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

"A-level psionic energy?" Cassandra asked.

Fan Xiao nodded.

Having told the truth, he tentatively began to weave lies: "I can target a country and, through slaughter, temporarily absorb the power of the entire nation's people for my own use."

"This power is too chaotic and does not belong to me, so I cannot keep it forever. After everything is over, I will fall into a state of extreme weakness."

"Fortunately, the crisis in this memory world has finally been resolved."

"As for Shash Sen..."

He shook his head: "He sealed off space and created many spatial barriers, making it very difficult for me to break through them."

"Besides, the people living in Base A1 are all living, breathing people... I can't just go and massacre the entire city just to deal with Shash Sen, can I?"

"Perhaps this spiritual power should not have awakened within me."

"..."

Cassandra… or rather, Reflection, was taken aback.

However... she wasn't too surprised.

The ability to temporarily gather the power of all the people in a country... she didn't think of it as an S-class psionic ability.

Even in Dr. Zhuang's understanding, S-class psychic energy is more like a legend, and its very existence is questionable, so it's impossible for her to encounter it.

She had seen very few A-level psionic abilities... no, so far she had only encountered Cassandra, so she wasn't very clear about the extent to which offensive A-level psionic abilities could be achieved.

The grand scenes during the previous battle... were a bit exaggerated, but since it was an A-rank attack ability, it should be... about right?

"You haven't answered my question yet."

The weakened Van Shaw reminded Cassandra.

Cassandra snapped out of her daze, looked up, and first put on a complicated expression, then hesitated for a moment before finally compromising as if accepting Fan Xiao's dual identity, saying, "Players who enter this instance controlled by the teacher will all be trapped in their own world of guilt memories by 10 p.m.

"There are two ways to break free from the world of memories. One is to rely on one's comprehension. If one can understand, let go, accept and transcend one's guilt directly on one's own, one can break free from the 'realm of the id' and enter the 'realm of the superego'."

"The second method... as long as all the threats in the memory world can be eliminated, you can also passively pass the level and enter the 'super-ego world'."

“In the ‘superego’, there will be many doors. One of them is a door that leads back to the outside world, while the others lead to the ‘id’ of other players.”

"Really..." Fan Xiao said in surprise, "You cleared the level so quickly and came to my side from your 'superego'? That's pretty impressive."

"You should have some idea of ​​my abilities by now, right? I didn't get through the game through comprehension; I got here by crushing all the threats with my strength."

Cassandra replied, "I came here to help you. The teacher pulled you into the instance with the intention of rescuing you from Shash Sen's pursuit, but... coincidentally, a ticketed player entered, causing the instance to open directly."

She sighed softly, "Being trapped in the world of memories is a critical rule of the instance, and even the teacher cannot interfere with it."

"But the teacher herself cannot directly enter the world of memories, so she sent me here to help you pass the level."

"My teacher has been treating my injuries, so I haven't had a chance to tell you."

"Ticket player?" Fan Xiao frowned. "I didn't see him."

"Players entering the teacher's instance are initially in a different spatial dimension, so it's normal that you can't see other players."

Cassandra explained.

She looked around at the desolate battlefield and shook her head, saying, "I've made a wasted trip. You've already resolved the crisis on your own... Well, you are, after all, a player who can get an S-rank rating. You don't need me to help you with anything."

“I’m already very grateful for your kind gesture,” Fan Xiao said. “And you also provided me with information… Thank you, Miss Huiying.”

"It's nothing...!?"

Cassandra's pupils constricted sharply, and instinctively, she immediately activated her psionic power, "Silver Court."

In the illusion of time, she looked at Fan Xiao, who had frozen in place, and was filled with horror.

She's been exposed...when?!

Did she reveal any flaws?

what happened! ?

Unbeknownst to Huiying, Fanxiao had already explored the research institute beneath the orphanage and obtained a considerable amount of information. From this, she deduced that Fanxiao had ulterior motives towards Cassandra and that she seemed to be intentionally cultivating Cassandra's feelings of guilt.

After that, Fan Xiao entered the world solidified by his guilt memories. Because he was busy exploring his past, he did not delve deeper into the matter.

After he finished dealing with the young man, when he saw Cassandra appear, he recalled the information in his mind and made a simple deduction based on the characteristics of the "id world"—his junior sister had accumulated so many memories of guilt that once she fell into her own "id world," she would probably never be able to get out and would be trapped inside forever.

It's like the id and ego have been sealed away, leaving only the superego.

At this point, he made a bold assumption and roughly guessed the purpose of the reflection.

This guy's trying to possess someone!

The id, ego, and superego jointly govern the mind. Now that the first two are in trouble, if Huiying tries to seal away the junior sister's superego... then the junior sister's mind will become "ownerless." Huiying can then cover it with his own id, ego, and superego, and thus take over the position.

At that time, this guy will be both an A-level psionic player and a B-level dungeon boss.

Fan Xiao didn't know how likely this hypothesis was.

He was unaware of the characteristics of Echo's abilities and could only make some seemingly "taken-for-granted" guesses based on his theoretical knowledge.

Therefore, he did not take immediate action, but instead feigned weakness, lowered his stance, and briefly interacted with Cassandra to test the waters.

This feigned compliance serves three purposes.

First, confirm whether your guess is accurate.

Second... if it's accurate, then take the opportunity to find out some information about the dungeon from the dungeon boss himself.

