Chapter 482: The God of Fire Appears (Please give me double the monthly ticket~)
Hiss, hiss, hiss!
Under the gaze of the crowd, except for Brother Huo, the other three hibernation capsules opened their hatches almost at the same time. Waves of surging dark energy seemed to be released uncontrollably, causing the lighting systems of the hibernation capsules to begin to flicker abnormally.
The dense fog broke through, and several people around immediately retreated and stood next to Lin Xian. Lin Xian's power armor radar swept over, and saw an invisible wind wave blowing away. Ryunosuke was wearing a black mask and slowly floating in the air. He was breathing heavily at this time. Without wearing power armor, a pair of silver-blue eyes were rarely revealed.
At this moment, Ryunosuke's whole body seemed to be flashing with microwave light, like a shell defense shield. At the same time, the dust and various tiny parts in the hibernation cabin seemed to float up uncontrollably, as if living things were controlled by Ryunosuke.
"I was saying this guy's telekinesis is a little different from Kiki's. Now that I feel it from the perspective of dark energy fluctuations, it's even more obvious."
The person who spoke was Qian Dele, who had just emerged from the hibernation capsule. He was wearing a flowered shirt and beach shorts, barefoot and steaming from his body. He rubbed his head and squinted his eyes at Lin Xian. "How much time has passed? Is it 10 hours too?"
"Almost 13 hours." Lin Xian checked the time and then asked, "What did you mean by feeling it from the perspective of dark energy fluctuations?"
"It's like being able to sense the flow of dark energy in the air, like being able to grasp the existence of air." Shuqin said at Lin Xian's side. She looked at Ryunosuke floating in the distance and said, "The things he controls are different from Kiki's. If Kiki's control is invisible, Ryunosuke is more like generating some invisible dark energy threads or tentacles to grab the controllable objects."
"That's what happened." Monica's eyes narrowed slightly, and she looked at KIKI.
"Looking at it this way, yours is telekinesis, and he..."
"It's more like some kind of witchcraft that can control the actions of objects."
KIKI frowned slightly when he heard this, crossed his chest and said in confusion: "So, I don't hear much difference."
“It’s definitely different.”
At this time, the floating Ryunosuke slowly fell from the air. His aura began to become stable, and the small parts floating around him also fell to the ground. He flew over and looked at Lin Xian with gratitude.
"Lin, thank you, I have made great progress."
Lin Xian nodded.
Ryunosuke immediately came in front of Kiki and said, "I master the manipulation of inorganic objects. In some basic applications, I can do things similar to your telekinesis, such as grabbing, moving, and releasing shock waves. However, it is more complicated for me to use because I need to sense, bestow, and then give orders to the objects I have been given. These inorganic objects will change according to my wishes."
"But if I want to unleash my power to its full potential, I can't use it the same way you do. This lattice evolution has given me a profound understanding of this."
"Oh?" Kiki looked at him with interest: "Have you gained a deeper understanding of your abilities?"
"That's right."
Ryunosuke's eyes flashed with purple electric light. In an instant, the small parts that fell to the ground behind him, along with the hot mist rising in the air, all condensed together and quickly combined into a humanoid puppet as tall as Ryunosuke beside him. What was extremely strange was that all the movements of this humanoid puppet were the same as Ryunosuke's. When he turned around, the puppet turned around as well.
"My manipulation power is alive, carrying my conscious thoughts. After sensing dark energy, I discovered that this power can be used for short-term control, rather than instantaneous control. This means that my combat style and attacks are no longer limited to a single shockwave, but can continuously diffuse and control more matter to use as my 'weapons' in battle. This will allow me to be more at ease."
"Yo, this sounds like mind control, or objects being controlled by summoned creatures?" A yellow flash appeared, and Qian Dele, who was far away, came to Ryunosuke in an instant, like a flash, so fast that no one's power armor radar system could capture it, and at this moment, a large number of electromagnetic pulses were stirred up, causing the power armor electronic systems of Lin Xian and others to flicker.
