Chapter 159: Mind Hacker
Chapter 159: Mind Hacker
The door opened.
Standing naked behind it was Elorin, her voluptuous figure on full display as she asked with a furrowed brow, "Who are you?"
Ji Xinghuo said nothing, merely looking her up and down.
Elorin stood at about 1.65 meters tall, her skin fair and smooth, with curves that were simply breathtaking. Her facial features were exquisite, exuding a wild and unrestrained allure, yet also possessing a pure and sacred quality. This mix of contradictory auras created a unique charm. She leaned casually against the door, letting him look his fill, her arms crossed beneath her chest, every movement and gesture filled with blatant sexual suggestion.
On her cheeks were two circuit-like patterns, extending from the corners of her eyes to the back of her neck, adding a touch of postmodern beauty.
At first glance, Elorin's body appeared no different from that of a regular person.
However, to Ji Xinghuo's magnetic field perception, her body exhibited strong electrical reactions. Her mechanical prosthetics were top-notch, not only in terms of functionality but also in their seamless disguise.
An Electron Succubus...
Ji Xinghuo suddenly recalled a term that had been circulating on the internet for over two centuries.
"I heard you're a well-known middleman in the Saint Fibozone. I'm here for some information," Ji Xinghuo stated his purpose.
A middleman served as both a task broker and an information peddler.
"Oh?" Elorin's eyebrow arched. "So, business has come knocking at my door."
She stepped out from the room and sat down on the sofa in the living room, crossing her legs. She picked up a cigarette from the coffee table, placed it between her lips, and lit it.
"Ahh..."
Exhaling a puff of white smoke, Elorin leaned back against the sofa, a relaxed expression on her face. "Now, what is it that you want to know?"
Ji Xinghuo gently tapped his smart glasses, projecting a photo of Shen Yucheng.
"Where is this person?"
Elorin's expression froze for a moment before she replied, "He's my client, and I cannot divulge any information about him. Moreover, I don't know his whereabouts."
In a flat voice, Ji Xinghuo asked, "Why can't you tell me?"
"There's no why." Elorin's eyes narrowed slightly. "This is your first time in the City of Immortals, isn't it? Young man, the rules here are different from anywhere else in the world. Now that you're here, you'll have to abide by our rules. If a middleman betrays a client, my reputation will be ruined, and I won't be able to continue in this line of work."
"That's for you to worry about," Ji Xinghuo remained unmoved. "I want information about this person, so name your price."
Elorin glared at Ji Xinghuo for a few seconds before suddenly asking, "This isn't your real appearance, is it?"
Ji Xinghuo remained silent.
She stood up and circled him, inhaling his scent. "I can tell without even seeing your true face that you must be a handsome man. Your physique is excellent, and although there's the scent of another woman on you, the interaction wasn't deep. Are you a virgin?"
Ji Xinghuo still did not respond.
"Hehehe..." Elorin chuckled, a smile spreading across her face. "Young man, have you ever experienced the pleasures of a woman?"
She positioned herself in front of Ji Xinghuo, placing her hand on his chest and pressing herself gently against him. Her breath was like orchids as she whispered in his ear, "If you spend the night with me, I'll tell you what you want to know. I promise you'll experience a wonderful feeling that you'll never forget for the rest of your life."
A sultry atmosphere permeated the room.
Elorin's voice carried a hidden yet powerful mental force. Even just hearing her voice, most men with weak willpower would fall under her spell and kneel at her feet.
Even a determined mutant would find it difficult to refuse her, let alone take any hostile action.
For she was a Mind Hacker.
This profession excelled in manipulating hearts and minds, controlling people's spirits.
The core ability of a Mind Hacker was 'Telepathy', allowing them to sense others' emotional changes. They possessed lightning-fast thoughts and keen insight. Combined with the abilities of 'Empathy', 'Mental Interference', 'Hallucination', and 'Hypnosis', they could control their targets without any physical confrontation.
The human mind held infinite potential—it was both complex and simple. Compared to other mutants, a Mind Hacker could sometimes be the most terrifying opponent.
A smile appeared on Elorin's face.
"You're filthy," Ji Xinghuo finally spoke, his voice devoid of emotion. "Please take your hand away, or I won't be able to resist cutting off your hand."
Just thinking about the things her hand had touched made him feel disgusted.
"You're asking for death!"
Elorin's expression turned rigid, and then she flew into a rage. Her arm split open, revealing a modified bone from which a sharp knife extended, stabbing towards Ji Xinghuo's chest.
At the same time, she fixed her eyes on Ji Xinghuo's head and released a mental scream.
Clang!
A metallic clang rang out as Elorin realized her knife seemed to have struck an iron plate. She then noticed that Ji Xinghuo's skin was covered in hard, blue-gold scales. Her mental scream had no effect, and Ji Xinghuo stared back at her with a cold smile.
Boom...
Ji Xinghuo punched Elorin in the chest, the force of the blast sending her flying. She crashed into the wall, her body paralyzed by electricity, a charred dent in her chest causing her pain.
Over a dozen men rushed out of the adjacent room, stark naked and wielding various weapons and firearms.
Ji Xinghuo stood still, glancing at them.
Electromagnetic Pulse!
