Chapter 26, Thirteenth Round

Qianqian Mechanical Repair Shop, second floor.

"Phew!" Ye Xiu lay on the bed, took a deep breath, and pulled himself back to reality from his beautiful fantasy.

Regarding his third superpower, he thought about it briefly and quickly came up with a target. The key was that he could not only replicate it, but the effect of this superpower was also very powerful.

As for the target, it is naturally the superpower: Parasitic Doppelganger - Black Spider!

The other party is quite well-known on Aquamarine Star because of this special ability.

If I could replicate the other person's superpowers, not only would my survivability and combat ability be greatly improved.

Furthermore, if the potential level of the superpower is increased later and the gene chain evolves, it may have other uses.

Ye Xiu's superpower is powerful and rare not only because he can replicate the superpowers of others, but also because he can raise the potential level of the replicated superpowers to S-level.

But the latter is the most terrifying aspect of his superpower.

Otherwise, what's the use of having a lot of superpowers if they're all trash? It will only waste energy and won't form a powerful superpower combat system.

No matter how many ants there are, they can only kill one elephant. But what if they are faced with thousands or tens of thousands of elephants?

They'll be trampled to death in a minute.

However, Ye Xiu believed that his most urgent task was to improve his strength, which meant gaining some experience points.

Although his level has reached 20 and cannot be improved further, there are still many things about him that require experience points, such as his skills and the recently re-released E-rank ability [Muscle Enhancement].

With the player panel in place, it seems quite simple for Ye Xiu to increase the potential level of his superpower; he only needs to consume experience points, unlike the alien god who repeatedly used his own body as an experiment.

It's no wonder that even though the latter later became a top-tier powerhouse among the Super A-level, he still had to frequently fall into a deep sleep.

Most importantly, there are still six months before the public beta, and Ye Xiu wants to prepare properly before then.

Although he was harvesting those with supernatural abilities, while Han Xiao was harvesting those with mechanical abilities, it seemed that there was no competition between them.

However, in general, players will only choose a class based on its strength, coolness, and power.

Therefore, if you want to expand your "leek base" and have a continuous stream of "leeks" (victims), you must perform even more impressively than Technician Han.

Fortunately, her looks far surpassed those of the Korean technician, so she narrowly won the first round.

He's not worried about not having pretty girls choosing him and showering him with attention.

Thinking about his future goals, Ye Xiu was immediately full of energy. After washing his face, he went downstairs.

He saw Lü Qian working at the lathe, repairing a household appliance similar to an air conditioner. Her round and perky buttocks were covered by hot pants, revealing two long, snow-white legs, which made him take a second look.

Hearing the noise, Lü Qian subconsciously turned her head to look. After seeing that it was Ye Xiu, she said, "Work doesn't officially start until tomorrow. Aren't you going to rest for a bit?"

"No need, I've loved working since I was a child, and I feel listless if I don't work for a day," Ye Xiu said without batting an eye.

"That's great!" Lü Qian's face lit up with joy. "Just now, a car came in that needed repairs, and I couldn't handle it all by myself. Could you help me out?"

"Okay." Ye Xiu had no objection. He wasn't good at mechanical repairs, and if he wanted to make a living, he had to demonstrate his value.

Fortunately, he is strong and has no problem moving some parts.

Moreover, Lü Qian is a girl and not very strong; she used to need a lot of effort to move most of the items.

With Ye Xiu's help, work efficiency has skyrocketed.

Moreover, his intelligence is several times that of an average person, and he learns very quickly. He understood everything after Lü Qian explained it only once.

At this moment, Han Xiao, who had rested for a while, went down the stairs to the first floor.

His gaze swept across the room and he quickly saw that Ye Xiu had already started working with Lü Qian. He couldn't help but complain, "You old rascal, trying to outdo me in competition, huh? Fine, fine, let's see if I can outcompete you!"

……

Time flew by, and soon it was seven o'clock in the evening.

Although it was already time to leave work, Ye Xiu and Han Xiao, the two old men, pretended to be focused on their work. Anyone who didn't know better would think they were model employees.

It wasn't until Lü Qian urged them that the two of them stopped, pretending that they still hadn't had enough.

