The next morning, in the lounge of the base, we met the metahuman that Lin Xue said was an expert in defense.
It was an unremarkable young man, around 20 years old, wearing casual clothes. His face was a bit pale, and his short hair was combed neatly. He didn't seem to like to talk much, but when he saw the three of us, he just nodded and sat to the side.
Lin Xue stood up and introduced him to us. "This is Zheng Yiming, the metahuman that specializes in defense in our organization. Although he doesn't like to talk much, he is actually a very warm-hearted person."
"Hello," Zheng Yiming smiled politely and nodded.
"This is my younger brother, Lin Feng. His ability is to control compressed air to attack." A bashful looking man next to Lin Xue stood up and bowed to me and Pandora. "I'm really sorry for attacking you last time. It was my sister's idea. You can take revenge as much as you want, no need to show any mercy."
… As expected of Lin Xue's younger brother. Under his bashful appearance, he hid a black bellied heart.
"Xiao Feng, when I have time, I will beat you up." Lin Xue smiled at Lin Feng, then pointed at Qianqian and introduced, "This is Xu Qianqian. Her father is an archaeologist named Xu Feng, one of the missing members of the expedition team. She will be working with us in the future, and Zheng Yiming's main task is to ensure her safety."
"Hello," Shallow Shallow smiled at Zheng Yiming. "Although I don't know how I can help, I will definitely try my best."
"Lin Xue, you have always said that Shallow Shallow will be of help in the future. Can you tell me what she can do now? I don't want her to be in danger because of this. "
"You will know very soon. You don't have to worry about Shallow Shallow's safety. Zheng Yiming's defensive ability is not a joke."
Defensive ability? Could it withstand the Schilling Anti-Star Phase Shock Cannon head-on?
I had already decided that no matter how capable that Zheng Yiming was, I would place the protection of Shallow Shallow as my top priority in the upcoming operation. It didn't matter even if the mission failed because of this. With the help of the Schilling Expeditionary Force, there was no need for me to let Shallow Shallow take the risk herself.
"These two." Lin Xue pointed at Pandora and me and said, "They are a pair of brother and sister. They are both very strong espers."
"Arcanist?!" Zheng Yiming, who had been calm the whole time, finally looked surprised. Then, he looked at us with the same expectant eyes that Lin Xue had.
"Don't even think about it." Lin Xue waved her hand and said, "I told them about it a long time ago. Unfortunately, they firmly refused to join the organization, but they promised to help us when we need it. Just like now."
"Oh." Zheng Yiming nodded with a disappointed expression. Lin Xue continued to introduce: "This is the younger sister, Pan Lili. Her special ability is telepathy. She will be very useful in the upcoming operation."
Zheng Yiming's eyes lit up and praised: "Very good ability … Hm? Your eyes. "
"I can't see them." Pandora said calmly. Zheng Yiming suddenly said awkwardly: "Ah, sorry …"
"And this, Dragon Armor. His ability is to produce high temperature energy attacks. Moreover, he seems to have the ability to control this attack from a distance. His combat power is very strong."
"Hello, Dragon Armor." Zheng Yiming said cooperatively.
… Should I be angry?!
"Alright, alright, I won't joke around anymore." Lin Xue saw that my face was about to turn green, so she stopped while she was ahead. "His name is Chen Jun. As for why he doesn't have the same surname as his younger sister, it's because they are both orphans. They were adopted by different families when they were young. When they grew up, they finally recognized each other. Their abilities were only awakened after they recognized each other."
After the introductions were done, Lin Xue suggested: "Now that everyone knows each other, for the convenience of the operation, it's best that we familiarize ourselves with each other's abilities."
"In other words, show off our abilities?" I nodded. This was a good opportunity to see real abilities.
Shallow Shallow also became interested when she heard that they were going to show off their abilities. She shouted excitedly: "That's great! Let me broaden my horizons. I've always heard about abilities, but besides Lili's, I haven't seen any of your abilities! "
"There's a sealed training field here." Lin Xue said. "We can …"
"Wait." I interrupted Lin Xue's words. "My superpower's area of effect is rather large, can it be done outdoors?"
Of course, it had to be outdoors. Schilling's space weapons were launched directly from outer space. If we were to launch it in the training field, would I be able to pay for it if it created a hole in the base?
"That's fine. Since this is a desert, there's plenty of outdoor space."
Outside the base, the five of us and Qian Qian, who was watching the show, were ready.
"Firstly, my ability is perception." Lin Xue said. "I can accurately sense the surrounding environment and the flow of energy. Furthermore, based on my sixth sense, I can deduce what will happen in a short period of time. Of course, it's not as exaggerated as a prophecy ability. I can only deduce the probability of something happening. For example, there will be a huge gust of wind in 3 seconds. Shallow Shallow's hat will be blown off."
