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

"No, we are different."

Fan Xiao replied as if answering a question quickly: "I learn everything fast, not just knowledge, but also skills, covering a wide range."

"You know about the 'unconscious memory method'? It involves the mutual transformation of 'unintentional memory' and 'intentional memory' to achieve a near-photographic memory."

"I learned this skill very quickly."

doctor:"……"

Fan Xiao continued, "And..."

"and many more!"

Dr. Cheng quickly stopped him from continuing at Versailles.

At the same time, his brows furrowed.

He didn't want to ask about these irrelevant, trivial matters.

What he wanted to know was whether the other party was an evolved being or a player.

Dr. Cheng began to guide the conversation with questions: "Have you made any changes to your lifestyle recently, such as a sudden increase in your appetite?"

"No."

"Have you ever thought about attacking cats, dogs, or other animals because you were hungry?"

"No."

"And what about your strength? Has it suddenly increased?"

"No."

Upon hearing the answer, Dr. Cheng sighed.

Unfortunately, this time the patient turned out to be just an ordinary mental patient.

As expected, you don't always get to encounter Evolvers and players.

Dr. Cheng concealed the disappointment on his face and quietly waited for the effects of the medicine to wear off.

Since the other party is not the target, we can only proceed according to the normal procedure.

Just then, Fan Xiao suddenly spoke up: "Anemic earrings."

"……what?"

Dr. Cheng was taken aback.

The next instant, a crimson light flashed in his vision, hurtling towards him and grazing his cheek.

No, it didn't brush past.

The crimson stain disappeared immediately after cutting through the skin and capillaries on his face.

Game items!

The other party is a player!?

Dr. Cheng was so shocked that he stood up and immediately tried to take out his props to fight back.

Unfortunately, Fan Xiao had the advantage of going first and was one step ahead of him.

The next second, Dr. Cheng suddenly felt dizzy and lightheaded, and his vision began to sway.

His blood was being manipulated by Fan Xiao, preventing oxygen from being delivered to his brain, causing waves of dizziness to wash over him.

Completely unable to use the props, Dr. Cheng collapsed to the ground.

Fan Xiao calmly stood up, took the tea he had left over, went to Dr. Cheng's side, and forced the drowsy doctor to drink it all.

"Dr. Cheng, you're a player, right?"

Fan Xiao asked tentatively.

“Ugh…” A look of painful struggle appeared on Dr. Cheng’s face.

"Your mental strength is quite good. It seems this medicine won't do you any good."

Fan Xiao was a little surprised.

Then, he took out the bottle of E-grade truth serum that he had been rewarded with in the previous dungeon from his player storage space.

Then he poured it all down the throat of the other person.

Soon, the struggle on Dr. Cheng's face disappeared.

Fan Xiao temporarily stopped manipulating the blood.

He wasn't afraid that the other party was just pretending to trick him, and then taking the opportunity to use the time-space ticket to escape into the instance.

The Time Travel Ticket can only be used after leaving the battle.

This information was published on the Special Affairs Bureau's official website, as if warning all players to behave themselves.

"Dr. Cheng, you're a player, right?" Fan Xiao asked again.

Dr. Cheng replied without any resistance, "Yes."

Fan Xiao then asked, "What is the player's level?"

"E-level."

Are you looking for other players?

"Yes. In addition to players, evolved beings are also our targets."

Dr. Cheng proactively stated, "Many evolved individuals are initially troubled by their own mutations, and since hospitals cannot find the cause, they tend to believe it's a psychological problem."

"Players returning from the dungeon are likely to experience post-traumatic stress disorder and will require psychological treatment."

"Using my current identity, I have successfully located 3 evolved beings and 1 player."

"fishing……"

Fan Xiao's face became more serious.

We... This means that Dr. Cheng has an organization behind him.

Furthermore, based on the current situation, this organization is likely unofficial and player-created.

Wild player groups are fishing for other players...

Fan Xiao realized the seriousness of the situation, so he turned on his phone and started recording, preparing to gather evidence for a report: "What is your purpose in looking for the evolved beings and players?"

“Raising them is like raising livestock. We have a special tool that can control their families and use them as leverage to force them to keep entering dungeons and hand over all the dungeon rewards.”

"Special item? What kind of item?"

"It is a D-grade item held by the BOSS. By touching it, a mark can be left, and then the user can remotely control others to die from a certain disease. However, it is only effective on ordinary people and evolved individuals with low evolution rates. It is ineffective on evolved individuals with an evolution rate of more than 7%."