At this moment, Lü Qian changed into a white long dress and loosened her hair.

Her long, jet-black hair cascaded over her shoulders, giving her the gentle and approachable air of a friendly older sister.

"Come and have dinner! I made turtle, kelp, sesame, beef ball, and wood ear mushroom soup today," Lü Qian said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Ye Xiu and Han Xiao were stunned. They looked at each other and wondered what kind of bizarre dish this was. Could anyone eat it?

But the next second, they seemed to have made some kind of decision at the same time.

Ye Xiu shouted, "I'm going to eat every last bit of what Sister Qian made today!"

Not to be outdone, Han Xiao immediately pledged his loyalty. "Don't worry, Sister Qian, even if the wood ear mushrooms are black, I'll lick them until they're a lovely pink."

"Hehe—you two have such nice voices." Lü Qian laughed loudly, then suddenly seemed to remember something and quickly said, "Wait, it's a promise, I'm not planning to give you a raise for the first three months."

……

As the capital of Xinglong, Xidu is incredibly vast, divided into eight districts.

In addition, there were three larger citadels, which were connected to each other by military railways.

Zone 1 is the core area, where all government office buildings are located, and it is heavily guarded.

Although the war has ended, and with the potential threat of Sprout still present, there are still undercurrents among the six nations. They frequently assassinate each other's high-ranking officials and high-potential superhumans, and then, in perfect unison, shift the blame to Sprout and some super criminals.

The latest novel is first published here!

The Dragonhorn Building is the core government institution of Star Dragon, and its importance is self-evident. Its exterior walls are made of special materials, making them extremely sturdy. Not only can passenger planes not break through it, but even intercontinental ballistic missiles cannot.

Therefore, the senior executives of Star Dragon don't need to worry that a plane will suddenly "whoosh" and land on their heads while they are in a meeting.

At the bottom of the Dragon Horn Building, there is a very special department—the Secret Service!

……

Dragon Horn Building, underground, a floor not marked by an elevator.

This is the headquarters of the Strategic Defense Bureau of the Star Dragon Kingdom, commonly known as the Thirteenth Bureau.

Dozens of huge black electronic screens hung on the wall, with massive amounts of data flashing across them and the sound of keyboards clicking incessantly.

Countless intelligence reports are gathered here and then sent to their intended destinations.

For the Star Dragon Kingdom, the existence of the Thirteenth Bureau is extremely important, comparable to its eyes and ears.

"Brother Yuliang, we have preliminarily located the positions of Unit 1 and Unit 0. Current location: Chenghua Avenue, Erxianqiao..."

A secretary wearing gold-rimmed glasses hurriedly entered the intelligence minister's office without knocking.

The head of the intelligence department was a bald, middle-aged man. Upon hearing this, he frowned and said, "What do you mean, 'Brother Yu Liang'? How many times have I told you, please refer to plants when you're working?"

"Alright, Minister Gao," the secretary said, pursing her lips.

"Hmm." The intelligence chief nodded in satisfaction, then thought for a moment before slowly saying:

"Since they have come to Xidu and behaved very well, the subtext should be that they are seeking asylum and have a strong willingness to cooperate... Arrange to activate the informant protection program to prevent the spies in Xidu from learning of their whereabouts. At the same time, pay special attention to having hackers intercept intelligence to ensure that not a single piece of information about the two of them can be leaked out of Xidu."

"Finally, we sent people to secretly probe and find out their true intentions, and carefully check whether they were spies deliberately released by the Sprout Organization."

"The fact that the Sprout Organization is offering a million-dollar bounty on these two individuals proves that they are of great value if they are indeed defectors."

"Remember this: never act rashly. Be careful to avoid a repeat of the last time we captured Black Spider. Not only did the operation fail, but it also blew up two whole streets. Otherwise, I would have already taken the next step."

After finishing his statement, the intelligence chief couldn't help but sigh deeply and said, "My secretary, tell me, how high a rank is considered 'high'?"

"It depends on the person. Anyway, I'm quite satisfied with my current situation," the shrewd and capable female secretary said casually, while writing down the minister's previous arrangements one by one.