"Hey, be careful."
"What's going on?"
"Sorry, sorry!" Qian Dele scratched his head and waved his hands, saying, "I haven't mastered the control yet. I almost hurt my own people."
"I mean, the direction of Ryunosuke's ability development is really interesting. I've seen a lot of movies. Your ability might be able to create some stone men or giant birds made of metal. Anyway, they are all inorganic combinations without life force, and use them for combat. Do you think it's possible?"
When KIKI heard this, she smiled and said, "Oh, I see. I was wondering why it looked so familiar."
Ryunosuke thought for a moment and said, "It's very similar to what I envisioned. This kind of development can provide large-scale assistance on the battlefield."
"You know what? This ability is quite terrifying when facing a monster wave." Lin Xian analyzed seriously at this time: "You can even forge large weapons on the battlefield, which are not inferior to mechas. After all, you can repair them at any time without worrying about damage. As long as your dark energy is not exhausted, the inorganic life forms you control can be said to be endless and immortal."
hiss~
Hearing Lin Xian's crazy extension, everyone around him widened their eyes and gasped.
Sasha murmured in shock, "Wow, that sounds amazing."
"It seems to be even more powerful than Sister KIKI's~" She turned her head to look at KIKI, but KIKI pinched her nose and pushed her away: "Go away, my telekinesis has unlimited potential, just wait and see~"
"Where's Sister Ning?" Xiaoqing in the crowd spoke softly when she saw everyone chatting animatedly.
Qian Dele turned around and looked at Ning Jing's hibernation chamber: "Why hasn't she come out yet? I can even sense her dark energy fluctuations."
"Could something have happened?" Chen Sixuan frowned.
"I'm fine!"
At this time, Ning Jing's voice was heard in everyone's communicator, but her tone sounded a little wrong.
"Captain Lin, Captain Chen, there's nothing wrong with me, except..."
Lin Xian couldn't help but frown when he heard Ning Jing's words. He felt that Ning Jing's voice seemed to have changed. Others also noticed this. Before Ning Jing finished speaking, Qian Dele had already flashed to the side of Ning Jing's hibernation cabin. Who knew that the next second, after seeing the situation in the hibernation cabin, he showed an extremely exaggerated expression of shock, and said with wide eyes.
"Hey, what's going on with you..."
After saying that, he raised his head and looked towards Lin Xian, motioning everyone to come over and take a look.
Lin Xian and everyone else hurried over at this time, but when everyone looked into the hibernation capsule, they were all shocked without exception.
Ning Jing was curled up in the hibernation chamber at this time, frowning and looking at Lin Xian: "Captain Lin, has my evolution failed?"
At this moment, Ning Jing's body size in the hibernation chamber seemed to have doubled. Just by looking at it, she was at least 2 meters tall and stronger than a building. She could only curl up with her feet tucked in this large hibernation chamber. Her original clothes were torn to pieces, and she looked quite embarrassed. However, what was even more bizarre was that Ning Jing's face looked more than ten years younger at this moment. Her skin was smooth, and her healthy wheat-colored skin had a youthful vitality.
All these signs made her look like a completely different person, and it was for this reason that she had not come out of the hibernation capsule for a long time.
“You…”
Lin Xian's face darkened when he saw this scene. He immediately looked at Ding Junyi and asked, "Director Ding?"
Ding Junyi, holding the Soul-Dangling Value detector, calmly checked the vital signs on the hibernation capsule and said, "No abnormalities are showing. The lattice evolution device has completely absorbed the blood essence. Her Soul-Dangling Value has peaked at 16,800. For a genetically evolved being, this is a terrifying number. However, I currently have no explanation for this change in her size."
"Her vitality and mental strength are normal, and she's very excited." Shiori whispered in the crowd, "I don't feel anything unusual."
Chen Sixuan said at this time: "Strange, Xiaoqing and I have been watching her before, and there was no such obvious change in her body at that time. How could she..."
"Yes." Xiaoqing also nodded: "Her skin and face are becoming younger. Monica had such changes before, so we think it's normal."
