The base residents, faced with a dazzling array of energy reagents, were at a loss as to which to choose.
Although General Lee has repeatedly emphasized that color does not represent anything.
But people will imagine things, like purple corresponding to lightning, green to wood, and blue to water, hoping to gain superpowers.
That's quite imaginative.
However, after drinking it, I found that besides feeling physically comfortable, I didn't experience anything else, which was somewhat disappointing.
But on the second and third days, her hair gradually turned black, her wrinkles disappeared, and her complexion improved; it was as if she was aging in reverse.
Li Zongmeng secretly wondered if any lucky individuals would be able to activate their special abilities after releasing so many energy reagents.
That's right. Apart from special energy reagents, ordinary reagents also have a certain chance of stimulating superpowers, but the chance is very low, negligible.
But he didn't want to make this public, so he had someone post a notice offering a large sum of money to recruit special talents.
Nothing else was written, but a smart person can tell what's going on at a glance.
On the north side of the base, a little girl who was always sweating was almost in tears, wondering how to tell her parents, when she saw this announcement.
She stared at it for a long time, then suddenly understood. Clutching her sweaty hands, she walked into the office.
In the southwest corner of the base, a young man whose body has been constantly on fire lately has almost burned his house down.
But he dared not say, for fear of being treated as a monster or being captured by the base for research.
But considering Li Zongmengguan's behavior, he felt it was unlikely. Yet, he still dared not take the risk.
Later, I found this job posting and was somewhat tempted, but I didn't dare to make any rash moves.
He noticed a young girl walking in with a troubled expression, and sensing something, he began to pay attention to her movements.
The imagined scenario of never returning never happened. The little girl was assigned to the guard team and became a member of the special operations group.
Although the young man was unaware of the details, he could tell from the girl's increasingly better complexion that she was being treated with courtesy.
Without further hesitation, I tidied myself up and walked into that special recruitment room.
Li Zongmengguan hadn't expected that even taking ordinary energy reagents would awaken two people. Not bad, better than he'd anticipated.
It's unclear whether there are any other figures in the capital who are hiding their strength.
However, even if you do have one, it doesn't really matter. Most people's awakened superpowers are quite useless and don't have much destructive power.
The energy reagent from Haishi was introduced here two months later.
Three days in advance, General Li announced it over the loudspeaker.
The residents are required to wear smart bracelets and arrive at the base square at 9:00 AM to verify their identity, and then take energy reagents on the spot.
That's right, energy reagents are not allowed to be taken back for consumption, to prevent any kind of private transaction, so the Imperial Capital has very strict controls on this.
This time, Li Sikai brought Xiong Jianwei and the others, and they went straight to Old Shen's house.
The group chatted until late, and Li Sikai got a little drunk.
With dazed eyes, he said to Shen Yanming, "Now it's good. I can go wherever I want. Being locked up in the capital for more than ten years, only I know what it was like. I was sad, but I didn't dare to tell anyone. Old Shen, thank you."
Shen Yanming smiled and nodded: "It will be better from now on."
"Yes, it will be better from now on." After saying that, Li Sikai fell asleep.
But the next day, he still got up at six o'clock and ran two or three laps around the base.
When I returned, Bi Qiaoan had already prepared breakfast. It was vegetable porridge cooked with spiritual spring water, served with a salted duck egg that was dripping with oil—it was absolutely delicious.
Li Sikai ate his fill, patted his belly, and gave Bi Qiaoan a thumbs up.
Shen Yanming handed over a box of salted duck eggs: "Here, keep them and eat them slowly."
Li Sikai knew they didn't need it, so he accepted it with a smile.
"By the way, could you prepare some of your water too?" It's really good for relieving fatigue.
Shen Yanming nodded: "It will take some time. We'll talk about it when you leave."
"Okay, thanks."
"No need to be so polite."
The group chatted until 8:30, then Li Sikai led his men to the base square.
A row of tables was set up, and in front of them stood a dense crowd of people, all beaming with joy.
When Li Sikai arrived, they were all stunned. It took them a long time to realize that this was Captain Xiao Kai, who often appeared on TV!
"Hello, Captain Li!" Once the leader took the lead, the rest followed suit.
Li Sikai smiled and took out a megaphone to greet everyone: "The wait may be a bit long. If you have brought a chair, please sit down first, and we'll take our time. If you didn't bring one, sit on the floor or squeeze in with others. Don't just stand there."
Otherwise, your legs will ache.
Everyone smiled and nodded, taking out cushions or stools from their storage containers, and the atmosphere in the base square instantly changed.
Li Sikai, Xiong Jianwei, and Yuan Zhaorong took out the instruments and reagents at the front, and everyone's eyes lit up.
Shen Yanming and Qi Xili came over to help verify identities, while the others who had activated their superpowers stayed on site to maintain order.
Liang Huaxin was extremely frustrated because he had drunk a special energy reagent but had not awakened any superpowers.
But he also knew that he was much luckier than others.
Just like them, who can only drink ordinary drinks, while I drink special ones.
If you fail to activate your special abilities, you can only blame yourself for not being able to do it; you can't blame anyone else.
Thinking about it this way, he didn't feel so bad anymore. He smiled again and reminded the people in front of him to line up properly.
As each person approached, Li Sikai would ask, "Do you want to choose for yourself, or should we help you choose?"
What's the difference?
"You choose yourself, which means picking what you like or what you feel a connection with. If we help you choose, it requires a drop of blood, which goes through a machine, and then an energy reagent that is compatible with your body's genes will appear."
Upon hearing this, the man's eyes lit up: "Can it activate superpowers?"
Li Sikai shook his head: "Sorry!"
At first glance, it seemed hopeless, but it wasn't absolutely impossible either. The other person just didn't understand, and their eyes dimmed.
Li Sikai didn't say much, and asked again, "Your choice, or...?"
"I'll choose myself!" the young man said, pointing to the purple one. "That's it!"
Li Sikai nodded, and after verifying the person's identity information, handed him the purple energy reagent: "Drink it!"
The other person glanced at the strangely colored energy reagent, pursed their lips, and then drank it down with a death-defying air.
After finishing his drink, he smacked his lips and said, "It doesn't really taste like anything!"
Li Sikai laughed, put the test tube into the storage container, and said with a smile, "Otherwise, what should it taste like? How is it? What does it feel like?"
"Well..." The young man was about to speak when he noticed that the people behind him and around him were looking at him curiously.
He scratched his head, felt it carefully, and shook his head, saying, "I don't feel anything, just a warm feeling in my stomach and lower abdomen, it's very comfortable."
"Oh, that's good. The energy reagent will continue to modify your body over the next two days."
