Chapter 760: Telepathy

Meng Chao was slightly startled by the cold voice that sounded like a scalpel.

Meng Chao said, “Sister Ya, are you crazy or conscious? Your acting’s too solid. When you hugged me just now, you didn’t even give me any hints!”

“Nonsense, of course I’m conscious. The hug itself was the biggest hint.”

Lu Siya curled her lips. “If it weren’t for the fact that something was fishy, would you have ever seen me hug you so gently?”

Meng Chao thought for a moment and had to admit it, “Alright, I was too slow. You gave me the biggest hint the second you saw me.

“Speaking of which, I have the same question. How do I know that you’re the real Lu Siya and not a beast that’s good at disguising as a human being? Maybe you’re just a ‘virus’ that’s implanted in my cerebral cortex to disrupt my visual nerves and make me hallucinate?”

Meng Chao’s voice turned cold and sharp too.

The corner of Lu Siya’s lips curled up. “It seems that you suspect that everything in front of you is not real, including me?”

Meng Chao pondered for a moment and shook his head slowly. “I don’t think that everything in front of me is fake, but there are definitely elements of falsehood and hallucination. It should be known that 99% of the best lies are the truth, and the best hallucinations should be made up of 99% reality.

“Perhaps, the entire Peach Blossom Town is real, except for you. You could have been formed in my retina. What if the last and most critical 1% is fake?

“It seems that we have to figure out a way to prove that we are the real Meng Chao and Lu Siya before we can have a deeper conversation.”

Lu Siya was not angry at Meng Chao’s suspicion. Instead, she looked appreciative and said, “I have an idea. Let’s ask each other three questions that involve three secrets that only we know. What do you think?”

“Alright.”

Meng Chao thought for a moment before adding, “The questions and answers should be as short as possible. It’s similar to a riddle. Unless it’s the real Meng Chao and Lu Siya, others would not even know what the question is. Furthermore, these questions should not involve the core secrets of Dragon City, such as the transcendental tower and the Archean ruins. It’s to prevent the walls from having ears and allowing the monster mainframe to take advantage of them.

“If we can answer such a riddle, there are only two possibilities.

“First, the people standing opposite each other are indeed the best partners who can communicate telepathically, and they are not imposters pretending to be beasts.

“Second, the monster mainframe can read our thoughts and retrieve the corresponding answers. If that is the case, we don’t have to waste our efforts to crack the situation in Peach Blossom Town, because all our thoughts and actions are under the control of the monster mainframe

“That’s right.”

Lu Siya bluntly said, “If the monster’s mainframe can read our minds at will, there’s no need for us to spend so much effort to maintain the situation in Peach Blossom Town. We just have to devour every human brain it controls.”.

“Three questions. Shall I go first?”

Since it was a riddle, the questions were the answers, and it didn’t make any difference who came first. Meng Chao nodded and said, “Sure, Sister Ya. Ask away!”

“The first question, A’Ji,” Lu Siya said quickly.

At first glance, the word “A’Ji” did not make any sense, so it was not a problem at all.

Even if the monster brain had a large amount of information about dragon city and knew everything about Meng Chao and Lu Siya, even if it knew that Meng Chao had met a young leper named “A’Ji” during the Lair battle, it would still be impossible for it to know… what was Lu Siya’s real question.

Only Meng Chao could answer without hesitation, “Jin Wanhao!”

That’s right, the leper, A’Ji was the new personality of “Underground Emperor” Jin Wanhao after he returned to his youth.

This secret was only known to Meng Chao, Lu Siya, and A’Ji himself.

The first password was a match.

“The second question, it’s my turn.”

Meng Chao stared at Lu Siya and said, “At the bottom of the raging waves mountain, why did Qin Hu escape?”

Lu Siya thought for two seconds, raised her eyebrows, and said, “Beauty stitch!”

At first glance, this was an even stranger answer than “Jin Wanhao.”

However, Meng Chao immediately understood what she meant.

When he, Lu Siya, and Qin Hu encountered the Red Radiance Jade tide at the bottom of the raging waves mountain, there were two crevices in front of them.

The first crevice led straight to the ground, but it was zigzagging and complicated. It would take them more than twenty hours to climb to the ground.

If they had really chosen the escape route, they would have been burnt to ashes by the Red Radiance Jade tide before they had even covered one-third of the way.

The second crevice seemed to be a dead end, but it led straight to a mine where a lot of Blue Origin Crystals were stored.

It was exactly through this crevice that they had been able to resist the assault of the crimson brilliance jade tide by relying on the surging spirit energy of the Blue Origin Crystals. They had even benefited from the disaster by absorbing the spirit energy of two completely opposite natures into their bodies and integrating them, it had laid a solid foundation for breaking through the heavenly state.

Whether it was in his previous life or in this life, the crevice leading to the Blue Origin Crystals was Qin Hu’s choice.

