Invincible from Seeing the BOSS's Health Bar

Chapter 79: Chapter 79: Schrödinger’s Homing (2nd Update)

”Just now, I wasn’t deceiving you.”

”Spirit Shuang Xuyao remodeled your brain; now, as long as you’re close enough to it, as its blood fluctuates in frequency, you can directly hear its voice.”

”How’s that? Interesting, isn’t it?”

”Demons, quite fascinating, huh?”

”Your curse, it’s also really interesting! It’s a type I’ve never seen before!”

The tone carried a strong sense of anticipation.

But upon hearing this, Fang Yu felt a chill in his heart.

A lifesaver? Bullshit!

You damn Spirit Shuang Xuyao, you really deserve to die!

Don’t you know you’ve been thoroughly researched?

And modifying my brain to receive messages, do you think others wouldn’t figure out what information you’re transmitting?

Isn’t this just pushing me into the fire pit!

I originally had a chance to clear my ties with Spirit Shuang Xuyao.

But the moment I arrived, Spirit Shuang Xuyao immediately started brain wave communication with me, what the hell!

I’ll be directly taken down as an accomplice of demons!

Thinking it over, Fang Yu felt that he needed to justify himself at this moment.

But before he could speak, Ding Hui started chuckling.

”Your reaction is so interesting! What’s this? Hesitation? Fear? What else? Excitement?”

Fang Yu turned back in astonishment.

”You...”

Only to see Ding Hui, as if knowing what Fang Yu wanted to ask, smiling and pointing at her head.

”I’ve connected a part of Spirit Shuang Xuyao into my brain. So I can connect to it too.”

”Everything Spirit Shuang Xuyao thinks, I know it all. And the thoughts of those connected by Spirit Shuang Xuyao, I also... know them all.”

”Although saying thoughts, at the moment I can only discern emotions.”

”This is also one of the reasons why I’ve been invited to be an interrogator—Spirit Shuang Xuyao has used that trick on every person that entered that room.”

Oh boy!

Have I been played?

Fang Yu was shocked.

The moment I entered the room and saw Spirit Shuang Xuyao, I had already fallen into their trap.

I was bound to get my brain altered by Spirit Shuang Xuyao and hear its voice.

And because of Spirit Shuang Xuyao, Ding Hui could also indirectly know my emotions.

The situation was under their control from the very beginning.

The only consolation was that Ding Hui had no filter, seemingly ignorant on what a secret is, willing to tell anything to anyone.

But Ding Hui’s mental state doesn’t seem normal either.

Talking about horrific things with such an indifferent tone.

Something like integrating a part of a demon into one’s brain, could a normal person do such a thing?

Complete lunatic!

”Don’t be afraid.”

”This kind of brain change is only temporary.”

”Spirit Shuang Xuyao’s power isn’t that great yet.”

”In half an hour, this change will disappear from your brain.”

”Of course, for me, this change is permanent.”

”Moreover, we’re researching how to strengthen this change.”

Ding Hui seemed talkative and didn’t mind sharing her research outcomes.

Fang Yu’s brow furrowed slightly.

”Strengthen the change? What do you mean?”

”Quite simple, I want to... control demons.”

As she said this, Ding Hui’s face bore a faint smile, giving off an eerily charming feeling in the dimly lit corridor.

”Or maybe, I could control humans. Kikikiki—”

Kikikiki—

Kikikiki—

Ouch!

Stop laughing.

The corridor is so narrow, your laughter echoes all over it, like a scene from a ghost movie.

Fortunately, Fang Yu knew that this person was just mentally abnormal, not completely detached from humanity.

Controlling demons, controlling humans... such grandiose ambitions, feels like the technology tree of this game world is a bit skewed, doesn’t it?

”We’ve arrived.”

Out of the blue, Li Baizhen spoke.

Fang Yu looked ahead, there was a dark room.

Inside the room were a table, three chairs, and a candle burning on the table.

That’s all there was to the room, or all that could be seen.

Apart from the feeble illumination provided by the candle, the surrounding darkness was so complete that one couldn’t see their own hand in front of them, let alone make out the size of the room or if there was anything else inside.

”Come in.”

Li Baizhen urged Fang Yu.

After the three of them entered the room, the door closed.

Bang.

In the entire field of vision, only the table and chairs in front of me remained.

This dark environment provoked a sense of inexplicable fear.

He tried reaching a hand backwards to feel.

Suddenly, his face changed.

The door that had been behind him just moments ago had vanished!

When he reached back, his hand found nothing!

Fang Yu’s eyes widened, and next to him, Ding Hui seemed to sense his emotions and smiled at him.

”Gone, huh.”

Gurgle.

Fang Yu swallowed hard.

”What do you mean?”

Ding Hui just smiled, saying nothing.

Instead, it was Li Baizhen in front who reprimanded.

”Take your seats!”

After Fang Yu felt behind him again for the previously there door and found nothing, he suppressed his thoughts and emotions and walked over to sit down on the chair.

That’s right! Suppress the emotions!

Since Ding Hui can sense my emotions, then I will control my emotions!

The three seated themselves, expressions varied under the dim candlelight.

Fang Yu was nervous but pretended to be calm.

Li Baizhen’s face was serious, all business.

Ding Hui just kept staring at Fang Yu with a smile, as if she was just going through the motions.

She seemed more interested in Fang Yu the person than in the matter at hand.

”Shall we begin?”

Ding Hui suddenly spoke up.

Fang Yu was taken aback, about to nod, but then Ding Hui suddenly spoke again.

”Alright, as you wish.”

Her weird behavior left Fang Yu somewhat baffled.

But in an instant, he sharply realized something and fiercely looked around.

Health bars! Any health bars?

None...

No one’s around...

Then who is she talking to?

”Let’s begin formally then.”

This time it was Li Baizhen who spoke.

He placed his hands in front of himself on the table, supporting his chin, and asked.

”First question.”

”Are you a demon?”

A straightforward pitch??

Fang Yu looked at Ding Hui, who just squinted and smiled at him.

”...No.”

Whoosh—

Suddenly, the candlelight in front of him turned a blood red color!

The blood-red hue enveloped the surroundings, startling Fang Yu.

Fuck!

What’s happening?

A lie detector?

I’m really human, goddamnit!!

Fang Yu looked at Li Baizhen in panic, terrified that he might suddenly lash out with a Sword and chop off a head.

Even though he wouldn’t die, being identified as a demon meant no hope of leaving alive; his character would be ruined.

For a moment, Fang Yu’s thoughts were tumultuous, but the two people in front of him remained unbothered.

Li Baizhen simply looked at Ding Hui.

Feeling his gaze, she smiled back at him and nodded slightly.

What does that mean? What does that mean?

This silent exchange left Fang Yu completely confused.

Just then, the candlelight returned to its ordinary dim yellow as if everything went back to calm.

Li Baizhen spoke up again at this time.

”Second question. Do you know Shuang Xuyao?”

”I don’t!”

Red light, filling the room.

Ding Hui, still smiling.

Fang Yu: ...

Why does it feel like I’m about to be shipped off.
