Chapter 31: The First Encounter
The airplane took off with a rumble, but the flight attendant had already walked far away.
Bai Luo watched the girl’s retreating figure, smacking his lips in a mix of regret and disappointment. He had successfully obtained her name, phone number, and place of residence...
Sadako clearly saw through Bai Luo's trivial conversation with the flight attendant and mockingly said, "What are you going to do with her phone number?"
That was indeed the truth.
Bai Luo felt a bit frustrated and muttered, "Should I just sell this information to whoever I can talk to later?"
Sadako didn’t respond directly but instead said, "Calm down; don’t focus on these things. I have a bad feeling."
Bai Luo frowned slightly. To be honest, Sadako's personality was completely different from what he had imagined. Both she and Mizumura Memeko were vengeful spirits and in a state of amnesia. While Mizumura Memeko was adorably innocent, Sadako appeared cold and rational—was this Sadako's original character? Or had the long years of slaughter and revenge fundamentally changed her personality to the point that even amnesia couldn’t reverse it?
Because of this, Bai Luo felt that Sadako’s words were not unfounded. He furrowed his brow and asked, "What’s going on?"
Sadako replied, "I’m not quite sure; it’s just an uncomfortable feeling I have. Maybe I’m overthinking it."
Bai Luo frowned again but didn’t press further. Nevertheless, he became more vigilant.
Having experienced so much, Bai Luo understood that this world was not only filled with vengeful spirits like Mizumura Memeko and Sadako but also included various elements from Marvel and reincarnators. Therefore, it was wise to remain cautious and alert.
The plane ascended steadily into the sky. The weather was nice, with not a cloud in sight. Nothing else seemed to happen; everything was calm and stable. Bai Luo even felt a bit drowsy—at his age, it was hard to fight off sleep, and he couldn't control it even if he wanted to.
However, just as Bai Luo was struggling to keep his eyes open, the voice of Sadako suddenly echoed within him. "Bai Luo."
Startled, Bai Luo lifted his head. Without needing further prompting from Sadako, he spotted a "suspicious" individual.
The person appeared to be Chinese, bald, over six feet tall but very thin, giving him an almost lanky appearance. His gaze was fixed on Bai Luo as he walked from the front to the back of the plane. When Bai Luo turned to meet his eyes, the man briefly flinched but then locked his gaze onto Bai Luo's, refusing to look away. His steps slowed down noticeably—clearly, this person was focused on Bai Luo.
As Bai Luo's eyes dropped downwards, he caught sight of an exquisite metal watch on the man's wrist. His pupils involuntarily constricted at that moment. He immediately asked the System in his mind, "Is this a Reincarnator?"
The System responded promptly.
[Scanning for confirmation.]
[Current target identity confirmed: Reincarnator.]
[Current Reincarnator level assessment in progress.]
[Level assessment failed; System level too low.]
Bai Luo felt a wave of frustration wash over him. "Why is there no prompt for the arrival of a Reincarnator this time?"
[No second batch of Reincarnators has descended at this time.]
Hearing this made Bai Luo feel as if he had been doused with cold water, instantly bringing him back to a state of calm.
He suddenly realized something.
Why did he assume that the people he saw in Kansas City were the entirety of the Airborne Reincarnators Team?
At this moment, there was indeed a fish that slipped through the net.
Bai Luo might not have been present when this Reincarnator descended. Later, when the Reincarnator side was crushed by Bai Luo and Logan, this Reincarnator knew that the situation was dire and chose to hide until now, at this moment, on this plane where he felt neither here nor there, he finally decided to take action!
With this thought, Bai Luo slowly stood up from his seat.
As long as it was white, his few permanent Talismans were all affixed to him.
However, the other party spoke first, a voice resonating directly in Bai Luo's mind: "This isn't a team battle; you aren't an enemy Reincarnator, nor are you a Main God envoy. You don't even have a wristwatch. So... who are you?"
Before Bai Luo could respond, Mizumura Memeko's voice echoed in his mind: "This person's mental strength is formidable. Should we counterattack?"
Hearing this and combining it with the Reincarnator's earlier message, Bai Luo understood that this Reincarnator's abilities were related to the mind and mental power. The discomfort Sadako felt earlier might have been due to sensing his presence, while Mizumura Memeko's weakness prevented her from perceiving him.
This level... is still a B-Rank?
Bai Luo didn't know. He sprang into action, lunging at the opponent. However, just as he leaped up, an unbearable sharp pain suddenly pierced through his mind. He let out a scream mid-air and fell hard to the ground, while Sadako shouted, "I'll handle him."
Immediately after, within the airplane cabin, a chilling wind swept through, accompanied by haunting auditory illusions—a woman's piercing scream—that was Sadako launching herself like lightning.
Her approach was straightforward; she attacked on two fronts—creating terrifying illusions in the opponent's mind while simultaneously appearing right in front of him, reaching out her hands with the intent to strangle him directly.
However, in that instant, an unparalleled mental force erupted from the body of the Reincarnator.
At that moment, all the instruments on the plane suddenly malfunctioned, and everyone’s brains felt as if they had been struck by a heavy hammer, resulting in a chorus of anguished screams.
Bai Luo and Sadako were the first to be affected. Bai Luo was hiding behind his seat, staring at the previously stunning Flight Attendant with a horrified expression while frantically flipping through the System Mall, desperately searching for a Talisman that could instantly silence this "mental noise machine."
But the situation changed too rapidly. Although the Reincarnator's attack affected the entire plane, it primarily targeted Bai Luo and Sadako.
Mizumura Memeko immediately screamed in Bai Luo's mind, "Such powerful mental energy."
Clearly, Mizumura Memeko had bravely positioned herself at the forefront, but she could only hold on for less than a moment before letting out a cry of despair. A tidal wave of mental attacks surged toward them, causing Bai Luo's face to turn pale as the pain in his head became excruciatingly intense.
As this mental assault expanded—one that even affected physical instruments—the airplane soaring at ten thousand meters began to tilt.
