Chapter 2 Brainwashing

As time passed, Hela grew impatient and asked Lin Weixian, "How's the brainwashing device coming along?"

"It'll take a few more minutes. After all, it hasn't been used for a long time, so restarting will take some time," Lin Weixian said.

Ye Xiu frowned. This place was indeed a brainwashing facility. It seemed he had to find a way to save himself.

The only option now is to stall for time and wait until the superpower awakens.

With that in mind, Ye Xiu no longer hesitated and immediately channeled his inner movie star.

His body suddenly went limp and he collapsed to the ground, his face contorted in agony, groaning repeatedly, his body trembling uncontrollably.

"300,000" and "Constipation Guy" were stunned by what they saw and backed away, indicating that they hadn't done anything and were only interested in each other.

"What's going on?" Hela was also shocked. Ye Xiu was fine just now, how come he seems to have a terminal illness now?

"Perhaps it's a side effect of the Valkyrie solution." Lin Weixian walked over at this moment and looked at Ye Xiu's body.

"Side effects?" Hela raised an eyebrow. "Doesn't that mean the experiment failed?"

Lin Weixian shook his head, then stubbornly continued, "This is just my guess. If I could cut open his skull to test his brain activity..."

"If I open the skull, extract the juice, and slice it into pieces, how can I possibly survive?" Ye Xiu muttered to himself.

"No." Hela chose to stop her again.

At the same time, seeing Ye Xiu's lifeless and dying appearance, Hela and the others felt somewhat helpless.

If it were an ordinary test subject, they would have slapped him across the face long ago. You're always causing trouble.

But Ye Xiu's status is different; after all, he was the first Valkyrie test subject to awaken, so he still has some value.

Soon, the 30 minutes were up, and a notification appeared on the panel in front of Ye Xiu's eyes:

[你已觉醒S级异能——复刻,力量+10、敏捷+8、耐力+8、智力+8、神秘+10、魅力+1]

[【Replica】: When the target's health drops below 5% and they enter a near-death state, you can steal their special ability; the lower the target's health and the lower their ability potential level, the higher the success rate. For every 1% decrease in health, the success rate increases by 10%; when the target's ability potential level is E, the success rate increases by 80%; when the target's ability potential level is D...]

[Gained Specialization - God of Abilities: Reduces stamina consumption by 15% and increases ability power by 15% when activating abilities; reduces physical damage from abilities by 15%; reduces mental damage from abilities by 15%]

[Acquired Specialty - Unparalleled Divine Might: After replicating the target's ability, their ability potential is up to S-rank]

[Gained Specialization - Genetic Evolution: Increases the resilience of the gene chain by 30%]

[Current maximum number of superpowers: 1/3]

"S-level superpower! Lady Luck has finally smiled upon me again." Ye Xiu was overjoyed. Sure enough, handsome people are lucky.

Hela and the others were slightly startled to sense that Ye Xiu's aura had subtly strengthened in a short period of time.

His body had only been convulsing for a dozen minutes, yet his breathing had suddenly become stronger. Could this be the effect of the Valkyrie experiment?!

They initially thought Ye Xiu was acting and trying to stall for time.

But now it seems that the effects of the Valkyrie solution definitely kicked in.

"Such a rapid increase in strength! I feel this guy's aura has become much stronger than before." Lin Weixian said excitedly, "If I could study his brain and slice his body into pieces, maybe I could replicate him..."

Seriously, just how obsessed are you with pig brains and sliced ​​meat?

"Now that he's recovered, hurry up and start brainwashing him immediately. Turn the brainwashing equipment up to its maximum power, even if it breaks down afterward," Hela said in a deep voice.

"What if the light goes off? What if it damages his brain?" Lin Weixian said with a hint of reluctance.

"I feel that his strength has indeed increased a lot. In order to ensure that the brainwashing is successful, this is the only way," Hela said in a deep voice.

Just then, she suddenly noticed that Ye Xiu was getting restless. Her eyes turned cold, and a large amount of dark red gas instantly appeared in the laboratory. Ghost faces appeared and disappeared in the gas, accompanied by howling sounds.

Seeing this, Ye Xiu couldn't help but chuckle dryly. His newly risen confidence was once again crushed by Hela, and he had to face reality.

Although he awakened an S-class superpower, this superpower is strong in the later stages and relatively weak in the early stages.

Hela, on the other hand, is an E-class superhuman, a special type, with an energy level of over 500 Ounas. Conservatively speaking, her combat power is probably enough to take on eight hundred of him.

"Even if the brainwashing device is turned up to its maximum power, with the current technological capabilities of Aquamarine, I should be exempt as long as my intelligence is over 15 points," Ye Xiu thought to himself, his eyes flashing slightly.

After successfully awakening his S-class superpower, his basic personal attributes improved significantly, with his intelligence attribute reaching a full 14 points.

Combined with the 3 points of mental resistance from the [Low-Level Mental Resilience] feat, it's equivalent to an additional 3 points of intelligence.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, they should be exempt from this brainwashing.

At Hela's prompting, "300,000" and "Constipation Guy" pulled Ye Xiu back into the chair.

Ye Xiu did not resist, his expression one of resignation.

The latest novel is first published here!

Cold shackles bound his hands and feet, and an iron frame secured his head.

In front of the metal chair is a black screen, and on either side of the screen are speakers.

This is the brainwashing equipment of the Sprout Organization; it does look rather rudimentary.

But that's normal, since the human brain is an extremely complex system.

The fact that the Sprout Organization can develop brainwashing equipment with a high success rate is already quite technologically advanced for Aquamarine.

The technological level of Aquamarine is not much different from that of Earth. The Sprout Organization is an organization that attempts to overthrow the regimes of major powers.

"How long does the brainwashing take?" Hela asked.

"Twelve hours."

"So long?!" Hela raised an eyebrow slightly. Why was Ye Xiu taking so long?

But considering that Lin Weixian was just an ordinary human being, she was worried about leaving him alone with Ye Xiu.

Thinking of this, Hela had no choice but to suppress her frustration and decide to patiently wait for the brainwashing to finish, saying, "Let's start the brainwashing, the sooner we start, the sooner we can finish."

"Okay." Lin Weixian nodded, and then "click!" the switch was turned on.
