Chapter 218 Can a person awaken two superpowers?
As Lin Muyan entered the mansion, she immediately felt several gazes fixed on her.
When everyone saw a young woman enter, and then saw Wei Tuling already standing up with a delighted expression, they knew that this person must be the mysterious boss.
At this moment, most people are disappointed.
"Mu Yan, you're here. Come and sit down. Let me introduce you to the team members."
Lin Muyan calmly nodded and sat down on the sofa, not getting angry at the questioning looks from these people.
It's understandable that they would have doubts. After all, forming a team in the apocalypse is not child's play. If it were her, she would definitely hope that the leader of them would be a capable and experienced person. Anyone would have doubts if they saw someone younger than themselves as the leader.
Fortunately, none of these people had particularly short tempers. After Lin Muyan took her seat, before Wei Tuling spoke, no one directly expressed their dissatisfaction.
"Mu Yan, let me introduce you. The man who opened the door for you is Cheng Yu, my junior. Like my cousin, he's also a semi-martial arts practitioner."
"This is..."
Wei Tuling introduced the team members present to Lin Muyan one by one, and even introduced their respective skills.
Several of them are particularly skilled in fighting; they are all trained martial arts practitioners who received specialized training in the past.
Besides those who are good at fighting, there are also people who are particularly good at socializing, surgeons, computer experts, and so on.
Of the twenty-odd people, five have already awakened their superpowers.
One earth-type awakener, one healer, two speed-type awakeners, and one who awakened the ability to purify water.
With the addition of Wei Turing, a lightning-type awakener, this team of less than thirty people is now not to be underestimated.
After learning about the abilities of the others, Lin Muyan's gaze fell on a girl named Xu Jing.
How did you discover that your special ability is to purify water?
This ability is quite useful in the current apocalyptic world.
The quality of water in the future will inevitably be affected by global mutations. If people drink polluted water for a long time, they will eventually die young and their physical condition will deteriorate.
It affects both lifespan and quality of life.
If the problems of water and air are not solved, in the future apocalypse, just surviving will be difficult enough.
Xu Jing's special ability can provide clean water to at least a small number of people.
In the future, such talents will definitely become the object of competition among major forces.
Upon hearing this, Xu Jing thought for a moment and said:
"I think it was a natural progression for me to discover and master my superpower. The ice water I had stored at home had gone bad, and even with a simple filter, it couldn't remove the dirt from the water. But that day, I just touched the water, and the water in the whole tank became crystal clear."
Lin Muyan nodded upon hearing this. It seems that some superpowers, once awakened, can be mastered without the awakener needing to do anything.
Some superpowers are more difficult to develop. For example, Wei Turing's lightning superpower requires strong electrical stimulation...
"So, how much water can you purify at a time now? How long does it take for the energy you consume to recover?"
Through the quantum computer, Lin Muyan could naturally see that Xu Jing was only at the initial level one.
Xu Jing: "Wei Tuling and I have already conducted experiments. Right now, I can only completely purify three cubic meters of water at a time, regardless of the water quality. It's always the same efficiency."
"It will take at least half a day for me to fully recover my strength before I can use this ability again, that's about it."
Lin Muyan nodded, then took out a water-type crystal core and a non-attribute crystal core and handed them to her.
"Try these two crystal cores and see which one you feel is more effective at absorbing."
Xu Jing tried it on the spot and soon exclaimed in surprise at the water-type crystal core:
"This blue one, what kind of crystal core is it? Are there different types of crystal cores?"
Lin Muyan understood immediately. Although Xu Jing didn't have water-based abilities, her abilities were related to water. She guessed that Xu Jing could also absorb water-based crystal cores, and that proved to be true.
After explaining the various crystal cores, Lin Muyan took out some attribute-less crystal cores and a few water-type crystal cores, saying:
“I don’t have any earth-type crystal cores right now. Healers and speed-type awakened ones can just absorb non-attribute crystal cores. You guys can take these and distribute them. We’ll have Wei Turing assign tasks later, and everyone can kill zombies and mutated beasts to obtain crystal cores.”
When the five Awakened Ones received the crystal cores from Lin Muyan and smiled with gratitude, they realized that, without realizing it, they seemed to have already accepted this leader.
The others were also almost caught off guard.
After a moment of silence, Cheng Yu finally tentatively asked a question that everyone was curious about.
"Captain Lin, would you mind telling me what special ability you have awakened?"
Everyone just witnessed Lin Muyan's dramatic transformation of the crystal core, so it's not hard to guess that she is also an Awakened One with a personal space.
Someone who can make Wei Tuling, a lightning-type ability user, willingly submit, must have some skills. It's just unknown how powerful those skills are.
Wei Tuling wanted to stop her, but that would be impolite. What if it made Lin Muyan unhappy?
But Lin Muyan smiled and said:
"That's right, I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Lin Muyan, and my awakened ability is..."
The next second, Lin Muyan stretched out both hands, palms facing upwards, and a ball of flame instantly condensed in one hand.
Just as everyone was surprised, another ball of water condensed in his other hand!
"hiss!"
"Huh? Wait a minute, I think my eyesight is getting a little blurry."
"One hand is fire, the other is water, dual attributes of fire and water? Is it possible for one person to awaken two superpowers?"
"Wow, no wonder Lao Wei follows her. Fire-type abilities are a given, that fire girl has fire-type abilities, and this kind of ability is very powerful in combat, and it's especially effective against zombies. Her water-type ability is also very powerful. Doesn't this directly solve the water problem?"
Even Wei Tuling was shocked. He knew Lin Muyan's identity as a fire woman and had always known that she had fire attributes.
But can anyone tell him when a water attribute was added?
Everyone's doubts are also his doubts.
Can one person awaken two superpowers at the same time? What are the odds of that?
He had always known that Lin Muyan was not simple and had secrets, but he never expected that she would also be so special in terms of superpowers.
It seems that he made the right move by following Lin Muyan.
He had been secretly thinking to himself that he was, after all, a lightning-type awakener, and lightning-type attacks were very powerful. He was, after all, a strong ally of Lin Muyan.
Now it seems that he was not an ally at all, but clearly someone who benefited from the situation.
Lin Muyan doesn't need any allies at all; she's enough on her own. Anyone else would just be a burden to her.
Teaming up with them is practically helping them out of poverty...
