Chapter 59 - 55 Evolution Information
Chapter 59: Chapter 55 Evolution InformationLin Xian replied indifferently, "That’s not necessarily true; you have to see it to know."
Jiang Yun scrutinized him with a gaze before nodding and saying, "That’s no problem. Actually, a more standard version of this is available at some of the Federation Phoenix Association’s rescue points, but due to the issue of extreme night, all rescue points are constantly moving. Or the perpetual Underground Cities might have them too, but likewise, once the extreme night covers, it’s difficult for supplies to get in, and people to get out."
"As for the information on the evolution of superpowers..." Jiang Yun forced a smile, looked around, and continued, "I can only tell you that every superpower evolves differently, and each requires specific information. If it’s one of the types announced by the Phoenix Society, I can tell you directly, but if it’s not, then I’m not sure if anyone here knows, and even if they do..."
"What, can such secrets be traded?" KIKI responded at this moment.
Jiang Yun nodded meaningfully, "Yes, but not necessarily, since there are so many types of superpowers now. Besides, even with the most common and simple superpowers like limb mimicry and Monster Shape Multiplication, their evolution isn’t as easy as just consuming blood food. Some people succeed, and some fail; this might be related to their individual superpower’s growth, their spiritual power, or the type of blood food. It’s all uncertain, so even if someone unselfishly reveals their evolution method, it may not be correct since it varies from person to person."
"And there’s also this," Jiang Yun said profoundly, "even if someone tells you, how can you know whether it’s true or false?"
Lin Xian’s expression changed slightly upon hearing Jiang Yun’s words.
It seems the evolution of superpowers is far more complex than he imagined.
Everyone’s path to evolution is different; even with the same superpower, someone might stumble upon success, but could they really pinpoint the exact fortuity?
Unless some organization has the capability for extensive data collection, testing, experimentation, successful evolution through mere hearsay is doubtful, not to mention discerning its authenticity.
With this thought, he couldn’t help but sigh.
His own Mechanical Heart upgrade was very clear, with the only problem being a slight lack in combat power.
Thus, he set a goal for himself to become armored. If the opportunity arose, becoming like Iron Man was certainly a possibility.
After all, the Dragon Country Interstellar Army itself had technology like full-body outer Battle Armor. It’s just that he currently had no chance to access such things; he only knew about them from old media reports and what KIKI had told him.
Not to mention AI systems; reaching this stage, creating a combat robot maiden would be...
His thoughts were getting ahead.
"I have a team member who should possess the Body Enhancement Power, very strong. If anyone has information about this, we can trade."
Lin Xian used this opportunity to probe about the Building’s superpower; whether the information was true or false, he could only rely on his own judgment. If it could help the Building or KIKI evolve their superpower, it would greatly enhance their small team’s survival rate.
As for KIKI’s Telekinesis Ability, Lin Xian did not explicitly reveal it to avoid attracting a new wave of astonished gazes.
Although everyone present appeared friendly, it’s always prudent to hold something back.
"Body Enhancement Power?"
"I’ve seen and heard of it," the woman called Shu Qin spoke up, "but I don’t know if it’s true or useful. I heard that this power might require absorbing very heavy Blood Energy and possibly evolving only in a near-death state."
She finished speaking and shrugged.
"I’m just saying, not looking to trade anything. You’ll need to judge its usefulness for yourself."
Such matters were life and death, and she couldn’t be certain of anything and didn’t seem interested in trading.
Upon hearing this, both Lin Xian and KIKI’s expressions changed.
"Near-death state?"
"This information is still worth considering," a man in his fifties with a solemn expression said from the crowd. "Whether it’s announced by the Phoenix Society or spread among the Wanderer community, nearly all superpowers involve three things: an object, a certain change in body and mindset, and specific conditions."
"That’s right," Jiang Yun added. "From most of the information I know, no superpower evolves easily."
"I understand," Lin Xian nodded, sending a grateful gaze to the crowd.
He remembered Tang Hai from that night. Although it sounded simple, if evolving required getting bitten to death by Zombies, and the early-stage superpower didn’t show anything special, who would deliberately bleed out to let Zombies consume them?
"Alright, let’s continue then."
Seeing Lin Xian deep in thought, Jiang Yun urged the others to resume their turns speaking.
Tang Hai and KIKI were quietly discussing in a corner.
"The red bean, the Soul Swinging Value Detector, should all be manageable, but the evolution of superpowers doesn’t seem that simple..."
"I think you don’t have to worry about that at all." KIKI’s mouth curled up slightly, "As long as we can maintain information transmission to the outside, the secrets will sooner or later appear in the survivors’ view. Haven’t I said that the Angel Plan has always been re
So that’s how it is...
The so-called Dawn Plan was actually an emergency refuge for the privileged. No wonder all construction projects were conducted in secrecy. Before the extreme night came when Star Abyss had just formed, information about the Dawn Plan mainly came from some speculative leaked information.
"The end of the world has come, and they even got to the 9th Underground City; security measures can still be done so well, really damn efficient..."
"That’s why after the extreme night, the Federation Government collapsed, but since my dad took me, it means that the number 9 Underground City must already be operational and ready for people to move in."
Lin Xian nodded and said solemnly, "That being said, that number 9 Underground City is no longer considered official but a former government project, and it’s not open to the public. Except for you, the rest of us probably can’t get in."
"Who cares, maybe everyone inside is already dead. Even if there are still people, our goal isn’t to go in and become Underground Citizens." KIKI gave a sly smile and put her hands on her hips, "The people inside don’t treat civilians like humans, so why should we be polite with them?"
Lin Xian frowned slightly, looking at her with a half-smile.
"You mean, the few of us are going to a giant Underground City to scavenge?"
"Heh heh, it would be a waste not to go."
KIKI excitedly raised her eyebrows at him, a meaningful smile on her face, "Inside, there must be all kinds of cutting-edge tech and equipment, definitely heavy Mechas for defense, and to maintain a huge Underground City, there must be a nuclear power device. Maybe there’s even a Star Sky Propulsion System. You want to send your train soaring through the clouds, right? This is a great opportunity."
Lin Xian gazed at her eager expression, pausing for a second. He had to admit, what this girl said indeed touched him.
For his Mechanical Heart, this was indeed a great opportunity to upgrade the train before entering the Star Orbital.
"Hmm, we’ll discuss the details after we get back, let’s resolve what we have here first."
Lin Xian took a deep breath.
KIKI excitedly said, "Yay!"
Around the campfire, the leaders from a dozen vehicle teams communicated about the materials and issues they needed. As part of the trade, everyone would take out something that others needed. Even two vehicle teams reached a temporary consensus to merge and escape to the east together.
