Chapter 296: 296. The Others (5)

Uncle Darien sighed deeply.

"Tell me the specific."

Second Uncle Kenan nodded and said more about what these researchers said about their request in order to dissect the mutated animals and also many other things related to these mutated animals.

After listening to their words, Uncle Darien sighed. "I can give the space, but we can’t possibly give all the meat after your attack. Based on how it’s going on later, we need to keep some of the meat. If they’re edible and didn’t cause any harm, they can be used for our food."

The food for humans have been decreasing. The base has been trying to introduce some other planting methods and so on.

Not to mention, those who had abilities related to wood, plants, and water were all gathered together. Even though their number was still in single digit, but it was still something at the very least.

It was only after their investigation that they found out that most people with elemental abilities have many varieties.

The wood alone was all very different.

For example, he was unable to create wood with his ability and required so many to even make a very small piece. He also tried to stimulate the seeds but it was not possible. His ability leaned more to control the existing element.

Thus, Uncle Darien couldn’t help much with the planting matter.

Then there was another person who awakened wood related element. This man couldn’t control the wood but only producing variety type of wood depending on his imagination. Currently, he could only make the straight one but he hoped that he could control the growth in the future.

As for the plants element, there was also someone who could only control the existing plants but required a long time and the degree of control was very pitiful.

And the other one was someone who could only control the seeds.

Because of these varieties, they all realized that everyone’s ability was actually very different. Even if the element was similar, how they could applicate their ability in the end would depend on how the nature of their ability is.

Some of them were similar with each other.

But there were not that many cases. After all, more than half of the awakened were enhancement type who couldn’t control any element. The researchers could only do their own research slowly but surely.

Not everyone was willing to give their sample for the researchers to research.

Thankfully, the existing samples were enough to give these researchers something to do for the next few weeks. After all, there were many things that the researchers wanted to test just based on these samples.

"Well, what the researchers wanted to know more is whether eating these mutated animals’ meat can help us to awaken our abilities," Uncle Matthias said with a chuckle.

Uncle Darien nodded.

Not many people awakened.

Based on the rough statistic over the past few days, there were close to 1000 people who have fever.

But the people who survived were only 70% of them.

Many of them died because of the fever itself, not allowing them to have any awakened abilities.

And among those who finally managed to awaken, 10% of them couldn’t control their abilities well and ended up losing it again.

More than 50% were enhancement type, so they would never have any possibility of losing their ability unless they become a cripple in certain parts of their body such as their limbs or so on.

After all, most of their enhancement was related to the limbs.

Some of them were overall improvement.

But the rest were part of the limb, such as the finger, arm, or even palm.

So the number of the real elemental awakened in the base was actually very low. There were currently only 200 something who were registered and after seeing their information, it was found that the majority of them have fire element awakened ability followed by earth related element.

It was quite surprising to see.

And what they were worried was that these awakened people would end up destroying the base...

Fire was quite destructive.

And the rock control could end up destroying the walls if they were not controlled properly.

Thankfully, these awakened people were still weak. Even if they wanted to cause trouble, their candle sized fire could only last for a few seconds and couldn’t cause massive destruction.

It was still possible for them to start a fire, though.

Thus, the military was quite busy lately to make sure these awakened people didn’t misuse their abilities to cause trouble. The regulation for the awakened people were quite strict.

The only problem was that some awakened people would definitely not register.

Thus, the real number of awakened people in the base was actually not correct.

There would be others who were hiding in the base but there was nothing they could do about it. These awakened people were already given incentive to report themselves and if their abilities were good, the base would help to cultivate them.

For now, the incentive might not be too attractive for those who were living rather well.

But there was nothing that the base could do.

Their current situation itself was not very optimistic and they couldn’t spare so much resources for this.

Second Uncle Kenan stood up. "Now that we know the answer, it’s time to go."

"Alright, you have your own work to do." Uncle Darien waved his hand. He also still has a lot of things to do.

Thinking about work, Uncle Matthias’ face was a bit bad. He had a lot of work to do and it would definitely take some time for him to finish everything. The break he took during his awakening was definitely not short at all.

He sighed when he thought about it.

"One more thing, if Sunshine Base asked for help, don’t answer them." Uncle Matthias remembered something. Uncle Darien had some friends there, so it would be better to remind him.

"Sunshine Base? What happened to them?"