"That would be interesting."
At this time, Monica walked up to Ning Jing and asked, "Are you feeling unwell somewhere?"
Ning Jing's eyes flickered, and she said with a complicated expression, "Aside from feeling like I'm lying in a crib, everything else is fine. To be more precise, my strength, body, and mental strength are all excellent. My strength has definitely improved a lot."
"That……"
Monica's eyes moved over her, and then she crossed her arms and said, "It means you've evolved successfully. As for the changes in your body, I can only say that being younger and prettier is a good thing."
"But I..." Ning Jing glanced at everyone and felt a little panicked for a moment: "Is this a side effect?"
Lin Xian looked at her and said, "I've known about this before. Some physical changes will occur." He looked towards the building and thought.
"It's unclear whether the changes you and the building have experienced are a mutation in evolution or a normal phenomenon combined with your own abilities..."
"This shouldn't be considered normal," Ning Jing said at this time: "Shuqin is a genetically evolved person like me, but she looks normal."
Lin Xian nodded and could only say comfortingly
"Why don't you come out and take a look? Maybe it won't have much of an impact. As long as there's no abnormal proliferation, it's just a matter of standing at a higher perspective... Or maybe this change is something you can control, but you just haven't fully adapted to it yet."
"You're right. I'm still a little uncomfortable now." Qian Dele also nodded.
When Ning Jing heard Lin Xian's words, her eyes flashed. She pondered for a moment and then nodded, and began to get up from the hibernation capsule. As she moved, the hibernation capsule began to creak. As everyone stepped back, Ning Jing finally turned over and stood up from the hibernation capsule.
At this moment, everyone's gaze also raised dramatically. As Ning Jing stood up, everyone's pupils shrank even more. Looking at Ning Jing, who was nearly 2.5 meters tall at this time, they felt an indescribable weirdness.
"It seems to be higher than I expected." Lin Xian murmured.
At this moment, even if Ning Jing was barefoot, she was still half a meter taller than the tallest building among the team members. Looking down from above, she looked like a small giant. The most terrifying thing was that a powerful dark energy wave was surging all over her body. Combined with her extremely powerful evolutionary attributes, Lin Xian could even imagine the horrific scene of her blowing up the strange body with one punch.
Xiaoqing and Abai beside them were even more shocked.
"Sister Jing..."
Ning Jing looked down at her teammates with a complicated expression and couldn't help but take a step back. After all, the feeling of a group of people looking up at her from below was somewhat uncomfortable, not to mention that her clothes were torn. Although Ning Jing had a calm and unpretentious personality, she still had to feel embarrassed.
"If I can control it, then I'm not a genetically evolved person, but some kind of superpower." Ning Jing sighed at this time: "There's nothing unusual at the moment, I'm just not used to it, and it may not be very convenient. For example, there are no clothes that fit me."
"Don't worry about that."
Lin Xian then took out a set of nano lining suits. This kind of equipment can be achieved by simply combining materials and programming. Lin Xian also added a dark energy isopotential device and a micro electrostatic force field protector to it, which greatly improved the protection and allowed the team members to have an additional "soft protection" while wearing power armor.
At present, for Ning Jing, only this "dress" can cover her two-meter-five body so that she doesn't look ragged.
Ning Jing took it with gratitude, and then quickly covered her body with the nano lining suit. In an instant, a tall female giant appeared in front of everyone. She looked down and felt much calmer after putting on the armor. She said to Lin Xian
"Much better. I'll get used to it. You're right. Maybe I can control this. If not..."
Ning Jing looked at her hands with a complicated look. Originally, her youthful face should have made her happy, but now she looked like she was in her late teens or early twenties with a body like a giantess. Any woman would feel complicated, but at this moment, she could only sigh and say
"At least the combat power has been improved. This size might be able to fight against larger strange entities."
