Chapter 513 - The Mind-Reading Girl
After the battle ended, Klein listened to the local aborigines during his recuperation period and heard a lot about Demon King Saxe.
According to them, the Demon King hadn"t always been high-profile.
He had been in his lair recently and rarely appeared.
As the local residents were used to being bullied by him, they rarely resisted.
As a result, most of the resources in this s.p.a.ce flowed into the hands of Demon King Saxe.
Very few of them were given to the local aborigines.
Saxe didn"t seem to care about the lives of these people and let them fend for themselves.
Therefore, it had been a long time since they discovered the intruders, including Klein.
It was only because Klein had obtained the legendary Black Lotus that he attracted Saxe"s attention.
"So that"s how it is..."
Klein reached out to touch his chin. He had indeed done many shocking things in this dimension, so it was no wonder that he had attracted the attention of the other side.
If that was the case, Saxe would probably not let Klein off easily.
Putting aside the fact that Klein had obtained many top-tier materials, including the Black Lotus, he had also obtained other things.
In addition, he had reduced Saxe"s right-hand man in the battle just now, killing the most powerful general by his side.
He had already become a huge threat in Saxe"s eyes, so he would definitely get rid of him as soon as possible.
James and Cruise"s eyes also revealed a hint of worry.
Klein smiled wryly and said, "You should be more careful. According to what they said, Demon King Saxe isn"t someone to be dealt with easily. Although he retreated this time, it was also because they were too disdainful of us. It won"t be the same next time."
A wry smile appeared on Klein"s face. He wasn"t actually afraid, nor was he worried that the other party would use any means to deal with him.
He only felt that Demon King Saxe was a little strange.
Since he had already occupied the entire s.p.a.ce and enslaved the local aborigines, he should be satisfied.
Why did he still do so many puzzling things?
Of course, there was another question that lingered around Klein"s chest for a long time.
That was the blonde girl"s true ident.i.ty.
The girl sat by the side eating sweet potatoes with a satisfied expression.
It was probably because she hadn"t eaten for a long time that she was famished.
Her memory wasn"t very good. It was as though she had long forgotten about the dangerous scenes she had just seen and was grinning as she tasted the delicious food in front of her.
Klein inched closer to the blonde girl"s face and studied it.
Klein said, "Do you still remember what your name is and where you came from? Do you know the man talking to just now?"
The blonde girl blinked and shook her head gently.
"I don"t remember who I am. You can give me a name that"s convenient for you to call me. I don"t know anyone other than you..."
This was a little troublesome. Klein could actually see that although the girl was in a sorry state and her mind wasn"t clear.
But he could still vaguely see that the clothes she was wearing were very expensive.
Well, it looked like she was high up in the hierarchy before appearing in the dungeon.
Combined with Harris calling her "Her Highness", Klein began to wonder who the girl really was.
If she has anything to do with Saxe, it would be dangerous to keep her around.
Probably reading Klein"s thoughts, the blonde girl looked nervous.
"Don"t worry, I"m not a bad person. Although I can"t remember who I am, I guarantee that I won"t do anything to make things difficult for you. Please don"t chase me away!"
Klein was somewhat surprised. He clearly didn"t say a word, but the other party could read his mind?
He pointed at James, who was sitting beside him.
"Then, take a look at what this person is thinking?!"
The blonde girl wiped the residue from her mouth and widened her eyes.
She didn"t dare to defy Klein in the slightest, afraid that this person would abandon her.
The blonde girl looked at him and said, "This big brother is afraid. He"s very afraid of Demon King Saxe that he has never met before, and he"s worried about your safety!"
When she said that, a look of shock appeared on James" face.
He stood up from his seat with a whoosh and looked at the blonde girl with a terrified gaze.
How was this possible? Why could this girl see through the thoughts of others?
James was indeed thinking about this question just now.
"Who... Who are you? How do you know what others think? When did you begin to possess this ability?"
James" extreme att.i.tude gave the blonde girl a fright.
She hid behind Klein, blinking her black eyes as she looked at James without explaining anything.
At this moment, Klein finally confirmed his guess. This wasn"t an ordinary girl.
She actually possessed a unique skill and the ability to see through the thoughts of others. This was probably the legendary mind-reading ability.
Like other abilities, mind-reading had existed since a long time ago.
However, as time pa.s.sed, the number of people who possessed this ability became fewer and fewer. Gradually, it became a legend.
There were also some charlatans and swindlers who pretended to be mind-reading ability users to cheat others of their money.
As time pa.s.sed, no one believed in this strange superpower anymore.
He didn"t expect that the blonde girl, who had lost her memory and lost her consciousness, would be able to master such a mystical mind-reading ability. Furthermore, she had already reached a peak state.
"Can you calm down and not scare the girl?"
Klein could tell that the girl wasn"t lying. She really couldn"t remember anything.
And this ability seemed to have been born into her. She didn"t understand why she had it.
James sighed softly. He probably felt that he was a little rash, but he still could not hide the puzzled expression on his face.
Cruise was a little curious and pointed at his nose.
"You really know how to read minds? Then guess what I"m thinking about now?"
This ability was a double-edged sword. Although it could penetrate the minds of others, in a certain aspect, it would put superpowered people in danger.
Some people would use them to achieve their own ulterior motives.
Just as the few of them were researching the advantages and disadvantages of the mind-reading ability...
The bald uncle hurriedly ran in after learning of the matter.
"I heard everything you said outside. If this girl really has the mind-reading ability, then she"ll be in great danger!"
Klein blinked. It seemed like the bald uncle knew some secret stories about mind reading, so he quickly asked about the situation.
It turned out that one of the ancestors of this dimension from a thousand years ago was proficient in mind reading.
She was a very beautiful female wizard. Not only could she see through the thoughts of others, she was also extremely intelligent and could divine.
But because she could tell where things were going, a lot of secrets were leaked.
The witch did not end up well and died young.
