Professionals of the Starry Skies - Chapter 14

[14. Chapter 14 Superpowers (Please collect)]

“Thanks for purchasing products from Goofy Toys, please give us a thumbs up!”

Fang Xing opened the express box and took out the drones and surveillance equipment inside.

A mellow and sweet voice sounded, and then fell silent.

At Fang Xing’s request, these drones are all shaped like various simulated birds, and the monitoring equipment is also equipped with camouflage functions.

“My wallet…”

He silently mourned for his wallet for three seconds, then immediately prepared himself and began to travel!
A flash of silver light.

Another world.

Temporary camp.

At this time, the camp had been concealed and covered with a layer of camouflage. Looking from the sky, it was no different from the surrounding jungle.

The reason for this was that Fang Xing was frightened by a flying monster before, and he was busy upgrading the camouflage of the camp.

“After all, it’s just a temporary camp, it’s not safe enough…”

“It’s time to consider setting up a permanent camp. You can choose a cave in the rock wall or a hole in the ground… the deeper the better.”

For Fang Xing, there was no such thing as being unable to leave the house.

Therefore, the deeper the cave, the more three seconds you can buy to escape, and the safer it will be!

“Wait! Doesn’t this mean… I’m going to become a mole?”

“No, hamsters seem cuter…”

Fang Xing complained and looked at the surveillance screen.

“Um?”

After taking a few glances, his eyes suddenly lit up.

Based on the route of the previous four-member group, he ordered the drone to conduct a strong reconnaissance in the direction they came from, which was the east, and indeed there was some gain.

“After one hundred miles to the east, there are traces of a human settlement!”

Fang Xing looked at a photo, on which the outline of a field ridge appeared.

Around the ridges of the fields, there are houses built of wood and thatch, and it seems that someone is farming in the fields.

“farmland?”

“It looks like these monitors will come in handy.”

“These farmers, even warriors, are all in their seventies and eighties. They may be deaf and blind because of insufficient Qi and blood… They won’t be able to find the surveillance right away. We can send out simulated bird-shaped drones to spread surveillance disguised as stones, beetles, etc…”

According to Fang Xing’s estimation, perhaps only the leader of the four-man team he had met before, the warrior at the Jade Realm, had a certain chance of discovering the surveillance equipment.

After all, most warriors who have reached the Jade Realm have an innate spiritual perception and are good at detecting all kinds of hostile gazes.

Although monitoring equipment is more like inanimate objects, there is still a certain probability of being discovered.

“If it’s a Blue Star Federation warrior, the chances of finding it are even higher…”

‘The indigenous warriors here probably don’t understand technology, and they don’t have any interference or detection equipment, so the probability of discovery is low… Let’s do it!’

Fang Xing set up the program and commanded the simulated birds to take off one by one.

If you look closely, you will find that these simulated birds are holding small things such as stones and beetles in their claws.

These simulated birds will travel hundreds of miles to the farmland and then drop pebbles, beetles and other monitors.

Then… quietly collect information and data…

…

Ten days later.

Yucai High School.

Fang Xing stood silently, his consciousness focused on the attribute panel:
[First Level: Flesh and Skin (Skin Refining: 99/100)]

[Twelve Military Boxing Styles: 9/100 (Proficient)]

[Big Dragon Posture: 29/100 (Proficient)]

“Just a little bit more, and the skin refining will be complete!”

Looking at the martial arts realm, Fang Xing couldn’t help but feel very satisfied: “It’s just that the Great Dragon Pillar has not yet entered the next level, which is the third stage mentioned by Teacher Xia Long. It is likely that it can only achieve copper skin… Fortunately, the skin and flesh are at the same level. After refining the flesh, if the Great Dragon Pillar reaches the third stage, it will also silently refine the membrane and turn the copper skin into jade skin.”

At this moment, he glanced and saw a pair of eyes that showed undisguised hatred.

The bloodshot eyes came from a tall white young man.

“Cole…”

Fang Xing smiled: “Why, do you still want to spar with me?”

“No, let’s wait until the final exam.”

Cole looked away and answered politely.

This kind of forbearance made Fang Xing look up to him and he became slightly alert.

“Ah Xing, you have to be careful. It is said that this Cole has some money at home. After losing to you last time, he hired a special personal trainer and spent a lot of money on blood-related medicines…”

Liu Wei came to Fang Xing’s side and reminded him in a low voice.

When it comes to practicing martial arts, you have to take one step at a time. It’s impossible to have a mental breakthrough or an instant increase in supernatural powers today.

