Chapter 204: Chapter 193 Bai Qilan’s Talent
Su Han was taken aback but quickly regained his composure and replied, “Don’t be so reckless next time.”
He also realized that Bai Qilan was always cautious, so how could it be possible that for this experiment she merely had the Angel Envoy stand by her side, rather than in front of her.
Moreover, knowing that Mei Yi might awaken a Talent, she certainly wouldn’t stand so close after the injection.
What she was relying on was her newly awakened Talent.
However, even so, if something unexpected had happened, it wouldn’t have been good at all.
Bai Qilan just nodded without answering.
Su Han thought she wasn’t worried about Mei Yi’s sneak attack because of her trust in her Talent, but what he didn’t know was that she was at ease because Su Han was by her side.
Just now, even if she hadn’t blocked, Su Han had already moved to protect her a step earlier.
“You all deserve to die!”
The triumphant smile on Mei Yi’s face had turned into endless curses, and she condensed her spiritual energy into a solid light, trying to continue gathering spiritual energy long needles for an attack.
However, before two spiritual energy long needles could be formed, a cold light swept through Su Han’s eyes as he activated Metal Control.
Chains and iron hoops immediately grew spikes, piercing into Mei Yi’s body, and the intense pain made her lose control of the spiritual energy long needles.
Bai Shan quickly stepped forward at this time, injecting a syringe into her body, and the anesthetic instantly spread, soon rendering Mei Yi completely immobile.
“Dad, remember to draw her blood, take a bit more, she won’t be around for long.”
“Understood,” Bai Shan turned his head to look at Ji Mingyang and the others: “Mingyang, come over and help.”
With Bai Shan’s assistance, Bai Qilan took a few steps back with Su Han, making room for Bai Shan and the others to work.
“That spiritual energy long needle just now was quite good, but it doesn’t seem to make much of a difference compared to synchronized skills, does it?”
Synchronized skills, though currently there weren’t many in the camp capable of synchronization. Su Han was one, Zhu Xiong was another, and Yan Meiyu had synchronized the Shadow Strike skill, but not many were aware of it.
Without exception, they could all unleash special abilities.
“There’s a difference, but it essentially points to the same thing.”
Bai Qilan gave an enigmatic answer and Su Han, puzzled, asked, “What do you mean?”
“Spiritual Energy.”
As Bai Qilan recorded the data on Mei Yi, she murmured softly, “Spiritual Shaping Control, range 30 meters, strength close to metal, speed undetermined.”
Although the recorded data marked as undetermined, it was more about the direct impressions during the attack.
But that was enough; after all, what she wanted wasn’t to research Mei Yi’s Spiritual Power Talent, but to confirm certain conjectures.
She raised her head and said to Su Han, “I believe that Talent itself is a special development of the human body with Spiritual Energy, and as Contractors keep strengthening their powers, you too might be able to control Spiritual Energy directly at fourth or fifth-order and beyond, shaping it for attacks.”
Su Han was still a little confused, “Talent and skills are essentially both applications of Spiritual Energy.”
“Yes, but skills are dependent on it, they can’t be enhanced or deciphered without synchronization, besides the skill itself.”
Bai Qilan lifted her fair right hand, with the Book of Blood Spirit on it glowing slightly red, “We are not sure about the good or bad, the pros and cons of this Book of Blood Spirit.”
The origin of the Book of Blood Spirit, other than possibly being related to that Demon Eye, was completely unknown.
“Skills can be used, but leveling up can only happen through the advancement and synchronization with an Angel Envoy. Many people find it difficult to cross that step, and only during a Divine Initiation Ritual might there be a major change, unlike you.”
Bai Qilan’s attitude was very clear, Su Han fell silent for a while, then said, “Are you confident?”
“Mhm,” Bai Qilan spoke, “I have a premonition that my talent should be somewhat effective, my research progress has accelerated a lot these past few days.”
“Then let’s try it. If anything goes wrong, stop immediately.”
Bai Qilan showed a smile. At this moment, Bai Shan came rushing over with a frown. He had not expected his daughter to use the three First Order Upper Grade enhancement drugs she had prepared in such a manner.
It was indeed a bit reckless.
“Qilan, why are you so impulsive.”
“Dad, set up the camera.”
Bai Shan glared, then could only sigh and went to make the preparations. His daughter had the same temperament as her mother.
Soon, the site was ready, and Bai Qilan held the syringe of the enhancement drug above her arm.
As the drug entered her body, the energy contained within was quickly absorbed, and her aura began to fluctuate slightly, involuntarily spreading out.
Although Bai Qilan was already at Second-order Intermediate, it didn’t mean that her overall physical condition had reached that of a Second-order Intermediate monster in constitution.
Compared to the monsters’ unbridled mutations, although the human body contained considerable spiritual energy, the physical strength was still somewhat lacking.
However, with the supplementary strengthening of the enhancement drugs, Bai Qilan’s physical condition was slowly improving, compensating for her weaknesses.
But this was not the focus of everyone’s attention. As she continued to assimilate and digest the power of the enhancer, her body started to be faintly enveloped in a light purple glow.
Her aura grew stronger, and the next moment she grabbed another enhancement drug and injected it into her body.
Her momentum continued to rise, and at the same time, the purple glow around her became brighter. The objects around her suddenly started to tremble, making rustling noises.
At this time, Bai Qilan felt a warm current pouring into her body, then gathering at the location of her Sea of Consciousness. Her perception was extending indefinitely, and the world plunged into endless darkness.
Spiritual energy surged, and nothing else existed besides it.
Thump, thump
The pulsation of the spiritual energy became clearer, and in her Sea of Consciousness, Bai Qilan seemed to stand at the edge of this endless dark world...
It was close, just a little more
In reality, Bai Qilan’s thoughts moved. Though her eyes remained closed, the last enhancement drug on the table autonomously floated into her hand, and then she injected it into her arm.
As the final dose of the drug entered her body, the half-activated talent broke the bottle’s bottleneck with a crash, like a crack in a silver flask.
Spiritual energy burst forth, and the objects around were swept away by an invisible force of telekinesis.
Su Han, with the Floating Pagoda Black Armor attached, resisted the impact of this telekinetic force, while Bai Qilan was now shrouded in a purple luminescence all over her body.
In her Sea of Consciousness, her perception had entered a magnificent world woven of black and purple.
She saw trails of faint purple light dots moving around Shanhu Villa District, the enormous ancient tree in the distant band area where purple light converged, and the roaring monsters within South City...
It was as if she perceived everything at this moment, with spiritual energy converging into spirits, eroding the world...
She wanted to see further, but the spiritual energy and spirit inside her were being consumed at an unimaginable rate.
By looking just one more time, she barely noticed a few small pillars of light similar to hers among the distant light spots, then like the jab of a needle, the excruciating pain raided her Sea of Consciousness, and everything around collapsed.
“Qilan!”
Her body, hovering above the grass, fell quickly, and Su Han, with a move, had already caught her in his arms.
