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

He already knows many secrets.

This includes the amount of S-class psionic energy.

In other words, there's one thing he can be certain of even before he does it—that is, even if he accumulates two more months of luck and imitates his initial approach by using his luck on developing new talents, he still won't be able to unlock a second talent with S-level potential.

After all, it's not like some common cabbage.

"The luck I had in the first two months was just to get the attention of the god behind the evolution game. The twin angels weren't something I obtained through luck, but rather... the god made an incredibly huge investment in me. God shouldn't have a second or third type of S-class psionic fragment."

"So, even if I try to accumulate luck for another two months, at best I can only obtain a fragment of A-grade psionic energy of a specific attribute."

"As for the fragments of A-grade psionic energy, judging from Lu Baizhi's experience, their initial state displayed in the player's talent bar should be C-grade talent."

Thinking of this, Fan Xiao sighed silently again.

C-level talent... Damn it, are you trying to fob off beggars?

To upgrade it to A-level psionic energy would likely take a considerable amount of time, requiring continuous upgrades and improvements... a conservative estimate would be at least a year.

It's hard to go from extravagance to frugality!

"It seems... there's no need to risk going out of your way to accumulate two months of luck just for some initial C-rank talent?"

As Fan Xiao pondered, he murmured something under his breath.

If you want to obtain A-grade psionic energy, there is also the path of achieving S-grade dungeon ratings.

Moreover, by taking this path, one can directly obtain complete A-grade psionic energy in one step, without the need for the slow process of upgrading one's talent.

All he needs to do is use his luck to make a wish and get the corresponding dungeon ticket, which reduces the amount of luck required by more than half... No, maybe he can try contacting Tina and have her find the corresponding ticket for him through the "Wheel of Fate". This way, he doesn't even need to spend any luck and can get it for free.

The only risk is that dungeons that can achieve an S-rank rating are extremely difficult and dangerous.

"At this stage, I have to use all the luck I've accumulated on developing the psionic abilities of the Whale Fall members. I don't have any extra energy to use on my new talents."

"Unless I give up the idea of ​​rapidly improving my strength in a short period of time and spend more than a year slowly upgrading to the A-level spiritual energy I want... What I want is spiritual energy that can greatly improve my mental strength so that I can support the opening of the Breakthrough. If I choose this path, I think I will have to wait a year to open the Breakthrough on my own."

"So... I might as well take a risk, choose to get Tina for free, and challenge for an S-rank dungeon rating."

After careful analysis, Fan Xiao made a decision.

In this way, you can be more casual about developing new talents.

For example, you could ask Lu Baizhi to simply offer him a blessing, or develop a simple application; there's no need for extensive preparation.

"Lu Baizhi was able to develop a talent with a potential of A grade. If her blessing were to befall me, although the effect wouldn't be as good as if it were used on myself, it shouldn't be too different... I can probably guarantee that I can unlock a talent with a potential of B grade."

With that in mind, Fan Xiao no longer hesitated and exchanged his two A ratings for talent development opportunities before teleporting out of the instance.

Chapter 662 This is totally a terrorist organization, isn't it?

Because the instance was entered from inside the research institute, after clearing the instance and leaving, Fan Xiao was directly teleported back to his original location—a corridor inside the research institute.

The corridor's floor, walls, and ceiling had all been caught up in the dungeon and destroyed in the aftermath of the battle.

Without the support of this section of the wall, a large area of ​​the surrounding building structure collapsed, but no one was injured.

Fan Xiao cautiously looked around and, finding no ambush, breathed a sigh of relief.

His mental strength has not yet recovered, and his current combat power is in a very weak state. If he falls into an ambush at this time and cannot win... he will have no choice but to slink away from Fairy Tale Town.

It's not that he dislikes running away; if you can't win a fight, running away is perfectly normal.

The main reason is that he still has two things to finish, so he can't run away for the time being.

The fact that there were no ambushes in the research institute is the best possible situation for him at this stage.

After confirming the surrounding environment, Fan Xiao didn't delay any longer and murmured, "Mirror."

The B-grade item, the Mirror, was activated. He entered the mirror world through the mirror created by his mind and began teleporting.

