The Counterattack of the Villains

Chapter 317 Reasoning About Zhang Jie

The three of them looked at each other calmly and continued walking to their rooms as if nothing had happened.

"Huh? What is this? It didn't exist before."

The Overlord's voice sounded behind several people. Everyone turned around and saw a golden stone tablet floating in the air about five meters above the ground not far from the Lord God's big ball of light.

Everyone walked towards the bottom of the stone monument. When they approached the stone monument at a certain distance, the stone monument suddenly glowed with a faint golden light, and a piece of information poured into everyone's mind.

"When a team appears...or there are three or more humans who have opened the gene lock, this information will automatically appear and will always remain in the main god space."

"As we all know together, when the biological gene lock is opened to the fifth level, which is the final level of the gene lock, the organism will completely evolve into a higher level organism."

"The human world will progress or cause catastrophe as a result, it all depends on this creature's thoughts."

"In order to prevent the collision of more than two teams of high-level creatures, which could lead to the complete extinction of humankind, we have established the following regulations..."

"When three or more humans who unlock the gene lock appear in the team, the team will randomly collide with teams from other continents in the plot world."

"There is no cruelty, no playing, no justice and evil... In the end, only one of every team can survive. If you don't want to die, just surpass yourself and keep evolving!"

This piece of information is obviously incomplete. As soon as the first sentence reaches the key point, the information stops abruptly.

Everyone looked at Li Mu and Chu Xuan.

Chu Xuan also looked at Li Mu and said calmly: "Our previous speculation has come true. The ones who have shown the status of unlocking the gene lock are you, me, Zheng Zha, and Zhao Yingkong."

"In other words, we have met the conditions to participate in team battles. In the next reincarnation, we will collide with other reincarnation teams."

Li Mu frowned, nodded to him, and then said to everyone: "The first message is that in addition to the presence of three or more people in the team who have unlocked the gene lock, there is another condition that will lead to the appearance of this stone tablet.

.”

"So, what happened that caused this stone monument to appear? What is our team missing? In addition, what continent does our team belong to?"

Li Xiaoyi said matter-of-factly: "I don't know the answers to the other questions, but the last question seems obvious. Of course we belong to Asia, whose full name is Asia."

Zhan Lan immediately retorted: "No, Asia is very big and can be subdivided into six regions: East Asia, South Asia, West Asia, North Asia, Central Asia, and Southeast Asia."

"And our team members are almost all Chinese. Even the Overlords only join our team because they are in China."

"Then the 'continent' mentioned on this stone tablet is definitely not divided according to the scope of the seven continents. Otherwise, there should be Bangzi, Neon, Siam, Asan and other Chinese in our team."

After listening to Zhan Lan's words, Li Mu nodded and said: "I agree with Zhan Lan's analysis. Our team will never be called the Asian team."

"As for what it's called specifically, there's no point in making random guesses without any reference information."

"But this is not the focus now. The focus is our team. What is missing?"

Having said this, he looked at Zhang Jie and asked: "Ajie, you are the oldest senior person. Did you learn any relevant information when you entered reincarnation?"

Zhang Jie shook his head and said: "I don't know more than you. The first story world I entered was "Scream", which was only the lowest seven-player difficulty level."

"There were three seniors that time, one had gone through two reincarnations, and the two had only gone through one. They were considered semi-newcomers and quasi-seniors."

"In the world of Scream, because I killed a masked killer, in addition to the 1,000 guaranteed reward points, I also received an additional 500 kill rewards."

"Due to the low difficulty level, this time the plot world is very lucky that no one died, and all the newcomers survived."

"The others are all ordinary people. Only I am a veteran. I am relatively strong, so I am highly valued by senior people."

"I spent 100 reward points to buy the infinite bullet sand eagle, and all the other reward points were used for strengthening. Then I entered the 12-player medium-difficulty world of "Death is Coming."

"This time in the story world, although the difficulty is higher, we were lucky. Only 4 newcomers died and 8 survived."

"And because we completed part of the mission, the harvest that time was pretty good. I got more than 4,000 reward points, which is the biggest harvest yet."

"It's a pity that because there is no side plot, I can't redeem any bloodline or abilities, but the physical strengthening is quite significant."

"The third story world is the 18-person high-difficulty story world "A Nightmare on Elm Street."

