Chapter 536: Chapter 536: The Hope of Gold Ability Users?
On the other side.
Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai returned directly to the location of the bus.
Before they stopped, they saw a young man talking to Bai Yifan from a distance.
He was a handsome young man, looking about twenty-three or four years old, exuding a sunny, charming aura.
Just at a glance, he seemed like a positive energy youth.
"Sis, Brother Leng, you’re back!"
Bai Yifan waved to greet Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai from afar.
The young man also looked up in their direction, a faint smile on his face.
When Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai reached them, Bai Yifan excitedly approached Bai Xiqin, his voice a bit agitated.
"Brother Feng says my superpower is very special. He wants me to join his team of Superpower Users!"
Bai Yifan felt a subtle sense of pride.
Because he had always been a First Rank Superpower User, almost no one said his abilities were strong or special enough.
Although he always believed he was the strongest high school student ever, it was just self-deception.
However, Brother Feng just mentioned that after joining the team of Superpower Users, he would get the training necessary to enhance his abilities more quickly in the future.
He hadn’t had the chance to ask how to quickly enhance his abilities before his sister and Brother Leng returned.
"Brother Feng?" Bai Xiqin looked at the young man, "Your name is Feng Ge?"
The surname Feng was not common. The last time Bai Xiqin saw it was on the Base Commander’s list.
At the top was the name Feng Ge.
He was a customer of the butcher stall, one who absorbed the Crystal Core of human Superpower Users brains.
Feng Ge was an old customer of the butcher stall owner, almost one of the first group of customers and soon ready for harvesting.
Feng Ge was eager to enhance his abilities, unaware that once he did, he would become essential nourishment for the mutant pumpkin vine.
"Hello, my name is Feng Ge." The young man smiled brightly and extended his finger, "You must be Xiao Fan’s sister and brother-in-law! I heard your superpowers are very strong!"
The slender finger paused in mid-air, ready to shake hands with Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai, but they didn’t respond, leaving the finger awkwardly suspended.
Feng Ge’s gaze lingered on Leng Yebai’s face for a moment, revealing a surprised expression.
Rumor had it that the Base Commander found his son who had been missing for over twenty years, presumably it was the man in front of him.
A fleeting gloominess passed over Feng Ge’s face, quickly disappearing.
"Xiao Fan doesn’t need to join a team of Superpower Users. You should find someone else instead!"
Leng Yebai’s voice was cool, his gaze toward Feng Ge carrying a hint of killing intent.
Given that Feng Ge absorbed Crystal Cores from human brains, if he set his sights on someone’s Crystal Core, he would certainly act.
It seemed like he had his eye on Bai Yifan’s Crystal Core.
However, Bai Yifan was only a First Rank Superpower User, while he was already at the pinnacle of the Fourth Rank. What use was a First Rank Crystal Core!
"I hope you seriously consider it. Xiao Fan is very talented; if he can join my team of Superpower Users, he can certainly enhance his abilities faster." Feng Ge smiled faintly, unbothered by the cold aura coming from Leng Yebai.
For him, who Leng Yebai’s father was didn’t matter.
What mattered was, the person he wanted to recruit was Bai Yifan, the Gold Ability User.
Because he was also a Gold Ability User, and absorbing the Crystal Core of another Gold Ability User would hasten the enhancement of abilities.
Bai Yifan’s abilities being too low didn’t matter; what mattered was he had a way to quickly enhance a First Rank Superpower User’s rank.
Once Bai Yifan reached a certain rank, it would be his time to harvest.
Even the presence of the Base Commander would be futile.
As the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.
Feng Ge would never expect that the butcher stall owner shared his thoughts.
Feng Ge only wanted to recruit more team members with Gold Ability.
In the post-apocalyptic world, accidents occur continuously. If Bai Yifan died while executing a mission, it’s believed the Base Commander wouldn’t say anything.
Feng Ge would never comprehend that the Base Commander’s thoughts aligned closely with his.
The Base Commander’s method of making Superpower Users who absorbed human Crystal Cores disappear was also by manufacturing accidents.
Feng Ge was smiling, appearing as though his smile could warm anyone like a spring breeze, but his thoughts were chilling.
"No need, my younger brother doesn’t want to enhance his abilities." Bai Xiqin squinted slightly.
Anyone thinking of rapidly enhancing abilities would know how; it must involve absorbing human brain Crystal Cores.
Even if Xiao Fan had the desire, he lacked the courage!
"Sis! I want to enhance my abilities!"
Bai Yifan tugged at Bai Xiqin’s sleeve with his fingers, quietly retorting.
He had always been a First Rank Superpower User, the lowest rank in the family’s superpower hierarchy.
Even though living off others brings joy in the post-apocalyptic world, he still dreamt of becoming stronger.
Despite his seemingly carefree demeanor, he absorbed Crystal Cores daily according to his sister’s methods.
But regrettably, from then until now, he remained a First Rank Superpower User.
Earlier, while playing nearby, he used his superpower briefly, and a big brother approached.
Claimed he was a prodigy, and if he joined the team of Superpower Users, his abilities would surely advance.
Bai Yifan thought, wasn’t this like in TV where an exceptionally talented passerby fumbles upon the protagonist to impart unparalleled skills!
Momentarily, Bai Yifan’s adolescence syndrome flared up.
He started imagining himself as a High Rank Superpower User.
His father would look on with admiration and concern, his grandfather would kindly cook for him, his sister would smile and say he was the world’s best brother, and his mother would gently wash fruits for him...
Thinking of this, Bai Yifan nearly laughed out loud.
Indeed, he suited becoming stronger.
"I’ll give you a chance to rephrase."
Bai Xiqin coldly interrupted Bai Yifan in his daydreams.
Shivering in his fantasy, Bai Yifan caught the look of death from his sister.
That look, aura, posture, scene...
"What I meant was, I don’t want to enhance my abilities; I just want to be a quiet, dependent pretty boy."
Under his sister’s deadly gaze, Bai Yifan gave in.
Surrendering wasn’t shameful to him, as anyone would give in to a scary sibling like his.
"My little brother doesn’t want to enhance his abilities, you should leave!" Bai Xiqin told Feng Ge.
Feng Ge wasn’t angry, but instead his gaze lingered on Bai Xiqin’s face for a moment.
In the post-apocalyptic world, beautiful girls were becoming scarcer.
Such a pretty girl’s brain must contain a beautiful Crystal Core?
Feng Ge’s mouth moved as though to say more when someone called to him.
"Captain Feng, Base Commander is looking for you!"
A team member of Superpower Users sprinted over, gasping.
"Since Base Commander wants to see me, I’ll be going. Xiao Fan, let me know if you change your mind."
Feng Ge smiled at Bai Yifan, then walked towards the base’s entrance with the team member.
"He’s the hope of us Gold Ability Users!"
Bai Yifan mused slightly while watching Feng Ge’s back.
