Chapter 62: 62, Telekinesis Awakener
“Um…”
Zhao Jiayi lowered her head, somewhat embarrassedly and said in a soft voice, “I didn’t mean to pry into your secrets; I also didn’t expect you to stimulate the Instinct Level Combat Skill just to pick up orange peels…”
Lin Qing shook his head helplessly, “Nor could I have expected that a Telekinesis Awakener would join my team?”
He then asked, “The fugitives near the bathhouse in your neighborhood, did you discover them using your telekinesis too?”
“Right…”
Zhao Jiayi nodded, “Earlier, I took a sightseeing bus to tour the entire Xiao Shan District. Plus, I memorized all the fugitives’ photos beforehand, along with my ability to sense the strength of different people’s life fields; these fugitives’ life fields were significantly stronger than ordinary people’s, making them not hard to find.”
...
Lin Qing suddenly understood.
He asked again, “That first time we went to the Red Oak Boxing Gym, it was you who subconsciously reminded me to move that wardrobe in the changing room, right?”
“Yeah, I had already discovered the Underground Boxing Arena beneath the Red Oak Boxing Gym.”
Zhao Jiayi nodded and said, “I was thinking about letting you achieve Merit sooner, so I subconsciously reminded you.”
“My strength wasn’t nearly what it is now,” Lin Qing shook his head. “Weren’t you afraid I’d be silenced the moment I moved that wardrobe?”
“No way…”
Zhao Jiayi paused, then said, “With my telekinesis fully active, those archers’ arrows couldn’t possibly touch you. I was planning to control the trajectory of the arrows to just ‘barely’ miss you, making it look like you dodged them by sheer luck.”
“Your marksmanship was so good, and it was even stronger after you activated the Combat Skill ‘Speed.’ I had planned to control the acceleration of your bullets after you fired.”
She blinked, “Plus, I was planning to subconsciously alert the higher-ups of the Underground Boxing Arena to suspect an ambush. They’d likely retreat quickly, so you wouldn’t need to fight much to close down the arena and directly earn a Second-class Merit. Even if the Boss of the Underground Boxing Arena showed up, I could ensure you’d take him down in a few shots.”
Lin Qing was astonished.
Turns out he could have directly closed down the Underground Boxing Arena then, even though his strength wasn’t sufficient?
Back then, he purely gave up because his Order Level had dropped quite a bit, and he felt it was too risky.
But now, this was still better.
If everyone in the Underground Boxing Arena had withdrawn, closing it down would have just scored a Second-class Merit.
Now, catching them all in one go naturally garnered more Merit.
“No wonder…”
Lin Qing took a deep breath and said, “Later on, at that bathhouse and the Ferris wheel at the amusement park, it was also you subconsciously reminding me…”
He suddenly asked, “How about your telekinesis, combat-wise? Can you kill that fugitive, Chu Tianyao of Qinghu Island?”
“That fugitive?”
Zhao Jiayi immediately shook her head, “He’s too strong for me; I practically can’t handle him.”
“Can’t handle him? Aren’t you a Telekinesis Awakener?” Lin Qing said, puzzled.
After succeeding in the Original Chaoyang Method, telekinesis awakening, being rarer and supposed to be stronger, should be strong, shouldn’t it?
“But…”
Zhao Jiayi said helplessly, “Telekinesis Awakening or Genetic Awakening doesn’t necessarily mean strong combat ability; it just means being able to control genes or influence reality with thoughts.”

“Oh?” It was the first time Lin Qing had heard this.
“Some people are born with Genetic Awakening or telekinesis awakening, but if they’re just infants, they are still very frail.”
Zhao Jiayi puffed her cheeks, “My telekinesis is also limited by my physical condition, so it can’t manifest much. I’ve only just mastered the four-six version of the Sunrise Training Method; I haven’t even started on the seven-seven version yet.”
Lin Qing appeared thoughtful.
After a while, he asked again, “Besides perception detection, can telekinesis also control objects and influence the subconscious?”
Zhao Jiayi nodded and candidly said, “Controlling objects depends on the distance. Within a hundred meters, I can currently lift about six hundred kilograms with my telekinesis. If it’s farther away or through a very thick ground, then it’s not possible, and the telekinesis penetration will also be very difficult, consuming more energy.”
“Six hundred kilograms?” Lin Qing slightly shook his head.
He could now lift nearly a ton of objects after activating Combat Skill.
Moreover, he was not naturally strong; once he could pre-activate the “Power” from Combat Skill, his strength could increase by at least three or four times!
And Zhao Jiayi’s telekinesis could only lift six hundred kilograms?
Although telekinesis wins in being intangible and more flexible in controlling objects, this amount of strength still seemed rather small.
“Can you use telekinesis to directly pull out someone’s eyeball?” Lin Qing asked, “This six hundred kilograms of force, if targeted at a weak point, could work.”
“No.”
Zhao Jiayi shook her head. “If it were a corpse, then yes, but with living beings, their spiritual will is closely related to their flesh. My telekinesis blends right in upon contact, and I can only perform a direct mental attack. However, for those with a strong will, mental attacks are useless.”
Lin Qing slightly furrowed his brows and asked, “Then how do you influence the subconscious?”
“It’s not really influencing the subconscious.”
Zhao Jiayi said helplessly, “To put it plainly, it’s just mental communication. But my telekinesis is still too weak; I can’t directly communicate with the surface consciousness, so I can only unilaterally talk to their subconscious, which means I have to keep repeating it.”
She thought for a moment and gave an example, “It’s like when you arrive at a fork in the road and don’t know which direction to take. If someone keeps telling you there’s gold down the left path, you’ll somewhat believe it. I’m the one telling your subconscious, so that’s why you get that intuition.”
“I see…” Lin Qing suddenly understood.
“But it’s just a subconscious intuition after all.”
Zhao Jiayi sighed, “I’ve heard that those who have truly faced a Telekinesis Awakener maintain enough rationality, so this trick doesn’t really work.”
She glanced at the silent Lin Qing and couldn’t help asking, “Am I disappointing you as a telekinesis awakener?”
“Not at all.”
Lin Qing slightly shook his head, “You haven’t fully grown yet, but you’re already quite formidable. Your detection and perception abilities are freakishly strong, and you don’t need to fight directly.”
Zhao Jiayi breathed a sigh of relief and, after a thought, she couldn’t help but say, “Actually, I have another special ability, but it consumes a lot. I used it last month and can’t use it now; I guess it might take about half a month to recover.”
“Half a month?”
Lin Qing didn’t ask what the ability was. She clearly didn’t want to speak much about it, merely revealing a bit probably out of fear of being rejected.
“Do you know of any other bases of the Yuanhong Society?” Lin Qing asked.
Zhao Jiayi thought for a moment and said, “In the Xiao Shan District, there seem to be some temporary bases of the Yuanhong Society. They are probably used as regular activity spots and seem to be related to human trafficking? I’m not quite sure about the details. I just came across them inadvertently through telekinesis detection.”
Lin Qing narrowed his eyes slightly.
After a while, he asked, “If the fugitives from Qinghu Island come to kill me, would you be able to sense them?”
“Of course.” Zhao Jiayi nodded, “Even if I don’t release my telekinesis actively, my innate sensing can detect the approach of a strong life field.”
“That’s good.”
Lin Qing suddenly smiled and said, “I’ll rent the house next to mine for you, so you can live next to me?”
“Ah?” Zhao Jiayi was taken aback.
