In the end, Jack was the first to break the silence. He stared at the empty space and said in a low voice, "I don't know who you are, and I don't know which force you belong to, but I can confirm that there was no enmity between us before today.
"I admire your ability, and I don't want to be your enemy. If you're unhappy with today's conflict, I'm willing to make amends. Whatever you want, I will do my best to satisfy you within my capabilities. "
The only response he got was the buzzing sound of the electric current.
Jack paused for a moment before continuing, "Your soul configuration has yet to reach the level where your mind can interfere with matter. My nervous system has been modified, and your influence on me is negligible.
"Yes, there's also that big guy. He's a very headache-inducing opponent. Perhaps he's currently rushing over, but inside the DeShang Building, I'll make his pace slow like a turtle. If we can't come to an agreement, we'll just have to drag it out … maybe until tomorrow morning?
Luo Nan still did not respond. There was no way to respond even if he wanted to. Jack was right about one thing. At present, he only had two means of communication. One was the Psychic Wave Network, and the other was the local network of the Format Pyramid. Neither of them were useful to Jack.
It was as if Jack's consciousness was hidden under a thick layer of ice water. He could reach it, but he had used up too much of his strength halfway through. It was almost nothing.
Luo Nan didn't know how Jack did it. He simply blocked out Jack's voice and scanned the entire room in an attempt to discover more information.
Of course, the most eye-catching thing in this training room was the pitch-black machine outside of Jack's body. With Luo Nan's meager knowledge of machinery, it was very hard for him to understand the ultimate purpose of the machine. And from the surface, it looked like the machine was just an unending stream of electricity being poured into Jack's body.
Luo Nan paid attention to the voltage indicator. Any normal person would have turned into charcoal by now, but Jack seemed to be enjoying it.
It could be seen that the electric current instilled by the black machine had truly cut into every part of Jack's body. Jack's muscles were twitching and trembling every second, but within this twitching and trembling, there was clearly a relatively stable rhythm.
This meant that Jack had retained some control over his body.
What did he just say? On the way to heaven — it was clear that such an electric infusion was beneficial to Jack.
Oh, in that case …
Jack continued to chatter endlessly while Luo Nan was gathering information: "I get it. You can't open your mouth, right? The research on soul configuration on Earth is still very backward, or are you just a talented person who got lucky? Very well, then. I can probably guess what you are more interested in. Intelligence, information, all kinds of knowledge that can broaden your horizons.
"For example, right now, I can tell you that you can use the special waveband of your soul configuration to communicate with me. This is because my body has been implanted with the corresponding transceiver. Even if I haven't used it for two to three years, it shouldn't be damaged.
"We can try it now. You just need to focus your mind. You have the talent to form a soul configuration, so it should be easy for you to do this. "
The void was silent for about five seconds. Then, Jack smiled. The psychic waves from the outside world were converted into recognizable information through the transceiver in his body, ringing in his ears.
"I can now believe that you are indeed not from the military."
"If the military possessed a similar transformation project, then they wouldn't be in such a difficult situation when facing the Darksider life forms."
Jack maintained his smile, making the scar on his face look less sinister: "Of course, there is a certain difference between soul configuration and Darksider life forms. We can talk about it in detail later."
"You really do know a lot." Luo Nan expressed his admiration for Jack's ability to bring up new information at any moment.
"That's why I'm a very good information peddler."
Jack continued to speak with fervor and assurance: "What do we talk about? Oh, right. Let's talk about why we became enemies. I think you will certainly be interested in that pretty boy Yan Yongbo … … Now that you mention it, I find that I know too much. "
Luo Nan sneered. Yes, this fellow buried countless hooks in his words. What Earth, soul configuration, psychic wave transceiver … … But in reality, there was practically no valuable information that he revealed.
So a second later, Luo Nan directly said: "Let's talk about that metal beetle."
The smile on Jack's lips widened: "Friend, you must be quite young. You must know that communication shouldn't be done in a fit of pique. You should think of ways to embarrass the other party. I know that you must be more interested in Yan Yongbo. Otherwise, you wouldn't have followed him.
"Let me think. What is his explosive point? For example: Quantum Corporation? Archetype Format? The world's first Burner? Or perhaps … … Deep Blue World? "
"You must be a master storyteller." Luo Nan used psychic waves to send a mocking message, but he had no choice but to admit that the titles that Jack mentioned had nearly caused his curiosity to explode.
It was as if he had bumped into a moving database of information.
This fellow, Jack, was absolutely not a simple gang leader. His experiences, knowledge, and even the level of contact he had had with him far exceeded Luo Nan's previous estimations.
However, let's just leave it at that for now … …
Jack's smile continued to persist, but a short second later, astonishment and explosive rage tore apart this layer of mask, arriving together with the darkness that enveloped the room.
A power outage!
The low humming of the pitch-black machine gradually came to a stop. The power outage protection was done quite well. The muscles on Jack's body only twitched a bit before returning to normal.
But his mood couldn't return: "Damn it! What did you do!"
Jack roared in the darkness. He did his best to shake his arms, but this didn't give him a sliver of electricity.
"It's as you can see. The power is out." Luo Nan used the method that Jack taught him to maintain communication.
Jack's choice of the top floor of the DeShang Building as a hiding place was indeed an unimaginably brilliant move. However, as a business district with people coming and going, there were uncontrollable factors … … To put it more bluntly, there were far too many human factors.
Hypnosis combined with the Human-Faced Arachnid's Fishing Technique was truly too useful.
Luo Nan just spent a bit of time while Jack chattered on endlessly. He chose a property manager and cut off the power supply to this floor. During this time, he discovered that Jack's training room used a dedicated power supply line. But this point was meaningless in front of the manager of the building.
Reality proved that no matter what function the machine Jack used, it could only be a pile of scrap metal once the power supply was cut off.
"I want to obtain information. You want to obtain time. The meaning of communication lies in this … … But no one can obtain it. So what?"
It seemed that the last remnant images of his peers in the boxing ring still remained before Luo Nan's eyes. He didn't care whether or not Jack could see them. His soul body made the same negative action of crossing its arms:
