Worldwide Awakening: My Soul Kinds Are Lost

Chapter 803 - 803: The Weakness of the Speedster

"Don't say, charm really is a handy thing..."Wang Linchi quipped, and as his superpower developed bit by bit, he began to undergo some subtle changes.

He estimated that his superpower should be transcendent charm, and he had little doubt about it since charm was his main attribute.

It's a bit peculiar, but it doesn't prevent him from using it.

Five days ago, he noticed someone was watching him. This was a unique sixth sense formed as his transcendent charm improved, by interfering with himself.

The observation times were very fixed, happening once every day.

With each observation, someone would talk with him and ask some questions, and Wang Linchi would answer very honestly.

Obviously, the other party intended to understand his psychological state, thoughts, and so on, but he wasn't worried about exposing such things.

His approach was not to calm the restless heart and tame the wild horse, but rather to let the restless heart and wild horses run rampant, so even if they managed to grasp his psyche and thoughts, it wouldn't have much impact on him.

Trying to morally bind someone without morals is just like taking off your pants to fart.

Besides the unique sixth sense, Wang Linchi also unearthed the ability to interfere with himself, but it wasn't thought power, just ordinary spiritual power.

Thus, he was considered a metahuman with dual superpowers.

Transcendent charm was the foundation, spiritual power was the enhancement, and other abilities like sixth sense, psychological countermeasures, psychological suggestions, etc., were all unique abilities extended from the foundation and enhancement.

Clang clang clang ~ Clang ~

The wall echoed with a distinct knocking sound of three long one short.

A smirk appeared on Wang Linchi's lips.

If you dare to have someone profile his psychological state, then don't blame him for countering it.

Each time a psychologist did a psychological profile on him, Wang Linchi would subtly counter and influence them, ultimately causing a psychologist who studied his psychological state the deepest to suffer from his mental distortion, leading to sleep disorders through psychological influence on central nervous system hormones.

Which is what they call sleepwalking.

Transcendent charm combined with spiritual power can produce a control-like effect, but it's not as effective as mental control or spiritual control, requiring the person being controlled to be the active party to meet Wang Linchi's conditions.

He controlled the other party to come rescue him from this iron cage.

The three long one short knocking sound was the psychological suggestion planted in the other party, indicating his arrival.

Sizzle~

The secret door above opened, and a soft ladder was lowered.

"Goodness, they actually buried me underground, with the exit above." Wang Linchi said as he struggled to climb out.

At this moment, he was a bit malnourished, as most of his nutrients were used to develop his superpower.

There's no way superpowers can be conjured out of thin air unless he finds the body, but his connection to the body was vague, seemingly intentionally blocked by the body.

The thought of it is a bit surreal, almost like the body is up to something big.

But it shouldn't be out of control.

As he left the iron cage, the entire passageway was filled with a piercing alarm sound and flashing blood-red lights.

The psychologist who helped Wang Linchi escape was also awakened from the sleepwalking because of the alarm sound, looking around in a daze, and then seeing Wang Linchi, his face changed drastically.

"You... you reverse-controlled me!!!" exclaimed the psychologist, naturally realizing he'd been controlled by the other party.

"Yes, and thank you for understanding me so deeply." Wang Linchi said with a smile.

"You won't get away, go back immediately, this is the Strategy Bureau's highest alert." The other party knew he was no match for this special individual in front of him.

Even though the opponent looked rather scrawny.

Wait a minute, scrawny?

He was puzzled, logically it shouldn't be.

Unless...

But before he could finish his thought, Wang Linchi interrupted him.

"Never mind, it's worth trying, and with your help, I think my success rate isn't low." Wang Linchi's superpower didn't have enough capability to effectively interfere with steel.

He severely lacked in both quantity and quality; obtaining spiritual power couldn't immediately reach the atomic level, but needed gradual development.

However, if he interfered with a living person who carried things Wang Linchi needed, it would simplify the interference process immensely, yielding significant power with barely any effort.

Just like a gun firing a bullet, each component releases its energy, ultimately achieving the enemy's demise.

While speaking, Wang Linchi casually placed a hand on the psychologist's shoulder.

"Sorry, but it'll be quick. Just take a deep breath." said Wang Linchi, as a metahuman approached him.

Wang Linchi didn't recognize this person, but the psychologist recognized him as Song Jing, an SSS-level metahuman known for godlike speed, exceeding even the highest image capture devices' capabilities.

That's why he was naturally the first to arrive.

Seeing the psychologist held by Wang Linchi, Song Jing quickly attempted a rescue through his speed.

Yet, the next moment, he lunged at nothing.

"You can keep up with my speed???" Song Jing asked, surprise in his eyes, never having imagined failing before—this was his first failure.

"No." Wang Linchi replied, holding the psychologist's shoulder with a helpless look: "But I can predict your movement beforehand."

"Then, just a tiny, almost insignificant change can..."

Before Wang Linchi finished speaking, he easily tripped Song Jing, causing him to fall face-first onto the ground, attempting to act again while Wang Linchi was speaking.

"Just as I thought, your speed doesn't rely on your physical strength but is attained through spatial friction forming a bubble wrapping around you. Essentially, your speed is still that of an ordinary person, using spatial acceleration with the bubble for high-speed movement." Wang Linchi noted, understanding dawning in his expression.

If the opponent truly relied on physical prowess for speed, no amount of predictive movement would help Wang Linchi evade, moreover, his simple foot extension would've been ineffective, and even if it did trip Song Jing, high-speed Song Jing would've shattered Wang Linchi's leg.

Song Jing got up, clearly no light fall.

Being middle-aged, despite various training and tech support, he inevitably felt some limitations.

"What do you mean?" Song Jing didn't quite grasp Wang Linchi's words, but indeed, there was a protective layer during his runs, making everything appear slow in his eyes.

"Basically, you're actually quite weak." Wang Linchi commented, rubbing his chin.

"Never mind me, kill me and him, something's wrong here!!!" The psychologist's forehead was drenched with cold sweat, aware of his mental issues affecting his body.

To him, it felt like Wang Linchi was using his mind and body to gestate some new entity.

Hearing this, Song Jing was shocked, having the advantage but yet to consider killing.

More importantly, he had no impression of this skeletal prisoner, remembering no such high-security convict existed.

"Don't worry, others are coming; he can't escape." Song Jing suspected the other was tormenting prisoners.

"You're right, you do have home-court advantage, and I lack enough power." Wang Linchi responded, affirming Song Jing's words.

Then, he noticed Wang Linchi's head was steaming, looking a bit amusing to Song Jing.

"Make a move, he's deciphering and breaking your superpower!" The psychologist didn't comprehend why he suddenly understood more, just that his mental perception was amplifying, seeing through Wang Linchi's intentions.

Song Jing laughed at this.

Analyzing and cracking a metahuman's power, what a joke, unless it's a power-copying metahuman, though judging by appearances, this wasn't the case.

After all, copying merely required contact, not deciphering.

"Stop fooling around, careful you don't get burned; anyone locked in the iron prison is a dangerous figure." Another metahuman arrived—Xu Lan of the SSS-level Iron War God—frowning upon seeing the scene.

At a time like this, there's still room for idle chatter, especially with a convict escaping the Strategy Bureau's iron prison.

If anything went wrong, what then?
