In the apocalypse, I hoarded goods and handed over my storage space to the government.

Su Ran turned to look at Bai Lu.

Although Bai Lu was weak at this moment, Su Ran could feel that the enormous spiritual power within her body had not disappeared.

She can unleash destructive power at any time, if she so chooses.

S-level ability: Mentalist.

Awakening successful!

"How are you feeling?" Su Ran asked.

Bai Lu raised her hand and looked hesitantly at a pair of surgical scissors in the corner.

The thought just popped into my head.

Swish!

The scissors flew into the air like a silver lightning bolt, instantly piercing the wall until the handle was gone!

The doctors who were treating the wounded nearby trembled in fright.

Bai Lu was so frightened that she quickly withdrew her hand and looked at Su Ran timidly.

Li Guodong stared at the scissors stuck in the high-strength alloy wall, his Adam's apple bobbing with difficulty.

This is... the Awakened One?

"How are we going to explain this to the commander?" Li Guodong asked.

"Tell the truth."

Su Ran stood up, supporting herself on her knees, her eyes burning. "Tell the commander that the first phase of the 'God-Making Project' has been successfully verified."

"The arrival of the Red Rain can turn people into ghosts, and it can also turn people into gods."

"Bai Lu is just the first one."

A glint of light flashed in Su Ran's eyes.

The white deer has already awakened, and the same miracle may very well happen to the others in the base as well.

For example, that Xiao that kills embryos.

For example, that woman who played with fire.

Four o'clock in the morning.

Kunlun No. 1 Base has nine underground floors.

This place was originally used to test the pressure resistance data of a new type of individual soldier exoskeleton. The walls are made of half-meter-thick depleted uranium armor steel, which can theoretically withstand the frontal bombardment of a tactical missile.

Now, this place has become Bai Lu's medical examination room.

……

Look out the window.

On a high-precision industrial electronic scale, there is a solid tungsten steel ball weighing 50 kilograms.

"Let's begin."

Su Ran stood in the observation room behind the explosion-proof glass, next to Li Guodong, who looked solemn, and several veterans with gold stars on their shoulders.

In the center of the testing field, Bai Lu stood there timidly, wearing a somewhat oversized white straitjacket.

She was still clutching the half-chocolate Su Ran had given her, her fingertips turning slightly white from the force.

She looked up at Su Ran.

Su Ran nodded to her through the glass, pointed to the tungsten steel ball, and then made a "start" gesture.

Bai Lu took a deep breath, and a faint silver-gray halo instantly filled her eyes, which had just regained their clarity.

hum!

There was no airflow, no mechanical noise.

The 50-kilogram tungsten steel ball seemed to be lifted up by an invisible giant hand, floating slowly in a way that defied the laws of physics.

"1.5 meters in height, stability... perfect."

"Vascular signs are stable, heart rate 85, blood pressure 110/70, but..."

The senior expert in charge of the testing looked at the brainwave data on the screen, which was pounding wildly like an electrocardiogram, swallowed hard, and said in a trembling voice:

"The activity level of its cerebral cortex is forty times that of an average person. If it were an ordinary person, their brain would have been cooked long ago."

Beside him, Wei Jianguo, chief physicist of Longke Institute, stared intently at the monitoring tablet in his hand, his eyes bloodshot.

As a leading figure in the field of physics, his materialistic edifice has collapsed halfway since he encountered Su Ran's spatial abilities; now, his foundation is completely gone.

His hands were trembling, not from the cold, but from the shattering of his worldview once again.

"The gravitational potential energy was canceled out by some unknown force field... There was no magnetic field reaction, no thermal radiation... This is not scientific, this is simply not scientific!"

"Professor Wei, save your breath."

Su Ran spoke up, "Talking about science now is like talking about sex with a eunuch—it's unnecessary. Testing destructive power..."

The white deer was panting heavily, its eyes showing both excitement and fear.

He pressed the call button, and his voice came through the test site.

"Bai Lu, now, do you see that scrapped tank armor plate in the corner?"

It was a piece of composite armor used to test armor-piercing projectiles, with a thickness of 20 centimeters and a weight of half a ton.

"That's the doctor who gave you the injection before."

Su Ran, without batting an eye, made up a lie: "Crush it."

"The doctor who gave me the injection..."

Bai Lu's eyes changed instantly, turning fierce.

In that instant, the energy monitoring device in the observation room went into overdrive with alarms and red lights flashing wildly!

"Warning! Energy level transition! Peak energy level exceeds 3000!"

In the laboratory, the heavy armor plate suddenly made a teeth-grinding "creaking" sound.

There was no contact whatsoever.

Only the white deer stared at it.

That half-ton iron lump was like a soda can being gripped by an invisible giant hand.

distortion.

Fold.

compression.

During this process, the metal heats up rapidly due to intense molecular compression, turning a bright red!

"ah!!!"

The white deer let out a scream, and blood gushed from its nose.

boom!

The armor plate, now crumpled into a ball of scrap metal, slammed heavily onto the ground, creating a large crater that emitted wisps of smoke.

The laboratory was deathly silent.

The lieutenant general in charge of weapons development was completely unaware that his cigarette had burned his fingers.

He stared blankly at the armor plate that had been crumpled into a ball of scrap metal, then looked at the little girl wiping her nosebleed.

"How much does your mental threshold fluctuate?" Su Ran asked, turning her head.

"Peak 3800!"

The monitor's voice cracked, "And... and this doesn't seem to be her limit yet."

Su Ran nodded in satisfaction.

This is the true value of an S-rank mentalist.

The crazy "Empress" in her past life, although incredibly destructive when in a state of extreme mania, was a fighting style that hurt the enemy a thousand while also hurting herself eight hundred.

Although Bai Lu doesn't seem very bright now, she is manageable.

"Alright, everyone stop," Su Ran ordered.

The silver light in Bai Lu's eyes faded, her body swayed, and her little face turned deathly pale.

Su Ran pushed open the door and walked into the testing area, handed her the hot milk in her hand, and then took out a glucose tablet from her pocket and stuffed it into her mouth.

"Is it sweet?"

"Um……"

The white deer, with a candy in its mouth, had eyes that curved into crescent moons. "Sweet."

Li Guodong, watching this scene from outside the glass, had extremely mixed feelings.

Who would have thought that this "humanoid nuclear bomb," which could be hand-rolling armor plates just a second ago, is now behaving like a docile little hamster begging for food?

"Comrade Xiao Su."

Li Guodong pushed open the door, glanced at the scrap metal on the floor, and his eye twitched. "This combat power... if it were on the battlefield, wouldn't it mean invincible?"

"Invincible? You're dreaming."

Su Ran poured cold water on her prediction without hesitation, "She's like a glass cannon with high attack but low defense right now. A sniper bullet, if it hits before she can react, can still kill her. And..."

Su Ran pointed to the fine beads of sweat on Bai Lu's forehead.

"Mental energy is not limitless. That attack just now probably consumed about 30% of her reserves. Once her mental energy is exhausted, she will be worse than an ordinary person, and may even fall into a deep coma."

"This requires tactical coordination."

Su Ran looked at Li Guodong, "Give her the best shield guards and the best assault troops. She's the brain, the assassin, but definitely not a tank."

Li Guodong nodded solemnly and quickly took out his notebook to jot down notes.

"Now that the reality and feasibility of 'awakening' have been confirmed..."

Li Guodong closed his notebook, his eyes sharpening. "Then it's time to put the remaining dozen or so people on the agenda."
