ATDIWR Chapter 86

Chapter 86 Gu Jinsheng Failed to Defend: Two Little Boys in the Midst of Interests!……

Ji An couldn’t help but glance at Gu Jinsheng, who had already stood up from the back row and was walking towards him. For some reason, he felt a slight guilt.

Gu Jinsheng’s face was as dark as water, and the killing intent emanating from his entire person could be felt from a hundred meters away.

Wang Dazhi shivered, feeling uneasy, but thinking of so many people, Gu Jinsheng couldn’t do anything to him, so he quickly calmed down.

Wang Dazhi held the flowers in both hands, knelt on the ground, and looked directly into Ji An’s eyes, “Researcher Ji, I have admired you for a long time. From the spatial storage item, I was impressed by your excellence. It was just that at that time, you were a high and mighty deity, and I was just a clumsy, dirty duck on the ground, not daring to climb up, so I always kept this admiration hidden in my heart.”

For some reason, the feeling of guilt in Ji An’s heart grew stronger and stronger, as if a wife caught cheating by her husband on the spot, wishing she could cover Gu Jinsheng’s ears and eyes so he couldn’t hear or see.

But that was impossible, Gu Jinsheng had already walked over.

Oh, exciting, exciting, more, more!

The Power Users from the Command Center and Research Department, who knew that Gu Jinsheng was pursuing Ji An and had been pursuing him for a long time, and had even almost been buried with Ji An at one point, wished their eyeballs could fly out and stick to a few people to watch the drama.

The only Deputy Commander present today was Kong Zhongcheng. Kong Zhongcheng’s mouth was so wide open he could almost stuff a watermelon in, his eyes full of admiration for Wang Dazhi, just short of sticking “Brother, I support you spiritually” on his forehead.

The two little ones, Little Stone and Little Rose, didn’t know if they understood. Little Rose was blushing, covering her mouth and giggling. Little Stone clenched his fist and indicated to Gu Jinsheng, “Commander Gu Gege, I support you, Ji An Gege must be yours!”

As for Na Boyu, who wished he could move the table home to study, he also woke up from his intoxicated state. He craned his neck, looking left and right, practically wanting to get closer to carefully examine what was different about Wang Dazhi, this ghost who wasn’t afraid of death.

“Later, I saw you on TV single-handedly breaking into the human traffickers’ den to rescue those children. I knew from then on, you are not only my idol, the person I love, but also my hero!” Wang Dazhi spoke with genuine emotion, and at the moving parts, tears even flickered in his eyes, “Later I learned that your ability was Wasted -Waste away means ‘Waste away’ in that battle, you fell from the clouds, and I knew my chance had come.”

Wang Dazhi pushed the roses closer to Ji An, “Researcher Ji, before I decided to confess to you, I had no idea that your ability had recovered. I still thought your ability was Wasted -Waste away means ‘Waste away’. So I am not confessing to you because of your external factors, it is purely because I love you.

If I had known that your ability was still there, perhaps there would not have been this confession today, I do not aspire to climb higher.

My love for you is truly wholehearted, please accept it.”

“Aww, aww, aww…” Someone started it, and the entire training ground began to howl. Ji An quickly scanned around and saw many people from the Command Center and researchers mixed in, shouting chaotically. These people clearly knew that Gu Jinsheng and Ji An were tangled up, and they were joining in the fun, not to make Ji An accept Wang Dazhi, but purely to provoke Gu Jinsheng and watch the drama unfold.

Just as Ji An was about to refuse, Gu Jinsheng let out a cold snort. He didn’t say an extra word, but the single syllable that came out of his nose seemed to carry infinite mockery.

The surrounding jeers seemed to give Wang Dazhi infinite courage. Instead of being frightened by Gu Jinsheng, Wang Dazhi intentionally said loudly, “Commander Gu, what does this mean? I know you are also an admirer of Researcher Ji, but love is free. It is only natural that someone as excellent as Researcher Ji is admired by many people, isn’t it?”

Gu Jinsheng sneered coldly, “That is natural, but what nonsense are you saying!

