Chapter 97: Chapter 75 Mind Reading

The restroom of the underground train.

Wu Xiaode appeared once again.

"Ughhhhhhh——"

He endured the pain of being struck by the giant, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, feeling utterly exhausted.

Only 4 points of Soul Power left.

He couldn’t use it anymore.

Otherwise, what would he do if a battle arose and he had no Soul Power?

The Book of the Dead quietly opened, revealing rows of ice crystal small print:

"Congratulations."

"You have obtained the Giant’s unique secret technique:

"Mind Reading Technique."

"Sustained Circle Magic."

"Each use consumes 0.5 points of Soul Power, creating a 1-meter diameter halo under your feet, effective for five minutes."

"Within those five minutes, the thoughts of any being enveloped by this halo can’t escape your mind reading power."

Damn it!

Wu Xiaode couldn’t help but want to swear aloud.

Why not give himself the "All-encompassing" that could destroy anything in a second?

Or the Deep Red Beam too!

At the very least, that ability to attack from a distance would have been a good choice.

Why mind reading?

A diameter of only 1 meter—

This ability has no power at all!

Wu Xiaode sighed.

It seemed to know what he was thinking, for the Book of the Dead quickly revealed more rows of ice crystal small print:

"This is a Divine Skill."

"Rated as: a rare, indiscriminate mind-reading technique of the realms."

"Explanation: All beings with thoughts can be read, impossible to resist."

"The higher your Soul Power limit, the larger the diameter of the mind reading halo, covering a wider area."

"The One-eyed Giant’s mind reading halo can cover the entire Death Demon Cave."

"Keep it up!"

He shook his head.

He felt like having another chat with the One-eyed Giant, but his Soul Power was low.

Battles were upcoming.

For safety, now there was only one option left.

Cleaning up monsters.

After killing enough monsters and returning to the real world, he would prepare a sufficient feast in the mirrored world for the One-eyed Giant, hoping to gain more abilities of the Giant Clan.

Suddenly, Wu Xiaode opened his eyes, reviewed all the knowledge he had acquired in his memory, and then pushed open the restroom door to exit.

The Book of the Dead gently shook, then opened, revealing rows of ice crystal small print:

"Special Commission: The Secret Underground."

"Completed."

"You have discovered the cause of death of the underground scientists."

"The book has now informed the wandering souls in the cave of the relevant answers."

"You will soon receive your mission reward—"

"Congratulations!"

"You have received a message from the commissioner:

"—Thank you for disclosing the cause of death of the scientists to me, my long-cherished wish is fulfilled, and I am about to leave this world."

"Before parting, I have something to tell you:

"If you can get the blueprint of the underground tunnel, go to the end of the T5 channel, where the ’Preparation Room’ is indicated, there is a ready-to-activate Mimic Invisibility Mecha, and plenty of supplies.

"Let it serve you, you need to say the secret activation saying:

"’Escapee spotted, activate type 92026 immediately, build the combat mode based on me!’"

"Good luck."

Wu Xiaode felt bewildered.

Sister Lan was developing a type 92025 robot.

—And yet, an Otherworld just sprang out a type 92026 Mobile Battle Armor.

Is this a coincidence?

Or is there some inevitable connection here?

No,

Matters involving Sister Lan must be checked out.

Wu Xiaode quietly made a decision.

The blueprint of the underground tunnel had already been obtained by the team.

Now all he needed to do was head to that T5 channel to activate the Mobile Battle Armor and find out what was going on!

Wu Xiaode opened the restroom door and walked back to the front carriages, pondering his next strategy.

He called up the team leader and they both stepped into the cockpit.

"Drive along this route,"

Wu Xiaode said, pointing to the underground tunnel map in the cockpit.

The T5 channel was exactly where his finger pointed.

"The T5 channel? Why?" the team leader asked.

"Do you all remember," Wu Xiaode started, "last night, I told you I came from an underground shelter."

"Yes," the team leader and others nodded together.

"I didn’t see it before, but now I can confirm that the structure of that underground shelter is similar to this place," Wu Xiaode said.

"We already have the blueprint for the underground tunnel," the gunman shrugged.

"I’m talking about its function—in that T5 passage, things are generally placed, and I suppose these identically structured tunnels also have the same functions."

