Seeing that the aliens had already started working, Gao Jianfei gestured that he needed to go out and take care of some things first.
After leaving the palace, Gao Jianfei arranged for the pilots outside to be stationed in the Viking Empire's city-states. He told them to wait a few days and be on standby.
King Beckenbauer of the Viking Empire felt both fear and respect for Gao Jianfei, and naturally dared not neglect the pilots.
The pilots were astonished to discover a civilization and a nation deep in the Arctic. Furthermore, Gao Jianfei's ability to easily appoint a king to this nation brought their reverence for him to its peak.
After settling the pilots in, Gao Jianfei spurred the beluga whale back to the island. He contacted the commanders of the three battlefields, as well as Zhuo Xiaowei and others, instructing them to remain inactive for ten days. Ten days later, he would return to the battlefield with secret weapons and annihilate the alien invaders! And ensure they would never set foot on Earth again!
After arranging everything, Gao Jianfei returned to the Ghost Den.
Inside the haunted house, the AI program lazily sat on the sofa, winking at Gao Jianfei. "Darling, those aliens are developing weapons for you, so I can issue you a mission... Hmm. If you can destroy three spatial portals, you will receive 100 million experience points."
"Oh?" Gao Jianfei walked over and hugged the AI program. "How come only 100 million experience points? That's so little?"
The AI program extended a slender finger and tapped Gao Jianfei's forehead. "My dear, don't be ungrateful. Since you're about to obtain the special weapon to destroy the space channel, your next task is quite simple: just go to the three battlefields and wreak havoc. 100 million experience points is a reasonable reward. Are you willing to accept this mission?"
"Haha, why would I be unwilling? Take it!" Gao Jianfei said nonchalantly.
Immediately, Gao Jianfei looked at the piles of orange ore in the ghost den... After taking away the equivalent of two standard football fields of orange ore, Gao Jianfei only had five standard football fields' worth left. However, to reach 100 exorcism points recovered daily, Gao Jianfei would need to spend about one and a half standard football fields' worth of orange ore.
There's more than enough orange ore available right now.
Gao Jianfei grabbed the hand that the intelligent program wanted to touch and laughed, "Darling, now modify the Super Ghost Device for me! I want to restore 100 Ghost Exorcism Points every day! Let's get to work!"
The AI program smiled slightly, "Okay! Darling, I know that the orange ore piled up in the ghost den is all extra. I'm happy to work for you! Can you kiss me? Hehe."
Gao Jianfei gave the AI program a wet kiss, almost suffocating it. She walked happily to the control panel and began working.
The orange ore in the ghost's den began to disappear little by little, being converted into energy by the intelligent program to modify the super ghost device.
A progress bar appeared on a virtual display screen...
"2%...4%..."
Chapter 615 Turning You All into Superpowered Individuals
Aside from the orange ore used to create the weapon that destroyed the space passage, Gao Jianfei consumed a massive amount of orange ore to modify the Super Ghost Device, increasing the daily recovery rate of his Exorcism Points. Once this modification is complete, Gao Jianfei's daily Exorcism Points will recover at an unprecedented rate of one million! This is terrifying, allowing Gao Jianfei to quickly assemble a large number of high-level ghosts! For example, after upgrading to a level 6 Exorcist, Gao Jianfei hadn't yet assembled a single level 6 ghost! In fact, Gao Jianfei's current Exorcism Points have already recovered to over one million, enough to create a level 6 ghost slightly stronger than Fu Hongxue. However, Gao Jianfei chose to remain still. Since he's currently modifying and upgrading the daily Exorcism Point recovery, Gao Jianfei has no reason to panic. He plans to wait until the modification is complete before making any moves. It's important to know that assembling a strong level 6 ghost requires ten million Exorcism Points. If the exorcism points can be restored at a rate of one million points per day, then Gao Jianfei will only need 20 days to defeat a ghost with a martial arts strength of level 6.
"How long will it take to complete this modification of the Ghost Instrument?" Gao Jianfei asked the intelligent program as he sat on the sofa.
