People with special abilities are guests of honor in every suspended tower, polluters are disabled people that even the inhabitants of the wasteland are unwilling to accept, and the very existence of those out of control is a disaster.
Night Owl is a person with special abilities and a frequent guest at Suspended Tower 132.
His alienated direction is speed. The extreme speed brings extreme lethality, and he is also an expert in assassination.
"It's someone from above again... What's going on?"
At this moment, Night Owl was leaning on a recliner, tapping his legs leisurely, but his expression when he looked at the man in black was not very happy.
There were many maids serving him, but if you look closely, they were all bionic people.
When the natural disaster was about to strike, the Federation gathered the strength of all mankind to build hundreds of suspended towers, allowing some humans to avoid the disaster and preserve the achievements of civilization.
These bionic maids are the product of the technology left over from previous civilizations combined with current genetic technology.
"I want you to kill someone."
The man in black handed over a photo. In the photo was a thin little girl standing on the snow with a calm expression on her face.
—It’s Luo Xue.
Chapter 38: Almost Nothing is Me
"A yellow-haired girl? Is this the target?"
Night Owl took the photo and looked at the man in black with a look as if to say, "Are you kidding me?"
"Um."
The man in black nodded.
"No, what does the boss mean? Do you think I am only fit to kill children? I won't answer!"
Night Owl was furious. Level 6 ability users have already gone beyond the category of coolies and exist as the backbone of most suspended towers.
“This is the reward.”
The man in black took out another bottle of potion and placed it on the table.
"I already told you I won't answer..."
Night Owl waved his hand impatiently, but when he accidentally saw the potion from the corner of his eye, his eyes suddenly widened.
"Wait, a gene optimizer? Level seven?"
Genetic technology is the basis for the suspended tower to stand tall in the post-disaster world, and gene optimizer is the most widely used technology of genetic technology.
Whether it is aimed at strengthening capabilities, alleviating the degradation symptoms of polluters, or stabilizing the power of those who are out of control, it has a very significant effect.
Like the alienation levels, gene optimizers are also divided into nine levels, and the higher the level, the better the effect.
With Night Owl's current level of alienation, if he wants to take the next step forward, he can only rely on higher-level genetic optimizers.
"My Lord has said that you are the most ideal person to carry out this mission," the man in black still maintained a respectful attitude, "but you are not the only feasible person to carry out this mission."
Hearing this, Ye Xiao did not take it immediately. Although he needed this gene optimizer very much, he was willing to pay such a generous reward to kill someone...
"Is she the offspring of some important person?"
Ye Xiao looked at the photo carefully and found it hard to imagine that the offspring of any important person would be dressed in such rags.
"no."
The man in black shook his head.
"... is he a test subject of some experiment?"
Genetic technology requires a large number of human bodies for live experiments in order to be advanced, and there is indeed a lot of work to do in dealing with experimental waste bodies.
“Neither is it.”
The man in black paused and continued,
"She is just a deserter, a deserter that can be found everywhere... But she seems to have awakened her abilities recently, probably to the third level of power."
"Level 3..."
For Night Owl, a level 3 ability user is no different from an ordinary person, and all he needs to do is kill them with one sword.
"So... why kill her?"
Night Owl asked in a deep voice. As an assassin, caution comes first.
He didn't want to be inexplicably involved in the struggle between bigwigs, and then die in an unknown corner without any explanation.
"My Lord did not say, but..."
The man in black hesitated for a while, but finally spoke out.
"It should be related to the other little girl she was with. I'm sorry I can't tell you the details."
Night Owl looked at him deeply and said nothing more.
He put away the photos and picked up the genetic optimizer - this meant that he had accepted the task.
"There is one more thing," the man in black said, "The master specifically instructed that the target must die accidentally, and there must be no signs of assassination."
The night owl took a glance,
"knew."
As soon as he finished speaking, his figure disappeared into the shadows.
... ...
Night falls.
But to be honest, there is not much difference between the night and the day in the Endless Wasteland, especially now that the severe cold disaster has just passed.
At most it is warmer during the day and much colder at night.
After surviving the natural disaster, Luo Xue and Ling Ling moved back into the same house, and they have been living together for the past few years.
There wasn't much else in the camp, but there were quite a few houses left, after all, there were hundreds of people there before.
The houses also served as backup fuel, but building them was too difficult for two young children.
So in general, don’t use it if you can avoid it.
After dinner, Luo Xue and Ling Ling sat cross-legged on the bed together.
Ling Ling was a little restless, twisting her body constantly, obviously a hyperactive child who refused to settle down.
"Sister Xueer, when will it start?"
“No hurry.”
Luo Xue touched her chin and enveloped Ling Ling with the spiritual perception of the innate realm.
