Chapter 6.19 – Learning Hypnosis

After coming up with a solution, Xiang Han nodded and admitted, “I was curious about it and learnt some in the past, but it wasn’t very effective. After awakening my ability, I integrated spiritual force and tried again. This time, I felt it was quite effective, but Gu Ming still… Since your spiritual strength is higher, you’ll definitely be better than me if you try. How about it? Do you want to learn?”

Although Xu Yan Ze didn’t know how to use spiritual hinting without his memories as a general in the federation, his spiritual strength still existed. Couldn’t he just teach him?

With this in mind, Xiang Han was eager and felt that this was the safest method to deal the deadliest blow to the female lead.

However, Xu Yan Ze was evidently unhappy. What he was most curious about was the reason for Xiang Han wanting back the ring.

“It’s because…” Xiang Han choked up before finally spitting it out. “I was the one who paid for it, so I don’t want her wearing it. Moreover, don’t you find it strange? Despite hating me so much, she constantly wears the ring I paid for. No matter how much she likes it, it doesn’t make sense because she was originally wearing the female version while the male version was something I conveniently bought along when paying. Now that the female one has been thrown aside while she wears the male one… I feel there’s something suspicious.”

Xu Yan Ze nodded in agreement. “When you brought up the rings, she instinctively withdrew her hand and evaded your gaze. She evidently values the ring and can’t bear to lose it.”

“Right? That’s why we must take it back and see what’s the problem.” Xiang Han nodded and added, “More importantly, where did she get the cure from? I didn’t hear about it in Jiangzhou and she’s not Professor Yang who can create it. And also! I heard that ever since we took back the food and car, Gu Ming and Cheng Hai have been eating fresh food. There aren’t any plant-ability users on their team, so where did they get their food from?”

“That’s strange.” Xu Yan Ze nodded.

“That’s why you need to learn hypnosis from me. We’ll find a chance to snatch the ring back and study it,” Xiang Han summarised.

Xu Yan Ze thought it was funny how much effort Xiang Han was putting in just to steal a ring back. But with those bright eyes filled with eagerness staring at him, he couldn’t refuse. “Alright, teach me.”

Hearing this, Xiang Han was eager to give it a shot. He pulled Xu Yan Ze and walked back. “Okay, let’s start.”

Xu Yan Ze felt helpless and didn’t take it seriously, but after seeing Xiang Han’s seriousness, he could only tackle it genuinely.

Even without his memories, he had always been a fast learner. Once Xiang Han was done explaining, he succeeded within a few tries. Then, someone suffered.

“Little Fool, do you like me?”

“Like.” Xiang Han replied dumbly.

“In that case, kiss me.”

Xiang Han quickly went forward and gave him a ‘muah’.

Xu Yan Ze’s heart skipped, and he immediately pushed Xiang Han down to kiss him thoroughly. After a moment, Xiang Han gasped for air. “Xu Yan Ze! What did you do to me? Scram!”

Xu Yan Ze was in a good mood, feeling that this skill was really useful.

On the other hand, after experiencing those things, the female lead began to grow wary of Xiang Han. She felt that Xiang Han was attempting to hypnotise her into giving him the ring. His goal was obvious, so he must have known. He had probably…been reborn too.

With this possibility, she felt that Xiang Han couldn’t be left alive. But the Wu family’s existence also meant that if she were to try and harm him, there would be a lot of trouble. After thinking about it, she felt that she should still rely on Shen Yan Yu’s power to topple the Wu family.

Coincidentally, the Shen family and General Zhang were at odds with each other.

After learning about her animosity with the Wu family, Shen Yan Yu told her, “It’s not difficult to take their family down. What’s troublesome is the Zhang family behind them. This matter… Father has his own plans and wants me to do it…”

Seeing his hesitation, Gu Ming asked, “Do you need any help?”

Shen Yan Yu nodded before finally saying, “When the time comes, you just need to delay Wu Yue. But he’s a metal user and a very powerful one too. There aren’t many people in the base who can be his opponent… and this matter must be top secret, we can’t cause a commotion…”

Gu Ming frowned before nodding. “I understand. I will tell Cheng Hai about it.”

A few days passed. On the way to a military meeting, General Zhang was bitten by a zombie that sprung out of nowhere. Then, Shen Yan Yu showed up with his men and ordered for him to be quarantined.

Wu Yue just happened to pass by and saw that matters weren’t optimistic, so he brought General Zhang and broke through the encirclement. By the time they reached the CDC, his clothes were soaked in blood. He rushed into the main hall and shouted, “Yang Bing, hurry and bring the antidote!”

Yang Bing brought her subordinates and hurried over. She was instantly stunned upon seeing the situation and only found her voice a few seconds later. “What’s going on? How could this happen?”

“Stop wasting time, where’s the antidote? Hurry! Uncle Zhang has been bitten.” Wu Yue was extremely anxious.

However, Professor Yang was even more anxious than him. “There isn’t any. The CDC was broken into last night and all the antidote is gone. I just called Captain Xu over to draw some blood so it hasn’t been made yet. Also, there won’t be enough time…”

Xiang Han and Xu Yan Ze had just arrived and were stunned to hear this.

Wu Yue’s expression was worse than someone who was about to cry. “How could this happen? Why didn’t you inform me?”

“I already sent someone but General Zhang had a meeting, so you two just missed each other… this was definitely premeditated!” A wave of remorse instantly overcame professor Yang.

Yet, General Zhang was calm. “It’s fine. It probably just means that this was fated… Wu Yue, help me to the military district. Now that I’m still conscious…”

Xiang Han finally walked over, frowning. “Brother, leave Uncle Zhang to me. Go tend to your wounds and mobilise your soldiers. I guess that they’ll be arriving soon.”

