Chapter 383 Overestimating one’s own capabilities
“Captain Yan, you don’t need to worry about it. Lan Xin has already been linked to, so you probably can’t link to him.” Ning Xuan said, holding a pink butterfly in her hand and examining it carefully.

When Ning Xuan first met Lan Xin, she noticed that something was wrong with Lan Xin's mental state. At the time, she thought that Lan Xin had been infected with some strange pollutant, but she never expected that someone had secretly tampered with it.

"Even if it has been linked to before, it doesn't matter. I am an SS-level controller, the highest level among controllers. I can overwrite the original link and establish a new one, which will solve the crisis just the same," Yan Hezhen said confidently.

"You want to overwrite Lan Xin's original link channel? Let's not even talk about whether you can do it. Have you asked Lan Xin herself and her master?" Ning Xuan put the pink butterfly into a crystal bottle, stored it in her spatial lock, and took it back to study it slowly.

"What time is it? Stop asking all these questions and get out of the way." Yan Hezhen estimated the time it would take for the medicine to take effect and didn't want to miss the best opportunity to connect. She rushed forward without thinking, placed one hand on Lan Xin's forehead, and activated it with all her might, releasing her spiritual power.

The moment Yan Hezhen's palm touched Lan Xin's burning forehead, a violent mental turbulence surged forth like a tsunami, instantly turning her vision into a blinding blue-white, and filling her ears with a sharp noise similar to the hissing of snakes.

"How could this be?" Yan Hezhen bit her tongue, the taste of blood spreading in her mouth. Her mind felt like it was being torn apart; Lan Xin's mental turbulence was like a hurricane, tearing at her consciousness and almost crushing her sea of ​​consciousness.

Yan Hezhen was trembling all over. This shouldn't be happening. He had been drugged with that secret medicine and guided by the pink butterflies. His mind should be paralyzed at this moment, and he shouldn't be reacting like this automatically.

Yan Hezhen didn't know where the problem lay, but since things had come to this point, there was no turning back. Pale blue energy surged from her palm, forming a rotating array of runes on Lan Xin's forehead. This was the mental anchoring array in the mental linking secret technique. This kind of secret technique consumed a lot of mental energy. After it was used, it would cause mental energy to be depleted for a period of time, or even cause permanent damage to mental energy.

Left with no other choice, Yan Hezhen used the Mental Anchoring Technique, hoping to quickly complete the mental link. Unexpectedly, the pale blue energy collided with a red chain in Lan Xin's sea of ​​consciousness. The chain suddenly turned into flames, and with a "whoosh," the pale blue energy was instantly ignited by the flames, and the rotating runes disappeared instantly.

With a "pfft," Yan Hezhen spat out a mouthful of blood, which flowed from her eyes, nose, ears, and all seven orifices. At the same time, red burn marks suddenly appeared on her face, and those marks continued to spread outwards.

It seemed that invisible and intangible flames were burning Yan Hezhen's body, and in no time, they burned her beyond recognition, making her features unrecognizable.

Yan Hezhen, however, seemed oblivious, standing there blankly without any reaction.

Ning Xuan raised an eyebrow, and a faint red energy floated out from Yan Hezhen's head and returned to Lan Xin's sea of ​​consciousness.

At this moment, Yan Hezhen suddenly let out a shrill scream, clutching her head and shouting, "Ah, there's fire! It's on fire!"

From the moment Yan Hezhen impatiently pressed her palm onto Lan Xin's forehead without explanation to the moment Lan Xin let out a shrill scream, although a lot happened, only half a minute actually passed.

Those present didn't even notice what had happened. Lan Xin stood still without making any move, and no one laid a hand on Yan Hezhen. Yet, Yan Hezhen was bleeding from all seven orifices, and her entire face was burned. "Boss Yan, what happened to you? Didn't you say connecting with Lan Xin would be easy?" Zhang Yu asked anxiously.

"Can't you see that? Captain Yan tried to link up with General Lan, but failed and was backfired." The guard who had been thrown out by Lan Xin had just returned and said with a sneer.

“I was just about to say that General Lan has experienced physical abnormalities in the past due to his excessively high mutation value, but he has never been mentally unstable. However, this Captain Yan, without distinguishing right from wrong, insists that General Lan is mentally unstable and wants to link with him. Hmph, General Lan's mental strength value is over 11, and his alien beast gene level is mythical. Do you think you can link with him? Sure enough, this is a backlash.” An officer looked at Yan Hezhen with a cold face.

This Captain Yan, who usually tries to soothe the mental energy of S-rank warriors, can't even completely cleanse their mental seas of pollution. With such strength, he dares to link with General Lan. He's really overestimating himself.

"No, I clearly drugged you. Where's the drug? My medicinal ingredient, my medicinal ingredient." Yan Hezhen seemed to suddenly remember something, her fingers twitching. After a moment, she looked at Ning Xuan in disbelief, pointing at her with her finger, "You, you, you tampered with my medicinal ingredient. Give me back my butterfly."

Ning Xuan spread her hands innocently, "Captain Yan, you drugged the commander of the army and confessed to it in front of so many people. You are really unscrupulous."

Ning Xuan walked up to Lan Xin, opened her palm, and five strands of spiritual energy precisely pierced into Lan Xin's sea of ​​consciousness. The scales on Lan Xin's forehead faded, her vertical pupils gradually returned to normal, and the scales on her body shrank back into her body.

“I did drug him. Did you think that just because you took my butterfly, I couldn’t do anything to Lan Xin? Let me tell you the truth, this kind of drug doesn’t take effect in a day or two. I’ve been drugging him for two months. Even if the catalyst is gone, the poison is still planted in his body and could erupt at any time.”

"Think about it, he could turn into a madman at any moment. Would you still dare to fight alongside him? Aren't you afraid that he might turn into a monster at any time and kill you all?" Yan Hezhen laughed maniacally.

She had just used a secret technique to connect with Lan Xin, and her mental energy was already exhausted, which was a very unpleasant feeling.

"Your best option is to let me complete the connection. That way, at least he will be under your control and won't threaten your safety," Yan Hezhen said arrogantly.

"Bang." Yan Hezhen was suddenly pierced through the chest by an iron rod, the other end of which was held in Ning Xuan's hand.

With a clear, soft cry, a fiery red divine bird shrouded in flames appeared behind Ning Xuan.

Yan Hezhen looked at the blood gushing from her chest. She could feel her life force draining away. The loss of blood slowed her reaction speed. She stared blankly at Ning Xuan, "You burned my face. Who...who are you?"

"The red chains in Lan Xin's sea of ​​consciousness were left by me. They are the spiritual link channels I established. Didn't you want to cover them up?"
