Chapter 46 Angel Plan
Chapter 46 Angel Plan
The Infinity quietly drove out of North Bay Station in the night and continued to head east. On the way, KIKI asked Lin Xian, "Why are you in such a hurry? There are still many places we haven't visited yet."
"Supplies are endless, and being too greedy may lead to big losses." Lin Xian said calmly.
"That Tang Hai doesn't seem to be dead yet. I'm worried there might be other troubles."
"Not dead!?" KIKI frowned. "I thought he was dead."
"No……"
Lin Xian took a deep breath and told him what he saw at the beginning.
"I feel that Tang Hai may have some special ability, and the situation just now may be a change in the special ability."
At this time, he asked Lou Shasha and Lou Ye, "How much do you two know about superpowers?"
Lou Ye was stunned when he heard this, and shook his head earnestly.
“I’m not sure…”
Lou Ye didn't seem to know much about his own special abilities. He just knew that he suddenly became much more powerful one day.
"Oh bro, did you forget?"
At this time, Shasha revealed a key piece of information: "When Feng Yuming turned into a bug and attacked you just now, he said that you were still a low-level person, and that you didn't even know that your superpowers could evolve after killing the weird bodies and superpowers..."
Lou Ye scratched his head and said, "It seems so."
"Really?" Teacher Chen beside him exclaimed, "Can superpowers be upgraded?"
"It should work."
Lin Xian took a deep breath and said, "If there is a level, then Feng Yuming should not be the lowest level. He is very strong, and he is not afraid at all even though he knows there are three of us with special abilities. This shows that he is very confident."
After he finished speaking, he found that KIKI, who usually talked the most, was silent at this moment. So he raised his eyes, only to see KIKI squinting and smiling at him with a slightly strange look in her eyes.
"Just say it if you have something to say!" He knew that this little girl knew a lot of things. He felt a toothache when he saw her smile, so he said it immediately.
"If I tell you that I know how to upgrade superpowers and that superpowers are divided into many categories, would you like to know?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked at KIKI in surprise.
Lin Xian frowned. "Why? It seems like there are conditions?"
KIKI raised her eyebrows and suddenly leaned close to Lin Xian's ear and whispered something. Lin Xian couldn't help but pinch his trigeminal nerve with a headache and said helplessly
"Okay, I promise you"
"Hehe, keep your word~"
KIKI said very satisfied
"First of all." She raised her finger. "After the first polar night, tens of thousands of humans were found to have mutated all over the world. This is only a very small part of the post-disaster statistics. In order to deal with extreme disasters after the apocalypse, the federal government urgently established a special mutant research bureau called "Angel Project". The purpose, in addition to research, I guess they want to use this power to explore the secrets of Xingyuan and find a way to save the world..."
"How do you know all this?" Chen Sixuan looked at KIKI in surprise.
KIKI curled her lips and said proudly, "It's not difficult to hack into the federal government's intranet. Besides, it's the end of the world, who can care about me?"
"You go on."
Lin Xian looked at KIKI with scrutiny. This girl was able to take a rescue helicopter after the polar night. Regardless of whether she was the daughter of Linglong Group, her identity must be extraordinary. However, since she knew the available information, Lin Xian did not ask about the details.
cough~
KIKI cleared his throat
"This Angel Project has attracted some of the last remaining cutting-edge scientists. Through research, they found that all survivors who did not transform into zombies after the polar night have a very similar energy that repels the outside world. They call this energy the Soul-Draining Value. Even the weakest women and children who survived the polar night have a value of at least 1. In contrast, when observing zombies or some dark and strange entities, this value is below 0, a negative number."
"This discovery was initially thought to be some kind of screening mechanism, but because no pattern could be found, it was regarded as the survivors' "vital energy." "Then, the interesting thing came. All the superpowers, or strong adults, had significantly high values in this value, especially the superpowers. After the first polar night, this "Angel Project" had sorted out a catalog of 34 similar superpower categories, and evaluated the data of these superpowers from the functional and destructive aspects, and compared this value with the soul-sweeping value, and found that it was indeed correct."
"The Soul-Dangling Value represents the vitality or the survivability value that can resist the invasion of the night. The stronger the person, the higher this value will be."
"This is the first point."
KIKI continued, "The second key point is that superpowers are capable of evolution. The data even shows that a small number of people have already exceeded the third or even fourth level when they were discovered..."