"Your boss has D-level items? He's a D-level player?"

"Yes, the BOSS was involved in the evolution game from the very beginning, and he became a D-level player a month after the game was released."

"What happened to the three evolved beings and one player you discovered?"

"Two of the four refused to obey, and the BOSS killed them and their families."

Dr. Cheng replied in a flat, emotionless voice, "The remaining two haven't come back since they went to the dungeon last time. I guess they probably died in the dungeon."

"I guess so."

Fan Xiao's expression remained unchanged as he continued, "Besides using psychologists to lure players, what other methods do you have for finding them?"

"Yes. We often encounter players from the same world in E-level dungeons. We just need to pretend to be nice and approach them to get their contact information."

Dr. Cheng replied, "In reality, each member uses a different search method, which is very inefficient. My efficiency is the highest."

"How many of you are there?"

"Initially there were eight official members, but two died in infighting, including the BOSS, leaving only six. And the evolved beings and players that we six have been raising currently number twelve."

An organization of eighteen players... that's really explosive information.

Fan Xiao never expected that he would encounter such a thing just by casually going out to see a psychologist.

Of course, he was only surprised by the extent of his bad luck.

The existence of the "breeding organization" did not surprise him.

Isn't it just about sucking other people's blood to grow stronger?

Such things are commonplace in modern society.

It's not surprising that this is happening among a new group of gamers.

Even the players' methods were somewhat rudimentary, making it impossible to achieve victory without bloodshed.

Chapter 37: There is no hope, just wait to die

After obtaining the identity information of all members of the "breeding organization".

Before the effects of the truth serum wore off, Fan Xiao asked Dr. Cheng what props he possessed.

Of course, he didn't forget to turn off his phone's video recording before asking this question.

After all, double-crossing is not a respectable act, so there's no need to record it.

"I have three E-rank items."

Dr. Cheng explained, "The first item, 'Extreme Electrotherapy,' is a 1-meter-long stun baton. If it touches a target, it can stun players with an evolution rate below 20% within 3 seconds."

"The second item, 'Passionate Tortoise Shell Binding,' is a 10-meter-long rope, about the thickness of a thumb. Once released, it will fly towards the target and bind them."

"The third item, the 'Weather Doll,' will automatically predict and broadcast the weather for the following week once activated."

Upon hearing this, Fan Xiao immediately said, "Take out the props, relinquish all ownership, and then hand them all over to me."

"..."

The "command," distinct from a "problem," brought back a look of struggle to Dr. Cheng's otherwise indifferent face.

1 seconds, 2 seconds...

As time went by, Dr. Cheng's struggles grew heavier.

Suddenly, his gaze refocused.

Upon seeing Fan Xiao so close, he reacted immediately, revealing a cold look in his eyes, and took out an item from his inventory.

Then, a rope appeared in Dr. Cheng's hand.

However, before he could even call out the name of the prop to launch the attack, Fan Xiao snapped his fingers.

Thud—A tremendous wave of dizziness washed over Dr. Cheng again, causing him to collapse to the ground.

Fan Xiao remained calm and composed, showing no sign of tension.

Dr. Cheng's blood had long been connected with the "anemic earring".

For an hour, Dr. Cheng had no chance to resist him.

Unless someone possesses the same extraordinary talent as him, capable of killing with a single thought without moving an inch.

However this is impossible.

A prospective player has unlocked an A-level talent – ​​Fan Xiao probably thinks he's the only one on Earth with that.

"Your first reaction is to use items? Are you a cannibalistic player? No talent?"

Fan Xiao snatched the rope from Dr. Cheng's hand, examined it for a few moments, and warned, "Let me remind you, if I so much as think about it now, I can make you... bang... explode. Your blood will be splattered all over the place, and your body won't even be intact. If you understand, then don't try anything funny."

As he spoke, he slightly reduced his manipulation of blood, giving the other party room to communicate.

"How do you have such powerful items?" Dr. Cheng, enduring intense dizziness and nausea, asked unwillingly, "Are you a D-level player?"

"This has nothing to do with you."

Fan Xiao didn't waste any words and went straight to the point: "Now, take out your remaining two props and relinquish ownership of them."

Game items cannot be used immediately upon acquisition.

Only those who own the item can trigger its special effects by calling its name.

Ownership remains unchanged even if an item is stolen, unless the player voluntarily relinquishes it.
