Trickster Hunter.

Chapter 126: A person with super powers?
"Really... there's no room for us to take advantage of." Sun Hang was a little helpless. "It looks like we really have to look for food in the trash cans."

……

Tianshu Tower, control room.

"Access records of the puppeteer's personal account have been detected." A voice said, "It's still in the ATM machine at the unmanned service point of Xiazhou Bank at No. 186 Zhenhai Road in Yixiu District, Ziweiyuan."

"Luckily I froze her account in advance." The team leader's voice sounded, "It seems they haven't gone far... Keep collecting information and tell the people below not to alert them yet and wait for the right time."

"Team leader, when is the right time?" the voice just now asked in confusion, "The target and the puppeteer are together all the time, we have no chance to rescue the hostages at all!"

"Are you stupid? For example, a puppeteer is a woman after all, and she has three urgent needs. When she goes to the bathroom, that guy can't stand next to her and watch her, right? He can't guarantee that the hostage is in his sight all the time, right? What we need to do now is to delay it until his attention begins to slacken, that's when we take action!"

"That's a good idea, team leader!" another voice immediately flattered.

……

……

Sun Hang was also very clear that as long as he inserted the puppeteer's bank card into the ATM machine, the Tianshu Tower would be able to locate his position immediately. Therefore, he did not stay there for long, but immediately took the puppeteer away from this place.

Sun Hang changed back to his original appearance - disguise had lost its meaning. No matter what appearance he turned into, as long as he brought the puppeteer with him, the people in Tianshu Tower would be able to immediately determine his identity.

Unless, he can change the puppeteer's appearance and physique.

In view of the consequence that Song Yarong became infected when he rescued her last time, Sun Hang did not want to try to use this ability to disguise the puppeteer... Although he did not know how the puppeteer controlled those strange corpses, there was no aura of any strange creature on this girl. If she was infected because of Sun Hang, the nature of the incident would be completely different.

The Tianshu Tower has a way to reconnect severed fingers, but it cannot turn an infected person back into a normal person.

"You are not infected, right?" Sun Hang glanced at the puppeteer and asked.

"No." The puppeteer replied. Her voice was as soft as a mosquito's hum. Fortunately, there was not much noise on this street, otherwise Sun Hang would not be able to hear what she was saying.

"Then how do you control the corpse? Is there any medium?" Sun Hang asked curiously.

Ye Jiu and Sun Hang said that the vast majority of those who are eligible for the strange equipment are not infected.

There are more than 700 pieces of strange equipment in existence with qualified people. Among these more than 700 qualified people, the infected people account for less than a quarter.

The reason is very simple. The infected people all have the memes of strange creatures in their bodies, and strange equipment is also a strange creature. Even if the memes between the two do not conflict, it is extremely rare for them to be compatible with each other... Therefore, the synchronization rate of the infected people is relatively low. Among the one-quarter of the qualified infected people, many have relied on their powerful strength to forcibly "tame" the strange equipment. For them, the strange equipment can only be regarded as a handy weapon.

For qualified people like Ye Jiu, it would be more accurate to say that the strange equipment is the living CPU of the strange equipment rather than their weapons.

But the puppeteer is different, her situation is very special.

Her strange equipment are the "strange skeletons" transformed from those infected people. These strange skeletons have no direct contact with her... So, as an ordinary person, how does she control these strange skeletons?

Could it be that she is a person with super powers?
Strictly speaking, monster hunters can all be considered as people with superpowers, but their superpowers come from the memes that infect themselves. People who do not rely on memes to gain superpowers... do such people really exist?
"I don't know." The puppeteer replied. "Huh?"

"Some of the Creeps I can control become my Creeps suits," the puppeteer continued. "Some I can't control will be disposed of."

"So, whether you can control it or not depends entirely on your feeling?" The corners of Sun Hang's eyes twitched involuntarily.

"Yeah." The puppeteer nodded.

Oh my god, this is too mysterious, right?

"So, you are really a superpower?"

"What is a mutant?"

"It means someone who has extraordinary powers without the help of memes." Sun Hang scratched his head. He didn't expect the other party to ask such a question. "Many online novels have elements of people with super powers... Uh, have you read the novels?"

The puppeteer shook his head.

"Huh... okay." Sun Hang glanced at the bracelet. There was still half an hour before the next positioning. "Let's rest here for a while and move after the positioning is uploaded."

The puppeteer also wore a bracelet of similar style on his wrist, but at Sun Hang's request, the positioning function of the puppeteer's bracelet had been temporarily turned off - this condition was not too excessive, and the people in Tianshu Tower did not refuse.

After all, the trial rules only stated that participants could not violently remove their own bracelets, but did not say that they could not violently remove the bracelets of hostages.

Sun Hang even thought, if two trial participants pretended to have a conflict and "accidentally" destroyed each other's bracelet during the fight... would that be considered a loophole in the rules?

Unfortunately, he seems to be the only trial-taker who escaped from the floating port.

The place where they were now was a small alley with not too much traffic. There were some old shops on both sides of the street. Sun Hang found a bench on the roadside and asked the puppeteer to sit down. He looked at the people and things around him, thinking about the next action plan.

Half an hour cannot be wasted. It would be a good idea to use this opportunity to get some survival supplies while the Tianshu Tower has not yet grasped its latest location.

Sun Hang had thought about rummaging through the trash cans in big shopping malls and supermarkets, but those kinds of places were all crowded with surveillance cameras. Even if he used his ability to hack into the cameras, the Tianshu Tower could easily lock onto his location by monitoring the "black areas" that suddenly appeared on the network.

Hostages are not omnipotent. The previous negotiations were successful because the opponent's elite combat forces were not present. With only an army composed of elite operators and ordinary people, even without the hostage of the Puppet Master, Sun Hang would most likely be able to break out by force.

But if we let the other party make arrangements in advance...

Ye Jiu said that there are more than a thousand hunters stationed in Chunming City. Sun Hang dare not guarantee that he can escape unscathed when facing these hunters.

"First, we need to find a way to get some money..."