"In this plot world, we were almost wiped out. In the end, I was the only one left. I managed to survive through the survival time."

"Before the time ends, I am being torn into pieces by Freddy. If the end time is twenty seconds later, I will be dead."

When he finished speaking, everyone heard his voice trembling. Na'er hugged his waist tightly and comforted him silently.

Zhang Jie took a few deep breaths, gently stroked her hair, and then continued: "The fourth reincarnation is the one where Sister Qin, Zheng Zha and the others came in. You all know what happened after that."

After he finished speaking, Li Mu nodded noncommittally, and the others had no reaction. Only Zhan Lan had a suspicious look in his eyes, and he was even more suspicious of Zhang Jie.

When he was in front of Kayako's house, Zhang Jie accidentally revealed his super mental power.

At that time, Sadako's clone was attacked by concentrated fire, causing her mental power to lose control and attack everyone in a scattered manner. This should be Zhang Jie's instinctive defensive reaction.

Although he restrained his mental power instantly, he was still captured by Zhan Lan.

He obviously has much stronger mental power than her, so why does he hide his strength?

Keep a low profile and bide your time? What’s the reason?

Do you want to pretend to be weak so that you can avoid taking responsibility and risks and survive better?

But he didn't look like that kind of person, and he didn't back down when it was time to fight.

What's more, in such a strong team, why is it necessary to do this?

Wouldn't it be more beneficial to you to show your true level, gain the respect of your teammates, and gain access to resources?

Just like her and Zheng Zha, if they didn't show mental strength and super combat potential, how could they get resources and become the two main players of the team?

Zhan Lan couldn't figure it out for a while, so he kept it in his heart for the time being and waited until he met with Li Mu and Chu Xuan in private before speaking out.

Although she is not stupid, on the contrary, she is relatively smart, but compared with Li Mu and Chu Xuan, the gap is still a bit big.

Not only is there a gap in wisdom, there is also a gap in knowledge.

Seeing that everyone couldn't come up with any explanation, Li Mu had no choice but to say: "Forget it, there is a serious lack of information. Let's not worry about it for now. It's just a matter of soldiers coming to block it, and water coming to cover it up."

"As I said before, our team is very strong, especially after we digest this harvest and Chu Xuan invites Master Bachi back, it can even be said to be ridiculously strong."

"Based on Ajie's previous experience, it is actually difficult for a normal Main God Space team to obtain large rewards and become stronger quickly."

Speaking of this, he spread his hands and said with a smile: "Is our team a normal team? Either mercenaries and veterans, or top killers."

"Even ordinary people have their own specialties and progress at an incredibly fast rate. The most important thing is that they have a wisdom and responsibility beyond ordinary people. Just ask the teams from other states if they are afraid."

"Hahaha……"

When he said this, everyone laughed loudly and looked at Chu Xuan jokingly.

Faced with Li Mu's teasing words, Chu Xuan just adjusted his glasses and said nothing.

In fact, he really wanted to laugh with everyone, and he knew he should laugh, but he just couldn't find the slightest emotion to laugh.

After everyone stopped laughing, Li Muchai continued: "So I don't believe that such a strong team will be weaker than teams from other continents."

"If we can still lose in a team battle, then let's stop messing around and find a comfortable position to lie down!"

After hearing these words, everyone nodded, and everyone was convinced. These words sounded quite encouraging.

Especially the Master Hachiku who is about to join, he is a double A-level existence.

After digesting the harvest this time, Li Mu and the other main players can conservatively estimate to reach A-level strength.

It's not impossible for others to be averagely C-level or even B-level, so there's really nothing to worry about.

At that moment, everyone dispersed, and soon only Zhan Lan and Zhao Yingkong were left in the Main God Square.

After Zhan Lan informed Zhao Yingkong about the situation in the Lord God Space, he also returned to his room.

According to what Zhan Lan told him, Zhao Yingkong held the handle of a room door, constructed his own residence in his mind, and then returned to the room.

The main god's space suddenly became quiet. After a few minutes, the doors of Li Mu and Chu Xuan opened almost at the same time.

Li Mu took Zhang Qin and Chu Xuan to Zhan Lan's room door. When she saw that her door was not closed, she pushed it open and entered.