What do you mean, Xiao An’s ability is Wasted -Waste away means ‘Waste away’, and you dared to pursue him only after you knew he fell from the altar?

Translating this sentence means you thought Xiao An was a Abandoned person -Abandoned person means ‘Abandoned person’, and you are a Abandoned person -Abandoned person means ‘Abandoned person’, so you thought you were worthy of Xiao An!

Also, what do you mean you wouldn’t dare to confess if you had known Xiao An had recovered his ability? That is to say, you knew that you, a big Abandoned person -Abandoned person means ‘Abandoned person’, weren’t worthy of Xiao An!

All in all, after saying so much, you are saying that you think Xiao An’s ability is gone, he is a Abandoned person -Abandoned person means ‘Abandoned person’! And you, this Abandoned person -Abandoned person means ‘Abandoned person’, have a chance!”

KO! Utter defeat!

Gu Jinsheng didn’t even need to use a big move, he solved his love rival in just a few words!

In the end, Wang Dazhi was treating Ji An as a Abandoned person -Abandoned person means ‘Abandoned person’!

Wang Dazhi obviously realized the great impropriety in his words, his forehead was full of sweat, and he hurriedly explained, “No, Researcher Ji, don’t listen to him sowing discord. He is deliberately twisting words. You know I didn’t mean that. I just simply wanted to express that my love for you is very pure, unrelated to interest!”

Gu Jinsheng said leisurely, “Xiao An, all in all, he just thinks you are a Abandoned person -Abandoned person means ‘Abandoned person’!”

Ji An’s forehead was full of black lines. He never knew that Gu Jinsheng was such an eloquent person. Gu Jinsheng had always maintained the persona of someone who spoke little, was cold-hearted and indifferent. Today, he distorted Wang Dazhi’s words in just a few sentences, and it sounded quite reasonable.

“Sorry,” Ji An took a step back and said to Wang Dazhi, “I am not considering personal relationships at the moment.”

Wang Dazhi’s face turned bright red, either from shame at being rejected by Ji An in front of so many people, or from anger at being deliberately twisted by Gu Jinsheng.

“This time is for teaching the trainees. The Command Center pays me for every minute I’m here, and it’s not suitable to discuss my private matters. This is wasting the resources of all the students, so let’s continue with the class,” Ji An said.

However, the crowd who still wanted to watch the drama could only shout that they didn’t care about the money. No, watching for a fee is also acceptable! How often can you see the Commander’s gossip!

But no one dared to say this. Instead, Kong Zhongcheng shook his head at Wang Dazhi in disappointment, “I thought so highly of you before, but the Big Boss didn’t even release his big move, and you were utterly defeated!”

Wang Dazhi was so angry his nose was almost crooked.

Ji An said, “Okay, I see that everyone’s ability training is almost done. Since we are all on the training ground, let’s conduct mental resistance training.”

Ji An acted as if nothing had happened, calmly continuing his lecture.

“Mental resistance to invasion, as the name suggests, is a training method to resist mental invasion.

Some people know, some people don’t, that mental Zombies have also appeared among the Zombies.

The Mental Zombie King has shown characteristics of intelligence, capable of deploying troops and mentally controlling its subordinates. If it continues to develop, it is not ruled out that the Mental Zombie King will reversely mentally invade humans and then disintegrate humanity from within!”

“Is this possible?” The thought alone was terrifying.

Bi Xue asked, “Haven’t Zombies always had no brains?”

Ji An said, “Perhaps our earliest human ancestors were not smart either and evolved little by little. We are evolving, and Zombies are also evolving.

Moreover, the Mental Zombie King is never an exaggeration. We encountered one before, and Deputy Commander Zhou’s leg was broken in that battle.”

Bi Xue covered her mouth, her eyes filled with terror.

Ji An said, “Therefore, resisting mental invasion is a must. We must achieve the greatest results in the shortest time. This is not only to resist our own kind, but also to avoid being controlled by the Zombie King and becoming its puppets, harming family and fellow humans.”

The crowd, who had not taken resisting mental invasion seriously before, suddenly became solemn.

