◎The progress of the progress bar has nothing to do with the 'game'◎

Listening to Yan Jing's unclear explanation, Yan Jue leaned back on the sofa with his arms folded. "Tell me more clearly, what happened?"

"Let me explain," Tian Yiwen offered. "Perhaps I know more than Yan Jing."

Rong Xiao beside her opened her eyes wide with curiosity. She also heard something from the vague conversation. She was very interested in Yan Jue's secret.

"Rong Xiao, are you still feeling a little tired?" Tian Yiwen didn't rush to explain. She smiled and motioned Rong Xiao to come to her side, and took out an injection from her side.

Seeing an injection is never a good thing, especially when the needle tip emits a creepy white light.

Rong Xiao stood up suddenly and moved to the other side cautiously.

The girl's movements were filled with hostility. Tian Yiwen paused, then laughed, "This isn't poison. It's just a potion that can temporarily restore some of Rong Xiao's strength. While it won't be as strong as before, it will at least make her feel less tired and uncomfortable."

"Who knows what's inside you." Yan Jue motioned Rong Xiao to come to him and was skeptical about the potion.

Tian Yiwen shrugged helplessly. "I know everyone has maintained a basic level of vigilance since the end of the world, but...do you have any other solutions for Rong Xiao's situation?"

Yan Jing stole a glance at Yan Jing, pursed his lips and said nothing.

"If I want to harm her, there's no need to resort to trickery like this. She's having trouble waking up now, right?"

Even though she couldn't see anything, Tian Yiwen still knew Rong Xiao's condition very well.

"I want to give it a try," Rong Xiao thought calmly for a moment, then stepped forward again, rolled up his sleeves and offered them to Tian Yiwen, "I trust my intuition, and I trust you."

Last night before going to bed, Rong Xiao wandered around the deserted city, and even in his dreams he felt a strange sense of fatigue and sleepiness.

The negative feelings that controlled her in reality seemed to affect her dreams as well.

Rong Xiao didn't want to continue like this.

Tian Yiwen said that the original plan to create her was called "The Light of the Apocalypse". If she continued to be like this, the Light of the Apocalypse would probably be completely extinguished.

"Rong Xiao, I will never harm you." Tian Yiwen calmly took out the needle and injected Rong Xiao, ignoring Yan Jue and Yan Jing who tried to stop her. "You are our last hope and the last light in the end times."

There was light in the pupils in front of him, a familiar light that made Rong Xiao's blood boil.

She had seen this light many times before.

When others are in trouble and despair, there is the same light in those eyes when she appears in front of them, shattering danger and bringing hope.

Rong Xiao understood that it was the light of hope, the hope brought by her.

The ice-cold liquid was not cold to Rong Xiao. She was getting an injection, and two pairs of eyes were watching her nervously, as if they were worried about any adverse reactions or sudden accidents.

Fortunately, after all the liquids were pushed out, Rong Xiao did not feel any discomfort.

She deliberately stayed quiet for more than ten seconds, and her eyes suddenly brightened. She excitedly pulled Yan Jue, who was nearby, and said, "I feel much better! Not as uncomfortable as before!"

Tian Yiwen smiled and packed up her things: "I said, I won't hurt you."

"Now that the injection has been given, we need to observe for a while, right? You can use this time to tell us the main purpose of calling us here today." Yan Jue seemed to be talking to Tian Yuwen, but his eyes were always focused on Rong Xiao, and he was reluctant to even look away for a moment.

Tian Yiwen saw all of this. She took a sip of her now slightly cold coffee and said, "The solution I can think of right now is... to take Rong Xiao back to the First Laboratory. Only Rong Xiao and the other androids can use the energy liquid. After the virus breaks out, some will run away, and some will turn into zombies. No one should touch that thing."

"What if there are other artificial humans..." Yan Jing questioned.

"Unless he knows his own identity and the purpose of the energy liquid, he won't go to the First Laboratory to look for it."

Tian Yiwen's words made him quiet instantly, and he couldn't find any reason to refute.

After thinking about it, Rong Xiao decided that he had to replenish the energy liquid no matter what, and going to the laboratory to find ready-made ones was the best solution at the moment.

"Okay! Let's go tomorrow!" Rong Xiao responded excitedly when he heard that he could recover his physical condition and temporarily slow down his deterioration.

Yan Jue smiled and agreed: "Okay, okay, let's go tomorrow."

As soon as he finished speaking, the smile on his face disappeared in an instant, and he looked at Tian Yiwen with a guarded look.

This woman who suddenly appeared has too many secrets. She knows a lot, but it is precisely because she knows a lot and they know nothing that this unequal gap makes people feel even more uneasy.

"I just looked at the records on the computer. Rong Xiao has awakened 6 superpowers, right?" Tian Yiwen held a freshly printed paper with detailed information about Rong Xiao.

Rong Xiao nodded and asked curiously, "I've noticed that every time I ask to 'play a game' or accept someone else's request to play a game, I'll see a strange box and a progress bar in the corner of my vision. When the progress bar is full, a new ability will appear in the box."

Tian Yiwen thought about it, and motioned Rong Xiao to lie down on the small bed next to her, and put a lot of testing items on her body.

"Rong Xiao, let's play a game," Tian Yiwen said with a smile, "Are you interested?"

At the mention of gaming, the screen presence immediately rises, a very clear uptick.

"Okay, okay." Even Rong Xiao's tone became excited.

Tian Yiwen laughed, took the thing off her body, and continued to write in the notebook: "The progress of the progress bar has nothing to do with the 'game', but with your heart rate."

"Ah?" Rong Xiao looked confused, but Yan Jue understood.

"When you think about games, your heart rate changes significantly, especially when you're playing with the intention of winning," Tian Yiwen explained patiently, knowing she didn't quite understand. "When you feel excited, nervous, stimulated, or excited, or when you experience some particularly noticeable emotional change, the progress bar you see will rise."

"When you encounter danger, your heart rate will definitely change significantly. We deliberately designed this mechanism to allow you to gradually awaken your unknown superpowers."

Yan Jing seemed to understand, but not quite: "Then why not let Rong Xiao awaken many superpowers from the beginning?"

"I think Yan Jue knows it very well," Tian Yiwen stared at Yan Jue. "Rong Xiao, who just woke up from her slumber, is completely blank. She doesn't understand anything and is full of aggression. If she had activated her combat state to the maximum from the beginning... well, this world would have been destroyed long ago."

Yan Jing suddenly felt a chill on his back.

"Then what is that information about the power upgrade that I saw?"
