âYou can choose for yourself.â After saying that, Lin Bai quietly waited for Xu Zhengfei to make his choice.
He didnât say that on purpose to scare Xu Zhengfei.
If Xu Zhengfei didnât trust him, then he would really do what he said. He would leave immediately and not interfere with what would happen next.
Although the system had given Lin Bai a special ability, it hoped that he could use it to prevent some bad things from happening.
However, Lin Bai didnât have the habit of bootlicking.
He could use his ability to give some reminders and stop them.
However, if the other party didnât appreciate his help, Lin Bai would never rush to beg for his acceptance.
In the room, Xu Zhengfei was in a battle of wits.
On one hand, he felt that what Lin Bai said was very reasonable.
On the other hand, he was indeed frightened by the cruel rules of the Hunter game.
During this period of time, although he had never taken the initiative to snatch other peopleâs superpowers, he was extremely afraid looking at the increasing number of deaths in the Hunter game app every day.
Every day, he lived in fear, afraid that in the next second, he would become a death figure in the app.
This fear was almost driving him crazy. âForget it. Instead of living in fear, why donât we give it a try?â
Xu Zhengfei finally made up his mind. He gritted his teeth and opened the door.
Lin Bai smiled and said to him, âCongratulations. You made the right decision.â
Xu Zhengfei carefully took a few steps back and distanced himself from Lin Bai.
He asked, âAre you really here to help me? Then how are you going to help me?â Lin Bai walked into the room and closed the door. Then, he calmly replied, âItâs very simple. Give me your superpower.â
âThis way, you wonât be a player anymore. You wonât have to worry about other players sneaking up on you.â
Xu Zhengfei became more and more vigilant. He even assumed the posture of being ready to attack at any time.
âDonât think that I donât know! If I give you my superpower, Iâll be eliminated! All eliminated players will die!â
Lin Bai said calmly, âYes, youâre right. The rules of the game are that only one person can live.Except for the players who advance to the next level, everyone else will be killed.â âThen you can choose to fight for it and try your best to become the one who advances to the next level.Do you think you can do it?â
There was no hint of mockery, just a simple question.
The imposing manner that Xu Zhengfei had forcefully endured was instantly crushed by this question.
How could he not have thought of becoming the person who advanced to victory?
However, he knew that he simply could not do
He did not have the courage to kill. Nor did he have the confidence that he would not be killed by others.
All he could do was to try his best to hide himself and try his best to live as long as he could.
However, he really couldnât bear the mental torture of living in fear every second.
âIf⦠I mean if, I give my superpower to you, can you not kill me?â.
Xu Zhengfei asked carefully. Lin Bai nodded. âOf course.â
Xu Zhengfei asked again, âThen what do you have to make me believe that youâre not lying?â Lin Bai smiled and asked in return, âSince you know that you donât have the ability to live to the end and become a player, sooner or later, your superpower will be snatched away by others. What makes you so sure that others will be more lenient than me?â
Xu Zhengfei was rendered speechless by the question.
Thatâs right. Even if he didnât hand over his superpower to Lin Bai, it was only a matter of time before it was snatched away by other players.
At that time, it might not be as easy to negotiate as it was now.
Compared to other unknown players, Xu Zhengfei was more willing to trust Lin Bai in front of him.
At the very least, Lin Bai seemed to be quite kind. Moreover, up until now, he had not shown any signs of aggression towards him.
âAlright then. Iâm willing to give my superpower to you.â
Xu Zhengfei finally made a decision.
When he said that, he even felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted off his shoulders.
The nightmare that had been troubling him for so long was finally coming to an end.
He couldnât help but say from the bottom of his heart,âThank you.â
Lin Bai silently held his hand, and the pendant on his wrist touched Lin Zhengfeiâs body.
In a flash of white light, Lin Bai heard the system Notification sound in his mind.
[Ding, the host has successfully absorbed the ability âsensingâ. Do you want to convert this ability into system energy?] Lin Bai did not have the chance to answer the systemâs question. Instead, he asked Xu Zhengfei,âWhat is your ability?â
Xu Zhengfei answered honestly, âIf I activate my ability, I can sense the location of all the players in the country. But correspondingly, they can also sense me.â
âIf I donât activate this superpower, others wonât be able to sense me. Even if they see me face to face, they wonât realize that Iâm a player.â
Lin Bai thought to himself, âNo wonder I didnât sense anything when I saw him just now. So thatâs the reason.â
The rules of the game mentioned that players could sense each other, so as long as they shortened the distance to a certain extent, they could sense each otherâs existence.
Xu Zhengfeiâs superpower was basically like a super powerful locator with a shield.
âHave you used this superpower before?â Lin Bai asked him.
Xu Zhengfei nodded. âYes.â
âWhen I was first selected, I used it out of curiosity. Then, the nearby players immediately sensed it. I was so scared that I turned off my superpower to escape. I almost died at that time.â
âAfter that, I never dared to use it again. I kept it off, thinking that I could live a day at a time.â
Lin Bai asked, âThen, how did you feel when you used it before?â
Xu Zhengfei recalled carefully and answered, âHow should I put it⦠itâs hard to describe that feeling. It was as if the entire map of the Dragon Kingdom was imprinted in my mind all of a sudden.Then, I can clearly sense which provinces and regions have players.â
âIf I focus all my attention on a certain express delivery, I can even sense it more accurately. Even if the other party stays on that street, I can accurately locate him.â
Lin Bai nodded. âThatâs good.â
Then, Lin Bai said to the system with his mind:
âNo conversion, I want to keep this ability.â
[Ding, Congratulations to the host for obtaining the ability âsensingâ.] Xu Zhengfei asked carefully,âIâve told you everything I know, and Iâve given my ability to you. I should be safe in the future, right?â
âUh, what I mean is, am I safe for the time being before I decide to become a player?â
Lin Bai said, âIâm sorry to tell you, not necessarily.â âIf my speculation is correct, the creator behind the scenes has been continuously killing those players who have lost their abilities.â