She was busily debugging the intelligent program at the workbench, and answered confidently, "Darling, ten days will be enough."
"Oh, I see." Gao Jianfei thought to himself, the time required to modify this Ghost Instrument was about the same as the time it took those alien friends to create the weapon that destroyed the space channel.
"Then you go ahead with your work, I'll head out first." With that, Gao Jianfei left the Ghost Den.
Gao Jianfei paced back and forth on the island, smoking a cigarette. With his alien friends and the intelligent program all busy with their own tasks, Gao Jianfei had nothing to do.
There were ten days when he was relatively free. During these ten days, Gao Jianfei didn't want to disturb the work of the intelligent program or his alien friends. However, he also didn't want to immediately throw himself into the battles of the three major battlefields.
"Am I just going to sit here and waste time? That would be a real pain in the ass," Gao Jianfei thought idly, exhaling a smoke ring. Then, a thought struck him. "Right now, I have about three and a half standard football fields' worth of orange ore left. I need to use this orange ore to do something useful. I need to make some progress in these ten days." Gao Jianfei suddenly remembered that last time, he only kept a few hundred basketball-sized pieces of orange ore, which resulted in the creation of a hundred superhumans in the base. Now, he still had a considerable amount of orange ore. Just thinking about it was terrifying. Three and a half standard football fields' worth of orange ore—if converted to basketballs, how many hundreds? Thousands? Tens of thousands? Hundreds of thousands?
"While the aliens are holding back, I should upgrade our Earth's superpowered forces again! Give them powerful superpowers so they can stand on their own!" Gao Jianfei suddenly realized.
Immediately, he took out his phone and called Zhuo Xiaobi. "Xiaobi, the situation on the three battlefields is still very stable. Those alien invaders haven't launched an attack, right?"
"Hmm. Jianfei, it seems that those aliens are starting to take our Earth's armed forces seriously. I reckon they're waiting! Because a varying number of aliens are being transported to Earth every day, they want to wait until they have a larger number of people before launching a full-scale attack on the three battlefields! Jianfei, why don't you lead us to take the initiative and wipe out the aliens on the three existing battlefields?" Zhuo Xiaobi said eagerly.
“This isn’t urgent for now,” Gao Jianfei said to Zhuo Xiaobi. “Here’s what we’ll do: Xiaobi, you immediately contact all four superhumans and have them all evacuated to the FBI’s secret base. I have something important for you to do. Yes, contact the superhumans right away and have them return to the base. Immediately! The sooner the better!”
"Okay, Jianfei." Zhuo Xiaobi was extremely capable. Hearing Gao Jianfei say this, she didn't have any doubts or questions. She agreed immediately.
After ending his call with Zhuo Xiaobi, Gao Jianfei called the scientists at the base to tell them that he was going back to the base immediately.
Having arranged everything, Gao Jianfei then commanded the beluga whale to return to the Viking Empire's city-state, allowing the pilots to take off directly from the Arctic and fly to New York City in the United States.
After the plane arrived in the United States, Gao Jianfei skillfully used a secret elevator under a villa to descend and take the subway into the base.
Inside the base, numerous scientists naturally lined the path to welcome him. Gao Jianfei's women—Li Yun, Song Ying, Zheng Cuiyun, Nie Xiaoxia, and others—excitedly ran out to embrace him warmly, pouring out their longing. Chen Yaohui, Yamaguchi Haruko, and their friends were also extremely excited to see Gao Jianfei return. Gao Jianfei told his women and friends to return to the base hotel to wait, promising to join them for dinner and drinks after he finished his business. In addition, hundreds of superhumans followed behind. These superhumans were primarily tasked with protecting the scientists at the base and did not participate in direct combat with the aliens. The main reason, of course, was that these superhumans were not of high level; if they went to the battlefield, they would likely become cannon fodder.
