Terrible news! My deskmate's first chapter is gone!

It was rush hour and there was some traffic. An hour later, the three of them arrived outside the author's house.

The "outside" here doesn't refer to the outside of the gate; outside vehicles are not allowed to drive directly into the author's villa.

The three of them were to walk in.

Fortunately, it's not far.

When Chen Xi looked at the historical stone tablets, he read through all the identities and innate talents.

There are four that are particularly special.

One: An emperor who has never awakened.

There's a lot of conflict here.

That is the audience of the fourth sequence, who gains experience points by observing all the overlord sequences.

If the emperor has never been awakened, how can he observe the emperor?

Or does observing something as fake also count?

That should be impossible.

While inanimate historical artifacts like stone tablets may not lie, so too do factual conclusions!

The audience has definitely upgraded.

And when I woke up, I didn't see Gate 1. What's going on?

There's no solution to this for now; we'll have to ask the Dreamer when we enter the Black Tower later.

See if there are any clues, or if you run into the actor who played the role.

Second: The serial number 405 of the janitor who talks a big game.

This is what puzzled Chen Xi the most.

The identity of a cleaner was indeed fabricated by him, but it could also be considered a sudden inspiration.

It was a reasonably plausible profession that Chen Xi had created after eliminating the identities of those in the group.

According to Chen Xi's memory, he had seen a total of 8732 professions, including both those that were eliminated and those that were not, both ancient and modern.

The actual situation is certainly more complex.

Even if we calculate based on 1, the probability of guessing correctly is one in ten thousand.

Although it was possible, Chen Xi still found it very strange that he had actually won.

Unfortunately, he lacked even the slightest bit of the creativity to make his words come true or to possess the qualities of an author or a dreamer.

Fortunately, Yang Wei was there.

Chen Xi has already told Yang Wei to tell him immediately whenever he sees the words "cleaner".

He needed to determine when the other party awakened—whether it was before or after the day he fought with Old Wang next door.

Third: Hyperthymesia, ranked number one among the strongest talents.

This was an answer that was both unexpected and reasonable to Chen Xi.

Whether it's farmers suppressing hyperthymesia or hyperthymesia using it as a pretext to gain power.

Chen Xi intends to revive this power.

There's just one thing that's a little awkward.

When Chen Xi faced the curly-haired imposter before, he was very righteous and firm in his attitude, saying in a firm tone, "If there is no emperor, then on the side of the extraordinary, I, a farmer, will take up this banner."

What's going on here?

Should we carry the flag of the opposing side?

Chen Xi used to struggle with her identity, but after learning that hyperthymesia was the number one supreme talent, she was less conflicted.

The lifespan of the False King is also a mystery; could it truly be infinite?

Or is it that one's lifespan is indeed affected by the number 1 forbidden item, the Reverse Fate Clock?

This conclusion is still unknown, because Chen Xi has not used any containment objects other than the Black Tower Sphere.

Even assuming the Black Tower Sphere is not a containment object, it still conforms to the rule that a pseudo-human cannot use any containment objects.

In this way, Chen Xi would have no connection with the Reverse Clock.

Fourth, the fifth sequence, "The Lucky Ones".

Most extraordinary individuals have a profession, but there are a few exceptions, such as the dead, those who are obsessed with supporting their brothers, and madmen.

Lucky and obviously not the same profession.

Literally, this is a status exclusive to the luckiest person.

You need to encounter lucky events to gain experience points, such as drawing cards in the game, winning 500 million in the lottery, or stealing the neighbor's underwear without being caught.

It has a high degree of randomness.

The fifth sequence is a sequence that has been taken over and assimilated by the false humans, and it will be a formidable adversary in the future.

Be very careful if you encounter someone in the future whose abilities are linked to luck.

Even if Chen Xi awakens hyperthymesia, he cannot reveal his identity as the fake human king, otherwise he would really be caught in the middle.

At this stage, he needs to keep a low profile and bide his time.

Finally, there's the "mold of all things" that the father mentioned before turning into a stick; this isn't any of the 108 innate talents.

