Su Mo's words undoubtedly opened a new world for him, but unfortunately, the person who opened the door was quite irresponsible. After opening a crack, he just turned around and left.

"It's just a novel idea." Su Mo waved his hand twice. "I'm not a researcher. The only thing I can do is wait for the X-wave to reappear and see for myself. As for the rest, you should ask someone else."

"Nonsense, going there is suicide!"

"I won't die, even if everyone here dies, I still won't die," Su Mo said.

"Huh—" Professor Hao was taken aback. "Wait a minute, I haven't asked yet, are you X... are you a superhuman?"

Professor Hao's presence here suggests he knows a great deal.

"I guess so," Su Mo replied dismissively.

"Then can you let me take a look?" Professor Hao immediately became excited.

Su Mo turned her head and looked at Professor Hao speechlessly: "I thought the stories of superhumans being dissected and studied in novels were all fake. I never expected you to be this kind of professor."

"Who said we needed to slice it? This isn't my main research area, but I have an old friend who's an expert in this field and has been thinking about getting some blood samples or something," Professor Hao said.

"Not slicing it?" Su Mo asked with a smile.

"Cut my ass!"

Although Professor Hao is a scientist, he speaks like a butcher: "Isn't living more valuable than dying?"

Su Mo silently turned around, plucked some grass from the ground, and held it in his hand.

"What do you mean by that?" Professor Hao asked.

Su Mo said, "Damn it, I'd rather be sliced ​​up."

"It's not a sex experiment. At most, they'll put a detector on you or something and record data every day. Where did you hear all this nonsense?" Professor Hao said irritably.

"Let's find someone else. There are plenty of people with superpowers these days," Su Mo said.

"It's not worth studying at all," Professor Hao said with a slap on his thigh. "What kind of crappy superpower is that? It can only bend a spoon, and you have to be within a meter of it and stare at it for five minutes. And the spoon can't be of very good quality either. Can that crap even be called a superpower? It's much easier for me to just bend it with my hand than for that crappy superpower."

"That's how it is in the beginning, you'll grow with time," Su Mo said.

The superhumans he had met before all had some potential for growth. There were only two types of superhumans whose abilities remained unchanged: one was too strong, almost at their limit; the other was too weak, with only a limited degree of improvement no matter how much they were improved.

"Oh, right..."

Just as Professor Hao was about to continue speaking, a commotion suddenly broke out at the sealed-off entrance in the distance.

Chapter 108 Do you want to understand the true meaning of life?

------

The sound of some people talking and arguing loudly reached Su Mo's ears.

"What's going on?" Professor Hao stood up on the stool and looked around. However, there were many trees outside the small village, and the winding road at the entrance made it impossible for him to see what was happening at a glance.

After a while, Tang Tian walked over, followed by one or two young men, one of whom had a slightly arrogant expression on his face, and behind him were two men carrying video cameras.

Upon seeing the person who had arrived, Professor Hao lost interest and sat back down in his chair, ignoring the mud he had stepped on earlier.

Su Mo didn't even bother to turn his head, remaining lying on the recliner.

"Your activities are limited to this small village. You can't wander around. You can only take photos with our permission," Tang Tian said, his face very grim.

How could he have predicted that, in such an unclear situation, a reporter would come to conduct some ridiculous in-depth report? Tang Tian felt utterly utterly pissed off.

But there was no other way; the orders from above were to take good care of these people and let them conduct interviews—of course, whether the interviews would actually be published in the end was another matter entirely.

As for why, it's simply because one of these people is a second-generation rich kid who used his connections to win over his beautiful female colleague and also to enhance his resume. Regardless of whether it gets broadcast, this place is now a "military stronghold," and being able to "work here for a period of time" would make him a perfect war correspondent, earning him an impressive resume and a promotion of three ranks without any problem.

Although there are some dangers, we investigated before coming here and found that as long as we don't encounter any dangerous places, it's basically safe to stay in this small village.

"Why? Everyone has the right to know the truth!" A beautiful reporter waved a microphone, somewhat exasperated, and said to Tang Tian, ​​"You can't do this!"

"Allowing you to film is already the limit, I'll reiterate. It's dangerous here, your lives are in danger at any moment. If you don't want to die, leave now." For people like this whom he couldn't hit or scold, this was the only way Tang Tian could get them to leave quickly.

"is it?"

The young man with hair gel in his hair responded with a half-smile, pointing towards Su Mo and Hao Ren beside him, "Why do I feel like this guy is here on vacation?"

Professor Hao, needless to say, is a scientist or researcher just by looking at his attire. But Su Mo is different; although he's wearing a Secret Service uniform, his lazy demeanor makes him seem like a layabout.

Tang Tian turned to look at Su Mo, who was lying on the chair sunbathing, and couldn't help but rub his forehead. What is a terrible teammate? This guy is a typical terrible teammate.

We went to great lengths to invite you, and all you did was sunbathe. It's not that sunbathing is bad, but at least don't act like a retired old cadre!

Is he really an old monster who has lived for many years? You've mastered the essence of elderly health preservation!

"Never mind that, you just have to follow these rules." Helpless, Tang Tian could only awkwardly change the subject.

"Okay, but I'd like to conduct an interview first, you must allow that, right?" the beautiful reporter asked.

"Suit yourself, but don't disturb the others. I can't stop them if they don't want to be interviewed," Tang Tian said hurriedly before leaving. He had no desire to serve these young ladies and gentlemen; he had plenty of other things to do.