The research institute has a complex environment with many corridors and rooms, and walls that separate them, so it is not exactly an open space.

Therefore, he did not use the newly acquired "Super Hole Man" to teleport—the teleportation point of this item must be an open space.

With walls blocking his way on all sides, his performance was greatly limited.

For dealing with this kind of indoor environment, a "mirror" is clearly more suitable.

Soon, Fan Xiao arrived at the location of the laboratory—the place where the "Type A Mental Field Generator" and various attribute fantasy substances were stored.

This behavior would undoubtedly expose his whereabouts... no, I'm afraid his whereabouts were already exposed the moment he left the instance and entered this research institute.

It was as if the enemy had seen through his infiltration from the very beginning.

Among those one-wing members, it seemed that some could detect anomalies through their spiritual aura and accurately track targets.

Fan Xiao naturally didn't want to reveal that he had left the instance so early, but... the force field generator and the attribute fantasy matter were things he had to obtain, as they were related to the psionic awakening process of the Whale Fall members, and he couldn't afford to make any mistakes.

Therefore, he needs to come to the lab to confirm it.

"The lab... is empty."

Fan Xiao broke the reinforced glass, entered the laboratory, looked around, and frowned: "They were taken away as expected."

The situation was roughly as he had predicted.

Yes, he had already guessed this ending.

But while it's all speculation, these things need to be confirmed on-site.

He immediately took out his monocle and put it on his right eye.

"Truth Overcomes All" seemed to know what he wanted to investigate, and quickly and accurately located the intelligence from a large amount of past information, presenting it to him in the form of animation.

In the animation, two clear figures enter the laboratory, with the names "Duran" and "Shengzi" above their heads respectively.

Sheng Zi activated a spatial artifact that could contain all the equipment and elemental fantasy substances in the laboratory in an instant.

“Duran, I’ll take care of the equipment and resources for now. That guy is most likely someone Dr. Zhuang sent. Now that we’ve completely broken ties with him, if he can’t find us after he gets out, he might take the opportunity to reclaim the resources we brought. These resources weren’t easy to accumulate, we can’t let him get them for free!”

Sheng Zi glanced at her teammate who was floating in the air beside her, without any limbs: "As for mobilizing the B-level players from Xingyi City, I have given orders to the other members, and they have already begun to take action."

"The situation is urgent, so don't blame me for taking over your command."

"What you need to do most right now is to recover from your injuries as soon as possible and regain your fighting ability."

"The loss of limbs does not affect the use of psionic energy and items!" Duran frowned and said, "Besides... my limbs will not recover in a short time, so there is no need to waste time repairing them. Let's do the job of mobilizing B-level players together! Samael's dungeon will not hold that guy for long."

“We’ve all left the instance and are completely separated from that guy… Your injuries still haven’t healed?” Sheng Zi asked in surprise.

"It's not that it can't be recovered, but that the recovery speed is too slow."

Duran said, "There's no need to discuss this anymore. Just do as I say."

"This research institute is temporarily abandoned. We need to conceal our presence and accumulate strength."

"You have to remember to keep a close eye on that guy. Notify me immediately the moment he comes out!"

“I know that without you saying it,” Sheng Zi nodded. “I’ve memorized his spiritual aura. As long as he’s still in Zone 004, he can’t escape my senses. Even with A-level concealment items, he can’t hide! But… what if he doesn’t confront us head-on and chooses to leave?”

“Since he was sent by Zhuang Yan, he must have a mission.”

Duran said, "It seems that Zhuang Yan has not given up on the G08 node. As long as we stay here, that guy will not be able to leave."

"Moreover...once the manpower is gathered, the initiative will shift to our hands."

"We could easily lead our player army to him, and then... kill him!"

At this point, he suddenly remembered something else and quickly reminded Sheng Zi, "Right! You should contact headquarters immediately and report Zhuang Yan's underhanded tactics to our conservative leadership."

"This is a handle! If used well, it can bring down Zhuang Yan... although it's impossible, it can still disgust him a lot."

“I understand,” Sheng Zi nodded, then asked, “Besides this, should we… request backup?”

"Not for now!"

