    Chapter 1: The Age of The Wastnd


    <strong>Trantor: </strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion  <strong>Editor: </strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion


    The ruins, the broken walls¡­


    The air was filled with the stench of decay.


    This was the year 2321, known as the Third Age of Man, and also known as, The Age of the Wastnd!


    In Paris, near the Eiffel Tower, rain was pouring.


    Su Chen stood on the tform in the middle of the tower, gently pulling down the hood on his head.


    He looked at a barren wastnd.


    What he saw was a human city that no longer existed.


    Broken remains and unknown mutated creatures were everywhere..


    This was the first time Su Chen had left the base and came to the outside world. His purpose was to carry out an exploration mission.


    Looking at the wreckage of the city, countless nts that were shimmering with a scarlet luster were slowly swaying, making people¡¯s eyes unconsciously attracted to them.


    ¡°Zzz¡­¡±


    Just as Su Chen was lost in his thoughts, a grayish-brown beetle climbed up the rusty tower to his feet.


    The green liquid dripping from the beetle¡¯s mouthparts quickly corroded the tower, leaving a ck spot. As if it had smelled the scent of its prey, it slowly crawled closer to Su Chen¡¯s ankle.


    ¡°Whoosh!¡±


    Just as the beetle¡¯s two pincer-like mouthparts were about to bite down on Su Chen¡¯s calf, a pitch-ck long knife flew across the air!


    In an instant, it nailed the beetle to the alloy tform.


    Su Chen¡¯s eyes focused. He was a little careless. He actually did not notice the approach of the mutated insect.


    At the same time, in the direction where the long knife was flying toward, a burly man crossed Su Chen¡¯s position and walked toward the edge of the tform.


    When he passed by, he conveniently pulled out the long knife that pierced the metal ground and casually shook the green liquid off on it.


    The poisonous liquid that could corrode the metal actually did not leave a single trace on the long knife.


    ¡°All of you, lean back a little. Be careful of poisonous insects,¡± the man said lightly.


    ¡°Okay, Captain Gao Fei,¡± the exploration team members returned.


    Gao Fei was wearing a ck waterproof tactical windbreaker, and his face was covered by a half gas mask.


    Standing on the edge of the tform, he looked like a statue. The sticky liquid on the long knife in his hand was quickly washed away by the rain. In the direction Gao Fei was looking at, a mutated bat was flying straight in his direction. Its shrill howl resounded across the sky!


    Its wingspan was close to 20 meters. Its slender neck looked extremely strange. Its deformed body made it hard to believe that such a creature could fly.


    Gao Fei¡¯s target was a red crystal that the bat grabbed with its sharp ws.


    The giant bat flew toward Gao Fei with a fishy smelling wind. A one-meter-long wound on its abdomen was bleeding non-stop. It was left behind by the man in front of him.


    The moment when the bat attacked with anger, Gao Fei moved!


    His long saber was like a beam of light, as he shed out brazenly!


    A silvery-white de aura instantly pierced through the bat¡¯s huge body.


    ¡°Boom!¡±


    With a loud sound, the deformed monster fell straight to the man¡¯s feet.


    ¡°Squeak!¡±


    When the monster fell on the long-dpidated tform, the metal ground let out a series of heavy sounds.


    Gao Fei took the red crystal from the bat¡¯s sharp ws and turned around to leave.


    At this moment, the mutated bat seemed to have returned to life. Its slender neck stretched out at a twisted angle like lightning, and its huge mouth full of dense teeth bit gnashed at Gao Fei¡¯s lower body!


    ¡°Da! Da! Da! Da!¡±


    The sound of a fire snake spewing from the muzzle of the gun was heard!


    At this moment, a series of heavy bullets connected head to tail and entered the monster¡¯s huge mouth without missing a beat, causing the monster¡¯s movements to pause for a moment!


    Gao Fei took this opportunity to turn around and sh his de downward.


    The giant bat¡¯s head finally fell to the ground, no longer breathing.


    Gao Fei looked in the direction where the gun wasing from with some surprise. A skinny youth entered his sight, and the gun in his hand was still emitting wisps of white smoke.


    ¡°Su Chen? Well done!¡± He praised.


    After that, Gao Fei¡¯s gaze swept over the swaying strange nts and continued speaking,¡°These damn things give me a bad feeling. Let¡¯s speed up this operation.¡±


    The energy in the base could onlyst for another month at most. The purpose of this operation was to find enough energy.


    Gao Fei¡¯s gaze looked at the red crystal in his hand. This was an Origin Stone. Although it was only the size of two palms, the energy contained within was enough for a base of nearly a million people to consume in a day.


    This time, their real target was the wreckage of a spaceship next to the Eiffel Tower.


    There was arge amount of energy reaction in the wreckage of the spaceship. The number of Origin Stones hidden inside the spaceship was probably not small.


    Once they could sessfully obtain this batch of Origin Stones, the energy problem in the base should be alleviated.


    If they failed, the base would send a second exploration team into the wastnd.


    There was naturally more than one exploration team in the base. Through the amount of resources they obtained, they also had a healthypetitive rtionship.


    Thinking of this, Gao Fei turned around and walked toward the wreckage of the spaceship.


    The huge spaceship crashed near the Eiffel Tower. The huge wreckage of the spaceship was close to the central tform of the Eiffel Tower. From the tform, one could enter the wreckage of the spaceship.


    Looking at the figure flying away, Su Chen took a deep breath. The heat from the gun in his hand calmed him down a lot.


    ¡°Thermal weapons are indeed difficult to damage Origin Beasts. I still need to obtain the power of an evolver as soon as possible.¡±Su Chen muttered to himself.


    The few shots just now only caused some obstruction to the Origin Beasts.


    Origin Beasts were the collective name of mutated monsters like mutated bats.


    When The Age of the Wastnd arrived, humans had fallen to the top of the biological chain.


    Fortunately, when the Origin Beast was born, it was not very powerful. It gave humans a chance. Through the research of scientists from all over the world, the gene reagent was born.


    By injecting the gene reagent, some humans had the power to fight against the source beast.


    People like Gao Fei who had strange abilities were known as Evolvers.


    Only by relying on Evolvers did humans gain a firm foothold in this wastnd.


    Su Chen looked at the bat-type Origin Beast¡¯s corpse in front of him. Su Chen shook his head and turned around to look at the bottom of the tform. An alloy rope connected the tform to the gap between the spaceship wreckage.


    Everyone used this rope as a means of movement to enter the spaceship wreckage. They had already entered the spaceship wreckage one by one. Only Su Chen remained on the tform.


    In the rain, the gap of the spaceship was as ck as ink. It was like a giant steel beast that was ready to devour anyone.


    ¡°Kacha!¡±


    Su Chen fastened his harness¡¯ safety buckle on the rope.


    Apanied by the endless dark clouds, his figure streaked toward the depths of the darkness.


    Su Chen, who was 14 years old this year, had already injected his first gene reagent into the base.


    Unfortunately, the gene reagent did not have any effect on him.


    By chance, Su Chen had seen an eagle-type Origin Beast used for research in the base. Only then did he discover the ability he possessed.


    Moreover, this ability was extremely strange.


    Su Chen was able to directly fuse with the characteristics of an Origin Beast!


    Simply putting it, after fusing with the beast soul of that dying eagle-type Origin Beast, he had obtained a powerful vision.


    This was also the reason why his uracy rate was extremely terrifying.


    All the bullets were almost at the same level, which caused a certain degree of obstruction to the Origin Beast.


    However, after fusing with the beast¡¯s soul, Su Chen needed a certain amount of time to digest this energy. During this period, he was unable to fuse with other beast souls.


    Hence, Su Chen did not choose to fuse with the bat-type Origin Beast¡¯s soul. What could he obtain after fusing with it?


    Super hearing?


    What he urgently needed now was strength that could enhance his directbat ability.


    This was also the reason why Su Chen joined this exploration team. Only in this way could he have more opportunities toe into contact with Origin Beasts.


    This operation had mobilized three members of thebat team, as well as ten employees, including Su Chen.


    Although Su Chen also wanted to be a member of thebat team, the threshold to join thebat team was to be an Evolver with special abilities.


    For someone like Su Chen, who had only strengthened his physical fitness after injecting the drug, he could only be an employee if he wanted to join the exploration team.


    Unfortunately, Su Chen could not reveal his ability to gain the opportunity to join thebat team.


    The reason was very simple.


    For example, Gao Fei¡¯s special ability was to control the gale. The Saber Qi that he had shed out before were materialized from the wind¡¯s energy.


    One of the reasons why a person with superpower like him was on an exploration mission was because of the evolution potion provided by the base. The evolution potion could strengthen the user¡¯s superpower.


    However, Su Chen¡¯s superpower could continue to grow stronger as long as he fused with the Origin Beast¡¯s soul. It was practically a no-cost, no-profit ability. Once this strange ability was known, it would probably be taken by the research center in a few days to be dissected and studied.


    Su Chen shook his head and threw these thoughts out of his mind. He turned around and looked at the bottom of the tform. There was an alloy rope connecting the tform to the gap of the spaceship wreckage.


    Everyone used this rope as a means of movement to enter the spaceship wreckage. They had already entered the spaceship wreckage one by one. Only Su Chen remained on the tform.


    The gap of the spaceship in the rain was as ck as ink. It was like a giant steel beast that wanted to devour people.


    ¡°Click!¡±


    Su Chen fastened the safety buckle to the rope.


    Apanied by the endless dark clouds, his figure streaked toward the depths of the darkness.

    Chapter 2: Inside the Spaceship


    <strong>Trantor: </strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion  <strong>Editor: </strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion


    ¡°Ta!¡±


    The hard-soled Martin boots made a crisp sound when theynded on the ground.


    Su Chennded in the wreckage of the spaceship.


    There were a few glow sticks that emitted soft light on the surrounding walls, dispersing the darkness in this space.


    ¡°Mark, analyze the structure of the spaceship. The rest of you, stand by.¡±


    ¡°Yes, Captain.¡±


    Gao Fei and a fighter¡¯s voice came from beside his ear. The member called Mark began to use a palm-sized detector to analyze the map of the spaceship.


    Su Chen looked at the surrounding environment.. This should be a medium-sized civilian spaceship. There were no military marks on the wall.


    They had just entered from the tail of the spaceship and were now in a narrow passage. Afternding inside the spaceship, the air was much drier.


    Only near the damaged parts of the spaceship, gusts of cold wind seeped through from time to time. The cold air made Su Chen shiver.


    The members of thebat team were well-equipped, but as workers, their clothes were rtively simple.


    A one-piece work uniform, a pair of thick Martin boots, standard guns and portable digging tools. Other than that, there was a huge storage box on their backs.


    It was not thin, but the effect of the clothes was not any better.


    ¡°This damn weather is so f*cking disgusting. This job isn¡¯t done by humans at all.¡±


    A worker sat in a corner of the passage andined. However, his voice was very soft, for fear of being heard by the threebat team members who were exploring the spaceship.


    ¡°Ignore him. As workers, being able to join the exploration team is already much better than the civilians in the base.¡±


    A slightly plump youth smiled at Su Chen as he said this. Judging from his age, he should be around the same age as Su Chen.


    As he said this, this fatty was still continuously taking outpressed biscuits from the storage box and stuffing them into his mouth.


    ¡°Gu Xin, not everyone has the same thick fat as you to keep out the cold,¡± Su Chen scolded with a smile.


    He and Gu Xin had already known each other before they joined the exploration team. Two people of simr ages had been injected with gene reagents of the same batch.


    For some unknown reason, after Gu Xin had been injected with gene reagents, he started to show signs of gaining weight. Although his physical fitness had increased, he had yet to awaken his special ability.


    Speaking of this, Gu Xin¡¯s face immediately became gloomy. ¡°How would I know what¡¯s going on? Do you think I want to gain weight? It¡¯s not convenient for me to escape like this!¡±


    ¡°Then you should eat less!¡± Su Chen nced at the biscuit crumbs at the corner of Gu Xin¡¯s mouth.


    ¡°Then, I¡¯m hungry¡­ Let¡¯s not talk about this. Your luck is that good, right? You were directly assigned to Captain Gao Fei¡¯s explorer team.¡±


    ¡°I only got in because I gave a lot of benefits to the staff of the management department.¡±


    ¡°Huh? Is Captain Gao Fei¡¯s team any different?¡± Su Chen asked in surprise. He was indeed directly assigned to this team. He really did not understand the differences in this team other than the fact that Gao Fei looked extremely powerful.


    Although this team had three Evolvers asbat members, other than Gao Fei, the other two did not make a move during the entire journey.


    ¡°You don¡¯t even know about this? Captain Gao Fei¡¯s team has the lowest casualty rate among all the teams in the base! Especially amongst the workers!¡±


    ¡°Just because Captain Gao Fei is strong?¡±


    ¡°Not only that, but Captain Gao Fei also highly values the lives of workers. His attitude is one of the best among all thebat squads. All the workers under him know about it!¡±


    Hearing Gu Xin¡¯s answer, Su Chen finally understood. He recalled that Gao Fei had helped him kill the poisonous insects previously.


    Moreover, he could also see some clues from when Gao Fei was dealing with the bat-type Origin Beast.


    ¡°Moreover, you just received Captain Gao Fei¡¯s praise. If there are benefits, don¡¯t forget this good brother of mine!¡± Gu Xin rubbed his hands and looked at Su Chen with hope in his eyes.


    ¡°Just those few shots? How can there be any benefits?¡± Su Chenughed bitterly. After witnessing Gao Fei¡¯s battle, his sense of urgency to increase his strength became stronger and stronger.


    If firearms could deal with Origin Beasts, why would he need evolved humans?


    ¡°As for you, your fatness is somewhat illogical. Don¡¯t tell me you have awakened some special ability that you don¡¯t know about?¡±


    ¡°I want to as well. However, other than not having enough to eat every day, I really don¡¯t feel like I have awakened any special ability.¡±Gu Xin¡¯s expression was somewhat depressed. He was originally very poor. After injecting the gene reagent, he did not be much stronger, but his appetite had increased a lot. Who could endure this?


    Just as the two of them were conversing softly, Mark¡¯s side had already gained something.


    ¡°Captain, our current position is in the cargo hold at the rear of the spaceship. ording to the energy reaction meter, our target should be near the spaceship¡¯smand center.¡±


    ¡°Alright, you lead the way. Let¡¯s go.¡±


    As Gao Fei¡¯s voice fell, the team moved forward again.


    Everyone pulled out the glow sticks and stuck them in the wall. This was a rare lighting resource. Gao Fei and Mark walked at the front of the team, the workers walked in the middle, and finally, a femalebat team member was responsible for covering the rear.


    In the cold passage, there were steel walls all around them. They carefully walked through this narrow space.


    Due to their thin bodies, the huge storage box on their backs hurt Su Chen¡¯s shoulders. He had no choice but to adjust his posture to make his shoulders morefortable.


    ¡°This smells really bad,¡± Gu Xin muttered.


    Su Chen sniffed carefully. The spaceship was indeed filled with a fishy smell. It seemed to be the smell left behind by some insects.


    In this wastnd, the insects had also undergone a mutation. Not only did their body size be bigger, but even the food chain seemed to have changed.


    For example, when he met the beetle previously, its saliva was corrosive. It did not look like a herbivorous insect at all.


    All the remaining creatures on the surface were filled with violent killing intent toward the living things in their sight.


    Thinking of this, Su Chen looked at the surrounding vents more cautiously.


    Above the passage of the spaceship, there would be a narrow vent every certain distance. With the size of most mutated beasts, it was impossible for them to use this venttion system to move between the cabins of the spaceship. However, it was more than enough for some mutated insects.


    The fishy smell seemed toe from these narrow vents.


    Although Su Chen did not know the specific structure of the spaceship, he still knew about themon sense of the venttion system.


    Fortunately, this passage was not very long. The exploration team soon reached the end of the passage.


    Looking at the tightly shut cabin door, Gao Fei unsheathed his sharp de. The sharp de cut through the alloy-made steel door as easy as cutting butter.


    Mark held a precise instrument in his hand and froze on the spot.


    Looking at Gao Fei who sheathed his sword, he said with a headache, ¡°Captain, I can try to connect to the spaceship¡¯s energy system and directly open the cabin.¡±


    ¡°Since the energy instrument has a reaction, don¡¯t waste so much time. Save some time to collect materials.¡±


    Hearing Gao Fei¡¯s answer, Mark was deep in thought. He suddenly remembered the strange nts outside and could not help but shiver. Thest time he came out, there were not so many things on the surface.


    As the cabin door was carefully ced on the ground by several workers, the internal space was finally exposed.


    A glow stick was thrown into the cabin.


    Looking at the weak light source produced by the glow stick, Su Chen¡¯s heart skipped a beat. He quickly picked up the weapon in his hand.


    What the hell was this?


    Countless figures appeared in the huge cabin in front of him!


    Su Chen was certain that other than his team, there was absolutely no one else in the wreckage of the spaceship.


    The spaceship had crashed here for god knows how many years. It was impossible for anyone to move.


    What were these people?!


    Although they did not move, a strange feeling rushed toward them.


    ¡°This is a body.¡± Gao Fei raised his hand and pressed down the muzzle of Su Chen¡¯s gun.


    Gu Xin was so scared that he fell to the ground. The fat on his face was trembling slightly.


    Other people, including Gao Fei, looked at these figures with an unsurprised expression.

    Chapter 3: Shells


    <strong>Trantor: </strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion  <strong>Editor: </strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion


    ¡°These things are the remains of humans after death. They are called shells.¡±


    Mark exined from the side, but his expression was one of schadenfreude, as if he was happy to see the newbie being frightened.


    ¡°The shells were left behind by humans who lost their lives in an instant.¡±


    ¡°When the Origin Beasts evolved, they would create this scene. This means that we are not far from our target.¡±


    Gao Fei muttered, ¡°This should be the hull of this spaceship. Start collecting resources and stay away from these bodies.¡±


    After saying that, Gao Fei brought Mark along and walked forward. They wanted to check the specific location of the energy reaction.


    ¡°Gulp¡­ gulp¡±


    Su Chen swallowed a mouthful of saliva and walked toward the hull of the spaceship.


    After passing through the alloy door that was cut open, his vision was attracted by the mirror-like smooth cut.


    It was hard to imagine that this was caused by an ordinary looking sharp sword. It was even smoother than aser cut!


    His gaze lingered at the cut for a while before Su Chen mustered up his courage and walked toward the hall that was filled with people.


    In the middle, he did not forget to pull Gu Xin up who had fallen to the ground.


    ¡°I¡­ I remember now.


    ¡°I seem to have heard of these ¡®things¡¯ before.¡±


    Just as Su Chen pulled him up, Gu Xin spoke with a trembling voice.


    ¡°Hmm? Do you know where these bodies came from?¡± Upon hearing Gu Xin¡¯s words, Su Chen¡¯s interest was piqued.


    These bodies were too strange. If he did not know where they came from, walking in the middle of the hall would inevitably make him feel a little apprehensive.


    ¡°When the Origin Beast evolves, it will absorb the life energy of all living beings around it¡­ it might also be soul energy. As for the specifics, I¡¯m not too sure.


    ¡°Those who had their livespletely absorbed will leave behind these shells, and the origin energy in the body of the Origin Beast seems toe from this energy.¡±


    ¡°Hm¡­¡± Su Chen nodded thoughtfully, but his eyes suddenly changed. ¡°If that¡¯s the case, doesn¡¯t that mean that there is an evolved Origin Beast nearby?¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t know about that. So much time has passed, so maybe that Origin Beast has already left.¡±


    ¡°Hmm¡­ it¡¯s better to be careful,¡± Su Chen replied. Other than where they had entered, there were no other gaps in the spaceship.


    Moreover, they did not see any other exits along the way. The only huge door was opened by Gao Fei.


    It seemed that it was possible that the Origin Beast was hiding here.


    After receiving Gao Fei¡¯s order, all the workers entered the hull of the spaceship.


    The worker who had been sitting on the ground andining earlier sneered disdainfully when he passed by the two of them. ¡°Two newbies. You can¡¯t survive in the wastnd with such cowardice.


    ¡°Don¡¯t get us killed.¡±


    Su Chen did not feel anything after hearing that. He did not know where the sense of superiority of a person whoined endlessly during a mission came from.


    On the contrary, Gu Xin¡¯s face turned red with anger when he heard this, but he did not have anything to refute.


    After all, he was indeed shocked by the remains just now. He could only grumble unhappily, ¡°It¡¯s just a few more missions. What¡¯s the big deal?¡±


    ¡°Alright, Hurry up and carry out the mission,¡± Su Chen said somewhat helplessly.


    The two of them soon arrived at the hull.


    Naturally, they could not rely only on the weak light source of the glow stick to carry out the collection mission. One of the workers took out a strong light fixture from the storage box on his back.


    As the strong light was lit up, the entire hall slowly appeared in front of everyone.


    In the hall, the densely packed stands were filled with bodies. Other than the hair that had fallen off, everything remained the same as when they were alive.


    Due to Gao Fei¡¯s reminder, Su Chen did not approach rashly. Instead, he used the glow stick in his hand to observe the details of the body.


    The eye sockets were empty.


    The skin hadpletely weathered and turned gray. It was wrapped around the skeleton, as if it would shatter at the slightest touch.


    All the bodies remained in the posture of thest second of their lives.


    Some were hugging each other, some were kneeling and praying, some were talking, and some were raising one hand as if they were drinking a ss of red wine¡­


    Su Chen found it hard to imagine that such an image of all living things would appear in this manner.


    When that Origin Beast evolved, did it not alert these people?


    ¡°What are you doing?¡±


    Just as Su Chen was deep in thought, Gu Xin¡¯s low voice entered his ears.


    He turned around and saw that Gu Xin seemed to have had an argument with the worker who mocked the two of them.


    The worker was walking toward a body.


    ¡°Are you crazy? Didn¡¯t you hear Captain Gao Fei say to stay away from these bodies?¡± Gu Xin continued.


    ¡°What do you know, you newbie! We workers work so hard to move materials, so can the contribution points we get be one-tenth of the Evolvers?¡±


    When the worker said this, he nced guiltily at the female fighter who was still standing guard at the alloy door.


    Seeing that the other party did not notice him, he continued, ¡°Those who are able to board this kind of spaceship are either rich or noble in the Old World. They can have a lot of good things with them!


    ¡°Those things are worth a lot of contribution points in the ck market! If you want to take them, go find a ce. If you don¡¯t take them, don¡¯t bother me!


    ¡°These bodies are just dead people. I really don¡¯t know what you newbies are afraid of.¡±


    ¡°Bah!¡± After saying that, he spat on a body next to him.


    ¡°You¡­¡± Gu Xin wanted to say something, but Su Chen raised his hand and stopped him.


    This kind of person would not listen to advice. Even Gao Fei¡¯s words were useless. How could he expect that person to listen to them?


    Thus, under the gaze of the two, the worker tiptoed toward a body. That was the target he had been eyeing for a long time.


    ¡°These people from the Old World really know how to f*cking enjoy themselves. I wonder what¡¯s the use of these fancy things?¡±


    The worker muttered.


    His target was a pair of jade bracelets. Even after years of erosion, they still shone.


    Although he did not understand the use of these things, it was enough to know that these things could be exchanged for contribution points in the ck market!


    The worker picked up a sharp knife and started to slice open the body. It seemed that this was not the first time he had done this.


    The knife continued to cut the wrist of the body, and countless pieces of debris fell down. The greed in his eyes became more and more serious.


    Su Chen was about to leave and do his work when he suddenly realized something was wrong.


    That body¡­ seemed to be moving?


    His pupils constricted. He was sure that he was not mistaken. The abdomen of the body was trembling slightly, and the gray debris on the surface of the body kept falling.


    The worker was still staring at the jade bracelet with a burning gaze. He did not notice the strange movement of the body at all!

 Chapter 4

    Chapter 4: Petrified Centipede


    <strong>Trantor: </strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion  <strong>Editor: </strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion


    ¡°Be careful!¡±


    Just as Su Chen was sure that he had not seen wrongly, he hurriedly spoke.


    ¡°I say, are you two rookies bored?¡± The worker turned his head impatiently.


    At that moment, a gray shadow shot out from the abdomen of the worker¡¯s body.


    ¡°F*ck! What the hell was that?!¡± The worker felt a sharp pain in his lower body and immediately lowered his head to look.


    After the gray shadow rushed toward the worker, it immediately grabbed his waist and quickly climbed onto his back.


    At this time, Su Chen finally saw what that thing looked like.


    It was clearly an arthropod that looked like a centipede!


    Its body was about 50 centimeters long, and its hundreds of slender limbs were almost as long as its body. As it climbed, it kept dancing..


    The sharp limbs passed through his clothes and directly hooked onto his flesh.


    ¡°F*ck! Get lost!¡± The worker was shocked by this sudden change. He kept waving his hands, trying to get the monster off his body.


    However, the monster kept waving its limbs, moving back and forth on his body, so that the worker could not touch it at all.


    Before he could react, the disgusting-looking arthropod had already climbed up to his neck!


    Su Chen picked up the weapon in his hand and kept aiming at the monster that was moving up and down, but he still could not find the opportunity to shoot!


    Out of fear, the monster kept moving in a flurry, leaving Su Chen with no way to attack.


    ¡°That¡¯s a petrified centipede! Be careful!¡±


    At this moment, the femalebat member was also attracted by themotion and quickly ran over!


    ¡°Save me! Save me!¡± The worker finally saw the petrified centipede crawling around on his body and shouted at the femalebat member in intense fear.


    ¡°Don¡¯t move!¡± Thebat member shouted at the worker.


    The staff member seemed to have grabbed onto thest straw of hope. Under such extreme fear, she actually stood still for an instant!


    At the same time, under Su Chen¡¯s shocked gaze, the femalebat member quickly took out an exquisite silver pistol from her waist. Without aiming, she fired at the worker!


    ¡°Bang!¡±


    A bullet emitting blue mes shot out from the barrel of the pistol, instantly hitting the petrified centipede that was running around!


    Only Su Chen could see this shot clearly!


    After the bullet was fired, it seemed to have slightly changed its angle before urately hitting the petrified centipede.


    This was probably the special ability of this femalebat member!


    That bullet that was emitting blue mes was definitely not simple!


    No wonder he did not see this femalebat member carrying a cold weapon before. Apparentlythat was the reason.


    Seeing the petrified centipede crawling on his body being sent flying, the worker instantly heaved a sigh of relief.


    Then, he heavily stomped on the petrified centipede on the ground!


    ¡°F*ck you, you scared me to death!¡±


    At this moment, the petrified centipede on the ground bounced up again and climbed up the worker¡¯s pants!


    At this moment, the worker faced the female fighter, and the petrified centipede had climbed onto his back!


    ¡°Save¡­¡± This time, the worker did not finish his sentence.


    Under everyone¡¯s shocked gaze, the front leg of the petrified centipede stabbed into the neck of the worker like lightning, interrupting hisst sentence.


    ¡°Whoosh!¡±


    At this moment, the sound of a sword being unsheathed rang out, and the petrified centipede broke into two.


    ¡°Captain Gao Fei¡­¡±


    Seeing Gao Fei approach, Gu Xin seemed to want to say something, but Gao Fei raised his hand and interrupted him.


    At this moment, the petrified centipede, which was only left with half of its body, was still firmly clutching onto the worker¡¯s neck.


    ¡°Uh¡­ Hehe¡­ Hahahaha!!!¡±


    The worker¡¯s pupils rapidly dted, and savage red blood vessels continuously spread out from the wound. In just a few seconds, they had already covered his face.


    ¡°Uh¡­ contribution points¡­ bracelet¡­ hahaha!¡±


    Everyone frowned as they looked at the worker who seemed to have gone mad.


    ¡°God¡­ I¡¯ming¡­¡±


    The worker mumbled indistinctly as he crazily ran in the direction where Gao Fei and Mark had returned.


    Along the way, countless bodies were smashed by his body, and smoke and dust flew everywhere!


    He stumbled as he ran toward that direction.


    ¡°Bang!¡±


    Su Chen¡¯s consciousness was pulled back by the loud gunshot.


    He looked down and saw the gun hanging on his chest. The muzzle of the gun was emitting hot air.


    In the distance, a hideous bloody hole appeared at the back of the worker¡¯s head, and he fell to the ground unwillingly.


    It was Gao Fei who shot the worker dead.


    ¡°It seems to be some kind of neurotoxin. The source is still unknown.¡± Gao Fei seemed to be talking to himself, but also seemed to be answering everyone¡¯s doubts.


    ¡°Captain Gao, the petrified centipede didn¡¯t seem to have this ability,¡± Mark said with a frown.


    ¡°Did you hear what he said just now before he died?¡± Gao Fei did not answer Mark¡¯s question, but asked in return.


    Su Chen muttered, ¡°It seems like¡­ he was talking about¡­ God?¡±


    Although the worker was mumbling like he was mentally ill, Su Chen still heard the word clearly.


    ¡°That¡¯s right, it¡¯s very likely that this has something to do with the ¡®thing¡¯ that Mark and I saw just now.¡±


    After saying that, Gao Fei¡¯s gaze looked in the direction where the two had returned.


    This wastnd seemed to have undergone some strange changes unknowingly.


    ¡°Rustle, rustle, rustle.¡±


    A rustling sound entered everyone¡¯s ears.


    This sound was like the sound of tens of thousands of feet rubbing against the ground!


    There was no need to guess this sound!


    It was definitely rted to the petrified centipede that had just appeared!


    Su Chen raised his head and scanned the surroundings of the hall. Those rustling sounds came from above the hall!


    Suddenly, his eyes focused. The walls around the hall were also covered with venttion pipes!


    Not only that, but there was also a gray figure trembling on the wreckage of the body that had been smashed by the worker!


    ¡°This is going to be a bit troublesome.¡± Although there was still a smile at the corner of his mouth, Mark¡¯s eyes were unprecedentedly solemn!


    The stench that had previously filled the tunnel became even stronger.


    Thousands of petrified centipedes continued to crawl out from the venttion ducts!


    The insect tide was about to arrive!

    Chapter 5: Danger!


    <strong>Trantor: </strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion  <strong>Editor: </strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion


    ¡°Get ready for battle!


    ¡°You all saw what happened to that worker just now. Don¡¯t let this damn thing get close to you!¡±


    Gao Fei gave a few instructions and pulled out his long knife.


    The workers also picked up their guns.


    Fortunately, for small mutated creatures like petrified centipedes, the guns in their hands still had a certain degree of lethality.


    The nine workers and three members of thebat team were tightly gathered together, vigntly watching the centipedes that wereing from all directions.


    ¡°You guys just pay attention to the back. Leave this side to Mark and I.¡±


    Gao Fei shouted in a low voice.


    In essence, his special ability was a long-range special ability. However, with Gao Fei¡¯s current strength, the gale de aura could only carry out mid-to-close range attacks.


    The bullets fired by the workers would instead affect his performance.


    As such, Gao Fei and Mark, two closebat Evolvers, were in charge of one side of the insect tide.


    As for Su Chen and the others, including the female fighter, they were in charge of the other side.


    ¡°Phew, it¡¯s about time to exercise properly.¡± Mark chuckled.


    He pressed the pair of bracers on his arms. In an instant, the pair of bracers transformed and reassembled in a short period of time. A pair of gloves filled with a sense of technology appeared in Mark¡¯s hands.


    Under the astonished gazes of the workers, ayer of carapace gradually appeared on the surface of Mark¡¯s body, and he brazenly charged toward the swarm of insects.


    Countless petrified centipedes saw that there were fearless humans charging toward them, and they immediately swarmed toward Mark¡¯s side.


    ¡°Ding!¡±


    ¡°Ding!¡±


    ¡°Ding!¡±


    The sharp ws pierced into the scales on Mark¡¯s body, and actually emitted a metallic sound!


    Mark¡¯s powerful defense made the insect tide unable to attack.


    However, to the insect tide, Mark was like a merciless meat grinder. Every petrified centipede that got close to mark was smashed into meat paste by that pair of powerful iron fists.


    A nauseating stench came from Mark¡¯s battle circle.


    Su Chen had never expected that the seemingly gentle and refined Mark would possess such a violent superpower!


    The image of the schrly young man with a ponytail and a smile on his face instantly copsed.


    Just as Mark was harvesting the life of the centipede swarm, Gao Fei also moved!


    Gao Fei swept across, and a crescent-shaped de aura instantly swept toward the swarm of insects.


    ¡°Dang!¡±


    The crescent-shaped de aura even covered Mark!


    ¡°Hiss!¡±


    Mark, who was ughtering the insect swarm, sucked in a breath of cold air!


    ¡°Captain! Can¡¯t you be a little gentler!¡± He turned around and shouted, feeling a little wronged.


    Although that attack did not break through Mark¡¯s defense, he still felt a wave of pain.


    ¡°Sorry to trouble you, I¡¯ve already withdrawn quite a bit of strength.¡±


    Gao Fei replied indifferently. He naturally knew the level of Mark¡¯s defense.


    This kind ofrge-scale attack was the fastest way to ughter the insect swarm!


    Just a sword Qi had killed more than half of the insect swarm in that direction, even though there was still an endless stream of insects pouring out.


    However, who said that sword Qi could not be used continuously?


    After the initial shock, everyone, including Su Chen, quickly entered battle mode.


    ¡°Da!¡±


    ¡°Da!¡±


    ¡°Da!¡±


    ¡­


    Several guns spewed out mes, and the hail of bullets instantly rained down on the swarm of insects!


    The workers coordinated in an orderly manner and split into two groups. The continuous firepower covered the swarm of insects and blocked the oing swarm of insects.


    A petrified centipede was extremely lucky to dodge the bullets that shot in all directions, and it pounced toward Gu Xin¡¯s buttocks!


    ¡°Da!¡± With a soft sound, the petrified centipede¡¯s good luck ended and it was sent flying with a single shot!


    ¡°Thank¡­ thank you.¡±


    Gu Xin looked at the direction where the petrified centipede fell with lingering fear. When he thought of the miserable state of the worker just now, he felt a chill from his anus!


    Su Chen!


    He set the automatic rifle to single shot mode and kept shooting to kill the fish that escaped the!


    ¡°Da, da, da, da!¡±


    In the pouring rain of bullets, the sound of gunfire rang out one after another, continuously repelling the petrified centipede that had broken through the line of fire.


    In the midst of the dense gunfire, a unique rhythm was formed!


    It seemed to be an extremely rhythmic ssical movement!


    Among the workers, someone said softly, ¡°Wan Ling seem to be getting serious.¡±


    Su Chen followed his line of sight and found that the femalebatant had ced the pistol in her hand into the gun holster on her thigh.