The superhumans, seeing Gao Jianfei return to the base, all shouted. "Mr. Gao, please let us join the war! We want to kill those aliens with our own hands! Please let us join the war! Our homeland is in dire straits, and we want to drive away those evil aliens!"
Upon hearing that the hundred other ability users who participated in the battle had followed Gao Jianfei, achieved meritorious service, and defended the position without suffering any casualties, these people were all eager to try their luck and join Gao Jianfei in the battle.
"Everyone, please be quiet. I've returned to the base to discuss our participation in the war," Gao Jianfei said casually to the excited group of superhumans. Then, he beckoned a group of top scientists to a meeting room in the base.
In the conference room, the scientists reported some of their research findings to Gao Jianfei. During this period, the scientists had primarily focused on developing heavy weapons specifically designed to target those aliens.
They have developed special bullets and hand grenades, and are currently conducting research and improvement on some rockets, cannons, and even missiles.
Of course, the mutated animals, genetically modified humans, genetically enhanced humans, and artificial humans researched at the base can join the battle at any time. However, their combat power is too low, and Gao Jianfei does not plan to let them participate in the battle.
Gao Jianfei thought for a moment, then asked, "Everyone, orange ore can enhance the strength and level of ability users, right?"
“Yes,” a more authoritative scientist stood up and said. “Mr. Gao, orange ore should be an extremely high-grade energy ore in this universe. Its value is unparalleled and cannot be measured in money. Therefore, as long as there is enough orange ore, it can even enhance the strength of superhumans without limit.”
Gao Jianfei nodded. "Then, I'd like to ask, approximately how much orange ore is needed to forcibly elevate a superhuman to a high-level purple-type superhuman?"
"Well... Mr. Gao, let me put it this way. If a superhuman has good talent and potential, then at most only one orange ore the size of a basketball is needed to make them a purple-type superhuman. For example, the hundred purple-type superhumans you took out to participate in the battle each used one orange ore the size of a basketball to successfully advance. Then, superhumans with poor talent and potential, and whose level is already low, will need more orange ore, such as two, three, or even four the size of basketballs. Of course, it will never exceed five."
"good."
Gao Jianfei snapped his fingers. "Now, I have a task for you brilliant doctors. Please immediately test the potential and talent of the low-level ability users remaining at the base, and calculate how much orange ore is needed to turn them into strong purple-type ability users. Please do this right away. I hope to have accurate data after dinner."
"No problem, dear Mr. Gao. We only need to conduct some EEG tests, ECG tests, and blood tests to get the results you want." Several scientists immediately left the conference room, all with serious expressions on their faces.
Gao Jianfei did not immediately adjourn the meeting. He continued, "I've heard that extracting the blood of people with superpowers can modify ordinary people, giving them superpowers. Is that true?"
A scientist nodded. "Yes, Mr. Takai. Without orange ore, the success rate of this experiment to grant ordinary people superpowers is about 45%. However, with orange ore, it can reach 100%."
"Great! Excellent!" Gao Jianfei's eyes lit up. Immediately, he retrieved a hundred orange ore stones, each the size of a basketball, from the Ghost Den and piled them on his desk. "Currently, there are about a few dozen ordinary people I want to help become superhumans. Do you think these orange ore stones are enough?"
"Ah? It's orange ore! It really is orange ore! So much of it!" The scientists' eyes lit up when they saw the precious orange ore!
"Yes, it's possible! Oh, dear Mr. Gao, so much orange ore is enough to allow an ordinary person to safely and 100% become a superhuman by injecting their blood!" a scientist said with great certainty.
"That's great!" Gao Jianfei slapped the table.
Having orange ore is great! It can help Gao Jianfei accomplish some of the things he's always dreamed of!
Make your woman and friends superhumans! Give them the ability to survive and protect themselves in this world!
Immediately, Gao Jianfei called Song Ying directly. "Xiao Ying, I'm in the main conference room at the base right now. Have the soldiers drive you over immediately! Right now! Have Sister Li Yun, Cuiyun, Xiaoxia, Yamaguchi-kun, Yaohui, and the others all come over together!"