“You?”

“Stop wasting time and hurry. Yan Ze, help me lift Uncle Zhang up.”

Just as Xiang Han expected, Shen Yan Yu’s men quickly surrounded the CDC and ordered them to hand General Zhang over.

The female lead hadn’t expected Shen Yan Yu to use such a method, but now that things had progressed to this stage, it was too late to turn back. She could only gnash her teeth and continue.

In the original plot, she had made use of ‘affection’ to lure Wu Yue away, causing General Zhang to be left all alone after being bitten. Moreover, there wasn’t the antidote or Xiang Han, so the plan was a success. However, Shen Yan Yu was destined to be disappointed this time.

After Shen Yan Yu brought his men to break into the CDC, General Zhang suddenly appeared and bellowed, “Officer Shen, what is the meaning of this? Are you intending to rebel? If you have such capabilities, why don’t you go fight some zombies? Though you can’t protect the base, you are quite good at acting like a tyrant here. How uncivilised!”

Shen Yan Yu’s face reddened from the rebuke and anger flashed through his eyes, but he remained calm. “General, it isn’t a small matter to be bitten by a zombie. There are antidotes at the research centre. Since your identity is rather special, we must look at the big picture. You cannot be prejudiced towards it just because of previous misunderstandings.”

“No need for your concern. Laozi has already used an antidote.” General Zhang sneered as he undid the bandages on his arm. He waved the evidently uninfected wound.

Shen Yan Yu’s expression changed and it was at this time that Wu Yue arrived with his men. Seeing that his plan had fallen through, he could only grit his teeth. “It’s good that you’re fine. I was just too anxious and overstepped after seeing you hurt, that’s why I may seem biased. Please forgive me.”

“Forgive your ass.” General Zhang was furious, simply telling Wu Yue, “Tie them all up. I demand an explanation from General Shen.”

Wu Yue’s subordinates all charged in. Since Shen Yan Yu’s men were soldiers, they didn’t resist after hearing General Zhang’s words.

Shen Yan Yu had wanted to resist, but Xu Yan Ze and Wu Yue’s abilities weren’t weak. They didn’t spare any mercy.

After tying him up, General Zhang instructed, “Wu Yue, your injuries aren’t light, you should just rest here. Xiao Xu and Xiao Han, come with me.”

Xu Yan Ze wasn’t interested in joining the commotion, but Xiang Han was, so in the end, he still followed along.

General Shen’s face sank when he saw his son tied up and brought over.

The other generals also exchanged looks after seeing the situation.

General Zhang directly threw his cap onto the table and lifted one foot onto the chair. He roared, “General Shen, kindly explain why a zombie suddenly appeared at the military meeting? And after this old man was bitten, Lord Shen had to appear so coincidentally to stop us from returning to the CDC? He even brought soldiers to surround us. What is the meaning of this? I’m not dead yet!”

When the others heard he had been bitten, they instinctively retreated, causing General Zhang to become more furious. “What are you hiding for? I’ve already been cured.”

General Shen’s expression sank. “Old Zhang, I’m afraid there’s a misunderstanding…”

General Zhang didn’t give him any leeway. “Misunderstanding my fart! If you don’t give me an explanation today, you don’t need to continue as a commanding officer. The base doesn’t need someone who will keep zombies around.”

In an instant, General Shen’s expression turned ugly. However, after learning that a zombie appeared at the meeting venue, all the other generals felt a chill and collectively expressed that this matter had to be investigated.

Without any choice, General Shen could only ask his son deeply. “Lieutenant Shen, you speak. What is going on?”

Shen Yan Yu was caught in a predicament. You were the one who instructed me to do so, what do you want me to say?

Shen Yan Yu couldn’t come up with an excuse, so they had no choice but to investigate. General Zhang was extremely stubborn. He stayed in the conference room, not allowing anyone to leave until the matter had been resolved.

Helpless, General Shen ultimately decided to throw the blame onto the female lead, claiming his son had been seduced by her.

Since the female lead had never exposed the matter of her spring, but only took out a portion of it and claimed that it was an antidote brought over from another base, General Shen didn’t have any hesitations.

Shen Yan Yu was dumbfounded. He wanted to explain, but General Shen didn’t give him an opportunity to do so, directly instructing people to take him away.

In the end, under pressure, Shen Yan Yu was stripped of his title. However, the female lead and her team weren’t easy to deal with. In the apocalypse, there were no death sentences, only chasing one out of the base. It wouldn’t do any good in venting one’s anger. But throwing them into jail was just a waste of food.

In the end, Xiang Han suggested, “It’s best to jail them.” Who knows what tricks she’d pull after being released?

As for Cheng Hai and the other ability users, they were found guilty of plotting to kill the general, stealing, and destroying the antidote. Other than jail, their abilities had to be destroyed. For such a big base, this was still their first time doing so.

Since there were ability users, it wasn’t just Wu Yue’s soldiers who had a part in capturing them, even the melon-eating team had a hand. Cheng Hai and the others were quickly subdued, but the female lead disappeared with a puff.

Everyone was stunned, but Xiang Han said, “You all can take them away first. Leave this to me and Yan Ze.”

After the others left, Xu Yan Ze glanced at him and asked, “You know she’ll appear again?”

“I guessed…there’s a spatial dimension in her ring. She’d definitely appear in the same place she disappeared.” Xiang Han said confidently.

“You’re so sure?”

“This is how novels are always written.” Xiang Han said before warning him again. “Wait for her to appear, then hypnotise her and force her to hand the ring over.”