Qin Hu was a veteran hunter and knew nothing about rock formation exploration and underground survival.

As a prospector and a sensitive person, Lu Siya chose another crevice that led straight to the ground.

It was Meng Chao who, based on his memories from his previous life, unconditionally trusted Qin Hu and allowed them to escape.

After the incident, when the two of them asked Qin Hu why he subconsciously chose this crevice, Qin Hu gave an answer that was neither funny nor funny.

The reason was, he felt that this crevice that led straight to the Blue Origin Crystals was well-proportioned and had exquisite curves, outlining the silhouette of a beauty lying on her side.

Similarly, only Meng Chao, Lu Siya, and Qin Hu knew about this.

Since it was not an important matter, and it would be a little embarrassing if it was revealed, Qin Hu could not tell this secret to anyone.

Even if the monster mastermind found out about Jin Wanhao’s biggest golden millennium secret through some incredible means…

It was impossible for it to know that Qin Hu was about to die and the random thoughts that popped up in its mind.

Therefore, these two riddles alone were enough to prove each other’s identity.

Just to be safe, Meng Chao asked Lu Siya to throw out a third question.

Lu Siya pondered for a moment and narrowed her eyes. She stared at Meng Chao and said coldly, “Do you still remember the last time we met before we left?”

Meng Chao contemplated for a short while and said, “The time when I came to visit you with a gift in the Lair Reconstruction Committee’s office?”

“That’s right, that was the time.”

Lu Siya enunciated each word carefully. “One last question. Listen carefully. If you were the real Meng Chao, you would know why I was angry that time!”

Meng Chao was stunned.

He widened his eyes and pondered for a long time, but his eyes were still blank.

“I, I don’t know!”

He scratched his head and said, “Wait, Sister Ya, were you angry that time?”

Hearing this, Lu Siya finally let out a long sigh of relief and completely relaxed. “Your answer was correct. It seems that you are indeed the real Meng Chao.”

“Ah?”

Meng Chao was at a loss. “That’s the correct answer? But I still don’t know why you were angry that day!”

“That’s right, because I wasn’t angry at all.”

Lu Siya smiled coldly, “You were so busy cultivating with Battle God Lei Zongchao that you even took time out of your busy schedule to visit me. You even prepared a gift for me and the kind-hearted Ms. Mulian, who saved thousands of citizens. It turned out to be the gene medicine and high-energy nutrient solution that you personally selected.

“You must know that the current Su Mulian is the goddess that countless citizens of Dragon City regard as pure and flawless, the one who saves the suffering and saves the suffering. I actually enjoyed the same treatment as the goddess when I was with you. Even half of the gene reagents and high-energy nutrient fluids were not less than hers. This is simply too touching. I was overjoyed. How could I possibly be angry?

“Therefore, ‘I’m not angry’ is the correct answer. Congratulations!”

“Alright. Now, I can confirm with 100% that you are the real Lu Siya.”

Meng Chao moistened his dry throat with his saliva and said, “You said that you were not angry, but for some reason, I feel that you are still a little angry.

“You said that you congratulated me for passing the test, but for some reason, I don’t know why, but I feel that I didn’t pass at all. I even feel that my heart is palpitating.

“Only the real queen bee, Lu Siya, is like this. Even if the vortex is reborn and imitates your appearance perfectly, it’s impossible to replicate such a baffling feeling.

“Speaking of which, Sister Ya, are you angry or not? Have I passed or not

“The details are not important. You can worry about them when you are alive. Right now, the most important thing is to figure out the truth of Peach Blossom Town.”

Lu Siya said, “Our time is limited. We must find a way to stop and destroy the tree of wisdom before the harvest ceremony is over and the tree of wisdom is fully awakened. Next, I will describe what happened after I arrived in the Peach Blossom Town and the bewilderment that I experienced in the shortest possible language. Pay attention and listen carefully. Let’s piece together the truth together!

“Also, don’t whisper to each other so suspiciously, and don’t let your spirit energy leak out of your pores, either. Wear it like transparent armor, and people will know that you are on guard at first glance.

“I suggest that you absorb some hallucinogenic spores and create the illusion that you are gradually going crazy. Just like the townspeople around you, it will be easier for you to disguise yourself.”

Following his advice, Meng Chao released some of the pores that were far away from his core organs and allowed a small amount of the hallucinogenic spores to invade his body. Then, he forced them to stay in the epidermis and nerve endings with his spirit energy.

His entire body immediately turned red as if he was allergic to alcohol. He was steaming, staggering, and dancing.

“That’s right. That’s it. Don’t stop. Keep dancing.”

Lu Siya danced with him and said quickly under the cover of the colorful feathers, “That day, I led the entire special search group, Team Nine to the edge of the sinkhole. We were divided into three groups and were about to explore the sinkhole.

“All of a sudden, all the communication and data links were cut off. But in the jungle behind us, there was an overwhelming beast tide…”
