Speed Ability (1)
In fact, the super gene optimization fluid Purple Jade researched by the top scientist Harris was not a poison. On the contrary, its medicinal effect far exceeded everyone's expectations.
The Purple Jade had successfully opened Xia Fei's seventh brain region. This was like opening a door. Ordinary gene optimization fluid would only be able to open a small gap, but the Purple Jade was using an insane method! It was like an explosion! It completely destroyed the door! Even the walls were not spared!
Without any obstruction, the enormous power contained in the seventh brain region was completely released. A majestic and vast power surged into Xia Fei's brain like a tsunami!
Xia Fei lost all consciousness and fell into the bathtub filled with cold water.
If Xia Fei did not resist it and allowed it to develop, the final outcome would be the same as those who had consumed the Purple Jade before, eternal sleep, never to wake up again.
However, humans would burst out with a strong desire to survive when faced with a desperate situation, especially those who usually looked weak. Those insignificant beings that grew like weeds often had unimaginable tenacity!
Xia Fei's body was violently shaking in the bathtub as if someone had dropped a high-voltage cable into the water, causing water to splash everywhere.
His brain had already lost consciousness, and the last bit of consciousness was telling him, "Don't give up! Don't give up until the very last moment! "
Success was ninety-nine percent effort and one percent luck. Xia Fei had already used two hundred percent of his effort to struggle, so where was that one percent luck?
The clear water in the bathtub poured into Xia Fei's mouth, nose, and ears, making him unable to breathe. This was simply double the torture!
As time passed, Xia Fei's struggle became more and more powerless.
Suddenly!
The Moore Stone in front of his chest that looked like a drop of blood suddenly burst forth with a bright luster!
The bright red color was like a red lightning bolt, filling the small bathroom in an instant.
The morning sun shone through the narrow window, and the sky gradually brightened.
Achoo!
Xia Fei sneezed and sat up from the floor.
His face was still very pale, and his whole body was weak as if he had just experienced a serious illness.
Achoo! Achoo! Achoo!
After three consecutive sneezes, Xia Fei actually felt a lot more relaxed. His body was rapidly recovering at an unimaginable speed.
"Aiya, it's so cold!"
Xia Fei stood up and ran back to the bedroom, hiding under the covers at a speed that would leave anyone speechless.
Half an hour later, his body gradually warmed up, and after changing into a clean set of clothes, Xia Fei walked into the living room.
He couldn't remember why he was sleeping in the bathroom. Moreover, he was completely drenched. He only remembered that he had consumed the gene optimization fluid. Now, he was anxious to find out what kind of ability he had obtained.
Xia Fei tried to move his body. The gene optimization fluid he consumed last night did not leave behind any side effects. Now, be it his physical or mental state, Xia Fei was feeling very good. He felt that his entire body was brimming with energy.
In the living room hung a canvas sandbag full of patches, old and heavy.
Xia Fei narrowed his eyes and took a deep breath.
He punched with his right fist!
Peng!
The heavy sandbag shook a little.
"Eh?"
Xia Fei could not believe his eyes. The speed of that punch was clearly much faster than before. It was practically the legendary Shadowless Hand.
There were two possibilities. One was that Xia Fei's eyes were playing tricks on him, and the other was that the gene optimization fluid had increased his speed.
The room was really too narrow, and there was no way he could use it.
Xia Fei walked down the stairs and arrived at the backyard.
The backyard was an abandoned tannery. Walking in it, he could still smell the sour stench. The weeds displayed a tenacious vitality in such an environment. They grew wildly from the road and the roof.
It was currently early in the morning, and the surroundings were empty. A white wildcat was lazily lying on the roof, yawning.
Xia Fei sprinted along the road that was overgrown with weeds. The wind whistled past his ears. "Such a fast speed. This must be an ability! It's the speed ability! "Xia Fei was pleasantly surprised.
The combat ability was the most common ability. Out of all the humans who had opened their seventh brain region, more than 70% of them would obtain a combat ability.
The combat ability was divided into three main categories: speed, strength, and special abilities.