    Then, her hands touched her back.


    On Wan Ling¡¯s back, there was a rectangr piece of metal covered withplicated patterns.


    Under Su Chen¡¯s shocked gaze, the rectangr piece of metal was quickly assembled in Wan Ling¡¯s hand. A few secondster, a heavy machine gun with a strange shape appeared in her hand.


    Su Chen was a little shocked. Just by looking at the heavy machine gun, a terrifying sense of oppression assaulted her.


    Wan Ling did not say any more nonsense, and a dark blue me poured out!


    In an instant, the insect tide in front of her suffered heavy casualties.


    ¡°This gun doesn¡¯t seem to require ammunition.¡±


    Su Chen¡¯s pupils constricted, instantly seeing the strength of this machine gun.


    Wan Ling was most likely an Evolver that focused on spirit energy!


    That bullet that was emitting a faint blue me should be a manifestation of spirit energy, while that heavy machine gun with a strange shape was a weapon that was tailor-made.


    Just a single encounter had allowed Su Chen to deeply feel the difference between an Evolver and an ordinary person.


    This increased Su Chen¡¯s desire to be stronger!


    After Wan Ling became serious, the pressure on the nine employees lessened.


    ¡®With such a powerful team, it would be difficult for them to have a high casualty rate.¡¯


    Su Chen thought helplessly.


    However, in the next moment, something unexpected happened!


    Bang!


    With a crisp sound, a bullet hit the shell of a petrified centipede, sending out an eye-catching spark!


    The stray bullet flew toward a direction that everyone deliberately avoided and a strong light appeared!


    ¡°Pa!¡±


    With a crisp sound, the stray bullet coincidentally hit the only light source in this space!


    In an instant, darkness was like a tide, quickly enveloping the hall!


    Only the area covered by hot fire was left, and the muzzle of the gun was constantly emitting mes!


    ¡°Glow sticks!¡±


    Gao Fei¡¯s calm voice was heard.


    Under the suppression of Wan Ling¡¯s spirit fire, the workers quickly took out the glow sticks from their equipment bags.


    Many glow sticks lit up at the same time.


    However, the soft light from the glow sticks seemed to be insignificant in this hall.


    The petrified centipedes were originally ck-gray carapaces. In addition to the battle just now, there were less than ten of them in the hall. The scattered fragments of the carapace became the best camouge for the petrified centipedes!


    In the dim light, Gao Fei¡¯s expression was solemn. To him and Mark, these petrified centipedes were not much of a threat.


    However, to the others, not to mention ordinary workers, but even to Wan Ling they might be very dangerous!


    After pondering for a few seconds, Gao Fei said, ¡°Mark, cover me!


    ¡°The rest of you, and Wan Ling, cover me. Go to the cabin that I explored with Mark! That is themand room. There are only three vents!¡±


    ¡°Alright, Captain!¡± Mark replied with a smile, but his voice sounded a little tired.


    After using his superpower for a long time, even an Evolver would not be able to handle it!

 Chapter 6

    Chapter 6: Arriving at the Command Cabin


    <strong>Trantor: </strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion  <strong>Editor: </strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion


    Under the cover of Wan Ling¡¯s powerful firepower, Su Chen and the others immediately ran in the direction of themand cabin.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go!¡±


    While shouting, Su Chen took out a few glow sticks from his backpack and threw along the retreat route of the group.


    At this time, there was no point to save resources!


    The dense swarm of insects blocked the retreat route of the group.


    Without the presence of lighting equipment, no matter how powerful Wan Ling¡¯s firepower was, it would definitely have a blind spot!


    As an Evolver, Wan Ling did not need ammunition to attack, but it did not mean that her spiritual power was unlimited!


    Although the light from the glow sticks was far inferior to the strong light, under such circumstances, they did not have a better idea.


    Su Chen took a deep look at the direction where Mark and Gao Fei were.


    The blue fist wind and the silvery-white de light kept shing in the middle of the swarm of insects. However, Su Chen could clearly see that the frequency of their attacks was not as fast as before!


    Even powerful Evolvers would definitely be exhausted when facing this endless swarm of insects.


    The only thing Su Chen and the others could do was to evacuate to themand cabin as soon as possible to buy them time to escape!


    ¡°Damn it, it¡¯s all that idiot¡¯s fault!¡± Gu Xin roared angrily.


    The fire in his hands did not stop, and he was helping Wan Ling clear out the insects on the retreat route.


    Gu Xin¡¯s round face kept trembling under the huge recoil of the gun, and his eyes were bloodshot, afraid that the petrified centipede would break through the line of fire in the blink of an eye.


    While Su Chen retreated with the team, he was still shooting at the petrified centipede hiding in the shadows at a steady pace. Among the people present, only his eyesight could do this.


    Wan Ling had clearly seen Su Chen¡¯s precise and calm marksmanship. When he was reloading, she had deliberately protected him in the middle of the group.


    When Su Chen was shooting at the bat-type Origin Beast, he had attracted Wan Ling¡¯s attention. In such a short period of time, it was already difficult to use a gun to urately block the Origin Beast¡¯s attack.


    This required an extremely strong dynamic vision, a calm state of mind, and an extremely fast reaction speed. Su Chen, a rookie, was able to do this, which was really beyond her expectations.


    Moreover, Su Chen¡¯s current identity was that of an employee.


    Out of the three battle squads, only Wan Ling used a long-range weapon. Thus, she was the first to notice Su Chen¡¯s talent.


    If helping Gao Fei kill the bat-type Origin Beast was due to luck, then under such a dangerous situation, Su Chen was still able to perform steadily. Clearly, it was not something that luck could exin clearly.


    ¡°Ah!¡±


    Just as they were about to reach the door of themand cabin, a scream was heard!


    Everyone turned around and saw a worker being ambushed by a petrified centipede hiding in the shadow of its shell!


    Far away from the previous battle, most of its shell was still intact.


    The petrified centipede was hiding in the blind spot of everyone¡¯s vision!


    The worker only felt a chill on the back of his neck!


    The petrified centipede¡¯s poisonous mouthpart had already pierced into his neck.


    This caused him to pause in his retreat. Although it was only a few seconds, he had already left the group.


    ¡°Old Wang!¡±


    An employee who knew him spoke in grief and indignation. He wanted to rush forward and pull him out of the group of petrified centipedes.


    ¡°Stop!¡± Wan Ling said anxiously. If someone still left the group at this time, then no one would be able to leave today!


    In just a few short seconds, several petrified centipedes had already climbed onto the worker¡¯s body!


    ¡°Da! Da! Da!¡± Even if Wan Ling quickly cleaned up the petrified centipedes beside the worker¡¯s feet, she was unable to stop his life from gradually fading away.


    The worker known as Old Wang used all his strength in the group of centipedes. He raised his gun and pointed it at his chin.


    ¡°Click.¡± There were no bullets in the gun.


    When Old Wang realized this, his heart was filled with despair!


    The nerve venom of the petrified centipede had slowly eroded his mind. At the same time, the other centipedes that climbed onto his body began to enjoy the feast in front of them impatiently.


    At thest moment, Old Wang looked in the direction of everyone with great difficulty. He used thest bit of strength in his body and squeezed out a sentence from his throat, ¡°Kill¡­ kill me!¡±


    Wan Ling looked at Old Wang and a hint of struggle shed in her eyes. At this moment.


    ¡°Bang!¡± A gunshot came from her side.


    Just a minute ago, this familiar body was still harvesting the petrified centipede to protect the lives of her teammates.


    This time, the gunshot freed his teammates.


    Su Chen looked in Old Wang¡¯s direction. Old Wang slowly fell to the ground with a look of relief on his face.


    ¡°F*ck you, you b*stards, die for me!¡±


    The moment Old Wang fell, the employee who was familiar with him brazenly rushed out from the crowd.


    Crack!


    A crisp sound rang out!


    ¡°Captain Gao Fei! Let¡¯s go!¡±


    Mark, who had been attracted by themotion, was about to explode when he saw this scene!


    With the help of the faint fluorescent light, he could clearly see what the employee was holding. It was a high explosive grenade!


    Following that, he felt a huge forceing from his lower back!


    ¡°Bang!¡± Gao Fei kicked outward, and Mark¡¯s body shot toward themand cabin like a cannonball.


    Soon after,Gao Fei¡¯s figure seemed to turn into a silver light. The gale power covered his body, and he instantly elerated toward Su Chen and the others.


    At this moment, even Su Chen could not see Gao Fei¡¯s figure clearly.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go!¡±


    Just when everyone was stunned, Wan Ling¡¯s voice came from behind.


    They turned their heads and saw that Wan Ling had already cleared all the petrified centipedes in front of them and stood in front of themand cabin¡¯s door. There was still some time before the petrified centipedes surged out again.


    Under the threat of fear, everyone rushed toward themand cabin.


    Su Chen followed the steps of the workers and quickly entered themand cabin!


    ¡°F*ck!¡±


    Before he could catch his breath, Su Chen heard a scream beside him. He immediately raised his gun and aimed in the direction of the scream.


    He saw Gu Xin being pressed down by Mark who was flying toward him.


    The hard shell on Mark¡¯s body had not faded yet, causing Gu Xin to scream in pain.


    Afternding, Mark immediately got up and ignored Gu Xin who was screaming in pain. He ran toward the alloy door of themand cabin.


    ¡°Fortunately, the circuit here was connected!¡±


    Just a few minutes ago, when he and Gao Fei arrived at themand cabin, they tried to connect the circuit. However, they did not expect it to be useful now!


    Under Mark¡¯s quick operation, the giant alloy door of themand cabin was slowly closing!


    Just as the giant alloy door was about topletely close, a figure was thrown into the cabin.


    Then, Gao Fei used a slide shovel and finally entered the giant alloy door the moment it was about topletely close.


    ¡°Boom!¡±


    A loud sound was heard, and the entire spaceship seemed to tremble a little!


    Su Chen and the others covered their eardrums in pain and squatted on the ground.


    A buzzing sound filled his mind.


    Su Chen braced himself and stood up with great difficulty under the strong dizziness. He nced at the giant alloy door.


    It was intact!


    Only then did he let out a sigh of relief. He was finally safe.

 Chapter 7

    Chapter 7: Origin Stone


    <strong>Trantor: </strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion  <strong>Editor: </strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion


    The panting Su Chen fell to the ground.


    He heard Gao Fei¡¯s familiar voice, ¡°Blood clotting spray and bandages.¡±


    Su Chen looked in the direction that Gao Fei was pointing at.


    The person who had been thrown into the door was the worker holding a high explosive grenade.


    He was lying on the ground with his wrist cut off. It was probably Gao Fei¡¯s hand.


    Seeing this, Su Chen took out a tool from the storage box behind him and treated the employee¡¯s wound.


    The employee turned his head and saw Su Chen. He said in a low voice, ¡°Thank you.¡±


    It was unknown whether it was because Su Chen had helped him bandage his wound or because of the shot that Su Chen had given Old Wang.


    Su Chen did not answer.


    He only finished bandaging his wound silently and then looked at his surroundings.


    The air vent above had already been blocked by Wan Ling, who had entered the cabin first. She was leaning against the wall to rest.


    Gu Xin frowned and rubbed his lower back. He had unknowingly stuffed apressed biscuit into his mouth and was chewing it inrge mouthfuls.


    The other employees also scattered and sat on the ground, panting.


    Markined and said, ¡°Captain¡­ you almost couldn¡¯t get in just now. You said you saved him¡­¡±


    Gao Fei red at him, and he immediately swallowed the second half of his sentence.


    He hesitated for a moment and did not speak again.


    In just a few minutes, two of his teammates had died. This kind of thing was very normal in the wastnd.


    If it was not for Gao Fei, more people would have died.


    At the very least, the reason Su Chen and the others were able to sit in themand room and rest while panting was because of Gao Fei.


    Gao Fei said, ¡°Let¡¯s get to work. There are a lot of Origin Stones here.¡±


    Themand room was not big. A few bodies that looked like they were escaping approached the giant alloy door.


    This time, while they were talking, Gao Fei had already checked these bodies. There were no petrified centipedes hidden inside.


    ¡°Pa!¡± With a light sound, the dim lights in themand room lit up.


    Mark¡¯s voice sounded, ¡°I¡¯ve connected the energy here, but there¡¯s not much energy left. I can only adjust the brightness to this level.¡±


    At this time, everyone began to observe everything in this cabin.


    Themand room was only one-fifth of the size of the hall. With a nce, they could roughly see the environment inside.


    What was worth noting was that on the right side of themand cabin, there was a group of skeletons formed by a pile of shells.


    Su Chen looked carefully and saw dozens of bodies struggling in pain. These bodies should be the crew members of this civilian spaceship.


    Above this group of skeletons, there was a bewitching flower that was slowly swaying.


    The scarlet petals seemed to be breathing as they swayed gently.


    The Origin Stone crystals were scattered around the pile of bones.


    ¡°This is the ¡®thing¡¯ that Mark and I discovered earlier.¡± Gao Fei looked at the strange nt with a serious expression.


    ¡°Put on your gas masks and start collecting Origin Stones. You don¡¯t have to get too close to the flower.¡±


    Although the root of the nt was small and looked like it could be broken with one cut, Gao Fei did not act rashly.


    This nt seemed to have a strange magic power that attracted people to get closer. ording to Gao Fei¡¯s spection, this should be caused by the pheromones emitted by this nt.


    In short, stay away from this nt and leave after collecting the necessary materials.


    Hearing Gao Fei¡¯s words, everyone stood up. This time, no one disobeyed Gao Fei¡¯s order. They put on their gas masks obediently and began to collect the Origin Stones in themand cabin.


    Su Chen stood up and looked at the hall through the observation window of the giant alloy door and the glow sticks scattered outside.


    After the explosion of the high-explosive grenade, the body that was originally standing in the hall had beenpletely destroyed. Broken limbs were scattered on the ground. asionally, one or two petrified centipedes could be seen crawling through the remains of the body.


    Detonating the high-explosive grenade in such a narrow space did not kill all of those petrified centipedes.


    Su Chen frowned. The road that they came from had already copsed during the explosion. This meant that after collecting the supplies, they could not return the way they came from.


    However, they did not have to worry too much about this. In this spaceship, there were all kinds of passageways. Thismand room alone had three exits.


    They would not be trapped here.


    With this thought in mind, Su Chen left the observation entrance. He turned around and put on his gas mask. He began to collect the Origin Stones in themand room.


    At this time, the workers who had lost one of their hands had also gotten up from the ground and started to prepare for work. The separation of life and death in the wastnd was already amon urrence.


    After experiencing the initial emotional breakdown, there was no more time for the living to grieve.


    Mark and the other two workers were investigating and recording the strange nt.


    Before this operation, no team had brought back a report that matched the nt in front of them.


    These strange nts seemed to have covered the wastnd overnight.


    When Su Chen walked toward the Origin Stone crystal, she saw Gu Xin staring nkly at a dead petrified centipede.


    ¡°Let¡¯s go. These damn things aren¡¯t too difficult to deal with. At least the weapons we have are useful against them.¡±


    He consoled Gu Xin. Su Chen felt that Gu Xin¡¯s mentality had not recovered from the battle just now.


    Gu Xin turned his head with a serious expression and looked at Su Chen. ¡°Tell me, can we eat this thing after we cut it off?¡±


    Su Chen was speechless.


    Ignoring Gu Xin, who was acting up, Su Chen began to collect the Origin Stones on the ground.


    These Origin Stones were red in color, simr to the one Gao Fei had obtained previously. After being processed by the base¡¯s research department, they could be converted into energy for daily use.


    All the facilities in the base were powered by this energy.


    This included the vehicles that the group rode on when they were on missions.


    Up until now, the humans had yet to thoroughly study the source of the Origin Stones. This strange ore seemed to have appeared on the surface together with the Origin Beasts.


    It was also at that time that the humans had evolved.


    Su Chen shook his head and cast away the thoughts in his mind.


    These things were not his to worry about.


    Origin Stones were almost all standard cubic ores. There was only a slight difference in size between the individuals.


    The storage box had a custom-made storage space that could store more Origin Stones under the same circumstances.


    This was also the reason why even the exploration team¡¯s staff needed gene reagents to strengthen their bodies. An ordinary person would not be able to carry this storage box with one cubic meter of memory for a long distance.


    ¡°Everyone, be on alert.¡±


    While everyone was busy, Wan Ling¡¯s voice sounded.


    Su Chen turned around and saw Wan Ling carefully crawling on top of the giant alloy door. Her brows were tightly furrowed, and her ears were tightly pressed against the giant door, as if she was listening for some movement.


    Seeing this, Su Chen also lightly leaned on the ground and pressed his ears close to it.


    ¡°Dong!¡±


    ¡°Dong!¡±


    ¡°Dong!¡±


    ¡­


    A rhythmic sound was heard, and the dust on the ground trembled slightly.


    ¡°Looks like that guy hasn¡¯t left yet.¡±


    Gao Fei said indifferently and pulled out his long ck knife.


    Su Chen¡¯s pupils contracted. The guy that Gao Fei mentioned was probably the reason why these bodies were formed..


    That Origin Beast evolved in the spaceship!

    ¡°How are you guys doing?¡±


    Gao Fei asked.


    ¡°Captain, we¡¯ve gathered enough information,¡± Mark answered first.


    He and the two workers had already gathered all the information about that strange nt.


    After Mark activated his superpower, he even collected a drop of the nt¡¯s juice sample. The rest of the work was left to the research center.


    As for the workers, including Su Chen, they had almost collected all the Origin Stones.


    No one went to collect the Origin Stones near the strange nt. If they caused any trouble at this time, they would be courting death.


    ¡°Pack up and prepare to evacuate..¡±


    ¡°Mark, set an evacuation route. Hurry up. Wan Ling, you and I will cover the rear this time.¡±


    As soon as Gao Fei finished speaking, Mark immediately said unwillingly, ¡°Captain! I can also cover the rear with you!¡±


    ¡°Forget it. You just killed the petrified centipedes. With your level, how long can your superpowerst?¡± Gao Fei continued, ¡°Don¡¯t be long-winded. Hurry up and set an evacuation route!¡±


    ¡°Okay!¡± Knowing that his body was already exhausted, Mark no longer hesitated. He quickly searched for an evacuation route using the instrument in his hand.


    There were three exits, with one connected to the main hall of the spaceship, so there were only two left!


    Mark immediately rushed to the front of one of the exits and suddenly discovered that the giant alloy door had been destroyed.


    However, the passage behind the giant door had already copsed and could not be passed through. This should have been caused by the Origin Beast when it left themand cabin!


    ¡°It¡¯s alright!¡± As Mark¡¯s gaze looked in the opposite direction, the other exit was intact.


    ¡°There¡¯s a path here, follow me!¡±


    As Mark¡¯s voice fell, many workers, including Su Chen, immediately moved toward the exit.


    In just a few seconds, the sound had already approached infinitely!


    Even if their ears were not stuck to the ground, everyone could clearly hear the heavy footsteps!


    Dong!


    Dong!


    Dong!


    The sound of the approaching footsteps was like a warning bell ringing in front of everyone!


    This made their hands move faster.


    Through the narrow window, Su Chen could vaguely see a pair of golden horns. Horns? They appeared in the shadow of the spaceship¡¯s hall.


    ¡°Moo!¡±


    With a loud roar, dust surged!


    This monster finally revealed its true appearance under the glow sticks scattered in the hall!


    A giant bull that was ten meters tall appeared in everyone¡¯s sight!


    Its tall head seemed to be about to reach the ceiling of the hall, and its golden horns seemed to be about to pierce through the alloy wall!


    ¡°F*ck¡­ that gap isn¡¯t that big!¡± Mark subconsciously eximed.


    Judging from the gap at the other end of the cabin, this Origin Beast was definitely not more than five meters in size.


    However, judging from the current situation, this Origin Beast might have evolved again!


    ¡°This one is a D-rank Origin Beast.¡±


    Gao Fei looked at the detector on his wrist and said.


    Hearing this, Su Chen instantly thought of the bat-type Origin Beast that Gao Fei had killed previously. That mutated bat was only the lowest grade, a F-rank Origin Beast, and even ordinary guns could not harm it.


    Not to mention, this D-rank bull-type Origin Beast. Looking at the thick skin of this Origin Beast, a bullet would probably be like scratching an itch!


    In this battle, it would probably be very difficult for others to help.


    When the giant bull outside the door saw the petrified centipedes, it seemed to have discovered some kind of delicacy. It casually stepped on a few of them and swallowed them with itsrge tongue.


    It was very obvious that this cow was not to be trifled with!


    Seeing this scene, the corner of Su Chen¡¯s mouth curled. He said to Gu Xin beside him, ¡°This cow¡¯s taste is simr to yours. Why don¡¯t you go up and identify a rtive?¡±


    ¡°Forget it. I realized that the petrified centipede probably doesn¡¯t have anything good to eat. At least in the eyes of this bull, it probably doesn¡¯t taste as good as us.¡± When Gu Xin said this, his eyes revealed fear.


    Seeing Gu Xin like this, Su Chen looked toward the direction of the hall and saw the huge bull sniffing the ground a few times.


    It seemed to have smelled the scent of a living creature.


    The huge head immediately looked toward themand cabin!


    Along with the tremors caused by the huge bull stomping on the ground, the terrifying figure that was ten meters tall lowered its head and rushed toward themand cabin!


    ¡°Boom!¡±


    With a loud sound, the entiremand cabin shook violently!


    Su Chen almost fell to the ground. Luckily, Gu Xin helped him up.


    The giant bull seemed to have discovered the people hiding in the cabin. Its sharp horn was like a siege pir as it crashed into the giant alloy door with tremendous force!


    The giant alloy door, which was as thick as 30 centimeters, was like an iron sheet under the attack of the giant bull. With just one strike, it had already broken through the giant door!


    After the giant bull broke the door open, it was not in a hurry to enter. From the looks of it, it seemed to have sensed the dangerous aura from the man holding the ck knife who was guarding the cabin door.


    If it rushed in rashly, it was likely that the time for it to get stuck at the cabin door was enough for the man to behead it!


    Therefore, the giant bull returned to the hall slowly. Its feet kept rubbing against the ground, umting strength for its next attack!


    Although the giant bull had not attacked again,the petrified centipede had already entered themand cabin through the gap!


    The huge bull had created a gap that was several meters wide and was about to tear the huge alloy door apart!


    The petrified centipedes rushed in through the gap like a tidal wave.


    ¡°Da! Da! Da!¡±


    Seeing the petrified centipedes rush in again, Wan Ling was the first to open fire!


    As if it had consumed too much energy, Wan Ling did not use the strange heavy machine gun this time.


    Seeing this, the workers also took out their guns and started to build a defensive line.


    ¡°Give me one more minute!¡±


    Mark stood behind the workers and stared at the instrument in his hand.


    Since the power in themand room was connected, Mark only needed to crack the ship¡¯s central control system to get the map of the ship.


    Using this, he could deduce the escape route.


    He could not let Gao Fei hack his way out, right? His superpower was not unlimited!


    He did not know what kind of danger he would encounter along the way. Once the crumbling wreckage of the spaceshippletely copsed, other than Gao Fei and Mark, even all the other evolved beings would probably die here.


    Fortunately, this time, the petrified centipedes could only enter through a gap, which greatly reduced the pressure on the workers.


    They did not need to worry about the petrified centipedes that might appear from all directions. As such, the stress was greatly reduced!


    The only thing they needed to be careful of now was when the next attack of the giant bull woulde!

    Chapter 9: Seeking Riches Through Danger!


    <strong>Trantor: </strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion  <strong>Editor: </strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion


    The group of people with guns were constantly sweeping away the petrified centipedes that had entered themand cabin.


    The petrified centipedes in the spaceship¡¯s cabin seemed to be endless as they continuously surged out.


    At this moment, there was a change in the giant bull in the hall!


    A circle of earthy yellow light gradually appeared on the surface of the giant bull¡¯s body.


    In just a few seconds, the muscles on the giant bull¡¯s body began to expand. The veins on its steel-like muscles could be clearly seen. A huge energy fluctuation appeared on the pair of golden horns!


    It seemed that it wouldunch a destructive attack in the next second!


    ¡°Moo!¡±


    A sky-rumbling roar appeared in this space. The giant bull stomped on the ground. At this moment, the wreckage of the spaceship let out a cracking sound that could not bear the heavy load!


    ¡°This is¡­. a superpower?¡± Gao Fei, who was standing in front of the door of the spaceship, murmured with a serious look in his eyes.


    The changes that the giant bull had undergone were very simr to how an Evolver used a superpower!


    ¡°Superpower! Can an Origin Beast also use a superpower?¡± Gu Xin was shocked when he heard Gao Fei¡¯s whisper.


    However, when he saw the changes that had happened to the giant bull¡¯s body, only superpowers could exin it.


    Seeing this scene, Gu Xin could not help but say angrily, ¡°What the f*ck is this world! Even an Origin Beast can use its special ability, and I¡¯m still a piece of trash!¡±


    When Mark heard Gu Xin¡¯s angry roar, he was also shocked. ¡°Isn¡¯t this Origin Beast a D-rank bull? Isn¡¯t its special ability something that only B-rank Origin Beasts can use?¡±


    After saying that, he looked at the standard detection bracers on his wrist. The energy fluctuations disyed on them showed that this Origin Beast was indeed at D-rank!


    This exploration mission had broken too much of theirmon sense!


    First, there were countless strange nts appearing on the surface, followed by rapidly evolving Origin Beasts. God knows what had happened on the wastnd during this period of time!


    The petrified centipede was originally one of the mostmon mutated creatures on the wastnd. Previously, it was very difficult for it to pose a threat to the exploration team.


    Now, the petrified centipede possessed neurotoxins that even Evolvers had to treat with caution.


    An ordinary D-rank Origin Beast could actually use its special ability!


    The evolution speed of the creatures on the surface seemed to be elerating!


    Originally, when facing this Origin Beast, Mark was not too nervous.


    In his opinion, the threat this Origin Beast posed was far inferior to the petrified centipedes.


    With Gao Fei¡¯s strength, it would not be a problem for him to fight against a D-rank Origin Beast, and he would not have to worry about the safety of his teammates like he did with the petrified centipedes.


    However, now, it seemed that things were not that simple!


    Thinking of this, Mark also quickly sped up his actions!


    Cracking progress 96%!


    Cracking progress 97%!


    ¡­


    Cracking progress 99%!


    Cracking progress 100%!!!


    ¡°It¡¯s done!¡± Following Mark¡¯s joyful shout, the giant alloy door behind everyone opened!


    At the same time, the bull¡¯s roar sounded again!


    ¡°Moo!¡±


    This time, the ground shook violently!


    A huge body rushed toward themand cabin!


    Boom!!!


    With a loud sound, the people who were preparing to evacuate were thrown to the ground by a huge energy fluctuation!


    This time, Su Chen crashed heavily into the hard alloy ground, causing his blood and Qi to surge!


    ¡°Cough¡­¡±


    With both hands supporting the ground, Su Chen struggled to prop himself up. He coughed lightly, and a few drops of bright red blood appeared on the ground!


    Suppressing his dizziness, Su Chen looked in the direction of the energy fluctuation.


    The long ck de and the pair of hard horns had already collided!


    Just this attack alone had caused Su Chen to suffer internal injuries from the energy fluctuation. Although it was not serious, it also proved that this battle was not something they could interfere in!


    However, the most terrifying thing was not the giant bull¡¯s attack.


    Instead, the giant alloy door that was originally connected to the hall had disappeared without a trace.


    A huge hole that was over ten meters wide appeared where the giant door was.


    An endless stream of petrified centipedes continuously surged into themand cabin!


    Everyone¡¯s consciousness seemed to have returned to the time when they were in the hall. However, this time, there was an additional D-rank Origin Beast that could use its special ability!


    ¡°You guys go first!¡±


    When Wan Ling saw the petrified centipedes swarming in, she no longer cared about the consumption of her spiritual power and once again fired her heavy machine gun!


    A dark blue hail of bullets was once again fired from the heavy machine gun!


    Under the powerful firepower, the attack of the petrified centipedes slowed down slightly!


    However, only Wan Ling knew that her current state could notst for long.


    Once her spiritual power waspletely exhausted, she might even faint on the spot in themand cabin filled with monsters!


    Even so, she gritted her teeth and blocked the attack of the petrified centipedes.


    There was no other reason.


    The man with the ck knife had not fallen yet, which was why Wan Ling was still confident.


    This time, Gao Fei would definitely be able to lead them out of the encirclement!


    Hearing Wan Ling¡¯s shout, Mark led the other workers and began to retreat.


    The energy in his body was almost depleted. Staying here would not be of much help to the two of them.


    Now, following Gao Fei¡¯s orders was the best choice.


    How could a mere D-rank Origin Beast pose a threat to their captain?!


    With this thought in mind, they had already retreated through the open hatch!


    ¡°Da! Da! Da!¡±


    Just as everyone was retreating, the orderly gunshots rang out once again.


    Wan Ling turned around and saw that it was Su Chen who had stayed behind.


    He did not say anything else. Everything was his own choice.


    Su Chen continued to fire his gun. One shot after another, he harvested the petrified centipedes that Wan Ling had missed.


    The storage box on his body had already been taken away by Gu Xin.


    Su Chen rxed his hands on the gun to gain stability. He stayed for a very simple reason.


    Su Chen had already seen that Wan Ling could not hold on for a long time, and Wan Ling would lose herbat effectiveness before going berserk to kill the bull.


    Petrified centipedes were also a threat to Gao Fei.


    After all, no matter how powerful Gao Fei¡¯s attacks were, his powers were not defensive.


    Gao Fei had saved him before, and this was the first reason Su Chen had stayed behind.


    As for the second reason, it was even simpler. Su Chen had taken a fancy to this D-rank Origin Beast¡¯s ability!


    Once he could sessfully fuse with this Origin Beast¡¯s soul, Su Chen¡¯sbat power would definitely soar!


    With this thought in mind, Su Chen did not follow Mark to retreat first.


    Although the danger left was enormous,wealth could be found in danger!

    Chapter 10: Marksmanship


    <strong>Trantor: </strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion  <strong>Editor: </strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion


    The standard firearm in Su Chen¡¯s hand could not maintain high-frequency fire coverage like Wan Ling¡¯s.


    He could only fully utilize the advantage of his powerful eyesight.


    He continuously fired at the petrified centipede that wasing from Wan Ling¡¯s attack range.


    Even so, it also reduced the pressure on Wan Ling.


    With Su Chen¡¯s help, Wan Ling only needed to maintain high-frequency fire coverage against the huge gap. She did not need to worry about the petrified centipede taking advantage of the gap.


    This worker¡¯sbat awareness was so strong!


    Even Wan Ling was secretly shocked when she sensed Su Chen¡¯s cooperation.


    Unfortunately, without awakening his special ability, he could not join the battle sequence. Otherwise, he would have been a good teammate..


    Wan Ling thought with some regret.


    It was not that people without special abilities had poorbat literacy. In the current wastnd era, without special abilities, it was very difficult to deal effective damage to Origin Beasts.


    It was not that there were no high-tech weapons, but if any weapon wanted to deal damage to Origin Beasts, the energy consumption was a huge problem. The base simply had no way to put this type of weapon into use.


    Even the base itself was only equipped with a hundred high-efficiency energy cannons, but it would not be used unless there was a crisis.


    In this era, energy was the most scarce resource.


    This was also the main reason why the base would send out exploration teams to search for Origin Stones.


    While the two continued to kill the petrified centipede, Gao Fei was still fighting with the bull.


    Although the bull could not deal any damage to the agile Gao Fei, Gao Fei¡¯s attacks could not break through the bull¡¯s tough body.


    Su Chen looked toward the direction where the man and the bull were fighting.


    Although the bull¡¯s body was covered in wounds caused by the gale energy, Su Chen could clearly see that the Origin Beast had not suffered any substantial damage.


    ¡°Could it be that Captain Gao Fei is also unable to break through the Origin Beast¡¯s defense?¡±


    Su Chen subconsciously asked.


    Hearing Su Chen¡¯s words, Wan Ling looked at Gao Fei¡¯s battle location and then replied, ¡°Captain is currently looking for the Origin Beast¡¯s weakness. A mere D-rank Origin Beast isn¡¯t a problem for captain.


    ¡°This Origin Beast¡¯s ability seems to be in the direction of strengthening. After using it, it can strengthen its body, increase its defense, and other attributes¡­¡±


    Wan Ling originally wanted to exin further, but as a strong sense of dizziness assaulted her, she hurriedly focused her attention.


    Seeing all spirits suddenly stumble as she spoke, Su Chen jumped in fright.


    This sister was holding a heavy firepower killing weapon in her hand. If it suddenly went off, his current small body would not be able to withstand it!


    As if he had noticed the strange movement behind him, Gao Fei looked in the direction of the two.


    ¡°You guys hold on, give me another 30 seconds!¡±


    Wan Ling also gritted her teeth and fired again. The firepower of the twopletely suppressed the petrifying centipedes at the crack.


    Under the dim light, Su Chen looked at the area where Gao Fei was.


    The de in Gao Fei¡¯s hand had been covered with ayer of green energy at some point in time, and the energy was continuously increasing!


    This subtle change did not escape Su Chen¡¯s eyes.


    Could it be that Gao Fei¡¯s special ability needed time to umte its power?


    From the beginning of the battle, the green energy spiraling on the long ck de was strengthening along with Gao Fei¡¯s continuous shing!


    After dozens of seconds of battle, Gao Fei¡¯s shing attacks began to gradually prate the thick skin of the bull!


    It seemed that it would not take long to kill this Origin Beast!


    Due to the forceful eruption of all spirits, the pressure on Su Chen was also greatly reduced. Almost no petrifying centipedes were able to survive the dense rain of bullets.


    Taking advantage of this time, Su Chen looked at the bull that was roaring and fighting with Gao Fei.


    The attack of this Origin Beast seemed to have weakened a lotpared to before.


    The huge bull was panting heavily, white hot air was constantly spewing out from its mouth.


    Its huge pupils revealed a hint of exhaustion!


    Wait!


    Pupils!


    Su Chen suddenly noticed the huge head of the bull was staring at Gao Fei¡¯s pupils angrily!


    Its body defense was so perverse, that its eyes could not possibly be bulletproof right?


    Once Su Chen was able to injure the bull¡¯s eyes and affect the Origin Beast, Gao Fei would definitely be able to kill it faster!


    After all, Wan Ling should not be able to hold on for long!


    Thinking of this, Su Chen nced at Wan Ling who was standing beside him.


    Wan Ling¡¯s originally fair skin had turned sickly pale at this moment. Fine beads of sweat had already covered her face.


