Handing Ru Jianxiao over to Qiu Sixun, Liu Yun wiped the sweat from her forehead and replied, "I found him on my way here and noticed that he was still breathing. Thinking that you might be able to save him, I brought him back."

Qiu Sixun stared at Liu Yun and thought, ’She is too kind for this world. I hope she is not one of those saintly types of women. Otherwise, we will need to separate from her sooner or later.’

Although he was thinking this, Qiu Sixun didn’t show any reaction on his face. Turning to Gu Zhenwei and Lan Zuancheng, he said, "Brothers, come and help me."

Putting down their half-eaten instant noodles, Gu Zhenwei and Lan Zuancheng walked over to Qiu Sixun.

However, the moment Gu Zhenwei saw Ru Jianxiao’s face, he exclaimed in shock, "Wait a minute! Isn’t this the young man who was beaten by Liu Ruyan and Ye Jin?!"

Hearing this, Lan Zuancheng took a closer look at the unconscious Ru Jianxiao. A few seconds later, he nodded.

"It’s him."

Looking at his two brothers, Qiu Sixun realized that this man might not be an ordinary survivor as he thought. Glancing at Ru Jianxiao’s blood-covered body, he frowned slightly.

After a moment of thought, he said, "Stop talking and let him lie down. I need to check his wounds and clean the blood before the smell attracts zombies or mutants. We can talk about everything else after he wakes up."

Exchanging glances, Gu Zhenwei and Lan Zuancheng nodded in response.

"Alright."

With that, the two of them carried Ru Jianxiao to the corner, followed by Qiu Sixun.

Seeing that they were busy, Liu Yun found an empty spot beside the sleeping Ye Xuan and quickly opened her System Panel.

Rubbing her hands together in excitement, she opened the Skill List.

The moment she saw a new skill appear under the Special Skills section, Liu Yun’s heartbeat quickened, and her eyes lit up with excitement.

’Heaven’s Eyes? What kind of skill is this?’

Feeling curious about her new skill, Liu Yun tapped on it and opened the detailed information.

[Heaven’s Eyes]

[Grade: Unique]

[Type: System Authority Skill]

[Category: Special Skill]

[Level: Lv. 1]

[Proficiency: 0 / 10,000]

[Description: A mysterious eye granted to the Player by the System after the completion of a Special Mission. It allows the Player to perceive truths hidden beneath the surface of reality.

^&*%^$$()(&&^%^#((^#^%#(*)($%^%^

"Those who see the truth may also become visible to the truth."]

[WARNING: The deeper the truth is observed, the greater the possibility of attracting the attention of the observed existence.]

Liu Yun read the skill’s information and scratched her head in confusion.

After a brief moment of silence, she finally asked, ’System, what’s written there that got censored? Is there something I can’t see?’

A few seconds passed in silence before the System’s mechanical voice finally came.

[The Player’s authority level is too low. You cannot access this information.]

Liu Yun’s eyes flickered when she heard the words "authority level" from the System again.

Rubbing her chin, she pondered curiously, ’This is the second time the System has mentioned the words "authority level."’

Glancing at the large, bold warning displayed on the transparent blue screen, Liu Yun frowned deeply.

’Also, what’s with this warning? Does it mean that the observed target has a chance to detect me?’

Unable to find the answer, she decided to ask the System. ’System, can the observed target counter-detect me when I use Heaven’s Eyes?’

A second after she asked, the System replied, [The observed target will not be able to counter-detect the Player when Heaven’s Eyes is being used. However, some observed targets may possess heightened senses and be able to sense the Player’s existence when being observed.]

Liu Yun nodded in understanding after listening to the System’s explanation.

’I understand. It’s good that the observed target can’t counter-detect me. Otherwise, it would be troublesome if someone discovered your existence, System.’

Floating in the center of Liu Yun’s sea of consciousness, the System watched the countless blue screens surrounding it and fell into deep thought.

Not receiving any response from the System, Liu Yun glanced at Ye Xuan. After thinking for a moment, she decided to test her new skill.

Focusing her mind on Ye Xuan, she silently recited, ’Identify!’

Liu Yun waited for a long time, but she didn’t see or hear anything. Feeling awkward and embarrassed, her face grew hot. Coughing lightly, she cleared her throat and decided to try again.

This time, she searched through her mind for the Heaven’s Eyes skill first. After searching for a long while, she finally found it lying dormant inside her mind.

Based on her experience with the Telekinesis skill, Liu Yun began circulating her mental energy to activate Heaven’s Eyes.

A few minutes later, her back was covered in sweat. Just as she was about to give up, a notification suddenly rang inside her mind.

Ding!

[Heaven’s Eyes successfully activated. Scanning in progress.]

Hearing this, Liu Yun’s eyes lit up. She clenched her fists tightly and exclaimed inwardly, ’Success!’

While she rejoiced at her small success, another notification sounded.

Ding!

[Heaven’s Eyes activation failed.]

Ding!

[Proficiency +10.]

When Liu Yun heard this, she was stunned. Grabbing her hair, she wailed inwardly, ’Heaven! Can this skill fail too?! Isn’t this a unique skill?!’

Despite her disbelief, the System’s mechanical voice echoed in her mind.

[Player, your skill level is too low. This System recommends training the skill and leveling it up before attempting to scan the current observed target.]

Hearing this, Liu Yun took a deep breath and let out a disappointed sigh.

’You are right. Considering his identity as the future Zombie Emperor, my current skill level indeed isn’t high enough to observe his background.’

Accepting the fact that she was too weak to uncover the Zombie Emperor’s background and hidden information, Liu Yun turned her gaze toward Ru Jianxiao.

’System, since he was the target of a Special Mission with the penalty of World Destruction Progress +5%, Ru Jianxiao should be an important character in the future. Can my current Heaven’s Eyes level reveal his information?’

[Player, you can give it a try.]

Since Heaven’s Eyes didn’t consume any Mental Points, Liu Yun decided to use Ru Jianxiao to increase the skill’s proficiency. Maybe, she could find something useful from him.

Now that she had successfully activated Heaven’s Eyes once, Liu Yun found it easier to use the skill for the second time. Focusing her mind on Ru Jianxiao, she activated Heaven’s Eyes and successfully used it on her first attempt.

Ding!

[Heaven’s Eyes successfully activated. Scanning in progress.]

Ding!

[Proficiency +20.]

The moment the successful notification appeared, a blue screen materialized before Liu Yun.

[Name: Ru Jianxiao]

[Soul Origin: Apocalypse World]

[Special Condition: Reborner]

[Causal Distortion: HIGH]

The moment Liu Yun read the brief information displayed on the transparent blue screen, her eyes almost popped out of their sockets, and her jaw dropped to the floor.

Swallowing hard, she couldn’t help but scream inside her heart, ’Grass! Ru Jianxiao is a Reborner?! System, why didn’t you tell me?! You are digging a pit for me to jump, aren’t you?!’