Duran said seriously, "Do you want the higher-ups to know about our incompetence so quickly?"

“Right now, S-level players can’t get to node G08 at all. Even if we call for backup, at most a few A-level players will come, which won’t be of much help.”

“Our lack of combat power can be completely made up for by the nearly one hundred B-level players of the Star Memory City Alliance. Moreover, once Samael comes out, we can have him call on other members of the Twilight Council to come and provide support.”

"In terms of combat strength, we should have enough. We can handle this entirely on our own. So... you understand what I mean, right?"

“Understood,” Sheng Zi said. “We will not seek support from headquarters until our plan yields results.”

“Let’s get moving!” Duran said. “We must make the most of the time that Samael has bought us.”

After their conversation, the two left the laboratory.

The animation ends abruptly here.

Fan Xiao, having obtained the complete intelligence, frowned.

He was mistaken by the people at One Wing for a thug sent by Dr. Zhuang... It was quite dramatic.

It seems that there is not unity within One Wing, and there are many undercurrents of infighting... He is naturally happy to see anything that can cause trouble for Dr. Zhuang.

Let's just leave this misunderstanding as it is.

What actually made him frown was something else—S-level players couldn't come to node G08... What was going on?

There is never a rule in the game of evolution that prevents S-level players from reaching lagging nodes.

Even a super player like Tina can wander around the newbie village, so the idea of ​​restrictions is utter nonsense.

"It's highly unlikely that these two are deliberately lying and giving me false information. They don't know that I possess an intelligence-detecting super-A gadget."

After analyzing the situation in his mind, Fan Xiao quickly made a judgment—some major event must have happened somewhere he was unaware of.

This was a place that needed attention, and he silently noted it down.

"It seems that if I want the Whale Fall members to awaken their psionic abilities, I'll have to go through some trouble and rob them. Sheng Zi... I'll just store my goods with you for a while."

After making the decision, Fan Xiao connected with Fairy Tale Town and, under the cover of illusion, took out the Badge of Justice to contact Lu Baizhi, giving her the order to summon the Whale Fall members.

After putting away the badge, he did not immediately return to Fairy Tale Town.

There's still one thing left to do—rescue.

Xing Tong and Xiao Sheng, who helped him infiltrate, were not inside the research institute.

To prevent any accidents, he had previously left his own flesh and blood on the two of them as a positioning device. Through his psychic senses, he detected that the two were currently some distance away from Satellite City 44.

If nothing unexpected happens, he should have evacuated with the researchers at the institute.

Potential test subjects are hard to find, and the fact that the two of them were taken away was within his expectations.

Fan Xiao activated the "Flesh and Blood Ancestor" and remotely transmitted the command.

at the same time.

Xingyi City North District.

On the way to Satellite City 24, a dozen armored vehicles were moving forward in an orderly line.

Xing Tong and Xiao Sheng were in the 7th armored vehicle, guarded by a team of C-level players dispatched by Xingyi City.

At one moment, a few strands of hair on Xing Tong and Xiao Sheng's heads suddenly began to shake and wriggle.

They detached from the two people's heads, rapidly expanded, and large amounts of flesh and blood surged out, transforming into monsters that pounced on the players inside the car.

Amidst the chaos inside the car, a command reached Xing Tong and Xiao Sheng's ears: "Begin the ceremony."

Xiao Sheng stood there, stunned and at a loss.

Xing Tong was the first to react, slapping Xiao Sheng across the face to bring him back to his senses, and quickly said, "The ceremony! Hurry!"

After she finished speaking, she took out a black paper doll shaped like a human figure.

Xiao Sheng then realized what was happening. The two of them grabbed the paper, tore it in half, and silently recited a spell.

The next second, the writhing flesh inside the car suddenly disappeared, and all members of the C-level player team who were fighting stopped moving and froze in place.

Time seemed to stand still for them; their bodies remained motionless, and their expressions froze.

Soon, Xing Tong and Xiao Sheng's figures were swallowed up by the distorted light and disappeared without a trace.

The C-level player team members inside the car started moving again.

They returned to their original seats as if they hadn't noticed anything unusual.

The armored vehicle continued its journey as usual, the atmosphere inside eerily quiet.