Even if there are famous teachers to teach and sufficient resources, it will take some time to realize it!
Fang Xing can even feel that Cole’s strength is in a period of rapid growth.

When the final exam comes, it may be a surprise!
“Don’t worry, in the face of absolute strength, any conspiracy or trick is ineffective.”

Fang Xing answered confidently.

He has an entire other world as a resource base, and a cultivation environment like a secret universe. He will become stronger faster than Cole!
After all, Cole’s family background is just like that, maybe even worse than Gu Yun’s!

If the other party really waits until the final exam to attack, Fang Xing doesn’t mind letting him feel what despair is!
“Ah Xing, you’ve changed a lot.”

Liu Wei could not help but remain silent.

“People change.”

Fang Xing replied.

“Yeah… Everyone will change, and I hope I can become stronger… I don’t have the resources, and my talent is not as good as Axing’s. Now I can only pray that one day I will suddenly wake up and become a superpower.”

Liu Wei said as if he was joking.

“Superpower? This evolutionary path is not very good…”

Fang Xing shook his head.

The so-called “superpowers” can also be said to be “mutants”, and their origins are somewhat strange.

Although most scientific research shows that the abilities of “superpowers” are varied and most of them come from gene mutations, which is a very random process.

But it is undeniable that the emergence of superpowers did not occur after humans entered the cosmic age, but after the “Day of Disaster”!
Although genes are prone to mutation, it is reasonable for humans to start their own evolution after coming into contact with the universe. However, according to the deduction of the Blue Star Federation, this slow evolution of genes should take tens of thousands of years.

After the Great Tribulation, this “process” seemed to be advanced a thousand times by some existence.

Some sects also claim that people with superpowers are the favorites of extraterritorial gods and are “new humans”!
Because of this, finding the extraterritorial evil god who is suspected of having “superpowers” is one of the key strategies of the Blue Star Federation today.

“Since the origins of people with special abilities are unclear…if they suddenly awaken their special abilities, it may not be a good thing.”

Fang Xing continued.

“I think superpowers have nothing to do with the extraterritorial evil gods. They are just the result of normal gene mutations, and the probability is too small. I’m just saying it… Besides, wasn’t the top scorer in the college entrance examination on our Eagle Star last year a superpower? He was not subject to any restrictions or discrimination…”

Liu Wei showed disapproval on his face, but he felt mixed emotions in his heart.

He thought of a certain cultist in black who had suddenly come to his door before. The cultist wanted to recruit him into the sect, and the condition he offered was that he could awaken a flesh and blood power in him!

Whether it’s ‘Steel Body’ or ‘Super Speed Regeneration’, even the lowest ‘Strength Doubler’, it has huge benefits for warriors!
Once you get it, it’s not impossible to make rapid progress in martial arts training!

After all, even a low-level ability like “strength multiplication” would be considered “natural power” in ancient times, equivalent to a gifted martial arts genius!
He was indeed hesitant…

After all, compared to the naturally awakening supernatural powers, this kind of actively induced awakening is 100% related to the evil gods from outside the domain.

Once involved, you will fall into the abyss!
‘But…if I can’t awaken my superpowers, how can I surpass Ah Xing?’

“If I can’t even surpass Ah Xing, how can I pass the college entrance examination in the future? How can I escape from the battlefield of flesh and blood?”

“How… can I make Lian Yi look at me?”

Liu Wei secretly clenched his fists.

“Why did you suddenly mention this? Could it be that… you have awakened?”

Fang Xing suddenly looked at Liu Wei with some suspicion.

“It would be nice if I could wake up…”

Liu Wei responded calmly.

He is still in the swing period and has not received any “gift”, so he is quite open about it.

Even if you go to the clinic for a genetic test, they will definitely not detect anything.

“That’s right… Although awakening superpowers on your own is dangerous, for people like us, if we want to succeed, we have to give it a try…”

“Even if you are a superpower, you are better than cannon fodder.”

“What’s more, maybe the emergence of people with special abilities is a natural law, and the Federation is just overthinking everything.”

Fang Xing felt that this classmate might have really awakened some special powers, so he changed the subject with a hint of comfort.

It was this kind of comfort that hurt Liu Wei’s self-esteem.

“Yeah…it would be nice if there was one.”

Liu Wei murmured.

He was a little hesitant at first, but he saw that his classmates were making rapid progress.

Especially since Fang Xing, who had the same background as him, surpassed him, he finally made up his mind!

‘Even if I fall into the abyss, I will see the light for a moment!’
