Chapter 482 The Last Game

When Xia Yan rushed to the only restaurant open to guests on the cruise ship, the whole room was filled with dissatisfaction with the cheap dinner.

She found a random table and sat down. When she wanted to order food, she was told that the only food available tonight was sweet potato soup.

"Can."

It's free food, so why bother with a bicycle? As long as it can fill your stomach, it's fine. At worst, you can have a snack later.

Halfway through the meal, the waiter went from table to table to inform them that the auction would be held early.

"Customers who have finished their meals, please go to the exhibition hall immediately and wait. President Bin is already there waiting for everyone."

The sound of chairs sliding back and forth could be heard in the restaurant. Guests walked out in twos and threes. The steaming hot sweet potato soup on the table was collected by the waiter and poured back into the iron bucket and sealed.

Xia Yan took the last sip, wiped the corner of his mouth, stood up and left.

The exhibition hall was brightly lit. The second floor was closed and had no VIP seats. The lobby was only filled with armchairs and a red carpet was laid symbolically below.

The staff at the door handed her a number plate and led her to the corresponding location.

More and more people filled the exhibition hall, and there were dense crowds of heads in front, behind, left and right. It was impossible to find Chu Wanfu and Jing Yimai. In addition, after the auctioneer appeared, the brightest lights all went out with a click.

After a few official remarks, the auctioneer brought out the first exhibit, an umbrella that provided all-round protection against acid rain and hail. It was sold at a low price and was used to warm up the venue.

The whole audience rushed to bid, and the atmosphere was instantly heated up. Then the auctioneer struck while the iron was hot and took out the next exhibit.

These include daily necessities modified from the laboratory, special armored vehicles, high-precision special-energy guns, and even rare crystal cores, crop cooperation coupons and other items.

It was not until the second half, when everyone was a little tired, that Jing Wenbin came on stage, holding a silver-white medical code box in his right hand, with a thin chain on the handle tied to his wrist.

He placed his briefcase on the C booth, signaled with his eyes, and a large screen dropped behind him. All the lights in the venue went out, and a faint light came out from the projector, projecting a video.

“This is a great initiative.”

Voices came from all directions, and a researcher in a white coat appeared on the screen. His face could not be seen clearly, but his tone was very excited.

He carefully held a bottle of golden liquid and showed it in front of the camera, his eyes full of fanaticism.

"The latest discovery is that as long as you absorb a sufficient amount of superpower blood and there is no rejection, there is an extremely high 80% chance of activating a second superpower! The second superpower can also be upgraded, and both superpowers can exist in the body at the same time!"

There was an uproar at the scene!

It can stimulate a second superpower! What an incredible research result!

In the video, the man in the white coat put down the liquid, then picked up a pile of information and pictures, introducing the different changes that occur in the bodies of people with special abilities who take different concentrations of liquid.

"According to experimental research, when the concentration is greater than 5%, fourth-level psychics have the best absorption effect. When the concentration is greater than 10%, psychics of level 5 and above will have a 40% chance of successfully activating a second ability!"

In the picture, the low-level subjects who used the liquid had hideous faces and died tragically, while the worst-case scenario for the high-level psychics was carbonization of their legs, while the lightest case was just redness and allergies all over the body after peeling of the skin.

Next was another video. The mutant with red body was lying on the hospital bed. At the request of the background sound, he first waved out a stream of clear water, then he stretched out his left hand, pursed his index finger and thumb, and as if he was not used to it, a small flame emerged from the tip of his index finger.

"Did you see that, everyone in front of the camera?! He gained a second superpower! This proves that our experiment was on the right track! All the sacrifices were worth it!"

The image shook violently, and all the researchers cheered in unison.

The sound came from all directions, and there was a weird feeling at the auction site. Of course, this was just Xia Yan's feeling.

At this moment, the scene changed, and a person holding a camera and recording appeared in front of the camera. He was wrapped tightly and only a pair of hazel eyes could be seen. He tried his best to suppress his excitement.

"The concentration of the drug we gave him was only 11%. Our plan going forward is to use this low concentration to help him through the adaptation period and thoroughly solidify his foundation! Observe the duration of this second ability. This is the end of today's record. Time—"

The video screen was cut, the curtain was retracted, and all sounds disappeared without a trace.

The spotlights suddenly cast beams of light, all gathered in the center of the booth, illuminating Jing Wenbin and the box he held tightly in his hands at all times.

He untied the bracelet, laid the safe flat, and after entering the password, the lid of the safe opened automatically, emitting a light blue light.

Everyone knows exactly what's inside.

The people in the front row couldn't help but stand up and look inside. The customers behind them started cursing and stood up as well. Gradually, everyone stood up.

Jing Wenbin glanced at everyone one by one, the corners of his mouth curled up, and he took out the sealed tube inside very lightly and displayed it in front of him.

It is a particularly beautiful golden blood potion.

“This is what the video just introduced!”

"I've bought specially made cigarettes, and I heard they have this stuff in them! It's really good for superpowers, and it's addictive."

"I heard that the darker the color, the stronger the effect. Has anyone bought this and knows? Come on, tell me."

Amid the noisy crowd, Xia Yan suddenly remembered the light pink injection that Jing Wenbin had sent her before. She didn't use it and put it in the system grid.

It looks like a blood solution that has been diluted countless times.

"Everyone, be quiet and please return to your seats." Jing Wenbin held the microphone and amplified his voice several times.

He said: "It seems that everyone has guessed that cigarettes are also new products developed by our laboratory, and the purpose is to give everyone a chance to experience it."

"Actually, this is just a blood potion, no, it should be called a medicine. The video doesn't explain it in detail, so let me add a few words. When the concentration is greater than 2%, it can enhance antiviral properties by 5%. If taken long-term, it may provide complete immunity!"

There was warm applause at the scene.

Everyone who can sit here has shopped on the black market before, and they bought cigarettes, a precious item that is in short supply, as soon as they could and tried it.

To put it more clearly, the ultimate goal of them sitting here is the blood medicine!

If I could truly acquire a second superpower, wouldn't I be able to walk freely in the apocalypse?! Everyone only has one superpower, right? Those who have been transformed are different. They can unleash a superpower with their left hand, and when their opponent lets their guard down, they can unleash another with their right hand!

Dominating the world will no longer be a dream.

"I need to tell you something." Jing Wenbin cleared his throat and put on a regretful expression. "The potion auctioned tonight will be the last one in the world."

He found Jing Yimai in the crowd and said sarcastically:

"So, the second highlight of this auction is the experimental subject who will provide the blood agent—Chen Juqing. This great man is about to sacrifice his life for the experimental research. As for how much blood can be drawn in the end, I can't guarantee it. It all depends on your luck.

Bidders, please make your choice boldly."