"Let's go, let's go do the interview." Lin Yunling tidied her hair a little and began her opening remarks to the camera.

Then, she turned her gaze and led the cameraman toward the soldiers patrolling on the other side.

Ten minutes later, Lin Yunling returned. Somewhat sullen, she said to the other young man, "Erdai, they all refuse to give any interviews."

Guan Erdai shrugged and said, "There's nothing I can do about it. You can't force someone to not give an interview. Besides, the air here is nice. We're new here, so let's get familiar with the environment first and put work aside for now."

"No way. I must interview one today!" Lin Yunling's work attitude was obviously much more serious than Guan Erdai's. After turning around, she suddenly fixed her gaze on Su Mo and Hao Ren.

"I'm going back to work now."

Professor Hao immediately stood up and ran back to the small house on the other side; he had no interest in giving any interviews.

"Hey, this..." Upon hearing Lin Yunling's voice from behind, Professor Hao displayed a speed beyond his years, rushing to the door of the small house in a flash, opening the door and dashing inside.

"..."

Lin Yunling was speechless. Even if she didn't want to, did she have to do it so quickly?

With no other option, Lin Yunling could only turn her attention to Su Mo, the "retired veteran cadre," on the other side.

Su Mo turned his head at this moment and looked at these people, saying, "You guys aren't very lucky."

"What?" Lin Yunling was taken aback.

"Hmm... I'm probably going to die." Su Mo finally got up from the recliner and stretched.

"Waaaaah!"

At the same time, the alarms installed in the small village began to sound. Professor Hao, who had just entered the house, rushed back in, shouting, "Something's wrong! This fluctuation is extremely violent; it's likely to affect this area. Everyone..."

Before he could finish speaking, everyone else felt the earth shake, and then everything went black before they knew nothing more.

"I knew it."

Su Mo thought to himself, the feeling of alienation from this space swept over him again, spreading throughout his body.

Su Mo was not immune to a moment of mental disorientation. In that instant, the surrounding environment had completely changed, or rather, Su Mo had been transferred to another space.

However, this time it wasn't the "virus powder" he ingested that caused the problem, and Su Mo wasn't the only one who was transported to another world.

He stood in a dimly lit corridor, which was only three to five meters wide. The lights above flickered on and off, casting an extremely dim light that hurt his eyes. It would have been better if there were no lights at all.

Nearby, Su Mo was at least illuminated by a light that could explode at any moment, while the distance was completely plunged into darkness.

At his feet lay a dozen or so people sprawled haphazardly, covering an area of ​​several meters around him. But even these people numbered less than a tenth of the soldiers stationed in the small village; the whereabouts of the other hundred or so were unknown.

Perhaps it's still in the same place, or perhaps it's in the darkness far away.

Half of these people had a large number of soul fragments in their bodies, and they experienced the "overeating" phenomenon that Su Mo mentioned.

The other nine people were normal. Although their breathing was not very steady, they were at least breathing, which proved that they had just fainted and were not dead. They were really lucky.

Among these lucky people were Guan Erdai and Lin Yunling, as well as an uncle carrying a camera; the rest were soldiers. Tang Tian and Hao Ren, whom Su Mo knew, were not among them, and it was unknown where they had gone.

"Where is this place?"

The first person to wake up was not one of the soldiers, but Guan Erdai, the second-generation rich kid. Looking at the scene around him, the second-generation rich kid did not shout or scream in fear or excitement. Instead, he took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, and looked at Su Mo and asked.

"Do you want to understand the true meaning of life?" Su Mo asked, looking into the darkness in the distance.

"What?" Guan Erdai was stunned.

"Do you want to know the true value of your life?" Su Mo's eerie tone, combined with the surrounding environment, was enough to send chills down one's spine.

Guan Erdai was clearly not so bold as to be completely indifferent, and stammered, "What...what do you mean? Where...where is this place?"

“Here…” Su Mo paused for a moment, then said in a relaxed tone, “Actually, I don’t know where this is either. I woke up about a minute earlier than you.”

As the two were talking, the other survivors gradually woke up. Nothing strange happened. The soldiers demonstrated the professionalism expected of them, standing guard in front and behind, protecting the three ordinary people.

"Where am I?!"

Perhaps it was because there were more people, but Guan Erdai, who had been frightened by Su Mo earlier, regained his courage and spoke much louder.

"Tick."

The only answer to his question was the sound of dripping water, clearly audible in the dark, oppressive, and quiet environment.

"What's that sound?" As the only woman in the room, Lin Yunling was naturally not so calm in this situation, and almost screamed.

"I'm going to take a look. You can stay where you are or come with me, but I can't guarantee your safety." Su Mo walked forward.

To be honest, Su Mo was a little surprised to find himself in such an environment.

Such an oppressive, cage-like place often signifies danger, at least for those behind him.

"Commander Su, our communicators have completely lost signal. Can you contact anyone else?" someone asked.

"I don't even have a communicator..." Su Mo said, then suddenly turned around, "By the way, do you guys have gained some kind of superpower?"

Since these people did not die, do they become new X individuals with superpowers?

"Superpowers?" Everyone was stunned.

After a brief silence, Guan Erdai stretched out a hand and said with a hint of arrogance, "Is this what you mean?" As he spoke, a flame suddenly appeared, hovering above his palm and beginning to burn.
