Liang Yuan felt the changes within his body. After all the unusual sensations had subsided, he opened his eyes, silently called out to the system, and checked the attribute panel.
Skills: [Muscle Burst], [Spirit Shock]
Mutation Progress: 27%
Lottery Items: 1 ton of flour, 1 ton of pork, 1 ton of snack packs, 1 ton of coal, a Glock, petrol*1...
Liang Yuan’s mind vibrated. The moment his spiritual power broke through 10 points, he immediately noticed something unusual about it.
His spiritual power was now almost tangible, easily able to interfere with reality.
Liang Yuan’s eyes flashed, and a fruit knife appeared out of nowhere in his hand.
Under the control of his spiritual power, it floated effortlessly.
Liang Yuan smiled: "With spiritual power surpassing 10 points, I can now easily manipulate objects as heavy as a fruit knife."
He still remembered that, previously, although he could manipulate objects, he could at most handle lightweight ones like iron nails.
But the mass of a fruit knife far exceeded that of an iron nail.
This meant his spiritual telekinesis had made great progress!
"I wonder when my spiritual telekinesis will be able to lift myself directly."
He mused quietly. If he could reach that level, wouldn’t he be able to fly using telekinesis?
Just think about it: with floods raging outside and no way to traverse the terrain, how convenient it would be to fly using telekinesis?
But just as he thought of this, he suddenly recalled the tragic scene of that military transport plane he had seen before.
The scene of that monster bird, resembling a pterosaur from the movies, tearing apart the transport plane remained vivid in his memory.
He couldn’t help but take a deep breath: "It seems that even if I can fly, it’s best to stick to low-altitude flights. Who knows how many monster birds are above the clouds."
Now he understood why state rescue efforts hadn’t reached them yet.
With all three modes of transportation—land, water, and air—land was submerged by floods, the water was teeming with monsters, making travel by boat extremely dangerous.
And the sky was filled with such monster birds, making air travel equally perilous.
"No wonder the state advised everyone to self-rescue; they indeed have no other option."
"However, considering the might of the state machinery, there must still be organizational and resistance capabilities somewhere, just not here."
There were no known large military bases around Linjiang City, and Liang Yuan’s area had none either.
So they were destined not to find state-backed organizational strength here.
He slightly adapted to his enhanced body.
With a constitution as high as 8.8, he felt an extreme surge of energy, and his endurance during full bursts had significantly increased.
With his current constitution and endurance, he could throw hundreds of punches at full power without feeling winded.
Not only that, but with the enhancement of his spirit attribute, what previously allowed him to utilize spiritual telekinesis for only about five minutes now lasted for about ten minutes before he felt mental fatigue.
And as his constitution improved, his recovery time after consuming spiritual power shortened as well. Whereas it used to take an hour to recuperate, it now took about forty minutes to regain his Essence, Qi, and Spirit.
Undoubtedly, the enhancement of his physical attributes greatly increased his overall endurance and recovery power.
"A night’s rest; I wonder how many fish Elder Lin and the others can catch tomorrow."
Thinking of Elder Lin and the others fishing overnight to repay him, Liang Yuan couldn’t help but smile.
Early tomorrow, a lot of Points would be added to his account again.
What could be more exciting than that?
He lay in bed, closing his eyes to rest.
Of course, he couldn’t genuinely sleep deeply. In this unfamiliar place, maintaining vigilance was a must.
As Liang Yuan and Zhao Kai rested, all units of Building 75 were celebrating Deng Hu’s death excitedly.
Daoist Lin, along with Yang Shenmin, Shi Haizhu, and others, led the homeowners who had been oppressed by Deng Hu’s gang, starting to capture the remaining members of Deng Hu’s gang.
On the fourteenth floor, Daoist Lin and others gathered here.
Shi Haizhu, bringing a large group of people, arrived excitedly: "Daoist Lin, Dr. Yang, we have captured Deng Hu’s main lackeys. Yu Youcheng and Zhao Dekai tried to resist and were beaten to death by the homeowners on the spot."
Daoist Lin slapped the railing and said, "Those two bastards deserved to die long ago. Good riddance."
Before he awakened his mutant ability, he had witnessed these two abduct a girl next door and assault her.
Back then, Daoist Lin had been scared and horrified, deeply detesting those two.
Now, hearing about their deaths, he was extremely excited.
Yang Shenmin quickly asked, "Have you found the food hidden by Deng Hu?"
Shi Haizhu shook his head and said, "Room 3212 has been surrounded by us. The three women with Liang Minru keep saying the food is in rooms 3211, 3207, 3208."
Daoist Lin hurriedly asked, "Have these rooms been searched?"
Yang Shenmin said, "They were already searched. When Zhao Kai was knocking on Unit 4, we followed him."
"Could they have been taken away?" Daoist Lin asked, shocked and angry.
"Impossible, no one else but Mr. Liang has been in those rooms," Yang Shenmin immediately said.
"Then did he take them?" Daoist Lin promptly asked.
Shi Haizhu couldn’t help but say, "Daoist Lin, we saw Mr. Liang come out at that time. He didn’t have anything in his hands, so it’s impossible he took them."
"Could he have hidden them, and you didn’t see? He is a Mutant Ability User after all." Daoist Lin speculated.