Zhan Lan's room is a standard apartment-style room. When a few people arrived, she had already filled the coffee table with snacks and fruit snacks.

In the plot world, they didn't sleep all night. Although they didn't feel tired, they were really hungry.

"Here we go, let's have something to eat first and then talk about things!" Zhan Lan greeted several people.

Several people were not polite and swept away the food on the coffee table. Li Mu then patted his belly and said: "After eating and drinking, tell me, what abnormality did you find?"

Zhan Lan asked curiously: "How do you know that I have discovered an abnormality?"

Li Mu smiled and said, "Isn't this obvious? You avoided everyone and called the three of us alone. You must have discovered something unusual about someone in the team."

Chu Xuan said: "If I guess correctly, the person with the abnormality should be Zhang Jie, right?"

Zhan Lan smiled and said: "It saves effort to talk to smart people. It seems that you have also noticed that Zhang Jie has a problem. Why don't you talk about it first."

The two looked at each other, and Chu Xuan said: "You go ahead and say it!"

Li Mu leaned forward slightly, rested his elbows on his thighs, crossed his fingers, and said seriously: "My suspicion of Ajie comes from the strange state of his soul."

"Soul?"

Li Mu nodded and said, "Yes, Zhang Jie's soul is very weird, as if two different souls were forcibly fused and entangled together."

"But this kind of fusion is not as complete as Duo She, but only half of it."

Chu Xuan's eyes flickered and asked: "What does this mean?"

Li Mudao: "This means that Zhang Jie may not be Zhang Jie, or not just Zhang Jie. In addition to his identity as a senior reincarnation person, he may have another identity."

"As for what that level of identity is, I can't guess. What do you think, Chu Xuan?"

A flash of light flashed across Chu Xuan's eyes, and he said: "Originally, I just had some suspicions, which can be regarded as speculations, but now with your words, I can be sure of many things."

Zhan Lan said enthusiastically: "Tell me, what is going on?"

Chu Xuan asked back: "Have you ever played online games?"

Zhang Qin and Zhan Lan shook their heads, but Li Mu smiled and said: "Before becoming a mercenary, I was an experienced online game player."

Chu Xuan said: "Then you should know very well that in any game, novices who have just entered the game will usually have an NPC as a novice guide to guide you to become familiar with the game."

Zhang Qin and Zhan Lan's expressions moved. They seemed to have caught something, with thoughtful expressions on their faces.

Li Mu suddenly said: "Are you saying that what our team lacks is a figure like a novice guide?"

Chu Xuan nodded and said: "Yes, no matter what the purpose of the main god space is, but its operating model, we can regard it as a game."

"Every time we enter the plot world, the act of explaining the rules of the Lord God Space to newcomers is a kind of guide for newbies."

"Then have you ever thought about what happens if a team is wiped out? How can newcomers understand the rules of the Lord God Space when there are no senior members?"

"It is impossible to have no guidance at all, because then the survival rate of newcomers is too low. What the Lord God implants in the minds of newcomers is only the basic information about the Lord God's space."

"But with the information about the current world, how to get through the plot world, what will be the consequences of changing the plot, and how to understand the missions issued by the Lord God..."

"If you don't know anything about this, then the chances of a new reincarnation surviving are infinitely close to zero."

Zhang Qin's eyes flickered and said: "You mean, Zhang Jie is probably the novice guide arranged by the Lord God?"

Chu Xuan nodded and said: "I am 99% sure, but according to what Li Mu said, the novice guide is only one of his identities."

"He should have another identity, and this identity is probably what our team is really missing."

"It is also the identity that was left blank in the first sentence of information on that stone tablet, but there is insufficient information to guess what it is exactly."

"I can only surmise that once we have that identity, we can know everything we need to know."

"For example, the names of our team and other teams, and there are other functions that we don't know yet."

Zhan Lan said: "Then the question is, why does Zhang Jie hide this information from us? What good does this do to him?"

Zhang Qin frowned and said: "I can feel that although Zhang Jie has hidden some things from us, he has no ill intentions towards us and is sincere in his dealings with us. But why..."

She recalled the scene when she first met Zhang Jie, the lit cigarette, the tacit understanding of life and death, the tables of delicious meals, and Zhang Jie's hearty laughter...

None of this is false, so what kind of difficulties does he have hidden in his heart?
