In the two villas, the five deceased new humans were devoured by Mu Xiao one by one, and he absorbed the rich blood energy contained in their hearts, causing his genetic resonance frequency to increase nine times, exactly thirty times. Because among the five new humans whose blood energy was absorbed, there was a new human with mechanical knowledge. Although Mu Xiao did not absorb the mechanical source, the residual mechanical memory in that new human's bloodline genes was partially absorbed by Mu Xiao, and his "mechanical" ability broke through to the third realm.
At the same time, Mu Shuo's physique had made a leap forward, and he was only one step away from entering the "top-notch" second heavy realm. He could now withstand physical strength of almost 6,000 kilograms, and his ordinary punch could exert more than 3,000 kilograms of force. His pure physical strength alone could instantly kill new humans of the same level, not to mention other superior characteristics of his body.
The greatest reliance of Mu Xiao, "Intentional Divine Power", although not successfully cultivated, both Nen and Spiritual Power have been enhanced. If merged into the initial state of "Intentional Divine Power", the blood energy spring contained in the bloodline gene can support the basic might unleashed by the brief initial state of "Intentional Divine Power", without fear of the body providing insufficient source, leading to backlash side effects.
Blood is a kind of source, and it's an essential source for the body.
The current Mu Xi's robust blood energy is several times that of ordinary new humans, and a small part of the power of "intentional divine force" can be used. However, to successfully cultivate it, the genetic evolution degree still needs to reach a higher level of realm.
……
Mu Xiao and An Rongru went back and forth between the two villas, wasting about ten minutes. Jian Hanyao and Pang Xuejun's group, if nothing unexpected happened, had already successfully merged with the landlord's side. However, according to the quiet night, it was clear that a new human battle in the villa area had not yet truly begun.
"Have you found any signs of life from that little girl, Jian Huan Yao?" Mu Xiao asked An Rongru while manipulating his spiritual energy to mask their auras and reduce the chances of being discovered by nocturnal creatures.
"She was in a position at the entertainment venue, perhaps with Pang Xuejun and those owners who had not yet departed." An Rongru followed closely behind Mu Xiao with quick steps.
"Life Detection" has a specific perception, as long as the target is not far from An Rongruo, she can know the direction of the target. Since Jian Huanxiao's life aura was also in An Rongruo's mind, it would be impossible for her to forget. Therefore, An Rongruo only needs to activate the "Life Detection" feature to sense the general location where Jian Huanxiao is located.
On a dark night, mutant monsters drifted about like malevolent spirits, the surroundings seeming to have unknown dangers lurking everywhere...
Mu Xiao and Jian Han Yao had the spiritual power to conduct a range of exploration, successfully avoiding the variant monsters on the way ahead, and arrived at a place that looked like an amusement park. Inside, there were many exquisite and beautiful mechanical devices, but it was too quiet and dark. Those beautiful paintings and sculptures also seemed particularly cold and eerie, completely lacking the joyful atmosphere of playfulness. This place was actually a children's playground, part of the entertainment area.
"Now start to gather spiritual power, don't let it leak out. I've already sensed a faint spiritual fluctuation nearby, someone is monitoring the surroundings, should be a spiritual-type new human from the landlord's side." Mu Xiao slowed down his pace, An Rongru also slowed down her footsteps, recalling the scattered spiritual power probe, gathering it within the range of the two people, isolating the life fluctuations on their bodies.
The entertainment venue has a gigantic building that emits a faint glow, which is the clubhouse established by An Rongyu. It has top-notch advanced equipment and is not inferior to any international hotel. It can be said that this is one of the most comfortable places in the entire villa area.
But now it has become the base of the owners, even if they face the doomsday disaster, they are very good at using the resources of the villa area to continue enjoying their luxurious life as before. An Rongru is familiar with all the passages in this club, and Mu Xiao follows her lead, sneaking into the interior from the hidden back door of the club.
There was a life detector with An Rongruo, and soon Jian Hanyao's location was confirmed. She was in a restaurant on the fifth floor.
"We'll go to the sixth floor to monitor their movements, no need to pay attention to what plans they have, just wait for them to start fighting and the security personnel will take care of it." Mu Xiao listened to An Rongru's report on Jian Huan Yao's location and simply prepared to guard the spot, after all, revealing her identity now would not bring any benefits.
An Rongru didn't have any ideas of her own, and everything was arranged by Mu Xiao. The two of them quietly passed through a group of people guarding the third or fourth floor, but most of them were just old humans, and the surroundings weren't brightly lit either. The faint light couldn't illuminate the entire club. So, Mu Xiao and An Rongru easily went straight to a rest room on the sixth floor, which was right above the restaurant. If something happened downstairs, the two of them would definitely be able to hear the commotion from the windowsill in the room.
"It's still early tonight, I think they won't act so quickly. Now we'll take advantage of this time to rest and recover our energy, adjust ourselves to the best state." Mu Xiao sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes to meditate, letting both body and mind be in a standby state.
"We're here, will Huan Yao get into trouble?" An Rongruo sat down beside Mu Xiao, saying with some worry.
"That girl is a clever person, if she's in any danger, she'll definitely make a big noise and attract our attention." Mu Xiao said calmly.
"Hmm." An Rongru felt a bit more at ease, and like Mu Xiao, she closed her eyes to calm her mind, sinking her chaotic thoughts, quietly sensing the changes around her, adjusting the fluctuations of her spiritual energy.
……
The luxurious dining hall on the fifth floor was filled with over thirty people, each with a stern, contemplative and indifferent expression.
