Chapter 483 The Second Batch of Evolution
"Aiya!" Sasha fanned herself exaggeratedly with her hands, her face misty from the hot and cold mist. She yelled angrily, "God of a Lu, you're so pretentious... you're going to dry up the entire Pacific Ocean!"
"That's really exaggerated. He even burned down a hibernation pod. If it weren't for the quick response of the firefighting system, the entire hibernation pod section would have been destroyed."
KIKI put her hands on her hips with a dissatisfied look on her face and shouted, "Hey, we still need to cultivate the crystal lattice, don't burn it down here."
After he finished speaking, he raised his hand and waved it. The shock wave swept through, making the view in the hall clear.
At this time, everyone saw that Lu Xingchen in the distance was still standing with his hands behind his back and facing everyone, but his clothes were already burnt and soaked, and he looked like a burnt chicken.
"Wait, wait!"
Seeing the mist being blown away, Lu Xingchen suddenly nervously lit the fire again. At this time, Lin Xian raised his hand and shot the nano lining suit at Lu Xingchen. The silver nanoparticles were released quickly, and in an instant they wrapped him up along with the burnt fragments of his clothes.
Lin Xian had already seen that this guy came out at the end not just to show off. It seemed that his clothes had been burned to pieces due to his excitement during the evolution. Now that he was in the public eye, and probably witnessed Ning Jing's sudden change in size, he made a posture of a fire god to cover up the embarrassing situation that there were only a few charred fragments left on his body that couldn't even cover his buttocks.
Lin Xian looked at the guy who had his back to everyone even though the fire in him was extinguished, and thought that this must be the reason. They were all men, and he would be too embarrassed to turn around if it were him. It is more decent to be seen by the buttocks than by other testicles, especially for someone who cares so much about face like Lu Xingchen.
Fortunately, he was covered in steam, and the shredded remains of his clothes contrasted with his charred body, so no one could tell.
After seeing that he was wrapped in the nano-liner, Lu Xingchen, who was facing away from everyone, breathed a sigh of relief. He immediately regained his composure, turned around and looked at Lin Xian with a smile, and said calmly:
"The material of this clothing is extraordinary. Brother Lin must have put a lot of effort into it. He wanted to restrain the violent firepower that I would have after I came out of seclusion. Brother Lin is very thoughtful."
Lin Xian looked at him with a speechless smile: "You're welcome."
Ding Junyi, standing nearby, picked up the Soul Dangling Value meter, raised her glasses, and said, "26,500. His peak Dark Energy has already reached the Transcendent level. According to the new standards of the Order of the Phoenix, this number would rank among the highest among all psychics worldwide."
"26500!!!" Luo Yang exclaimed immediately after hearing this: "Brother Huo is awesome!"
Xiaoqing in the crowd also looked at Lu Xingchen in surprise at this time. Although it was expected that the peak internal ability might increase by 100%, it was really too incredible that Brother Huo directly increased from 12,500 to 26,500.
"Not bad, I'm only 18,000, and you're 7,500 higher than Ryunosuke's 19,000. It seems the magnitude of this lattice evolution is enough to significantly increase your combat power!"
Qian Dele held his chin with his hand and said calmly: "According to the speed of lattice energy increase, it shouldn't take long to break through 30,000."
Upon hearing this, Lu Xingchen walked over to Ding Junyi with a delighted look on his face and said, "Director Ding, are you serious? I only had 12,500 before..."
Although it was just a question, it was obvious that Lu Xingchen was very excited at the moment. A surge in combat power was what he was most looking forward to, not to mention that Ding Junyi had added an extra comment like "among the best in the world". Given Lu Xingchen's personality, he must have been very happy at this moment.
Ding Junyi held up the Soul-Dangling Value Detector and showed it to him: "It's not completely standard yet, there should be a lot of room for improvement. Your lattice amplification rate should be over 100%."
"Very good, very good." Lu Xingchen let out a long breath, suppressing his excitement and straightening his chest. He looked out with a disdainful look, as if looking through the train's armor at the apocalyptic world outside, shrouded in crimson and infested with monsters.
"The road ahead is long, and filled with demons and monsters. Well, let me use my newly acquired 'Samadhi True Fire' to burn a smooth path to heaven for you fellow Taoists!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the temperature in the entire cabin soared again, and even the air seemed to be boiling.