"Huh?" Qian Qian subconsciously pressed down the hat on her head.
3 seconds was a short period of time. Just as Shallow Shallow pressed her hat down, a gust of wind whistled past. Of course, since Shallow Shallow had already pressed her hat down, the gust of wind didn't achieve the effect Lin Xue described.
"That's how it is. I have a feeling that there will be a strong wind in three seconds, and the wind will be strong enough to blow Qian Qian's hat off. However, reality still deviates from my intuition. As for my observation ability — Qian Qian's action of pressing down on her hat consumed 0.132 kilojoules of energy. Unfortunately, I can't prove this number.
Pandora's voice came through the mental link. "It's 0.13185 kilojoules. In terms of energy perception, Lin Xue's ability has already reached the level of a normal Schilling's Explorer. Furthermore, her short term prediction ability is much stronger than her perception ability."
What an amazing ability! She's practically half a prophet!
Seeing Shallow Shallow and my shocked expression, Lin Xue smiled proudly and said, "Alright, who's next?"
"This is my ability." Pandora's voice rang out in everyone's mind at the same time. Then, she didn't say anything else.
… It really was a short display of Pandora's personality.
"My ability is Wind Blade. Yiming, come over here and cooperate with me."
Zheng Yiming nodded and stood a dozen meters away from us. Then, he nodded in our direction, indicating that he was ready.
Lin Feng took a deep breath and suddenly swung his right hand forward!
"Wind Blade!"
Several almost transparent distorted air flew towards Zheng Yiming's direction at an extremely high speed. At the same time, a light green, translucent membrane appeared in front of Zheng Yiming. The wind blades collided with the protective layer and created waves of ripples before calming down. A few wind blades that Lin Feng had purposely deflected flew past Zheng Yiming's body and directly split a sand dune a few hundred meters away in half!
Don't underestimate the attack power of these wind blades just because the sand dune is soft. You have to know that the ability of sand to consume all kinds of external forces is quite strong. A sand dune with a radius of over a hundred meters is something that even the strongest sniper rifle can't penetrate!
"It's just like shooting a movie …" Shallow Shallow looked at the stunt like scene in front of her and couldn't help but mutter to herself.
"If we're just talking about attack power, I'm not the strongest." Lin Feng smiled humbly and then said with a slightly scared expression, "In a moment, when you see Chen Jun's ability, you won't think that I'm strong …"
I smiled and took a few steps forward.
Ever since Pandora's Heavy Armored Army came to this world, the connection between me and Schilling's mother planet had been strengthened. Although it wasn't to the point where I could chat with Gaia every day, it was still possible for the 99.99999999% … of the unusable command set to have some effect.
After confirming that the connection was successful, I put on a serious expression and looked down. My body relaxed and in an instant, the air around me was …
"If you continue to act like that, we're going back." Lin Xue said indifferently.
"Amaterasu!" I shouted loudly and waved my right hand forward. At the same time, I said in my heart, "Requesting spatial support."
A dazzling white pillar of light that was a few meters thick descended from the sky with a low buzzing sound. After that, it quickly entered the sand a hundred meters in front of me.
A magma pool with a diameter of nearly ten meters …
There was a sharp intake of breath behind me.
Damn it! This is too much!
"Chen Jun … Is this your true strength?" Lin Xue's mouth twitched as she asked. There was a huge wave in her heart. 'My god, this kind of strength, is this something that can be explained by superpowers? Fortunately, I didn't really provoke him that day, if not … '
Lin Feng's face was also covered in cold sweat. He was chased for an entire day and night! (He and Lin Xue didn't expect that the one who attacked them wasn't me, but the seemingly harmless loli, Pandora.)
Zheng Yiming was also dumbfounded. He was originally confident in his defense, but now … Could he even last a second under such an attack?
The simple-minded Xu Qianqian was the only one who didn't realize how ridiculous this power was. She looked at me with adoration.
"This … Actually, there are many limitations to this level of attack," I explained with a dry smile. "Firstly, it consumes a lot of energy, so I can't use it continuously. Also, it's hard to control the range. Every time I use it, I need to charge for a long time. Just like when I was posing …"
"Oh — —" Everyone nodded. It seemed like they finally felt better.
Lin Xue seemed to have taken on the role of party leader from the start. After everyone recovered from the scene, she said loudly, "Alright, now that everyone has a certain level of understanding of each other, does anyone have any questions?"
I looked around me.
Pandora used telepathy to transmit information. Lin Xue used detection and prediction to scout the map. Zheng Yiming used his defense to be the main tank of the team. Lin Feng and I were the main DPS of the team. In addition, there was Shallow Shallow, the key NPC. Yup …
"Lin Xue," I raised my hand and said, "We still lack a healer!"