“Okay, Jianfei. We’re waiting for you at the hotel. We didn’t expect you to ask us to come over. Okay, we’ll be there in ten minutes at most,” Song Ying said eagerly.
After hanging up the phone, Gao Jianfei's eyes gleamed with eager anticipation. He directly addressed the scientists, "Alright, now draw blood from 50 ability users for me. Remember, it must be a relatively strong type of ability, not a weak one. Tell the ability users whose blood is drawn that I will compensate them double."
"Yes, Mr. Gao, no problem. All the superhumans are your followers, and they will not disobey you in the slightest." Several scientists solemnly left the conference room.
Shortly after, Song Ying and the others entered the conference room.
Song Ying, Li Yun, Zheng Cuiyun, Nie Xiaoxia, Li Yun's four young female junior sisters, Chen Yaohui, Yamaguchi Harumi, and Kagawa Masahiro—a total of 11 people—are all important figures in Gao Jianfei's life. His women, his friends.
"Jianfei, you called us here for a meeting?" The young woman, Li Yun, gave Gao Jianfei a charming and affectionate look. This woman already belonged to Gao Jianfei, body and soul. Having not seen him for many days, her longing for him was overwhelming.
Song Ying couldn't help but come over and sit next to Gao Jianfei, her attitude very intimate.
"Jianfei-kun, thank you for eliminating so many aliens on the Japanese battlefield!" Kagawa Masahiro and Yamaguchi Harumitsu bowed to Gao Jianfei together.
"I called you here because I have something very important to do." Gao Jianfei didn't explain beforehand, but directly brought out the ten people from the special room in the Ghost Den.
Chen Xian, Qin Leshi, Yan Kui, Xiao Xiao, Fei Long, Fei Long's wife, Tang Bao, father, mother, aunt.
"Jianfei, where...where is this place?" Chen Xian asked timidly, rushed over and gently hugged Gao Jianfei, then turned her head and greeted Song Ying in a friendly manner, "Miss Ying, hello."
Song Ying felt a pang of jealousy, but she greatly admired Chen Xian, a woman who was willing to give up everything for the man she loved. So she smiled kindly and warmly and said, "Sister-in-law, it's been a long time."
Everyone gathered together, exchanging pleasantries and chatting.
Soon, several scientists returned to the conference room with 50 glass test tubes containing the blood of the superhumans.
Gao Jianfei stood up abruptly and instructed the scientists, "These dozens of people are important people in my life—my family, women, and friends. Now, I trouble you scientists to inject the blood of these superhumans into their bodies, along with the orange ore, so that they can safely acquire their superhuman abilities! I don't want to see this experiment fail. I don't want any casualties. Can you do that?"
"Don't worry, Mr. Gao. With so much orange ore, it's enough to awaken superpowers in 50 ordinary people. You only have about 20 people, so there's absolutely no problem. The experiment will be very safe!" a leading scientist said cautiously.
"Okay! Let's begin the experiment immediately." Gao Jianfei nodded. Then, he announced to his family, women, and friends, "Listen, everyone, we're about to conduct an experiment that will awaken you from ordinary people into superhumans."
"Here are the blood samples of 50 different types of superhumans. You can choose the superhuman ability you're interested in and have your blood injected. Heh heh, I'm going to turn you all into superhumans!" (To be continued)
Chapter 616 Successive Awakenings!
"What? Jianfei! Turning us into superhumans? What does that mean?"
Gao Jianfei's family and friends immediately showed great confusion and panic! Especially Chen Xian, her parents, aunt, and others, who had been protected by Gao Jianfei in his Ghost Nest space. This was their first time at this base. Seeing so many scientists and the specimens and scientific instruments displayed in the conference room was already bewildering. Now, hearing Gao Jianfei say he would turn them into superhumans, they were completely stunned! Especially her parents, aunt, and even Tang Yao, whose education levels weren't very high, didn't understand the concept of superhumans. Only Chen Xian and Feilong's wife, who enjoyed watching movies, had seen glimpses of "superhumans" in some Hollywood films. But those were all fictional! Fantasy! Now, Gao Jianfei was actually bringing it up… In short, everyone panicked.