In an instant, the men's bodies convulsed as they fell to the ground, sparks and black smoke rising from their bodies like piles of rotten meat. They were completely helpless.
Mind Hackers were never good at direct confrontations, and Elorin usually relied on her mechanical prosthetics to make up for this shortcoming.
Yet, a single exchange was all it took to render them useless.
Her psychic abilities were ineffective, and her mechanical prosthetics were easily overwhelmed.
"You're out of your league," Ji Xinghuo said as he approached Elorin, having anticipated her tactics beforehand.
Long ago, he had discovered that he was immune to most mental and psychic attacks. The Myriad Phenomena Star Pupil acted as a sturdy shield, safeguarding his will.
Not only was he the bane of machinery and electronic devices, but he was also the bane of Mind Hackers!
In reality, Elorin was quite powerful. As a super-level Mind Hacker with top-notch mechanical prosthetics, she was considered first-rate even among super-humans. Her abilities as a Mind Hacker also granted her additional capabilities beyond combat, earning her a formidable reputation in the City of Immortals, where she was known as the "Black Dream."
However, she was truly weak compared to him.
"I'll tell you anything you want to know," Elorin said, surrendering even before Ji Xinghuo had made any demands.
Ji Xinghuo scoffed, "Aren't you breaking the rules of being a middleman?"
"He who adapts to changing times is a wise man," Elorin suddenly quoted a saying from the Asian Union, then added, "There's only one rule in the City of Immortals, and that's that the strong rule."
As one of the two major powers on Earth, many countries studied the Asian Union language, especially those in the upper class and with mutant abilities.
Mind Hackers had sharper minds than ordinary people, and mastering a language was not difficult for Elorin.
"Not bad," Ji Xinghuo nodded, "You're smarter than Gonzaza."
Hearing Gonzaza's name, a trace of fear flashed across Elorin's face. Clearly, Ji Xinghuo had found her through Gonzaza, and one could only imagine the fate that had befallen Gonzaza.
"If you cooperate, I won't kill you," Ji Xinghuo said.
"Yes," Elorin replied.
Biting back the pain in her chest, she continued, "That person used the pseudonym 'John' and asked me to introduce him to a few channels that could reach the higher-ups of the Giant Consortium. He offered a high price, so I introduced him to a few people, including Gonzaza, and completed the request."
Ji Xinghuo already knew this, "Did he reveal his purpose?"
"No," Elorin shook her head.
She hesitated for a moment before adding, "I'm a Mind Hacker, and from his facial expressions and mood swings, I deduced that he was very eager to meet the higher-ups of the Giant Consortium. I've seen this situation a few times, and it usually means that the person has a precious treasure or important information in hand, but for special reasons, they can't sell it to just anyone. They need to meet the higher-ups of the Giant Consortium to feel secure."
Ji Xinghuo gazed at Elorin quietly, knowing that she had more to say.
Indeed, a hint of pride flashed in Elorin's eyes as she continued, "I was careful at the time and did something to him."
"Hehe," Ji Xinghuo coldly smiled, as her so-called "carefulness" was probably a preparation for double-crossing her client.
"Where is he?"
"He's in the Saint Fibozone, not far from here," Elorin gave an address, less than ten kilometers away.
After providing the information, she anxiously watched Ji Xinghuo, her expression filled with trepidation.
Without sparing her another glance, Ji Xinghuo stepped over the men on the floor and left the room.
It was only after hearing the sound of Ji Xinghuo entering the elevator and descending that Elorin breathed a sigh of relief. She struggled to her feet, glared at the dozen or so men lying on the ground, and cursed, "Useless bunch!"
Then, she bit her lip and quickly got dressed, turning to leave her home without a backward glance, wanting to distance herself from the impending danger.
Ji Xinghuo had already moved away by several hundred meters, sensing Elorin's escape but choosing to ignore it.
Moments later, he arrived at the address Elorin had provided, another towering skyscraper, even taller and larger than the previous one. With over a hundred floors, the massive building housed a population of two to three hundred thousand people. The interior of the tower was intricate and complex, filled with hidden rooms and secret passages, resembling a gigantic ant nest.
The living conditions here were naturally not as luxurious as Elorin's residence. There were no guards at the dozen or so entrances, and anyone could come and go as they pleased.
Ji Xinghuo calmly entered the building and squeezed into an elevator with several other people, ascending to the 39th floor.
Over two thousand people resided on this floor.
The rooms were further divided into smaller spaces, cramped and dimly lit, with flickering lights and the constant hum of human voices. Ji Xinghuo made his way through the foul-smelling corridors, piled high with clutter, and the people he passed by, their faces blank and indifferent to the presence of a stranger.
Soon, Ji Xinghuo stood before a mottled, aged door.
The room beyond was also divided into over ten smaller spaces, but it was quiet, with only a single occupant.
The door was unlocked.
Ji Xinghuo gently pushed it open and stepped inside, encountering a man with his back turned to him. Hearing the sound of the opening door, the man turned around, revealing the face of a middle-aged man—Shen Yucheng.
Unlike before, he was not wearing any disguise, revealing his true appearance.
However, there was no trace of panic on Shen Yucheng's face, only an odd sense of calm. He studied Ji Xinghuo and asked, "What's your code name in the Sword Bureau?"
