Doomsday: Humanity shrinks 100 times

Chapter 111 Key Capabilities
Lu Yuning untied the ropes on the two people, then pointed to the chairs opposite the table and motioned them to sit down.

The two of them were stunned for a long time. Finally, Xia Fei sat down first, while Liu Rui was a little embarrassed.

The two sat down, looked at the cup full of water on the table, and swallowed.

"do not care"

Xia Fei said this, then picked up the cup and drank it all.

Seeing him like this, Liu Rui also picked up the cup and drank it.

"Ah, it's delicious." Xia Fei sipped his lips, still unsatisfied.

Lu Yuning put the kettle on the table and motioned for the two to help themselves.

The two of them were no longer polite and drank a few more glasses.

"Brother, just ask me if you have any questions." Xia Fei looked at Lu Yuning with tears in his eyes.

Liu Rui lowered his head, looking thoughtful.

Lu Yuning smiled and said, "Then continue. I am somewhat interested in your special ability called Yingying."

"Oh oh oh, this. Um. I don't quite understand her ability." Xia Fei seemed a little confused, hesitating for a long time without explaining clearly.

"Let me tell you"

Lu Yuning was stunned and turned his gaze to Liu Rui.

"Han Yingying" Liu Rui first said a name.

Lu Yuning nodded.

"Her ability... Let's use this kettle as an example. Hmm... let's assume this kettle is you, and the water inside represents your ability. Let's also assume these two cups are two people. Now I pour the water into the two cups..."

Lu Yuning's expression gradually changed from confusion to shock. He had realized what Liu Rui meant.

"Finally, these two people, no, three people, also possessed the same ability, just a weakened version. We call this ability... Weakened Synergy."

Liu Rui pointed to the three containers in front of him, and finally stated the conclusion that Lu Yuning had vaguely guessed.

Lu Yuning's expression changed and she was shocked. No wonder Xinghuo would turn against them for this ability.

I believe that any organization with a little bit of development awareness will understand the significance of this capability.

This is also a problem that Lu Yuning has been troubled by recently. With the construction of the shelter, he has become more and more aware of the limitations of his special abilities in productivity.

However, this upper limit is himself. In other words, it is difficult for others to interfere with his productivity. Even with more manpower, the problem of productivity cannot be solved in a real sense.

Because the shrunken humans have a fatal perceptual limitation and their strength is too small, it is difficult for them to carry out creative work without superpowers.

For example, even if there are 10,000 ordinary people here at the tree hole, all of them can be put into the construction of the previous water supply system.

In fact, these 10,000 people can hardly provide any effective contribution to this kind of work that is beyond their capabilities. The processing of these materials is a lock that limits human capabilities.

This is also why Lu Yuning valued Xu Ting's abilities so much before. Although she can also provide some auxiliary effects to Lu Yuning, the most important thing is that she can become a catalyst for teamwork.

This is a characteristic that Lu Yuning cannot achieve!
The appearance of Han Yingying should have been something to be excited about, but now it was like a bucket of cold water poured on Lu Yuning's head.

His expression changed, he took a deep breath, and calmed himself down: "She..."

"If we can rescue her, we are willing to join you."

Before Lu Yuning could finish her words, she was interrupted by Liu Rui in front of her.

It has to be said that Liu Rui is a person who is very good at observing people's words and expressions, and is obviously much more careful than Xia Fei.

If the two of them were not really thirsty, it would be difficult for them to fall into Liu Rui's trap given his personality.

Obviously, he also guessed his thoughts from Lu Yuning's constantly changing expressions.

"Although I really want to, but... we know nothing about Xinghuo right now." Having said that, Lu Yuning had nothing to hide and decided to be honest.

"I know their exact location. It's just an outpost. Yingying is probably still there." Liu Rui said affirmatively.

"Do they have outposts? Where exactly is it?"

……A few minutes later.

In the girls dormitory.

"That's about it. I've asked everything I could, and the location is clear. It's said there are about five people here, but their specific abilities are unclear."

Lu Yuning looked at Zhang Xinyue and the others and recounted in detail the situation they had learned from the previous communication.

"What do you mean?"

"First of all, this information should be true. Judging from the attitudes of those two people and their previous behavior, this incident must have happened. Then, my opinion... is more inclined to rescue."

Lu Yuning spoke concisely and to the point.

Several people nodded, not surprised.

Everyone was aware of the team's current troubles and could roughly guess Lu Yuning's decision.

More importantly, if this person with this ability is absorbed by Starfire, it will be a loss for them.

Judging from the current situation, as time goes by, a head-on encounter with Xinghuo is only a matter of time.

The solution is to either abandon all current reserves and leave here, find a new shelter before winter, and face new unknown risks.

Otherwise, they must develop rapidly and use absolute technological advantages to ensure their voice, and Han Yingying is the key to this.

Therefore, once they are fully prepared, they will definitely want to recruit people under their command.

"Are you sure?"

"I can't say for sure, but... I'm afraid we can't do it on our own."

"Do you mean to cooperate with them?" Zhang Xinyue pointed at the two people in the boys' dormitory opposite.

At this time, Lu Yuning did not take any measures and directly placed the two of them in the men's dormitory opposite. It was obvious that he gave them enough respect. Since they planned to cooperate, they had to show enough sincerity.

Of course, it is also a test for them. Even if they really intend to escape, Zhang Xinyue will discover it in advance.

Lu Yuning nodded: "Yeah, both of their abilities are quite interesting."

Seeing everyone's curious gazes, he continued, "Xia Fei's ability is relatively easy to understand. Simply put, it's a mimicry ability, similar to insects like leaf katydids, except that it's much more powerful."

"Leaf Katydid?"

"Yes, a kind of insect that lives in the rainforest. They are born with the ability to mimic, hiding themselves in the shape of leaves to avoid attacks from natural enemies. Xia Fei's ability is similar to this, allowing him to quickly blend his body with the surrounding environment. And more importantly, he can even simulate smells!"

Everyone was stunned.

"No wonder I see them all the time." Zhang Xinyue finally understood.

She finally understood why she could clearly detect it through echo but could never see it visually.

"That's not right. Do these two people have the same ability?" Wu Xiao suddenly thought of a question.

"This is the interesting point, these two people are simply a perfect match." Lu Yuning looked a little strange.

Hearing Lu Yuning say this, everyone looked curious and waited for him to continue.

"Liu Rui's ability is somewhat similar to companionship."

"Companion? Parasitic?"

Lu Yuning shook his head: "It's not parasitism. His ability is to select a certain creature and copy its biological characteristics onto himself, and he can also feed his energy back to the creature."

Lu Yuning glanced at the puzzled faces of the crowd and continued to explain, "For example, he chose Xia Fei as his companion. When Xia Fei's mimicry ability is activated, he will also change his form. He can also bestow his own spiritual attributes on Xia Fei. In theory, the two of them can activate their abilities continuously!"

Everyone gradually understood what was happening, and then they all had some incredible expressions.

"Then these two people are walking sideways in the end of the world."

"That's the theory, but some creatures rely on more than just vision and smell to identify other creatures. Xinyue's ability is their nemesis. Most importantly, they don't have much combat ability, but they're perfect as explorers."
