Lucky billion players, you've never seen one before / I can accumulate my own luck

I'll go take a look when I have time.

Gawain nodded.

He thought Fan Xiao was just being polite and didn't pay much attention.

Next, the five of them stared at the interior of the research institute for a while.

The psionic monsters showed no sign of returning.

Seeing this, they all took out some food from their storage space and began to fill their stomachs.

Having gone a day and a night without eating and maintaining a state of high tension, all five of them had accumulated a lot of fatigue.

Fortunately, the feeling of fullness from the food mitigated some of this effect.

There is still a long time before the survival time ends.

Bored, the five began to discuss some details of the dungeon.

Gao Wen said, "In the end, we still don't understand whether the researchers' depravity is due to their inherent nature or the influence of Dr. Zhuang."

"That depends on the social environment of your 007 district."

Fan Xiao replied, "Society is a big melting pot. If there are problems with this kind of basic environment, then the researchers' degeneration is most likely their own choice."

"Once you've done something and tasted its sweetness, it's not surprising that you get more and more involved; on the contrary, it's quite in line with human nature."

"The environment of partition 007..."

Gao Wen thought for a moment, then sighed and said, "I'm not too sure about other areas, but our city is in pretty bad shape. It wasn't very peaceful before, and since the Evolution Game came out, there's been more and more chaos."

He sighed and said, "Perhaps, as you said, the researchers' degeneration was their own choice."

Why are you so concerned about the researchers?

Nori interjected, "Isn't the most noteworthy information about psionic abilities?"

"S-rank psionic energy! A combination of cosmic rules and spirit... I never expected that the highest level of psionic energy wouldn't be A-rank."

"Doesn't Division 001 have any information on S-level psionic abilities?" Fan Xiao asked in surprise.

“No,” Nori shook her head. “I’ve never heard of it.”

She remarked with a slight sigh, "S-rank psionic power, an independent growth system tree... It can become stronger on its own without relying on evolution games, it's too unbalanced."

"Only S-rank characters after awakening possess this characteristic."

Fan Xiao said, "Those who haven't awakened are called potential individuals."

"Those with potential also have extraordinary abilities."

Nori said, "The letter mentioned that S-class psionic potential users are all superpowered individuals who live in human society."

"If the evolution game hadn't come along, wouldn't these kinds of people be able to do whatever they want in the human world?"

"Hmm... I guess so," Fan Xiao agreed. "Superpowers are like a game-changer for ordinary people."

"I wish I could meet one."

Nori looked on with longing and said, "Since they are so rare that only a few appear at a spacetime convergence point, I suppose S-rank psionicists can achieve miracles that players can't... I wonder what the differences in their abilities are?"

"One difference might be the scope of application."

Fan Xiao said.

He has a deep understanding of this.

His luck allows him to have an impact across different regions.

For example, Tina was once "summoned" by him.

For example, a carriage on the time-travel train was disconnected because of him, and it traveled through time and space, falling right into the "Wangxiang Town" instance.

This is probably not the limit.

Fan Xiao felt that the scope of his superpowers might extend to an entire spacetime node.

It's even possible to accumulate more luck and involve other nodes in the process.

As for talents, other psionic abilities... well, none of them he'd ever seen had this kind of influence.

"Scope of application?"

Nori asked, "Why do you say that?"

“S-class psionic energy is a combination of cosmic rules and spirit,” Fan Xiao laughed. “Cosmic rules, the key is ‘cosmic,’ which is a very broad scope, isn’t it?”

"...That's a really simplistic and crude guess."

Nori complained.

This topic also piqued the interest of Gawain, the head maid, and the head guard.

There are very few things related to S-rank in evolution games.

This level seems to have a natural appeal to players.

Even the taciturn head guard spoke up, revealing a sense of curiosity and longing in his words.

Of course, they probably never dreamed that a potential S-class psionic power user was currently mixed in with them.

They were chatting and laughing with him.

……

The "Seventh Research Institute" instance has ended.

[Player "Seal" received a dungeon rating of A]

[Player "Evil King's True Eye" received a C rating in the dungeon]

[Player "Warrior Lord" Dungeon Rating: C]

[Player "Head Maid" Dungeon Rating: C]

[Player "Captain of the Guard" Dungeon Rating: C]

After the seventh day, the instance officially closed.

The five survivors all received game notifications.

Fan Xiao didn't look at his reward for the moment, but glanced at Nori.

The little girl changed her name quite quickly; it seems she really likes this nickname.

Chapter 221 New Psychic Interference Tools

[Dungeon Rewards: 1 C-grade item, 1 Time Travel Ticket, 3 D-grade Evolution Potions, 3 D-grade Healing Potions, 3 D-grade Mental Recovery Potions, 2 D-grade Antidotes, 1 D-grade Aphrodisiac, 3 Game Coins]

[Rank C Item - Lost Kingdom]

In the eastern region of the Tata Sea, a beautiful legend is told: a hundred years ago, a benevolent god descended upon this land. Seeing the people suffering from the ravages of war, he took pity on them and bestowed upon the land a blessing with his divine power, creating a kingdom free from pain and sorrow.

