Chapter 940: Chapter 766: This Thing Could Trap Xu Shuo!

Yangcheng Security Bureau.

Inside a spacious eting room.

Several people in different uniforms, either sitting or standing, gathered around a row of machines, their faces grim as they stared at the screens.

The footage showed a distorted image of a café.

The machines were also utterly silent, transmitting no sound.

Two technicians were frantically checking the equipnt, trying various approaches, but no matter what they did, they couldn’t identify the issue.

The people seated at the conference table were beginning to grow irritated.

“What the hell are they saying? Damn it, how are you monitoring this?”

“Don’t bla them. This must be so extraordinary technique their kind specializes in. Our current tech simply can’t crack this cryptic interference.”

“What about lip reading? Can’t you decipher the lip movents?”

“The surveillance footage isn’t clear enough…”

“Send soone on the ground to observe!”

“The staff monitoring on-site just now also said they couldn’t make out anything with the naked eye…”

“…”

“…”

“What the hell is Luo Kai up to now!”

No one blad the technicians.

So the bla shifted to the subject of the footage.

The entire eting room was chaotic.

So were ntally agitated by this state of total ignorance, while others remained calm, unsurprised by the strange phenonon.

Yangcheng’s chief, Captain Zheng, sat nearby.

He hadn’t uttered a single word, even finding the leisure to gaze out the window, occasionally flicking his eyes back to the distorted surveillance footage.

This represented the governnt’s most advanced monitoring equipnt.

Yet sohow, it was being impacted by sothing unknown.

The devices not only failed to capture any audio from within.

Even the footage itself was unnervingly warped.

The screens clearly displayed the scene, but when one attempted to study the finer details, they found their focus inexplicably slipping away, unable to recall what they had just seen afterward.

Even long-range observation operators were affected…

Such powers.

Truly belonged to a realm beyond human comprehension.

Once the governnt discovered the existence of “players” with transcendent abilities, it naturally sought to control and study them in hopes of harnessing their power.

And indeed, so players had already been successfully subdued by the officials.

Perhaps it was these victories.

That inflated the governnt’s ambition.

But when certain audacious individuals tried to target that boy from the Luo Family, they suffered an abysmal defeat, so disastrous that senior officials had to step in to contain the fallout.

If not for Luo Kai’s unique background and the Luo Family’s diation, this matter would’ve spiraled out of control.

“Do you know what we call Level 1 and 2 players in our circles?”

Luo Kai sneered back then: “They’re called newbies. Your so-called thods can only bully worthless newbies—but even newbies grow.”

“Those who survive to reach Stage 3 are never simple.”

“Because they haven’t been driven insane by the endless hordes of grotesque monsters, nor broken by the relentless torrent of terrifying scripts—they possess an indomitable spirit that won’t yield to your pathetic tactics.”

“They’ll obsessively cultivate their powers.”

“And you can’t stop their minds from entering those worlds to grow stronger. You have no control over the abilities they keep acquiring. What you’re shackling is nothing but an empty shell.”

“The resentnt you’ve piled onto them.”

“Will eventually return in kind.”

“When that day cos, will you still be able to handle it?”

“Fools.”

No thod exists to block a player’s spiritual consciousness from opening the Player’s Handbook and entering the Script Space.

Which ans no ans can prevent those players you presu to control from continuing to evolve in the real world.

Level 1 and 2 newbies are indeed weak.

But as long as they endure.

They’ll always have infinite opportunities.

The governnt’s goal in detaining players was rely to study their uniqueness; naturally, they wouldn’t kill them outright in the short term. As long as this faint chance remains.

They are bound to erupt one day.

…

Players who are exposed.

Either possess powers too insignificant to evade official detection and thus get caught, or reveal themselves upon realizing the Bureau’s existence.

Back then, many players were targeted.

Luo Kai, thanks to the Luo Family, received relatively lenient treatnt, but other elite players who were ambushed weren’t so fortunate.

And so, after this humiliating lesson.

The officials learned to restrain themselves, if only slightly.

Now, faced with Luo Kai’s deliberate interference.

This group could only swallow their frustration and watch helplessly.

An hour passed.

The disgruntled crowd finally saw Luo Kai reach out to turn off the blatantly conspicuous disruption device on the table. Imdiately after, clear footage and audio erged from the equipnt.

“Then I’ll be off.”

“Not seeing you out.”

On the surveillance screen.

Luo Kai stood up, grabbed his hiking pack, and left the booth first.

He exited the Black Star Cafe, glanced about casually at the entrance, and unmistakably identified the direction of the sky-eye surveillance cara, gesturing toward it.

Then, Luo Kai decisively strode toward a black Range Rover parked nearby.

He opened the door, climbed into the car, and the Range Rover drove away, disappearing from the street.

A little while later.

Xu Shuo, still at the booth, finished his coffee before standing to leave the café. Unlike Luo Kai, he didn’t spare the surveillance above a single glance.

After all, his studio was just across the street.
