Standing on the high platform, Dr. Zhao watched this exciting scene unfold before him, a gratified smile spreading across his face. He cleared his throat and announced loudly, "Ladies and gentlemen, I hereby declare that Ning Yu has successfully completed the 'Silent Control' challenge, becoming the first person in history to fully control his own superpower! His name will be forever etched in history!"
As soon as Dr. Zhao finished speaking, the cheers rose again, as if to lift the entire challenge arena off its feet. In the crowd, Brother Wu patted Ning Yu's shoulder vigorously, his eyes filled with excitement and pride. He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but found himself too excited to utter a single word.
Ning Yu's name, along with the challenge, seemed to take flight, quickly spreading throughout the entire camp and even further afield. People were talking about this young man who had created a miracle, about his heroic performance in the challenge, and about his strength and mystery.
In an instant, Ning Yu became a hero in everyone's hearts, an object of worship for countless superhumans. People were all looking forward to this young powerhouse leading them to a path to the future in this perilous post-apocalyptic world.
At this moment, Ning Yu stood amidst the crowd, his heart filled with pride. He knew that in this post-nuclear world, he possessed enough power to protect himself and those around him, and had taken another significant step towards his goal. He raised his head, his gaze resolute as he looked into the distance, where a vaster world awaited his conquest…
A fragrant breeze wafted by, and a beautiful figure appeared beside Ning Yu. A familiar voice rang in his ears, tinged with teasing and laughter: "Congratulations, great hero! How about treating me to a nice meal to celebrate?"
Ning Yu turned around at the sound, and saw Mu Xue with her arms crossed, looking at him with a half-smile, her eyes flashing with cunning. Today she was wearing a black outfit that accentuated her shapely figure, and her long black hair was tied up high, making her look even more dashing.
“Of course we should celebrate,” Ning Yu replied with a smile, glancing at the direction behind Mu Xue, and said meaningfully, “I’ve already thought of the place, but I’m afraid some people won’t dare to go.”
Mu Xue followed his gaze and saw a thin figure in a white coat hurrying past at the edge of the crowd. Who else could it be but Dr. Zhao? "What is there for him to be afraid of? He's just an old man doing research..." Mu Xue said nonchalantly, but her voice grew softer and softer, as if she realized she had said the wrong thing.
“An old man who does research?” Ning Yu raised an eyebrow and repeated meaningfully, “He’s no ordinary person. Don’t underestimate him.”
Ning Yu didn't say it explicitly, but he knew in his heart that Dr. Zhao was definitely not as simple as he appeared. Could a scientist who was so engrossed in supernatural research really be completely uninterested in power and status? He had been observing everything around him discreetly, and he had keenly caught the complex look that flashed across Dr. Zhao's eyes when he looked at him; it was definitely not just simple admiration and satisfaction.
"Alright, alright, if you don't want to go, then don't. Anyway, I don't want to deal with him. He looks like a tough guy." Seeing that Ning Yu didn't intend to explain, Mu Xue stopped asking and pulled his arm towards the edge of the crowd. "Let's go eat something delicious. I've been starving all day!"
Ning Yu smiled and let her lead him away, his face beaming with the joy of victory, but deep inside, a shadow of unease crept in. He basked in the admiring gazes of the crowd, but he also realized that his every move was being watched, and he was no longer as free as before.
"Ning Yu, I have something to tell you..." Just as Ning Yu stepped out of the crowd, a deep voice came from behind him. Ning Yu stopped and turned around to see Brother Wu. His expression was solemn, hesitant to speak, and his eyes revealed a hint of worry.
