All My Superpowers Come from the Law of Causality-Chapter 269 - 227: Super Locksmith (Part 2)

It's not just because of Su Xin's words; it's mainly because of the broken psychic link in his mind.

He knows this means he has completely lost contact with the Divine Realm, and his life and death are now completely in Su Xin's hands.

But at the same time, it also means the Divine Realm has lost its surveillance over him...

Qing Tian felt conflicted for a moment.

But he quickly resolved:

"No, I can't speak!"

"If I speak... I will be completely abandoned by Genesis, losing the chance for eternal life."

Just as he was thinking this, a consciousness suddenly intruded into his mind.

"Qing Tian, hold on, we will rescue you, but it will take some time. You've just been captured, so he will surely be wary of you escaping. Any disturbance might make him instantly teleport back."

"So, during this time, do not exhibit any abnormal behavior, pretend to have lost contact with us, and don't divulge any secret information."

"Wait for the right opportunity!"

Qing Tian's heart was stirred, and he quickly responded:

"I understand!"

Once he said this, the psychic link was severed.

The Divine Realm.

Genesis sighed heavily.

He had initially decided to kill Qing Tian the moment he found him, but when the tracker was activated, Su Xin was still teleporting repeatedly, so he had to wait for the right moment.

As a result, when he discovered that Su Xin had finally stopped with Qing Tian, as he was waiting for the right opportunity to strike, he noticed that Su Xin seemed to have resurrected Qing Tian with just a thought, followed by hearing Su Xin say, "I can make you unable to die forever, make you unable to escape forever."

It was then he realized that Su Xin's resurrection ability was even more powerful than he had imagined.

If he really killed Qing Tian, and Su Xin resurrected him, that would almost push Qing Tian to the opposite side.

Therefore, he could not kill him.

He could only gamble.

Gamble that Qing Tian would keep silent.

Gamble that Qing Tian had confidence in the Divine Realm, in him, and would not betray him.

He deliberately observed for a while and found that Qing Tian indeed had no intention of revealing information, so he allowed the Mind Lord to connect with Qing Tian.

Furthermore, the tracker's signal had been remotely deactivated. As long as Su Xin didn't suddenly think to check carefully, it was unlikely to be discovered.

Things weren't as bad as he thought.

...

In fact, Su Xin took several minutes to teleport to this base, so during the teleportation, Genesis' people locked onto the coordinates.

There was no way around it; the Metal Manipulation Superpower User was not at the headquarters but at this branch base, and Su Xin had to use the temporarily crafted chains and cage first, so he came to find him directly.

Moreover, Su Xin didn't even consider that there might be a micro tracker in Qing Tian's body, and he had no intention of inspecting it.

Seeing that Qing Tian still refused to disclose information, he was also unwilling to waste time with him.

Because the system task had just been triggered, he had no inclination to deal with him.

He said coldly:

"Qing Tian, given that you're quite strong, I won't torture you and will spare you some dignity, but remember, if you dare to harm my people, don't blame me for humiliating you in every way possible."

"Take care of yourself."

Saying that, Su Xin turned and left.

After giving the base personnel a few instructions, he planted five Life Talismans on everyone in the base.

Then he teleported away.

He first sent a lock of Qing Tian's hair, which he had secretly pulled off during the teleportation, back to the secret base for safekeeping before opening the task panel.

[Super Locksmith: Use technical means to unlock five different types of locks.]

[Current Progress: 0/5.]

"Five types of locks..."

Su Xin pondered for a moment.

The first thing he thought of was mechanical locks, electronic locks, and information locks.

Information locks, as he defined it, referred to encrypted websites or software, which obviously are not the same type as electronic locks.

But as for the other two types, he couldn't think of them for the moment, so he decided not to dwell on it and to first try it based on the current three ideas.

Since the task required unlocking with technical means, using a key or forceful destruction wouldn't count.