Third...buy some time for yourself to awaken a false S-rank psionic ability.

Huiying is, after all, a dungeon boss, and who knows if she has any special privileges in the memory world—Fan Xiao's "persecution complex" kicked in, and even though he had an absolute advantage in strength, he still chose to be cautious and first increase his own strength.

And the result of his probing was... this guy really was a fake!

During the time he was pretending to give himself the potion, his S-rank psionic abilities began to gradually awaken.

Then, he first selected himself as a B-rank psionic fraudster with the lie-concealing attribute.

With his current mental strength, which surpasses the S-level range, the deceptive effects he can unleash are unmatched by ordinary players.

Fan Xiao tentatively began to tell his first lie—admitting that he possessed A-level psionic abilities and describing their effects.

The reflection believed it—the target trusted the lie, and he would receive psychic feedback from his side.

At the same time, the "fraudster" psychic can also give feedback on whether the other party is lying.

Coincidentally, the girl in front of him immediately lied to him—she lied when explaining how she came to his "realm".

No need to think about it, this guy is definitely Huiying himself!

At this point, Fan Xiao's conjecture was confirmed, and he obtained the method to travel to other people's "realm of self"—according to the feedback from the "fraudster," when Huiying recounted the method, he was telling the truth.

She probably wouldn't dare lie about something that could be verified with a little effort.

So Fan Xiao began to try to point out the psychic powers that could interfere with the id, ego, and superego.

The image of Huiying had taken over his junior sister's mind, so he couldn't bring himself to kill her now. He could only try to free her consciousness first.

As a result... he failed.

He couldn't generate this type of psionic ability.

Fan Xiao was greatly surprised, but quickly came to terms with it.

Id, ego, superego—this is probably the most fundamental rule of this game.

His current fake S-rank psionic energy is simulated within his own "realm of self" under the rules of the instance... Since it is a simulation, it naturally cannot interfere with the source of the simulation.

If he were to actually unlock a similar ability, he would probably be able to do whatever he wanted in this instance, even more so than the instance boss, Huiying.

To free the junior sister's consciousness, it seems we'll have to actively go to her "realm" and manipulate things.

Fortunately, the echo has already provided a way to get there.

With that in mind, Fan Xiao laid his cards on the table.

Of course, he didn't intend to let Huiying off the hook so easily.

Although we can't kill him directly right now, we can... capture and control him, torture and beat him, and try to force him to give up the body-stealing behavior.

There's no need to adhere to any code of honor when dealing with evil spirits and heretics.

……

Huiying felt a sense of panic, but her mind was still functioning normally.

During this false period of time, she forced herself to calm down and devised a plan.

As a dungeon boss, she has the privilege of being forced to leave once a day—meaning she can directly leave the player's "realm".

However, simply running away like this is definitely not an option.

Van Helsing has already dealt with the crisis in his own "id" realm, and it's only a matter of time before he gets out of there.

She can run away now, but the other party can catch up anyway, so it's pointless.

So... she had to take advantage of the opponent's weakened state to attack and finish him off!

Wait... was Van Helsing really that weak?

Could this guy be faking it?

“My lie detector didn’t detect it, and we can’t use any gadgets here. His own ability is offensive… so he must be telling the truth.”

With that in mind, Huiying no longer hesitated and prepared to take action.

She activated Cassandra's fatal weakness, the Gift of Imbuing, preparing to split Van Helsing in seventeen.

At the same time, she can also use touch as a medium to transfer this thing to other players' "id world".

She has prepared two high-risk "id realms" as backup!

Suddenly, Huiying found herself unable to move forward—there was clearly nothing in front of her, yet it felt as if she had bumped into a wall.

This startled her, and she quickly tried several other directions.

As a result... she discovered that some invisible yet exceptionally solid substance had formed a cage that enveloped her.

How... is this possible?!

when! !

Van Helsing had this ability?

Just how many abilities does he have?

Huiying felt bewildered and her scalp tingled.

She forced herself to calm down and used Cassandra's talent to destroy the invisible matter around her.

The more destruction she caused, the more alarmed she became—her talent could pierce through these substances, but... there were just too many of them!

Despite constantly using her talent to pave the way, she felt like she couldn't make a single step forward.

What level of player was Van Helsing?

How can so much mental energy be wasted on this kind of ability?

Meanwhile, in a higher dimension where the echo cannot be observed, a large group of little girls with black hair and red eyes are circling around her.

Some people gestured at her neck, some stared at her face, some were interested in her legs, some wanted to tear her face apart, and some wanted to gouge out her eyes...

If Huiying could see this scene, he would probably scream in fright.

She felt as if she were surrounded by a group of unseen, deadly ghosts.

The Silver Garden did not affect the higher-dimensional activities of the little angels.

They all raised their scythes, locking down the surrounding space and time.

They had no intention of harming Huiying, a point that Fan Xiao had already emphasized.

After all, damaging the current Echo is equivalent to damaging Cassandra.

In the next instant, countless crimson slashes were unleashed.

After the crimson scythe materialized, it immediately fell into a state of time freeze, fixed in place, unable to move at all—as was how it should have been.

But this time, the little angels defied common sense.

They seemed to have struck the concrete concept behind the psychic power of "Silver Court" with their scythes, tearing apart the false time on the spot and reverting the echo to its original form.
