All My Superpowers Come from the Law of Causality-Chapter 246 - 216: Information Misplacement

With just this one attempt, Su Xin roughly figured out the basic logic of this task.

The memory illusion required by the task, more accurately, should be called memory bias, making the target believe that there is a discrepancy between their memory and reality.

For example, if he once played a game with someone and the score was 3 to 5, he could say the score was 4 to 5. As long as the other party believes it, the task progress should be satisfied.

Therefore, to complete this task, the target must be someone with whom he has had interactions, as such a target has shared memories, which then makes it possible to mislead the other party, causing them to experience memory bias.

And it must also be someone with whom he has recently had interactions.

If too much time has passed, suddenly bringing up past events would be abrupt, and in such a situation, the other party usually won't consider if they remembered incorrectly, but would think it odd that he brought it up, likely developing a subconscious defense, making it hard to successfully mislead them.

Moreover, Su Xin mainly only has connections with classmates, and he does not want to contact them now, otherwise, he might harm them.

Additionally, the memory to mislead the other party must concern trivial matters because they are not easily misled on major events that they clearly remember.

But it shouldn't be too trivial.

Otherwise, the party might not remember the event at all, thus not having any memory for a memory illusion to occur.

For instance, picking a friend he once had a meal with and saying that they had two bowls of rice that day—if the other party has no recollection, even if they believe Su Xin's words, it wouldn't be considered a memory illusion.

With these conditions clarified, Su Xin gradually formed a general plan of action in his mind.

At this moment, sensing that the Illusion Body of Su Xin had disembarked the plane and parted ways with Liu Shaorong and others, Su Xin thought for a moment and decided not to make that person his target.

With a thought, he directed his Illusion Body to run around aimlessly before hiding in a secluded corner, while his real self teleported to the training base to reveal himself.

Although he understood that many upper-level powers likely suspected that Su Xin and Feng Qian were the same person, as long as it was not publicly admitted, he decided not to expose himself proactively.

Therefore, whenever Su Xin's real self was about to appear, his Illusion Body would hide away somewhere, disappearing when the real self emerged.

Once the real self hid, he would go near the location where the Illusion Body disappeared to release it again.

Within the training base.

Su Xin appeared in his real identity.

He first had someone call Lin Yufei to the office for a casual chat, asking about her training progress, and just as he was about to get to the main topic, he remembered hearing that Lin Yufei had health issues. So, he used the Rune Network to sense her life status.

The Rune Network, in addition to being used for locating and communication, could also sense the life status of any target he had marked with the Life and Death Talisman.

When he first acquired this trait, he randomly selected several targets to sense.

In his perception, the targets marked with the Life and Death Talisman had life statuses that mostly resembled calmly burning candles.

Although their flames were not fierce, they were usually very stable and gentle.

But this time, when he sensed Lin Yufei's life status, he found that she was like a candle about to burn out, her flame occasionally jumping, flashing, swaying non-stop, as if her fuel was about to run out and her flame could extinguish at any moment.

Su Xin understood that this likely meant Lin Yufei's life could end at any time.

He frowned slightly and asked:

"Your condition is very worrying, as if the oil is running out and the lamp is flickering; it seems you could die at any moment. Have you reported this to your mentors?"

Lin Yufei looked at Su Xin in surprise; she didn't hide anything and shook her head, saying:

"My health isn't good. I actually awakened my abilities through a special drug, and I've heard it has strong side effects. For now, I feel I can bear it, so I haven't reported it."

"But these past two days, I indeed feel much weaker than before. I ate more nutritious meals and rested a few more hours, and now I feel much better—not as weak as a few days ago."

Su Xin recalled that after he had obtained the Life Lodging trait, he activated this trait for all targets in the organization marked with the Life Talisman.

After activating Life Lodging, the Life Talisman deeply binds with the host's life, slowly siphoning off their life force to accumulate.

For an ordinary person, siphoning some life force might feel unnoticeable, but for the already weak Lin Yufei, the siphoning of some life force might have brought her significant pressure.

After thinking about it, Su Xin said:

"After marking you with the Life Talisman, I can roughly perceive your life status. You're in very poor condition and could die at any time. Be sure not to neglect this—I'll arrange a medical team for you later, and you must cooperate with treatment."

Lin Yufei didn't dare to question Su Xin's words, and hearing them, her expression became increasingly grave. She nodded and said:

"Okay, I understand."

Su Xin continued: "When I invited you to join the Dawn Association, I promised that since the organization had just been established, you are considered a founding member, so in many matters, I would provide you with special treatment, like better welfare benefits."

"This was my promise, so you mustn't feel indebted to me or the organization. Your abilities have great potential, and as long as you survive, there will be plenty of opportunities to repay us in the future."