But still, Su Xin, thinking it wouldn't hurt to try, bought some mechanical locks and tested two of them, but they didn't work.

"Looks like I need to practice my skills..."

Su Xin researched mechanical lock structures online, then using his extraordinary physical abilities—mainly his powerful hearing—he maneuvered a thin wire in the lock hole, detecting subtle changes in the lock cylinder, and easily opened an iron lock.

Electronic locks were also simple.

Su Xin went to a lock shop and specifically bought the electronic lock with the worst security, opening it instantly with an EMP device.

With two task progress points improved, Su Xin confirmed his thought—

Different types of locks indeed referred to locks based on fundamentally different principles because during the mechanical lock process, he had bought some significantly different Mechanical locks, and after opening them, the task progress didn't improve.

This means he still needs to think of two more types of locks, different from mechanical locks, electronic locks, and information locks.

"Forget it, I'll unlock the information lock first."

Su Xin opened a website, preparing to learn hacker techniques to crack passwords, when he suddenly thought of a good idea and quickly contacted Zuo Shuanghui telepathically.

"Chairman Zuo, immediately arrange for someone to create a small website, the content doesn't matter, but it must be password-protected, and the password should be the simplest and easiest to crack, after creation, tell me the website, if someone cracks it, it doesn't matter."

"Also, let me know in advance what type of encryption method the website will use."

Hearing Su Xin's command, Zuo Shuanghui was a bit puzzled, but he had a great advantage: as long as Su Xin issued a command, no matter how strange or unreasonable it was, he would resolutely execute it.

After all, it wasn't the first or second time Su Xin had given such strange commands.

After breaking the consciousness communication, Su Xin silently gave himself a thumbs up for his cleverness.

Starting from scratch to learn hacker skills, while not too difficult for him, seemed troublesome.

Since that's the case, simply lower the problem's difficulty to make it easier to solve.

This is the benefit of having subordinates.

To get something small done, just a word suffices.

Soon, he received Zuo Shuanghui's report, learning which type of encryption the technical staff planned to use, so he went online to learn the corresponding tutorial.

In less than half an hour, by the time Zuo Shuanghui sent over the website, Su Xin had almost learned, and he started step-by-step cracking according to the tutorial on his computer.

"Ding! [Super Locksmith] progress +1."

To this point, he had achieved three progress points.

As for the remaining two types of locks, since he couldn't think of them, he decided to search online aimlessly, trying to find inspiration.

The wisdom of the masses is endless.

It might be difficult to think on his own, but through the wisdom of netizens or various news reports, he might find some inspiration,

He paid attention to the content of any link with the word "lock."

Until he flipped through page after page.

At one moment, his eyes suddenly brightened, noticing a news report:

"...The police have currently sealed the crime scene and launched an emergency investigation..."

"Sealed... human sealing, or barrier sealing, this could also be counted as a lock, right?"

Su Xin immediately searched for the nearest crime scene and teleported there.

It was a murder scene in a small alley. Barricade tape blocked both sides of the alley, and a few officers were carefully searching inside.

Seeing Su Xin's figure, one officer was about to go over and stop him, but upon seeing Su Xin's appearance, he was so frightened that he dared not speak.

Su Xin intended to pull the barricade tape directly, but thinking it might not count as technical breaking, he didn't and instead instructed:

"Officer, please move this aside."

That officer disregarded protocol, hurriedly moving the barricade tape aside, allowing Su Xin to leisurely walk into their sealed area.

The task progress did not improve.

But Su Xin did not give up, instead instantly teleporting to the other end of the alley, and collecting the barricade tape.

The officers stared dumbfounded at him, bewildered by his actions.

Su Xin ignored them, a slight smile curling at his lips, and vanished with a teleport.

"Ding! [Super Locksmith] progress +1."

"Indeed, as long as you don't use a key or cause damage to the lock, it can count as technical. Just collecting the barricade tape works too."

"Only one more to go."

Su Xin fell into thought again.