Even if they were not afraid of being controlled by Mental Power Users, they were afraid of being controlled by the Mental Zombie King. Once they became puppets of the Mental Zombie King, they themselves, and all their relatives and friends around them, would become meat on the chopping block.

Ji An was very satisfied to see everyone shift from joking to seriousness. He nodded, “Then, Commander Gu Jinsheng and I will demonstrate first. Everyone else please pay attention, and then you can train one-on-one.”

Everyone nodded.

Ji An stood opposite Gu Jinsheng and said to him, “Later, when I mentally invade you, imagine me as the Mental Zombie King and resist desperately. My mental power is very strong, so I’m not afraid of your resistance. You don’t need to worry about backlash.”

“Okay,” Gu Jinsheng replied.

Ji An said, “Let’s begin.”

Ji An stared into Gu Jinsheng’s eyes. His perfectly round, normal pupils began to slowly contract, then became a vertical oval shape, then contracted further, finally becoming an extremely thin vertical pupil, like a snake’s eye.

This is a unique characteristic of Mental Power Users. When Mental Power Users perform mental invasion or mental control, their eyes turn into vertical pupils like a snake’s.

Countless mental power threads surged out from Ji An’s eyes and drilled into Gu Jinsheng’s pupils.

Gu Jinsheng’s pupils were a deep, profound black, mysterious and dangerous, as if a strange and unpredictable crisis was hidden beneath the calm surface.

This time, when Ji An entered Gu Jinsheng’s brain, he saw the exact same city wall as last time, walls on all four sides, a city wall with no doors or windows.

The only difference was that a golden, shimmering Thunder Dragon was already circling there, waiting on the city wall.

When it saw Ji An, its large red eyes lit up, “An An, An An, you’re here. I knew you were coming, I’ve been waiting for you for a long time.”

Ji An ignored the Thunder Dragon this time and rushed straight in. He wanted to see how far Gu Jinsheng’s mental power could resist if he forcefully intruded.

Ji An rushed in very quickly, not even giving the Thunder Dragon a chance to react, and directly penetrated deep into Gu Jinsheng’s brain’s forbidden zone, attempting to probe the deepest secrets of Gu Jinsheng’s heart.

Ji An thought he would encounter very strong resistance. In reality, there was resistance, but it was not strong at all, like the wind encountered when an airplane takes off. For Ji An, it was not resistance at all.

Ji An didn’t expect to enter so easily. His original intention was not to probe Gu Jinsheng’s privacy. Gu Jinsheng was the Commander of Jing Shi Base after all. His secrets were not just personal secrets, but also secrets of the Base, which Ji An could not pry into.

Just as Ji An was about to withdraw, he suddenly heard a familiar voice of a little boy, still with a child’s tone. He was wearing very old, obviously ill-fitting clothes, his long hair hadn’t been taken care of for a long time, covering half of his eyebrows and eyes. He said, “Are you an orphan too? A child with no home?”

Ji An stood in the pouring rain. The rain hit his body, soaking his clothes, and also wetting that memory. His nose seemed to smell the dampness unique to a rainy day.

Although the boy who was asking the question was covered by his long hair, Ji An knew what a beautiful face was hidden beneath that long hair.

Even though the little boy was still childish and bore the greenness of a child, he was often mistaken for a girl.

The object of the old-clothes little boy’s question was a little boy sitting in front of a supermarket.

This little boy was dressed cleanly and neatly, his hair was meticulously styled, the pair of sneakers he was wearing were the latest custom model of a certain brand, a single pair cost several thousand yuan, and the set of sportswear he was wearing also cost several thousand yuan. As for the watch on the little boy’s wrist, it was a custom model with programs tailored to the customer’s needs, probably worth hundreds of thousands.

Ji An, with his extensive experience now, could recognize these things at a glance.

But that little boy couldn’t tell. How could he, wearing clothes that were so washed they were about to fall apart, recognize the designer brands on the child opposite him?

When he saw the little boy sitting alone in front of the supermarket, he thought the boy was homeless like him, a poor little orphan. But in Ji An’s eyes, that was just a mischievous, rebellious, spoiled, lawless rich young master.