    It was as if she had overused her superpower and was about to run out of oil.


    Seeing this scene, Su Chen did not hesitate.


    Holding her breath, she looked in the direction where the two were fighting.


    As if sensing what Su Chen was going to do, Wan Ling turned her head with difficulty and said, ¡°I can buy you five seconds.¡±


    As soon as she finished speaking, Su Chen saw Wan Ling leaning against the wall and holding the heavy machine gun with one hand to offset the recoil.


    With her other hand, she pulled out the silver pistol from her thigh. For a moment, both guns were fired at the same time!


    However, one was a pistol, and the other was a metal beast that spat out fire snakes!


    Su Chen looked at the bull attentively.


    He clearly knew that Wan Ling would not be able to maintain this state for a long time.


    At this moment, Su Chen waspletely focused.


    His breathing gradually stabilized, and he could clearly hear his own heartbeat gradually calming down!


    He only had five seconds left!


    One¡­


    Two¡­


    Three!


    ¡°Bang!¡±


    After three seconds of aiming, a bullet shot out from the boiling hot muzzle!


    This bullet flew straight toward the bull¡¯s huge right eye!


    At this moment, the bull seemed to have sensed the movement over here.


    He let out a human-like snort as if he was mocking Su Chen for overestimating himself.


    The giant bull gently closed its eyelids.


    With this weapon, it was impossible for it to pierce through its eyelids!


    ¡°Bang!¡±


    ¡°Exactly four seconds!¡± Su Chen said calmly as the gunshots rang out again.


    The two bullets reached Bull¡¯s eyes almost at the same time.


    ¡°Bang!¡±


    A firecracker-like explosion sounded. The two bullets collided and exploded in front of the bull¡¯s eyes!


    ¡°Moo!¡±


    The scattered shrapnel and smoke rushed straight into the bull¡¯s eyes, making it let out a painful howl!


    Gao Fei secretly praised his good marksmanship. He also seized this opportunity and shed down at the bull¡¯s huge head!


    Dang!


    The sound of metal colliding could be heard. However, this time, under the support of the green energy, Gao Fei¡¯s pitch-ck de continued to sh into the depths of the bull¡¯s skull.


    The iparably painful bull looked like it had gone mad!


    A pair of huge horns shone with endless golden light!


    The bull, which had no hope of survival,unched a desperate attack!


    Moo!


    Apanied by an angry roar of despair, the bull charged into themand cabin.


    However, this time, its movements were extremely slowpared to before.


    Gao Fei also dodged. With this level of impact, Su Chen and the wild bull could easily dodge it.


    It was just a struggle on the brink of death.


    Su Chen thought the same, so when the bull rushed toward the position of the two, he was already prepared to dodge.


    However, when he looked at Wan Ling, he saw Wan Ling¡¯s pupils dte and only subconsciously opened fire. She did not dodge the charging bull at all.


    F*ck! She dropped the ball at this moment!


    Su Chen hurriedly pulled Wan Ling away. With this pull, the mad bull had already rushed in front of him.


    Su Chen pulled Wan Ling away to the side.


    At the same time, when he turned around to look at the bull, he saw a ck knife cutting through the air!


    The ck knife stabbed into the bull¡¯s head without any hindrance!


    Dong!


    Finally, the bull crashed into the alloy wall of the spaceship and died on the spot!


    A huge tremor was heard!


    Themand cabin finally could not withstand such arge-scale battle and began to copse!

 Chapter 11

    Chapter 11: Beast Soul Fusion: D-Rank Origin Beast, Savage Bull!


    <strong>Trantor: </strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion  <strong>Editor: </strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion


    Countless electronic devices hanging on the wall copsed along with the alloy wall.


    Su Chen only had time to hug the unconscious Wan Ling tightly. The two of them rolled toward the location of savage bull¡¯s corpse.


    If they did not hide in the savage bull¡¯s huge body, with their physical attributes, they definitely would not be able to withstand the copsing heavy alloy wall.


    It would be ridiculous if they were to survive the Origin Beast¡¯s attack only to be crushed to death by the alloy wall.


    Hiss!


    Su Chen, who had just hidden under the savage bull, felt a piercing pain in his calf, causing him to suck in a breath of cold air.


    When themand cabin copsed, the power supply had already been cut off!


    Su Chen had no way to check his injuries, but his leg was probably broken.


    However, Su Chen did not struggle over the issue of his calf..


    An extremely majestic soul force was deeply attracting him!


    It was the D-rank bull-type Origin Beast¡¯s soul!


    After struggling for so long, he finally met a suitable beast soul!


    With the battle strength disyed by this bull, Su Chen would definitely be able to obtain a huge increase after absorbing its beast soul!


    Su Chen decided to stop suppressing the impulse in his body and began to absorb the bull¡¯s soul without any restraint!


    Now that themand cabin had copsed, he did not know how Gao Fei was doing.


    He could not ce all his hopes on Gao Fei. If he wanted to save himself, the only way now was to fuse with the beast¡¯s soul!


    As Su Chen stopped resisting the impulse that came from his instincts, the corpse of the bull suddenly changed!


    A light blue energy was continuously emitted from the bull¡¯s nose and mouth. Together with it, there was a scarlet liquid oozing out from the bull¡¯s body!


    If Gao Fei saw this scene, he would definitely be shocked. This scarlet liquid was clearly the origin energy contained in the body of the Origin Beast!


    Even the research department of the base had yet to find a way to extract the origin energy from the body of the Origin Beast.


    Otherwise, they would not have wasted so many corpses of the Origin Beasts.


    However, the current Su Chen was directly absorbing this boundless energy!


    The light blue smoke continued to enter Su Chen¡¯s nose and mouth. The scarlet liquid seemed to have a life of its own as it flowed toward Su Chen, gradually disappearing on the surface of his body!


    Su Chen was like a bottomless pit. After the boundless energy entered his body, it was like a y ox entering the sea. There was not even the slightest ripple!


    Only Su Chen could clearly feel his body being strengthened!


    This kind offortable feeling made him unable to help but moan.


    Previously, when he fused with the eagle¡¯s soul, he did not obtain any origin energy. After all, the eagle-type Origin Beast was imprisoned by the research center. Su Chen had no way to directly touch the corpse, so he did not have the time to absorb anything other than the beast¡¯s soul.


    About a minuteter, that huge amount of energy had already beenpletely absorbed by Su Chen.


    Along with a warm current flowing through Su Chen¡¯s limbs, even the pain in his calf had weakened quite a bit.


    Su Chen tried to move his legs. The injury on his calf should have slowed down quite a bit. When he absorbed the bull¡¯s soul to strengthen his body, it had somewhat recovered.


    Until now, Su Chen had finally determined that his ability was to absorb the beast¡¯s soul indefinitely!


    Moreover, he could obtain the characteristics of this Origin Beast!


    At the very least, when absorbing the bull¡¯s soul, Su Chen did not feel the upper limit of his body.


    Other than needing to digest it for a period of time, he did not feel any drawbacks.


    Although the power of the bull¡¯s soul was still being digested, Su Chen was already able to use the power of the bull!


    As the energy in his body surged, the power in Su Chen¡¯s body became more and more abundant. He could clearly feel that with the weapons used by the workers, it was already very difficult for them to harm him without attacking his vital points.


    Although his defense was definitely notparable to Mark¡¯s special ability, his strength was many times stronger than Mark¡¯s!


    Only now did Su Chen clearly feel how limited the damage that thermal weapons could cause!


    That was right, except for Wan Ling and the others.


    Thinking of this, Su Chen remembered that there was still an unconscious Evolver lying under him.


    After checking Wan Ling¡¯s breathing, Su Chen felt at ease.


    Although Wan Ling was not an Evolver that could strengthen her body, with her body¡¯s constitution, she would not die so easily.


    ¡­


    In themand cabin, Gao Fei clearly saw Su Chen pull Wan Ling under the bull.


    This made him feel at ease. Su Chen¡¯sbat skills were not bad, and he was able to maintain a calm state of mind at that moment.


    This kind of person was the most suitable person to survive in the wastnd. If it was not for the fact that Su Chen was not an Evolver, he would not have been able to survive in the wastnd.


    Gao Fei really did not intend to let him join the exploration team.


    It was not that he looked down on Su Chen¡¯s identity as a worker, but the mission that the exploration team carried out was too dangerous for the workers.


    Almost no workers would follow the exploration team to carry out missions, unless they were courting death!


    He casually killed a few remaining petrified centipedes.


    After the cabin copsed, the petrified centipedes lost their target. Most of the petrified centipedes went back to hiding and waited for their next batch of prey.


    After dealing with the remaining petrified centipedes in the vicinity, Gao Fei walked toward the ce where the two of them were.


    Gao Fei lit up a glow stick and began to observe the situation of the copse.


    Only the head of the bull¡¯s huge body was still exposed.


    However, Gao Fei had no idea how to deal with the debris on the ground. He was not a strength-type Evolver, so it was difficult for him to move the debris.


    As for shing the debris with a knife, it would not be good if he identally killed the two survivors below.


    ¡°Bang!¡±


    Just as Gao Fei was about to contact Mark who had already retreated, a tremor came from under his feet.


    He immediately took a step back. As Gao Fei retreated, he saw an arm pushing away a heavy metal te.


    ¡°What the f*ck is so heavy?¡± Su Chen, who had poked his head out,ined. He saw a pair of familiar military boots in front of him.


    He raised his head and looked up. Su Chen met Gao Fei¡¯s calm eyes.


    He immediately guessed who the weight wasing from¡­


    A minuteter, with Gao Fei¡¯s help, the two carried Wan Ling to the top of the ruins.


    Seeing the way Gao Fei looked at him, Su Chen immediately knew what Gao Fei wanted to ask.


    He did not hesitate and said directly, ¡°Captain Gao Fei, I seem to have awakened my superpowers by ident just now?¡±


    Gao Fei curled his lips. Did Su Chen take him for a fool?


    Was it so easy to awaken a superpower?


    However, Gao Fei did not ask any more questions. Although Su Chen¡¯s answer was a bit ridiculous, it was not unprecedented.


    Judging from Su Chen¡¯s appearance, he should have awakened a superpower rted to strength, so he could deliberately nurture it.


    This kid¡¯sbat literacy was indeed not bad.


    Thinking of this, Gao Fei walked over to bull¡¯s corpse, unsheathed his long saber, and cut off the two horns that had lost their luster.


    He threw one of the horns to Su Chen. ¡°This thing can be used to make equipment and materials, so it¡¯s worth a lot of contribution points. I¡¯ll treat it as a reward for saving Wan Ling.¡±


    Su Chen took the horns and did not refuse. He was indeed short of money right now.


    Gao Fei briefly checked on Wan Ling¡¯s condition and found that she had fainted due to the consumption of too much spiritual power, so he was relieved.


    Mark had already sent the news of the safe evacuation to Gao Fei through the wristband.


    Just as Gao Fei wanted to contact the base to prepare to return, he found that for some reason, he could not contact them.


    Su Chen simply carried Wan Ling on his back, and Gao Fei left the wreckage of the spaceship, preparing to return.

    Su Chen, who was carrying Wan Ling on his back, muttered and said, ¡°She¡¯s a little heavy.¡±


    Gao Fei, who was walking in front, heard Su Chen¡¯s words, and his eyebrows jumped.


    ¡°Kid, you really know how to act. Not to mention, you¡¯ve awakened your strength-type superpower, and even if you haven¡¯t awakened your superpower yet, wouldn¡¯t it be easy for you to carry an Origin Stone that weighs more than 50 kilograms?¡±


    Hearing Gao Fei¡¯s reply, Su Chen was a little surprised. He could tell that this exploration mission had yielded a lot, and that he, as the captain, was in a good mood.


    He could even chat normally!


    However, the current Su Chen was really bitter..


    He had just finished absorbing the bull¡¯s energy and soul and had yet topletely digest them.


    In addition to the previous intense battle, his original physical strength had long been exhausted. Bringing Wan Ling to climb out of the ruins had already exhausted all of Su Chen¡¯s strength.


    Right now, he really did not have any strength.


    However, Su Chen naturally would not exin the situation of his superpower to Gao Fei. He did not want to be dissected and studied.


    Right now, he had already fused with the bull¡¯s soul and confirmed the ability of his superpower.


    Su Chen had personally witnessed the rapid evolution of the monsters in the wastnd. If he wanted to survive, his current strength was far from enough.


    He still needed to be stronger.


    The next step should be to think of a way to join the battle sequence. Only in this way could hee into contact with more Origin Beasts and obtain the opportunity to be stronger.


    After all, there were only a few missions that the workers could participate in.


    They were more in charge of cleaning up after the battle.


    Everyone was silent throughout the rest of the journey. The two of them seemed to have their own worries as they silently walked out of the spaceship wreckage.


    The dangers along the way seemed to have been specially cleared up by Mark. Other than asionally seeing one or two petrified centipede corpses, they did not see any other dangers.


    Mark had left marks at every intersection. Following the route that Mark had given them, the two of them soon saw the exit.


    Seeing the lighting from the exit, Su Chen felt as if he had been reborn.


    During this mission, there was almost no time to rest. Ever since they entered the spaceship wreckage, they were either fighting or on the road of escape.


    It consumed a lot of their mental and physical strength.


    Su Chen walked toward the light. Su Chen found that where they came out from was the front of the spaceship. The entire exploration team almost spanned the entire spaceship.


    When they were near the gap, Su Chen looked at the uneven edges of the gap. He judged that this should be the exit that the workers had cut out with a chainsaw.


    Mark must have chosen a passage close to the outside world so that they could forcefully break it open.


    If they continued to explore the unknown area of the spaceship, they might encounter even more danger.


    Although they had only searched the hull area and themand center of the spaceship, they had still gained a lot from this operation.


    This time, they had obtained quite a number of Origin Stones, and they had also found quite a number of other living supplies.


    ¡°Captain! Are you guys alright?¡±


    Mark, who was leaning against the supplies cart, was delighted.


    They had just returned to the ground when they felt the violent shaking of the spaceship behind them.


    That movement was enough to make them believe that the wreckage of the spaceship had copsed on the spot!


    This made Mark so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks. However, due to Gao Fei¡¯s orders, he did not dare to enter without permission to check the situation.


    Now that he saw the three of them appear, he was naturally delighted.


    ¡°Wan Ling, this is¡­¡±


    Seeing the pale Wan Ling behind Su Chen, Mark asked with concern.


    ¡°It¡¯s just that my spiritual power has been consumed too much and I¡¯m exhausted,¡± Gao Fei replied.


    ¡°That¡¯s good. This operation is too dangerous. When I return, I want to enjoy myself for a few days!¡±


    Mark let out a long sigh of relief.


    Even he, who had participated in many missions, felt his heart skip a beat when he carried out this mission.


    It was a miracle that only two workers were killed in this level of mission!


    Gao Fei looked at the wrist guard in his hand and said, ¡°It¡¯s gettingte. Let¡¯s return.¡±


    The wastnd at night was extremely dangerous. Not only was there ack of light, but most of the creatures in the wastnd would also be active during this time.


    Therefore, the exploration team almost never left the lighthouse at night.


    Every operation could only be carried out after the researchers had confirmed it.


    After putting Wan Ling in the transport vehicle, Su Chen prepared to return to the vehicle he had been in previously.


    This mission had sent out a total of three vehicles, two tactical SUVs, and a material transport vehicle.


    ¡°Holy sh*t! You really survived!¡± Seeing Su Chen walking over, Gu Xin was both surprised and happy.


    Su Chen held his forehead and said, ¡°What kind of jinx is this? If you don¡¯t know how to speak, then shut your mouth.¡±


    How could he speak?


    Did he, Su Chen, look like he would die so easily?


    ¡°No, I mean, why did you stay?!¡±


    ¡°Do you not want to die?¡±


    Gu Xin asked, his face full of confusion.


    The opponent was a D-rank Origin Beast, and an Origin Beast that knew how to use its special ability!


    Although Gu Xin did not know the concept of an Origin Beast being able to use its special ability, but thinking about it, it was definitely not a battle that a worker like Su Chen could intervene in!


    At that time, when Su Chen threw the storage box to him, Gu Xin¡¯s eyeballs almost fell out of their sockets. If the situation was not too urgent, he would have dragged Su Chen away no matter what!


    Now that Su Chen had returned safely, Gu Xin finally asked the question in his heart.


    Gu Xin was waiting for Su Chen¡¯s reply when he saw Su Chen approach him with a mysterious expression.


    ¡°F*ck! What are you doing? I don¡¯t have that kind of hobby!¡± Gu Xin quickly clutched his chest, looking shocked.


    Su Chen acted like he was about to vomit. ¡°Don¡¯t f*cking disgust me. Are you still going to listen or not?¡±


    ¡°I just want to liven up the atmosphere. Besides, there¡¯s only the two of us in this car. Why are you being so mysterious?¡±


    ¡°Ahem.¡± Su Chen coughed when he heard Gu Xin¡¯s words.


    He looked at Gu Xin. Captain Gao Fei was in charge of driving this car. He was an evolved human, so he might be able to hear everything.


    ¡°You don¡¯t treat Captain Gao Fei as a human, do you?!¡±


    Gu Xin seemed to have just reacted, and hurriedly lowered his voice.


    ¡°F*ck, I forgot about this. It¡¯s fine, you can continue.¡±


    Seeing that the topic had finallye back, Su Chen said leisurely, ¡°I knew that the Origin Beast wasn¡¯t simple, so I stayed.¡±


    ¡°Well, when I was fighting with that Origin Beast, I awakened my special ability!¡±


    After saying that, Su Chen casually released a wave of energy and showed it to Gu Xin.


    Gu Xin was confused and speechless.


    ¡°F*ck! Can a superpower be awakened like that? Then, I, fatty, will suffer a huge loss! Next time, I will find an Origin Beast to fight with!¡±


    Su Chen was rendered speechless by hisments.


    What kind of strange brain circuits does this fatty have? Was that what I said?


    Su Chen hurriedly exined in a serious manner, afraid that Gu Xin would seek his own death!


    The general meaning was that after Mark and the others left, he and Wan Ling had survived Captain Gao Fei¡¯s heroic battle.


    However, Su Chen did not exin in detail why he had awakened his special ability.


    Even so, Gao Fei was still amazed by Su Chen¡¯s story of his encounter that he was telling Gu Xin.


    Thest person who had awakened his special ability in battle was that legendary figure in the base.


    Gao Fei heard their conversation clearly along the way.


    In conclusion, Su Chen¡¯s words werepletely out of line, scaring Gu Xin into a daze.


    However, when it came to Gao Fei¡¯s powerful performance in battle, Gao Fei felt quitefortable listening to it.


    What Su Chen said was notpletely unreliable!


    There were not many idents on the way back, and the Origin Beasts that asionally appeared were also quickly shaken off by the powerful horsepower of the vehicles.


    Not long after, a huge monster made of steel appeared at the end of Su Chen¡¯s field of vision, which was the base.

 Chapter 13

    Chapter 13: The Lighthouse


    <strong>Trantor: </strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion  <strong>Editor: </strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion


    The wastnd was barren.


    The mutated Origin Beasts were living in the wilderness.


    At this moment, the surface of the earth shook slightly.


    The startled poisonous insects scattered and fled in all directions.


    A steel beast that was nearly a thousand meters tall was moving slowly. The huge treads were rumbling as they moved.


    This was the base that the humans lived in the wastnd, the mobile fortress.


    The entire steel city was shaped like a lighthouse and spiraled upward.


    Therefore, the mobile fortress was codenamed The Lighthouse, meaning thest light of humanity!


    To ensure the safety of the lighthouse, after the exploration team set off, The Lighthouse had been moving slowly around the established route with low energy consumption.


    This was Lighthouse No. 47, which belonged to Gao Fei¡¯s team, and the poption was close to a million.


    There were less than a hundred lighthouses that still existed.


    At this moment, in themand hall on the top floor of The Lighthouse, countless staff members were walking back and forth, constantly processing the reports in their hands and analyzing the current situation of The Lighthouse.


    ¡°Reporting to the City Lord, exploration team 7 has lost connection¡­ ording to thest test information sent back by the wrist guard, I¡¯m afraid it¡¯s already¡­¡±


    An old man with white hair and a beard sitting at the head of themand hall gently waved his hand to stop the hesitant reporter.


    His name was Shi Hao, the City Lord of Lighthouse No. 47.


    ¡°There is still no news sent back to the team. Which other teams are there?¡±


    The old man opened his mouth to ask, but his voice seemed a bit low.


    ¡°Other than the first team that has already returned to The Lighthouse, there¡¯s only the third team, led by Gao Fei.¡±


    ¡°In addition to the news that team seven just sent back¡­ the other teams¡­ are all dead.¡±


    The reporter¡¯s voice became softer as he spoke. Every exploration team was The Lighthouse¡¯s precious strategic resources. Once they were lost, it would be a huge blow to The Lighthouse.


    Not to mention now, in just a few days, they had lost eight exploration teams in session!


    To Lighthouse No. 47, this kind of attack was undoubtedly devastating!


    ¡°Li Mo¡­ Do you think we should send out the second group of exploration squads now?¡± Shi Hao asked.


    His voice was a bit hoarse, as if he had aged ten years in an instant.


    Beside him, a figure dressed in military uniform took a step forward. He was the captain of the first exploration squad, Li Mo!


    ¡°I think we can wait a little longer. I trust Gao Fei¡¯s strength. He won¡¯t die so easily.¡±


    Li Mo did not think about it and replied directly,¡°During this operation, the wastnd has undergone a change. The specific information research center will be able to find out very soon.¡±


    This time, although the first team had sessfully returned to The Lighthouse, the Origin Stones they brought back were like a drop in the bucket.


    The mutation that urred in the wastnd also posed a huge threat to the first squad. This was also the reason why Li Mo had no choice but to return early.


    Shi Hao lightly nodded. He still trusted Li Mo..


    After all, Li Mo was one of the first batch of Evolvers to awaken their special abilities. He was also the first person to awaken his special abilities in battle!


    Before the Evolvers appeared, it was also his first time sessfully bringing back resources from the wastnd.


    During that operation, out of nearly a hundred explorers, only Li Mo survived, even though he had lost an arm when he returned.


    At the same time, Li Mo was also the most powerful Evolver within the lighthouse. Since he was able to agree with Gao Fei, it meant that there was still hope for them.


    After Li Mo finished speaking, Shi Hao also let out a slight sigh of relief.


    Right at this moment, a staff member hurried over.


    ¡°City Lord, exploration team three returned safely!¡±


    ¡°The Origin Stones we brought back should be enough for the stronghold to use for two months!¡±


    ¡°Two months?¡± Shi Hao asked in confusion.


    ¡°Could it be that all members of team three survived? They were able to bring back so many Origin Stones?¡±


    Shi Hao did not mean to say that he wanted team three to lose a few people, but that such arge amount of Origin Stones still needed to be transported by the workers.


    The other teams were almostpletely wiped out. Even Li Mo¡¯s first team only returned five Evolvers and four workers.


    If Shi Hao remembered correctly, the entire team three only had three Evolvers.


    How did they survive?


    ¡°There were still casualties. Two workers died.¡±


    ¡°Two workers?¡± Shi Hao waspletely shocked this time.


    The casualty ratio of two employees could be considered extremely small even in the past missions, not to mention that the wastnd was currently undergoing a metamorphosis!


    The shocked Shi Hao raised his head to look at Li Mo, only to see Li Mo¡¯s expression as if he had said it long ago.


    ¡°City Lord¡­ There is still one more thing.¡±


    The staff member was somewhat hesitant, as if he was afraid that saying something would agitate this white-haired old man.


    ¡°It¡¯s fine¡­ go ahead.¡± After hearing the staff member¡¯s words, Shi Hao was not too anxious. He picked up the teacup in front of him and took a sip.


    Since there were no problems with the resources and personnel, he could ept even the worst news.


    From the staff member¡¯s appearance, it seemed like he had something unexpected that he wanted to tell him. If the third squad really came back smoothly, he was afraid that he would still doubt the authenticity of this news.


    ¡°Captain Gao Fei and the others even brought back a sample of that mutated nt.¡±


    ¡°Hmm¡­ Impossible! What did you say?¡±


    Shi Hao spat out a mouthful of tea, and the tea leaves hung onto the staff¡¯s sses.


    This time, even Li Mo¡¯s expression was somewhat astonished.


    That strange nt usually appeared in a certain area, and even Li Mo himself did not dare to approach it.


    Gao Fei was able to obtain a sample, which made him extremely surprised.


    This time, Shi Hao did not ask any more questions. Instead, he stood up with Gao Fei¡¯s help and headed toward the lowest level of the lighthouse, the direction where the exploration team had returned.

 Chapter 14

    Chapter 14: Safe Return


    <strong>Trantor: </strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion  <strong>Editor: </strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion


    ¡°Captain, we can contact The Lighthouse now!¡±


    Mark¡¯s excited voice came from Gao Fei¡¯s wrist guard.


    Hearing Mark¡¯s news, Gao Fei looked at his surroundings.


    The convoy had left the ruins of the city and arrived in the wilderness. The strange nts that were scattered all over the city had disappeared.


    ¡°It seems that the reason why the signal is not stable may be rted to that nt,¡± Gao Fei said to Mark.


    ¡°Hmm, maybe the spores scattered in the air affected the signal transmission. After returning to The Lighthouse this time, I¡¯ll go back to the research institute to take a look.¡±


    Mark¡¯s voice was rarely serious.


    It was also at this time that Su Chen learned from their conversation that Mark was actually a researcher in The Lighthouse¡¯s research institute!


    Sure enough, there were crouching tigers and hidden dragons in Gao Fei¡¯s team!


    The slowly moving lighthouse lowered the receiving tform when the motorcade approached.


    Along with the roar of metal movement, the huge metal tform was lowered, about ten meters away from the ground.


    ¡°Prepare to ignite!¡± Gao Fei said to the drivers of the other two vehicles.


    Upon hearing this, Su Chen and Gu Xin hurriedly fastened their seatbelts. Su Chen, who had worked in the vehicle maintenance department, knew too well what was about to happen!


    As Gao Fei¡¯s voice fell, a huge ejector port appeared on the chassis of the three vehicles.


    ¡°Boom!¡±


    With a loud bang, Su Chen felt a strong push on his back!


    The three off-road vehicles actually flew up from the ground in unison and elerated toward the receiving tform ced by the lighthouse!


    This was the masterpiece of the vehicle maintenance department!


    All the vehicles in The Lighthouse were equipped with powerful thrusters.


    They could be used for a short period of time.


    Although they could not make the vehicles fly, they were very useful for crossing someplicated terrain!


    With the ejection device, the vehicles could enter and leave the lighthouse very quickly, greatly increasing the mobility of the vehicles!


    As for why Su Chen knew so clearly, another reason was that the vehicles needed to be repaired, and arge part of it also came from this function.


    Before this, after every exploration operation, it was the most painful time for the entire maintenance department.


    ¡°ng!¡±


    Apanied by a strong sense of weightlessness, the three vehicles finallynded on the receiving tform.


    After a day, they returned to The Lighthouse!


    As the receiving tform slowly rose, everyone also got down from their vehicles.


    The rest of the work was left to the workers in the base to finish up. As for the harvest of this operation, Mark had finished counting them on the way back and reported them to the lighthouse.


    ¡°Wan Ling? Feeling better?¡±


    Gao Fei asked.


    Su Chen, who had just gotten off the car, looked up and saw Wan Ling being supported by Mark as he walked down with flighty steps.


    From the looks of it, the aftereffects of consuming too much of one¡¯s spirit attribute special ability had yet to bepletely eliminated.


    Wan Ling responded softly. It could be considered as telling Gao Fei that she was not a big problem. Then, she started to scan her surroundings.


    When she saw Su Chen, her eyes lit up.


    She staggered as she tried to walk toward Su Chen.


    Seeing a great beauty walking toward him, Gu Xin immediately became excited. He used his elbow to nudge Su Chen and said in a low voice, ¡°It can¡¯t be that because you saved her, that she wants to marry you, right?¡±


    Su Chen¡¯s face was full of ck lines. What was this fatty thinking about all day?


    At most, he just wanted to express his gratitude. However, having a beautiful sister to thank him was not bad.


    Just as Su Chen was thinking about this, Wan Ling had already arrived in front of him.


    When Wan Ling stood in front of Su Chen, she hesitated as if she did not know how to speak.


    When Su Chen saw her like this, he was instantly shocked. Gu Xin could not have guessed correctly, right?!


    Women would only stop him from bing stronger!


    He was still a good young man who wanted to conquer the beacon of destruction in the wastnd!


    At this time, Wan Ling finally spoke as if she had made up her mind. ¡°That¡­ the bullets you used to kill the bull should have been modified, right?¡±


    Su Chen was speechless


    This script was not right!


    Wan Ling¡¯s question waspletely out of Su Chen¡¯s expectations!


    For a moment, he really did not know how to answer.


    Should he say it or not?


    Wan Ling had really guessed correctly. When Su Chen attacked the bull, the bullets he used were indeed specially made using the tools of the maintenance factory.


    The standard weapons of the workers usually carried sharp bullets to break through the Origin Beasts¡¯ defenses as much as possible.


    The bullets that Su Chen used at that time were used to tten the bullets and cut them with a crossguard knife. By reducing the length of the bullets, they increased the amount of gunpowder in the bullets.


    In this way, when the bullets hit the target, they could cause a small explosion, and the scattered shrapnel could cause secondary damage.


    However, this modified bullet was only an experiment of Su Chen. The rate of explosion was extremely high, so it was not suitable for most people to use.


    Only people like Su Chen, who relied on his strong eyesight and focused on shooting, were suitable to use it.


    However, judging from the results, it was obviously useless. It did not have much effect against the petrified centipedes, and its lethality was not even as good as standard bullets.


    The time he attacked the bull could only be considered as luck.


    At the very least, that was what Su Chen thought.


    Therefore, after thinking for a long time, Su Chen said hesitantly, ¡°The bullets I used were indeed different, but to be able to have an effect on the bull, it could only be considered good luck.


    ¡°The principle is to reduce the pration of the bullet while increasing the force-bearing area of the bullet and the capacity of the gunpowder, so that when it hits the target, it can cause an explosion and scatter shrapnel.


    ¡°If you continue shooting this way, it is very easy to cause the gun to explode.


    ¡°Moreover, your bullet is condensed from spiritual power. My method shouldn¡¯t be of any use to you, right?¡±


    Wan Ling¡¯s bullet was constructed from spiritual power. This was also the reason why Su Chen felt strange about her question.


    Unexpectedly, after Wan Ling heard Su Chen¡¯s words, her eyes lit up a little!


    The side effects brought by the exhaustion of spiritual power seemed to have disappeared at this moment, as if she had discovered a new world.


    She kept recording the contents of Su Chen¡¯s words on her wrist guard.


    As if she could see the doubt in Su Chen¡¯s eyes, Wan Ling opened her mouth to exin, ¡°My spiritual bullets are produced by my own control. Simply putting it, I canpletely make spiritual bullets ording to my own wishes.


    ¡°All I need to do ispress the spiritual energy contained within each bullet and change the shape of the bullet. Then, I can achieve the effect you mentioned. This way, I can have a more powerful attack method.


    ¡°And there¡¯s no risk of the bullet exploding.¡±


    Su Chen suddenly understood. Evolvers had many different abilities, and he knew too little about them.


    Thinking about how the horrifying Wan Ling¡¯s heavy machine gun that could use such high explosive bullets without limit, Su Chen could not help but mourn for any Origin Beast.


    ¡°All in all, thank you for this time.¡± After saying that, Wan Ling turned around and left, leaving Mark and Su Chen, who were still in the same spot, dumbfounded.


    ¡°This is the first time I¡¯ve seen Wan Ling thank someone. What exactly happened to you guys in there?¡± Mark looked at the beauty who left with a pained expression.


    He already knew that Su Chen had awakened his superpower. ording to Captain Gao Fei, Su Chen was very likely to be Mark¡¯s future teammate.


    Therefore, the conversation between him and Su Chen had unknowingly be equal.


    After all, they had all seen Su Chen¡¯s performance in this mission.


    From the perspective of an employee, Su Chen¡¯s performance in this mission could be said to be perfect.


    Just as Mark was inquiring about the contents of the final battle, the receiving tform finally returned to the lighthouse.


    When everyone saw the old man standing outside the receiving tform, even Mark¡¯s expression, who had always been smiling mischievously, became much more serious.


    There was no other reason as the person who came was none other than The Lighthouse¡¯s leadership, led by Shi Hao.

 Chapter 15

    Chapter 15: Rmendation Letter


    <strong>Trantor: </strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion  <strong>Editor: </strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion


    This was the first time Su Chen had seen the City Lord in person.


    He had seen him on the screen before, but from the way Shi Hao personally received him, their mission this time might not be as simple as it seemed.


    When the receiving tform reached the interior of the lighthouse,Shi Hao immediately saw the figure standing at the head of the tform that looked like a de, Gao Fei.


    Although Gao Fei was already a senior explorer, it was still an exploration job. Li Mo had always been in charge of it, so Shi Hao did not know much about Gao Fei.


    Now that he had seen him with his own eyes, he was indeed extraordinary.


    The main reason why he personally came was because the nts that Gao Fei¡¯s group brought back were of great significance to The Lighthouse.


    As a result, Shi Hao gave Gao Fei¡¯s group amendation after exchanging pleasantries. It was an additional contribution point.


    It was not because The Lighthouse was stingy, but because every resource had to be firmly controlled in this current environment. Even the City Lord was unable to make any decisions on his own.


    Even so, these rewards made everyone in the third team extremely happy, especially the employees who participated in this operation.


    The rewards this time were almostparable to the previous four missions!


    At this point, this mission could be considered to havee to a sessful end.


    Before leaving, Mark found Su Chen, who was preparing to leave with Gu Xin.


    ¡°Mark?¡±


    Seeing Mark, Su Chen was somewhat surprised. This mission had already ended, and their employees did not usually belong to the third team. Hence, he did not know why Mark was looking for him.


    ¡°Kid, your luck is pretty good. This is Captain Gao Fei¡¯s rmendation letter. After you go to the Combat Sequence Administration Department for a short period of training, report to our third team.¡±


    ¡°Also, what is Mark¡¯s name? Call me Senior from now on!¡±


    Hearing Mark¡¯s words, Su Chen¡¯s face lit up. He had been worrying about how to join thebat squad, but who would have thought that Gao Fei had already arranged everything for him!


    After this operation, thebat strength of the third team had shocked him deeply. Being able to join Gao Fei¡¯s squad was naturally the best for Su Chen.


