In the following days, after Sandora's careful analysis and Jingle's thorough examination, we finally understood the situation of Shallow Shallow and her sister.
The radiation from the crystal in the Schilling's nest had indeed stimulated Shallow Shallow and her sister's human potential, allowing them to obtain powerful abilities. However, as their physical attributes were too low when they were exposed to the radiation, the radiation had brought about certain negative effects. The most obvious effect was the drastic change in their personalities when they used their abilities.
When the sister's ability was activated, she would become very vengeful and black-bellied, even though she didn't have any malicious intentions.
When Shallow Shallow's ability was activated, she would become cold and callous. Even though she still remembered the people related to her, and it seemed that her feelings for the people around her hadn't disappeared, her way of doing things would change drastically.
Although this change made me feel a little uneasy, it was worth rejoicing that their nature wouldn't change because of this, and they would quickly return to normal after the ability ends.
In the living room of the villa, Sandora and I were discussing the principle of the radiation mutation and whether it could be used. Next to me, my sister was blushing and apologizing to Lin Xue in a low voice. After deactivating her ability, she completely remembered how she had tortured Lin Xue. Lin Xue still had a shocked expression as she muttered, "Seven and a half weeks …" Words like that. Jingle hovered next to Lin Xue's head and gently patted her head. She comforted her like an adult, "There's still 20 meters per second …"
… Is that really comforting?
Shallow Shallow, who had completely returned to normal, looked even more embarrassed than her sister. Her personality had changed completely. Basically, everyone who tried to enter the room to talk to her was chased out by her. Asida and Asidora had tried to teleport into her room, but they were hit by Shallow Shallow's [Time Shock]. Now, they were still looking for people in the base to ask for the time …
Sandora quickly gobbled up the snacks on the table and mumbled, "It seems that the carbon-based lifeforms are really magical. They could mutate for such an inexplicable reason … Chen Jun, I want to eat that!"
As I placed a plate of snacks in front of Sandora, I cursed in my mind. Only you think that radiation mutation is inexplicable? Basically, half of the people on Earth know that any kind of radiation can induce cell mutation …
Pandora, who had been quietly staying in my embrace, suddenly nodded and said, "Mutation caused by radiation is indeed a very strange thing …"
I suddenly realized that in such a big base, there were only a few people who could understand the unique physiology of carbon-based lifeforms …
Also, why was Pandora in my arms?
"Because I bumped into Big Brother. As compensation, I want to let Big Brother hug me. Queen Sandora … Big Sister said that it would make Big Brother happy."
That was how Pandora explained it. I really didn't know who was the one compensating who …
Also, I had to investigate what kind of nonsense Sandora had been feeding this little guy every day!
"Let's not talk about this first. What I want to know is, have you investigated the reason behind the radiation mutation of Shallow Shallow and Big Sister?"
Sandora revealed a bright smile and took out a huge book from behind her as if she was asking for praise. She waved it in front of me and said, "In fact, Bubble has already completed the analysis of the mutation of Shallow Shallow and Big Sister. She has also summarized a rather complete report. I have already asked her to print out the report!"
I looked at the huge book in Sandora's hand that could be used as a brick and said with a trembling voice, "That much?"
"Of course not that much!"
Sandora happily placed the huge book that could be used as a weapon in my hand. Just as I let out a sigh of relief, she said something even more terrifying, "This is just a table of contents!"
Just how complete was this report?
My hands trembled as I flipped open the big book. Speechlessly, I looked at the dense titles on it, from the origin of carbon-based life to quantum interference theory. Then, I decisively made the wisest choice: I raised my hand and threw it away.
"There are too few examples to analyze."
Lin Xue, who had finally recovered from the shock of seven and a half weeks, suddenly said.
"What we know now is that my ability has been greatly strengthened under the radiation. Shallow Shallow and Big Sister Chen Qian have obtained new abilities. Other than that, we have no other examples to analyze."
Lin Xue's words made a lot of sense. Actually, Sandora and I had already thought of this point, but where could we find more examples?
Other than Lin Xue, Qian Qian and my sister, the only other human here was me. However, my mental power had already reached a terrifying level. No matter how strong the crystal's radiation was, it wouldn't be able to affect me. Tricking Mu Luo and the other two over was also an option. However, their resistance to radiation would definitely be very high. Not to mention whether or not they would be affected, whether or not they would be able to trick these old monsters who had lived for hundreds of years was also a problem.
"How about …" Sandora tapped her lips with her index finger and said, "We trick those hot-blooded members of the Fire Blade mercenary group over?"
If it wasn't for Sandora's reminder, I would have almost forgotten about their existence!
The mercenary group that was rescued by Pandora was still stationed in the valley, right next to our base. However, we didn't allow those fanatical admirers of Pandora to enter the base. Ever since they witnessed the miraculous construction of the base and the terrifying strength of the Schilling army, they became much more well-behaved. At the very least, they wouldn't pester Pandora anymore. This directly caused me to almost forget about this small mercenary group.
Lake felt that he was under a lot of pressure.
Recently, the situation of the mercenary group had worsened. Even the smallest employer wasn't willing to spend their money on this small mercenary group that was on the verge of disbandment. Their strength was even weaker than a team of ordinary soldiers. Being forced to station in this remote valley by their competitors made them even more of a joke in the mercenary world. Just yesterday, the only mage in the group, Catherine, also mentioned the idea of going home. Although Lake knew that it wasn't her fault, he still felt very depressed.
Now, he had already made up his mind to announce the disbandment of the mercenary group tonight.
Therefore, when his subordinates came in to report that a warrior from the mysterious fortress had come to visit, he replied almost without thinking, "Let him go. We no longer accept commissions."
There was another sentence that he didn't say. With the mercenary group's current strength, even if they accepted the commission, it was almost impossible for them to complete it.
However, in the next second, Laker suddenly realized something. 'That fortress!'
In the strange fortress that was built overnight next to their base, there were countless mysterious strong people. No one knew how they appeared out of thin air, but everyone in the mercenary group knew that they were very powerful. Extremely powerful!
Magical creatures that could instantly destroy a careful human town turned into ashes in front of the little girl named Pandora without even a chance to fight back!
At first, Lake tried to make the powerful little girl accept his mercenary group and become her followers. Although there was an element of gratitude in it, it was more of a hope that he could give his brothers a bright future. However, after he saw more powerful companions and the mysterious fortress, he completely dispelled his fantasies.
From the way the other party fought and the architectural style that was completely different from this world, Lake could vaguely guess that the other party wasn't a strong person in this world. It was more likely that they were a very powerful foreign race that didn't belong to the human race.
A foreign race of unknown origin was enough to make most people retreat. However, if the other party took the initiative to look for him … Lake would never give up any hope, no matter how faint it was!
