Chapter 1842: Frantic Grab

Chapter 1837: Frantic Grab

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

The equipment sold by the bigshot was quite technologically advanced, so a complete logistics team would be required to handle adjustments, maintenance and repairs.

Soldiers would just use the equipment temporarily. Without logistics support, their combat ability could only be boosted for a short period of time.

In a situation like this, not only did the soldiers have to be brave, they also had to be brainless.

Thus, Jiaying thought of another problem: Once they used this equipment, who would dare use them against the bigshot and the Bat Squad?

The good news was that the bigshot had a good reputation at the highest level, and there was no bad talk about him swindling clients.

With Big Dipper around, it seemed that Jiaying didn’t need to worry about this.

If the bigshot really wanted Afterlife, Big Dipper could wipe out this place on his own.

In the first match, it wasn’t strange for Big Dipper to defeat five Inhumans in his armor.

In the second match, Big Dipper’s armor had been left back in his room and all it had taken was one strange umbrella to rout the ambush. None of them had been able to withstand a blow from him.

That meant that he only needed to make 100 moves against the 100 people in Afterlife.

If they used guns… Hehe, who wouldn’t be scared of a 100% accuracy rate over 100 meters?

After thinking about it, Jiaying couldn’t think of a way to turn things around. Even if she took care of Big Dipper, he still had the Bat Squad behind him!

She had no choice but to turn a blind eye.

After all, this man was friends with her daughter, and there was always room for negotiation.

…

Luke, on the other hand, was like a mouse that had snuck into a grain store.

He had never seen over 100 superhumans gathered together in one place, and everyone here had different abilities.

In fact, Jiaying hadn’t used all her trump cards. The Inhumans with strange abilities hadn’t participated in the competition at all.

An Inhuman who could become incorporeal would definitely be difficult to deal with. There were also people who could turn into water, explode or stretch their bodies; none of them were simple.

Jiaying knew very well that even if she won this match, she didn’t dare kill Big Dipper, nor could she stop the Bat Squad paying attention to Afterlife.

Afterlife was doomed to be weak from the beginning, because a lot of them couldn’t leave. In comparison, nobody knew where the Bat Squad was.

That was how wretched it felt to have your nest searched.

As for Luke, who was frantically rummaging through someone’s nest like crazy, he was as pleased as punch.

He couldn’t learn Gordon’s teleportation, or abilities like turning into water, exploding or stretching the body.

Then, there was the young man with electricity whom he had hit twice, the girl who spat out cold air, the old Asian man who released poisonous gas, the person who controlled plants and had turned into a tree, and the man with sunglasses who absorbed and stored all kinds of energy before shooting out red light beams with his eyes – these abilities still belonged to the category of “unavailable” trash.

After that was the brawny guy’s Elementary Muscle Enhancement and Elementary Martial Arts. Luke had already learned Angel’s Physical Enhancement, which was at least 50% better than what the guy had.

On the other hand, the middle-aged woman’s mental interference ability could be incorporated into Luke’s mental abilities.

The mind attacks which Luke was experimenting with weren’t as effective as the middle-aged woman’s mental interference.

Although Inhumans improved very slowly in terms of their gifts, it was still much better than Luke puzzling them out from the beginning.

Lastly, there was the middle-aged man who had been shocked twice with electricity in the butt. Part of his stretchy ability could be learned.

The ‘poor man’s’ version of this ability which Luke learned couldn’t be compared with the original.

The original user could extend his arms to about 15 meters, while Luke could only stretch up to 10 centimeters at most.

But Luke was already satisfied.

180 + 18, wasn’t that close to 200?

A 180+ man – Max would definitely be pleased.

Putting aside this unexpected surprise, the biggest use of this ability was that it offered double resistance.

The middle-aged man had mainly been scared of the pain caused by the electricity.

In truth, the electric boy’s output could only just char his skin.

With his double resistance ability, he only suffered 50% pain and 10% actual damage.

Luke, on the other hand, had undergone pain resistance training and had tempered himself in actual combat. He could also use Muscle Control and Elementary Self-Healing.

Now that he had this ability, he could make the best use out of it.

In ten days, Luke plundered most of the superpowers here, but there were only a few that he could use.

He also came to several conclusions about the superpowers of Inhumans.

Firstly, no one had the same superpower.

Some abilities had similar effects, but the ways in which they were realized were completely different.

Secondly, it was very hard to control how superpowers were awakened.

This referred to how awakened Inhumans might undergo massive transformations, the most obvious of which was in terms of appearance.

For example, Gordon didn’t have eyes under his sunglasses – there was only skin.

Before he awakened, he still had normal eyes.

After awakening, he went through a painful process before he gradually adapted to the loss of his sight and started using his senses to “look” at the world.

Gordon could still be considered lucky; he could still lead a normal life after he awakened.

The plant guy who had turned into a tree was the typical unlucky b*stard.

After becoming a tree, he couldn’t enjoy most human fun anymore.

If he had been a shut-in, he could have holed up at home with the Internet, and just barely comfort himself that this wasn’t bad – he couldn’t get a girlfriend anyway.

However, the plant guy had initially been very handsome and had a lot of female friends. Now, he could only bask in the sun in the valley and read books, and try his best to grow a lush green canopy.

As another example, Skye’s Vibration ability had almost killed her when she first awakened.

The probability of death wasn’t low.

According to the old Asian man, one person had awakened a fire-type ability, and directly ‘burnt’ themself alive.

There was another who was able to turn into sand, and truly became dust after that.

Become ugly, become crippled, or die – these were the three risks Inhumans faced when they awakened, which was one of the reasons why few of them had done so.

Thirdly, the abilities of Inhumans on the whole leaned more toward the ‘eccentric’ type.

For people with water, fire or rock type of abilities, if they weren’t careful, they might turn into the real deal and die just like that.

Powers like electricity, shock waves, laser beams, and plant and beast transformations were also not very compatible with Luke’s hardware.

There were also some strange abilities that were hard to explain, such as ‘turning people into stone with a look’ or ‘lightning flash speed’… Hm, there were no such abilities in Afterlife.

But Gordon said that he had heard of Inhumans like these before, but hadn’t found them when he investigated.

Nevertheless, Luke had acquired seven abilities from Afterlife.

Except for the middle-aged man’s unique stretchy/double resistance ability, the rest of the abilities were similar to what Luke currently had.

However, using them to complement another ability or to create a new ability altogether was also very good.

He ultimately dawdled for another five days until he was sure that he had cleaned up all the abilities he could obtain in half a month, before he said goodbye to Jiaying.

Jiaying was surprised. It had seemed like this man wanted to retire here, but he was leaving after half a month?