"Enough, enough, let's check if there is anything else abnormal on your body." Chen Sixuan interrupted him immediately when she saw that he was about to 'take off' again, and asked with concern.
Lu Xingchen was interrupted by Chen Sixuan. He quickly felt it carefully, then shook himself up and said excitedly, "Everything is fine. Please rest assured."
Lin Xian nodded. "It seems that with Level 4 Blood Essence, everyone's evolution rate is around 100%, which is a good thing. The problem now is whether the changes to the building and Ning Jing's body are good or bad. We'll have to wait for the Phoenix Society and I to find out."
"I feel like I should be fine." Dasha patted his chest and said, "Except for a little redness... I feel much better in every way."
Dalou was also very excited. His combat power had lagged far behind the team before. Facing the super-large strange body, his blood and energy abilities were hardly useful. Although Lin Xian made a black dragon armor for him, it still conflicted with his own abilities and prevented him from fully exerting his combat power. It only improved his mobility and protection in the ocean. But now he clearly felt that he already had the power to break through the air with his physical body. Even if he adapted a little, he might be able to find the physical strength to kill from a distance like Vanessa.
After talking about the building, Ning Jing also folded her arms across her chest, looked at her body and sighed: "Come to think of it, I should be about the same. There is nothing too uncomfortable. It's just that sleeping may be a little troublesome."
"I think so." KIKI curled her lips and looked at the tall Ning Jing: "Looks like I have to ask Lin Xian to make a new bed for you."
"Just make do with it for now."
Lin Xian said to her seriously, "At this point, let alone us, even the Order of the Phoenix, the Falcon Sea Group, and the Holy City Organization are still in the early stages of exploring the changes after crystallization. Human evolution happens in a short period of time, and there are definitely many unknowns that we still need to unravel. So, for now, as long as there is no danger to life and the crystallization evolves smoothly, I think other changes can be temporarily regarded as the development of superpowers. Weird Limbs can hide and control their abilities, so I think there must be a way to deal with your situation."
Ning Jing nodded in agreement. "That makes sense, Captain Lin, don't worry. I... will adapt."
"It seems your previous concerns were overly cautious." After listening to Lin Xian's words, Monica crossed her arms and said calmly, "Currently, including me, there are seven of us, and all of us have exceeded 15,000 Soul Drifting Points. Although we haven't experienced actual combat yet, judging by the performance of the core members of the Falcon Sea Group, dealing with a few special-level monsters should not be a problem for us."
"I think it's fine too." Shu Qin nodded, clenching her fists. "This isn't just a boost in strength. Most importantly, after being able to assimilate the power of dark energy, the strange entity's impact on our dark invasion will be minimal. We can also use this power to counterattack. In a sense, we and the strange entity belong to the same type of destructive force."
"That's true." Qian Dele shrugged.
Ning Jing, who was standing high up in the crowd, said in a teasing tone, "Yeah, it's about the same size as the strange entity."
"Alright, alright." Kiki stepped forward and said, "Everyone is doing well. It's our turn now."
Lin Xian looked at KIKI and nodded, "Okay, without further ado, KIKI, Teacher Chen, Luo Yang, Xiao Qing, A Bai, and Shizhi, prepare the next batch."
"What about you?" Monica said at this time, her eyes falling on him.
"I'll wait until you're all done before coming back." Lin Xian said frankly, "I'll feel more at ease this way."
"You're worrying too much."
Qian Dele said to him at this time: "So many people have completed it. Now that we are guarding it, there is nothing to worry about."
Lin Xian shook his head. "That's just one thing. You all know that my abilities are a little different. Besides, we're leaving tomorrow, so I have to hurry up and make some weapon preparations tonight. Once we're safely on the road tomorrow, I can find time later."
"I say, don't take all the pressure on yourself."
Qian Dele jumped down from the hibernation capsule, looked at Lin Xian with a smile, and said half-jokingly: "No matter what your abilities are, no matter how the Adventists deal with you, we are all a team, and we will shoulder the burden together."
"That's right, Captain Lin."
Everyone stood up.
Lin Xian nodded: "Okay, I know."
"I, then I'll wait for the next batch." At this time, Shizhi stood up and timidly pointed at Ning Jing and the others and said, "They have just completed their evolution, and their aura is still very unstable. I can stay and keep an eye on the situation first. This will be safer."
"Okay." Lin Xian nodded in agreement, and immediately asked Qian Dele, Ning Jing, Huo Ge and the others to rest and adjust first.
