out, Wu Jin quietly pulled the corner of Su Bei's clothes, indicating that if there was a way, it would be best not to let Wu Di take action. As a son, he certainly knew his father very well. If Wu Di took action, the scene would definitely be very violent. Whether the person could be rescued or not was another matter, anyway, his father would definitely be criticized afterwards.

"We have a plan." Su Bei looked like he was planning something. "Please go downstairs and head in the direction where they are. But you don't need to do anything, just show up."

Seeing that he was very confident, even though everyone did not trust Su Bei that much, they still did as he said. After all, it was just a matter of going down, and it would not take time or effort.

Although it might cause alarm, it is impossible for a 15 or 16-year-old child in Su Bei to not know such an obvious truth. Since he asked them to do this, there must be a reason.

After they left, Su Bei used his mental power to sense the movement at the door of the library. At the moment when they were about to arrive, he suddenly shouted loudly: "Our reinforcements are coming! Don't run away! Surrender quickly!"

Because he now represents the opposite camp to the guests, they will subconsciously do the opposite of what he says. In other words, if Su Bei says "don't run away", the group will subconsciously run away.

Unlike the guests who were already drunk and not sober, the cousin was still sober. He knew that they must not make a scene at this moment, and that they could only make the government afraid to act when they were together.

So he immediately shouted loudly to stop everyone: "Don't run! Let's run together--"

Before he could finish his words, the wind spirit who had been standing beside him, keeping a low profile, suddenly jumped up and knocked his father to the ground, and covered his mouth, preventing him from finishing his words.

The guests did not try to stop them and fled recklessly. Almost all of them were successfully tied up by the [Immortal Binding Rope] hidden on the path they had to take before they could take more than a few steps.

All the guests were subdued and my uncle had no choice but to surrender.

The uncle did not struggle the whole time. Only after they successfully tied up everyone, he angrily questioned Feng Ling: "Why did you betray me? We are father and daughter. I did all this for your own good! You also have the ability to predict the future, and you were the next head of the family. But Feng Lan became the head of the family as soon as he woke up. Why did he do that? Aren't you unwilling to accept it?"

He looked like a good father who was willing to sacrifice his life for his daughter. People around him couldn't help but feel sorry for him. He wanted to help his daughter get promoted, but who knew that it was his daughter who would stab him in the back.

Although it is correct in theory to sacrifice one's own relatives for the sake of justice, it is still difficult for people to accept emotionally. For a while, several people whispered to each other, which was particularly obvious in this quiet environment.

However, although Feng Ling's eyes were slightly red, her expression was calm, or rather wooden. She just said one sentence in a calm tone, and everyone, including her father, was speechless.

——"I saw you drinking red wine."

Red wine is just an ordinary drink in normal times, but it is obviously not the case here. In the short time before coming here, everyone who participated in this rescue operation was educated about the fact that red wine can be used as a drug.

It is an addictive psychoactive drug.

My uncle drank this stuff, which means he was probably controlled by the Black Flash organization. Then his subsequent actions were more likely to be working for the Black Flash organization in order to drink red wine, rather than speaking up for his daughter as he said.

"You...wasn't I dissatisfied with this before? I drank red wine after I cooperated with the "Black Flash" organization. In order to gain their trust, I had to drink it. How could you not understand my good intentions?" The cousin changed his previous sadness and anger, and defended himself with a red face.

However, everyone is not stupid. When they saw the uncle's evasive eyes and the guilty look of pretending to be angry, they naturally understood that he was lying.

Everyone immediately showed a look of contempt. If he frankly admitted that he was controlled by the "Black Flash" organization, then it would be nothing, but using his own daughter as a shield was really despicable.

Looking at her father's expression, Feng Ling finally let out the tears she had been holding back for a long time. She wiped the tears off her face and took a deep breath: "This red wine should have the effect of changing a person's personality. My father is not like this normally."

To be honest, Su Bei believed this. Judging from the character Feng Ling had shown before, she must have grown up in a relatively loving environment.

Sighing, Wu Di rubbed her head and said, "Don't worry, we are already developing an antidote. It will be developed sooner or later."

Hearing this, Feng Ling nodded vigorously. She took the tissue handed to her by a woman next to her, wiped her tears and said nothing.

At this time, Feng Lan, who had been absent from the beginning to the end, finally came over from a distance. He was still wearing the suit he wore in the morning, and because he had been behind the scenes, he was not as arrogant as the others.

He politely bowed deeply to everyone and said, "On behalf of the Feng family, I thank you all for your support. Please follow me to the lobby to rest for a while and... also witness the follow-up handling of this incident."

As he finished speaking, a group of gray-haired old men came out. Judging from their attire and temperament, even if they were not members of the Feng family, they were closely related to the Feng family.

However, it is worth mentioning that Su Bei actually saw Si Zhaohua's father. He said that the other party had never appeared before, and it turned out that he had foresight and hid himself.

Si Zhaohua was obviously very excited to finally see his father safe and sound. However, he did not go over immediately, but just exchanged glances with his father and then stayed in the team at ease.

As soon as he saw this group of people, his uncle's face suddenly changed. His expression showed a complex combination of extreme panic and "as expected", and then he glared at Feng Lan fiercely: "I said that they disappeared must be your fault! You took them away so early, I'm afraid you were on guard against me."