    It saved him the need to understand the abilities of his teammates in order to strengthen their cooperation.


    However, there was a problem that Su Chen could not understand. Gao Fei was powerful, but the members under him were only Wan Ling and Mark.


    This should not be¡­ This kind of team would not invite him to join just because Su Chen¡¯sbat literacy was not bad.


    However, Su Chen did not think too much about it. Currently, the shortcut to joining the battle sequence was already on his face. There was no need to trouble himself.


    ¡°Okay, Mark. Thank you, Mark!¡± Su Chen took the rmendation letter from Mark.


    ¡°You! I told you to call me Senior¡­¡± Mark gritted his teeth when he saw Su Chen¡¯s expression. He was thetest one who joined Gao Fei¡¯s squad. Now that the rookies did not listen to him, how could he show off his authority as a senior?


    However, before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Su Chen. ¡°What is training? Do you still need to go to school to be abat member?¡±


    Hearing Su Chen¡¯s question, Mark felt a headacheing on. The newbie that the captain had taken a fancy to was really clueless.


    He could only exin, ¡°Do you really think that joining thebat sequence is that simple? At the very least, you have to go through a short-term training to understand the direction of your superpower development and the things you need to pay attention to duringbat¡­ In short, you don¡¯t know anything right now, so you can¡¯t directly join!


    ¡°It¡¯s not necessary for you to go to school. Your training should be over before the next mission.


    ¡°As for the content of the next mission, Captain Gao Fei asked me to tell you that the target location is a trench. I¡¯m not sure about the specific situation.¡±


    ¡°I see. Thank you, Senior Mark.¡± Su Chen did not tease Mark anymore. Since the other party had dutifully told him so many things, it was only right for him to address him as senior.


    Hearing Su Chen¡¯s change of address, Mark was also extremely pleased. Just as he was about to show off his senior¡¯s elegance, he lowered his head and saw two figures, one fat and one thin, had already left.


    ¡­


    ¡°This isn¡¯t real! This isn¡¯t real!¡± Gu Xin walked beside Su Chen, muttering to himself in a daze.


    He had been shocked too much in a short period of time, and was a little delirious.


    ¡°Hey, I¡¯ve already awakened my superpower. Isn¡¯t it reasonable for Captain Gao Fei to invite me to join the squad?


    ¡°Is there a need for this?


    ¡°At most, when I¡¯ve earned enough contribution points, I can get you another evolution potion to try. I¡¯ll treat it as a gift from a good brother.¡±


    Su Chen was in a good mood now.


    He had gotten the chance to join thebat squad in just one mission. This way, he would have a lot of opportunities to be stronger.


    Stepping on the mobile tform to return to the civilian area, Su Chen took a look at the time.


    It was already eight o¡¯clock, and the sky was getting dark.


    He did not know if the staff of thebat management office had gotten off work yet, but Su Chen decided to take a look. The Combat Sequence Administration Department had a reporting point in the civilian area.


    When Su Chen had signed up for the exploration team staff, he had gone to that ce.


    ¡°Hey, Gu Xin, do you want to sign up with me at the Combat Sequence Administration Department?¡± Su Chen asked Gu Xin, who was standing beside him.


    After hearing Su Chen¡¯s voice, Gu Xin seemed to have learned a lesson from a painful experience. His expression was solemn, and no one knew what he had made up his mind.


    ¡°Go! I want to awaken my superpower in the next mission!¡±


    ¡°Ugh¡­ You can¡¯t force yourself to do this. To be honest, judging from the changes in your body, it¡¯s only a matter of time before you awaken your superpower.¡±


    Seeing Gu Xin¡¯s current state, Su Chen was a little worried that Gu Xin would act recklessly, so he could onlyfort him.


    However, to be honest, Su Chen felt that the possibility of Gu Xin awakening his superpower was very high. After all, almost all the people who had mutated after being injected with the evolution drug like him had awakened their superpowers.


    As for why Gu Xin had not awakened his superpower yet, Su Chen guessed that it might be because he had matured a littleter.


    After arriving at the civilian area, at this time, most of the workers had already gone to rest, except for those who needed to be guarded 24 hours a day and used a shift system.


    In The Lighthouse, the working hours usually started before dawn, so everyone¡¯s sleeping time was simr.


    This civilian area was the ce where most people living in the lighthouse was, so it was livelier during the day.


    As for now, it was already quiet. Only the cleaning robots on the road were still working.


    The Lighthouse¡¯s lighting energy used sr power, so it was usually bright within 24 hours.


    However, the mobile trains to and from various areas only opened during the day. Hence, Su Chen and Gu Xin had to walk.


    It was quite rxing.


    ¡°There¡¯s still a lot of things to do this time¡­¡±


    Su Chen could not help but sigh.


    Other thanbat training, he also had to pay attention to the location of the next mission. The information that Mark had given him was the trench.


    This meant that the next mission was an underwater mission.


    He did not know much about the Origin Beasts underwater. Everything had to bepleted in a short period of time.


    ¡°It seems that there are many things to do after bing an Evolver¡­¡±


    Hearing Su Chen¡¯s words, Gu Xin felt as if his heart had been stabbed again. He could only turn his anger into his appetite. He kept eating thepressed biscuits in his bag and muttered to himself, ¡°When I be an Evolver¡­ there will be even more delicious food!¡±


    The two of them chatted and walked slowly. After a while, they saw the management office in the distance.

 Chapter 16 - Bribery

    Chapter 16: Bribery


    <strong>Trantor:</strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion<strong>Editor:</strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion


    ¡°Ahh, this isfortable.¡±


    Old Li from the administration office carefully put the half-smoked cigarette into an iron box.


    This was a rare good thing in the wastnd.


    He looked at the clock on the wall. It was almost time to get off work.


    Just as he was about to pack up and leave, he saw two figures, one fat and one thin, walking toward the administration office.


    ¡°Someone is reporting this at this hour?¡±


    Old Li muttered. When he looked over, he found that the fat figure looked familiar!


    ¡°Isn¡¯t this that silly little fatty? Did he realize that I lied to him?¡±


    .


    The moment he saw Gu Xin, Old Li felt a little guilty.


    Just two days ago, this little fatty had secretlye to look for Old Li and stuffed him with a pile of food, even though most of it was cheappressed biscuits.


    He said that he wanted Old Li to help him ry his information to the third team that Captain Gao Fei belonged to.


    Originally, Old Li had nned to casually dismiss this person. This sort of thing was recorded into The Lighthouse¡¯s management system. How could a logistics worker like him be able to change it?


    However, when he turned around, he caught a glimpse of this little fatty¡¯s information. He was originally under Captain Gao Fei.


    Based on the principle of not epting anything for free, Old Li epted Gu Xin¡¯s bribe.


    Therefore, when he saw Gu Xin walking over from afar with another person, Old Li thought that Gu Xin had reported the matter to The Lighthouse.


    He was naturally very anxious, but The Lighthouse was strictly managed, so he could not run away on the spot. There was nowhere to hide in this small administration department.


    ¡°The internal management of this lighthouse is very strict. They won¡¯t dare to do anything,¡±Old Li muttered.


    Therefore, he forced himself to stay in the administration office and pretended to be confused and not know this little fatty.


    Soon, Su Chen and Gu Xin approached the management office.


    Old Li took a closer look. These two were dressed as workers, and he immediately let out a sigh of relief.


    Luckily, this fatty would not be reporting him to The Lighthouse.


    ¡®He might not even know that I lied to him.¡¯


    ¡°Uncle, I¡¯m here to submit thebat sequence application.¡± Su Chen did not know about this and casually handed over Gao Fei¡¯s rmendation letter.


    When Old Li saw it, he broke out in cold sweat on the spot.


    F*ck, this kid is a reserve member under Gao Fei?


    This little fatty must know that I lied to him! I did not expect him to know an Evolver!


    Could it be that this little fatty brought people to seek revenge?


    Thinking of this, Old Li looked up at Gu Xin who was standing behind Su Chen.


    However, he saw Gu Xin¡¯s gloomy expression, which made him more certain of his guess!


    ¡°Uncle, where¡¯s the thing?¡± Su Chen saw that Old Li did not return the rmendation letter to him and was in a daze for some reason, so he asked impatiently.


    Old Li felt even more guilty after hearing Su Chen¡¯s words.


    Fortunately, the other party seemed to only want to take back the things that little fatty gave himst time and did not have any intention of seeking revenge.


    This made Old Li let out a sigh of relief.


    After all, The Lighthouse still had the rule ofw. Even an evolved human could not casually beat up civilians!


    It was easy to do if they just wanted the items.


    After Gu Xin gave Old Li the pile of foodst time, as Old Li did not have time to eat much.


    ¡°This is all that¡¯s left. Convert the rest into contribution points. I¡¯ll transfer another 20 contribution points to you!¡±


    As he said this, Old Li stuffed all the food he had received before in front of Su Chen. He also connected his watch to Su Chen and transferred 20 contribution points to him.


    Su Chen was speechless.


    Was the welfare of thebat squad members that good?


    They had not even joined yet, and they were already giving out gifts!


    Somewhat dumbfounded, Su Chen epted the food that Old Li had brought out. As he wished, he obtained the training qualifications.


    However, this uncle seemed to be a little off!


    He looked at me with a guilty expression? Could it be that he was taking my benefits for himself?


    However, Su Chen did not ask any further. These gifts were originally a pleasant surprise.


    Joining thebat team was his main purpose.


    As for whether it was more or less, Su Chen did not really care.


    He saw that Su Chen had already settled the matter.


    Gu Xin walked up and patted his shoulder, indicating for Su Chen to wait for him for a while.


    Old Li, who had just heaved a sigh of relief, suddenly became nervous again.


    He had already returned the things. Why was this little fatty still here? There was no need to be so ruthless, right?


    ¡°I really don¡¯t have anything else. Why don¡¯t youe in and take a look?¡±


    Old Li had no choice but to speak first. If this matter was exposed to the higher-ups, his position would definitely be lost!


    Although the sry was not much, this job was still very leisurely.


    ¡°What are you talking about, uncle?¡±


    Gu Xin looked at Old Li with a bit of doubt, and then walked over with a mysterious expression.


    He threw his small bag onto Old Li¡¯s table.


    Old Li was shocked!


    Gu Xin lowered his voice and said leisurely, ¡°Uncle, I want to join Captain Gao Fei¡¯s team this time. Please ept this food first. If it¡¯s not enough, I¡¯ll make it up to you when I have money!¡±


    Old Li was once again speechless.


    Then, he realized that these two kids did not know anything at all!


    It was all because he was just scaring himself!


    An employee had two mission opportunities in a month, and they were all assigned to the same exploration team.


    If there were casualties, they would find someone else to make up for it.


    This was practicallymon sense in The Lighthouse. Who would have thought that this little fatty would be so stupid?!


    Reluctantly looking at the food in Su Chen¡¯s hands, he felt sorry for his 20 contribution points.


    Old Li then sadly epted Gu Xin¡¯s small bag.


    As Gu Xin saw that he had epted his things,Gu Xin immediately knew that it was a sess!


    He looked happy and gave Old Li a grateful look, then walked toward Su Chen.


    ¡°What¡¯s the matter? Why are you so happy?¡±


    Su Chen saw that after Gu Xin mysteriously said that, he seemed to have suddenly changed into a different person, so he asked curiously.


    ¡°Hmph, I¡¯ve joined Captain Gao Fei¡¯s team again! I pity my delicious food.¡±


    Gu Xin¡¯s face was filled with excitement. If Su Chen could awaken his special ability in the team, why was he not able to?!


    Compared to bing an Evolver, the food was like floating clouds!


    Did Su Chen not receive the benefits of thebat team just now?


    When he became an Evolver, would he becking food?


    After hearing Gu Xin¡¯s answer, Su Chen understood what had happened. It was nothing more than bribing an uncle from the administration department likest time.


    However, when he heard this news, Su Chen was quite happy. His original intention was to let Gu Xin continue to stay with him as a squad.


    He could still take care of him a little. Otherwise, he was really afraid that Gu Xin would not be willing to go and challenge an Origin Beast one-on-one¡­


    However, seeing Gu Xin scratching his head after he ran out of food, Su Chen still could not bear it.


    Thus, he stuffed all thepressed biscuits in his hand to Gu Xin.


    Su Chen did not like thepressed biscuits. The texture was too dry, so he would rather have other food instead.


    Seeing how good Su Chen was to him, Gu Xin was so moved that tears were about to fall!


    ¡°Su Chen! I, Gu Xin, can never repay you for your great kindness. You are my¡­ good brother for life!¡±


    Gu Xin stuffed food into his mouth and mumbled.


    ¡°Alright, eat your food.¡± Su Chen did not know whether tough or cry.


    Since both of them had finished dealing with the matter, they each returned to their own residences.


    Training would begin in the afternoon. Hence, Su Chen prepared to rest early.


    Tomorrow morning, he was going to go to the ck market to have a look.

 Chapter 17 - Eagle Claw

    Chapter 17: Eagle w


    <strong>Trantor:</strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion<strong>Editor:</strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion


    The rm clock on his wristwatch woke Su Chen up.


    Su Chen rubbed his drowsy eyes and carefully felt the changes in his body.


    As Su Chen stood up and stretched, the muscles and bones in his body made a series of cracking sounds.


    He only felt that his entire body wasfortable. His originally skinny body was filled with strength, and the outline of his muscles could be vaguely seen.


    His muscles were notrge as Su Chen¡¯s overall body still felt slender.


    ¡°The fusion rate should be close to 70% .¡±


    Su Chen carefully felt the condition of his body and muttered.


    .


    It was indeed worth waiting. The improvement brought by the bull¡¯s soul was almost like aplete transformation.


    Sitting up from the bed, Su Chen looked around. The room was only five square meters in size. Apart from the bed, there was almost nothing else that could fit in. Even if he wanted to find something here to test his strength, it would be unrealistic.


    Su Chen casually ate some of the leftover food from yesterday. He took the bull¡¯s horn given by Gao Fei and nned to go to the ck market.


    He had justpleted a mission yesterday. Su Chen still had 2,320 contribution points left, including the reward given by Shi Hao.


    He had earned a total of 2,000 contribution points from the previous mission.


    ¡°This is much more than what a maintenance worker earns.¡±


    When Su Chen was in charge of maintenance work, he only earned 500 contribution points a month, which was barely enough to cover his daily expenses.


    This was the first time he had so much money on hand. He should be able to buy a lot of suitable equipment on the ck market.


    With this thought in mind, Su Chen left his residence.


    Due to the reason that he was preparing to join thebat team, Su Chen had already reported to the maintenance departmentst night and resigned from that department.


    This was the first time in so many years that he slept until eight in the morning.


    Although it was not toote, the civilian area was already bustling with activity.


    Not long after, Su Chen arrived at the ck market.


    The ck market inside The Lighthouse was not the traditional ¡°ck market¡±. The reason for this name was very simple. The trading area in this civilian area had a uniform color of ck buildings.


    It seemed that The Lighthouse purposely painted it that way to distinguish the different areas. Su Chen did not know the specific reason, but everyone just called this ce the ck market.


    Many workers made their own equipment to sell in the ck market, or some harvest in the wastnd.


    As long as it did not affect the order of The Lighthouse, no one would care about these things.


    Although most of the equipment of thebat team members came from The Lighthouse¡¯s research institute, the equipment made by some ordinary workers was also useful.


    Many ideas would be adopted by The Lighthouse¡¯s research institute, and the producers would also receive a considerable amount of contribution points.


    Generally speaking, The Lighthouse still encouraged the behavior of these self-made equipment.


    Of course, in order to prevent idents duringbat from self-made equipment and endanger thepanions around them, all the equipment made would be tested by The Lighthouse.


    The ck market was one of the liveliest ces in The Lighthouse¡¯s civilian area. Most of the people who came here were workers who had been working in the exploration team for a long time.


    For them, the effective equipment could greatly enhance their self-protection ability.


    Thest time Su Chen made a self-made bullet, it came from the ck market in The Lighthouse.


    ¡°Boss!


    ¡°Yo, Little Su, you¡¯re here! How was thest mission?¡±


    The middle-aged man who was polishing his equipment behind the workbench raised his head and recognized Su Chen.


    ¡°It was okay. I got 2,000 contribution points,¡± Su Chen replied with a smile. The two of them were quite familiar with each other. Su Chen liked to tinker with some gadgets before, so he joined the maintenance department.


    He could be considered a regr customer of this small shop.


    ¡°Yo! That¡¯s a lot. It¡¯s good that you¡¯re okay. I heard that many exploration teams died in thest mission, so I was worried about you.¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s quite dangerous, but it¡¯s a blessing in disguise. I¡¯ve awakened my superpower, and now I¡¯m ready to join thebat sequence. This time, I¡¯m here to buy some equipment for the operation.¡±


    ¡°Hiss!¡± Hearing Su Chen¡¯s words, the boss sucked in a breath of cold air.


    If he remembered correctly, it was Su Chen¡¯s first missionst time, and he had awakened his superpower just like that?


    ¡°Not bad, Little Su. I¡¯ve long seen that your muscles and bones are extraordinary!¡±


    ¡°Come on, boss. I have extraordinary muscles and bones, but I¡¯ve never seen you give me a discount before!¡± Su Chen replied with a smile.


    ¡°Sigh, appreciation and business are two different things. This time, I¡¯ll give you a discount!¡± The boss grinned widely. If Su Chen could also help him advertise after using his equipment with good effects, why not make it a win-win situation?


    ¡°Then, which aspect of your superpower did you awaken?¡±


    After exchanging a few pleasantries, the boss got straight to the point.


    For different Evolvers, they naturally needed different equipment to improve theirbat strength.


    For example, the heavy machine gun of myriad spirit was like this. If Su Chen held that terrifying heavy machine gun, its power might not even be as powerful as a brick.


    ¡°My special ability is leaning toward the enhancement element. It can effectively enhance my strength. It can be considered a rtively ordinary special ability.¡±


    Su Chen recalled the characteristics of the bull and replied.


    ¡°Strength, huh¡­¡± The boss frowned and pondered for a moment.


    The enhancement element¡¯s special ability was not easy to equip with equipment. This was because the user of the enhancement element¡¯s special ability would more or less change the shape of their body after activating their special ability.


    At the very least, they would be like Su Chen, whose muscles would be stronger after activating their abilities.


    In this way, the equipment they wore would have good extensibility.


    ¡°Hmm¡­ how about this equipment?¡±


    The boss pondered for a moment, then brought Su Chen to the back storage area and took out an equipment from the counter.


    ¡°This is¡­¡±


    Su Chen looked at the hook-w-like equipment in the box. The overall appearance of this equipment was simr to an eagle¡¯s w. It was pitch-ck, and the tip of the w was iparably sharp, shing with a cold light.


    ¡°This is a hook w. I named it the Eagle¡¯s w, and it can be used for long-distance movement. The retractable alloy rope is hidden inside the hook w, and its bearing capacity is about one ton. The only drawback is that due to the material, this hookw is very heavy.¡±


    After hearing the boss¡¯s introduction, Su Chen¡¯s eyes lit up.


    This equipment could greatly increase his flexibility. The hook w that was activated in an instant could grab at almost any terrain. As for the weight, it was not a problem for the current Su Chen!


    The Eagle w was a little heavy in his hands. For other Evolvers, it might be a big burden.


    Su Chen put it on his left hand and tried it out in the experimental field prepared by the boss.


    ¡°Dang!¡±


    After the hook w was activated, it instantly pierced the alloy wall in front of him. As the rope contracted, Su Chen immediately flew toward the alloy wall.


    It was indeed a good item!


    Since there was no problem, Su Chen no longer hesitated and directly asked, ¡°How many contribution points?¡±


    ¡°Give me a discount and I¡¯ll give you 1,000 contribution points,¡± the boss said with a smile.


    Su Chen could not help but click his tongue. This piece of equipment would cost him half of his contribution points.


    However, the boss would not go so far as to cheat him. To use such a strong material to make it, it was about this price.


    ¡°1500 contribution points! Help me make another dagger. Use this material.¡±


    Su Chen gritted his teeth and handed the bull¡¯s horn over.


    The boss was instantly overjoyed. ¡°This bull¡¯s horn, I¡¯m afraid it¡¯s from a C-rank Origin Beast. This hardness¡­ Tsk, tsk.¡±


    ¡°It was from a D-rank Origin Beast, but boss, you have to get me a good dagger that can be deadly!¡±


    From the boss¡¯ praise, Su Chen felt that the value of the horn itself far exceeded the hook w. After all, it was the hardest material from an Origin Beast.


    ¡°You still don¡¯t trust my craftsmanship? Come back in two days to get it!¡±


    After the boss got the horn, it was as if he had obtained a treasure. He did not argue with Su Chen anymore and directly started working on the workbench.


    Seeing this, Su Chen did not stay long.


    ¡°As expected, I still can¡¯t keep the money. Almost all the contribution points I just got are gone.¡±


    After leaving the shop, Su Chen could not help but sigh.

 Chapter 18

    Chapter 18: The Teacher is Gao Fei?


    <strong>Trantor:</strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion<strong>Editor:</strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion


    ¡°I¡¯ve been a little busy every day.¡±


    Su Chenined.


    After strolling around the ck market for a while, it was almost time.


    After a quick meal, Su Chen walked toward the training location.


    The training location was not in the civilian area, but on the upper floor of the lighthouse.


    .


    The specific location had been sent to Su Chen¡¯s wristwatch. Although the function of this wristwatch was not as much as a fighter¡¯s wristband, it was still consideredplete. The basicmunication function could still be guaranteed.


    When Su Chen officially joined thebat team, there would naturally be uniform equipment.


    With the electronic proof, Su Chen smoothly arrived at the upper level of the lighthouse, the training area.


    Then, he saw¡­ Gao Fei.


    Su Chen never thought that Gao Fei would actually be in charge of the rookie¡¯s pre-battle training!


    ¡°Hello, Captain.¡± Seeing Gao Fei, Su Chen also greeted him with familiarity.


    Seeing Su Chen arrive, Gao Fei nodded slightly in response.


    Seeing Su Chen, he felt a slight headache.


    It was not because of what Su Chen had done.


    It was because of Li Mo.


    Gao Fei regretted mentioning Su Chen¡¯s matter to Li Mo.


    Li Mo knew that someone like him was especially interested in Su Chen after awakening his special ability in battle.


    In addition, Gao Fei said that Su Chen had goodbat skills. Therefore, Li Mo had the idea to recruit Su Chen into the first squad.


    Gao Fei had wanted to observe Su Chen to give him some time to grow up. However, Li Mo suddenly made such a move. Therefore, he directly made Su Chen abat reserve member of the third exploration team.


    Would Li Mo cut off a good seedling?


    There was no such thing!


    Su Chen was an employee who had worked in the third exploration team before. How could he be poached at this juncture?


    Hence, yesterday, Su Chen received a rmendation letter from Mark.


    This time, there were still quite a lot of rookies in the training. There were a total of 17 rookies, and they were all Evolvers who had recently awakened their special abilities.


    This was because The Lighthouse needed one to be 14 years old before they could inject gic medicine, and this training was held once a month.


    While the outside world was undergoing changes, the number of Evolvers was also increasing.


    As members of abat sequence, not only did they need to have a clear understanding of the wastnd, but they also needed to systematically learn how to cooperate with each other in battle, executemands, and so on.


    This was also the reason why The Lighthouse started training.


    Although everyone was participating in the training together, it was not certain if they would be able to join thebat sequence. Su Chen, who had a letter of rmendation, was an exception.


    Many Evolvers might have weak abilities, and there were many people who were not suitable to join thebat sequence.


    ¡­


    A momentter,Su Chen randomly found a seat in the spacious hall. Just as he sat down, a sweet-looking girl walked up to him.


    ¡°Hey, I saw you greet the teacher just now. Do you know teacher Gao Fei?¡±


    Su Chen was about to find a morefortable position to listen to the lecture when he heard the girl¡¯s voice.


    ¡°Teacher?¡± Su Chen looked at Gao Fei¡¯s appearance on the podium. Gao Fei took off his half face mask and changed into a casual outfit. He still looked elegant and cold.


    If it was not for the girl¡¯s reminder, Su Chen would not have thought that Gao Fei was now a teacher.


    He did not know what this lighthouse was thinking, letting him, abat-sequence captain, be a teacher.


    ¡°I used to work in Captain Gao Fei¡¯sbat squad,¡± Su Chen said calmly.


    Hearing that, the girl¡¯s eyes lit up, and she immediately revealed a surprised expression. She eximed, ¡°Wow! So good! I want to join Teacher Gao Fei¡¯s squad too. He¡¯s so handsome!¡±


    Su Chen was a little speechless. He did not expect that a middle-aged man like Gao Fei would have so many fangirls.


    ¡°So what if he knows the teacher? Could it be that Captain Gao Fei would let him directly join thebat team?¡±


    Just as Su Chen was chatting with the girl, a disdainful voice was heard.


    Su Chen nced at it. It was a boy with a Mohican hairstyle.


    Captain Gao Fei really invited Su Chen, but what could he do?


    Su Chen could not be bothered with this person at all.


    He was just an idiot.


    He carelessly dealt with the star-chasing girl.


    Su Chen also straightened his sitting posture.


    It was his first lesson after all, so he nned to listen to it properly.


    After all, he knew too little about the wastnd.


    During thest mission, he had already clearly felt the difference between him and the other team members.


    He was even inferior to some of the more experienced staff members.


    ¡°Cough, cough.¡±


    Gao Fei, who was standing on the podium, cleared his throat to attract everyone¡¯s attention.


    ¡°Get ready to begin. Sit properly!¡±


    Su Chen could clearly feel a cold killing intent from these words!


    Holy sh*t!


    Was this a teacher?


    Was it really suitable for Gao Fei to be The Lighthouse¡¯s teacher?


    One sentence!


    It made the people under the podium feel a sense of solemnity.


    Su Chen clearly saw that the little fan girl sitting next to him was so scared that she almost fell off her seat!


    It seemed that the reaction of the students was not quite right.


    Gao Fei felt that his headache seemed to be more serious. This was his first ss.


    The reason given by The Lighthouse was that the changes in the wastnd were too fast. It would be easier for the rookies to understand if a fighter like him, who had personally experienced it, exined the situation


    When he asked why he did not call Li Mo, the other party replied that he was dealing with official matters of thebat team and did not have the time.


    What official matters could he, Li Mo, handle?!


    Thebat team would only have matters to confirm with Li Mo before carrying out the operation. The next operation was still half a month away!


    What could he, Li Mo, have to do during this period of time?!


    However, Li Mo was indeed the manager of thebat sequence. Even if Gao Fei was not convinced, there was nothing he could do about it.


    After brewing his emotions and slightly restraining his killing intent, Gao Fei directly entered the main topic of the day.


    Right now, he only wanted to end this torture as soon as possible.


    ¡°The content of the first lesson is about the ssification of superpowers.¡±


    When they heard Gao Fei¡¯s voice, everyone reacted. They did not expect that Li Mo would mention such a topic in the first lesson.


    This was one of the topics that everyone was concerned about.


    Therefore, Su Chen also pricked up his ears. He did not know how strong he was with his current ability.

 Chapter 19

    Chapter 19: Superpowers


    <strong>Trantor:</strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion<strong>Editor:</strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion


    ¡°The ssification of superpowers refers to the strength of superpowers.


    ¡°To a certain extent, this also represents the strength of an Evolver. Next is the difference in battle attainments.


    ¡°In the wastnd, having superpowers is a type of weapon to deal with Origin Beasts.¡±


    Gao Fei¡¯s exnation was simple and easy to understand. Su Chen listened with relish.


    ¡°And, after an Evolver awakens, superpowers are usually divided into three aspects!¡±


    Gao Fei emphasized his words, indicating that this was the main point of the exnation.


    ¡°The first type is an enhanced special ability. The user can use the special ability to strengthen themselves, increasing theirbat power in a short period of time..¡±


    ¡°Mark!¡±


    ¡°Here!¡±


    As a familiar voice sounded, Su Chen realized that Wan Ling and Mark were both sitting in the back row of the hall.


    Obviously, they had been called in by Gao Fei to give examples.


    Su Chen turned around and saw that the smile on Mark¡¯s face had not disappeared yet. With one look, he could tell that he was secretlyughing at Gao Fei¡¯s performance just now.


    They probably had not seen their captain give a lecture before. However, the deterrence of Gao Fei¡¯s lecture was indeed extraordinary.


    At the very least, Su Chen had not seen anyone whispering under the podium yet.


    As Mark stepped onto the stage, Gao Fei gestured for Mark to use his special ability. In an instant, ayer of hard carapace covered Mark¡¯s body.


    Gao Fei held a teaching staff in his hand as he continuously pointed at Mark¡¯s body. Mark¡¯s embarrassed appearance was ratherical.


    ¡®If it was not for the solemn atmosphere, I, Su Chen, would have smiled in respect!¡¯


    ¡°A special ability like this is an enhancement type special ability. Of course, the enhancement isn¡¯t limited to this. It has strength, agility, and acts as a kind of defense.


    ¡°At the same time, the enhanced superpower is also the superpower that existsmonly in most of the awakened people.¡±


    With Mark as an example, the audience instantly understood. It had to be said that although it looked fierce, Gao Fei¡¯s exnation was still very urate.


    Su Chen¡¯s current situation was also an enhanced superpower. However, he currently had two superpowers. One was his enhanced vision, and the other was the strength of a brute bull.


    ¡°This is a spirit-type ability, Wan Ling!¡±


    ¡°Yes!¡±


    Wan Ling¡¯s crisp voice rang out.


    Then, he walked to the podium. Mark¡¯s face was flushed red.


    He was being used as an experimental subject to be knocked around in front of so many people. Did he, Mark, not care about his reputation?


    However, Wan Ling had also gone up. This made Mark feel much more at ease!


    After Wan Ling walked to the podium, she directly activated her ability. In the void, she condensed numerous weapons that were formed from pure spirit power.


    These weapons were filled with a faint blue light, and the visual effect was extremely shocking.


    The audience below the stage immediately let out a wave of exmations.


    Mark, who had just returned to his seat, had an expression of having eaten sh*t. Why was Wan Ling able to act cool just by going up?! He, Mark, was merely being pointed at!


    However, due to Gao Fei¡¯s tyrannical power, he did not dare to make a sound toin.


    Even Su Chen could not help but raise his eyebrows. He did not know which Origin Beast this special ability could be obtained from. Without saying anything, it looked cool!


    As for why Wan Ling did not use this kind of weapon to attack in battle, Su Chen guessed that it was probably because it was not practical.


    This was because Wan Ling¡¯s physical fitness was not considered strong, and long-range attacks were the most suitable.


    Gao Fei, who was on the stage, also said, ¡°Spirit-type abilities are the rarest type of abilities. After an Evolver awakens this type of ability, the direction of evolution is fundamentally different from the direction of physical evolution.


    ¡°As for this type of special ability, because there are too few possessors, The Lighthouse is unable toe up with an urate theory.


    ¡°Thest type is the elemental type special ability.¡±


    This time, Gao Fei himself was the possessor of the elemental type special ability, so there was naturally no need for others to give examples.


    As Gao Fei activated his special ability, waves of gentle wind elements instantly blew across the sealed hall. This type of special ability seemed to be able to create elements out of thin air, causing Su Chen to be continuously surprised.


    This was not logical!


    However, what Gao Fei said next dispelled Su Chen¡¯s doubts.


    ¡°Elemental special abilities contain all kinds of elements, including thunder, poison, fire, and so on.


    ¡°However, this kind of special ability isn¡¯t created out of thin air. For example, I can¡¯t use my wind elemental special ability in a vacuum environment.¡±


    With Gao Fei¡¯s exnation, everyone came to a realization. If there was no such restriction, this kind of special ability would be too heaven-defying.


    ¡°Abilities can be divided into these three directions.


    ¡°The level of a superpower is how much energy that can be stored in an Evolver¡¯s body. The amount of energy can affect the strength of the superpower and the duration of the user¡¯s battle.


    ¡°Based on this, the levels are divided into levels 1-9. This instrument is used to test the level of a superpower. Next, we can begin the level test. The relevant data will be sorted and analyzed by The Lighthouse. Finally, they will determine if you are suitable to join abat team.¡±


    ¡°Ability level test!¡±


    Everyone, including Su Chen, did not expect The Lighthouse to have such an instrument. In the past, they thought that Evolvers were very powerful, but they did not expect that there would be an instrument that could directly test them.


    As Gao Fei¡¯s voice fell, everyone was eager to try.

 Chapter 20

    Chapter 20: Psionic Ability Level Test!


    <strong>Trantor:</strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion<strong>Editor:</strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion


    ¡°Evolvers can periodically inject evolution potions to increase their psionic ability level.


    ¡°After each mission, The Lighthouse will measure the performance of the exploration team. Those who perform well will receive an evolution potion.


    ¡°As the production of evolution potions is scarce, this method is adopted. The strong will be stronger and the weak will be weaker.


    ¡°The strong prey on the weak. This is the rule of the wastnd era!¡±


    Gao Fei¡¯s voice was like a warning bell ringing in everyone¡¯s minds.


    It was not that after bing an Evolver, one could be stronger without limits. Every powerful Evolver was born from killing Origin Beasts time and time again.


    .


    Bing an Evolver was just the beginning. Everyone had to rely on evolution potions to increase their ability levels.


    In this way, even if an Evolver wanted to be stronger, they could not refuse The Lighthouse¡¯s mission.


    Of course, Su Chen was an exception.


    Su Chen could be stronger by fusing with beast souls, which meant that he had bypassed the path of the evolution potion.


    Therefore, he was not very concerned about this problem.


    He joined the exploration team for one purpose, which was toe into contact with more types of source beasts. These Origin Beasts were the source of Su Chen¡¯s strength!


    Looking at the precise instrument beside Gao Fei, everyone had expectant looks on their faces.


    They were still very interested in what level their strength was at.


    ¡°Next, those who have been selected, please step forward and ce your right hand on the special ability testing instrument.¡±


    After saying that, Gao Fei pointed at a touch panel on the instrument, indicating for everyone to ce their hands on that position.


    ¡°Teacher, what level are the Evolvers in the exploration team?¡±


    Just as Gao Fei was about to call the roll, the fangirl next to Su Chen asked.


    Judging from the expressions on everyone¡¯s faces, they were also very concerned about the answer to this question.


    Seeing that, Gao Fei did not keep everyone in suspense. After all, the level of superpowers was not a secret.


    Since the rookies wanted to see it, it was fine to let them know the difference. They did not want to die of arrogance after they got to the wastnd.


