Terrible news! My deskmate's first chapter is gone!

Because of the close proximity and Gu Yi's "good guy" persona, Chen Xi was completely unprepared for Gu Yi and fell for his trick immediately.

The stinging pain in her back made Chen Xi instinctively move away to a safe distance, but it seemed to be too late.

Along with the stinging sensation, he seemed to lose all awareness of his extraordinary abilities.

"What did you do?"

Chen Xi forced himself to calm down and said in a deep voice.

"I didn't do anything, I just sealed your identity."

Seal my identity?

No wonder... no wonder Chen Xi suddenly couldn't feel the power of equality within him.

Although the power of extraordinary abilities cannot be seen, to the holder, they are like a part of your body.

You can't see them, but that doesn't prevent you from feeling their presence. But at this moment, they feel like they've been given anesthesia.

"Item number 77, 'The Needle of Waves,' can seal the identity of a fake human or a superhuman."

"I don't know what extraordinary characteristics your second sequence possesses. Theoretically, it should be very strong, but it doesn't matter how strong it is, as long as it's sealed."

At this moment, Gu Yi put away his amiable smile, his face no longer contorted with malice, but instead looked at Chen Xi with an expectant and excited gaze.

"Number 77...The Needle of Waves?"

Chen Xi read the sentence aloud with a puzzled look:

"Can a dummy use containment objects?"

"A pseudo-human naturally cannot use containment devices, but unfortunately, my innate talent is ranked 7th as a 'natural adaptor.'"

Gu Yi's tone when he said this carried a hint of arrogance, as if to say, "I'm laying my cards on the table, I'm not pretending anymore, I'm a billionaire!"

"You superhumans should be quite familiar with the name of this innate talent. As the name suggests, my ability is to use all containment objects."

"Don't be fooled by my superior talent; starting with the innate talent of a Natural Adaptor is incredibly difficult!"

"I didn't even have a containment object at the beginning. In terms of my personal circumstances, I had the hardest start among all the fake humans."

"Several years later, after obtaining the Wave Needle, I finally managed to find and kill a superhuman."

"But to everyone's surprise, he turned out to be a good guy! His supernatural ability remains the same: 'As you wish,' offering no combat power whatsoever!"

"There was no other way but to lie low and develop slowly, so I opened a flower shop. But I didn't expect that being a good person would halve the experience points I gained because I was a fake person."

"Furthermore, it's difficult for good people to gain significant experience points, which has made my progress exceptionally slow. This flower shop has been open for eight years."

Gu Yi gave a self-deprecating smile as he said this:

"It seems I've been playing the role of a good person for too long; my behavior has even started to resemble one, to the point that I'm saying these things to a dying man..."

He paused, then slightly raised his head, looking down at Chen Xi with a condescending gaze:

"Bo Zhuangzhi can use and retrieve it at will, but against an enemy, you need to have twice the psychic power of the opponent."

"You have only recently awakened, while I am already at the peak of Stage I. With your current mental power, you are unable to remove the Wave Needle from your body."

"So... you're finished!"

Chen Xi's expression remained unchanged, but she accepted Gu Yi's words in her heart.

When he was first stabbed, he tried to use his telekinesis to flick the thing away, but as the other party said, the needle was firmly stuck in his body and could not be moved at all.

From Gu Yi's perspective, Chen Xi at this moment is essentially someone who possesses a great deal of mental power but lacks a medium to carry it.

"I see."

Chen Xi remained calm:

"You usually use the Wave-Strengthening Needle to seal your innate talent, probably to avoid the Emperor's scrutiny, right?"

"Today, I needed to use the Wave-Strength Needle to seal my identity, so I lifted it ahead of schedule, but I was discovered by them."

Gu Yi nodded:

"The emperor is indeed powerful; I must deal with him in the most cautious and prudent way."

"No wonder you never chat online."

Chen Xi clenched his fist and stared at his opponent:

"Then why don't you take the Wave-Strengthening Needle from your body and use it on me? Aren't you afraid the Emperor will notice?"

"It's okay if it's just for a little while, but you are the one who should be."

Gu Yi looked at Chen Xi with a slight smile:

"You seem to have some ability to determine whether there are any fake humans nearby."

"Is this your second-order extraordinary trait?"

"This is really a convenient ability. I wonder if I'll be able to detect other extraordinary individuals around me after I acquire it?"

"if you can......"

As Gu Yi spoke, he couldn't help but lick his dry lips, and said excitedly in a somewhat manic voice:

"I have a chance to become the strongest fake human!"

Chen Xi did not deny his idea; sometimes information is more important than strength.

Gu Yi may not have initially intended to unlock the ultimate secrets of the pseudo-human, but after experiencing certain events and encountering himself, his thoughts changed.

Just like most successful people, they start by doing the things in front of them well, rather than having unrealistic ambitions from the beginning.

However, even if Gu Yi gets his wish, he will still fail, since the identity of a farmer does not have the extraordinary characteristics he wants.

The mysterious tennis ball was the real reason he discovered the fake man.

But that's a story for another time. For now, what Chen Xi needs to do is stall for time!

At this moment, he is infusing his mental energy into the mysterious tennis ball!

Even without the identity of a farmer, Chen Xi still has a trump card to play!

From Gu Yi's words, Chen Xi could tell that the identity of a good person was gone!

After all, the flower shop has been open for eight years.

Another identity that can be awakened among the extraordinary individuals has been eliminated.

Chen Xi now has an idea: what if the red ball comes out later, and it happens to select the identity of a good person?

Can it be taken away?

Does this count as liberation?

Although the emperor said that if the identity stolen by the false man was not liberated within the specified time, it would be assimilated after three years, the emperor was unaware of the power of the mysterious tennis ball. Perhaps it could work?

If that doesn't work, then there will be no good people left in this world!

"If that's the case, why didn't you attack me the first time we met?"

Chen Xi asked, indicating that he intended to continue stalling for time as before.

Unfortunately, ideals are often grand, but reality is often harsh.

"It's simple, who knows what your second-order extraordinary trait is?"

"I need you to lower your guard as much as possible. I have no fighting ability other than physical strength, so I can only give myself one chance."

After saying that, Gu Yi, who was standing not far away, immediately rolled up his sleeves:

"It seems to me that you're trying to stall for time."

"Unfortunately, I won't give you that chance!"

"Be my second identity, 'Guai'!"

"Although my stage progress is greater than yours, you are in the overlord sequence, and I can still take over at the same stage."

"Your appearance was perfectly timed! If you had been a week later, I'm afraid I would have already advanced to Stage II!"

The moment Gu Yi finished speaking, he flashed and appeared in front of Chen Xi as if he had teleported.

Whoosh!

A merciless iron fist struck Chen Xi's temple.