"Next, Kiki, you guys get ready." He checked the time. "The evolution should be almost complete around dawn tomorrow. Let's get started now."
After that, everyone immediately began to prepare, and the first group of people went back to the cabin to rest. Lin Xian saw Ding Junyi passing by and asked hurriedly
"Director Ding, didn't you say you also wanted to do lattice cultivation?"
Ding Junyi paused. "I'll join you in the final batch. Now is the best time to observe the lattice evolution data. Everyone's changes are very important. I plan to test the regional black chrysanthemum and other disaster plants. Perhaps we can find something different."
Hearing Ding Junyi's words, Lin Xian nodded: "Okay."
Soon, Lin Xian installed the equipment for the second group of team members who were preparing to undergo lattice evolution. With his previous experience, he distributed the nano-lining suits to everyone in advance so that they could wear them after the lattice evolution was completed.
"Lin Xian."
Chen Sixuan was a little nervous. She sat in the hibernation capsule, lowering her head to adjust her breathing. Lin Xian came over and adjusted the device for her. He said, "Pay attention to the issues Shuqin and the others mentioned just now. The main thing is to maintain a clear mind and don't worry about anything else."
"I know, I just..."
Chen Sixuan said that she had not deliberately improved her abilities along the way. She had made progress almost unconsciously. At the same time, she had not paid attention to those changes. She focused on solving the team's logistics and strengthening her own state of mind. This was the first time she pursued the evolution of her abilities.
Lin Xian saw through her thoughts, which might be influenced by the changes in the building and Ning Jing.
Although the changes in the building and Ning Jing were not unacceptable, this unknown physical change still made everyone a little worried. What if more exaggerated changes occurred?
"Don't worry, Sister Chen, you won't become ugly, nor will you turn red all over." KIKI lay on his side in the hibernation capsule, propped up his head and looked over. "Even if you look like Sister Jing, your body will be a dozen years younger. I don't think it's that scary."
Chen Sixuan closed her eyes and curled her lips, "What about you? You're a dozen years younger, aren't you afraid of turning into a baby?"
Hearing this, Xiaoqing on the opposite side was also stunned, and then cast a complicated look at Lin Xian. She and Abai were both under 20 years old, so how much younger could they be?
Luo Yang was lying in the hibernation capsule, clasping his hands together in prayer, muttering something. Ah Bai, who was beside him, asked nervously,
"Brother Luo Yang, what are you talking about?"
Luo Yang opened one eye and said nervously, "I'm praying that my eyes don't mutate. After all, my superpower relies on my eyes. Brother Dalou's blood power has turned him blood red. If my implosion eye turns into some invincible giant eyeball, it will be troublesome. Oh, and you also have the superpower of eyes like me!!"
Ah Bai couldn't help but shudder when he heard it: "It shouldn't be...
"Hey, if that's the case, it's actually pretty cool." Qian Dele, who was talking without hesitation, teased everyone at this time: "Maybe if it grows six eyes and becomes a six-eyed flying fish, it will be much more powerful."
Hearing this, the group of teammates watching couldn't help laughing, and for a moment they didn't know whether to comfort them or laugh.
"Actually, there's no need to worry too much about this," Lin Xian said with a blush. "Whether it's the Falcon Sea Group or the information I've read about the Order of the Phoenix, there haven't been any cases of eye mutations. Most... ahem, they still look like humans."
Everyone: ...
"Okay, I'm ready." Chen Sixuan took a deep breath, lay down and closed the hibernation chamber.
"I'm ready too, come on." Kiki, with a fearless attitude, closed her eyes and lay back, saying loudly: "I accept whatever I become!"
Xiaoqing, Luo Yang and Abai also closed the hibernation capsule one after another, and then Lin Xian activated the device. The dark energy fluctuations exploded instantly, and muffled groans from several people were heard in the hall one after another. Then, everyone fell into a deep sleep.
After everyone's condition stabilized, everyone else left the hibernation chamber and began to rest, except for these main combat forces.
Lin Xian checked the time and went directly to the Sky Train's arsenal ship to prepare for weapons development. Now that he was connected to Viola's computing port, he could access the monitoring here in real time, so he could be the first to know what was happening.
So Lin is now preparing to start weapons manufacturing, and by the way, he will try to put the materials and things that need to be prepared into the manufacturing star dome of 'Planet Titan' to test it out.
