After the Skyfall
Chapter 759 Mission and Test
Chapter 759 Mission and Test
Huang Qiu’s painful cries after being injected with the genetic potion echoed in the shelter, attracting the curiosity of many people. However, in order to protect this secret, Du Peng, Liu Gao, and Xu Li immediately arranged for several people to seal off the room, and even took out pistols, shotguns and other weapons for deterrence.
These few people had relatively high status in this residential area and they easily took control of the situation.
However, the pain brought by the genetic potion could not be endured by willpower alone, especially for a native of the doomsday biochemical world like Huang Qiu, who was weak and malnourished. So after she held on for a while, her body’s protection mechanism made her fall into a coma.
“Huang Qiu is motionless, he couldn’t be dead.” Liu Gao took a look and his face changed slightly.
I didn’t expect the injection of genetic medicine to be so dangerous.
But when he thought that this thing could change people’s genes and turn them into supermen so that they could fight those biochemical monsters head-on, he felt that the price was normal. Even if Huang Qiu failed and died, it would not affect his determination to inject the genetic potion.
He didn’t want to survive in this dark shelter, so he might as well give it a try and change everything.
“Li Yi, Huang Qiu failed. Can I take over next? I have the confidence to make it through.”
Liu Gao took a deep breath, took a few steps forward, and spoke pleadingly.
“Let me do it. I’m stronger than you and my hope of becoming a genetic warrior should be greater.” Du Peng said seriously.
“No matter how many people die, as long as there is a chance to awaken and become genetic warriors, we are willing to try.” The woman named Xu Li said decisively.
Li Yi was stunned for a moment when he saw their fearless attitude towards death, and then said: “She is not dead yet. If you want to become a gene warrior, you have to line up at the back. Although gaining power requires a price, but…”
He said nothing further.
If Li Yi activated the life repair cabin and blocked Huang Qiu’s pain nerves, she would not feel anything and would be able to become a genetic warrior successfully just by lying down for a few dozen minutes.
Now, the reason why Huang Qiu’s gene awakening speed is a little slow is because his physical condition is not good enough, and he needs a life repair cabin to cultivate his physical condition.
“Du Peng.” Suddenly, Li Yi looked at the man.
“Yes.” Du Peng’s expression changed and he responded immediately.
Li Yi said: “Including Huang Qiu, I can help eight of you awaken to become genetic warriors at most. Go find someone you trust, male or female, young or old, but they must be sufficiently aware.”
“Your physique is too weak, as fragile as glass, and will break at the slightest touch. The genetic potion is not suitable for you. I have to change your physique first.”
“I understand.”
Du Peng immediately said seriously, and several suitable candidates immediately emerged in his mind.
“Du Peng, count me in, I want to do something too.”
Du Peng’s sister spoke at this moment. She didn’t want Du Peng to endure this painful genetic modification alone. If she was going to die, she wanted to be with her family.
Du Peng’s face changed when he heard that, and then he nodded solemnly, because he knew that the eight of them would soon seize power, and if they failed, no one would survive. Since they couldn’t escape, they might as well give it a try.
“Liu Gao, call Xiao Ma over. He’s a teenager now, and it’s time for him to take on some responsibilities. I’ll go find Zhang Jieshan. He’s our teammate, and although he’s injured and disabled, his determination to change everything is no less than ours.”
“And the veteran. Although he is old, he has rich combat experience and hates biological monsters more than anyone else.”
Plus his sister.
There were eight of us in total.
Soon, Liu Gao and Du Peng left here temporarily, and when they came back again, they brought back a few people.
The thin man who was missing a leg and an arm was carried over by Liu Gao. Not only had he been injured before, but he had also been malnourished for a long time and looked decadent. However, the moment Zhang Jieshan saw Li Yi today, a glimmer of hope appeared in his eyes.
Genetic modification, mastering extraordinary powers?
Does such a person exist in this terrible world?
But out of trust in his former teammates, he came without hesitation. After all, he only had a life and nothing to lose.
The other man called Veteran is over sixty years old with gray hair. Although he is tall, he is skinny. Although he was once an experienced fighter, he is old and has lost his value. It is not easy for him to survive in the shelter until today.
As for the young man named Xiao Ma, although he is only in his teens, he reveals a maturity that does not match his age, and his eyes are very determined.
“Li Yi, everyone is here. What should we do next?” Du Peng said.
“Although you are all misfits, I believe in your potential. The future may really change because of you guys. Don’t let me down.” Li Yi glanced at them.
Then he suddenly blew a breath towards them.
Suddenly, a strong wind blew nearby, and then a surge of life energy came out of Li Yi’s mouth, and finally split into eight parts, pouring into the bodies of these eight people.
This is the life essence of a warrior of the bloodline of the gods from the wild world. For ordinary people, it is a magical medicine that can transform them into a new person.
“This is.” Du Peng’s eyes suddenly opened, and he felt a very terrifying breath instantly surging into his body. This breath made his muscles swell, his bones break, but heal quickly, and his heart was beating like a heavy drum.
Power is emerging in an endless stream.
He clenched his fists, feeling that he could deform steel at this moment.
He was not the only one who felt this way, several other people felt the same way.
After taking in a breath of life essence, their bodies were undergoing transformation, but their foundation was too poor and soon reached its limit, and the speed of transformation rapidly slowed down.
