However, he hesitated slightly before nodding: "Okay, I can get this kind of list. I promise you."
Shi Gaofei finally smiled, and this time his smile was more genuine: "Thank you."
Old Xu curled his lip. Just then, the phone in front of him rang. He picked it up, listened for a few moments, his expression turned strange, and he casually grunted in response. Then he put the phone down and glanced at Shi Gaofei: "It seems trouble has already arisen with your arrival. Damn it, Shi Gaofei, someone already knows you're here!"
Shi Gaofei frowned: "Who?"
"Someone wants to see you, old friend." Old Xu smiled helplessly, rubbing his temples as if he had a terrible headache.
"Hey, I'm telling you, when old friends meet, there's no need to put on a long face, is there?"
Old Tian looked at Shi Gaofei walking briskly and smiled happily: "It always seems strange to see you not in a wheelchair."
Shi Gaofei rolled his eyes: "Oh? How did you find me?"
"Come on, I noticed you were spying on me at the airport, but I was too lazy to say hello." Old Tian smiled broadly, but his eyes revealed a cunning look. "However, I know that you came here either to see me or to see that guy surnamed Xu, but it's more likely that you're looking for him."
"Why?"
“Because you don’t trust me.” Old Tian’s tone was strange: “I am a superhuman, and your habits are very strange: you don’t trust any superhumans, you only trust ordinary people.”
"Because most people with superpowers don't consider themselves human!" Shi Gaofei's answer was curt.
Old Xu remained seated: "Do you two always start arguing the moment you meet?"
Old Tian laughed heartily, strode into the study and sat down. He even patted Suo Suo's shoulder generously: "Long time no see."
Suo Suo grunted in response, her expression indifferent: "Uncle Tian."
"Haha, following this troublesome mad scientist must have been tough." Old Tian smiled broadly, completely ignoring Shi Gaofei's eye-rolling next to him.
"Since you think I'm a nuisance, why did you even come looking for me? You might as well just pretend you didn't see me, like you did at the airport." Shi Gaofei shrugged.
"We're in trouble, and it's a huge problem." Old Tian gestured with his hands, his tone very serious: "A very, very, very big problem."
He paused, then sighed: "To put it simply, that old madman Prince came to T City, stirred up trouble, and caused a brawl between four S-class guys. In the end, he turned an already dangerous kid into a super dangerous madman. And this mad kid has now caused a huge disaster, which is not the worst part. The problem is that the kid has now become a nuclear bomb that could explode at any time, so we have to find a way to bring him back."
Shi Gaofei's eyelids twitched.
Old Tian glanced at Shi Gaofei, then at Old Man Xu, somewhat surprised: "Hey, don't you guys watch the news?"
Old Xu and Shi Gaofei exchanged a glance: "News?"
Old Tian slapped his forehead: "Damn it, I forgot about you two old guys. You obviously don't have the habit of going online to read gossip. Sigh, you're missing the soul of gossip."
With that, he rushed to Old Xu's desk, turned on the computer, and quickly logged onto a website: "See for yourself!"
When the sensational feature was opened, Shi Gaofei, who had been somewhat impatient, only glanced at it and saw a blurry outline of Chen Xiao flying in the sky with his wings spread. Then Shi Gaofei's expression changed!
"Is this Prince?"
"Are you blind!" Old Tian yelled. "That birdman in Prince has white wings, and he's lying in my house pretending to be dead right now! Look again!!"
After taking a closer look, Shi Gaofei's expression suddenly changed. He finally realized something, and he jumped up abruptly as if he had been slashed, staring at Lao Tian: "You! Could this be that kid Chen Xiao?!"
"Unfortunately, it must be him." Old Tian took a breath. "I don't know exactly what happened. Right now, I only have three relatively accurate pieces of information to refer to: First, this kid has become very, very strong. Everyone knows how strong Prince is, but he's lying in my house now, with most of his bones broken. When I found him, he only had one breath left, no, I should say, only half a breath left! He told me that it was Chen Xiao who injured him, and it was a direct, head-on blow! It only took one strike!"
