"Just after a C-Class giant eagle left, another D-Class fierce beast is here... this Xingfu District is indeed something else."
Ning Shuangyu slightly tilted her head back, her flawless pale face watching the big cat with a determined gaze.
The only eye left on the big cat was flickering with a ghostly green light, continuously emitting a low growl from its throat.
Just then, the distant bushes were trembling non-stop, making a rustling sound.
Another fierce beast is approaching?!
Ning Shuangyu frowned.
But at this moment, the big cat already launched its attack on her!
Ning Shuangyu could only dodge, relying on her agile body technique, constantly tangling with the big cat, seeking a chance for a decisive strike.
The person and the cat entangled for a few seconds.
The big cat suddenly twisted its body and with an unexpected move, its tail struck Ning Shuangyu, sending her flying and crashing heavily onto the ground!
Ning Shuangyu felt as if her waist was almost broken.
Immediately, she spat out a mouthful of blood!
The big cat seized the victory and pounced with a roar!
Ning Shuangyu gritted her teeth, but instead of dodging, she lunged towards the big cat!
The person and the cat were now close at hand!
The big cat clawed at her chest!
But she took the opportunity to stab downward with a dagger, striking the big cat's only remaining eye!
"Roar!"
The big cat howled in anger, suddenly retreating a few steps, wildly swinging its claws at the air around it.
The next second!
A gigantic black snake emerged from nowhere, clamped its jaws on the big cat's throat, and dragged it into the bushes!
Seeing this, Ning Shuangyu dared not linger any longer and ran away!
But after only a few steps, she was blocked by an entangled wall of roots and stems.
She looked up—
Xingfu District, Building C, Unit 1.
...
Unit 2202, Building C.
The battle between Lin Lang and Gu Fei had already ended.
Gu Fei went to the bathroom to wash up.
Lin Lang sat on the computer chair, bored, scrolling through videos.
Regarding this rescue mission, there was a lot of online discussion.
Various cities across the country had organized material supply missions.
But the success rate was still below fifty percent.
Mostly because of fierce beast attacks, causing massive casualties.
Netizens were frightened.
Some even criticized the authorities, accusing them of incompetence.
But Lin Lang knew.
This wasn't the fault of the officials.
The fierce beasts were simply too strong.
They could even be immune to bullets now.
Unless superpowers were awakened, humans couldn't possibly confront them!
At this moment.
He turned his gaze to the cactus on the desk.
Only to find.
In just a few hours.
The buds on the cactus had already withered!
A slender sprout had grown from the top of the cactus, with a red fruit the size of a fava bean hanging on it!
"Could this be the superpower fruit?"
Lin Lang couldn't help but lean in closer.
The small fruit was emitting a faint glow, exuding a subtle fragrance.
Lin Lang felt it was highly likely!
This should be the legendary superpower fruit!
"By eating this, I can gain superpowers..."
Lin Lang was eager to move!
But caution was paramount.
He certainly wouldn't just eat it.
He observed more meticulously.
The fruit was greedily absorbing the surrounding air, growing almost ceaselessly!
Until!
It grew to the size of an egg!
Radiating brilliant light with its breathing!
"Matured?"
In a moment of odd compulsion, Lin Lang reached out and plucked the fruit!
Heavy, cold to the touch.
At this time.
Gu Fei also finished washing, came out of the bathroom, draped in Lin Lang's bath towel.
Lin Lang said:
"Come over."
At his words, Gu Fei gave Lin Lang a resentful glance but still trudged to the study.
"What's up?"
Lin Lang handed her the fruit, calmly saying:
"Try a bite."
Gu Fei looked at the fruit, frowning:
"What is this? Where did it come from?"
She wouldn't readily eat something without knowing its origin.
Lin Lang only said:
"Just take a light bite, don't swallow."
After these days of exploration.
He had already figured out the return mechanism, especially the definition of "consumption."
Any item that loses its original state is considered consumed.
Meaning.
Any item that changes in their hands can trigger a return!
Gu Fei gently sniffed it.
The fruit had a fragrance similar to an apple.
So she lightly took a small bite.
[Gu Fei consumed a lower-grade superpower fruit, 300 were returned, stored in the host's space]
"Sure enough!"
Lin Lang felt a burst of joy in his heart—
This is the Superpower Fruit!
Although it's just a lower grade.
But it's still a genuine Superpower Fruit!
After eating this fruit, what kind of superpower will one gain?
Lin Lang said to Gu Fei:
"Eat it, it's something good."
"Something good?"
Gu Fei only thought briefly before she consumed the entire fruit.
The next moment!
Gu Fei's expression changed!
She felt streams of cool wind madly pouring into her pores!
So comfortable!
"Ah~"
She couldn't help but let out a moan!
Realizing this, she hurriedly covered her mouth!
This sensation lasted for about a few seconds.
After everything calmed down, Gu Fei surprisingly found that all her senses had become much stronger!
She could even hear Lin Lang's strong heartbeat!
Even the thick fog outside the window seemed to have lightened a bit, allowing her to see further.
Lin Lang saw her shocked face and asked:
"How does it feel?"
Gu Fei looked incredulous:
"It's amazing! My senses have strengthened a lot! Vision, hearing, smell, all enhanced!"
"I can even vaguely sense the presence of objects around me with my eyes closed!"
"What kind of treasure is this?"
Lin Lang gave a slight smile:
"This is the Superpower Fruit, it can grant people superpowers."
"Ah? Such a miraculous item actually exists in this world..."
Gu Fei felt her worldview quietly shifting.
On the computer desk.
Ever since Lin Lang picked the fruit.
The cactus pot rapidly shriveled down, changing color from fresh green to black-yellow, appearing lifeless.
As if it had lost the source of its life.
"Alright, you can leave now." Lin Lang said to Gu Fei.
"Mm."
Gu Fei obediently walked out of the study.
Lin Lang took out a Superpower Fruit from the space.
And swallowed it in one bite.
In an instant!
The essence of heaven and earth surged into his body!
As if a parched soil finally welcomed a nourishing spring rain!
He closed his eyes to carefully feel.
A few seconds later, everything calmed down.
He let out a breath and opened his eyes.
In his vision.
It was like a world refreshed after a rainstorm.
Everything had changed, becoming clearer and more vivid!
Even with his eyes closed.
He could sense everything within a meter around him!
He willed a thought and called up his information:
[Lin Lang]
[Physical Body: Second Enhancement]
[Superpower: Inspiration (Level 1)]
So this ability is called Inspiration!
There's a level, does that mean it can be upgraded?
How should it be upgraded?
By eating more Superpower Fruits?
Lin Lang had eaten one, and now there were 299 left in the space.
So he ate another one.
[Superpower: Inspiration (Level 1)]
No change.
But he faintly felt that his sensing power had increased a bit, and the range he could sense with his eyes closed had expanded a bit!
About a few centimeters more.
But it definitely increased.
So he ate a few more.
Finally!
After eating ten Superpower Fruits!
[Superpower: Inspiration (Level 2)]
Sure enough!
Eating more Superpower Fruits allows one to upgrade!
Encouraged, he began devouring the Superpower Fruits!
Until he ate more than thirty in one go!
His stomach could hold no more.
[Superpower: Inspiration (Level 3)]
"Level 3!"
He closed his eyes.
He could clearly sense everything within a ten-meter radius!
Even this perception could disregard the obstructions of doors and walls!
He could now sense that Gu Fei was sitting on the living room sofa.
And within Gu Fei's body, a tiny flickering point of light, like a firefly!
"Is that light point the power of the Superpower Fruit?"
He then focused his attention on himself—
Within his body, there was a mass of light the size of an egg!