If they continue like this, their cells will break and their bodies will collapse. After all, there is a limit to forcing things to happen.
soon.
Li Yi stopped infusing his vital energy.
The strong winds gradually died down, and several people underwent earth-shaking changes immediately.
Especially the old soldier, who was just a skinny old man before, but now he seems to have regained his youth and turned into a sturdy, muscular middle-aged man.
The young man named Zhang Jieshan also swept away his previous decadence, his eyes flashed with a gleam of light, and his strong body seemed to contain explosive power, but his missing legs did not grow back.
As a woman, Xu Li suddenly transformed from a vicissitudes of life middle-aged woman into a charming beauty. The transformation brought about by the essence of life is incredible.
“It’s not over yet. Inject the genetic potion and start awakening to become a genetic warrior.” Li Yi said later.
At this moment, the life repair cabin was opened. Huang Qiu suddenly opened her eyes and woke up. She successfully became a genetic warrior. Although she looked the same as before, some changes had quietly occurred in her body.
“Is a body of this level qualified to withstand the genetic potion?”
Du Peng felt the explosive power in his body, and he couldn’t help but laugh at his previous thoughts.
My current physical condition is just for preparation.
How vast is the extraordinary world?
While the life essence in their bodies had not yet dissipated, Li Yi immediately let them start genetic awakening.
This time it’s much faster.
It only took the eight people two or three hours to finish the task. What was most incredible to them was that the disabled man named Zhang Jieshan actually grew back his hands and feet.
“Incredible, really incredible.” Zhang Jieshan held his newly grown arm tightly, his eyes full of surprise.
“I feel like everything around me seems to have slowed down. No, that’s not right. My reaction speed has become faster, and my hearing and vision have made a qualitative leap.”
“Is this what it feels like to be a genetic warrior?” The old soldier raised his hand and punched the wall beside him.
There was a clear fist mark left on the concrete wall, but he was not hurt at all.
Li Yi put away the life repair cabin at this moment, and then said calmly: “There are nine levels of gene warriors in total. You are not even as good as the first-level gene warriors now. You have just awakened, but I have changed your physique, allowing you to have at least the physical fitness of a third-level gene warrior in advance.”
“Three hours. You only have three hours to take over this shelter and gain absolute control. After that, I will teach you how to practice. If you can’t do it, I will leave here.”
He gave these people a task.
“Okay, eight people, three hours, to take over the shelter. Please wait a moment.” Du Peng took a deep breath and agreed immediately.
Seize power?
The veteran, Zhang Jieshan, Xiao Ma and his sister looked at him in surprise.
Why haven’t I heard Du Peng talk about this before?
But soon.
The veteran and Zhang Jieshan both showed a hint of excitement in their smiles.
We should seize power.
To change the future, you must first change the present.
“Follow me.” Du Peng immediately called his teammates, then took away a few important weapons and equipment, and then strode outside.
Li Yi said: “After you succeed, walk out of the shelter and come to see me outside.”
After leaving these words, he did not linger here any longer but disappeared immediately.
He will not participate in what happens next, nor will he lend a helping hand, because this is an internal struggle among the survivors. If they can really change the world, they will definitely succeed.
Looking at the disappearing Li Yi, Du Peng’s eyes became more determined. He knew he only had one chance.
“Huang Qiu, sister, the two of you go seize the weapons depot. Xiao Ma, you go contact some old acquaintances in Districts 2, 7, and 8. Zhang Jieshan, your arms have just grown out, so it’s not appropriate for you to show up. You go control the gate of the shelter. The old soldier, Liu Gao, Xu Li, and I will go meet Zhang Ying.”
Du Peng immediately made arrangements: “If Zhang Ying is willing to give up this insignificant right for the future of the shelter, then everything will be easy. If not, you can seize power immediately.”
“We have to be quick. Li Yi won’t give us too much time. This is the only chance to change the future.”
“Okay.” Everyone said in unison, and then quickly separated.
Although they were not fully familiar with their own strength, in this doomsday world, crises wait for no one, so no one thought there was anything wrong with it.
soon.
Du Peng, the old soldier, Zhang Jieshan and Xu Li came to the fifth district.
This is the residence of Zhang Ying, the leader of the shelter, and also a storage point for supplies.
Here, controlling resources means controlling everything.
“Daqiang, I want to see the leader.” Du Peng stopped and shouted immediately. His powerful voice echoed and startled many people.
“You’re talking so loudly, are you in a hurry to reincarnate? Du Peng, the leader is very busy and has no time to see you. Let’s talk later.” A man with a rifle and a fierce face walked out with a frown and some impatience.
Seeing that it was Du Peng, he just waved his hand impatiently, signaling him to leave.
Du Peng casually threw over a bag of things.
Daqiang took it subconsciously, opened it and saw that it was full of precious antibiotics.
“I have a big deal to discuss with the leader. If it goes through, the shelter will no longer be short of medicines.” Du Peng said calmly.
Daqiang’s eyes moved, then he took the package of medicine and grinned, “Wait for me for ten minutes.”
After saying that, he turned around and left.
But after only five minutes, a guard with a weapon came out and said, “Du Peng, come in. The leader wants to see you.”
Du Peng was not surprised by this result.
Although Zhang Ying was not a very competent leader, it was impossible for him to give up a large amount of precious medicinal resources.
Du Peng glanced at the other teammates and signaled them to get ready for action.
The three of them nodded in understanding.
