See the Law of Deception

Chapter 125 Disaster
In the following days, Lu Jinzhao did not rush to do anything, nor did he choose to meet with other passengers first.

Her original plan was to wait for Lin Lin's news, meet with him first, and then talk about other things. However, even though she had rested for more than half a month, she still couldn't get through to Lin Lin on the phone.

Judging from the messages in the group, this death platform incident is still not over.

"Did it last that long?"

Lu Jinzhao felt somewhat heavy-hearted, but all she could do now was exercise every day, practice the martial arts she had inherited, and keep learning more knowledge that might come in handy.

To her surprise, even though the martial arts knowledge she inherited did not exist in reality, or rather, although it had similarities but was completely different in some aspects, it could still actually work.

Although it's not very noticeable, she could easily knock out her past self with a single punch now.

For her, climbing onto the roof and removing the tiles was an easy task, without even needing a ladder.

If she wanted to, she could even do some of the stunts that are only possible in kung fu movies.

"Strength, speed, and reaction ability have all improved, and the body's resistance to blows is also much better than before. However, when facing demons, apart from being able to run faster than ordinary people, I am still just a mortal body."

After all, the martial art she inherited was just a martial art; it couldn't allow her to develop anything strange.

but
Lu Jinzhao stretched out her right hand, her index finger which was originally bent casually. She deliberately stretched her index finger into the air, and a black pattern that looked like a tattoo was seen peeking out from the cuff of her sleeve. It slid out along the movement of her index finger, as if an invisible line was extending from Lu Jinzhao's index finger, controlling it and making it fall onto the table.

It is a crude shadow puppet.

In reality, she can still control shadow puppets.

However, the range of control and the things that shadow puppets can do are greatly reduced compared to when they are on the platform.

Now, at most she can only control the shadow puppet to perform a play for herself, or let it go out to bite people; its power is not much different from that of a small dog.

It hurts a lot when it bites, but it's not fatal unless it bites a specific spot, like the eyes, in which case it can be quite lethal.

Although her shadow puppet can be considered a little ghost, the materials used in its production were of poor quality, the manufacturing process was rough, and the holder of the destiny, Lu Jinzhao, was not powerful enough. As a result, the shadow puppet's means of attacking people were quite limited. It was far from being able to deal with ghosts, but it was already a devastating blow to humans.

It looks about the size of a palm, but it is quite fast. Although its attack method is physical, it can only cause damage by biting. The moment it sticks to the body, the person will be eroded by supernatural power and fall into a state of paralysis, just like Lu Jinzhao's experience in [Inheritance].

Ordinary people have no way to break free from the loss of control caused by a ghost getting close, even if it is just a small shadow puppet. If it falls on an ordinary person, it will be like a boulder weighing thousands of pounds.

Even if fire or water could be used to destroy her shadow puppets, they would never have the opportunity to do so.

Only the supernatural can fight the supernatural, which means that Lu Jinzhao could kill a passenger without a destiny or supernatural items on the platform with just a flick of his finger.

In some ways, they are even more terrifying than ghosts that are devoid of consciousness and wisdom.

Fortunately, she didn't have that kind of fetish.

Moreover, her current level means that her companions also generally possess at least two supernatural items, so even if she were to kill them, she would have to think twice.

After all, she who controls the shadow puppets is not a ghost, and her power is limited.

If the supernatural force that the shadow puppet is fighting against is too strong, it can cause her index finger to fracture, or even completely break, which would mean the "death" of the shadow puppet.

I've heard that some people's destinies are like a bottle of water. Normally, the bottle is full, but once they enter the platform and use the power of their destiny, it's like drinking water sip by sip. When the bottle is empty, they can no longer use it.

As for hers, it all depends on the strength of the "life bar". If it is just a bone fracture, it can be repaired and still be used, but if her finger is completely shattered and broken, it will be unusable.

This is also Lu Jinzhao's weakness.

If someone grabs her, ties her hands, and breaks her finger bones, it will break her destiny and cause her to lose control over the corresponding shadow puppet.

Even if the finger she used to store the shadow puppet was harder, it wasn't indestructible. "So, if someone cut off my finger and took it on a train, would it become a supernatural object?" Lu Jinzhao suddenly had a wild idea.

"No, it's still too weak."

Even though she had learned through her time on the core forum that her destiny was indeed "outstanding" and that it was a rare destiny that provided excellent offensive and defensive capabilities from the outset, Lu Jinzhao was still not satisfied.

"If the bell can't be used in reality, then for the next mission, I'll make another piece of my own skin."

In the real world, supernatural items, besides suffering backlash and consequences, are generally weakened, much like their destiny. This seems to be something the train deliberately did.

The wooden box, ever since she used the sheepskin fox to intimidate others, has been like a dead animal, remaining motionless unless she feeds it.

"Something just doesn't feel right."

She pulled out the sheepskin: "Did you threaten it?"

Sheepskin refused to speak, so Lu Jinzhao held it up and shook it repeatedly: "Speak, or I'll throw you into the toilet."

【? 】

【nausea!】

【Vicious!】

【cunning!】

【play hard!】

You think you can threaten me like this?

Ha! I have no sense of taste, no sense of smell, no sense of touch; that's completely irrelevant to me.

Why are you so agitated?
wrong.

Lu Jinzhao suddenly realized, "That's right, why is the sheepskin so excited?"
She always felt that if it were before, when she had just received the sheepskin from the station, even if she had said such a threat, this guy would probably have remained unmoved like a dead object.

At that time, the sheepskin gave her a stronger sense of eeriness, as if it were not a living thing, and the feeling of a ghost was quite strong.

but now.
Do you think I'm humiliating you?

Aren't you one of them?

That's the part that's wrong.

Can a ghost, a ghost without the consciousness of a living person, feel what humiliation is?

From what she understands so far, ghosts have a strong desire to kill, a lustful and greedy desire for the living, and will try to kill anyone who violates taboos. These seem to be the instincts of ghosts, a cold and unshakable mechanism.

But ghosts don't have self-respect, they don't have the sense of honor and shame that humans have, they can't be moved, and they can't have emotions.

If it is, then it's fake, and very fake; it wouldn't be as "vivid" as sheepskin.

After the sheepskin had devoured a third of her soul, it was becoming increasingly unlike a ghost.

Is this guy's target human thought?
Lu Jinzhao subconsciously thought, what if ghosts possessed human thinking and could understand human emotions?
That would be a complete disaster. Part of the reason why passengers can fight against ghosts now is because they are stupid, inflexible, and their intentions are too obvious and easy to see through.

A ghost with human-like thoughts, combined with the powerful abilities of sheepskin itself.
It was a complete disaster.
