Chapter 199: Growth of the Superpowered People

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

In Ye Xingchen’s eyes, a truly chaotic world was about to begin. The previous battles caused by the extremely cold and extremely high temperatures were all small fights.

The rise of superpowered people symbolized the arrival of a new era. In the future, the world’s development will definitely be dominated by superpowered people. If superpowered people were strong, they could make their country strong.

However, the entire world was in chaos now. Unless one day, there was a person or a force that was strong enough to rule the entire world. As the saying goes, the times created heroes. Only then would the entire world have hope of restoring rules and order.

However, no one knew what kind of abilities these superpowered people in this world had. They could only rely on force to solve all problems.

However, one thing was certain. If these superpowered people fought without any scruples, it would be a devastating disaster for ordinary people.

Not long ago, there was another video on the Internet. For some reason, two people with superpowers fought. Because the speed was too fast, the naked eye could not see the movements of the two people. They could only watch it through slowed-down playback.

In just a few seconds, the two of them had already fought hundreds of rounds Their bodies were intertwined, and their moves were continuous. Every move was filled with power and speed. Every punch hit flesh, every kick hit bones, and every collision produced a deafening sound.

The most interesting part of the video was at the third minute and twenty-one seconds. One of the people was punched back until his body passed through three high-rise buildings that were hundreds of meters tall. However, there was no sign of injury. In the blink of an eye, he started fighting with another superpowered person.

This video would once again show the power of superpowered people to the fullest. Ordinary people would be amazed when they saw it. Fortunately, the place where the two of them fought was in a ruined area, so no innocent people were hurt.

Other than the huge impact it brought to ordinary people, it had once again stimulated people who wanted to awaken their superpowers. For a time, there was another wave of awakening. Everyone had a dream of being a hero, and now they finally saw the possibility of their dreams coming true, making countless people go crazy.

Ye Xingchen naturally noticed the two of them, but the scene in the video was clearly not in Jinghai City or even in his own country. There was no way to contact them.

In the time that followed, the number of people who awakened their abilities increased again, but for some reason, the success rate of awakening became lower and lower.

In the beginning, there were about ten out of a hundred people who could succeed. Recently, this probability has become about one percent. Only one out of a hundred people could succeed, and this probability was still decreasing… All the surviving forces, whether official or private, were stepping up their recruitment of superpowered people. The strength and number of superpowered people would directly determine who could seize the initiative in future wars.

Perhaps one day, scientists will be able to develop a vaccine to save the mutated people, restore the weather to normal, and return everything to normal! However, the prerequisite was that one had to survive.

After expanding his territory, Ye Xingchen recruited people a few more times. The two people sent by Gao Qiwen were originally planning to secretly observe the fortress where Ye Xingchen was located to collect information but they happened to know that Ye Xingchen was recruiting again, so they pretended to join Ye Xingchen. With their powerful abilities, they really succeeded.

Cang Feng and Ling Yun’s abilities were much more powerful than ordinary abilities. One of them could control the water vapor in the air to condense into ice, and the other could metalize anything they touched. As expected, these two people were recruited by Ye Xingchen.

The combination of these two abilities was extremely special. One could condense water vapor into ice cubes of any shape and size, and the other could turn them into metal. In this way, they could create any kind of metal. Ye Xingchen supported these two people as if he had found a treasure, making them build bullets every day!

Ye Xingchen already had a huge demand for ammunition. Now, it could be said that someone was giving him exactly what he wanted.

For the sake of safety, Ye Xingchen had placed the people who were recruited later on another mountain for Lin Pei and the others to train. Everyone had to go through a month of screening before they were qualified to enter the safety fortress.

The most important thing was to find out who were the infiltrators. As long as they sent information to the outside world, they would definitely give themselves away.

With so many new faces, Ye Xingchen rearranged the distribution of the rooms in the safety fortress. He and Lin Sijia lived in the innermost part of the safety fortress, while Zhao Hao and the others lived next to Ye Xingchen. Everything in the central control room was also moved to Ye Xingchen’s residence.

Ye Xingchen was observing these people all the time every day. He also brought Little Black, Mo Qi, Zhao Hao, and Qin Tianming with him at all times.

With the few of them around, and Ye Xingchen’s dimensional space ability, he was confident that no one could hurt him in his fortress.

Gao Qiwen could be considered patient. Ling Yun and Cang Feng had been hiding for a whole month, but Gao Qiwen had not launched an attack. Even though no one had attacked, Ye Xingchen still felt a little uneasy. After all, the quieter it was, the bigger the storm.

Perhaps these superpowered people knew that they would be tested, so they did not notice any abnormal behavior during that month.

A month later, Ling Yun and Cang Feng entered the safety fortress together. Due to their special abilities, they didn’t need to be part of the patrol.

Whenever they had time, they would wander around the safety fortress and then go back to secretly send messages to Gao Qiwen.

The two of them were always together. They were together when they were working and when they were not working. However, due to the combination of their abilities, no one suspected them.

At the same time, the acid rain outside continued to fall. The water level outside was getting higher and higher. The officials issued a series of announcements to recruit people without restraint. The officials were also rushing to recruit superpowered people.

They knew very well that without a powerful backing, the government would be useless.

Gao Qiwen was considered lucky as the area under his jurisdiction was relatively high. The rain hadn’t spread to his residence yet. However, when he saw that the water was about to spread to his residence, Gao Qiwen glanced at Ling Yun’s message on his phone. Finally, he gritted his teeth and decided to attack Ye Xingchen’s safety fortress.

He hadn’t fully understood Ye Xingchen’s situation, nor had he found out what kind of special abilities the core figures here had, but he couldn’t care less at this moment..