The young master, for the first time, raised his noble head, which exuded wealth everywhere, and glanced at the old-clothes little boy, who was completely different from him and appeared impoverished everywhere.

The poor little boy’s hair was soaked by the rain. The poor little boy happened to brush his hair back at this time, revealing his good-looking face.

The rich young master didn’t answer. His large eyes looked at the poor little boy opposite him, whose gender was indistinguishable, with amazement in his eyes. He didn’t answer the poor little boy’s question, but instead asked in return, “Are you a girl?”

The poor little boy seemed to be asked this question often and was already used to it. He put his wet hair back down, covering his face again, shook his head, and emphasized very seriously, “I am a boy.”

“Oh,” the light in the rich young master’s eyes immediately extinguished, and then he responded with a sound and ignored the poor little boy.

The poor little boy seemed not to have realized the vast difference between him and the rich little master. He squatted down in front of the rich little master, looking at him, and innocently said, “Little brother, if you have nowhere to go, you can come to our place.”

The rich young master’s eyes lit up again. He stood up, dusted off his bottom, and said, “Let’s go, take me there.”

Ji An watched the two little boys, belonging to completely different worlds, walk one after another. He watched them arrive at the entrance of a dilapidated and somewhat dirty orphanage, watched the rich young master frown slightly in dissatisfaction, and watched the poor little boy proudly say, “This is my home!”

Ji An closed his eyes, a tear slid down his face, and quickly mixed with the rain, making it impossible to tell if it was a tear or rain.

Ji An almost didn’t need to see what happened next. He knew that the poor little boy was tricked by the rich young master into returning to the orphanage to get his only two old clothes. Then the rich young master changed into the ragged clothes and threw his designer clothes into a trash can on the roadside. And the expensive watch on his wrist was also smashed to pieces by him.

Then the two walked into the orphanage.

The lie that the rich young master made up was too clumsy to deceive the adult Dean -Dean means ‘Dean’ mother.

On the other side, they were clearly searching frantically. Knowing that the rich young master was safe here, they were no longer in a hurry.

Perhaps it was to teach him a lesson, to let the orphanage keep him for a while, allowing the rich young master to experience the hardships of the orphanage.

They also specifically emphasized not to tell the rich young master’s family where he was staying, asking the orphanage Dean -Dean means ‘Dean’ to pretend to be deceived.

So the rich young master stayed.

At this time, the rich young master was only four years old, and the poor little boy was three and a half.

Then a month-long, or at least a month-long, period of happy time appeared in the poor little boy’s gray childhood, like a beam of light illuminating the little boy’s entire dark childhood.

The rich young master was bossy. He protected the poor little boy and wouldn’t let him be bullied. Anyone who dared to bully him, he would beat them. He took him up trees to steal bird eggs, and took him down to the river to catch fish.

He also told him that when they grew up, they would be together forever and never be separated.

The poor little boy was too young at that time, he understood some things but not completely. He asked innocently and ignorantly, “But Dean -Dean means ‘Dean’ mother said that when we grow up, we will marry the person we like, and then have our own homes and our own children, so we can’t be together.”

The rich young master thought for a few seconds, then as if he had solved a difficult problem, he said, “I’ve thought of it. When that time comes, you marry me, then can’t we be together forever!”

The poor little boy was too young at this time, he didn’t understand anything. He felt that something wasn’t right somewhere, and yet it seemed fine. Finally, he nodded blankly, “Okay.”

However, the day after the rich young master said these words, his parents came.

The poor little boy then learned that the rich young master was not the child of a poor family from the back mountain who was unwanted, but a rich young master with healthy parents.

He didn’t know how a four-year-old child came alone to this poor mountainous area a thousand miles away, a place that ordinary people couldn’t even find.

And the reason for his running away from home was that his parents wanted to send him to a military kindergarten, where the children were all from military families, and the education from a young age was military-style closed management.

The rich young master didn’t want to go, so he ran away. His family originally wanted to keep him in the orphanage to suffer for a few days, so he would sincerely repent. Unexpectedly, the rich young master was having so much fun that he seemed to have truly forgotten that he had a home.