Among them, strength was the most common, making up more than 80% of the people. Speed was second, making up around 15%. Only less than 5% of the people would obtain a special ability.
There was a short wall in front of him, which was about 1.78 meters tall. Xia Fei used his left foot to step on the ground and leaped over the wall. His posture was even more standard than a hurdler.
What was flying? This was it!
According to Xia Fei's estimation, his current speed of 100 meters should be around five seconds.
The ten-second barrier that most people would find hard to surpass had been surpassed in a single night. Xia Fei had transformed from an ordinary bicycle courier into one of the few ability users on Earth.
While he was pleasantly surprised, Xia Fei could not help but admire the power of the seventh brain region.
Five seconds for 100 meters was definitely not the limit. In the foreseeable future, Xia Fei would definitely be able to reach an even higher speed, a speed that normal people could not imagine!
When he got home, Xia Fei took a cold shower as fast as he could before changing into a new set of clothes. He was already drenched in sweat from earlier.
Riding his Giant road bicycle, Xia Fei went straight to the western part of the city. That was where the Federation's A-class Citizen Management Bureau was located.
The Beijing branch of the Earth Federation's A-class Citizen Management Bureau was located in the bustling western district. This place used to be where the embassies of various countries were located. Now that it was the Federation, the original 224 countries, big and small, had all been abolished, so the embassies were gradually forgotten by people as time passed.
A-class citizens were also called special ability citizens. This was a standard product of the new era. Ever since humans understood the seventh brain region, the Federation citizens were divided according to their ranks.
Those who had not unlocked their seventh brain region were called ordinary citizens, while those who had unlocked their seventh brain region were A-class citizens.
The Earth Federation was still in the early stages of space civilization. Every special ability user was very precious. The government, the military, and large multinational corporations were all recruiting special ability users, and the benefits they offered were even more generous.
Once they became an A-class citizen, not only would they enjoy many privileges, but they would also immediately receive a cash reward of 100,000 federal dollars.
Once I get the money, I will move out of the slums and find a decent job. I won't have to look at the tragic face of Wang Er's wife anymore. Xia Fei happily thought to himself.
Xia Fei rode his bicycle like a nimble loach as he weaved through the streets. He could see that twelve-story building from afar, as well as that huge golden sign.
The huge 'A' was engraved on the building. It was extremely dazzling, as if it was constantly reminding people that this place was different.
Xia Fei parked his bicycle and strode in.
There was only a young lady standing at the reception desk. She looked to be in her early twenties.
Hello, I'm here to register as an A-class citizen.
Upon hearing this, the people who were originally scattered around the hall rushed over. Each of them had an exquisitely packaged package in their hands, and they stuffed it into Xia Fei's hands the moment they saw him.
I'm the representative of Pfizer Pharmaceuticals. I hope that you will join our company in the future. We will not hesitate in terms of salary. A young business representative said as he handed over his company's profile and gift.
Pfizer Pharmaceuticals! Global Top 500, the one that invented 'Viagra'! Xia Fei was surprised.
I'm the representative of Erickson Mobil.
I'm from IBM.
I'm the representative of a local company, Sany Heavy Industry. I wonder if you have any intention of working at our company?
I'm the representative of Microsoft. If you have an intelligence ability, you must remember to visit our company. Even if you don't, it's fine. We are willing to cooperate with you in other fields.
Sir, I'm the representative of Deloitte Accounting Firm. If you need financial professionals to help you, our company is willing to serve you wholeheartedly. We won't charge a single cent.
“ibm！ Microsoft! Mobil! Xia Fei almost fainted from the sudden bliss.
Which one of these industry giants wasn't a top-notch company? Now, these companies were actually begging him to work at their companies. Was he dreaming?
Overnight, Xia Fei, the bicycle courier, had become a delicious cake in the eyes of these mega corporations. It was like a sparrow flying to the top and becoming a phoenix.
What was lacking in the 21st century?
Talents!
Especially those who had unlocked their seventh brain region!
That was even more expensive than gold!
"Alright, everyone!" A male staff member walked out and said loudly, "Let's talk about your matters later. Right now, I'm going to bring this gentleman for a test."