    With this thought in mind, Gao Fei motioned for Mark to go up and conduct the power level test.


    As Mark ced his right hand on the power level test tform, a bright light lit up.


    When everyone looked at the big screen on the instrument, a huge number 5 appeared on the screen.


    This meant that Mark¡¯s superpower was level five.


    At this moment, Gao Fei spoke,¡°You may not know what level five superpower means, but you will understand it after you finish the test. However, I can clearly tell you that the increase of each level in the superpower level will result in a geometric change in strength.¡±


    Having said that, Gao Fei began to let the rookies step forward one by one to test.


    ¡°Level one beginner!¡±


    ¡°Level one peak!¡±


    ¡°Level one beginner!¡±


    ¡­


    A few rookies stepped forward one after another, and the results of the test were astonishingly simr.


    It was nothing more than the difference in brightness, which meant that there was a certain difference in strength within level one.


    ¡°Level two beginner!¡±


    Finally, after eight or nine people, a different number appeared!


    What surprised Su Chen was that the level two newbie was actually the fangirl who was sitting beside him!


    With the appearance of a level two Evolver, the little fangirl who was standing on the podium immediately attracted everyone¡¯s attention. For the first time, whispers sounded in the hall.


    ¡°F*ck, she looks soft and weak, but her superpower is actually level two.¡±


    ¡°Doesn¡¯t that mean that she might have an elemental or spirit superpower?¡±


    ¡°If that¡¯s the case, then she can¡¯t be the strongest in our batch, right?¡±


    ¡­


    When the result appeared, even Wan Ling took a few more nces at the little fangirl.


    However, she did not say much. Talent was not the decisive factor for survival in the wastnd.


    A better talent only meant that you would encounter fewer difficulties in the early stages.


    As for the specifics, it still depended on one¡¯s performance.


    However, it was clear that this little girl¡¯s talent was considered pretty good among this batch of rookies.


    After her, everyone¡¯s rating returned to the familiar level one.


    ¡°Zhang Yi.¡±


    Gao Fei continued to recite the neer¡¯s name. As he finished speaking, the boy with the Mohican hairstyle stood up.


    His face was filled with confidence.


    His father was once a member of the battle sequence, and Evolvers were more sensitive to energy fluctuations. Therefore, ording to his father, Zhang Yi¡¯s ability level would definitely be above level two.


    Therefore, Zhang Yi was naturally extremely confident.


    In his eyes, only that little fangirl¡¯s talent was not bad.


    She had a level two ability when she first awakened. For a newbie, the process of carrying out a mission would be much easier.


    Before Zhang Yi walked onto the stage, his hands trembled as he pressed on the testing device.


    Although he had his father¡¯s guarantee, he was still a little nervous at this moment.


    ¡°Level two peak.¡±


    Gao Fei looked at the results of the test equipment and spoke slowly.


    The brilliance that Zhang Yi produced during the test was clearly much brighter than that of the little fangirl.


    It meant that although both of them were level two, the energy within Zhang Yi¡¯s body was much stronger.


    ¡°Hu.¡± After seeing the results, Zhang Yi let out a light breath.


    Then, he walked down from the podium and even gave Su Chen a yful look.


    The reason was very simple.


    Up until now, only he and Su Chen were left in the hall who had not gotten tested. After Zhang Yi had finished, it was naturally Su Chen¡¯s turn.


    ¡°It¡¯s finally my turn.¡± Su Chen sighed.


    He did not know how Captain Gao Fei had made this list and ced himst.


    Before walking onto the stage, Su Chen ced his hand on the tform.


    He did not feel nervous at all, because Su Chen knew that after absorbing the bull¡¯s soul, his energy level would definitely not be too low.


    ¡°Level three beginner.¡±


    Gao Fei¡¯s tone was still calm, but there was a hint of surprise in his eyes. Su Chen¡¯s superpower was rtively ordinary, but his talent at the beginning of his awakening was a little shocking.


    Wan Ling¡¯s performance was still considered normal. Although she was surprised, she did not lose herposure. When she had awakened her superpower, her power level was also at level three, not much different from Su Chen¡¯s.


    On the contrary, Mark widened his eyes in shock and muttered, ¡°F*ck, even a rookie is so strong. How can a senior like me still act cool?¡±


    He could not help but say this. As soon as he finished speaking, he realized that he had said something wrong. Seeing Gao Fei¡¯s unfriendly gaze, Mark immediately shut up and acted as if nothing had happened.


    Mark¡¯s performance had always been like this. How could the people below the stage sit still?!


    The discussions continued.


    Zhang Yi had a shocked expression on his face.


    Level three beginner was a level that could only be reached by injecting a third gene reagent.


    It was also the the highest level amongst the Evolvers and Su Chen was able to reach this level at the start of his awakening, so how could it not be shocking?

 Chapter 21

    Chapter 21: Lighthouse Legend, Li Mo.


    ¡°Uh¡­ is there something wrong with my level?¡±


    Su Chen saw the constipated look on Mark¡¯s face and asked quietly.


    When Mark heard this, he was even more furious. He gritted his teeth and spat out a word, ¡°Get lost!¡±


    ¡°Okay!¡± Su Chen walked down the tform happily and sat back down.


    It was not that Su Chen did not know what it meant for him to be a level three when he first awakened. He simply thought that it was interesting to joke with Mark.


    Even if he did not know about the level of his special ability before, just look at the results today.


    Most Evolvers were only at level one when they first awakened.. Su Chen knew that his test results were pretty good.


    Currently, the fusion rate of his bull¡¯s soul was still at 70%. After theplete fusion, he should be able to reach the middle-stage of level three.


    However, Su Chen was not too excited.


    Strictly speaking, he was not at the beginning of his awakening.


    Before this, Su Chen had already fused with the eagle¡¯s soul. He estimated that the energy in his body when he fused with the eagle soul should be around level one.


    However, the special ability brought by the eagle soul was too simple. It only enhanced Su Chen¡¯s eyesight. He was too embarrassed to say that this was also a special ability.


    However, this was also rted to the fact that Su Chen did not absorb the energy directly from the eagle-type Origin Beast.


    After fusing with the bull¡¯s energy, including the special ability brought by the eagle¡¯s soul, Su Chen guessed that the key to his body¡¯s evolution was to absorb energy.


    ¡°I¡¯m afraid the evolution drug given by The Lighthouse is also rted to origin ability.¡± Su Chen muttered.


    After Su Chen finished his test, he immediately became the focus of all the neers.


    The little fangirl once again came to Su Chen¡¯s side and asked, ¡°Could it be that joining Captain Gao Fei¡¯s team can increase the level of my special ability?¡±


    Hearing this, Su Chen looked at the little fangirl beside him with a face of disbelief.


    How could this have anything to do with Captain Gao Fei?


    Could it not be because of my own hard work?


    You only have eyes for Gao Fei!


    However, Su Chen thought about it. The reason why he was able to quickly increase his strength was really rted to Gao Fei.


    If he had not joined Captain Gao Fei¡¯s team, he probably would not have had the chance to fuse with a second beast soul.


    Thinking of this, Su Chen replied, ¡°Hmm¡­ barely.¡±


    Upon hearing Su Chen¡¯s words, the little fangirl looked at Gao Fei with even more admiration. A bunch of little stars were about to appear in her eyes.


    ¡°But you¡¯re also very powerful. Let¡¯s formally meet. My name is Nono.¡± The little fangirl changed the topic.


    Su Chen turned his head and saw the red-haired Nono smiling like a flower. She was extending her little hand toward him.


    Su Chen politely shook his hand and said, ¡°My name is Su Chen.¡±


    Although they had already known each other¡¯s names when Gao Fei called out their names, the two still formally got to know each other.


    Just as Nono was about to pester Su Chen to ask more questions¡­


    Gao Fei finally opened his mouth and pulled the helpless Su Chen out of his misery.


    ¡°Everyone already knows the test results. Now do you understand the dangers in the wastnd?


    ¡°If you don¡¯t, I can tell you about the casualties of the previous exploration of the wastnd.¡±


    As Gao Fei¡¯s voice fell, the hall quickly quieted down.


    Most of the people present had never carried out an exploration mission like Su Chen.


    Therefore, they knew very little about the environment in the wastnd. The fundamental reason why The Lighthouse started the training was also because of this group of rookies.


    Seeing that everyone had quietened down, Gao Fei spoke slowly, but his voice was a little heavier.


    ¡°Thest mission, number A-4399.


    ¡°A total of ten exploration teams were dispatched.


    ¡°Including 47 Evolvers and 139 workers.


    ¡°The number of survivors, 16 Evolvers and 17 workers.¡±


    ¡°A total of five teams¡­ werepletely sacrificed, and no one survived.¡±


    As Gao Fei¡¯s voice fell, the hall was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.


    ¡°Gulp¡­ Gulp.¡±


    A lot of throbbing sounds appeared in the hall.


    Gao Fei did not give any video information about the exploration of the wastnd. In fact, any video information about the team that died in battle could not be brought back.


    There were only a few simple and cold numbers, which meant that hundreds of lives had been lost in a short day.


    Just these numbers alone made the rookies present feel the coldness and ruthlessness of the wastnd.


    Su Chen¡¯s gaze was solemn.


    After thest exploration, he only knew that each team in that operation had suffered heavy casualties. However, due to the team led by Gao Fei, there were not too many casualties.


    Su Chen also did not expect the casualties behind the operation to be so tragic.


    In order to appease the people, the specific casualties would not be reported to everyone.


    Gao Fei chose to exin the casualties he knew so that everyone could clearly understand the cruelty of the wastnd.


    Facts proved that Gao Fei¡¯s approach was not a problem.


    Some people were sweating profusely, their lips were white, and they were afraid of the mission they were about to face.


    Some of them had solemn expressions, and their eyes were filled with fighting spirit.


    However, the same thing happened.


    After knowing the dangers of exploring the wastnd, no one dared to underestimate their next move!


    Gao Fei spoke again.


    ¡°The initial talent can give you a better environment for growth, but it doesn¡¯t exin everything.


    ¡°In the wastnd, survival is the ultimate goal. Only by surviving can you be stronger.


    ¡°The simplest example is General Li Mo. I believe everyone knows that.¡±


    Everyone nodded in unison.


    Li Mo was practically a legend within The Lighthouse. Almost everyone in The Lighthouse knew about the man who was able to sessfully bring back resources from the wastnd before bing an Evolver.


    ¡°Li Mo didn¡¯t obtain any special abilities after injecting the gene reagent.¡±


    ¡°Hiss!¡±


    As Gao Fei¡¯s voice faded, everyone present sucked in a breath of cold air.


    Li Mo was practically The Lighthouse¡¯s strongestbat power. When he had awakened, he had not even obtained any special ability!


    Everyone present had some understanding of what kind of existence an Origin Beast was.


    A bat with a wingspan of over ten meters, a fierce tiger that weighed tens of tons!


    These types of Origin Beasts could be seen almost everywhere in the wastnd!


    With just a human body, they could not imagine how Li Mo survived in such an environment.


    Let alone obtaining the same strength as today!


    This rumor about Li Mo wasmon in The Lighthouse, but not many people believed it.


    However, when this news was confirmed by Gao Fei¡¯s mouth, it gave them a great shock!


    As for the man whom he had only met once when he returned to The Lighthouse, Su Chen¡¯s heart was filled with admiration.


    He knew better than the other rookies how dangerous the wastnd was.


    Even with the eagle¡¯s soul in his possession, it was extremely difficult for Su Chen to survive the previous mission.


    If not for his enhanced eyesight, he might have died when he faced the petrified centipede group.


    ¡°Su Chen!¡±


    ¡°Here!¡±


    Just as Su Chen was deep in thought, Gao Fei called out his name.


    Just after Su Chen responded, he immediately understood what Gao Fei wanted him to do.


    ¡°So soon, I will be used as a teaching material.¡± Su Chen thought helplessly in his heart.

 Chapter 22

    Chapter 22: Helpless Su Chen


    Hearing Gao Fei call out Su Chen¡¯s name, everyone¡¯s eyes were filled with doubt. They could not understand why Gao Fei would mention Su Chen at this time.


    The voices of discussion in low voices kept rising and falling.


    ¡°Why would teacher Gao still mention Su Chen? Could it be that he wants to praise his talent?¡±


    ¡°It can¡¯t be that bad. If he wanted to praise him, he would have done so long ago. Moreover, teacher Gao just said that talent is not a decisive factor in a person¡¯s strength.¡±


    ¡°Then why did he call him that?¡±


    ¡°Could it be¡­ that Su Chen has some rtionship with General Li Mo?¡±


    ¡°Hiss! Now that you mention it, it¡¯s really possible!¡±


    .


    ¡°General Li Mo should be in his forties this year. Although Su Chen is a little younger, it¡¯s still reasonable!¡±


    ¡°No wonder General Li Mo didn¡¯t have any information about his descendants. So that¡¯s how it is. The case has been solved. Su Chen must be General Li Mo¡¯s child!¡±


    ¡°F*ck, could this be the reason why Su Chen¡¯s talent is so outstanding?¡±?


    ¡­


    As everyone discussed, the situation became more and more ridiculous. Su Chen¡¯s face was filled with ck lines.


    ¡°Cough, cough.¡±


    Gao Fei clearly heard everyone¡¯s discussion. He lightly coughed twice to stop everyone¡¯s discussion.


    As the most famous Evolver in The Lighthouse, it was not appropriate for them to discuss rumors like this.


    After coughing twice, Gao Fei finally got to the main topic.


    ¡°Su Chen, as you all saw earlier, his energy level at the beginning of the awakening was at level three.


    ¡°However, what you all didn¡¯t know was that when Su Chen injected the gene reagent, he didn¡¯t obtain his special ability. Instead, he only awakened his special ability during thest mission, when he was in a desperate situation.¡±


    As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was shocked!


    It was fine if Li Mo was so heaven-defying, but why was there someone among this group of rookies who had simr experiences!


    Was this the reason why Gao Fei had mentioned Su Chen at this time?!


    For someone with such talent, when he injected the gene reagent, he actually did not obtain any special ability!


    They originally thought that after Su Chen obtained his special ability, he had already injected the evolution gene reagent through his connections.


    However, the reality waspletely different from what they had imagined.


    Gao Fei did not pay attention to everyone¡¯s surprise and continued speaking.


    ¡°During thest mission, Su Chen joined the exploration team as an employee.¡±


    ¡°At that time, he hadn¡¯t awakened his ability yet. Just by relying on his own physical fitness, he was able to assist thebat team in repelling the petrified centipede tide and contribute in the process of fighting against D-rank Origin Beasts!¡±


    Gao Fei¡¯s words were undoubtedly a heavy bomb that suddenly exploded in the crowd!


    For a moment, everyone¡¯s expressions were filled with disbelief!


    ¡°What! He was actually able to fight against an Origin Beast without awakening his superpower?¡±


    ¡°Holy sh*t! What kind of monster is he?!¡±


    ¡°Did you all hear what Teacher Gao said? Teacher Gao said that he contributed in the process of fighting against a D-rank Origin Beast, not Su Chen directly fighting a D-rank Origin Beast! But even so, Su Chen is already very powerful.¡±


    ¡°Indeed. If it were me, I probably wouldn¡¯t be able to think of any way to face a D-rank Origin Beast.¡±


    ¡­


    Although they had yet to see the Origin Beasts in the wastnd, but for the purpose of teaching, The Lighthouse would capture some E-rank Origin Beasts and imprison them.


    The eagle-type Origin Beast that Su Chen had seen before was one of them.


    Therefore, they had seen the terrifying defensive power of these mutated monsters.


    Ordinary heavy weapons were unable to seriously injure these monsters and yet Su Chen had done it. Gao Fei would not lie to a newbie on such a matter. There was no need for that at all!


    The fact that Su Chen was able to cause damage to the Origin Beasts without his special ability, or to say, affect the battle situation between Evolvers and Origin Beasts, was in itself a proof of his strength!


    ¡°Strong.¡± Zhang Yi¡¯s pupils slightly trembled as he said in a low voice.


    He no longer looked at Su Chen with contempt in his eyes.


    Even when Su Chen¡¯s test result was at level three, Zhang Yi did not have much of a reaction.


    This was because this did not mean that Su Chen was much stronger than him.


    When Gao Fei said this, Zhang Yi finally understood the gap between him and Su Chen!


    At the very least, when facing a D-rank Origin Beast, Zhang Yi could not think of any way to influence the oue of the battle without his special ability!


    Why would Gao Fei mention this matter at this time?


    The reason was very simple!


    Gao Fei only wanted to tell them one thing. Talent could not decide everything.


    As long as they could survive the numerous battles, that was the only way to be stronger!


    Gao Fei looked at everyone¡¯s shocked expressions and was very satisfied.


    As a legendary figure in the lighthouse, Li Mo had to go through many hardships to stand at that height.


    He could not bring any real pressure to the rookies.


    This was because the distance between the two was too far.


    Su Chen was a rookie himself, almost at the same starting line as them.


    Su Chen¡¯s personal experience could make the rookies present feel the same way!


    Rookies needed enough pressure to have the motivation to grow stronger. Su Chen was the perfect example!


    To Su Chen¡¯s surprise, Nono did not bother him after hearing the news. Instead, she sat in her original position with her head lowered. No one knew what she was thinking about.


    Su Chen was happy to be quiet.


    Even if Gao Fei told him about his deeds, it would be difficult for him to finish this training quietly.


    He was very clear about the reason why Captain Gao Fei brought him out at this time.


    It was nothing more than to serve as a role model for the many rookies to see.


    Although Su Chen¡¯s special ability was quite special, it would be very difficult for others to catch up with his growth pace.


    However, since Gao Fei had already given his example, it was impossible for him to hide his strength and embarrass Gao Fei at this time.


    If he remembered correctly, there should be a confrontation segmentter in this training.


    It was used to temper the newbie¡¯s battle awareness.


    ¡°It seems like I¡¯m bullying others by participating in this training.¡±


    Su Chen sighed helplessly.


    This was not him wanting to bully others, but it was purely Gao Fei who forced him!


    Gao Fei was obviously just watching the show and did not mind the fuss. Before everyone was done being shocked, he spoke again.


    ¡°Today¡¯s theory ss is over. Starting from tomorrow, we will begin actualbat practice. Those who can defeat Su Chen during the practice will receive an evolution potion that I personally sponsor.


    ¡°ss dismissed!¡±


    Su Chen¡¯s eyes widened. Was Gao Fei trying to give him trouble?


    Was he not afraid that Su Chen would passivelypete and make him lose a few evolution potions?


    Even a veteran evolver like Gao Fei would not be able to exchange for many evolution potions, right?


    He could clearly feel that everyone present, including Nono, was looking at him as if they were looking at a brand new evolution potion!

 Chapter 23

    Chapter 23: The Cusp of The Storm


    When Gao Fei said this, it was the same as pushing Su Chen to the cusp of the storm.


    This way, even if he wanted to keep a low profile and y these few days of pre-battle training in peace, it would be difficult!


    After ss, Gao Fei also sent some information about this training to everyone.


    The gist was that everyone who participated in the training needed to obtain sufficient points in the actualbat practice.


    Every time a battle was sessful, they would obtain a point. Those who reached 10 points would be able to sessfully graduate. At that time, there would be a captain of thebat team to select the new recruits.


    Only those who could sessfully graduate would be able to enter thebat sequence.


    This was considered one of the few pieces of good news for Su Chen.


    He had Gao Fei¡¯s rmendation letter in hand.. He did not need topete with others for points. He only needed to go through the training process to be able to smoothly enter.


    Originally, he wanted to keep a low profile and directly enter the battle sequence.


    However, Gao Fei¡¯s method directly deprived Su Chen of the right to paddle.


    ¡®Now, there are probably many people who came to challenge me.


    ¡®I just picked a few lucky people to intentionally lose to the captain. He should be able to understand me. Just treat it as if I¡¯m too tired to fight anymore.¡¯


    Su Chen thought as he walked out of the hall.


    When he walked out of the hall, he saw three familiar figures.


    Gao Fei, Wan Ling, and Mark, who was gloating.


    Seeing Su Chen suffer, Mark somehow felt a sense of inexplicablefort!


    Gao Fei looked at Su Chen¡¯s depressed expression and naturally knew what Su Chen was thinking.


    Gao Fei smiled and said, ¡°Didn¡¯t I just find something for you to do? Otherwise, with your strength, joining this training would be like bullying a newbie.


    ¡°Oh right, if you identally lose, the money for the evolution potions will be deducted from your future contribution points.¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t, captain, don¡¯t smile. Usually, when you look serious, you still have a sense of security. If you smile now, I feel that nothing good will happen,¡± Su Chen replied unhappily.


    After today¡¯s ss, he roughly knew Gao Fei¡¯s character.


    Although Gao Fei looked serious on the outside, he was swift and decisive when carrying out missions.


    However, usually, he would have cheated many of his team members.


    When he heard Su Chen¡¯s words, Gao Fei did not feel the slightest bit embarrassed.


    The future members of the third team needed more training.


    When he saw that Su Chen seemed a little unconvinced, he said, ¡°Aren¡¯t the members of our third team all like this? Otherwise, why do you think I have so few subordinates?¡±


    When he heard Gao Fei¡¯s words, Su Chen raised his head in surprise and looked at Wan Ling and Mark.


    When they saw Su Chen¡¯s gaze, the two spread their hands together, indicating that Gao Fei was telling the truth.


    Only then did Su Chen understand.


    This was one of the criteria for joining the team?


    Mark added, ¡°Captain Gao Fei is not looking at talent.


    ¡°When I participated in the training, my initial superpower level was level one. There were two peak level two people in the same batch as me.


    ¡°However, at the end of thepetition, I was the one with the highest points.¡±


    Su Chen had never looked down on Mark, but now that Mark had said this, he was still a little surprised.


    Sure enough, did Captain Gao Fei not have any weak members under him?


    Just as Su Chen¡¯s impression of Mark¡¯s cheeky face changed, Wan Ling spoke up.


    ¡°Mark is indeed right. In the actualbat training, he did hold on until the end and became the winner.


    ¡°It was only because of his crazy defense like a turtle shell that he won after others beat him until he was exhausted.¡±


    Su Chen was speechless.


    Hearing Wan Ling¡¯s words, Mark was displeased on the spot. ¡°Isn¡¯t my high defense also proof of my strength?!


    ¡°If they can¡¯t break my defense, doesn¡¯t that mean that I¡¯m stronger than them?¡±


    Seeing Mark retort, Wan Ling mercilessly added, ¡°If crouching on the ground and holding your head while being beaten for three hours is considered strong, then you¡¯re right.¡±


    ¡°Pfft!¡± Su Chen could not help butugh when he heard this.


    Seeing this scene, Gao Fei held his forehead and interrupted the two who were arguing.


    Both of them could be consideredbat members who had carried out many missions. It was somewhat inappropriate to argue in front of the neers.


    After all¡­


    Besides Su Chen, there were still quite a number of people in the training hall who had not left yet.


    Finally, before the three of them left, Gao Fei added one more sentence.


    ¡°Because your initial superpower level is rtively high, I might have them form a small team to fight you alone. You should prepare well. Oh right, you¡¯re not allowed to use your equipment during the actualbat training.¡±


    Hearing that, Su Chen¡¯s smile quickly disappeared.


    What was there to prepare?!


    He was not allowed to use his equipment, and he had to fight him one more time. Was he supposed to absorb a few more beast souls at thest minute?


    However, there was no time for him to resist. After saying those words, Gao Fei led the two away.


    Only Su Chen, who had a sad look on his face, was left.


    ¡°I¡¯m afraid that this peaceful day hase to an end,¡± Su Chenmented.


    As soon as Su Chen finished speaking, trouble came.


    ¡°Su Chen! When you were a staff member in Captain Gao Fei¡¯s team, how did you awaken your superpower?¡±


    Hearing this familiar voice, Su Chen turned around helplessly. As expected, the person who came was Nono.


    Behind Nono, there were more than ten curious rookies. They seemed to have a belly full of questions to ask Su Chen.


    Zhang Yi was the only one who made Su Chen feel slightlyforted. When he came in front of Su Chen, his gaze was firm as he said, ¡°I will definitely defeat you during the actualbat training!¡±


    Although his words sounded a little silly, at least he did not stand there and bother Su Chen.


    When Zhang Yi left, he even saw Su Chen¡¯s grateful gaze.


    It gave him goosebumps.


    Looking at Nono and the others around him, Su Chen thought miserably.


    It was probably impossible for him to go home early today.


    ¡­


    In the end, Su Chen spent two hours exining the general process of thest exploration mission to the curious people.


    Even Su Chen¡¯s work before joining the exploration team was interrogated.


    The curious neers seemed to be trying to deduce the reason why Su Chen¡¯s initial level was so high.


    In the evening, Su Chen finally returned to his room and fell into a deep sleep.

 Chapter 24

    Chapter 24: Ancient Heart with Special Ability


    The next day, early in the morning, Su Chen arrived at the training ground designated by Gao Fei.


    This was an arena that waspletely made of high-strength alloy.


    It was used for thepetition between Evolvers.


    Although it had experienced tens of thousands of battles, the arena was still as clean as new. It was said that it was made of some extremely expensive memory metal.


    The main reason was to reduce the cost of maintenance. Since they had to spend a lot of resources to maintain the arena, it would be better to build the arena better from the very beginning.


    ¡°Fighting in this ce might be more advantageous for Evolvers with metal-rted abilities,¡± Su Chen said.


    The truth was just as he had predicted. When Zhang Yi saw the arena, his eyes instantly lit up..


    His superpower was metal control!


    The arena was made of metal. It was a battle environment tailored for him.


    ¡°If I defeat Su Chen, I¡¯ll get an evolution potion. If I can increase my superpower level before the exploration, the exploration process will be much safer.¡±


    Zhang Yi murmured, looking at Su Chen with more fighting spirit.


    He did not feel that it was unfair to defeat Su Chen in this arena. After all, Su Chen¡¯s superpower level was a bit higher than his.


    Su Chen nced at Zhang Yi, who was looking at him with excitement, and shivered.


    ¡°Is there something wrong with this person?¡± Su Chen whispered.


    Zhang Yi¡¯s look was indeed a little scary.


    If Su Chen knew what Zhang Yi was thinking, he might kindly remind him that the difference in power level was not just a little bit.


    This morning, Su Chen woke up to find that the bull¡¯s soul had finallypletely fused with his body, and his power level had reached the middle level three.


    However, Su Chen did not underestimate the other rookies. For now, the bull¡¯s soul had given him the ability to strengthen his strength and defense in a short period of time.


    In terms of power strength, it was not very strong.


    Although this situation would improve after absorbing other beast souls, for now, Su Chen really did not have a 100% confidence in winning.


    Therefore, Su Chen paid a lot of attention to this practicalbat training.


    This could be considered his first face-to-face encounter with an enemy after obtaining his special ability. Although the ¡°enemy¡± was his ssmate, it could also add a lot of practicalbat experience to him.


    This was especially true for the team battle that followed suit. If Gao Fei really allowed others to form a small team to fight against him, then would Su Chen not experience the feeling of an Origin Beast by himself?


    Just as Su Chen¡¯s thoughts were running wild, Gao Fei also arrived at the venue.


    Everyone greeted Gao Fei.


    Gao Fei began to exin the rules of today¡¯s match.


    ¡°Today is the first actualbat training.


    ¡°We will use the form of individual battles.


    ¡°The first round will be decided by drawing lots.


    ¡°We will fight in sequence, and we will stop there.


    ¡°The meaning of fighting in sequence is that everyone has fought at least once.¡±


    As Gao Fei¡¯s voice fell, many of the rookies in the field began toin.


    ¡°If everyone has to fight once, doesn¡¯t that mean there will be at least 16 battles!¡±


    ¡°F*ck, this will tire everyone to death!¡±


    ¡­


    Su Chen rubbed his nose, feeling apologetic.


    After all, beating up 16 people in a day was still very enviable.


    When Gao Fei heard the discussions of the crowd, he replied, ¡°First of all, 16 consecutive battles will not consume more stamina than exploring the wastnd once, only less!¡±


    ¡°Second, it¡¯s not 16 battles, it¡¯s 17!¡±


    ¡°Come out.¡±


    As Gao Fei said this, he waved at the entrance of the arena.


    As soon as he finished speaking, a round figure walked in from the entrance of the arena.


    Su Chen looked towards the direction of the entrance and immediately widened his eyes. ¡°Isn¡¯t that Gu Xin?¡±


    Gu Xin had also awakened his superpower?


    When did this happen?!


    Seeing everyone¡¯s puzzled expressions, Gao Fei said, ¡°His name is Gu Xin. He was also an employee of my exploration team. Yesterday, he awakened his superpower. His superpower is at level two beginner.¡±


    ¡°Hiss!¡±


    As Gao Fei¡¯s voice fell, everyone sucked in a breath of cold air again.


    Suddenly, they seemed to understand something and started to discuss in low voices.


    ¡°F*ck, this person is the same as Su Chen! He¡¯s also an employee of Captain Gao Fei!¡±


    ¡°Could it be that the key to awakening his superpower is to join Captain Gao Fei¡¯s exploration team?¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s not right! Not only that, I¡¯m afraid that he has to enter as an employee!¡± A neer rubbed his eyes and said in a low voice,


    As he said this, his eyes shone with wisdom!


    ¡°Hiss! Details, brother, you¡¯re right!¡±


    Everyone was also surprised by this rookie¡¯s spection. It was actually so detailed!


    ¡°Cough, cough.¡±


    Seeing that his exploration team was about to be the cradle of awakening his special ability in the eyes of these rookies, Gao Fei hurriedly coughed twice to interrupt.


    If he continued, he did not know what strange things these rookies could think of!


    Why was it so difficult to lead this batch of rookies?!


    Could it be because it was his first teaching mission?


    Was it actually his own problem?


    Looking at everyone¡¯s strange brain circuits, Gao Fei even began to doubt himself.


    It was only the time of one mission.


    Two of his employees had obtained their special abilities. One of them was at level three, while the other was at level two.


    Gao Fei almost believed the results of their spections!


    Could it really be that there was something wrong with his own team?


    He had never noticed it before!


    Gu Xin walked into the arena with a confused expression. At first nce, he saw Su Chen among the crowd. His eyes immediately lit up as he walked toward Su Chen¡¯s position.


    At least he had an acquaintance!


    Seeing Gu Xin walking over, Su Chen hurriedly asked, ¡°When did you awaken your superpower?¡±


    The rookies standing around Su Chen also moved their ears closer. What the two of them were going to say next was very likely to be the secret of Gao Fei¡¯s squad!


    Su Chen was also very curious about the reason why Gu Xin had awakened his superpower. Strictly speaking, Gu Xin was the second person to awaken his superpower on his own after Li Mo!


    Hearing Su Chen¡¯s question, Gu Xin said, ¡°I don¡¯t know. It should have beenst night. I was eating apressed biscuit normally when it suddenly awakened.¡±


    Su Chen was speechless.


    Hearing this strange answer, he really had nothing to say. Su Chen thought Gu Xin had gone to find an Origin Beast to fight.


    ¡°Brother, what kind of biscuit do you eat?¡± The neer with sses came up.


    Gu Xin was stunned, and subconsciously replied, ¡°Uh¡­ the one in my hand.¡±


    The neer with sses kept recording their conversation in his notebook.


    Seeing this, Su Chen hurriedly stopped Gu Xin from continuing, afraid that he would lead others astray.


    If he guessed correctly, Gu Xin had probably awakened his superpower long ago, but the energy in his body was not enough to use it.


    During this period of time, he had been eating non-stop. That was the first time he had awakened his superpowerst night.


    Su Chen¡¯s guess was very close to the truth. It was almost the same as the report Gao Fei received from the lighthouse.


    The Lighthouse was unable to give a detailed answer about the reason why Su Chen and Li Mo had awakened. In the end, it concluded that this was the potential of humans facing a desperate situation.


    ¡°Since everyone is clear about the rules, thepetition will begin. Everyone will draw lots through their wristwatches.¡±


    Gao Fei¡¯s voice entered everyone¡¯s ears.


    Hearing this, everyone opened the drawing page andpleted the drawing of lots.


    ¡°The first round, Gu Xin vs Nono.¡±

 Chapter 25

    Chapter 25: cing Bets


    As everyone entered their information into the arena tform, on the giant screen above the arena, the candidates for the first round appeared.


    Gu Xin and Nono¡¯s information appeared in everyone¡¯s eyes.


    ¡°Level two peak¡­ My luck doesn¡¯t seem too good today,¡± Nono said as she looked at Gu Xin.


    As early as yesterday, Nono had already gathered a rough idea of the rookies¡¯ information, preparing for today¡¯s actualbat training.


    However, Gu Xin had just arrived at the training ground today, so she knew nothing about Gu Xin¡¯s special ability.


    Furthermore¡­.


    Gu Xin was actually at the level two peak. This was not good news for Nono.


    The only thing that made Nono somewhat confident was that her special ability was an elemental-type special ability. She could control fire, and could be considered one of the more powerful special abilities.


    Among different superpowers, apart from the differences in emphasis, there were also differences in strength.


    Among the most basic strengthening superpowers, very few strengthening superpowers were stronger than the users of the other two superpowers.


    Thinking of this, Nono moved closer to Gu Xin and Su Chen.


    ¡°Gu Xin, what is your superpower?¡±


    Gu Xin turned around and saw a cute girl staring at him with a smile.


    Gu Xin, who rarely interacted with girls of the same age, had never seen such a scene before. She was the one who hade to talk to him!


    Immediately, he shyly told him about her superpower, ¡°Uh¡­ my superpower will grow.¡±


    ¡°Huh?¡± Hearing Gu Xin¡¯s answer, Nono was dumbfounded.


    Grow?


    What superpower would grow?


    Why did this person talk so strangely?


    Su Chen felt the same way as Nono when he saw the confused look on Nono¡¯s face.


    A few minutes ago, when Gu Xin had just told Su Chen about his superpower, Su Chen had the same reaction.


    However, Gu Xin could not exin anything clearly.


    Basically, it should belonged to the same type of enhanced superpower as Su Chen.


    Gao Fei did not give Nono the chance to get to the bottom of the matter. After confirming the candidate for the match, he directly opened his mouth to speak.


    ¡°Contestants, enter the arena! The first match begins!¡±


    Su Chen noticed that Wan Ling was also present today. It should be because Wan Ling was a spirit-type special ability. With her strength, she could control the situation in the arena at the first possible moment.


    Once an ident urred, Wan Ling could stop it in time.


    After all, the majority of users of spirit attribute special abilities would use telekinesis to control objects. It was just that the focus of their development was different.


    After everyone had finished their preparations, thepetition finally began.