Upon hearing this, Shi Gaofei's face turned pale instantly, and even Old Man Xu nearly fell off his chair.
"Prince?! Damn it! He's an S-rank player recognized by the league."
"I haven't finished yet." Old Tian continued with a worried expression, "The second piece of news, if I'm not mistaken, is that Chen Xiao may have absorbed the blood of four S-rank individuals and evolved—four S-rank individuals!"
Shi Gaofei's face had turned ashen, and he seemed to be spitting out a sentence through clenched teeth: "Are you sure?"
Old Tian sighed. How could he not be sure? That Prince, that bastard lunatic, what a mess he'd made!
“Third,” Lao Tian looked at Shi Gaofei and hesitated for a moment, “Do you want me to help you? You look a little unsteady.”
"What's the third one?" Shi Gaofei waved his hand.
"Thirdly, he might have lost consciousness by now, because he didn't come back. He inexplicably went to Japan and caused such a huge scene." Old Tian pointed to the Sasebo naval port on the screen, which had become a sea of fire and ruins.
Old Tian looked a little embarrassed: "I think you have the most detailed information about his body structure and blood, so perhaps you have a way to deal with him? If I'm not mistaken, he probably evolved into a bloodthirsty being after obtaining the blood of a few of us."
“Bloodthirsty Evolution is a rare superpower. According to the latest published data, none of the existing superpowered humans possess this ability.” Shi Gaofei’s eyes flashed. “However, you should know that evolution is not unique to humans. Many other creatures also possess special abilities. At least, as far as I know, the club has been working on various bio-beasts, trying to use other creatures to replicate or recreate some superpowers that have now disappeared, including ‘Bloodthirsty Evolution’.”
This is the basement of Lao Tian's auto repair shop on the unfinished street.
The place was set up like a laboratory, except that things were piled up in a very messy way, and there was a pile of broken parts in the corner.
Everyone on the abandoned street gathered in this basement.
Shi Gaofei looked very depressed. On a rusty table in front of him were several test tubes: "Based on my research on the blood samples I took from Chen Xiao's body, because it was not long ago, I did not get many research results. However, I have reached a few certain conclusions. In addition to the mutation that occurred after he was infected by the purification drug, which allows him to devour the DNA of other ability users' cells and self-replicate, in other words, he can obtain DNA by devouring the blood or other bodily fluids of other ability users, and thus replicate and possess the abilities of other ability users. This ability, as it stands, is unique and is unique to Chen Xiao."
Shi Gaofei slowly recounted his story, and Lao Tian, sitting to the side, couldn't help but say, "We already know that, so tell me the key point."
Shi Gaofei glared at Lao Tian, seemingly very unhappy that he had been interrupted: "Shut up!"
He coughed and said, "At the same time, I obtained Chen Xiao's blood sample, and according to his various tests, the ability that surprised me the most among his current superpowers is 'bloodthirsty evolution'."
He then explained, "Bloodthirsty Evolution and Chen Xiao's ability to copy other ability users are different. If it were simply copying the abilities of other ability users, it would only increase the 'types' of Chen Xiao's abilities, but his own energy value would not change. On the contrary, with his own energy value remaining unchanged, the more types of abilities he knows, the more diluted the level of each of his abilities will be! In other words, the more types he knows, the lower the level of each ability will be, which is his weakness."
At this point, Shi Gaofei's tone changed: "However, after possessing the ability of 'Bloodthirsty Evolution,' this weakness of his no longer exists! From this perspective, he should thank the bio-beast he killed!!! And Bloodthirsty Evolution itself does not absorb the types and kinds of other people's superpowers, but directly increases 'energy value' through this method."
“I think I understand what you mean.” Old Tian chuckled. “I discussed this issue with that kid Chen Xiao before. His ability to devour others is like the ‘Xiao Wuxiang Gong’ which can simulate all kinds of martial arts moves, while Blood Devouring Evolution is like the ‘Bei Ming Divine Skill’ which can absorb other people’s internal energy. That’s roughly the idea.”
"Shut up!" Shi Gaofei seemed to have a grudge against Old Tian: "Should I let you speak?"