"Third level, fourth level?" Lin Xian frowned and asked. "Did you forget to say something?"
KIKI shrugged. "Oh, I just took a quick look. It's probably a group of guys in the lab who made a lot of weighted assessments based on the Soul Dangling Value, physical strength, external energy and destructive power, lethal threat to organisms, etc. I took a quick look and found that all ordinary people or people with special abilities have a Soul Dangling Value between 1-100, which is called the [Source Species Level]. For example, the third level Diamond Level has basically completely surpassed the limits of the human body. Unless heavy thermal weapons are used, it is difficult to be killed. The Soul Dangling Value is defined as 500-1000."
"The fourth level, the violent level, is considered a huge threat to a region. It requires a large number of troops, heavy tanks, and various types of armored weapons to suppress it. The soul-destroying value is defined as within 1000-3000 combat units."
"As for levels above the destruction level, there is no detailed information because they don't have data in this area for the time being, so they just make an estimate of exponential growth based on the previous levels..."
Lou Shasha opened her eyes wide and couldn't help asking, "Sister KIKI, how did this ability evolve?"
"Well... this may be different from what everyone imagines."
KIKI said with a complicated expression, "I did see some information from those top-secret documents. It does show that after reaching Evolution Level (2), after defeating the Night Strange Body or even other psychics through battle, their Soul-Sweeping Value will increase to a certain extent. However, since it is an early initial report, the content is not very detailed."
"After the second level?" Lin Xian's eyes fixed, "What about the first level?"
"Hey!" KIKI looked at Lin Xian with interest. "You've hit the nail on the head."
She paced seriously and said, "The strangest thing is that the Inhuman Research Bureau found through some of the early data that different types of superpowers are actually very unstable when they are at the source level. These superpowers seem to need to go through some kind of ritual, event, or change in mentality and emotions in order to evolve. The Angel Project even believes that only from the second level can a true transformation or comprehensive evolution be completed, so they call this the evolution level or breakthrough level."
"Ritual?" As soon as these words were spoken, everyone responded in unison. It even sounded a bit like religious mythology.
"That's right." KIKI continued, "For example, Feng Yuming, I think he should belong to the 16th limb mimicry type or the 21st weird proliferation type in the "Angel Project". No matter which of these two types, as long as they are found to be able to kill the night weird body or the mutant, and then absorb flesh and blood through their own weird limbs or mutant torsos, they have a chance to complete the evolution. "
"But..." KIKI suddenly turned around and looked at Lou Ye. "For someone like Lou Da, from your description, you should have a Type 3 body enhancement ability, which is a relatively common type among all psychics. But the strange thing is that if this ability wants to evolve to the second level, there are multiple uncertain evaluation reports in the "Angel Project". It is completely impossible to use Feng Yuming's method. It is called a different evolutionary path!"
"Is this true?!" Lou Shasha exclaimed, "It sounds so scary?"
"Who knows?" KIKI shrugged. "Whether it's from the perspective of biology or physics... well, okay, these two subjects no longer exist in this world, so just treat it as theology."
"Another point is that this research bureau believes that the evolution of superpowers has two sides, which means that superpowers also have the same weaknesses as zombies. If they do not meet certain conditions, they will be eroded by this power and gradually evolve incorrectly or become zombies. In other words, when a person's soul value is lower than 1, they call this situation... degeneration!"
"Degeneration?"
"What about Tang Hai?" Lin Xian looked at her. "Have you seen the situation I just saw in the file?"
KIKI nodded, looking serious. "Not only have I seen him, but I can be sure that he belongs to No. 32. This type of ability is called uncertain infection type, which is very interesting." KIKI frowned and said, "The data shows that this ability is very difficult to detect at the source stage, because they do not have any physical or mental changes. The only characteristic is..."
“Will it not be easily noticed by zombies?” Lin Xian’s face darkened when he thought of that scene.
"That's right!!"
KIKI nodded. "But this type of ability is the easiest to evolve."
Lin Xian frowned and said, "Is it possible to upgrade as long as you are bitten to death by a zombie..."
"Yes and no."
KIKI tilted his head and said with a slightly gloomy look
"Based on the statistics of some of the cases collected, evolution is not inevitable or has a certain result. It is also possible... that evolution may go wrong!"