    Standing in the arena, Gu Xin was clearly a little nervous.


    He had just awakened his special ability yesterday. After reporting to The Lighthouse, he was directly dragged to the training center.


    Gao Fei roughly told Gu Xin about what had happened in the ss yesterday. After that, he directly went to the arena.


    It could be said that he did not even know what level ofbat power his special ability could reach.


    Therefore, standing on the stage, Gu Xin was naturally extremely nervous.


    Especially when he saw that the person standing opposite him was none other than Nono, who had talked to him previously, Gu Xin became even more nervous!


    Seeing how Gu Xin was cowering, Su Chen felt numb!


    Forget about the battle, Su Chen felt that when Gu Xin was facing Nono, it was even worse than facing an Origin Beast!


    ¡°Hey, Su Chen, do you want to ce a bet?¡±


    Just as Su Chen was worried about Gu Xin, sses quietly moved to his side.


    sses was the neer who wore sses earlier. In order to facilitate his memory, everyone just called him sses.


    ¡°ce a bet?¡± Su Chen did not understand what sses was saying.


    Seeing this, sses exined, ¡°It¡¯s a bet on the result of the match. The odds for this match are 1:1.


    ¡°Gu Xin¡¯s power is enhanced, but his power level is at the level two peak. Although Nono is at the beginning of level 2, she¡¯s an elemental power, so the odds are 1:1.


    ¡°What do you think? Want to ce a bet?¡±


    Hearing this, Su Chen¡¯s interest was piqued. ¡°I¡¯ll ce a bet!¡±


    sses was quite formal, and the analysis of the two¡¯s strength was almost the same as Su Chen¡¯s guess.


    Seeing that Su Chen was ready to ce his bet, sses immediately asked, ¡°Then who are you betting on?¡±


    ¡°Well¡­ Gu Xin is my good brother, and he also went on an exploration mission with me. In terms of actualbat experience, he should be a little stronger.¡±


    Su Chen pondered and said, ¡°So¡­ I bet on Nono! 10 contribution points!¡±


    ¡°Hmm¡­ Hmm?¡± sses almost did not react. ¡°Aren¡¯t you guys good brothers? You¡¯re betting on Nono just like that?


    ¡°It¡¯s precisely because we¡¯re good brothers that I believe in Gu Xin¡¯s strength! If I bet on Gu Xin, wouldn¡¯t I be earning your money for nothing?¡± Su Chen said righteously.


    Hearing this, sses frowned. ¡°That¡­ makes sense!¡±


    Su Chen then turned his gaze toward the arena.


    In reality, even if he wanted to bet on Gu Xin, Gu Xin had to fight for something!


    Seeing Gu Xin standing on the stage, he was already extremely nervous, not to mention a battle. Even if he dared to make a move against Nono, it would still be a problem!


    In such a situation, if he were to bet on Gu Xin, would that not be giving away money?!


    Right at this moment, the countdown in the arena rang out!


    3!


    2!


    1!


    Fighting!


    Following the official ringing of thepetition bell, the first round of actualbat training officially began!


    Nono looked at Gu Xin with a serious expression.


    An opponent at level two peak, and like Su Chen, he was also an enhancement-type!


    Meeting Gu Xin before challenging Su Chen was also a pretty good start!


    Although her power level was slightly lower than Gu Xin¡¯s, her chances of winning were not necessarily small!


    As long as she did not let Gu Xin get close to her with her fire power, it would be very difficult for her to lose!


    Just as Nono was thinking of a countermeasure¡­


    Gu Xin moved first!


    Under Nono¡¯s nervous gaze, Gu Xin¡¯s hand reached behind himself.


    This was a good opportunity to observe her opponent¡¯s power!


    As Gu Xin started to move, the attention of all the rookies present was attracted.


    This was the first match. For the others, it was also an advantage, allowing them to understand their opponents earlier!


    Under everyone¡¯s nervous gazes, Gu Xin took out apressed biscuit from his back and ate it. Then, he said apologetically to Nono, ¡°I¡­ I want to eat whenever I¡¯m nervous. I¡¯m sorry.¡±


    Gu Xin¡¯s action immediately broke through the defense of the rookie who had bet on him winning. His face was filled with despair!


    ¡°F*ck, how can he win? Isn¡¯t his superpower level two levels higher than Nono¡¯s?¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s over! I have no money for two days of meals!¡±


    ¡°He can¡¯t be deliberately going easy on her just because she¡¯s a girl, right?¡±


    ¡­


    Su Chen was used to it. He understood Gu Xin¡¯s habit. He was not going easy on her, but Gu Xin was really nervous.


    The newbie who bought Nono¡¯s victory had a shocked expression on his face before he started to be ecstatic!


    Was this fatty here to give money away?!


    ¡°Bang!¡±


    Sitting on the spectator stand, the veins on Gao Fei¡¯s forehead bulged as he crushed the cup in his hand.


    There were even people who ate during thepetition!


    This batch of newbies was really f*cking difficult to lead!

 Chapter 26

    Chapter 26: The Erged Gu Xin


    A sh of anger shed across Nono¡¯s eyes as she watched Gu Xin¡¯s ridiculous operation!


    Eating snacks during thepetition!


    Who was he looking down on?!


    Instantly, Nono activated her superpower and shouted, ¡°me!¡±


    Gu Xin was stuffing apressed biscuit into his mouth when he saw Nono¡¯s eyes change, filled with fighting spirit.


    If he knew what Nono was thinking, he would definitely cry out in grievance!


    Being nervous was only one of the reasons.


    More importantly, Gu Xin¡¯s superpower required arge amount of high-calorie food to be activated. It consumed a lot of his body¡¯s energy!


    Hence, he would eat at this time.


    At the same time, Su Chen¡¯s gaze became serious.


    ¡°It¡¯s starting,¡± he muttered..


    This was the first time Su Chen had seen a battle between Evolvers of the same level. It would be very helpful to increase his actualbat experience.


    He could feel an intense and violent energy fluctuationing from Nono¡¯s body.


    Countless mes gathered around Nono¡¯s body. A scorching aura wasing from below the stage!


    In the midst of the mes, Nono¡¯s long red hair danced in the air. She was like a fire elf, and her eyes were filled with a fighting spirit!


    ¡°Gu Xin, I¡¯m afraid it¡¯s going to be a little dangerous,¡± Su Chen said in a low voice.


    Nono¡¯s elemental ability would have a certain advantage when it was first awakened.


    The levels of everyone¡¯s abilities were generally lower, and most of the enhanced ability users had yet to fully disy their physical strength. Under such circumstances, they would be at a disadvantage when fighting against elemental ability users.


    Elemental ability users were also synonymous with powerful offensive power.


    Meanwhile, enhanced superpowered people were more inclined to defend and fight in closebat.


    Elemental superpowered people were mostly used as auxiliary existences. People like Wan Ling, who had powerfulbat power, were considered as outliers.


    The scorching hot air made Su Chen¡¯s mouth and tongue dry.


    With his current defensive power, he was afraid that he would not be able to defend against Nono¡¯s attacks.


    Su Chen was not like Mark. Although they were both enhanced superpowered people, Mark¡¯s defensive power was beyond his reach, even if they were at the same level.


    Just as Su Chen was observing Nono, she made the first move.


    A gigantic fire dragon separated from the mes around Nono¡¯s body and charged in Gu Xin¡¯s direction.


    Seeing this intimidating fire dragon fly out, all the rookies present were shocked!


    ¡°This temperature, even if I¡¯m so far away, I still feel like I can¡¯t take it.¡±


    ¡°It¡¯s over. Gu Xin won¡¯t be defeated in just one move, right?¡±


    ¡­


    In the crowd, Zhang Yi looked at the fire dragon in fear.


    Wiping the sweat from his forehead, while he was observing Nono, he once again refreshed his understanding of the neer¡¯s strength.


    Zhang Yi believed that he could block the fire dragon with his metal superpower, but the high temperature was also a big problem.


    ¡°It seems that I have another opponent besides Su Chen,¡± Zhang Yi said softly.


    Meanwhile¡­


    In the audience stand, Gao Fei frowned as he looked at the fire dragon that Nono had released.


    ¡°She¡¯s quite talented, but she¡¯s too shy.¡±


    As a high-level superpower man who was also an elementalist, Gao Fei immediately saw the problem with Nono¡¯s move.


    The energy contained in the fire dragon was indeed extremely surging, which was worthy of praise for a neer.


    Unfortunately, the fire dragon was too big that it scattered the energy. Hence, it could not deal the highest damage.


    Moreover, Nono might not be able to use this kind of high-energy attack continuously.


    If Nono couldpress this energy, the attack it could create would be even more powerful!


    ¡°This attack might not be able to break through the little fatty¡¯s defense,¡± Gao Fei muttered.


    The Lighthouse¡¯s information was very clear. Gu Xin¡¯s ability was more inclined toward defense!


    In an instant, the fire dragon had already closed in on Gu Xin!


    Just as everyone was breaking out in cold sweat for Gu Xin, his figure suddenly changed!


    Under everyone¡¯s shocked gazes, Gu Xin¡¯s body rapidly expanded like a balloon!


    Gu Xin¡¯s height instantly approached three meters!


    A substantial energy fluctuation also appeared on the surface of Gu Xin¡¯s body!


    ¡°He grew bigger after taking a beating. Is Gu Xin a puffer fish?¡± Su Chen could tell that after Gu Xin¡¯s body grew bigger, his defense was also rapidly increasing.


    ¡°Boom!¡±


    The fire dragon roared as it collided with Gu Xin¡¯s huge body!


    ¡°Hiss! Hot, hot, hot!¡±


    Gu Xin¡¯s scream rang out in the arena.


    The fire dragon released an extremely high temperature in the instant of the collision. Seeing this, Wan Ling had already nned to intervene.


    Just as she stood up, she was stopped by Gao Fei with a wave of his hand.


    ¡°The mes did not cause any damage to him.¡±


    Gao Fei did not intentionally lower his voice when he said this. It could be clearly heard in the arena.


    Hearing his words, everyone turned to look at Gu Xin in the arena.


    At this moment, the enormous fire dragon had alreadypletely dissipated.


    ¡°No, that¡¯s not right!¡± Su Chen¡¯s eyes turned cold.


    ¡°The fire dragon has been absorbed by Gu Xin!¡±


    After activating his eagle eyes, Su Chen could clearly see that the enormous fire dragon had been sucked into Gu Xin¡¯s mouth like noodles!


    This¡­ could this also be considered a strengthened esper ability?


    As Su Chen¡¯s voice fell, everyone finally noticed this point!


    The surface of Gu Xin¡¯s body seemed to have turned slightly red. Clearly, he was unable to digest this energy quickly.


    Nono had a shocked expression on her face.


    He was able to absorb her attacks?


    Then, how was he supposed to fight this match?


    After a short moment of absent-mindedness, Nono was the first to react.


    Gu Xin did not seem to have any offensive methods. The energy that he had absorbed waspletely unable to be digested!


    The truth was just as Nono had thought.


    Gu Xin¡¯s ability to devour the fire dragon was only an instinct after the awakening of his special ability.


    He still had notpletely understood this special ability of his!


    Gu Xin¡¯s special ability was an enhanced special ability which was a devourer.


    He was able to devour energy attacks to replenish its own losses.


    However, after absorbing the energy of the fire dragon, Gu Xin did not know how to use it, which resulted in the current situation.


    Sitting on the high tform, Gao Fei held his forehead helplessly. ¡°I can¡¯t even use my own special ability. What kind of monsters are in the people I¡¯m bringing in?¡±


    This special ability should be one of the extremely powerful strengthening-type special abilities. Being able to absorb energy proved that his attack power was not ordinary.


    In short, the amount of energy that could be absorbed and the amount of damage that could be caused when this energy was released was extremely high!


    Gu Xin actually did not know how to use such a powerful esper ability!


    Returning to the arena, Nono deduced that the energy that Gu Xin had absorbed was already saturated.


    Now was a good opportunity tounch another attack!


    After calcting the remaining energy in her body, Nono did not choose to release her fire dragon again.


    Gao Fei¡¯s guess was right. She would not be able to use that move again for a short period of time.


    ¡°Then, let¡¯s try closebat!¡±


    Nono let out a low growl and immediately dashed toward Gu Xin¡¯s position!


    ¡°She changed her move.¡±


    Su Chen noticed Nono¡¯s movements. This little girl was not an ordinary person. It was rare for elementalists to fight in closebat.


    That was because their physiques were far weaker than those of enhanced elementalists. Closebat was too dangerous for them.


    Although Gu Xin¡¯s superpowers were very powerful, he was still in a passive situation.


    The people present did not have too much hope for Gu Xin.


    Even if his superpowers were powerful, they would only be powerful when he grew up.


    As of now, Gu Xin did not even know how to use his superpowers. How could he win?

 Chapter 27

    Chapter 27: Bet on Zhang Yi!


    In the arena, Gu Xin saw Nono¡¯s figure rushing toward him under the zing sun, but he was somewhat helpless.


    He was doing his best to suppress the restless energy in his body!


    It was over, and it was toote to even surrender!


    A despairing thought had already risen in Gu Xin¡¯s mind.


    Under the circumstances of not allowing him to use his weapons, Nono¡¯s fists were covered in mes as she rapidly attacked Gu Xin.


    The energy from the fire dragon showed no signs of being digested at all.


    This time, he might not be able to block it!


    Just as Gu Xin resigned to his fate, Nono¡¯s attack arrived.


    Nono¡¯s thin and small figure was almost iparable to Gu Xin¡¯s. However, on the surface, she was the one who had the upper hand in the confrontation between the two!


    Nono gathered all her strength and threw a heavy punch at Gu Xin¡¯s swollen abdomen..


    However¡­


    The loud bang that everyone expected did note.


    Gu Xin¡¯s abdomen was like an stic ball, and sunk deeply under Nono¡¯s heavy punch.


    At the same time, Gu Xin felt that the energy in his body seemed to have undergone a change.


    The energy that was originally out of control actually showed signs of being released at this moment.


    Following the attack, the energy in Gu Xin¡¯s body continued to fuse into the spot that was hit.


    ¡°Dong!¡± There was a muffled, loud sound.


    Gu Xin¡¯s body instantly bounced back.


    Nono¡¯s expression was shocked as she was sent flying by this huge force. Her flying speed was even a few times faster than before!


    Before Nono could react, she had already flown out of the arena.


    Seeing this scene, Wan Ling quickly made a move and stabilized Nono¡¯s body, preventing her from getting hurt from the impact.


    Until Nono¡¯s bodynded on the ground, she had an incredulous expression on her face.


    It was obvious that she had not reacted to what had happened in that instant.


    She was clearly the one attacking, so how could she be defeated all of a sudden!


    However, when she looked at the arena, she realized that Gu Xin¡¯s gaze was simrly stunned.


    It was as if she did not understand the reason for her victory.


    ¡°Me¡­ Him?¡± Nono opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but did not know where to start.


    Su Chen also felt a little helpless.


    It was not that he felt bad about losing 10 contribution points.


    It was because in this battle, both sides did not understand each other¡¯s superpowers. In fact, Gu Xin did not even know much about his own superpowers, yet he was able to win!


    ¡°Gu Xin wins. Rest for three minutes and prepare for the next battle.¡±


    Gao Fei¡¯s voice entered everyone¡¯s ears.


    In order to answer everyone¡¯s doubts, and also to enhance their understanding of superpowers, Gao Feimented, ¡°First, it¡¯s Wan Ling. Before they know the specific effects of the opponent¡¯s superpowers, they rashly attack. The final result is that they are defeated under an advantageous situation.¡±


    ¡°Second¡­ Gu Xin.¡± Speaking of Gu Xin, Gao Fei also had a headache.


    He was strong, right? Gu Xin did not even know the effect of his own superpower, and was the only one among all the rookies!


    However, if he was weak¡­ Gu Xin still won!


    ¡°Gu Xin, your superpower is simply a conversion of energy. You can absorb the energy generated by the opponent¡¯s attack and use this energy to counterattack. It can be considered a superpower that can attack and defend at the same time.


    ¡°If you still can¡¯t figure out your special ability in the next match, you know the result.¡±


    Having said that, Gao Fei red at Gu Xin, who was still standing in the arena.


    Gu Xin almost fell to the ground. When Gao Fei stared at him, he felt that he was going to be finished!


    How could this person be more terrifying than an Origin Beast?!


    However, after the battle just now, Gu Xin had gained a lot of understanding about his special ability.


    At the very least, he knew what the function of his special ability was.


    Gu Xin was not so stupid that even after Gao Fei exined the principle behind his special ability, he still could not understand how the devourer used it.


    Gu Xin pondered over the reason for his special ability, as he prepared to leave the arena.


    Seeing his action, Gao Fei added another sentence.


    ¡°Gu Xin, you don¡¯t have toe down. You¡¯ll still be in the next battle.¡±


    Hearing this, Gu Xin was stunned.


    ¡°No way? There¡¯s even such a thing as a wheel fight?!


    ¡°I¡¯m so unlucky!¡±


    Gao Fei did not care about Gu Xin¡¯sints. The battle list had been randomly selected by the system, and it was not arranged by him.


    However, Gu Xin had only been on the stage for a few minutes, so he did not consume much energy.


    Even the energy for the counterattack came from the fire dragon that Nono had released. The only thing that could be said to have been consumed was the energy barrier that Gu Xin had released on the surface of his body to resist the high temperature of the fire dragon.


    Gu Xin vs Zhang Yi!


    As Gao Fei¡¯s voice fell, the names of the next two contestants appeared on the big screen above the arena!


    Seeing his name appear on the big screen, Zhang Yi did not feel any fear in his heart.


    Although Gu Xin had defeated Nono in the battle just now, he was not afraid.


    However, after this battle, Zhang Yi had already learned about Gu Xin¡¯s special ability.


    This could be considered an advantage in terms of intelligence.


    Apart from that, with the natural advantage of the arena, Zhang Yi did not feel that he had a chance of losing.


    With this thought in mind, Zhang Yi walked up to the stage.


    ¡°Zhang Yi.¡±


    Su Chen looked at the big screen in the center of the arena.


    He had quite a good impression of Zhang Yi. Although Su Chen could see that his brain did not seem to be working well, he did not feel any resentment toward this neer.


    Su Chen really did not feel any resentment toward him.


    Did he not just mock him that day?


    He could just fight back in the arena. They were all good ssmates, so what resentment could there be?


    However, Su Chen still had some understanding of Zhang Yi¡¯s special ability. If he remembered correctly, Nono had told him yesterday.


    Zhang Yi¡¯s special ability was to control metal.


    In this alloy-cast arena, Zhang Yi had a natural advantage. In addition, he and Gu Xin had the same level of superpower. This time, Gu Xin would not be so lucky.


    Even when sses opened the bet, Gu Xin¡¯s odds were 1:2.


    ¡°Bet on Zhang Yi! 20 contribution points!¡±


    Su Chen shouted at sses.


    In fact, the battle went on very quickly.


    It turned out that Su Chen was right this time.

 Chapter 28

    Chapter 28: Rapid Defeat


    As the second match began, Gu Xin finally had the confidence!


    He had basically figured out how to use his special ability and its characteristics.


    Moreover, ording to what Gao Fei meant, his special ability was quite strong!


    It was both offensive and defensive!


    Although he did not know what the special ability of that guy with a strange haircut was, he could not possibly be stronger than that little girl, right?


    After arriving at the arena, Gu Xin did not even have the chance to chat with Su Chen before starting the first round of thepetition.


    He did not know anything about the abilities of the other rookies.


    Otherwise, as the second highest leveled esper among the new students, Gu Xin would not bepletely unfamiliar with Zhang Yi.


    ¡°Come on! Trample me to your heart¡¯s content!¡±


    With full confidence, Gu Xin directly shouted at Zhang Yi!


    Following Gu Xin¡¯s shout, therge arena gradually quieted down.


    .


    Everyone looked at Gu Xin with a very strange gaze.


    Many people subconsciously shivered.


    This fatty¡¯s thoughts seemed to be a bit off.


    Looking at Zhang Yi¡¯s shocked gaze, Gu Xin seemed to feel that the atmosphere was a bit off.


    He turned around and saw Su Chen¡¯s disgusted expression below the stage.


    Nono, who was resting below the stage, had an even more ufortable expression. It was as if she hated how she could lose to someone like him.


    At this moment, Gu Xin realized that there was some ambiguity in what he said.


    ¡°Cough, cough!¡±


    Thinking of this, Gu Xin coughed twice, trying to cover up the awkwardness.


    At this moment, Su Chen¡¯s gaze was on Zhang Yi on the other end of the tform.


    Zhang Yi¡¯s hands were flickering with a faint fluorescent light. He had started to use his superpower!


    The truth was just as Su Chen had expected.


    Facing Gu Xin, who had a strong defense, Zhang Yi still decided to take the initiative to attack!


    At this moment, Zhang Yi was controlling his superpower to move stealthily from the inside of the alloy tform toward Gu Xin!


    ¡°Isn¡¯t your superpower rebounding damage?¡± Zhang Yi muttered.


    At this moment, Gu Xin was still immersed in embarrassment, and did not realize that Zhang Yi had already made a move.


    Facing Gu Xin, who had the rebound damage effect, Zhang Yi decided to make the first move precisely because of his superpower!


    In this kind of environment, metal maniption was simply advantageous!


    At this moment, the sharp-eyed newbie finally realized that something was wrong with the venue.


    The alloy ground around Gu Xin was surging like a tide!


    At this moment, Gu Xin finally realized that something was wrong!


    He subconsciously eximed, ¡°Holy sh*t, what¡¯s going on?!


    ¡°Is the quality of your alloy arena not up to the standard?!¡±


    However, when he saw Zhang Yi¡¯s determined expression, he realized that this must be his opponent¡¯s superpower!


    However, it was already toote for Gu Xin to react!


    The ground beside Gu Xin¡¯s feet began to move rapidly, and a few tentacle-like alloys emerged from the ground!


    Like a giant steel python, they coiled around Gu Xin¡¯s body!


    Even though Gu Xin had activated his special ability, and his body was constantly expanding, it was still unable to withstand the tremendous strength of the giant steel python that was constantly contracting!


    Moreover, while the giant steel python was constantly contracting, it did not leave any space for Gu Xin to rebound.


    ¡°F*ck¡­ No¡­ I can¡¯t, I¡¯m suffocating to death!¡±


    A continuous, powerful pressure continuously pressed down on Gu Xin¡¯s body.


    It even made him feel as if he was suffocating!


    Gu Xin had no choice but to remove his ability.


    His body returned to its normal size.


    ¡°Whoosh!¡±


    Gu Xin, who had instantly removed his ability, finally had a chance to catch his breath. He let out a long sigh of relief.


    However, the giant steel python immediately coiled up like a nightmare, firmly controlling Gu Xin on the spot.


    He could not move an inch!


    Therefore, the match ended in just two minutes, when Gu Xin lost his ability to move.


    Although Zhang Yi¡¯s method of dealing with Gu Xin¡¯s recoil ability was simple, it also proved that Zhang Yi¡¯s control over his own ability was far better than Gu Xin¡¯s!


    The audience did not react until Gu Xin was defeated.


    ¡°Damn! The match ended too quickly!¡±


    ¡°I was betting just now. Why did I lose my contribution points in the time it took to turn my head?!¡±


    ¡°Seeing how fierce Gu Xin¡¯s performance was in the previous round, why didn¡¯t he have the strength to fight back in this round? Could it be that it was a fake match?!¡±


    The discussions in the audience also reached Gu Xin¡¯s ears.


    ¡°A fake match? Come up and try then. When I was entangled by that metal, I couldn¡¯t use any of my strength!¡±


    The newbie was not convinced. ¡°So what if I go up?! At least I won¡¯t lose so fast!¡±


    ¡°You!¡± Gu Xin was about to go down to battle with the newbie when he suddenly felt a chill.


    He looked up and saw Gao Fei¡¯s unfriendly gaze.


    Gu Xin also knew that he had underestimated his opponent in this match, which led to his defeat at the speed of light. He immediately felt a little resentful.


    ¡°Alright,e down, Gu Xin.¡± Su Chen waved his hand, interrupting the quarrel between Gu Xin and the neer.


    The opponent had the geographical advantage in this match.


    The situation was no different from one side. Gu Xin, on the other hand, did lose quickly because he had underestimated his opponent.


    Su Chen did not continue to provoke Gu Xin. After all, everyone had awakened their special abilities not long ago, so it was understandable that they were not familiar with their special abilities.


    Otherwise, there was no need for Gao Fei to hold this actualbat drill.


    The process of this match was simple, and there was no need for Gao Fei to exin. Everyone present could understand.


    After that, another three matches passed.


    The rookies that were fighting each other were obviously much more normal.


    Almost all of them were enhanced Evolvers, and their fights were considered normal.


    What surprised Su Chen was sses.


    sses had defeated a level one peak newbie with his level one beginner superpower.


    Both sides were Evolvers of the enhanced type.


    When sses stepped onto the stage, his enhanced body turned out to be his right arm!


    After using his superpower, not only was his right arm powerful, but its defense was also extraordinary.


    Relying on the pull, sses won that match.


    The defeated rookie was also convinced.


    It could be considered as proving that a low-level superpower did not represent one¡¯s full strength.


    Then¡­


    Su Chen finally got a chance to y.


    The next match was Su Chen vs Nono!

 Chapter 29

    Chapter 29: Before the Match


    Su Chen was about to go on stage!


    Seeing the candidates appearing on the big screen, everyone present raised their heads and focused their attention on the arena!


    Su Chen was the only one among the rookies who had broken through to level three with his special ability.


    Naturally, he would be able to get their attention.


    Although the match had yet to begin, the rookies had already started discussing.


    ¡°Is it finally Su Chen¡¯s turn? I really want to see the strength of a level three Evolver.¡±


    ¡°That¡¯s right. Moreover, he¡¯s an Evolver with an enhancement element. It can be considered one of the mostmon special abilities. I also want to take a look at hisbat methods!¡±


    ¡°He¡¯s someone who worked in Captain Gao Fei¡¯s team. Although he has just awakened his special ability, his actualbat experience should be much higher than ours..¡±


    ¡°Fortunately, I¡¯m not the first person Su Chen will fight. I pity Nono. I hope Su Chen will show mercy to such a pretty girl.¡±


    ¡­


    Apart from Su Chen, Nono was naturally the second person who was at the center of the conversation.


    Her poprity among the rookies far surpassed that of Su Chen and Zhang Yi. After all, Nono had a pretty face and was very talkative. Naturally, she could win the favor of many people.


    Although Nono had pestered Su Chen with many questions about Gao Fei, causing Su Chen to suffer unspeakably, Su Chen had a good impression of this cute girl.


    Other than the crowd that was discussing fervently, sses, who had already left the stage, naturally started his old job.


    Previously, when he went up on his own, in order to avoid suspicion, he did not set up a bet.


    Now that Su Chen and Nono were about to start a war, he would definitely set up a bet again.


    This kind of behavior was not under Gao Fei¡¯s jurisdiction.


    Firstly, this kind of thing was verymon in The Lighthouse. It was considered one of the few entertainment activities.


    Secondly, it was because the people present were all rookies and did not have many contribution points in their hands.


    In terms of this match, the odds of Nono winning was surprisingly high, 1:4!


    This was the biggest difference in odds since sses started the bet.


    It could be clearly seen that although Nono was very popr, no one had much confidence in her winning the match.


    As a result, Nono was naturally under a lot of pressure.


    She had never thought that she would be the first person to face Su Chen.


    Nono was indeed obsessed with that evolution potion. Due to her powerful special ability, she felt that she had a chance of winning.


    However, the first time she faced Su Chen, it meant that Nono had lost the chance to observe Su Chen¡¯s battle patterns.


    Secondly, although she had not seen Su Chen inbat, Su Chen had seen Nono and Gu Xin¡¯s battle.


    From the looks of it, Nono was at a disadvantage.


    After thinking for a while, she took advantage of the three-minute break.


    Nono ran to Su Chen and asked, ¡°Su Chen, can you tell me more about your superpower?¡±


    When she asked this question, even Nono, who was good at socializing, lowered her head shyly.


    It was different from asking about Gu Xin¡¯s superpower.


    This was because after the battle between the two parties, Nono could win an evolution potion after winning. Hence, it was a bit rude to ask about Gu Xin¡¯s superpower before thepetition.


    ¡°My superpower?¡± Su Chen did not intend to hide it. In his opinion, he had the advantage of a higher level, so it did not matter even if he told Nono.


    Moreover, Su Chen hadpletely fused with the bull¡¯s soul. Although he did not have an advantage in the strength of his superpower, he was still confident.


    A one-sidedpetition was not interesting.


    With this thought in mind, Su Chen told Nono everything.


    ¡°I have an enhanced superpower. You know this.


    ¡°Secondly, my superpower is a strength-enhanced superpower. In terms of defense, I¡¯m far inferior to Gu Xin.


    ¡°However, once I get close to you, I¡¯m afraid you¡¯ll be in danger.¡±


    Hearing Su Chen¡¯s answer, Nono was also surprised.


    She had intended to ask Su Chen about the type of superpower, but she did not expect Su Chen to tell her so much information.


    Then, Nono smiled wryly.


    She knew that the reason why Su Chen had told her everything was probably due to his confidence in his own strength!


    ¡°Thank you!¡± Nono bowed to Su Chen happily and left to prepare for battle.


    The psionic ability that she had used up earlier had already recovered after resting for a few matches. With the information provided by Su Chen, Nono could be considered to have regained her confidence.


    Seeing this, the surrounding people did not feel anything special.


    In their eyes, when a cute girl like Nono asked them about their superpowers, they would definitely tell her everything!


    On the other hand, when Gao Fei saw this scene, the corner of his mouth curled up slightly.


    Others did not know Su Chen¡¯s strength, but Gao Fei could faintly sense it.


    Besides, Su Chen¡¯s power was not that strong, just in terms of the strength of his power.


    Su Chen was much weaker than Mark, who was also in the strengthening element.


    What Gao Fei really liked about Su Chen was his calm decision-making in the face of danger, as well as his amazing fighting talent.


    The strength of his power could be enhanced through the evolution of his power, but it was hard to change a person¡¯s temperament.


    This was also the reason why Gao Fei gave Su Chen the rmendation letter.


    Gao Fei was also very interested in this match.


    He was very curious about what kind of battle mode Su Chen would adopt when facing an elemental-type psionic ability user like Nono.


    Hearing that Su Chen¡¯s battle was about to begin, Mark, who was free, also came to the arena.


    Gu Xin had no idea when he had gotten familiar with Mark. He had already carried a pile of snacks and ran to Mark¡¯s side, ready to watch his good friend¡¯s match.


    Under everyone¡¯s expectations, the match was about to begin!

 Chapter 30

    Chapter 30: Killer Move


    This was the first time Su Chen had fought an Evolver.


    His opponent was an elemental-type evolver. Hence, Su Chen was not a 100% sure that he could win when he was about to enter the arena.


    Both of them entered the arena with a nervous mood.


    Nono was much more nervous than Su Chen.


    As an enhanced-type superpowered person, Nono¡¯s defeat against Gu Xin had caused her confidence to drop.


    Facing Su Chen, Nono felt that the only good news was that his defense was not as strong as Gu Xin¡¯s.


    As long as she could cause damage, she had a chance of winning!


    ¡°I¡¯ll learn from the lesson I learnedst time¡­.¡± Nono looked at Su Chen, who was standing on the other side of the arena, with a resolute gaze.


    When facing Gu Xin, she had made a rash move. This was because she did not understand Gu Xin¡¯s special ability well enough, and she had lost.


    She would not make the same mistake again.


    First, test!


    The moment the match started, Nono activated her special ability!


    mes filled the sky and enveloped Nono once again.


    A terrifyingly high temperature instantly filled the entire arena.


    Without saying a word, two slender fire dragons shot out from Nono¡¯s palms.


    Although their power was not as powerful as the fire dragons, the movement speed of these two fire dragons was iparably fast.


    Seeing Nono using a new battle style, the audience below the stage cried out in surprise.


    ¡°This speed is so fast!¡±


    ¡°Why isn¡¯t Su Chen moving? Could it be that he¡¯s preparing to take this attack head-on?¡±


    ¡°The movement speed of these two fire dragons is several times faster than the previous attack!¡±


    When Gao Fei saw this scene, a strange look also shed in his eyes.


    ¡°This little girl¡¯sprehension isn¡¯t bad,¡± Gao Fei praised softly.


    After the first round of defeat, Nono had clearly learned a lot.


    In fact, after a round of confrontation, Nono had be more familiar with the use of her own energy!


    These two fire dragons were probably just probing attacks. The true killing moves were probably already being prepared.


    Just when everyone was shocked.


    In the blink of an eye, the two fire dragons had already arrived in front of Su Chen!


    ¡°It¡¯s a little slow.¡±


    Su Chen muttered. Under the eagle¡¯s eye, Nono¡¯s movement became extremely slow!


    He could clearly see the movement of the fire dragons!


    Su Chen suddenly exerted strength. The energy in his body gathered on his fists, forming a golden light.


    The next moment, just as the fire dragons were about to collide with Su Chen, under everyone¡¯s shocked gaze, Su Chen instantly exerted his strength, and his fists collided with the mes!


    ¡°Dong!¡±


    With a loud sound, the two fire dragons turned into flying sparks and slowly disappeared in front of Su Chen.


    ¡°Hiss!¡±


    Looking at Su Chen who was standing on the stage and gently moving his wrists, the rookies below the stage sucked in a breath of cold air.


    Facing such high temperature mes, Su Chen actually did not dodge and chose to receive the attack head-on!


    ¡°Didn¡¯t he¡­ didn¡¯t he say that he¡¯s not a defensive-type Evolver?¡±


    sses, who was standing below the stage, adjusted his sses frame and said in disbelief.


    ¡°He¡¯s probably trying to show off his strength,¡± Zhang Yi replied to eyesses.


    Nono, whose red hair was dancing in the mes, also had a look of surprise on her face. She also did not expect that Su Chen would receive this attack head-on!


    At this moment, Su Chen rubbed his sore wrists with an indifferent expression.


    The discussions of the audience below the stage were quite loud, so of course, they reached his ears.


    ¡®Do you think I didn¡¯t want to dodge?¡¯


    Hearing sses¡¯ voice, Su Chen thought angrily in his heart.


    The reason why that scene happened just now was purely due to his eagle¡¯s eye special ability!


    Due to his eagle¡¯s eye meticulous observation, Su Chen instinctively started to study Nono¡¯s special ability¡¯s trajectory.


