Chapter 63 Mental Power Harvesting 4
Chapter Sixty-Three
The three were shocked, but the young man remained calm. Lin Xia asked, "Won't we be discovered if we use our abilities here?"
The four of them helped each other to their feet. Hearing the question, a girl with a high ponytail looked at her warily: "You don't know?"
Lin Xia stared at them, her feet itching to move. Another short-haired girl quickly pulled her high ponytail and said in a gentle voice, "We've placed a jammer here, so we won't be discovered."
What are you doing here?
The short-haired girl pursed her lips: "We just want to leave this city. It's too unfriendly to people with superpowers here. But don't worry, we don't want to kill you. This can't be blocked."
Lin Xia knew that she was trying to tell her that if she killed them, she would be discovered immediately. What they said was probably true, and their superpowers hadn't been aimed at vital points. But if she were an ordinary person, she would definitely be injured.
Hearing their words, Lin Xia's heart stirred, and a voice told her that leaving this place might be a good idea.
"How are you going to leave? Where are you going?"
The four were silent for a moment, then the girl with the high ponytail stared at her: "Are you going to report us?"
Lin Xia shook her head: "I want to go with you."
The four of them seemed to be able to communicate. Lin Xia watched them quietly. After they finished discussing, the short-haired girl said, "We're going to the City of Superpowered Individuals. We'll leave at 9 a.m. tomorrow."
After they proactively added Lin Xia's communication terminal, the four of them slowly retreated to the room next to Lin Xia.
Back in her room, Lin Xia reflected on the events of the past few days. She had been escaping nightmares every night and catching up on sleep during the day. The higher her mental strength, the more likely she was to survive the next 10 days.
Open the properties panel and look at your properties:
[Spirit: 270 (+10)]
Constitution: 270 (+10)
Strength: 110
Speed: 110
Lin Xia felt that her mental strength was still insufficient, but looking at her power and speed, she felt that something was wrong. She silently lowered her head and fell asleep again.
Just as she regained consciousness, Lin Xia found herself in a bumpy car. Her whole body was tense, and she realized that her hands and feet were bound by two ring-like objects. They felt loose, but she couldn't break free.
"I advise you not to move around. This is the wilderness, there's no signal, and even if you die, no one will find out."
"You can't break free from this shackle. Don't look at me, I can't open it either. Only a person with mental strength can open it, and people with mental strength can only be found in the City of Superpowers."
Lin Xia tried it out. This thing locked her power, and presumably it also locked her speed. She didn't dare to try superpowers, but it could probably lock superpowers as well.
Opening her eyes, Lin Xia saw the short-haired girl sitting next to her talking. Just as she was about to speak, her eyes were fixed on the three large characters that appeared on the handcuff ring: "Backupable".
Lin Xia's heart skipped a beat; she felt something was off. She chose yes.
Backup successful: One backup copy completed, survival points required: 500
[Shackles: Can bind hands and feet; only usable by those with strong mental abilities. Duration: 1 year.]
Lin Xia pursed her lips and silently recited "backup" in her mind. The backup area appeared in front of her, and she quietly looked through it from top to bottom. When she saw "notebook", a notebook suddenly appeared in front of her.
Seeing that none of the people in the car seemed to be acting strangely, Lin Xia knew that they couldn't see the notebook.
"Without a signal, will using my abilities go undetected?" Lin Xia asked in a hoarse voice.
“Yes, so you’d better behave yourself,” the woman with the high ponytail threatened from the other side.
Lin Xia didn't care. Since they hadn't killed her, they certainly wouldn't turn on her now.
"Why are you allowed to go out at night?"
The short-haired girl and the girl with the high ponytail looked at her in surprise: "You really don't know?"
The short-haired girl looked at Lin Xia curiously: "That drowsiness can be blocked; it was developed by the City of Superpowered Individuals."
"Don't talk to her that much." The woman with the high ponytail frowned.
Lin Xia focused her attention on the notebook in front of her, and for the first time, her mental energy appeared outside her body as she opened the notebook.
Buying it but not drinking it is a waste.
Where did they take this from? Where did they pour the water? —Strange.
Her heart started pounding. When she saw herself put the nutrient solution she bought on the table, take it out from an unknown place and drink it, the space appeared in front of her. Lin Xia looked at the 29 bottles of nutrient solution and half a bottle of water inside and frowned tightly.
It stretches its teeth and claws while sleeping. —Terrifying.
Oh, he drank it again, without even throwing the water away. —Fickle.
Wake up, eat and drink, then go back to sleep. — A decadent life.
He's spacing out again. — He's sleeping too much.
She finally checked my profile today; I thought she had forgotten about me.
......
Each description was followed by a comment, which left Lin Xia speechless. Her heart pounded, and her mind seemed to clear up considerably.
Remembering the voice that had been echoing in her mind these past few days, she shivered. Who was influencing her?
She also recalled that she had used her mental power once when she was on the verge of death on the first night... Her behavior these past few days could not be described as being manipulated, but she was definitely influenced by something.
Are the thoughts she's having now truly her own? Lin Xia felt a chill run down her spine. If she couldn't even believe it herself, what should she do?
Forcing yourself to calm down can influence a person's thoughts and ideas; this is mental strength!
She withdrew her mental energy and scanned every inch of her body with it, finding nothing unusual!
Wait a minute, if I've only been here a few days and I'm already being affected, what about the people in this world? Thirty years have passed, are their thoughts and ideas still my own? Is the information I've found accurate?
Are humans still the ones who control this world?
If everything is fake, then what kind of world am I in? Where are these people taking me? A chill ran down her spine. She used her spiritual power to probe outwards and discovered that they were driving on a road shielded by protective barriers, with many cars in front and behind them.
Outside the protective shield, everything was desolate, with nothing but yellow sand.
Backup successful: Backup of Medium Protection Shield *1, Requires 100,000 Survival Points
Looking at them, apart from the young man, the other three were all very young, looking to be only 17 or 18 years old, full of vigor. The young man driving the car remained expressionless.
Did they know what they were doing? Lin Xia lowered her eyes. Or were they ordered to take her to the city of superhumans? Regardless, something was definitely influencing their decision.
Going there is definitely not a good thing; she has to find a way to escape.
However, the energy points required to break through the intermediate-level protective shield are simply not something I can do on my own.
Seeing Lin Xia staring out the window, the short-haired girl said softly, "The radiation outside is getting stronger and stronger. Ordinary people can't last a month outside. This protective shield is said to use new technology and can't be broken by ordinary missiles."
Lin Xia frowned; she knew the short-haired girl was saying this specifically to her.
But how can I escape, and where can I escape to? Will I be able to resist the sleepiness that night? If I can't, there's no way I can escape.
We can only play it by ear.
