After a sweep of blue light over Lu Zixun’s body, there was a click from inside the metal box.
A chip appeared in front of Lu Zixun.
After circling around the chip, Lu Zixun’s expression grew even more astonished, mumbling to himself, "Is this really my combat uniform? Could it have been sent to the wrong person?"
As if hearing Lu Zixun’s thoughts, the chip he thought was wrongly sent flickered blue light and suddenly attached to Lu Zixun’s abdomen.
Before Lu Zixun could react, the chip expanded outward.
It formed a cat-shaped armor, enveloping Lu Zixun completely.
Seeing this cool operation, Lu Zixun couldn’t help but curse.
Unable to resist, he raised his paw and touched himself, the more Lu Zixun looked at his outfitted self, the more satisfied he became. It was indeed worth five cities’ worth of Chinese garden cat.
He patted the area where the chest chip was attached, and the armor that covered his body retracted back into the chip—technology that amazed Lu Zixun.
However, with such technology appearing before Lu Zixun, a new question arose in his mind, "Since technology is so advanced, why are Abnormal Creatures still rampant?"
But at this moment, the hall was empty, with no one around to answer Lu Zixun’s questions.
He walked into the kitchen and randomly grabbed something to eat.
Originally planning to go to sleep, Lu Zixun ended up heading down to the basement training area.
When Xiong Kang returned in the dead of night and saw the brightly lit house but not a single cat in sight, he frowned.
Just then, sounds of impacts came from the basement.
Seven longswords floated around Xiong Kang as he immediately dashed down to the basement.
Kicking open the exterior metal door, he was met with the sight of Lu Zixun confronting numerous metal longswords, causing Xiong Kang’s murderous look to instantly soften.
"Ding—Shock Value Detected from Xiong Kang+4000."
Seeing Xiong Kang return, Lu Zixun was thrilled, finally having someone to practice with.
"Aren’t you supposed to be sleeping, what are you up to?"
Xiong Kang, who thought Lu Zixun was on a diet, stared in disbelief.
"I’m training my super... um, superpower."
Almost slipping up, Lu Zixun quickly corrected himself.
This unique method of practicing superpowers was something Xiong Kang had never seen before.
Just as Xiong Kang was about to speak and criticize Lu Zixun, he swallowed his words.
After all, the intention was good, all that was needed was proper guidance.
"Training superpowers isn’t very effective."
Raising a hand to his chin, Xiong Kang continued, "To use superpowers flexibly, you need to sense the flow of superpower inside your body, and be able to precisely control its output."
What he said sounded a bit profound, and Lu Zixun cocked his head, thinking for a moment, before he understood what Xiong Kang meant.
That is, without using a bit more superpower during Magnetic Field Control and Ice Elemental Control, Lu Zixun realized this issue, as some energy would disappear before being used.
After voicing the problem that had troubled him for a long time to Xiong Kang, Xiong Kang inhaled sharply.
"Ding—Shock Value Detected from Xiong Kang+4000."
How could this rascal possess the ability to compete with an A-level Genetic Optimization Soldier without properly controlling his superpowers?
Staring at Lu Zixun as if seeing a ghost, Xiong Kang couldn’t help but inwardly exclaim, "Truly a gifted individual."
After organizing his thoughts, Xiong Kang began to explain the things that a C-level Genetic Optimization Soldier ought to know to Lu Zixun.
Thinking that Lu Zixun almost had the strength of an A-level Genetic Optimization Soldier, Xiong Kang felt annoyed yet amused that he only knew about things appropriate for a C-level.
After carefully listening to Xiong Kang, Lu Zixun’s large eyes filled with shock; superpowers could actually be used this way.
If he had known earlier, facing Ye Xun back then would not have been so strenuous.
Seeing Lu Zixun deep in thought, Xiong Kang quietly left the basement.
He hadn’t eaten since his return. Taking advantage of Lu Zixun’s contemplation, he quickly went to get some food.
Closing his eyes and running his superpower the way Xiong Kang had instructed, Lu Zixun’s proficiency in his superpower instantly increased by ten percent. When he opened his eyes, he was filled with joy.
At this rate, it would only take three days to advance to the Second Order Stage in Magnetic Field Control and even have time to enhance his Ice Elemental Control.
With both superpowers reaching the Second Order, Lu Zixun would have the ability to protect himself even against King-level Creatures.
At this moment, Xiong Kang walked in casually, a sandwich dangling from his mouth.
Looking at Lu Zixun who appeared to have an epiphany, Xiong Kang could barely suppress his laughter.
"Ding — Detected suppressed laughter value from Xiong Kang +4000."
"What are you laughing at?"
Lu Zixun lifted his head and asked.
"Nothing, just thought of something funny."
After a slight pause, Xiong Kang finished his sandwich in a few bites and gestured to Lu Zixun, "Come, let’s see how your abilities are."
As soon as the words fell, a burst of cold air exploded from Lu Zixun, freezing Xiong Kang into an ice cube.
"Ding — Detected Preparedness Value from Xiong Kang +4000."
Using Sword Qi to shatter the ice around him, dozens of metal longswords hovered around Xiong Kang.
Looking at the shining longswords around him, he found that his superpower couldn’t control Lu Zixun’s metal longswords.
Xiong Kang shook his head and raised his hands, "Impressive, I give up."
"Ding — Detected respect value from Xiong Kang +4000."
Retracting his superpower, Lu Zixun looked at Xiong Kang, "How was my surprise move?"
Sincerely praising Lu Zixun, Xiong Kang shook his head, "But it’s just a surprise. It works on humans, but probably not so much on Abnormal Creatures."
"Because Abnormal Creatures have Racial Talents, a kind of foreknowledge of danger."
Somewhat enviously saying so, Xiong Kang sighed silently, "Otherwise, why not just annihilate them with missiles instead of going through the trouble of creating Genetic Optimization Soldiers?"
This instantly resolved Lu Zixun’s previous confusion.
Why, with all this nanotechnology, couldn’t they deal with Abnormal Creatures.
Xiong Kang’s training session continued all night.
The next day, Xiong Kang, yawning and with dark circles under his eyes, walked out of the basement followed by a yawning Orange Cat.
The night had exhausted Xiong Kang terribly.
Unable to use his killer moves while constantly switching between attack modes for Abnormal Creatures and humans really tired him out.
Just as the man and cat were contemplating what to have for breakfast, they saw someone sitting on the living room sofa, reading a newspaper.