"I think it's quite good." Qian Dele sat in a hibernation capsule, legs crossed, looking up at Ning Jing, and said with a smile: "Look, what a perfect body, a perfect combination of female beauty and strength. From the perspective of appreciation, this is also a kind of perfect life, right?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Lu Chang, Luo Yangdalou and several other men nodded silently in agreement.
"If I can become so strong, some sacrifices don't matter." Xiaoqing said softly at this time.
"Then are you willing to become a female giant?" Lin Xian asked her.
Hearing Lin Xian's words, Xiaoqing opened her mouth and quickly looked over.
At this time, KIKI looked towards the farthest hibernation pod, crossed his arms and said, "Okay, everyone is fine, except for this one troublesome guy."
Lin Xian said, "All four hibernation pods clearly sounded the alarm just now, so why hasn't Brother Huo's hibernation pod opened yet?"
"What else could it be?"
Kiki chuckled, rolled her eyes and said, "Do you still need to guess? That guy must be waiting for the final appearance. He might even fall asleep waiting."
"Hehe~" Sasha couldn't help but laugh, and whispered to Lin Xian: "I just heard his hatch open, but our attention was all on Ryunosuke, and then he closed it again."
Lin Xian: ...
Chen Sixuan held her forehead with her hand, her eyes turning white.
Although it was really speechless, the steaming heat wave still made everyone extremely curious. As the person with the highest spiritual value in the team, Lin Xian was also looking forward to Brother Huo's evolution.
As if sensing everyone's expectations, or perhaps because no one here was talking, there was finally movement in Brother Huo's hibernation capsule.
“Sizzle—boom!!!”
A loud bang, not of metal opening, but of space being forcibly ripped apart, suddenly erupted from the dormant pod at the very edge! The sturdy alloy hatch was instantly melted and vaporized by the fiery red-gold flames gushing from within! The blinding red light, like a volcanic eruption, dyed the entire cabin into a burning bloody purgatory.
The lighting system let out its final whine and went out completely, but the cabin was as bright as day - the light came from the core of the gushing flames.
A figure, stepping on the molten wreckage of the cabin, slowly rose up like a god walking out of the core of the sun.
Lu Xingchen!
The figure slowly floated in the sky, shining brightly, with countless flames flowing in the air. Then, in the red flames, a figure like a god stepped out into the air. Deep in his pupils, two balls of blazing white flames burned fiercely. Wherever his eyes looked, the air was ignited, making a crackling sound.
"Hu~" Lu Xingchen exhaled a breath of foul air with a profound look on his face, and his whole body was filled with flames. At this moment, he didn't see anyone in his eyes, but stood in the void.
"Of the three thousand great ways, only fire reigns supreme. The crystal lattice forges the Nascent Soul, and the burning sky proves my true self!"
A low and satisfied voice sounded, and after he finished speaking, he turned around and stood with his hands behind his back, slowly raising his right hand, his movements carrying the calmness of someone in control of the universe.
“Buzz!”
Above his palm, space twisted slightly, and a nine-petaled red lotus composed of pure red-gold flames blossomed out of thin air! Precisely controlled by Lu Xingchen, it emitted a terrifyingly high temperature.
"This is the 'Burning World Red Lotus'. A little true fire can burn away all evil." Lu Xingchen's lips curled up with a look of contempt. His eyes swept over his stunned teammates and finally landed on Lin Xian. His voice was like the clanging of metal:
"Captain, do you think the cultivation of this 'Fire Star Lord' is worthy of your notice?" He slightly clenched his five fingers together, and the world-burning red lotus suddenly shrank and turned into an exquisite red-gold lotus seed, which hovered at his fingertips. The heat it emitted did not decrease at all, but became even more restrained and terrifying.
Chi, who knew that at this moment, the high temperature in the cabin suddenly activated the automatic fire sprinkler system, the alarm sounded, and in an instant a large amount of water curtain and sprayed refrigerated nitrogen sprayed out from the top, directly pouring down on Lu Xingchen's head, extinguishing the flames on his body, and the steam and cold air expanded and spread wantonly.
Inside the hibernation chamber, the temperature immediately dropped and it became quiet.