Facing the tense and questioning gazes of his family and friends, Gao Jianfei gave them a smile. "Would I harm you? You are important people in my life. I'm too busy protecting you to care. How could I possibly harm you? I wouldn't use you for any experiments... Alright. Don't be nervous. Come with me." With that, Gao Jianfei went over and helped his father with his wheelchair.
He whispered, "Dad, it's just a normal experiment, don't be afraid."
Trusting Gao Jianfei, everyone remained silent and followed him out of the meeting room, along with a group of scientists.
Several scientists led the way to a huge laboratory. The scientists immediately directed their assistants to begin tinkering, mixing blood samples from those with superpowers with orange ore to create a potion. One scientist approached Gao Jianfei and said, "Mr. Gao, in about an hour, we can create the Tianmei Superpower Potion, granting your family and friends superpowers." The scientist paused, then unusually cracked a joke. "This potion is precious not only because of the blood of those with superpowers, but also because of the orange ore… Hehe. If it were auctioned off, I estimate a single bottle could fetch hundreds of billions, even trillions."
Gao Jianfei shrugged. "I don't intend to mass-produce this medicine."
While the scientists and assistants were busy and stressed, Gao Jianfei was chatting with his family and friends. Chen Xian wasn't completely stupid; she had already keenly noticed that Song Ying, Li Yun, and even Zheng Cuiyun and Nie Xiaoxia all had very subtle relationships with her man, Gao Jianfei. She gave Gao Jianfei a resentful look, then quickly accepted it. "That's right. A man like Gao Jianfei has become the savior of the earth, an incredible man on Earth. So-called moral codes and etiquette no longer apply to him! He doesn't need to abide by the monogamous system. Besides, Chen Xian couldn't possibly prevent other women from falling in love with such an incredible man as Gao Jianfei."
Therefore, Chen Xian's attitude towards Song Ying, Li Yun, and others was relatively friendly.
She is a magnanimous woman who can burn herself out for her man.
Time flies when you're chatting with someone important in your life. An hour passes in the blink of an eye.
A scientist approached Gao Jianfei and said cheerfully, "Mr. Gao, the bottle-dropping ability potion has been successfully produced. You can have your family and friends come and inject it. Rest assured, there is no possibility of failure or casualties. Every injection is 100% successful."
"Okay." Gao Jianfei nodded. Then, pushing his father Gao Jin's wheelchair, he followed the scientist over and smiled at Gao Jin, "Dad, you go first for the injection. Don't worry, your son is here with you."
Looking into Gao Jianfei's confident eyes, Gao Jin felt an overwhelming sense of self-assurance and satisfaction, and laughed. "Alright! Dad will be the first to try it! Haha! It's nothing! My son is so outstanding, I trust him completely!"
The father and son arrived in front of a huge experimental table.
Next to the experimental table, there was a rocker device with 50 glass test tubes inserted into it, each gleaming with an orange sheen. Inside the test tubes was a precious orange color, almost golden!
Each test tube was labeled...
"Fire-based Abilities", "Water-based Abilities", "Ice-based Abilities", "Mind Sensing", "Magnetic Force", "Gravity", "Summoned Beasts"...
In other words, each label indicates the specific type of superpower.
Gao Jianfei laughed. "Dad, let me choose one for you!"
"Alright! Son. Anyway, your old man doesn't know anything except how to gamble. You choose for your old man, you can't go wrong!" Gao Jin patted his son's hand.
Gao Jianfei thought for a moment... His father was crippled in both legs and had also lost his left hand, making movement extremely inconvenient. He desperately wanted the ability to summon beasts. With summoned beasts, he could control them with ease, making it much easier for them to care for him than for anyone else.
Therefore, Gao Jianfei directly said to the scientist, "Inject my dad with the summon beast ability potion."