At the same time, no innate talent name seems to be able to turn into a stick or weapon.

In other words, the father is not a fake.

Chen Xi didn't know whether he should be happy or unhappy about the answer.

He disagreed with the speculation that his father was a fraud.

It has nothing to do with family ties; otherwise, it wouldn't fit the logic of a pseudo-human awakening.

In hindsight, he was right.

But this undoubtedly adds to the mystery.

The father was the first extraordinary power user that Chen Xi had ever seen, transformed from an ordinary person.

This person with extraordinary power is neither a superhuman nor a fake.

It's a pity Yang Wei wasn't there at the time, otherwise I really wanted to see what was on his head.

If nothing unexpected happens, it should be the fifth type of existence besides superhumans, fake humans, containment objects, and mysterious numbers!

Aside from these four, the other Overlord Sequence and Supreme Talent might also be extraordinary, but Chen Xi has neither learned about them nor come into contact with them yet.

"Which city are you from?"

Chen Xi asked casually.

"I'm from the local area."

Wang Sanjin replied.

"I couldn't detect any accent at all. Are you a newcomer to Sheung Shui?"

"right."

"Pretty impressive. To be honest, most of the newcomers to Sheung Shui are much better than the locals."

"It's remarkable that people from other places can settle down in a place with housing prices like this."

"It was alright. I'm more than ten years older than you. Back then, housing prices weren't as outrageous as they are now."

"I'm the typical small-town test-taker. My family used to be very poor, and my mom always forced me to study. She would beat me every day if I didn't study."

"Looking back now, it just so happens that I have a talent for studying; otherwise, no amount of beating would have helped."

"As for the locals, even if they don't earn as much as I do now, they are much happier than me in the long run."

Chen Xi nodded without refuting:

"Can we work together from now on?"

Chen Xi's main purpose was merely to get closer to her; the Invisible Blade and Leap effects were exactly what she needed.

"OK."

"After I return home, I'll take care of some things at home and then come to see you."

"Let's follow along and see what's happening."

Wang Sanjin agreed very readily this time.

Chen Xi had invited him before, but the answer was still pending.

His coming here does not mean he agrees.

On one hand, he was indeed there to help Chen Xi, since it was because of the information Chen Xi gave him that he was able to quickly upgrade from a deliveryman to a jumper.

I came to help, both to repay this kindness and to see how far I could go in the face of a hypocrite.

After all, Wang Sanjin had never fought any fake person head-on, so it was difficult for him to judge his own strength.

The result was obvious: with his abilities, he could not remain unaffected, so he needed to, and could only, join Chen Xi.

First, I'm familiar with it.

Secondly, the strength is sufficient.

Furthermore, since there is no emperor now, theoretically the farmers have the highest potential.

Not long after.

The three of them then arrived at the author's house.

The door was open, which doesn't fit the author's lewd character.

Clearly, this was made by the curly-haired imposter. Once inside, it was much better than Chen Xi had imagined.

There are signs of damage, but not many.

After all, apart from the self-destruction of the curly-haired fake man, the other three's abilities were not particularly large-scale.

"Let's check it together and see if there are any clues."

Chen Xi didn't suggest separating, not because she was wary of Yang Wei or Wang Sanjin, who were newcomers, but because she was afraid they might misjudge him.

The house has three floors above ground and two floors below ground. The three people started their inspection from the top floor.

The search was fruitless, and the ground floor, the one they entered from, was the most severely damaged.

This is a terrible result, as it means that the two people brought out by the curly-haired imposter are the real one!

Although the answer was almost a certainty, Chen Xi still held onto a sliver of hope that a miracle might occur.

The three of them then arrived at the second basement level, the same level where they had previously watched the surveillance footage.

This layer was almost completely undamaged; the curly-haired imposter might not have even come down.

Besides the monitoring room, there is only one other room on the second basement level, and the door is locked.

Without thinking much, Chen Xi stepped forward and grasped the doorknob. Suddenly, his eyelids twitched:

"A miracle!"
