Chapter 96 - An experienced hand
Qin Yi didn’t want to force this fella either. When she saw that Xiao Lan made no reply, she didn’t say anything else.
Lin Qing pretended to sigh and looked enviously at Qin Yi, “Tell me, why is the gap between this person and everyone else so wide? Look, Yiyi is already an ability user able to handle three different abilities. And then there’s me! Still nothing!”
Qin Yi couldn’t hide the fact that she wanted to tamper with Gao Qing’s memory. Luckily, she didn’t want to hide it from them anyway and directly told them that she had a variant of the mental ability that could change one’s memories.
Qin Yi felt that even if she didn’t tell them, Yun Huan would have sensed it for sure. Previously, in that supermarket, a herd of zombies chose not to attack them and pounced on a middle-aged woman instead – Yun Huan had definitely noticed this.
Qin Yi initially thought that he would pester her afterward but he didn’t talk about it at all. Since he didn’t ask, she chose not to tell.
Qin Yi knew long ago that Yun Huan was a very observant person. It was better to be a friend than a foe with this sort of person; if you were a foe, life would quickly become very dangerous and terrifying.
Qin Yi placed one hand in her pocket and her thin black hair fell down, covering a bit of the young man’s beautiful eyes, his overly fair skin making the young man seem like a noble prince who had just walked out of a painting. His lips, however, were too pale and those beautiful diamond-shaped lips urged you to bite them, giving them a bit of color.
“It’s not impossible for you to have an ability.”
Qin Yi waved and a few sparkling crystal cores silently appeared in the young man’s hand.
Lin Qing and the others looked over and the first thing they saw wasn’t those sparkling crystal cores, but the young man’s unnaturally beautiful hand.
The young man’s hand was much smaller compared to theirs but it was fair and slender, each finger a work of art.
“These crystal cores can help you get an ability. As long as you can endure it, you will definitely get an ability,” Qin Yi’s clear and pleasant voice interrupted their thoughts.
Yun Huan’s icy-cold eyes weren’t surprised at all and he asked plainly, “What’s the price?”
A shortcut like that definitely came with a price.
Qin Yi chuckled, her phoenix eyes lifting slightly, making her appear even more attractive. “You’re big brother, indeed. This obviously comes with a price and the price is ‘potential’. Everyone has natural potential, even ability users. Those who use crystal cores to awaken their ability will not be able to go far in the future.”
Lin Qing was quite interested, looking at Qin Yi and stating, “I’m curious how you know about all this, Yiyi. Crystal cores, abilities – I feel like you have lived in the apocalypse for a very long time.”
Qin Yi looked at him languidly, her beautiful phoenix eyes clear and showing a hint of a smile, “Guess.”
Lin Qing’s lips twitched – how was he going to guess, he was not god.
But Lin Qing knew that Qin Yi didn’t want to answer. Since she didn’t want to tell, he wouldn’t ask. It wasn’t like he needed to know the answer, he was just curious. After all, this person was very mysterious.
“These crystal cores are useful?” Lin Qing cleverly changed the subject. He picked up a crystal core and observed; it was tiny and resembled a normal crystal.
As for the fact that zombies’ heads contained crystal cores, Qin Yi had already informed Yun Huan and the others of that before. She knew that while staying with a group of demons, it would be impossible that they wouldn’t notice that she was different.
But there were some things that were harder to explain and she didn’t plan on doing that at all. She would just let it go, and as long as she didn’t say anything, their guesses would always remain just that. Guesses.