She wanted to see if there were any differences between humans in the Doomsday World and the Immortal Martial World to avoid any accidents.
After observing carefully for a while, both the soul and the body seem to be similar.
That should be... okay, right
Luo Xue couldn't use her own body for the experiment because her situation was rather special.
"Let's give it a try first. If something goes wrong, we can save it in time."
Luo Xue calmed herself down and began to think about which set of skills to pass on to Ling Ling.
Zi Yang Jue
Luo Xue herself doesn't even like this half-wasted modified product...
The Secret of Xuanyin Transforming into Phoenix
This thing is not something that ordinary people can practice. Even if you remove the essence and blood of the True Phoenix, you must possess a Xuanyin body.
Moreover, the Xuanyin body is only a prerequisite, which does not mean that it can be cultivated for sure.
Otherwise, Taoist Zi Yang wouldn't have to make any changes.
There are only a few kinds of martial arts skills that Luo Xue has mastered. Apart from these, the only thing left is the breathing technique.
As the worst basic technique in the world of cultivation, the Breathing Technique can never allow one to enter the Soul Condensation Realm, and it is a technique that no one would choose if there were any other.
But fortunately, the tolerance of spiritual energy in the Breathing Technique is very high, so it is much easier to switch to other techniques afterwards, and it does not require wasting too much cultivation.
Generally speaking, re-cultivating a technique requires giving up all of your cultivation, with the breathing technique being an exception.
Therefore, in this case, the Breathing Technique is still better than the Zi Yang Technique.
Wait until Luo Xue can find a better martial art and then give it to Ling Ling to practice.
"Hold your breath and close your eyes."
Luo Xue looked solemn and said in a deep voice.
Lingling quickly closed her eyes. Although she was naughty, when she saw Sister Xueer's expression, she was of course very clear about the importance of the matter.
So, she will be obedient.
Luo Xue came closer, gently placed her forehead against Ling Ling's brow, and whispered,
"Don't move."
The warm breath fanned Lingling's little face, making her cheeks a little flushed, but soon she had no time to care about it.
Luo Xue directly passed the breathing technique to Ling Ling, just like letting Ling Ling read the preaching jade slips, and it was even clearer and easier to understand than the jade slips.
At the same time, Luo Xue also separated a small portion of her spiritual power and ran it through Ling Ling's body, planning the operation of the small circulation for her in advance.
But he didn't dare stay any longer, because Luo Xue's spiritual power was poisonous.
Although Luo Xue can control the poison and prevent it from leaking out, she still cannot stay for long just in case.
After a while, Ling Ling entered the state and her restless body gradually calmed down.
His eyes were closed and his expression was peaceful.
The surrounding spiritual energy was gathered together and slowly flowed into Ling Ling's body like a clear stream.
With every breath, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth cleansed Ling Ling's mortal body.
Luo Xue opened her eyes and sat back down.
"I entered into meditation so quickly..."
Luo Xue looked at Ling Ling, who was so well-behaved, and blinked her eyes with some envy.
"When Xiaoyao was helping me so much, I couldn't practice at all... Am I the only one who is almost at nothing?"
Chapter 39: Who the hell is this tough guy
Ling Ling did have some qualifications for cultivation, but not too many.
Not to mention that Luo Xue, who had improved her cultivation aptitude, was not as good as Su Yiyao, who was already a peerless genius. She was not even as good as the other three little girls in the Fengyin Mountain conspiracy.
... But it's still better than Luo Xue, who is almost inactive.
The spiritual power of the Breathing Technique is gentle and neutral, and does not require any qualifications, so anyone can practice it.
It's not difficult to get started if you have someone to guide you.
The difficult part is the road ahead. If there is no superior skill to replace it, you will be trapped in the innate realm for the rest of your life.
Examples like Luo Xue who couldn't succeed even with guidance are extremely rare. This can even be called a talent in another sense.
Of course, the current Luo Xue can be considered to have it "barely".
After the spiritual power of the breathing technique circulated in Lingling's body for several small cycles, her face became visibly rosy, and she finally showed some of the cuteness that a child should have.
Due to the scarcity of resources in the wilderness, Lingling has been malnourished since childhood and now looks like a skinny little monkey.
After making sure that Ling Ling was in good condition, Luo Xue stood up carefully and walked outside the house to protect Ling Ling.
The so-called Dharma protector is actually just to prevent external chaos from disturbing cultivation.
People like Ling Ling who are practicing martial arts for the first time need to concentrate especially.
Your meditation may be interrupted accidentally, and it may be more difficult to enter a meditative state on your own afterwards.
The temperature outside at night dropped to minus twenty degrees Celsius, but for Luo Xue, who had already entered the innate realm, it would be no problem for her to go out in a vest at this temperature.
