He sensed the amount of luck required to find a player who could help resolve this trouble—based on this wish.
The answer is about a month.
"A month... to be on the safe side, it would take a little over a month. My current luck is definitely not enough; I need to keep saving, but time doesn't allow it..."
"Fortunately, the time factor can be compensated for by making a wish based on luck."
Fan Xiao realized that different nodes and different partitions have different time flow rates—if he could make good use of this, it could help him achieve a comeback from a desperate situation!
He was, after all, an S-class psychic. Although his psychic abilities were not fully awakened, he wouldn't be troubled by his current situation.
Fan Xiao continued to wait.
After waiting for almost an hour, there was still no response from the junior sister.
At this point, he was pretty much certain of his earlier guess—his junior sister was definitely trapped in her own instance.
So he didn't hesitate any longer and used the luck he had accumulated over the past few days to make a wish in his heart—hope that he could accumulate enough luck for a month before the Moneta dungeon closed.
After making his wish, he put the "headless silver serpent" that Tina had given him on his wrist.
The accessory immediately wrapped tightly around his wrist, as if binding his fate, and its function began to take effect.
Fan Xiao felt that his fate was connected to an infinite distance... well, that's just his imagination.
After doing this, he raised his right hand and smashed the car window next to him with a punch.
This commotion immediately attracted the attention of the other people in the carriage, and many players cast inquiring and wary glances in his direction.
Some people even showed gloating expressions, as if they wanted to see a good show.
Before the train guards could deal with him, Fan Xiao, under the astonished gazes of all the players, recklessly jumped out of the train window and landed in the chaotic spacetime outside the time-space track.
To make good use of the flow of time, one must naturally leave everything to the arrangement of fate.
Therefore, he needs to create the right conditions for luck to take effect.
Just like wanting to win the grand prize, you first have to buy a lottery ticket and give yourself a chance.
Falling and traversing through chaotic spacetime, with no fixed landing point—what would be suicide for others, he saw as an opportunity.
Chapter 504 The Battle of Silver
Dr. Zhuang stood in the garbage heap, looking at the pile of vomit at his feet, smelling the nauseating stench, feeling the string of reason in his heart stretched very tight... as if it was about to snap.
After being swallowed by the spatial rift, he dealt with the attacks of the silver sword light that came rushing in while trying to use an A-level teleportation item to escape the chaotic spacetime.
After falling into the real world, he came to this garbage dump and stepped on vomit mixed with the smell of alcohol.
Dr. Zhuang knew that his bad luck had most likely started again.
If he hadn't forcibly used the teleportation item to escape the chaotic flow of time and space, he might have drifted with the current and ended up in some strange and dangerous place.
With a soft sigh, Dr. Zhuang suppressed the rather helpless feeling in his heart.
After leaving the garbage dump, he looked around and found himself standing in an alley next to a bar.
After switching to a tool that could gather intelligence, he quickly obtained more precise location information—G03 node, 007 partition.
Fan Xiao and the others were nowhere to be seen.
Gu Hange also disappeared.
Given the chaotic spacetime environment before, it's impossible for everyone present to fall towards the same point; they must have been scattered.
"I've heard that there's a very talented student in the Kingdom of Destruction. Could it be her...?"
Dr. Zhuang recalled the young woman dressed like an ancient fairy and began to speculate.
The fact that they were able to break through and escape from Gu Hange's "Chaotic Heaven" domain undoubtedly means they possess extremely powerful A-level spiritual energy.
The space-time spanning dozens of kilometers had shattered, and silver sword light swept across the sky, surging through every inch of the fragmented space... Such a grand scene also proved that the woman's abilities were extraordinary.
It is also a powerful offensive psionic energy.
"That must be her."
Dr. Zhuang gradually confirmed this conjecture.
This technique... is probably not a spatial ability.
Anyway, he had never seen such brutal spatial interference before.
It's more like a conceptual attack...
Besides that woman, Fan Xiao's displayed abilities also made him quite... no, very concerned!
Those blood-red blades that appeared out of thin air and could only be detected by mental perception initially exhibited a "screen flickering" phenomenon and were not very stable, which was probably affected by Gu Hange's disordered domain.
However, this effect did not last even a second or two before it quickly dissipated.
After that, the crimson blade completely ignored the disordered domain and displayed unparalleled attack power.
You can only avoid it, not take it head-on.
All resistance will be annihilated and neutralized.
In the end, even the "Kingdom of Equality" released by Gu Hange was shattered.
This is... a bit too aggressive.
Although Gu Hange's domain ability can actively divide areas, it cannot distinguish between friendly and enemy units. Chaos and disorder are constant states, and everyone within the domain will be affected, including Gu Hange himself, who will also become unable to use items, talents, and other attack methods.
Therefore, it's impossible that she deliberately gave Fan Xiao special treatment, letting him have the best chance and allowing him to demonstrate his abilities.
She truly couldn't contain Fan Xiao's abilities.
Even A-level players experience inconsistent responsiveness when using A-level psionic energy, so why isn't Fan Xiao, a C-level player, affected?
Why?
Is it because the affinity between psychic and psionic powers is just right to counter each other?
Or... does the concept behind Fan Xiao's psychic power occupy a higher position than "chaos and disorder"?
Top-tier A-level psionic energy?