    However, it was precisely because of the eagle¡¯s eye effect that the two fire dragons¡¯ attacks just now gave Su Chen an illusion.


    It was the illusion that Nono¡¯s attack speed was not fast!


    By the time he wanted to move and dodge, it was already toote!


    His body¡¯s movements werepletely unable to keep up with his thoughts.


    Even if he forcefully dodged, he might still be injured.


    Since that was the case, Su Chen might as well receive that attack head-on.


    That was how the scene of him shattering the fire dragon with his bare hands appeared.


    In the eyes of outsiders, it might be because Su Chen was powerful, but only he himself knew that that attack just now should have been Nono¡¯s feint.


    The purpose should have been to test the effects of Su Chen¡¯s special ability.


    However, this time, Su Chen did not n to give Nono any more time to test it.


    In a continuous battle, the most important thing was to preserve one¡¯s strength. If others could lose, the worst that could happen was to lose some points.


    If Su Chen was defeated due to exhaustion, he would lose an evolution potion!


    How many mission contribution points would he have to advance in order to exchange for it?!


    With this thought in mind, Su Chen suddenly increased his speed and charged toward Nono¡¯s direction.


    He wanted it over fast!


    Nono saw Su Chen rushing over.


    ¡®Release a few more fire dragons.


    ¡®Even if Su Chen could break it, it¡¯ll buy me some time.¡¯


    Her killer move was still gaining power!


    See this scene, the new person below the stage opened the mouth of doubt.


    ¡°Why didn¡¯t Nono move? Are these dragons a threat to Su Chen?¡±


    ¡°If a strengthening ability user gets close to Nono, isn¡¯t Nono in danger?¡±


    ¡°If Su Chen¡¯s punchnded on Nono just now, I wouldn¡¯t even dare to imagine it!¡±


    ¡°Su Chen should know how to take care of women, right? I think so?¡±


    ¡­


    This time, Su Chen could clearly see the movement of the fire dragons.


    Moreover, he reacted as fast as he could!


    Under Su Chen¡¯s clever footwork, the fire dragons seemed to be human bodies that brushed past him every time.


    This scene really shocked everyone.


    It looked like Nono had deliberately missed. Su Chen clearly did not make any movement to dodge, but the fire dragons could not even touch the corner of Su Chen¡¯s clothes.


    In the blink of an eye, Su Chen was already in front of Nono!


    Under his somewhat surprised gaze, the corner of Nono¡¯s mouth curled up into a beautiful smile.


    She was¡­ inviting him into the trap!

 Chapter 31

    Chapter 31: The Power of The Bull


    ¡®You said that your closebat strength is strong, so I will remember it!¡¯


    Seeing Su Chen rushing in front of her, Nono thought to herself.


    Su Chen¡¯s somewhat surprised expression made her feel even better.


    Without waiting for Su Chen to retreat, Nono let out a low shout, ¡°me burst!¡±


    As Nono¡¯s light voice fell, a powerful and violent energy fluctuation instantly spread out with her at the center!


    The terrifying high temperature that assaulted him made Su Chen¡¯s hair curl slightly.


    A terrifying might was about to arrive!


    At the same time, Gao Fei¡¯s eyes lit up.


    ¡°Not bad!


    ¡°Gathering all the energy in her body into one attack, this little girl is quite smart.¡±


    The truth was just as Gao Fei said..


    Nono gathered all the energy in her body into this explosion!


    This was because she was very clear that when facing Su Chen, this was her only chance to win!


    Su Chen was not an Evolver who favored defense.


    Facing such an attack, it was impossible for her to have a chance to dodge it!


    Just as Nono was thinking about this, violent fire energy had already spread throughout the entire arena!


    The intensity of this attack far exceeded the height that a low-level two Evolver could reach!


    Everyone below the stage was shocked.


    Nono was a true genius!


    This level of attack did not have a high degree of control over her ability. He would probably self-destruct and die before he could even hurt his opponent.


    Nono¡¯s attack method was to continuouslypress the energy in her body and release it at thest moment.


    It was such a terrifying power.


    Amon thought appeared in the eyes of everyone present!


    Nono was probably going to surpass her opponent!


    When Gu Xin saw this scene, a hint of joy appeared on his face as he had ced his bet on Nono!


    Although he had ced his bet only because Nono was good-looking, but looking at the current situation, Nono had a chance of winning!


    As for Su Chen?


    Should a good brother not help him earn some money?


    At most, he would treat Su Chen to a meal!


    Gu Xin did not know about Su Chen¡¯s bet. If he knew, Gu Xin would not feel any guilt!


    Mark said to Gu Xin snappily, ¡°You guys are really like brothers.¡±


    ¡°What do you know? If I bet on Su Chen, isn¡¯t that obvious bullying?¡± Gu Xin looked at thepetition ground with a face full of joy and replied perfunctorily.


    Just as everyone was feeling different emotions and nervously looking at thepetition ground, violent energy instantly spread across thepetition ground!


    The me burst was already activated!


    Sparks flew in the sky in the center of the arena, and the alloy ground near Nono turned red under the terrifyingly high temperature!


    White smoke rose up continuously, covering everyone¡¯s vision!


    ¡°Captain, do you think Su Chen can block it?¡±


    Wan Ling asked Gao Fei carefully.


    An attack of this level, unless it was a defensive-type Evolver like Mark, it would be difficult for other Evolvers of the same level to block it.


    ¡°How would I know? I¡¯m not Su Chen,¡± Gao Fei replied.


    He was telling the truth. The power of Nono¡¯s attack had far surpassed that of a level two Evolver.


    If it was Gao Fei at the same level, it would be difficult for him to block it without an injury.


    The arena had a protective mechanism. If the information on the yer¡¯s wristwatch was not right, the match would be stopped immediately. In addition, with Wan Ling present, there would not be too many idents.


    Therefore, seeing that the arena was filled with berserk fire elements, Gao Fei did not have any ns to interfere.


    From the information on the wristwatch, it seemed that regardless of whether Su Chen could block this attack or not, at the very least, his life would not be in danger.


    ¡°Wait!


    ¡°What¡¯s that?!¡±


    Among the rookies, someone cried out in surprise!


    Everyone looked in the direction that the rookie pointed.


    They only saw that within the arena that was filled with mes, a streak of golden light was faintly discernible!


    As the energy undtions continuously weakened, they finally saw what was happening!


    They only saw that Su Chen was still standing on the ground in front of Nono, facing the violent impact of the mes.


    He stood there unmoving!


    However, it was different from before!


    At this moment, a pair of huge golden horns appeared above Su Chen¡¯s head. They werepletely formed from energy!


    When the mes approached Su Chen, they were continuously broken by the pair of giant golden horns. They were divided into waves of mes that scattered in all directions!


    When Wan Ling saw this scene, her expression changed.


    ¡°Captain, what is this superpower?¡±


    This was clearly the superpower from the wild bull that Gao Fei had killed that day which had been used!


    Why would it appear on Su Chen¡¯s body at this moment?!


    Hearing Wan Ling¡¯s question, Gao Fei only faintly replied, ¡°Su Chen doesn¡¯t want to talk about it. We don¡¯t need to ask.¡±


    ¡°Hmph.¡± Since Gao Fei had already said so, Wan Ling naturally nodded in agreement.


    That day, when they fought against brute bull, only the three of them were present. Gao Fei should have already noticed something.


    Returning to the arena, although Su Chen¡¯s expression was still rxed, his smile carried a trace of bitterness.


    This Nono was too powerful. Originally, Su Chen had nned to conceal his own strength.


    He had just finished beating the bull, yet he had already used this ability. If Gao Fei suspected him, it would be quite troublesome.


    Thinking of this, Su Chen nced at Gao Fei on the stage.


    He found that Gao Fei was chatting with Wan Ling, and his attention did not seem to be on him.


    Su Chen then slightly rxed.


    It was good that he did not notice!


    As the power of the me burst gradually weakened, it dissipated.


    Nono looked at Su Chen, who was unharmed, with a shocked expression. She muttered, ¡°You¡­ big liar!¡±


    ¡°What happened to the special ability that isn¡¯t defensive?


    ¡°You blocked it just like that?¡±


    After Nono said those words, she did not wait for Su Chen to exin.


    Due to the excessive consumption of her special ability, she fainted.


    Su Chen looked at Nono, who was about to fall to the ground, and hurriedly held her up. Then, he lifted her up horizontally and handed her over to Wan Ling, who had already left the stage.


    However, Nono did not receive much damage due to the excessive consumption of her special ability.


    It was only at this moment that the people below the stage seemed to have just reacted.


    ¡°What happened just now?¡±


    ¡°Su Chen blocked it just like that?¡±


    ¡°Such a terrifying attack, but it didn¡¯t cause any damage at all? This is too terrifying!¡±


    ¡°If it were a senior Evolver, I can ept it. However, Su Chen is still a rookie, right?¡±


    ¡°Did he hug Nono just now?¡±


    ¡°Idiot, is that the main point? Wait¡­ I think so too!¡±


    ¡°Did Nono just say that he¡¯s a liar? Su Chen said that he¡¯s not a defensive Evolver, so would he exin it now?¡±


    ¡­


    The discussions of the crowd reached Su Chen¡¯s ears, and he felt rather helpless.


    He really was not a defensive Evolver.


    Just now, the rookies¡¯ line of sight was blocked by the mes, so they could not see clearly.


    Actually, when Su Chen blocked Nono¡¯s attack, it was more of a collision between their attacks!


    That was right as what that pair of bull horns did was increase Su Chen¡¯s attack ability.


    Although it looked like the bull horns had protected Su Chen and he did not suffer any damage, the truth was that it was a collision between two waves of energy.


    The truth was that it was a collision between two waves of energy!


    ¡°You don¡¯t need to rest since you did not expend much energy. Onto the next match, Zhang Yi, you¡¯re next!¡±


    At this time the voices of the crowd were interrupted by Gao Fei.


    Then, two names appeared on the big screen.


    ¡°Good fellow! Now he did not follow the list at all !¡±Su Chen immediately saw that Gao Fei had tampered with the data.


    Otherwise, how could the next round of candidates be so quickly decided?

 Chapter 32

    Chapter 32: Metal and Strength


    Zhang Yi, who had been called, instantly reacted and shouted, ¡°Yes!¡±


    Following which, he directly walked toward the stage. When Nono had fought against Su Chen, he had been itching to fight.


    He could not wait to have a match with Su Chen, and now, with Gao Fei helping him, he could.


    What was there to hesitate about?


    Although Su Chen had disyed an extremely strong performance in the previous match, Zhang Yi was also filled with confidence in himself.


    The reason was the same as before. The metal arena was his home ground!


    ¡°I didn¡¯t expect you to lie just to win.¡±


    When Zhang Yi went on stage, he even said something to Su Chen.


    Su Chen ignored him..


    He really did not know how to exin it.


    However, it was just right. In the battle with Zhang Yi, he would use actions to exin everything!


    Although Su Chen was not like what Gao Fei had said, he actually did expend quite a lot of energy.


    On the contrary, when he blocked Nono¡¯s all-out attack, he had consumed more than half of the energy in his body.


    This was the result of facing off against an elemental Evolver at close range.


    He had used up a huge amount of energy in exchange for aplete victory.


    This went against Su Chen¡¯s original intention of conserving energy.


    Therefore, Su Chen nned to use less of his special ability to win this battle.


    After being strengthened by bull, it was not impossible for him to win by relying on pure strength.


    All of this was based on Zhang Yi¡¯s special ability, which was to control metal.


    After Zhang Yi¡¯s previous battle, although the battle was short, Su Chen had already seen that with Zhang Yi¡¯s current strength, he could at most control the metal to change its shape and use it as a means of attack.


    It was not impossible for him to win just by relying on his strength.


    This did not mean that Zhang Yi was weaker than Nono. It only meant that the focus of the two superpowers were different.


    With Nono¡¯s powerful explosive power, Su Chen was simply courting death if he wanted to win just by relying on his strength.


    Just as Su Chen was thinking about countermeasures, the match had already begun!


    Zhang Yi vs Su Chen!


    ¡°Are you nning to do the same thing again?¡±


    Right after the match started, Su Chen noticed Zhang Yi¡¯s actions.


    The moment the match started, Zhang Yi had already sent his special ability toward Su Chen¡¯s position, just like when he faced Gu Xin.


    ¡®Do you really think I¡¯m an idiot?¡¯


    The scene of Gu Xin¡¯s defeat was still vivid in Su Chen¡¯s mind. At that time, Su Chen had never thought that Gu Xin would actually be that stupid.


    Without any preparation, Zhang Yi had taken the absolute initiative.


    However¡­


    Although Su Chen had already seen through Zhang Yi¡¯s thoughts, he did not have any intention of dodging.


    Under the watchful eyes of the audience, he actually stood in the same spot as Gu Xin, waiting for Zhang Yi¡¯s special ability to arrive.


    This scene stunned the rookies below the stage.


    ¡°Su Chen didn¡¯t move? Could it be that when Zhang Yi was fighting Gu Xin, he didn¡¯t watch the match?¡±


    ¡°What the f*ck? Could it be that he¡¯s ying a fake match and wants Zhang Yi to obtain the evolution potion?¡±


    ¡°Don¡¯t! I¡¯ve bet all my money on Su Chen for this match!¡±


    ¡°Brother, you¡¯re too hasty. Su Chen has just experienced a battle. How could he win so easily?¡±


    ¡°F*ck, now that you say it like that, it seems to be true!¡±


    ¡­


    In the eyes of the rookies, Su Chen definitely had a higher chance of winning this match. However, due to the fact that Su Chen had been fighting consecutively, the odds between the two of them were now 1:1.


    Therefore, sses decided to increase the odds between the two of them to 1:1.


    Naturally, this was also a result of careful consideration.


    The others did not know that Su Chen, who had already 100% fused with the bull¡¯s soul had already reached the middle stage of level three.


    In their eyes, Su Chen and Zhang Yi¡¯s strengths were not much different.


    Secondly, Zhang Yi¡¯s superpower was also an elemental power. In terms of the strength of his superpower, he was slightly stronger than the current Su Chen.


    The two horns on Su Chen¡¯s head had left a deep impression on the audience.


    However, due to the excessive consumption of energy, Su Chen had quickly shut down his superpower after passing the me burst. He might not be able to use his superpower again in this match.


    Overall, the odds of the two winning were 50-50 in everyone¡¯s eyes.


    Even so, most of the new yers still ced their bets on Su Chen¡¯s victory.


    Now that they saw that Su Chen was indifferent to Zhang Yi¡¯s attack, they were naturally anxious!


    Even Gu Xin, who had bet on Su Chen¡¯s victory, was the same.


    ¡°F*ck! Su Chen won¡¯t be defeated as quickly as me, right?¡± Gu Xin shouted at Mark.


    ¡°Can you not shout so loudly? Is being defeated so quickly something to be proud of?¡± Mark was a little speechless.


    He was still immersed in Su Chen¡¯s performance in thest round.


    That pair of shining golden horns left a deep impression on Mark.


    Therefore, Mark said with a rare serious expression, ¡°Su Chen shouldn¡¯t be defeated so easily. The power he disyed in thest round is probably not much weaker than my power.¡±


    ¡°Holy sh*t! Is Su Chen¡¯s power that strong? Are you trying tofort me?¡±


    Gu Xin said in surprise.


    In his opinion, Mark¡¯s iron-like power was his favorite power!


    ¡°Of course! Who cares about the contribution points you bet? Why should Ifort you?¡± Mark replied in a bad mood.


    As his words fell, the eyes of the two turned to the arena once again.


    At this moment, Zhang Yi¡¯s special ability had already approached Su Chen¡¯s surroundings.


    However, Su Chen was still standing calmly on the spot, as if he did not notice the impending danger at all!


    ¡°Is it here?¡± Su Chen looked at the slightly raised arc of the alloy ground.


    Although the change was slight, it still did not escape his eyes.


    As soon as Su Chen finished speaking, several giant metal pythons instantly rose from the ground and coiled toward his body!


    ¡°F*ck! It¡¯s dangerous!¡± Seeing this scene, even with Mark¡¯s affirmation, Gu Xin still broke out in a cold sweat for Su Chen.


    In the previous match, although Nono¡¯s attacks were powerful, Gu Xin was not afraid of mes.


    On the contrary, the metal pythons that quickly defeated him left a big psychological shadow on Gu Xin.


    On the stage, looking at the metal pythons that had gradually attached themselves to his body, Su Chen still did not move.


    He was waiting and waiting for an opportunity!


    ¡°I¡¯m afraid this match will end quickly again!¡±


    Looking at Su Chen who had been sessfully restrained by him, Zhang Yi felt that victory was in his grasp!


    Even Gao Fei, who was on the stage, had a strange look in his eyes.


    He also did not see what Su Chen was up to!

 Chapter 33

    Chapter 33: Unrivalled Power!


    A victorious smile appeared on Zhang Yi¡¯s face as he walked step by step toward the tightly bound Su Chen.


    Every time he took a step forward, the binding power from the giant steel python would be even stronger!


    ¡®As expected!¡¯ Su Chen thought to himself as he saw Zhang Yi approaching him.


    Su Chen had already noticed this when Zhang Yi was fighting Gu Xin!


    If Zhang Yi wanted to increase his control over the giant steel python, he had to get close to the target!


    Once Zhang Yi got close to a certain degree, that would be Su Chen¡¯s chance!


    A chance to win the match with the least amount of energy consumption!


    Although Su Chen was looking for an opportunity to win with one strike, the rookies below the stage did not know what he was thinking.


    After seeing that Su Chen was tightly bound by the giant steel python, none of them had any intention of making a move.


    Immediately, they were shocked and confused.


    ¡°F*ck, Su Chen isn¡¯t really ying a fake match, is he?¡±


    .


    ¡°First, he deceived Nono to win the match, then he yed a fake match! Is this the person with the highest level of superpower among the rookies?¡±


    ¡°Isn¡¯t this method a little too obvious?¡±


    ¡°Doesn¡¯t Teacher Gao know how to handle it? If I remember correctly, Teacher Gao knows Su Chen, right?¡±


    ¡°sses! Aren¡¯t you and Su Chen working together to scam everyone¡¯s contribution points?¡±


    Seeing that Gao Fei had no reaction to this matter, everyone pointed their spears at sses who had opened the bet.


    Upon hearing everyone¡¯s criticism, cold sweat instantly dripped down sses¡¯ forehead.


    He hurriedly said, ¡°How is that possible! Isn¡¯t credibility the most important thing when I set up a bet?¡±


    However, in the current situation, the majority of the people were indeed betting on Su Chen¡¯s victory.


    Moreover, Su Chen¡¯s intention to fake the match was too obvious.


    Even sses himself felt that his earlier rebuttal was a little weak.


    Although they were all rookies and did not have many contribution points in their hands, when added together, it was still not a small sum.


    This was especially true for those who had notpleted any exploration missions.


    sses could only beg Su Chen to act quickly. Everything that happened just now was a misunderstanding!


    ¡°My brother Su! Hurry up and act! If you don¡¯t act now, my brothers will act!¡± He could not help but shout toward the arena.


    When Su Chen heard sses¡¯ voice, he was a little speechless.


    Was he just looking for an opportunity?


    In their eyes, why did it seem like Su Chen was intentionally being passive in thepetition?


    Even Zhang Yi, who was slowly approaching Su Chen, started to be vignt.


    With Su Chen¡¯s strength, it was absolutely impossible for him to be defeated without even making a single move!


    Could it be that he had already exhausted his strength in thepetition just now?


    With this thought in mind, Zhang Yi could not help but open his mouth, ¡°Su Chen! What tricks are you ying?¡±


    As his voice fell, he did not receive any response from Su Chen.


    At this moment, Su Chen¡¯s entire body was almostpletely enveloped by the giant steel python.


    Moreover, as Zhang Yi approached, the pressure on the giant python continued to increase!


    Who cares what tricks you have up your sleeve?!


    At this moment, Zhang Yi was already at the end of his rope and had no choice but to shoot.


    Even if he sensed that something was wrong, he could only follow the previous n and continuously increase the control of the giant python!


    ¡®When I release the pressure to the maximum, even if you have great abilities, you can only lose!¡¯ Zhang Yi saw that there was no movement from Su Chen and thought angrily.


    At this moment, Zhang Yi was already not many steps away from Su Chen!


    The pressure of the steel python was about to reach its maximum!


    Seeing this scene, Zhang Yi waspletely relieved.


    His guess should be right!


    Su Chen was already exhausted!


    Although picking a victory for nothing was not the battle that Zhang Yi had hoped for, but the a good thing like the evolution potion should not be wasted!


    With this thought in mind, Zhang Yi stepped in front of Su Chen!


    At the same time, he also stepped into Su Chen¡¯s attacking area!


    ¡°Have you yed enough? Is it time for me to counterattack?¡±


    Su Chen¡¯s somewhat muffled voice came from the inside of the giant steel python!


    Hearing this voice, Zhang Yi¡¯s advancing footsteps stopped, and he continued to control the giant steel python to continuouslypress him!


    ¡°Only now you are ying tricks? Who are you trying to scare?!¡± Zhang Yi obviously did not believe that Su Chen could turn the tables.


    Su Chen did not speak anymore.


    Zhang Yi only saw a burst of yellow light shing out from the gap that the giant python had revealed.


    At the same time, there was a creaking sound that made one¡¯s teeth ache!


    ¡°Creak, creak¡­¡±


    Along with this ear-piercing sound, Zhang Yi felt a huge forceing from the body of the giant steel python!


    In just a few seconds, a pair of palms reached out from the encirclement of the giant steel python!


    Su Chen¡¯s palms left two heavy palm prints on the body of the giant steel python!


    At the same time, that irresistible force was continuously increasing!


    Was this really still a human?


    This terrifying force actually caused Zhang Yi to have an absurd thought!


    What he was facing seemed to be a terrifying ferocious beast from the wastnd!


    No matter how hard Zhang Yi tried, he was still unable to control the giant steel python to fight against that force!


    Was he waiting for me to step into his attack range?


    No! Not only that, but he seemed to be using my special ability to test the limits of his strength!


    Only at this moment did Zhang Yie to a realization!


    ¡°You¡­ you¡¯re not lying, you¡¯re really a strength-based Evolver!¡± Zhang Yi said with a trembling voice.


    That overwhelming power caused him to feel a sense of defeat that he was unable to fight against.


    Moreover, even if he retreated now, it was toote.


    Once his control over the giant steel python weakened, Su Chen would probably be able to escape from this predicament in an instant!


    However¡­


    No matter how hard Zhang Yi tried to persevere, he could not stop Su Chen from breaking out of the giant steel python¡¯s encirclement bit by bit.


    Dong!


    A thick-soled military boot stepped out of the giant steel python¡¯s cocoon.


    Then, Su Chen stood in front of Zhang Yi, who had a frightened look in his eyes.


    Su Chen did not make any further moves. At this distance, he could easily kill Zhang Yi.


    ¡°I¡­ I lost,¡± Zhang Yi said helplessly. His voice was full of frustration.

 Chapter 34

    Chapter 34: Zhang Yi Lost


    He lost!


    Zhang Yi lost!


    As Zhang Yi¡¯s voice fell, everyone in the audience finally reacted.


    The process of this battle was too mysterious!


    Gu Xin walked into the crowd of rookies.


    ¡°Hahaha!¡± The fat on his face kept shaking as heughed.


    Gu Xin took the contribution points from sses as he spoke, ¡°Who said that Su Chen was lying? Is he a defensive-type Evolver?


    ¡°Weren¡¯t you guys shouting happily just now? Why aren¡¯t you talking now?¡±


    These people did not have such expressions when they were pitying Su Chen just now.


    Gu Xin berated everyone,pletely forgetting that he also felt that Su Chen was about to lose.


    Only after Gu Xin finished speaking did someone speak..


    ¡°This¡­ he really isn¡¯t a defensive-type Evolver.¡±


    ¡°Let alone an Evolver! Can a strength-type Evolver possess such terrifying strength at the start of their awakening?¡±


    ¡°Su Chen is clearly a humanoid beast!¡±


    ¡°Even Gu Xin couldn¡¯t do anything to this steel python just now! Is the gap between Su Chen and us really that big?¡±


    ¡­


    In the arena, Su Chen was still standing in front of Zhang Yi.


    Looking at the defeated Zhang Yi, Su Chen said indifferently, ¡°You showed mercy in this match.¡±


    Hearing this, a sh of anger shed across Zhang Yi¡¯s eyes!


    He said angrily, ¡°Although I lost, I don¡¯t need your sympathy.¡±


    Hearing Zhang Yi¡¯s angry voice, Su Chen was stunned.


    What was this person thinking?


    Who sympathized with him?


    Then, Su Chen said again, ¡°Thispetition is just practical training, but you didn¡¯t treat it as a real battle at all.¡±


    ¡°In this aspect, Nono is much stronger than you.


    ¡°When you trapped me with the steel python just now, you made the steel python suddenly produce a sword. What do you think the result will be?¡±


    Hearing Su Chen¡¯s words, Zhang Yi waspletely stunned.


    Originally, when he said that he was inferior to Nono, Zhang Yi wanted to retort.


    However, when he heard Su Chen¡¯s words, Zhang Yi reacted.


    Although he was not like what Su Chen said, he did not treat this match as a battle at all.


    However, he did not even think about the method that Su Chen had mentioned!


    ¡°Our final enemy should be the Origin Beast. When the timees, we won¡¯t show any mercy.¡±


    Just as Zhang Yi was stunned, Su Chen once again threw out a sentence, turned around and walked off the stage.


    ¡°Thank¡­ thank you.¡±


    Just as Su Chen turned around and left, a voice as soft as a mosquito¡¯s voice of thanks came from behind him.


    Other than him, no one else heard it.


    The frustration in Zhang Yi¡¯s heart slightly receded.


    He did not lose this match unjustly.


    Su Chen was right. He did not treat this match as actualbat training at all.


    Compared to Nono¡¯s method of mutual destruction, Zhang Yi¡¯s attitude toward the match was a little too childish.


    After Su Chen exined, he finally came to his senses.


    In the wastnd, if the battle was still the same as before, death was only a matter of time.


    This was as expected of someone who hadpleted an exploration mission. This was the difference between him and Su Chen.


    Zhang Yi¡¯s impression of Su Chen had changed.


    At this point, this battle had finallye to an end.


    ¡°Hu.¡±


    Su Chen, who had returned to the arena, took a deep breath.


    Following that, he saw Gu Xin, who was looking at the bnce on his watch with a wretched smile on his face.


    Instantly, Su Chen thought of something and walked to Gu Xin¡¯s side.


    ¡°Alright, you brat, you¡¯re using your good brother to earn money, right?¡±


    Su Chen¡¯s voice suddenly rang in Gu Xin¡¯s ear, scaring Gu Xin into quivering.


    He immediately retorted and said, ¡°What do you mean by earning money? I¡¯m not!¡±


    However, Su Chen was only teasing Gu Xin and did not dwell on this issue.


    ¡°I¡¯m afraid I¡¯ll be dead tired today!¡± Su Chen grumbled.


    At this point, thepetition had only just begun.


    After hundreds of matches, it would probably be night time.


    ¡­


    The result was just as Su Chen had expected.


    It was nine o¡¯clock in the evening before everyone dragged their exhausted bodies and left.


    The result was not bad.


    As expected, Su Chen was ranked first on the leaderboard with aplete victory.


    One of the rounds was more dangerous.


    Su Chen seriously suspected that it was Gao Fei who had interfered. After five consecutive rounds, he was still able to fight the sixth yer in a row.


    The exhausted Su Chen was not confident of winning.


    At this time, the other side surrendered first, giving Su Chen some time to catch his breath.


    The second was Zhang Yi.


    After Zhang Yi fought against Su Chen, he lost to Nono in the evening.


    His special ability could do nothing to Nono¡¯s mes. After a long battle, the two of them finally ended with Zhang Yi being unable to withstand the terrifying heat.


    The third one was unexpectedly the in-looking sses.


    Relying on his agile figure, he relied on pulling to obtain quite a number of victories.


    Even Gu Xin was defeated by sses, making him a dark horse among the rookies.


    As for Nono, she had not had many matches because she had rested for too long.


    As a result, she did not make the list.


    However, her strength had long been recognized by everyone.


    Although Gu Xin was not good at fighting, with his shameless superpower, he had won quite a few matches and was called a lucky yer by others.


    ¡­


    By the time Su Chen dragged his exhausted body back to his residence, it was already ten o¡¯clock in the evening.


    Before that, he had gone to eat after starving for the whole day.


    The most infuriating thing was that after Su Chen won, when he asked Gao Fei for the evolution potion, Gao Fei avoided the topic by saying that he would replenish Su Chen after he joined the team.


    Although the evolution potion might not be useful to him, Su Chen still felt like he was working for free.


    That was right. Su Chen thought that Gao Fei treated him as a sparring partner for the rookies.


    Over the course of the day, he was even asked to y against several rookies over and over again.


    With many thoughts in mind, Su Chen finally fell into a deep sleep in his residence.

 Chapter 35

    Chapter 35: The Exploration Mission Was About to Arrive!


    Su Chen woke up from his small bed.


    Time passed quickly during training sses.


    In the blink of an eye, more than ten days had passed.


    During this period of time, Gao Fei had taught everyone several times in the form of theory lessons and practicalbat training.


    This included their group battle.


    Today, it was time for Su Chen and the others to engage in group battle.


    ¡°Fortunately, Captain Gao Fei still has a bit of a conscience.¡±


    Walking on the way to the training ground, Su Chen muttered to himself.


    .


    Over the past few days, Su Chen had been used by Gao Fei countless times as a sparring partner for everyone.


    Although Mark¡¯s treatment seemed to be a bit worse, he was used as a target for the neers to practice their superpowers.


    However, after these few days, Su Chen was also extremely tired.


    What he was d about now was that after these few days ofbat training, Gao Fei had already given up on the idea of Su Chen fighting one against many.


    Everyone was a neer. Under Gao Fei¡¯s guidance, they grew extremely quickly.


    After a few days of training, it was not easy for Su Chen to fight one against many.


    Seeing that everyone had almost finished training themselves, Gao Fei decided to directly start groupbat training.


    The team had been decided.


    They were selected from those who had been confirmed to graduate sessfully.


    The first team was Su Chen, Nono, and a level-one superpowered man named Kenan.


    The second team was Zhang Yi, Gu Xin, and sses.


    Including Gu Xin who joinedter, six out of the eighteen people could join the exploration team after half a month of training.


    This was the highest quality of new recruitspared to all the previous training sessions.


    In just these few days, Su Chen received an evolution potion from Gao Fei as a reward for his hard work as a sparring partner.


    Secondly, Zhang Yi also received one from his father. His strength had broken through to the third stage and reached the level three beginner. There was not much difference between him and Su Chen.


    Therefore, the two of them started their team battle training as team leaders.


    What drove Su Chen crazy was that even after he had injected the evolution potion, it still had no effect. His body seemed to have a natural resistance toward the evolution potion!


    The wasted evolution potion made him feel extremely pained.


    It also strengthened Su Chen¡¯s desire to meet more Origin Beasts as soon as possible. His strength could only depend on hunting Origin Beasts to increase.


    As he recalled the events that had happened in the past few days, Su Chen had already arrived at the arena.


    ¡°Su Chen!¡±


    As soon as he arrived at the arena, Su Chen heard a light and lively shout.


    He turned his head and smiled as he greeted Nono.


    During these few days, the two of them had be more familiar with each other.


    After greeting each other, Su Chen and Nono walked into the arena together.


    Today, he did note early. He and Nono were thest to arrive.


    ¡°You came sote. Are you afraid?¡± Zhang Yi said to Su Chen.


    Ever since the two of them had fought that day, Zhang Yi had acted as if nothing had happened. He still had the same arrogant attitude toward Su Chen.


    However, after interacting with him for a few days, Su Chen could see that his nature was not too bad. It was just that there was something wrong with his brain.


    Therefore, Su Chen did not have any thoughts of haggling over it.


    ¡°When you guys lose, won¡¯t you know if you¡¯re afraid?¡± Nono shouted angrily at Zhang Yi.


    ¡°Hmph, I won¡¯t lower myself to the level of a woman!¡± Zhang Yi coldly snorted and turned his head away.


    Seeing that Su Chen hade over, Gu Xin eagerly ran to him and said, ¡°Su Chen, during today¡¯s team training, you have to be a little gentler. We have been good brothers for many years!¡±


    ¡°Of course! We¡¯re definitely good brothers for life!¡± Su Chen replied with a smile.


    ¡°Don¡¯t, don¡¯tugh! I¡¯ve noticed that you and Captain Gao Fei are getting more and more alike recently. Nothing good happens when you twough!¡±


    Seeing Su Chen¡¯s gloomy smile, Gu Xin waved his hand repeatedly.


    ¡°Cough, cough.¡±


    Just as he waved his hand, Su Chen coughed twice and gestured for Gu Xin to look behind him.


    Gu Xin did not think much of it. ¡°You¡¯re not going to say that Captain Gao Fei is right behind me, are you? Do you think I¡¯ll fall for your trick again?¡±


    In the past few days, Su Chen had used Gao Fei to scare him many times.


    However, Su Chen¡¯s reaction today seemed to be different from usual.


    An ominous premonition arose in Gu Xin¡¯s heart.


    He turned his head with some difficulty and met Gao Fei¡¯s calm gaze.


    Gu Xin was frightened on the spot.


    ¡°Hello¡­ Captain!¡±


    Fortunately, Gao Fei did not care about anything and directly announced the contents of today¡¯s match.


    ¡°The six of you will have a match, but you will still not be able to use any weapons or equipment. This is only a team cooperation training before you graduate.


    ¡°There is one more thing. The Lighthouse has already advanced to the vicinity of the target area and will start the next operation in the near future. As for the specific situation,e to the training hall tomorrow to learn more.¡±


    Gao Fei¡¯s news was undoubtedly a bombshell!


    The Lighthouse¡¯s next operation was about to start!


    The reason why Gao Fei informed them was obviously because they had obtained the qualification to participate!


    For a moment, everyone was eager to try.


    Even Su Chen and Gu Xin were participating in the mission asbat members for the first time!


    ¡°Oh right, your performance today will be the basis for each team to recruit people!¡±


    Gao Fei spoke again.


    When he heard this news, the first person to get excited was definitely Nono!


    ¡°Captain Gao Fei! Is your team still recruiting people? What do you think of me?¡±


    The startled Nono made Gao Fei¡¯s eyebrows jump.


    Although this little girl had extraordinary talent, she did not consider the consequences when she fought.


    ording to the past, she did not meet the requirements of his team.


