Somewhere in the temporary camp, He Yue was sitting on the ground in low spirits. Several of his companions were comforting him, saying that the problem with his supernatural power might be just because he was too tired today. He should rest for a day and everything will be fine tomorrow.
He Yue smiled weakly and said, "It's impossible for him to get better. How many people with declining superpowers have you seen recover?"
Someone suddenly stammered, "I heard that the Dongyang base seems to have discovered a way to restore weakened superpowers."
"What did you say?" He Yue's eyes flashed. The man quickly said, "I just heard that. We can't get any accurate information here, and that method seems to be related to zombies."
Everyone else fell silent. It was absolutely unacceptable if it had anything to do with zombies. Only He Yue's eyes flickered.
Outside the camp, somewhere on a small hill.
Lin Zhongrong took Lin Cheng's knife in his hand, tested its hardness, and then raised his hand and chopped a large stone into two halves with almost no effort.
He was surprised for a moment, then suddenly felt delighted. "What a nice knife, Xiaoman! You said you made this out of jade?"
Lin Man nodded: "The details are quite complicated, but it is related to my special ability anyway."
Both of them knew that she had "dual abilities". Abilities are inherently private things, and even if they were friends, they couldn't explain it too clearly, so neither of them asked any further questions.
Lin Zhongrong simply confirmed, "After using the supernatural power, will it really increase its power?"
"That's right. Let me try it and you'll know." Lin Man took the knife, injected spiritual energy into it, and the red line in the blade seemed to be activated, emitting red light. She held the knife and chopped it flat on a small mound of earth. The red light flickered, and the small mound of earth was chopped flat. A piece of earth flew up and fell to the ground like a pot cover.
Lin Zhongrong and Lin Cheng were both silent.
After a moment, Lin Zhongrong pressed his heart and said calmly that it was indeed unusual. He looked at Lin Cheng and said, "You try it."
Lin Cheng said seriously, "Sir, I haven't mastered this ability yet."
Lin Zhongrong: “…”
It was a novelty to hear Lin Cheng say so confidently that he couldn't do it. But when he tried it himself, it didn't work either.
He was a little embarrassed: "Xiao Man, you are not the only one who can use this knife with supernatural powers, right?"
"Of course not. Theoretically, anyone with superpowers can do it. Superpowers themselves are a kind of energy." Lin Man said. This was also what Guan Guan said.
Lin Zhongrong nodded slightly. "The Dongyang Base can only restore weakened superpowers to 60-70%, and we don't know how much risk there is. If a weapon were to appear now that could increase the power of superpowers several times, those who support the Dongyang Base would have to think twice. So the biggest question now is, Xiaoman, can you make more such weapons?"
He then quickly added, "Dad isn't asking you to be a weapons manufacturer in the future. It's just that if you can make more and use them to scare people, our current predicament will basically be solved."
Lin Man smiled and said, "Of course I know the priorities. Don't worry, Dad. I can make a lot of weapons like this."
Even if this incident had not happened, she planned to do more and at least equip everyone around her with a bayonet or dagger.
"So how long did it take you to make this knife?"
"A little over two months, and during that time, I made not only this knife, but also my own weapons, and one for you, Dad."
Lin Zhongrong was excited: "There's one for me, take it out and show it to Dad."
Lin Cheng suddenly felt something was wrong, so he took a step back.
Then Lin Zhongrong saw that the little hammer was silent.
Lin Man said, "Dad, didn't you say you wanted someone to massage your back? With this, you can massage your back yourself and even tickle yourself. Do you like it, Dad?"
Lin Zhongrong's mouth twitched, revealing a smile uglier than crying: "I like it, ah, I like it."
If he had known that his daughter asked him if he needed a weapon for this reason, he would have answered properly. What kind of stupid weapon is this? Can he really use it?
Lin Man said with a smile, "I think Dad is already very powerful. It seems that any other weapons are redundant. So let's get the one you need most. And Dad, don't underestimate this hammer. It's also very powerful. Nothing can withstand two hits from it."
"Oh." Lin Zhongrong looked expressionless as he wanted to find something to try. His eyes moved around and locked onto Lin Cheng. His gaze slowly moved from him to his knife, and then from the knife back to him. His eyes were very dangerous. Lin Cheng said nothing and tried to reduce his presence as much as possible. He knew this would happen.
Lin Man helped choose the stone that was split in half: "Dad, try this."
Lin Zhongrong was a little skeptical. He wondered if the delicate hammer in his hand would shatter into pieces when it struck the stone. But his daughter clearly trusted the hammer, and he couldn't help but give her face. He walked over, picked up the hammer, and struck it hard. The hammer didn't break at all, but cracks appeared on the stone, and then it snapped into several pieces.
Lin Zhongrong was very clear that he did not use much strength at all. This was different from chopping a stone with a knife. Chopping a stone with a knife easily could be said to be due to the sharpness of the knife, but a hammer requires a lot of strength. It was a bit incredible that he could easily smash a stone without using much strength.