"Hmph!" The old man in the lead stood up and snorted coldly, "If I hadn't been on guard against you, you would have ruined our family tradition and colluded with the "Black Flash" organization. If the head of the family hadn't predicted it in advance through the [Prophecy] power, I'm afraid our entire family would have been killed by you!"

At this time, he did not forget to carefully emphasize the role of the [Prophecy] power in front of others. It was obvious that he was planning to use this opportunity to advertise, so that others would not stop trusting their family because of this incident.

Su Bei had no interest in judging his uncle. He gestured to Feng Lan across the crowd and then sneaked out.

Before they had taken a few steps, Wu Jin caught up with them. Su Bei looked at him in surprise: "Aren't you following the principal?"

Wu Jin shook his head: "My dad is dealing with important matters, why should I follow him? Are you going to the library? I haven't finished reading the book I read before, so I'll take this opportunity to read it again."

He guessed correctly, Su Bei was indeed going to the library. Although he had already understood everything he wanted to know, he did not live just for the mission. The books in the library were so rich that it was a great reward to see them.

For the sake of the world, he wanted to understand the birth of nightmare beasts. And for himself, he wanted to understand the secret of superpowers.

Compared with the former, the latter is relatively less secretive and is not hidden in a secret room. Wu Jin had found related books when he was searching before, and Su Bei was going to go there to find books under his guidance.

"Hey! Su Bei, Wu Jin!" Jiang Tianming's voice rang out from behind, followed by a burst of hurried footsteps.

The two turned around and saw all the S class members except Feng Lan and Si Zhaohua walking out of the hall and towards them.

Mo Xiaotian walked the fastest, and said with joy and a bit of pride: "I don't want to listen to their meeting inside, so I followed you as soon as I saw you come out!"

"Why didn't you ask us when you came out for a walk?" Wu Mingbai smiled gently, but his words were full of ulterior motives. "You don't want to leave us behind and go on your own, do you?"

Wu understood and immediately followed up on him: "How could he do it on purpose? He must have just forgotten about us."

With these two people stirring up trouble again, the others immediately stood there as if watching a good show, looking at Su Bei and the other person leisurely, waiting for their explanation.

Unlike Su Bei, who was thick-skinned, Wu Jin, who always liked to keep himself obscure, could not stand the attention of the crowd and whispered, "We just want to read a book... We're afraid you're not interested."

"We also like reading." Jiang Tianming stopped making things difficult for him and walked over with a smile. "Is the library lost? I wasn't interested when Feng Lan mentioned it before, but now it seems there must be something in it."

When he said the last sentence, he looked at Su Bei. It was obvious that he already knew, or guessed that Su Bei had been in the library all day.

"There is a golden house in the book." Su Bei nodded calmly, not bothered by his gaze at all. He also gave Wu Jin a look to signal him to learn from him and not be so shameless next time.

Arriving at the library, everyone began to quietly find books to read. In fact, some people wanted to come before, but because they knew about Feng Lan's family incident and had other tasks, they didn't have time to read.

Su Bei was looking for a book about super powers. This subject matter itself is very common. Whether in school or in any bookstore that sells books about people with super powers, there are definitely books of this type.

But often the more basic something is, the more likely it is to hide mysteries. After learning that nightmare beasts are creatures formed from the resentment of people after death, Su Bei was very curious about how supernatural powers were formed.

Finally, he found a book that was not available on the market and had a cover that looked a bit old. It was called "The Exploration of Superpowers". This book might not meet his requirements, but Su Bei was still very interested in it.

Because he would not spend too much time reading this time, Su Bei did not read the book as carefully as he did the last time. Instead, he flipped through the table of contents and quickly jumped to the content that interested him.

At first, superpowers were believed to be the product of mental power, and only people with mental power could awaken superpowers. But later, after research, it was discovered that ordinary people also have mental power, so everyone believed that only people with high mental power could awaken superpowers.

But just like all academic research, the truth always needs to be repeatedly wrong until it can be obtained in the end. The previous conclusion is also wrong, because one year, a superpower discovered that there are ordinary people with very high mental power, far higher than the current F-class superpowers, but they did not awaken their superpowers.

These are all things Su Bei knows, and as the history of the supernatural world, they are of course recorded in textbooks. But the following content is something Su Bei has never seen.

One person suggested that whether or not superpowers can be awakened, or how powerful they are, has nothing to do with mental strength. To be more precise, mental strength and superpowers are just like the relationship between a battery and a tool. The amount of power in the battery determines how long the tool can be used, but that's all.

However, because this idea was totally inconsistent with mainstream thought, it was suppressed at the time and was not recorded later. The author of this book is also a descendant of the person who proposed it, so he knows about this viewpoint.

The author agrees with his ancestors' idea and has conducted research on it, hoping to find out what supernatural powers are made of if not mental force.

Based on common sense - that people with special abilities generally experience varying degrees of decline as they age - she believes that this must contain the secret of the generation of special abilities.

Unfortunately, due to lack of support and insufficient funding, the author did not come to a final conclusion. She only proposed several possible forms of superpowers: vitality, emotion, and energy.

After reading it, Su Bei felt that he had benefited a lot. He also felt that the author's ancestor's idea was correct, and supernatural powers were definitely not formed by mental power. He also felt that the three reasons for the formation proposed by the author were indeed possible.

If he could really know the reason why super powers are formed, perhaps he could use this to enhance his own super powers.
