Chapter 11 Would You Be Friends with a Piece of Bread?
"Please don't misunderstand, we saw your post online and wanted to ask you about it."
Although I don't know what Ye Tian is thinking.
But out of politeness, Liu Su still offered an explanation, not wanting Ye Tian to overthink things.
"I have no misunderstanding."
shook his head.
Ye Tian truly harbored no ill will towards the mysterious investigation team.
In this world, there are always things that require a group of people to shoulder the burden, and the Mysterious Investigation Team is such a place. In fact, the Mysterious Investigation Team has been wiped out several times.
But people still rushed forward one after another.
It's not that they're not afraid of death, but that some things have to be done by someone.
"I haven't had breakfast yet. If there's anything you need to say, let's talk while we eat."
After a night's rest, Ye Tian's mental state had recovered, but the physical exertion had caused his stomach to rumble.
"good..."
Liu Su was about to nod.
The next moment, Ye Tian suddenly disappeared from sight.
At the same time, a voice came from behind them.
"I know a steamed bun shop that's pretty good, let's go together."
"!"
When did you go there?
Not to mention Liu Su, even her two teammates were taken aback.
She turned her head in surprise to look at Ye Tian, who was slowly walking away.
Teleportation?
In reality, it's just a time stop. Pausing something strange requires a considerable expense, but pausing a human of average strength consumes almost nothing.
It's not purely for showing off.
Sometimes, if you don't demonstrate some special methods, no matter how sincere your words are, others will only remain skeptical.
Only by becoming more mysterious and enigmatic can one gain people's trust.
"Team...Captain!"
The two team members swallowed hard and looked at Liu Su simultaneously.
Is it a person or a monster?
"Keep up with him!"
Liu Su didn't waste any words. She had come here simply out of curiosity about how Ye Tian knew about the strange games, and even gave a warning before the strange games arrived.
But now.
Seeing such methods made Liu Su feel that the other party might be hiding some big secret, which was very important to their newly established secret investigation team.
,,,
Inside the deserted steamed bun shop.
Only Ye Tian was wolfing down his food, eating one bun after another.
On the other hand, Liu Su seemed to have eaten before coming, as she clearly didn't have much of an appetite.
"Sorry, I've been using a lot of energy lately, so I'm a little hungry."
We finished the whole basket of steamed buns.
After saying that, Ye Tian called the owner to bring another basket of steamed buns.
"fine."
It's just edible.
The mysterious investigation team is not short of people with big appetites; there are several of them who can eat quite a lot themselves.
Liu Su didn't pay any attention, just shook her head, and instead carefully examined Ye Tian.
"The information says that you grew up in an orphanage and should be around twenty years old this year, but you look a little different from your photos."
I don't know how to say it.
Ye Tian in the photo looks somewhat immature, but in reality, he appears much more mature.
He doesn't look like someone who just turned twenty; he looks more like a thirty-year-old man who has weathered the storms of life.
"There's nothing strange about it."
Knowing what was causing the surprise, Ye Tian spoke casually.
"Because of some things, I lost ten years of my life in the bizarre dungeon."
"..."
He opened his mouth, then fell silent.
Especially seeing Ye Tian's nonchalant expression, it's clear that he's not putting on an act, but genuinely doesn't care.
"Feel sorry!"
"It's nothing. Although I lost ten years of my life, I also got what I wanted."
Ten years of lifespan can be exchanged for one talent enhancement.
I made a profit!
After a new basket of steamed buns was served, Ye Tian started eating them right away.
I didn't dwell too much on the matter of lifespan.
Ye Tian said directly.
"As for what you said about the post, I can only say that it's related to my talent; I know quite a bit about the supernatural."
This explanation was something Ye Tian had thought of in advance.
You can't just say you were reborn, because that would be more likely to be seen as mentally ill.
If you call it talent, then it's easy to explain.
After all, talents come in all shapes and sizes. Ye Tian knows of several people with talents that can predict the future.
"Talent?"
As expected, Liu Su had no doubts.
Because one of my teammates awakened the talent for divination, which allows him to predict good and bad fortune and avoid harm, it doesn't seem strange that other talents would appear.
"Could you elaborate? I'm sorry, but the information you have might be really important to us."
Until now.
Even within the mysterious investigation team, there wasn't a concrete concept of what was strange.
If we can find out from other sources, that would be the best.
"There's nothing I can't say."
These reports were mostly observed by the mysterious investigation team.
"I explained it in the post: weird, cunning, cruel, vicious, and untrustworthy. The fate of becoming a contractor is to become food for the weird."
"Aren't there any exceptions?"
This question wasn't asked by Liu Su, but by one of her teammates.
He looks young.
At this age, one can indeed naively believe that not all evil is bad.
Would you become friends with a piece of bread?
Ye Tian didn't go into too much detail about the eerie horror and cruelty; he simply tilted his head and asked a simple question.
"..."
"Feel sorry!"
I think I asked a really stupid question.
Ye Tian simply shook his head.
In the beginning, everyone had some naive expectations, more or less.
"Don't try to reform the supernatural. Supernatural beings are made up of various negative emotions, including but not limited to resentment, jealousy, and anger. For supernatural beings, human emotions are their perfect food."
"If you find something strange that is unusually friendly to you, don't doubt it, it just wants to eat you in a different way."
"..."
Humans are humans, and the bizarre is the bizarre.
This concept must be disseminated.
Liu Su remained relatively calm; after all, there must be a reason why she was chosen as the team leader.
"I've also read your post. It seems that as long as the rules are followed, the supernatural cannot harm humans. Does that mean the supernatural isn't invincible?"
This is a genuine effort to gather information.
Ye Tian shook his head, making no attempt to hide anything.
"First of all, the rules do restrict the supernatural, but only in low-level instances, and not all supernatural beings are restricted by instances!"
Take, for example, the time mystery.
He didn't first appear in a dungeon.
"We can make five simple classifications for the bizarre: the first is the evil bizarre level, then the fierce bizarre level, the malevolent bizarre level, the catastrophic level, and the nightmare level."
"In reality, once they reach the level of ferocity, the restrictions imposed on them by the dungeon rules become less."
For example, the head chef in the previous Huangquan Hotel instance was extremely eerie and menacing.
The copy rule works for Him, but it is not absolute.
What truly calmed Him down was the time-manipulation technique emanating from Ye Tian.
That thing was a time bomb for Ye Tian, but it was the same for the strange creature.
