Chapter 1722: Slightly disappointed, training base (1 more)

When it comes to superpowers, it’s not enough to just look at the effects of their use.

Emma always thought that her ability was to control fire, but in fact it was temperature control.

The instructions produced by the system are still the most reliable.

Beidou "Mr. Wilson" has a cool personality in Lorna's eyes, and it is not appropriate for him to take out coins or playing cards to bet with Marcos.

So beating him up is the simplest and most effective method.

Besides, he didn’t slap Marcos in the face!

Thinking about it this way, Luke felt that he was still a very gentle, easy-going and magnanimous person.

Selina asked from the side: "Is his ability to turn into a big light bulb?"

Luke thought about it and shook his head: "Just think of him as a microwave oven."

Selina: "What furnace?"

She seemed to have never heard of it.

Luke: "Similar to a microwave oven, but it's an appliance that uses light waves to heat it."

Selina understood: "So, his ability is not just to glow, but to grill?"

Luke: "… His ability is to absorb and manipulate photons. Brightness and heat are just one of his characteristics."

Selina pouted: "But now you seem very weak?"

"That's right." Luke agreed naturally.

Compared with Lorna and Carol, Marcos' ability is definitely the type that will be developed in the later stages.

Carol's self-healing is highly applicable in the early stages, but in the later stages, her self-protection is excessive and her damage is insufficient.

Luna's magnetic field control has never been weak.

In the early stage, you can use small and sharp iron products to easily kill and hinder the opponent, but in the later stage, a personal electromagnetic cannon is just a basic operation.

If you are smart and love to learn, this ability is almost unsolvable.

Marcos' ability now is just a flash bomb, or a low-power human soldering iron, and the actual effect is extremely low.

But in the later stages of development, human laser cannons are not impossible to consider.

But this is just a paper effect.

Many super powers are terrifying in the later stages, and the real key lies in how to reach the later stages.

Most people with super powers simply do not have the conditions to study well, or they lack talent and have poor academic performance, which limits their ability to develop super powers.

Most people with super powers rely on metaphysics and luck to advance.

Those who want to capture them must first make sure that these people are controllable before they study ways to enhance their abilities.

Who hasn't wanted to create a super powerful enemy for himself

Luke's daily regrets occurred as usual, and his mood did not fluctuate at all - Marcos's abilities really could not be learned.

But knowing dynamic light waves is actually nothing special, and he is not a fan of Ultraman Tiga.

He felt a little regretful, and Selina also expressed some regret: "It seems that we won't be able to find new teammates."

Luke chuckled: "Even if Lorna and her husband dare to come, I wouldn't dare to use them. They are too young and lack stability and experience. Maybe we can count on them after ten or eight years."

For example, they broke up or something like that! Someone silently added: After all, the mental age of a single person who has been heartbroken has always grown faster than their appearance and hairline.

The two people and the dog set out again, still leisurely.

In addition to daydreaming on a daily basis, Luke also studies and tries to cook some South American dishes he has just learned when he has nothing to do.

Most local delicacies still need to be slightly modified to suit your taste.

Selena doesn’t have high requirements for food. She will enjoy it as long as it’s “good”, but she won’t refuse if it tastes better.

Passing through northern Chile, the two men basically did not go ashore.

The north of Chile has a tropical desert climate and is dominated by mining cities.

Many places in Texas are also semi-desert, and desolate and majestic scenery can be seen everywhere, which is similar to the charm of the scenery here.

Luke and Selina's main purpose this time is traveling, with scoring points as a supplement.

I am not very interested in this kind of scenery, and naturally I am too lazy to go to those mining cities.

In this way, the cruise ship sailed all the way to Lima, the capital of Peru, and the two people and the dog got off the ship and went into the city.

After playing in Lima for five days, the two men and the dog put on their armor at night, flew straight to the northeast, crossed the border, and entered the deep uninhabited jungle of Acre State, Brazil.

After flying for about an hour, they stopped and landed.

When she landed on the ground covered by giant green trees and then fell into a deep ravine, Selina looked at everything in front of her in amazement: "This is really... amazing."

Luke simply nodded in agreement.

If we want to describe this place with English words, we would probably use words like magical, wonderful, and great, while in Chinese, we can say it is a work of nature, a creation of heaven and earth, and so on.

This deep ditch was obscured by the giant trees and vines on the ground and could not be seen from the sky at all.

The place where Luke and his companions landed was a protruding stone cliff next to a mountain waterfall.

You have to get closer and look down to discover this small valley which is five to ten meters wide, over one hundred meters deep and over two hundred meters long.

It was already night, and on the cliffs of the valley, which should have been pitch black, there were patches of bright green.

On these green patches of cliffs, there are also clusters of dark red fluorescent lights swaying in the night wind, forming a strange and magical picture.

In the eyes of Selena, who was wearing armor, those dark red fluorescent lights were exactly six-petal blood orchids.

The dark red light on the petals of the blood orchid is very dim, but it still changes in brightness in the dark night, just like a human breathing.

Selina was stunned for several seconds, enjoying this dark fairy-tale-style beauty before she murmured, "Is this the raw material of Life No. 1... Dark Night Blood Orchid?"

Luke was also appreciating all this.

After forcing Sloan from the mutual aid association to reveal the secret of the blood orchid cultivation base, he did not come here very often, only two or three times in two years.

However, the characteristics of blood orchid are strange.

It blooms once every six years, and each time the flowering period lasts only about a week, after which it will quickly wither and decay.

In order to facilitate the control of the base, the old fox Sloane divided the blood orchid into three batches for planting, which bloomed once every two years.

He only needs to conduct routine inspections once a year and collect blood orchid extract once every other year.

As a result, it would be impossible for the staff at the base to obtain blood orchid extract privately for consumption.

There were more than fifty staff members here before, more than half of them were men, most of them were yellow neutral or light red minor evil, so of course they couldn't all be killed.

So he first used Sloan's face to temporarily control the place, and then quietly got those innocent people out, handed them over to Rebecca to arrange them in various South American countries, and gave them a certain amount of monetary compensation.

Luke didn't owe these people anything, but they grew such a large area of blood orchids.

He was very satisfied and didn't mind giving a tip.

These innocent people who were sent away will forget everything here in the corner of their memory after receiving deep hypnosis.

In addition, the base is 300 kilometers away from the nearest inhabited area.

The cunning Sloan not only completely cut off the connection between this place and the outside world, but also deliberately selected people with little education.

These people have no ability to escape, and even if they escape they don't know the location of the base.

Knowing that this is the Amazon jungle is meaningless, there are too many uninhabited areas to search.

The dozen or so people who were left were all famous people. They were kept here by Luke for labor reform, but that was the end of it today.

In the absence of companions, these dozen people have developed serious mental problems, and something bad might happen if they continue to use them.

What Luke was afraid of was not that something might happen to these people, but that something might happen to the blood orchids, so he took this opportunity to put an end to it all.
