Gao Qi's plan was to first sift through the Hellfire and find those with potential. However, this wasn't to train his own team, but to do research.
A complete stranger with a language barrier, under such circumstances, no matter how strong he was, it was impossible for him to quickly and thoroughly control a group of hundreds of people.
So if Gao Qi wanted to completely control the Hellfire, he first needed to find the right people. Although Chuck was a smart person who knew how to judge the situation, he couldn't help Gao Qi take away the power that originally belonged to him.
Gao Qi wasn't in a hurry now. He planned to use half a year to slowly but thoroughly control this group of robbers who weren't that fierce. After that, he would consider using these people to achieve his goal.
Gao Qi didn't have high hopes for these selected people. With Tom as a precedent, Gao Qi simply couldn't trust these people who couldn't communicate directly.
And this Lori in front of him was Gao Qi's biggest surprise in the Hellfire so far.
A person who could naturally awaken at any time, this was too precious for Gao Qi. As long as he had this sample, Gao Qi would be able to thoroughly understand how an ability user awakened naturally. It was very likely that he would be able to thoroughly understand the entire process of an ability user awakening from Lori.
Wang Ke was still sifting through the candidates, but Gao Qi couldn't wait to call Lori to his side.
"You're called Lori?"
Lori raised her head and looked at Gao Qi, then looked at Anna who translated for Gao Qi. She then lowered her head and said with a wooden face, "Yes."
A little difficult to communicate with. Gao Qi rubbed his chin and pondered for a moment. Then, with a gentle face, he said, "Don't be afraid, and don't be nervous. Just answer whatever I ask honestly."
Anna finished for Gao Qi, but Lori didn't say a word. Gao Qi waited for a moment. When he felt that Lori wouldn't speak, he said, "Do you feel a special feeling towards something around you? It's like you're very close to it, or you don't need to touch it to feel the existence of this object?"
Gao Qi also had an ability, although it was extremely weak, so much so that he didn't treat himself as an ability user.
However, Gao Qi could indeed control the wind and temperature. When he used his ability, he felt like he was putting his hand into water, and then he could splash the water out with his hand.
Ability users controlled matter through their thoughts, and didn't need to touch the object. However, it was just like how a person soaked in water could naturally feel the existence of the water.
Lori was silent for a moment, and then he shook his head.
Was he unwilling to answer, or did he really not feel anything? Gao Qi felt that Lori was unwilling to answer because his spiritual power was so high. It was impossible that he didn't feel anything strange at all.
"You can awaken at any time, but you can succeed or fail. If you fail, you'll be a mutant, but I can guarantee that your awakening will succeed. Think carefully."
Anna translated Gao Qi's words. After a moment of expressionless thought, Lori finally nodded gently. Then, he said in a low voice, "Sometimes, I feel like my mind is blank. I feel like … I belong to the earth, I'm a part of the earth. This feeling appears the most, but sometimes, when I pick up a tool, I feel that the tool loses its weight, as if the tool is a part of my body. Another time, I accidentally touched an oil lamp, and the oil spilled. My bedside caught on fire, and I wiped it with my hand. Then, my hand caught on fire, but I didn't feel hot. I only felt that when the fire burned on my hand … it was very comfortable."
Gao Qi nodded as he listened. "Ask him when he started to feel this way."
Lori continued to lower his head. "Not long, about a week."
Gao Qi was a little surprised. "Only a week? Oh, I understand. "
While Gao Qi and Lori were talking, Wang Ke couldn't help but stop what he was doing and turn to look at Gao Qi.
Turning the uncontrollable into controllable, and turning the unpredictable into predictable, was what Gao Qi wanted to accomplish the most.
Gao Qi had seen awakenings a few times. Some succeeded, but many failed. The only thing he could be sure of was that the awakening process of Adepts was very strange, and there was no pattern to it. In this regard, Adepts were completely different from magic.
People who could become magicians were also one in ten thousand, but people with elemental affinity wouldn't face any risks even if they couldn't become magicians.
Tom's spiritual power was very strong, and there were signs of awakening a long time ago. However, with Gao Qi's help, he successfully awakened and became a C-level Adept.
However, Gao Qi still remembered Liu Han. She was the classmate who had suddenly awakened when they were shooting at the shooting range. Although her ability was a little strange, she had awakened in an instant without any warning. Then, she had become a beginner with a superpower, not even close to the edge of Level E.
It was almost certain that the longer the awakening process, the greater the risk. However, the benefits after the awakening were also the greatest. Almost all Adepts who awakened were strong.
The shorter the awakening time, the lower the risk, but the smaller the benefits. If the awakening failed, they would be a mutant that was easy to deal with. If the awakening succeeded, they would only be low-level Adepts. Even if they gained special abilities, they would still be very weak.
Gao Qi's research on Adepts had reached a very critical point. It was also a difficult point. Once he solved this point, he would have mastered the most basic and difficult knowledge of awakening. Now, he finally had a very rare and powerful subject to observe.
Now, Gao Qi was confident that he could use a very mature ceremony to help Lori complete the awakening. He could also use this opportunity to observe how Lori completed the awakening process step by step.
Now, Gao Qi needed an assistant. While he led Lori's awakening, someone could help him summarize and analyze the process. This was because he couldn't take care of it when he was fully immersed in it.
Who was the most suitable candidate?
Niu Lidong definitely couldn't do it, and neither could Anna. Gao Qi looked at Wang Ke. Wang Ke seemed like a good candidate, but …
However, Gao Qi knew who was the most suitable assistant. Who could help him see through the messy clues and see the essence of the situation from the different appearances?
This person must be Wang Ming Yuan. Who else could it be?
A talent was a talent, and a genius was a genius. He would rather die than use Wang Ming Yuan because of his bad mouth. Gao Qi wasn't that stubborn. For the Human Emperor of this world, he would make the best use of everything and people. That was the only way to be a qualified ruler.
Gao Qi wasn't that shallow. He couldn't pinch his nose and admit that it was impossible.
Even if he had to pinch his nose and apologize, Gao Qi would only think that it was delicious.
Therefore, Gao Qi naturally said to Wang Ke, "Where is your father? I want to apologize to him and ask him to help me."
