Chapter 21: Lighthouse Legend, Li Mo.

“Uh… is there something wrong with my level?”

Su Chen saw the constipated look on Mark’s face and asked quietly.

When Mark heard this, he was even more furious. He gritted his teeth and spat out a word, “Get lost!”

“Okay!” Su Chen walked down the platform happily and sat back down.

It was not that Su Chen did not know what it meant for him to be a level three when he first awakened. He simply thought that it was interesting to joke with Mark.

Even if he did not know about the level of his special ability before, just look at the results today.

Most Evolvers were only at level one when they first awakened.. Su Chen knew that his test results were pretty good.

Currently, the fusion rate of his bull’s soul was still at 70%. After the complete fusion, he should be able to reach the middle-stage of level three.

However, Su Chen was not too excited.

Strictly speaking, he was not at the beginning of his awakening.

Before this, Su Chen had already fused with the eagle’s soul. He estimated that the energy in his body when he fused with the eagle soul should be around level one.

However, the special ability brought by the eagle soul was too simple. It only enhanced Su Chen’s eyesight. He was too embarrassed to say that this was also a special ability.

However, this was also related to the fact that Su Chen did not absorb the energy directly from the eagle-type Origin Beast.

After fusing with the bull’s energy, including the special ability brought by the eagle’s soul, Su Chen guessed that the key to his body’s evolution was to absorb energy.

“I’m afraid the evolution drug given by The Lighthouse is also related to origin ability.” Su Chen muttered.

After Su Chen finished his test, he immediately became the focus of all the newcomers.

The little fangirl once again came to Su Chen’s side and asked, “Could it be that joining Captain Gao Fei’s team can increase the level of my special ability?”

Hearing this, Su Chen looked at the little fangirl beside him with a face of disbelief.

How could this have anything to do with Captain Gao Fei?

Could it not be because of my own hard work?

You only have eyes for Gao Fei!

However, Su Chen thought about it. The reason why he was able to quickly increase his strength was really related to Gao Fei.

If he had not joined Captain Gao Fei’s team, he probably would not have had the chance to fuse with a second beast soul.

Thinking of this, Su Chen replied, “Hmm… barely.”

Upon hearing Su Chen’s words, the little fangirl looked at Gao Fei with even more admiration. A bunch of little stars were about to appear in her eyes.

“But you’re also very powerful. Let’s formally meet. My name is Nono.” The little fangirl changed the topic.

Su Chen turned his head and saw the red-haired Nono smiling like a flower. She was extending her little hand toward him.

Su Chen politely shook his hand and said, “My name is Su Chen.”

Although they had already known each other’s names when Gao Fei called out their names, the two still formally got to know each other.

Just as Nono was about to pester Su Chen to ask more questions…

Gao Fei finally opened his mouth and pulled the helpless Su Chen out of his misery.

“Everyone already knows the test results. Now do you understand the dangers in the wasteland?

“If you don’t, I can tell you about the casualties of the previous exploration of the wasteland.”

As Gao Fei’s voice fell, the hall quickly quieted down.

Most of the people present had never carried out an exploration mission like Su Chen.

Therefore, they knew very little about the environment in the wasteland. The fundamental reason why The Lighthouse started the training was also because of this group of rookies.

Seeing that everyone had quietened down, Gao Fei spoke slowly, but his voice was a little heavier.

“The last mission, number A-4399.

“A total of ten exploration teams were dispatched.

“Including 47 Evolvers and 139 workers.

“The number of survivors, 16 Evolvers and 17 workers.”

“A total of five teams… were completely sacrificed, and no one survived.”

As Gao Fei’s voice fell, the hall was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.

“Gulp… Gulp.”

A lot of throbbing sounds appeared in the hall.

Gao Fei did not give any video information about the exploration of the wasteland. In fact, any video information about the team that died in battle could not be brought back.

There were only a few simple and cold numbers, which meant that hundreds of lives had been lost in a short day.

Just these numbers alone made the rookies present feel the coldness and ruthlessness of the wasteland.

Su Chen’s gaze was solemn.

After the last exploration, he only knew that each team in that operation had suffered heavy casualties. However, due to the team led by Gao Fei, there were not too many casualties.

Su Chen also did not expect the casualties behind the operation to be so tragic.

In order to appease the people, the specific casualties would not be reported to everyone.

Gao Fei chose to explain the casualties he knew so that everyone could clearly understand the cruelty of the wasteland.

Facts proved that Gao Fei’s approach was not a problem.

Some people were sweating profusely, their lips were white, and they were afraid of the mission they were about to face.

Some of them had solemn expressions, and their eyes were filled with fighting spirit.

However, the same thing happened.

After knowing the dangers of exploring the wasteland, no one dared to underestimate their next move!

Gao Fei spoke again.

“The initial talent can give you a better environment for growth, but it doesn’t explain everything.

“In the wasteland, survival is the ultimate goal. Only by surviving can you become stronger.

“The simplest example is General Li Mo. I believe everyone knows that.”

Everyone nodded in unison.

Li Mo was practically a legend within The Lighthouse. Almost everyone in The Lighthouse knew about the man who was able to successfully bring back resources from the wasteland before becoming an Evolver.

“Li Mo didn’t obtain any special abilities after injecting the gene reagent.”

“Hiss!”

As Gao Fei’s voice faded, everyone present sucked in a breath of cold air.

Li Mo was practically The Lighthouse’s strongest combat power. When he had awakened, he had not even obtained any special ability!

Everyone present had some understanding of what kind of existence an Origin Beast was.

A bat with a wingspan of over ten meters, a fierce tiger that weighed tens of tons!

These types of Origin Beasts could be seen almost everywhere in the wasteland!

With just a human body, they could not imagine how Li Mo survived in such an environment.

Let alone obtaining the same strength as today!

This rumor about Li Mo was common in The Lighthouse, but not many people believed it.

However, when this news was confirmed by Gao Fei’s mouth, it gave them a great shock!

As for the man whom he had only met once when he returned to The Lighthouse, Su Chen’s heart was filled with admiration.

He knew better than the other rookies how dangerous the wasteland was.

Even with the eagle’s soul in his possession, it was extremely difficult for Su Chen to survive the previous mission.

If not for his enhanced eyesight, he might have died when he faced the petrified centipede group.

“Su Chen!”

“Here!”

Just as Su Chen was deep in thought, Gao Fei called out his name.

Just after Su Chen responded, he immediately understood what Gao Fei wanted him to do.

“So soon, I will be used as a teaching material.” Su Chen thought helplessly in his heart.