Even now, there are still people trapped in pain and despair who believe in this legend and try to find this legendary kingdom in the Eastern Regions. They set out across the sea, but never returned.

Intrigued by this phenomenon, the explorers followed the direction the people had gone, searching across most of the Tata Sea. Finally, in the easternmost part of the Tata Sea, they discovered a country and found the missing people. These people all wore perfectly natural, happy smiles, as if they had been staged.

The eerie scene sent chills down the explorers' spines, prompting them to consider fleeing the area immediately.

They quickly forgot about it.

They also forgot all the pain and sorrow in their memories, even the purpose of their journey, and forgot that they wanted to go home.

And so they began a new life here, a happy life without pain or sorrow.

[Note 1: Equipping items allows you to recreate the territory of the Lost Kingdom by consuming Spirit Power. The specific area that can be recreated depends on the Spirit Power you consume.]

[Note 2: You can designate a target within your territory to temporarily forget certain things. The duration of this forgetting depends on the target's mental and willpower strength.]

After turning his gaze away from Nori, Vanshaw looked at the new items he had acquired.

"A prop for mental interference?"

"Moreover, it has a group-wide effect."

After reading the introduction, he showed a slightly surprised expression.

In terms of effectiveness, mental interference items undoubtedly rank among the top of all types of items.

Because it targets people.

No matter how powerful the hostile target's talents or tools are, once their mind is interfered with and their hostility disappears, they will no longer attack... What good are powerful tools then?

A mental interference item that eliminates the need for a "counter-attack" offensive and defensive battle with the enemy.

If you can't solve the problem, then solve the people who created it—that's the best approach.

As long as you don't encounter hostile units like mechanical lifeforms, the versatility of spirit items is quite good.

Fan Xiao was extremely satisfied with the prop "Lost Kingdom".

However, he soon encountered a problem.

His item slots are now full, and all four equipped items are very useful.

If it's a replacement...

"Blood Noble" primarily uses physical attacks;

"Child of the Abyss" combines active and passive defense;

The "Dustless Shield" has powerful auxiliary functions and can also be used as a defensive item;

None of these three items can be touched.

Only "Rabbit Prince" and "Lost Kingdom" are mental interference items, so from the perspective of attribute repetition, the only alternatives are these two.

Fan Xiao was caught in a dilemma.

"Prince Rabbit" can not only draw aggro and distract enemies, but also take the fall for its master when exploring new dungeons, stepping on potential dangers in advance... It can be described as hardworking and selfless.

Although its mental interference is not strong and its level is only D, its practicality is quite high.

Replacing it... is such a waste.

Moreover, there is no compromise between these two items.

Because "Prince Rabbit"... is just too big.

He is already over four meters tall.

With such a size, it cannot be stored in the player's inventory and carried around if it is taken out of the inventory.

Unless he takes the rabbit doll with him wherever he goes.

Otherwise, after taking them off, you either have to sell them or throw them away.

After thinking it over, Fan Xiao still couldn't bear to throw away the rabbit.

"I think I should pair up the Lost Kingdom with the Abyss Child as replacement items. Anyway, I don't usually cause trouble, and I don't need to attack others often."

"When there is a need to attack, temporarily switch to the Lost Kingdom. As for other times... the Abyss Child is a passive buff that can work continuously without interruption. It cannot be removed normally, otherwise it is easy to be hit silently when facing some strange abilities."

Ultimately, he made certain trade-offs.

Given his strength, he should rarely encounter situations where he has to use mental attack items.

He can handle most dangers with his other tools, so the appearance rate of "Lost Kingdom" is estimated to be low.

Therefore, the plan to temporarily sacrifice defense in exchange for attack when necessary is not flawed in terms of feasibility.

At this moment, Gao Wen noticed that Fan Xiao seemed troubled and asked, "What's wrong? Didn't you get any good items? Wasn't it supposed to be an A-level rating?"

After a dungeon runs out of content, only players who didn't receive the expected rewards usually show this expression.

“You don’t understand,” Fan Xiao sighed softly, “Sometimes getting good items can be quite troublesome.”

"Why would you be troubled after getting something good?" Gawain asked with a puzzled look, "What are you thinking?"

"See? I told you you wouldn't understand."

Fan Xiao shook his head slightly.

His true expression is usually not visible on his face, so Gao Wen could see his "worried face" because it was intentional.

Now that the other party has taken the bait, he responded in a very irritating way: "Have you heard of decision paralysis? When faced with multiple good things, you can only choose one because of limited financial resources, so you will struggle and hesitate."