So this thing can really be used to massage your back? It'll paralyze you, right?
Lin Man smiled and said, "It's very powerful, right? Give it to me first." She took the hammer in her hand and poured spiritual energy into it. The hammer emitted a yellow glow. She hit the other half of the stone that had been split off before lightly. The stone immediately exploded and turned into countless tiny pieces of gravel and dust that shot out in all directions.
Lin Zhongrong was startled and quickly pulled Lin Man away: "Be careful not to hurt yourself."
"It's okay, what do you think, Dad?"
When Lin Zhongrong picked up the hammer again, his eyes changed. It was really hard to understand how such a small thing could exert such great power. However, one thing was certain, whether it was a hammer or a knife, it could indeed multiply the power of a person's supernatural powers.
He suddenly felt that holding a hammer that could crush everything wasn't too weird, except for one thing: "Xiao Man, why don't you make a more majestic hammer? It would look better on Dad."
Lin Man was amused by his conflicted expression. Finally, he had enough of his mischief and took something out of his bag. He said slowly, "Actually, I was worried that Dad wouldn't like this. After thinking it over, I decided to make something else."
It was a tactical straight-handled knife, the handle wrapped in cloth to increase grip friction. The blade was about the length of an adult man's palm, with smooth edges and a slender, sharp tip. There was a blood groove on the back of the blade, giving it a ferocious look.
This dagger is also translucent, with light red mixed in the transparency. It is made of the same red jade as Lin Cheng's knife, but that knife inexplicably condensed two red lines, while this dagger did not.
Lin Man couldn't quite tell the difference, but Guan Guan said that Lin Cheng's long sword could be considered half a magic weapon embryo, while the others could not be considered. The red line was indeed difficult to form.
Lin Zhongrong immediately fell in love with this ferocious knife, which looked ferocious from the outside, and kept saying, "This one is good, this one is good... Uh, Dad said this one is very good, and of course this hammer is also good."
Lin Man watched him demonstrate a few times with a smile, looking very comfortable with it, and asked Lin Cheng to come over and practice with him.
Lin Cheng had no choice but to go over. He was unarmed, so Lin Zhongrong pulled out a decorative dagger from his waist and threw it to him: "We don't use superpowers."
Lin Cheng caught the dagger, his body sank slightly, his eyes became focused, and his whole aura changed completely.
Their movements were completely practical, without a trace of fancy, yet still dazzled Lin. She realized then that what she had learned from Lin Cheng was only the basics. However, before she could watch them for a few rounds, she heard a snap and the dagger in Lin Cheng's hand broke.
The two of them looked at the new-generation sharp weapon, which was said to be forged with the highest technology and the strongest materials at the Tuanyuan Base, but was now broken into two pieces. They were silent for two seconds, and then Lin Zhongrong laughed out loud: "What a good sword! Even without super powers, it is still a superb sword! So what would it look like if it used super powers? Xiaoman, come here, use this to show Daddy."
He was also addicted.
Lin Man was a little hesitant: "How about I tell you about its characteristics first?"
"No need, this is a divine sword, can you still hurt dad?"
Lin Man narrowed his eyes and thought, "Haha, this is too contemptuous!"
She grabbed the tactical knife and attacked Lin Zhongrong.
Lin Zhongrong's eyes lit up, and he said to Lin Cheng beside him, "You taught me well."
Lin Cheng smiled slightly, said nothing, and looked at Lin Man.
Lin Man was still like a little tiger, agile and powerful, his moves revealing a stubborn and fierce strength, and it was obvious that he truly regarded Lin Zhongrong as his opponent. However, Lin Zhongrong still handled it very easily, and even gave Lin Man some advice from time to time.
"The knife should come out from this side."
"You took too big a step, and your center of gravity is off."
"You must keep your lower body steady. If you are knocked down by your enemy, there will be no chance of getting up again."
Lin Man was restricted everywhere, and finally found an opportunity. He poured his spiritual power into the knife. With a swish sound, the father and daughter retreated at the same time. There was a big cut on Lin Zhongrong's ribs. If he had not retreated quickly, he would have been injured.
He looked surprised and doubtful, as the knife was clearly some distance away from his body.
Lin swung the knife proudly.
Lin Zhongrong reacted: "Okay, you show weakness to me first, and then use your ultimate move when I let my guard down."
Lin Man smiled and said, "It's a surprise."
Lin Zhongrong said, "Come again!"
This time, Lin Man used his spiritual power throughout the whole process. The tactical knife turned red, and the invisible sharp light flickered, sometimes long and sometimes short, which made it impossible to guard against. Fortunately, there was a big difference in the strength of the two. If they were of the same level, Lin Zhongrong's skin and flesh would have been incomplete.
But even so, his clothes were cut into many different sizes.
Lin Zhongrong was in a mess, but he laughed heartily. His daughter was really beyond his expectations.