The representatives of the multinational corporations unwillingly retreated to the side.
"Hello, I'm Wang Bin. Please follow me."
Wang Bin led Xia Fei into a very brightly lit room, where several uniformed staff members were already waiting, all with bright smiles on their faces.
A slightly older man walked over. He had short blond hair and looked very spirited.
Beside him was a short lady. This lady was around 30 years old and wore a pair of glasses.
The blond old man smiled at Xia Fei and said, "Dear federal citizen, congratulations on successfully unlocking the mysterious seventh brain region. I wonder what kind of ability you've obtained?"
"Speed," Xia Fei said bluntly.
"Uhh, you can understand my Ukrainian?" The old man was quite surprised. The lady beside him was originally going to translate for Xia Fei, but he didn't expect Xia Fei to be even more fluent than her.
Xia Fei scratched his head in embarrassment. "A little, a little."
The reason why Xia Fei could converse with the other party in Ukrainian was all because of the translation chip he had.
The translation chip was a very magical thing. It could translate most of the languages in the universe, and it was an intelligent translation. There was no need for a preset database or anything.
Xia Fei was affected by the translation chip. When he heard the other party speak Ukrainian, the words that came out of his mouth were naturally Ukrainian as well.
"What a talented young man. Nice to meet you. My name is Podoski. I'm the director of the Earth Federation's A-class Citizen Management Bureau in Beijing." Podoski said with an expression of admiration.
These days, people who could unlock the seventh brain region were highly valued by the federal government. Plus, Xia Fei could speak Ukrainian fluently, so naturally, Podoski, who was in a foreign land, felt very close.
"My name is Xia Fei. I'm from China," Xia Fei said.
Podoski smiled. "You should say you're a citizen of the Earth Federation."
Xia Fei scratched his head in embarrassment. "Hehe, I'm used to it. I can't change it in a short time."
The two of them answered fluently. The bespectacled lady had to perk up her ears and listen carefully. She often couldn't keep up with the speed of their conversation. Her face revealed her admiration for Xia Fei.
"To be able to speak Ukrainian so well, you should know that Ukrainian is a very difficult language to learn. It's also a very unpopular language. I've only reached this level after learning for over ten years. Could Xia Fei be a language genius?" The bespectacled lady wondered in her heart.
"Oh my god! His average speed is 23m/s! His maximum speed is 27m/s! "Podoski exclaimed while holding the test report," Xia Fei! You've already reached the standard. You're a Primary Star Light Ability User! "
Wang Bin and the bespectacled lady revealed an expression of disbelief.
Ability Users were divided into many levels.
From the lowest Star Light Rank to Star Base Rank, Star Domain Rank, and even Star River Rank.
The higher the rank, the more attention the Ability User would enjoy in the universe. After all, the universe was a place where strength was respected.
Every rank was further divided into Primary, Intermediate, and Advanced. Xia Fei's rank had already surpassed Primary Star Light Rank and wasn't far from Intermediate Star Light Rank.
"Xia Fei, let me ask you. When did you unlock your seventh brain region? Was it natural cultivation? "Podoski asked.
"Yes, it was natural cultivation. It was yesterday. To be precise, it was last night." Xia Fei purposely bypassed the part about consuming the gene optimization fluid. It wasn't that he was intentionally hiding it, but he felt that it would be very troublesome to say that he was imprisoned in Blue Sea Star. It was better to avoid trouble.
Shock!
Extreme shock!
There was only one in ten thousand people who could rely on cultivation to unlock their seventh brain region. Furthermore, Xia Fei was able to reach Primary Star Light Rank at the same time he unlocked his seventh brain region. This was simply a genius.
Unlocking the seventh brain region and cultivating to the Star Light Rank were two completely different concepts.
Many people might have also unlocked their seventh brain region, but they were unable to cultivate to this rank in their entire lives.
Podoski and the other two were praising Xia Fei. Right at this moment, Xia Fei suddenly heard someone whispering, "Idiot!"
Xia Fei frowned and looked around. Apart from Podoski, Wang Bin, and that bespectacled lady, there was no one else.