    However, Gao Fei did not strike a blow to Nono¡¯s confidence. He directly said, ¡°Let¡¯s see your performance today.¡±


    Upon hearing this, Nono was instantly filled with energy!


    As long as Gao Fei did not directly refuse, there was still a chance!


    During these few days, she already knew that Su Chen had joined Gao Fei¡¯s team. It was even very likely that he would bring Gu Xin along.


    The reason was very simple. Although Gu Xin was not very smart, his cooperation with Su Chen made Gao Fei somewhat amazed.


    Hence, he simply recruited both of them.


    Gu Xinined to Su Chen for a long time, saying that he had wasted a lot of food at the registration counter!


    Unexpectedly, after building a good rtionship with Su Chen, he actually awakened her superpower and directly joined Captain Gao Fei¡¯s team!


    It was precisely because Gao Fei had epted both of them that Nono wanted to fight for a chance.


    As they warmed up, the game bell officially sounded!

 Chapter 36 - Team Training

    Chapter 36: Team Training


    <strong>Trantor: </strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion  <strong>Editor: </strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion


    ¡°Yo, the young people seem to be quite motivated!¡±


    Gao Fei had just taken a seat in the stands when he heard a familiar voice.


    Turning his head, he realized that it was indeed an old acquaintance.


    ¡°General Li, you¡¯re in a good mood today. You still want toe to the arena to take a look?¡±


    The person who came was Li Mo.


    Gao Fei was not surprised by Li Mo¡¯s arrival.


    The next mission was about to begin. As the mission was important and dangerous, it was rare for Gao Fei and Li Mo to lead the team together.


    Li Mo probably wanted to pick some good seedlings bying over at this time.


    .


    Gao Fei did not mind now. He had already taken in Gu Xin and Su Chen. The rest was up to Li Mo to pick.


    Unlike before, Li Mo actually wanted to snatch people from his hands!


    ¡°From the looks of it, have you already chosen your people?¡± Li Mo asked curiously when he saw that Gao Fei was unmoved by his arrival.


    ¡°That little fatty, and Su Chen.¡± Gao Fei pointed in the direction of the arena.


    Seeing this, Li Mo said somewhat dispiritedly, ¡°If it wasn¡¯t for the fact that I¡¯ve been dealing with the next mission for the past few days, would these good seedlings still be in your hands?¡±


    Seeing that Li Mo had been defeated by him, Gao Fei¡¯s mood was somewhat happy.


    After all, Li Mo was a legend of The Lighthouse. His other identity was that Li Mo was also Gao Fei¡¯s teacher.


    However, when he was teaching Gao Fei, Li Mo had cheated many of his disciples.


    While the two of them were talking, the battle on the arena had already begun!


    The six people in the arena did not notice Li Mo¡¯s arrival. Instead, they werepletely focused on the battle that was about to begin!


    ¡°Kenan! Stall Gu Xin!¡±


    As the match began, Su Chen directly gave the order.


    Kenan¡¯s special ability was to strengthen his legs. While his legs possessed powerful offensive capabilities, they could also give him a huge increase in movement speed.


    This made Su Chen extremely envious. He was thinking about the day when he would have to fuse with a cheetah¡¯s Origin Beast Soul.


    It was precisely because of Kenan¡¯s powerful movement speed that Su Chen had asked him to stall Gu Xin.


    After a few days of fighting and familiarizing themselves with each other, they had gained a considerable understanding of each other¡¯s special abilities.


    Gu Xin was not afraid of a powerful frontal attack. An Evolver like Kenan, who had a fast movement speed, was just right to target him.


    ¡°Nono, you dy Zhang Yi first.¡±


    ¡°Alright!¡± Nono replied.


    As soon as Su Chen¡¯s voice fell, his figure instantly shot toward thest person on the opponent¡¯s side, sses.


    One strike at a time was Su Chen¡¯s tactic!


    Just as Su Chen was halfway through his charge, he suddenly realized that the ground in front of him was not quite right. He quickly stopped his advance!


    In the next second, several giant steel pythons instantly charged out from the ground of the arena!


    Su Chen turned his head and looked in the direction of Zhang Yi and Nono.


    However, he saw Nono constantly moving around, dodging the pursuit of several giant steel pythons!


    She simply did not have the time to unleash her superpower!


    ¡°Aren¡¯t you underestimating me too much?!¡± Zhang Yi¡¯s voice came from not far away.


    Su Chen¡¯s eyes turned sharp. Over the past few days, Zhang Yi¡¯s growth had also been tremendous.


    After advancing, the number and speed of the giant steel pythons that he could control at the same time far surpassed the previous ones.


    A few days ago in the individualpetition, Nono defeated Zhang Yi because the giant python¡¯s movement speed was too slow.


    He did not expect Zhang Yi to be so much stronger in just a few days!


    However, he did not have the time toin about the opponent¡¯s growth speed.


    Su Chen only knew that if they could not alleviate Nono¡¯s situation, their side would be broken one by one!


    Just as Zhang Yi was dying the two of them, sses had already rushed toward Kenan¡¯s position, intending to attack Kenan together with Gu Xin!


    ¡°Kenan, hold on for now!¡±


    As Su Chen spoke, he had already rushed toward Zhang Yi¡¯s position.


    ¡°Who gave you the guts? You still want to fight 1v2?¡±


    As Su Chen¡¯s voice fell, his figure had already closed in on Zhang Yi!


    At this distance, with Nono¡¯s help, the two of them could quickly end the battle!


    Seeing Su Chen charging toward him,Zhang Yi shouted in a low voice, ¡°Iron python!¡±


    Along with his voice, a huge python emerged from the alloy ground. Zhang Yi stepped on the python¡¯s head and instantly retreated backward!


    ¡°I advise you to take a good look. who exactly is fighting 1v2?¡±


    Hearing that, Su Chen turned around abruptly.


    He saw Gu Xin¡¯s huge body rushing toward Nono¡¯s direction. ¡°Flesh bullet charge!¡±


    Although Gu Xin¡¯s technique was not well-known, its power was indeed terrifying.


    Nono did not dare to receive this attack head-on!


    She was instantly forced back by Gu Xin.


    Just as Nono was dodging Gu Xin¡¯s charge, Zhang Yi had already found an opportunity!


    Several iron pythons emerged from the ground and bound Nono!


    ¡°What a pity!¡± Zhang Yi sighed inwardly. He was constantly expending his esper ability and staying far away from Su Chen.


    He was unable to control the iron pythons to summon swords and sabers. Otherwise, Nono would have been able to retreat with just this one strike!


    At the same time, Kenan was also continuously being forced back by the powerful attacks from the huge right arm of the bespectacled man.


    For Su Chen¡¯s team, the situation had taken a sharp turn for the worse!


    At the same time,Li Mo¡¯s eyes lit up in the stands, and he could not help but praise, ¡°I didn¡¯t expect that the students you¡¯ve trained are not bad. Their coordination is quite good!¡±


    ¡°Unlike you?¡± Gao Fei replied in a bad mood.


    If it were not for his tenacious willpower, he probably would not have been able tost until the end of his apprenticeship under Li Mo.


    The wheel battle that had tortured Su Chen and the others until they were not even human-shaped a few days ago was a normal urrence for Li Mo!


    Returning to the arena,Su Chen naturally could see that the situation was not good.


    Once Zhang Yi seized the opportunity to eliminate Nono, their team would most likely face defeat!


    Under such circumstances, he no longer hid his strength.


    The two horns that were shining with golden light instantly gathered above Su Chen¡¯s head.


    Powerful energy waves were emitted continuously!


    Seeing Su Chen be serious, Zhang Yi¡¯s expression became serious.


    If he were to be hit by Su Chen, he would have to lie in the hospital for two days even with The Lighthouse¡¯s superb medical technology!


    ¡°Gu Xin, stop Su Chen!¡± Zhang Yi immediately shouted.


    ¡°Alright!¡±


    Gu Xin agreed. Under the huge sticity of his body, he blocked Su Chen at a speed that conflicted with his body size.


    ¡°Dong!¡±


    A muffled sound was heard.


    Su Chen seemed to have sunk into Gu Xin¡¯s body!


    ¡°He seeded?¡± Zhang Yi was stunned when he saw this scene.


    Next, if Gu Xin could convert Su Chen¡¯s attack power, would he not be able to eliminate the most threatening Su Chen on the spot?!

 Chapter 37 - Narrow Victory

    Chapter 37: Narrow Victory


    <strong>Trantor: </strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion  <strong>Editor: </strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion


    At this moment, even sses and Kenan, who were in the middle of the battle, nervously looked toward Gu Xin¡¯s position.


    If they could eliminate Su Chen at this moment, Zhang Yi¡¯s team would be able to secure victory on the spot!


    Unfortunately, reality did not go as Zhang Yi had hoped.


    ¡°Dong!¡±


    A familiar sound rang out!


    It was precisely the sound that Gu Xin had made when he had knocked Nono out of the arena!


    However, this time, it was different.


    It was Gu Xin¡¯s huge figure that was flying backward!


    ¡°This is impossible!¡± Zhang Yi could not help but exim!


    Everyone present knew how powerful Gu Xin¡¯s rebound was!


    In the past few days, almost everyone had been tortured by Gu Xin¡¯s abnormal rebound ability!


    At this moment, Su Chen was still maintaining the posture of swinging his fist, standing on the spot!


    On the spectator stand, Li Mo said in surprise, ¡°Your strength is not bad!¡±


    .


    He looked at Su Chen¡¯s feet, and the soles of his feet had already stepped on the alloy-cast ground, creating a deep dent!


    It was hard to imagine how much strength Su Chen had erupted at the moment the two collided!


    Li Mo was not the only one surprised. Even Gao Fei did not expect Su Chen to be able to defeat Gu Xin in a head-on confrontation.


    In his opinion, Gu Xin¡¯s superpower had a huge advantage in a head-on confrontation.


    From this, it could be seen that Su Chen¡¯s power was extremely terrifying when he used his superpower.


    The power unleashed in an instant was definitely beyond what Gu Xin could absorb!


    Just as Zhang Yi was shocked by Su Chen¡¯s performance¡­


    A moment of rxation appeared!


    ¡°me burst!¡±


    Nono took this opportunity to directly release her ultimate ability!


    She had not been idle during the time that she had been confined.


    Instead, she had been continuing the energy in her body. She believed that Su Chen would definitely create an opportunity for her and the opportunity was now!


    This time, Nono did not release all of her energy.


    There were still two level onepanions on the field. No matter what, they would not be able to block Nono¡¯s all-out attack!


    Even so, the Instant Nono released her me st, the level one sses and Kenan were pulled off the field by Wan Ling. They were unable to resist the terrifying heat of the me st.


    ¡°We seem to be two outsiders,¡± sses said to Kenan as he looked at the terrifying attacks on the field.


    ¡°That¡¯s true.¡± Kenan smiled bitterly.


    Even if the two of them had sessfully obtained the qualification to join the exploration team, they still did not have an advantagepared to the four people on the field.


    At this moment, a strong wind blew over!


    ¡°Wait! It doesn¡¯t seem to be only four people!¡± sses pulled Kenan away as he spoke.


    Just as the two of them were dodging, a huge figure smashed toward them!


    ¡°Ouch, it hurts so much!¡±


    ¡°Sister Wan Ling, you¡¯re treating me differently! You didn¡¯t even catch me!¡±


    Gu Xin shrunk back to his normal size andined while touching his butt.


    ¡°You¡¯re so thick-skinned, so it¡¯s fine even if you fall a few times.¡± Wan Ling chuckled.


    After interacting with him for the past few days, she realized that this little fatty was quite interesting.


    After chatting andughing, everyone once again turned their attention to the arena.


    Nono used the power of the me st to instantly eliminate two people.


    Gu Xin, who had been sent flying by Su Chen, was also eliminated at the same time after receiving the impact of the me st!


    ¡°Yo, this little girl is not bad! I want her!¡± Li Mo looked at Nono and praised.


    ¡°Nono? Sure!¡± Gao Fei promised.


    Li Mo turned his head to look at Gao Fei, only to see a faint smile on Gao Fei¡¯s face.


    ¡®What kind of illness did this kid have today?¡¯


    Li Mo thought to himself. Gao Fei usually was not like this.


    However, he did not think too much about it. Gao Fei already had two people leaving, so it would be easy for him to pick one person!


    With this thought in mind, Li Mo once again looked toward the center of the arena.


    Currently, only Su Chen, Nono, and Zhang Yi were left on the stage!


    Following the dispersing of the mes, Zhang Yi revealed his figure from behind the python.


    He took a deep breath.


    This situation had taken a few twists and turns, once again returning to a 2v1 situation.


    However, this time, the person facing two enemies had once again be Zhang Yi.


    Zhang Yi did not waste any time.


    Taking advantage of the opportunity, Zhang Yi decided to fight again!


    ¡°Huhu!¡± Nono ced her hands on her hips and panted non-stop.


    Even if the me st did not deplete her energy, her current state was about the same.


    Only Su Chen was still standing on the stage after facing Gu Xin and Nono¡¯s continuous attacks.


    There was nothing they could do. Nono¡¯s me st was an AoE attack, so everyone within the range was not spared.


    At this moment, his two horns were still shining with a golden glow. Among the three of them, Su Chen seemed to be in the best condition!


    ¡°Iron Maiden!¡± Zhang Yi¡¯s low voice broke the silence on the stage.


    As his voice fell, two huge coffins made of alloy with human figures engraved on them appeared around the two of them!


    ng!


    ng!


    The two huge coffins were instantly pressed down!


    This attack had exhausted all the energy in Zhang Yi¡¯s body!


    The only difference was that the coffins that Nono was facing did not have any iron thorns in them. This was something that Zhang Yi had intentionally done.


    With Nono¡¯s current condition, once she faced all the Iron Maidens, she would definitely be heavily injured.


    As for Su Chen, Zhang Yi was the one who had truly attacked with his full strength!


    It was not a personal vendetta, but his respect for Su Chen¡¯s strength!


    Just as he expected, Nono left the moment she was locked in the coffin!


    At the same time!


    ¡°Ka!¡±


    ¡°Ka!¡±


    ¡°Ka!¡±


    The sound of metal breaking could be heard from the Iron Maiden who were locking Su Chen up!


    Creak¡­


    The Iron Maidens were being opened from the inside while they were trembling!


    This time, Su Chen was not so rxed. His entire body was covered with wounds from the Iron Maiden.


    The horns on his head were still shining with golden light.


    ¡°Hu¡­ hu¡­¡±


    When resisting the strong bite force of the Iron Maiden, Su Chen had consumed too much energy.


    Otherwise, his body would not be as simple as a few wounds.


    The current Su Chen had already used up more than half of his energy and did not have much stamina left.


    However, the deciding factor for the victory was the current Su Chen.


    He was still standing on the stage!


    He stood at thest one in the arena.


    ¡°I admit defeat.¡±


    Seeing Su Chen break free from the Iron Maiden, Zhang Yi said with a bitter smile.


    The exhausted Su Chen had already copsed on the ground.


    The only thing that kept him from fainting was to see if Su Chen could resist the Iron Maiden that he released with all his strength.


    Now, everything was set in stone!


    Hearing Zhang Yi admit defeat, Su Chen let out a sigh of relief.


    He had finally won this match.


    He had almost failed to block the full-power attack of a level three superpowered man.


    Even if he had managed to block the attack, Su Chen was still covered in wounds.


    The clothes on his body had been cut into pieces by the Iron Maiden. Fortunately, Zhang Yi had a conscience, so he did not attack Su Chen¡¯s important parts.


    This battle was really enjoyable!

 Chapter 38 - Su Chen鈥檚 Origins

    Chapter 38: Su Chen¡¯s Origins


    <strong>Trantor: </strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion  <strong>Editor: </strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion


    ¡°Su Chen, this kid has be so strong after not seeing each other for a few years.¡±


    Li Mo looked at Su Chen who was standing on the field and muttered.


    ¡°If he knew the truth, this kid might not have joined my team,¡± Gao Fei replied.


    The reason why Li Mo was known as The Lighthouse¡¯s legend was precisely because of The Lighthouse¡¯s first exploration operation. During that operation, Li Mo had not only brought back arge amount of resources, but also an infant.


    That infant was Su Chen.


    Gao Fei recalled that not many people knew the secret that Su Chen was not a native of The Lighthouse.


    Later, due to the strict management of The Lighthouse, Li Mo did not visit Su Chen often. He would asionally anonymously ask the caretaker to bring some daily necessities for the young Su Chen.


    .


    After knowing that Su Chen could live a normal life, Li Mo did not pay too much attention to Su Chen.


    This was because at that time, Li Mo had already be the manager of The Lighthouse¡¯s exploration team, and he was busy with a lot of work every day.


    ¡°Let¡¯s not talk about this. Why don¡¯t the two of us talk about where these rookies belong?¡±


    Li Mo¡¯s voice interrupted Gao Fei¡¯s thoughts.


    Gao Fei nced at Li Mo and replied, ¡°Can¡¯t you just pick them? You know that I¡¯m not good at managing members. Otherwise, I only have Wan Ling and Mark under me.¡±


    Hearing Gao Fei¡¯s words, Li Mo was immediately angered. ¡°You still have the face to bring this up?¡±


    ¡°The talent of those two people under you can be considered as the best in the entire lighthouse!


    ¡°In addition, you chose Su Chen and that little fatty this time! Which one of them doesn¡¯t have outstanding talent?!¡±


    Every time he thought of this, Li Mo would get angry. He had to be busy with the management of the entire lighthouse¡¯s exploration team. During this period, Gao Fei had used many loopholes to poach many rookies with great potential.


    ¡°Forget it. I won¡¯t argue with you this time. These rookies are all good!


    ¡°Especially Zhang Yi and Nono. At least you have some conscience and know how to keep them for me.¡±


    Li Mo thought for a moment and said in the end.


    Judging from the battle just now, Nono¡¯s talent was outstanding. The characteristics of her superpower allowed her to develop toward the direction of extreme attacks.


    Such talents were rare.


    There was also Zhang Yi. If he was properly groomed, he would also be a goodmander.


    Zhang Yi¡¯s analysis of the situation was very urate. His decision-making in each period of time was very outstanding.


    The remaining two people, although they did not have too many opportunities to perform, their battle awareness was not bad. Although they could not immediately carry out missions, after a little grooming, they were also good seedlings.


    Therefore,Li Mo nned to take all four of them under hismand.


    With this n in mind, Li Mo and Gao Fei left the stands and came to the front of the people who had just finished the battle.


    ¡°Hello, General Li Mo!¡±


    ¡°Hello, Captain Gao Fei!¡±


    The people only saw Li Mo at this time and hurriedly greeted him.


    For example, it was the first time for Nono, Zhang Yi and the others to see Li Mo in person. They had only seen him in the videos before.


    Even so, Li Mo¡¯s somber aura left a deep impression on them.


    They recognized Li Mo at a nce.


    Gao Fei nodded slightly and said, ¡°The nextbat sequence will decide who you all belong to. Although it will be chosen by General Li Mo, everything will be voluntary in the end.¡±


    As Gao Fei finished speaking, everyone was overjoyed.


    There were not many opportunities to join General Li Mo¡¯s team!


    There was no such thing as voluntary. As long as Li Mo chose them, Zhang Yi and the others would not hesitate at all!


    Seeing this,Su Chen and Gu Xin directly stood beside Gao Fei. This was what they had agreed on previously.


    Li Mo did not drag things out. He directly looked at the remaining four people and asked, ¡°Are you guys willing to join my exploration team?¡±


    Although the result was voluntary, Li Mo knew that this was just a formality. He was very confident in his ability to rally people!


    As expected,Zhang Yi, Kenan, and sses immediately agreed. Their faces were filled with excitement!


    However, when Li Mo looked at Nono, he liked this little girl. Her talent was probably the best of all!


    As he looked over, Li Mo saw a hesitant and struggling expression on Nono¡¯s face?


    What was going on?


    Before Li Mo could react,Nono seemed to have made up her mind as she spoke softly,¡°General Li Mo¡­ I want to join Captain Gao Fei¡¯s team.¡±


    Li Mo was speechless.


    Looking at Nono¡¯s pitiful eyes, Li Mo was dumbfounded. How was he inferior to that kid, Gao Fei?


    Could it be that Gao Fei had already sent him away and was making fun of Li Mo?


    ¡°Pfft.¡±


    At this moment, Gu Xin, who was standing behind Gao Fei, could not help butugh out loud.


    He was immediately red at by Su Chen. He seemed to say, ¡®We have received professional training. Under normal circumstances, we can¡¯tugh!¡¯


    Before Gao Fei could speak, Li Mo looked at Gao Fei with a fierce look in his eyes.


    ¡°Kid, you¡¯ve grown wings! You want to snatch someone from my hands?¡±


    Hearing this, Gao Fei felt wronged. Then, he spread his hands and said, ¡°I¡¯ve already chosen Su Chen and Gu Xin. General Li Mo, you¡¯ve wronged me.¡±


    After exining, Gao Fei looked at Nono and said, ¡°There are too many people in the team. I¡¯m not good at management. Captain Li Mo¡¯s subordinates are not bad either.¡±


    This sentence was the truth. Although Nono¡¯s talent was indeed outstanding, it was Gao Fei¡¯s problem that he was not good at management.


    When Li Mo heard Gao Fei¡¯s words, his expression became a little better.


    ¡®That was more like it. I think Gao Fei didn¡¯t have the guts to make fun of me!¡¯


    ¡°Mm¡­ as long as Captain Gao Fei can let me join the team, I¡¯ll be fine as a logistics officer!¡±


    After Nono made up her mind, even her voice became a lot louder.


    Seeing this,Gao Fei looked at the dark-faced Li Mo and pretended to be hesitant as he said, ¡°Since that¡¯s the case, I¡¯ll reluctantly agree.¡±


    Hearing this, Nono smiled like a flower and immediately replied,¡±Thank you, Captain!¡±


    ¡°You¡¯re doing really well now, Gao Fei!¡± Li Mo left with a sentence, and in the end, he even emphasized the pronunciation of the words, ¡®Gao Fei¡¯.


    Seeing that Li Mo seemed to be on the verge of acting up, Gao Fei did not dare to offend his teacher.


    He quietly changed the topic and said,¡°Since the candidates have been decided, I¡¯ll give you a rough idea of the next mission.


    ¡°The next mission will be led by General Li Mo and I together!¡±


    As Gao Fei¡¯s voice fell, all the rookies present became serious.


    It was a mission, and it was equivalent to a matter of life and death!

 Chapter 39 - Prometheus Biopharmaceutical Company

    Chapter 39: Prometheus Biopharmaceutical Company


    <strong>Trantor: </strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion  <strong>Editor: </strong>EndlessFantasy Trantion


    ¡°Now that The Lighthouse has moved to nkenberg, our next target is an underwater research institute located at a depth of nearly 100 meters in the Dover Strait.¡±


    Gao Fei went straight to the point and directly told them the destination of this trip.


    ¡°Underwaterbat?¡± Gu Xin eximed.


    Before this, other than Su Chen, no one knew the location of the next mission.


    When Gao Fei told them the target of the mission, everyone was shocked.


    One had to know that themutated beasts in the ocean were far more dangerous than those on the ground!


    After the mutation, humans rarely went underwater. Even Evolvers were limited in underwaterbat.


    After all, they had not heard of any Evolver who could breathe underwater.


    .


    ¡°Fortunately, the mission target is in the strait. It¡¯s not as dangerous as the ocean,¡± Zhang Yi said in a deep voice.


    ¡°That¡¯s right. The mission target is in the Dover Strait. Although Origin Beasts are still a threat, at this depth, there won¡¯t be any Origin Beasts that are too big.¡±


    Su Chen agreed with Zhang Yi¡¯s point of view. Although this mission was extremely dangerous, it was not to the point of certain death.


    What Gao Fei said next was probably the reason for this mission.


    With this thought in mind, Su Chen looked at Gao Fei again and listened to him continue.


    ¡°In a certain research institute in Paris, France, The Lighthouse received information about this research institute.


    ¡°This research institute belongs to the Prometheus Biopharmaceutical Company of the old era. After the disaster, because it was underwater, this research institute continued to operate for a period of time.


    ¡°ording to the news, it was not until five years ago that this biological research institute was abandoned. It is very likely that there is still arge amount of research information rted to Origin Beasts.


    ¡°At the same time, there is also arge amount of energy reaction in the research institute.


    ¡°The above is the reason for this operation.¡±


    As Gao Fei¡¯s voice fell, everyone nodded slightly. Gao Fei had made it very clear.


    Even if the information in the research institute had been destroyed due to time, those energy was still necessary for The Lighthouse.


    ¡°So it¡¯s like this!¡±Gu Xin pped his thigh and eximed, attracting everyone¡¯s attention.


    Su Chen looked at Gu Xin, only to hear Gu Xin continue.


    ¡°I was wondering why Captain Gao Fei wanted us to conduct underwaterbat training a few days ago!¡±


    Su Chen helplessly touched his forehead.


    He thought to himself, why did this fatty only react at this time?


    In fact, when Gao Fei suddenly added an underwater drill to his training n, the rookies had more or less guessed the contents of this mission.


    It was only today that this matter was confirmed from Gao Fei¡¯s mouth.


    However, it was also because of the underwater training that when they heard about the underwater mission, there were not too many ripples in their hearts.


    When Li Mo saw that Gao Fei did not seem to want to continue, he added helplessly.


    ¡°Is this how you describe the mission objective?


    ¡°Can¡¯t you exin the details of the mission more clearly?¡±


    Gao Fei shrugged. He had already said that he was not good at these things. Since Li Mo was here today, there was no harm in letting him exin it in detail.


    Li Mo looked at Gao Fei¡¯s expression and had no choice but to exin in person.


    ¡°The location of this mission has been confirmed to be below the Dover Strait.¡±


    ¡°The Lighthouse¡¯s current location is nkenberg. Due to The Lighthouse being too heavy, it is unable to get close to the seaside.


    ¡°Therefore, the primary objective of the mission is to station a temporary base by the seaside and clear out the surrounding Origin Beasts.


    ¡°Secondly, it is the Prometheus Research Institute. This research institute is located about 10 kilometers below the sea.


    ¡°We need to use the transport vehicles to link the ships to the sea directly above the research institute.¡±


    Hearing this, Su Chen curled the corners of his mouth. He thought to himself that the content of the mission mentioned by Li Mo was like heaven and earthpared to Gao Fei.


    Before this, he did not know that the mission process that The Lighthouse had formted could be so detailed!


    During thest mission, all the information that Gao Fei had told everyone was a simple sentence which was to go to the wreckage of the spaceship near the Eiffel Tower in Paris and search for supplies.


    The ship that Li Mo had just mentioned was assembled and connected by fifteen lighthouse transport vehicles.


    It had to be said that lighthouses still attached great importance to vehicles.


    Su Chen had already understood this when he was in the maintenance department.


    Just as Su Chen¡¯s heart was filled with sorrow,Li Mo continued.


    ¡°Finally, and most importantly!


    ¡°The underwater danger level is very high, coupled with the environmental constraints.


    ¡°The duration of the mission is at most six hours!


    ¡°Once it exceeds this time, it is very likely that we will not be able to return to the surface!¡±


    Speaking up to this point, Li Mo also finished describing the entire process of this mission.


    Everyone nodded slightly after listening. With the detailed n, they had a clearer understanding of the mission content.


    Su Chen pondered for a moment before asking, ¡°General Li Mo, since the next target is the underwater research institute, how do we know that the research institute has not been destroyed so far?¡±


    This was the question he was most concerned about. Although the research institute had been abandoned, the difficulty of the mission was vastly different from direct underwaterbat without any internal damage.


    If the research institute had not been destroyed, at least they would have been able to fight in a dry environment after entering.


    Otherwise, with Nono¡¯s superpower, fighting in the water would not be much different from ordinary people!


    Hearing that, Li Mo said in a deep voice,¡°This is what I¡¯m going to talk about next.


    ¡°During thest exploration operation, a team has already arrived at the Dover Strait as the vanguard to carry out on-the-spot exploration.


    ¡°A lot of the information above was obtained from the data sent back by this team.


    ¡°This team is the seventh team, which has beenpletely annihted.


    ¡°They left behind a video of their final moment.¡±


    As he said this, Li Mo connected his wrist guard to the huge screen in the center of the arena.


    ¡°This video is the final information left behind by the seventh team with their lives!¡±


    Hearing this,Su Chen and the others focused their gazes on a pitch-ckrge screen.


    The content that was about to be yed here was rted to their survival in the next mission!

    ¡°Captain, the workers have lost all contact,¡± the woman¡¯s voice said.


    ¡°Gather information first. Hurry up!¡± The man¡¯s voice replied.


    On the huge screen, there was a man. Looking at his clothes, he was abat member of the exploration team.


    The two of them were in the underwater research institute.


    They were in the target mission area of Su Chen and the others!


    This man, ording to the way the woman addressed him, should be the captain of the seventh exploration team.


    Su Chen looked at the screen.


    The recording was on the female explorer.. Only the woman¡¯s voice could be heard on the screen, but her face could not be seen.


    The two of them should be in a research room.


    The lights in the research room were dim, but it proved that the infrastructure of the research institute was not damaged.


    It could still operate with sufficient energy.


    This was good news for the people who were about to carry out their mission.


    ¡°Yes!¡± The woman replied.


    Then, she began to collect information about the research institute.


    When the woman was collecting information, there was no sign of the man for the time being.


    However, from the sound of footstepsing from the screen, the man should be patrolling around the research institute at the moment.


    Other than that,Su Chen also heard a familiar rustling sound!


    ¡°This¡­ This is the sound of a petrified centipede?¡±Su Chen muttered.


    However, he rejected his idea.


    Su Chen had a deep impression of the sound produced when the petrified centipede moved.


    The walls of this research institute were made of alloy, just like the spaceship wreckage.


    However, the rustling sound was somewhat different from the petrified centipede at that time.


    However, what was certain was that there were arge number of monsters simr to the petrified centipede entrenched in this research institute.


    Su Chen was slightly embarrassed.


    This research institute was underwater!


    Once it was surrounded by arge number of monsters in the research institute, there was simply no way to escape!


    However, the information collected by the woman on the screen was clearly brought back to The Lighthouse in the end.


    Li Mo¡¯s reply to everyone was very clear.


    On this mission, the seventh team waspletely annihted and at this time, the only people left in the team were probably the captain and this female member.


    As the sound from the screen grew louder and louder, the woman¡¯s voice became louder and louder.


    The woman kept turning her head to look behind her.


    When she turned her head, Su Chen saw the cabin door behind her vibrating continuously!


    There were a lot of monsters outside, and they were probably trying to rush into this ce!


    Even though they were now in a safe lighthouse, when they saw this video, they could not help but break out in cold sweat.


    ¡°Hurry up and leave¡­¡± Nono said softly.


    She was already immersed in this video andpletely forgot about the main character in the video. The ending was already destined!


    Finally, about five minutes passed and as the movement from the cabin door behind the woman became more and more intense, she finally ended the work in her hands.


    ¡°Captain! The collection isplete!¡±


    ¡°You go first,¡± the man said in a deep voice.


    Hearing her captain¡¯s order, the woman did not hesitate at all.


    She directly ran toward the cabin that her captain pointed out.


    At the end of this scene, she saw the man¡¯s figure grow taller, and his muscles bulged. Obviously, he had activated his superpower.


    At this time, the vibrating cabin door was also broken open!


    A dense swarm of insects swarmed in through the broken cabin door!


    The image shed across in a blur.


    Su Chen tried his best to take a look. The monster¡¯s body was covered with a thick carapace. It seemed to be¡­


    ¡°A giant isopod?¡± Su Chen muttered.


    Li Mo was a little surprised when he heard Su Chen¡¯s voice.


    The conclusion of The Lighthouse¡¯s research was the same as Su Chen¡¯s. This monster with a terrifying appearance was very much a variant of the giant isopod!


    Unfortunately, as the screen went dark, and no one saw the man fighting the bug horde.


    Due to that, The Lighthouse did not know how the giant isopod attacked.


    As the screen appeared again, it was still showing a woman¡¯s view.


    This time, it was in the escape pod of the research institute.


    However, the escape pod was empty. From the environment of the pod, the vehicle that was parked there should have been a small submarine.


    The reason she went here was to enter the sea through the escape tunnel.


    The woman searched around the pod and finally found two fully-covered breathing masks.


    However, she did not leave immediately.


    Instead, she paced anxiously on the spot as if she was waiting for the arrival of the captain.


    ¡°Dong!¡±


    A muffled sound was heard.


    The woman looked toward the source of the sound and eximed, ¡°Captain!¡±


    The man in the video was covered in blood, as if he had been cut by a sharp de!


    The video ended here, and it was pitch ck again.


    Seeing this scene, Su Chen¡¯s eyes turned cold.


    These wounds were probably caused by the giant isopod.


    As the color shed on the screen, the image appeared again and this time, the two of them were in deep ocean water!


    In the pitch-ck ocean water, just looking at the screen made one feel an infinite sense of oppression!


    It was as if it could stir up the deepest fear in one¡¯s heart.


    Other than the sound of the two of them moving the ocean water, the scene was extremely quiet.


    Right at this moment, the sound of the ocean water being quickly broken came from below!


    The man in the video had an extremely terrified expression on his face!


    It was hard to believe that such an expression would appear on the face of an experienced explorer!


    Then, the two figures seemed to be pulled by some huge force as they quickly sank into the depths of the sea.


    Below them was endless darkness.


    In the video, a huge tentacle with a diameter of nearly half a meter appeared at the end.


    The video ended there.


    ¡°Hiss¡­¡±


    As the video ended, everyone sucked in a breath of cold air.


    From the beginning to the end, there was no scene of a direct battle. However, this video gave people an oppressive feeling that they could not resist.


    It was a terrifyingly suffocating feeling!


    Li Mo¡¯s voice broke the silence. ¡°The monster that appearedst is still hovering around the research institute, and it will be thergest obstacle to our next mission.


    ¡°The preliminary research results of The Lighthouse¡¯s Research Institute indicated that the other party is an octopus-shaped Origin Beast. After mutating, it probably has the ability to regenerate. We must be careful.¡±


    Regeneration ability!


    Su Chen caught this keyword!


    He licked his dry lips. Once he could absorb this Origin Beast¡¯s soul¡­


    Su Chen was the first to dismiss this idea. As long as he could survive the next mission, it would be enough.


    The video just now had already exined the dangers of the mission.


    Gao Fei¡¯s deep voice interrupted Su Chen¡¯s thoughts.


    ¡°Take a day off tomorrow and make preparations. The morning after tomorrow, we will start the next mission!¡±


    ¡°Meeting adjourned!¡±