But Gu Hange's psychic abilities are already top-tier enough...
Going up another level... is Fan Xiao an S-class psionic potential user?
Thinking about this, Dr. Zhuang felt he could no longer remain calm.
Although the possibility was quite small, he took it seriously and carefully recalled memories from many years ago.
At the time, Fan Xiao was only 13 years old and did not show any potential for psionic abilities.
Either the testing instrument is malfunctioning—such errors exist and are normal.
Or... Vanshaw's abilities come from the talent development provided by the Evolution Game.
Considering Fan Xiao's current player level, this guess can be ruled out.
Even if a player develops a talent with the potential to reach rank A, it is impossible to upgrade the talent to rank A when it is already at rank C.
At best, it would only be upgraded to around level B.
"He probably awakened on his own. However, is there really a possibility that he is an S-rank psionic potential user?"
“He didn’t show anything special before, and he seemed very ordinary. If a boy of that age had any special ability, he should have been very flamboyant and had a strong desire to perform.”
"Unless he's a very good actor... but his emotions don't lie to me; he was genuinely naive at the time."
Dr. Zhuang carefully reviewed Fan Xiao's past memories but found nothing unusual in his behavior.
The more he flipped through the pages, the more regretful he became. Why hadn't he just looked up Fan Xiao's memories back then?
If he checks it and finds anything unusual, he will definitely be able to spot it immediately.
As for Gu Hange's memories... at that time, he valued this intelligent young woman highly. In addition, Gu Hange had awakened A-level spiritual energy, and with the intention of sincerely recruiting her, he gave her the most basic respect in his actions, and therefore did not touch her memories.
It seems... everything is normal.
Dr. Zhuang looked thoughtful and began to make assumptions in his mind.
What if... what if this normalcy is an "abnormality" orchestrated by chance?
Does that mean that there is a force protecting Fan Xiao, and through a series of coincidences, preventing him from discovering Fan Xiao's abnormality?
Upon careful reflection, it turned out that there was an accident during the experiment.
Solar storm... equipment malfunction... crowds gather on campus and cause trouble... experimental subjects escape in the chaos...
At the time, he was being targeted by the conservatives within the "One Wing" organization, so he attributed these accidents to someone interfering with him in secret.
After that incident, he was even hunted down by members of the same organization, which indirectly proved that he was indeed being targeted.
He made concessions at the time and did not conduct a thorough investigation.
The conservatives within the organization have long since died out, making it virtually impossible to reopen the investigation.
Thinking about this, Dr. Zhuang made another assumption—what if... what if those accidents back then were really just accidents, and not something someone was doing behind the scenes?
Unexpected... coincidence... bad luck... bad luck?
Damn it… Dr. Zhuang lowered his head and glanced at the vomit that was emitting a sour smell not far away. He had a feeling that he had inadvertently discovered some incredible information.
Fan Xiao... could very well be an S-class psionic potential user.
Of course, this is only a possibility; further verification is needed to determine the specifics.
Dr. Zhuang began to take Fan Xiao seriously.
In this way, Gu Hange will also become his enemy.
Now that things have come to this, he doesn't care about that anymore.
Gu Hange has always had the potential to be a double agent.
After calming his mind a little, Dr. Zhuang focused his energy on another matter.
During the previous battle, everyone was separated and fell into different time periods.
Cassandra, who is separated from her teammates, may have the possibility of communicating with the instance to return to partition 019.
He had already controlled several B-level players and used their tickets to enter the "Mone Tower" instance.
Among those people was his alter ego... or more precisely, "another him".
Once Cassandra communicates with the dungeon to return... the dungeon boss's return, and the entry of multiple ticketed players—both conditions must be met for the dungeon to automatically open.
Once the instance is activated, it will be completely disconnected from the outside world.
This means that he and "the other him" no longer have a causal connection—this connection is maintained by an S-rank item placed in the "One Wing" headquarters, and crossing nodes will not sever this connection; only an opened instance can isolate it.
Dr. Zhuang closed his eyes, sensed it carefully, then smiled and murmured, "She really is a naive young girl; her behavior is too easy to guess."
The causal link has been broken.
This means the "Mone Tower" instance has been opened.
This also signifies Cassandra's return to the 019 division.
Thinking of this, Dr. Zhuang took out his train ticket, preparing to go back and wait for the enemy to come to him—Fan Xiao and the woman would surely think of this as well and head to the 019 district for rescue.
At this moment, in his eyes, Vanshaw was more important than Cassandra.
At that moment, the back door of the bar, located in the side wall, suddenly opened.
Dr. Zhuang turned his head and saw four burly men wearing revealing vests walking out with their arms around each other's shoulders.
One of them saw Dr. Zhuang and his eyes lit up. He was immediately attracted by his refined demeanor and intellectual temperament. He whistled and gave a flirtatious look.
"Wow, this guy is well-maintained."
"She has such a great presence."
"So... he'll be the main course tonight?"
"I have no opinion."
After the four finished their conversation, they immediately surrounded Dr. Zhuang, revealing rather unrestrained smiles on their faces. While trying to strike up a conversation, they began to touch him inappropriately.
Dr. Zhuang: "..."
After using simple mental intervention to freeze the four people in place, Dr. Zhuang felt that the string representing reason in his heart... tightened a little more.
