This little system, although its role for that person is rather ambiguous, is reliable at other times.

Tong Su nodded in relief and calmly lay down in a huge scanning chamber, where she stayed for more than half an hour before it was over.

Ye Qingxi received the medical examination report and glanced at it.

Self-healing, X-ray vision, rated level, extremely weak.

She still remembered that when Ci Wuming and Ye Qingxi were fighting on the cruise ship, those people blurted out that Wuming was a "level" (a derogatory term for someone of high rank).

Wow, the difference is huge!

"Level?" Ye Qingxi was a little embarrassed. He looked at Tong Su and racked his brains to comfort her, "Although the level is not strong, both of these abilities are very useful. You are still very good."

Level 1 is a super strong person, Level 2 has good potential, and Level 3 is average. In that case...

Not only did Tong Su look at him coldly, but even the other researchers were in despair, whispering among themselves: "Is this comforting? Standard straight man's comfort!"

"He's lying through his teeth."

"It's not a big deal that her rank is low. This ranking is based on combat power, and these two abilities aren't really suitable for combat. But the fact that she has two of them shows that she has quite a bit of talent."

"Yes, yes, it's improper for young girls to be fighting like this. They look so well-behaved and sweet, it's much better this way."

Ye Qingxi knew that what she had just said was too awkward, so she touched her nose and tried to change the subject.

"Weren't you just wondering why we built the base here? As you know, mutants and ordinary people are from two different worlds. Everyone hides, afraid of being discovered. We chose a hospital because we felt that the more crowded a place is, the safer it would be."

They walked along a corridor toward the underground level that was being used as a cover for the hospital.

Tong Su frowned: "Why are you hiding it?"

She never understood why the mutants in this world would separate themselves from ordinary people.

"The power of mutants comes from meteorite radiation. There are certain genetic patterns, but it is mostly due to mutation. Even if both parents are ordinary people, their children may still be mutants. The more they hide it, the less ordinary people understand them, and the more hostile they become. Some families, upon suddenly discovering that their child has superpowers, will even be so frightened that they abandon them!"

Ye Qingxi sighed: "What can we do? In our department, many people are orphans we picked up like this. Some people even say that mutants are an evolution of genes, and for the progress of all mankind, mutants should be allowed to stand up and rule the country! Ordinary people are afraid of this, and they don't want to come into contact with mutants at all."

“They’re afraid because they have no way to contact them.” Tong Su suddenly turned around, her gaze intense as she frowned at him. “Ordinary people hate mutants because there are bad people among them. If we opened up the world of mutants and set laws to restrict them, they wouldn’t be able to do whatever they want. Maybe things would be better?”

Ye Qingxi smiled wryly: "There has always been this debate within the world of mutants. My mentor suggested continuing the seclusion. No one has reached a conclusion yet on how to minimize the impact on the world of ordinary people."

"Isolation may be possible for a while, but as you said, some people still want to rule the world. Can we remain closed off forever? There are conflicts among mutants, and even more conflicts between mutants and ordinary people. Rather than letting war break out in the future, it's better to proactively reveal ourselves now and thus bring about change."

A round of applause suddenly rang out from the front: "Well said!"