The adults in his family had to go on a mission again after some time, and they had to arrange for the rich young master before they left, so they came to find him.

After that, the rich young master was taken away and never came back to see the poor little boy again.

The poor little boy’s dark childhood only had that one month of brilliance, but it was deeply imprinted in his soul.

It seemed that the poor little boy remembered every word the rich young master said to him during that month, remembering the bright and prosperous outside world he talked about, remembering the development and prosperity in his mouth, and even more so remembering the prosperous future world he envisioned at the age of four!

Ji An abruptly withdrew from the deepest part of Gu Jinsheng’s memory. Ji An, who had withdrawn, lowered his eyes, not looking at Gu Jinsheng’s eyes. His voice showed no emotion, “You didn’t resist me.”

Gu Jinsheng’s deep eyes held anxiety. He glanced at Ji An’s expression and said cautiously, a little flatteringly, “Xiao An, it’s hard for me to resist you.”

Ji An raised his eyes without any emotion, “Again.”

This time, Ji An didn’t hold back. He also forced his way into Gu Jinsheng’s mental domain, ignoring the Thunder Dragon that was already waiting on the city wall.

Ji An saw the little boy again. He didn’t stay and quickly withdrew.

“You still didn’t resist me,” Ji An said, “Try with someone else.”

“Okay,” Gu Jinsheng said.

Gu Jinsheng’s failure to resist Ji An’s mental invasion twice made many people realize the strength of Ji An’s mental power again. Similarly, it also made people subconsciously have the misconception that Gu Jinsheng’s combat strength was strong, but his mental power was weak.

This wasn’t surprising for them to have such a misconception. Non-Mental Power Users generally have weaker mental power. A lower-tier Mental Power User can counter-control a higher-tier ability user; this is the special nature of Mental Power Users’ abilities.

Ji An’s mental power was too strong. It was not suitable for him to invade anyone, so he didn’t invade anyone else but let the Power Users train in pairs.

Wang Dazhi’s eyes flickered from a distance, and then he walked up to Gu Jinsheng and said with a smile, “Commander Gu, why don’t you train with me?”

Gu Jinsheng didn’t even bother to look at him, saying coldly, “Aren’t you a Space-type Power User?”

And mental invasion is an ability attribute unique to Mental Power Users.

Wang Dazhi smiled and said, “Actually, I am a Mental Power User. When I signed up to join, I also participated in the training as a Mental Power User. The reason I ended up in the Space-type class is because I saw Researcher Ji when I came in. You know, I like him, and to get closer to him, I went to the Space-type class.”

Gu Jinsheng finally looked up at Wang Dazhi. He examined him up and down, as if examining a piece of pork to see which part looked acceptable.

Wang Dazhi felt offended. He provocatively squinted at Gu Jinsheng, “I am a Tier 6 Mental Power User, which is the same ability level as you. Speaking of mental invasion, I have the advantage. I wonder if Commander Gu dares to accept this challenge?”

Wang Dazhi’s words were suggestive, and everyone present could hear it. He was indirectly referring to Ji An as well.

Gu Jinsheng glanced at Ji An, who was watching the two of them expressionlessly, and nodded, “Acceptable.”

A hint of delight quickly flashed in Wang Dazhi’s eyes. He almost impatiently launched an attack on Gu Jinsheng.

The mental power threads belonging to Wang Dazhi emerged from his vertical pupils thread by thread, ten times thicker than the mental power Ji An released just now, or even more. Those thick mental power threads looked very difficult to deal with. Everyone stopped and watched the duel between Wang Dazhi and Gu Jinsheng intently.

The crowd only saw Wang Dazhi’s mental power threads drilling into Gu Jinsheng’s pupils. At first, Gu Jinsheng’s eyes were clear, and Wang Dazhi’s expression was difficult. However, as time passed minute by minute. Gu Jinsheng’s pupils finally began to slowly become scattered and eventually lost focus. At this time, a hint of joy and triumph flashed quickly in Wang Dazhi’s vertical pupils.

Everyone’s hearts, however, trembled!

Gu Jinsheng failed to defend.