"If the previous conditions are not a problem, we will set off in an hour. Delaying too long may allow Song Tianhu to discover that something is amiss at the villa." A middle-aged man with a majestic appearance, bright and piercing eyes like sharp swords, sat quietly in front of a group of extraordinary new humans, obviously most people regarded him as the leader, highlighting his awe-inspiring presence.
He is the leader of a group of new human landlords - Ding Qiluo.
Before the doomsday explosion, he was already a prominent figure in the entire upper circle. Firstly, he had strong connections in the military, and secondly, he was a business genius who established a large investment group at just 30 years old. After turning 40, almost every industry had his investment footprint.
A man with great strategic vision.
After the doomsday, Ding Qi's extraordinary ability was recognized by most of the owners. He foresaw Song Tianhu's conspiracy to use the masses to kill the mutant monsters and then unify the villa area. Therefore, at a critical moment, he led his men to leave Song Tianhu's side, avoiding some people from suffering misfortune.
Moreover, when clearing out mutated monsters, under his command very few people died, and they could even kill some enhanced zombies at a low cost. He obtained many ability sources, silently establishing his prestige among the group of landlords. Of course, most landlords were not used to being restrained, after all they were also once renowned big shots, listening to someone else's commands was somewhat uncomfortable.
Ding Qi's approach was the most effective, as he managed to grasp the thoughts of the majority of the owners. As a result, he never used a commanding tone, but instead adopted an attitude of discussing matters with everyone. By putting himself in a representative position, he undoubtedly made those arrogant owners feel less resistant.
Once those owners got used to Dingle's existence, they would eventually become dependent on him for survival under the quiet and subtle influence, then Dingle would successfully have these owners in his grasp.
"The conditions are fine, but departing in an hour might be a bit too late." Pang Xuejun's calm and composed demeanor was not inferior to Ding Qi's, after all, he had seen many grand scenes in this upper-class circle and was once a manager-like figure in the Jian family. In the past, no one dared to underestimate him, let alone now that he was an ability user with the qualifications to sit on equal terms with them.
"We have someone keeping an eye on Song Tianhu's movements, and we also need to make some arrangements within the hour." Ding Qi slightly turned his head towards Jian Huan Yao, who was sitting with a cold expression, and said with a warm smile: "Huan Yao, do you plan on staying? If you stay, we welcome you to join us just the same. You indeed have the qualifications to join us, whether it's your former identity or your current abilities. If your mother were still here, I believe she would also choose our side."
"Uncle, put away that annoying smile of yours." Jian Huan Yao bluntly refused, "Joining you guys, who knows when I'll be sold out to you, and still have to count the money for you."
Many people present knew that this seemingly innocent and lovely little girl actually had a very bad temper of a big sister.
"Hanyao, you're still as sharp-tongued as ever." A beautiful woman let out a charming laugh. "But Auntie has to remind you, the world is no longer what it used to be. Nobody cares about social status anymore. With your personality, you'll eventually offend someone you shouldn't have, and that won't end well for you."
"What are you, do I need to teach you? And shut your stinky mouth, just looking at you makes me uncomfortable." Jian Huan Yao retorted sharply and selfishly, not even giving the woman a glance, her small head held high, appearing extremely proud.
A beautiful and elegant woman was said to have a foul mouth, something that any woman would find unbearable.
"Hanyao, you're getting more and more unruly!" The woman's face was flushed with anger, her hand clutching several small, bead-like objects. "I'll teach you a lesson on behalf of An Rongru right now."
As she spoke, a surge of energy quickly gathered in her hand, and like scattered flowers, she threw out all the marbles. Each marble stirred up a bursting sound, as if carrying a powerful impact force.
"Alright, Qianping." Ding Qi's hand moved swiftly, leaving a faint shadow as he caught all the marbles with incredible speed, not a single one damaged. He slowly put down a few metal marbles, "We're not in a good time for internal conflict, it's wiser to save our energy to deal with those security guards."
"Hmph, I was just teaching her a lesson, this impudent little girl. If it wasn't for me switching out the knife, she wouldn't have died but would have lost a layer of skin." Qian Ping's delicate face slightly bulged with veins, apparently Ding Qi had lightly caught her metal marble, and she felt that her face didn't look too good.
Her ability is "Power Infusion" where any object can be infused with her strength, like the power of a punch, infusing it into an object, that object will have her one-punch strength. Of course, the smaller the object, the more convenient it is to throw out, and the faster the speed.
So, the few marbles she shot out were equivalent to several punches with all her might, but Ding Qi easily caught them, and it was clear that her strength was not as good as Ding Qi's.
"Isn't it just a throwing hand?" Jian Huan Yao said disdainfully: "With your throwing speed, I have the ability to dodge and then kill you with one sword. Moreover, you can't sustain the power infusion for too long, once you lose the infusion, aren't you just a guy waiting to die?"
Jian Han-Yao was right, that woman named Qian-Ping, if she infuses too much power, her body can't withstand the high-frequency power surges, just like a boxer can't keep using heavy punches.
"Qian Ping was seen through by Jian Huan Yao, her own weakness exposed, her beautiful snow-white face turned red to the extreme."
"Stop arguing!" Ding Qi's face sank slightly, and the entire atmosphere was like a huge boulder had been pressed down, giving off a palpable feeling.
This is his "Environmental Analysis" power. With just one glance, he can remember any environment, form a clear projection in his mind, deduce the best combat position and defensive formation, and even use the environment to create a unique aura that exerts pressure.
A great auxiliary ability, which is also the main reason why most owners agree that he should be their representative.