"So what’s there?" the group leader asked.

"It is the only narrow passage, very far from the main road, specifically used for underground ventilation and storing supplies."

Narrow, meaning no large monsters.

Being distant from the main road and ventilated meant it was very likely to find a way to leave this place from somewhere else.

If all underground shelters were designed this way, that was good news.

Everyone’s spirits were lifted.

Having just figured out the Lizard Man’s actions, they now quite believed his judgment.

"Change course, let’s go!" the group leader commanded.

The gunman immediately operated the train, changing tracks at the next junction, heading in the direction Wu Xiaode had indicated.

— In the Lizard Man’s memory, that place was teeming with monsters.

But some powerful ones had been singled out and killed.

The remaining weaker monsters, which the Lizard Man neglected to kill because it was busy dealing with the "escapees," were left there.

This was everyone’s chance to leave the Otherworld!

Wu Xiaode leaned back in his seat, quietly contemplating the things he had to do in a moment.

He took out a snack and started eating it.

— Soul Power was overly depleted, eating and resting were ways to replenish Soul Power.

At that moment, the group leader came over and asked softly,

"That monster just now—do you think it has companions?"

"It probably does," Wu Xiaode said.

"From now on, we need to stay alert, after all, Sun was only out of our sight when he was ambushed," the group leader said.

Wu Xiaode was momentarily stunned.

Right!

According to the Lizard Man’s memory, they had a unique method that could instantly put someone in a state of immobility, having power over life and death.

— They seemed to be uniquely designed to counter humans.

"Little Wu, you’re a close-combat specialist, if there’s a sudden firefight, we will rely on you," the group leader added.

"You’re right, we all need to be cautious," Wu Xiaode earnestly said.

His gaze swept over everyone.

He hadn’t been here just earlier.

Could it be...

Something happened?

At this thought, Wu Xiaode couldn’t contain himself any longer.

He thought for a few moments and simply activated the Mind Reading Technique from the One-eyed Giant.

An imperceptible power flowed from his body, quietly hovering within a 1-meter diameter around him.

This distance was quite short.

So there was a need to do some additional things to help it work.

As Wu Xiaode munched on a mung bean cake, he moved over to Xiao Baihong and whispered,

"Want a piece? I still have one left."

"No thanks," Xiao Baihong laughed.

Suddenly, Wu Xiaode heard a voice coming from Xiao:

"This kid not only likes to drink fatty happiness water but also likes cilantro, totally lacking in style. I won’t eat with him again."

Wu Xiaode looked at Xiao Baihong in surprise.

He saw him with his mouth shut, nonchalantly watching the deep rocky walls speeding past outside the train.

— So this is his true thoughts.

You’re secretly criticizing me while pretending to look at the scenery!

Utterly hypocritical!

I don’t want to eat with you either!

Wu Xiaode composed himself, remembered his mission, and walked over to Ying, whispering, "Pull yourself together, Ying."

Ying nodded without saying a word.

Yet a voice came from him,

"If only I could find my brother’s body... At least I could take him back and bury him next to our parents."

First, no one knew about his ability to read minds.

Secondly, their natural thoughts matched their own experiences.

So it was safe to assume they were genuine.

— Which means Xiao Baihong and Ying were fine.

Wu Xiaode turned around, strode out of the carriage, and headed to the cockpit.

The gunman was there, operating the train.

As Wu Xiaode entered, he immediately turned around to look at him.

"What’s up?"

"Yes, I don’t have any long-range attack capabilities, could you give me a handgun? I need it for self-defense," Wu Xiaode requested.

"Haha, that’s simple."

The gunman casually pulled out a handgun and placed it on the table.

Wu Xiaode stepped forward, picked up the gun, and curiously asked, "Is this effective?"

"It’s enough for you," the gunman said.

Within a meter!

Wu Xiaode subtly leaned in, whispering, "I’m really sorry to say, but I can’t use guns, I just want to mess around with one, so don’t give me anything too good."

The gunman laughed silently, "No worries, just have fun with it."

A voice rose from him,

"Later, I need to find a way to get this kid out of the way, otherwise if he charges in when I’m killing Zhao Zhibing, it might be a bit troublesome."
