Sky-cracking Rider -
Chapter 857 - 857: Section 851 - Aftermath
Like using the method of elimination, the true effect of the Supernatural Ability Suppressant distinguished Chen Fei's two abilities, and put suspicion on the Metallic Elemental Psychic Power.
A sentence, "... the already awakened ability, permanently disappeared..." forced another method of elimination.
The "Spatial Branding" is indeed a Special Ability, but it is not an awakened one, so it is naturally excluded beyond all doubt.
However, Chen Fei's Metallic Elemental Psychic Power could never have been granted by teaming up with another group of Supernatural Power Users. Shortly after joining the 911 Aircrew Base, as a newbie in the workplace, he had no conditions to meet those big shots or great talents.
Even if he were the biological son of the Lord of the Sky, and the Crown Prince of the Silan Dynasty, he might not have such opportunities.
Miyoshi Monk stared at Chen Fei and questioned, "So you are still a Supernatural Power User now!"
Setting aside the Metallic Elemental Psychic Power, even possessing a large storage space alone, Chen Fei still qualified to be called a Supernatural Power User, so he replied firmly, "Of course!"
"Haha, haha! Good, good!"
The monk let out a long sigh of relief and then burst into unrestrained laughter.
As long as he is a Supernatural Power User and can be considered as an Ability User, that is enough to succeed him in his job, giving him the hope of retiring safely!
Miyoshi Xuesen is an A-class Ability User, he didn't care about a mere B-class ability. What he valued was the qualification of being a Supernatural Power User, as the Global United Defense Committee would never allow a common person to take his place.
The monk seemed to forget that Chen Fei also had the Inherited Battle Runes and the Secret Technique of the Neanderthal tribe, making him formidable even without supernatural abilities.
The elite warriors of the Neanderthal tribe could likewise be categorized as Ability Users, though their numbers have dwindled over time. The peaceful era had caused Neanderthals to adapt to stable modern life, and the increasing number of mixed-bloods made passing on these legacies harder.
Were it not for this, the old Neanderthal warrior Barut at the 911 Aircrew Base would not have gambled his last chance to pass on his legacy to Chen Fei when he was dying, and it astonishingly succeeded.
It involved a bit of luck, but it was enough to let the old man rest in peace.
"What about your Metallic Elemental Psychic Power?"
The tension on Yan Ling's face didn't dissipate. "Spatial Branding" was given to him by someone else and survived, so what about the Metallic Elemental Psychic Power? It should have naturally awakened and couldn't have escaped, right?
"Hmm…"
Chen Fei hesitated involuntarily.
He wasn't sure if he should reveal his speculation to this caring lady and that ruthless monk.
Noticing Chen Fei's hesitance, Yan Ling seemed to guess something and immediately said, "If it's difficult, don't say it. As long as you're alright, that's enough!"
She was a considerate and kind elder who never put younger folks in a difficult position.
If it was hard to say, if he was unwilling to say, then there was no need to say. As long as everyone was well.
"Doesn't matter, this ability or not, as long as you are still an Ability User, you can take my place, hahaha!"
The monk laughed wildly, like the triumphant King Shan returning home with a big haul.
"Take your place?"
Chen Xiao'er and Yan Ling were surprised and exchanged a look. Neither of them had expected the monk to have such intentions.
"Uh…"
Miyoshi Xuesen quickly covered his mouth. In his moment of joy, he let slip his intention.
After all, he hadn't consulted Chen Fei about this beforehand.
Embarrassment surged instantly, and after a while, he hesitantly said, "You all know, someone like me seldom meets a good end. Finding a trustworthy successor is the only way to retire safely."
The thought of finding a suitable successor had to be disclosed to Chen Fei sooner or later. Since the cat was out of the bag, it was better to confess everything to clear any misunderstandings.
"What kind of things have you done to enrage the heavens and humans to need such preparations?"
As a temporarily seconded S-class Ability User, Yan Ling wasn't aware of the monk's background.
"Similar to Dongchang, Imperial Bodyguard, Blood Droplets, Hundred Riders, Ye Busou, Scoundrels, those kinds of work."
Chen Fei was no stranger to the nature of Miyoshi Xuesen's work. The monk had taken him and others through many dark paths; it was clear he was a professional.
But he hadn't expected the monk to secretly target him all along.
This is too much, what a designated successor!
Honestly speaking, Chen Fei had never thought about such matters; the two were merely partners in crime using each other.
"Little Chen, don't learn the bad ways from this guy!"
Yan Ling's gaze at the monk turned a bit hostile.
Chen Fei was a good kid; the monk was a rascal.
Damn it...
Under the gaze of the S-class Ability User, Miyoshi Xuesen felt uneasy.
"Mm, mm, mm!"
Chen Fei nodded like a pecking chicken, playing the obedient baby.
This caring lady genuinely wished him well, unlike the monk, who only schemed against him.
"Alright, you rest for a while. I won't disturb you."
Yan Ling gently pressed Chen Fei back onto the bed, covered him with the blanket, and gave the monk a fierce glare.
"I…"
The monk wanted to explain but all he got was a "Get out!"
He curled up and rolled out of the ward, thoroughly round.
The cost was merely a dozen minutes of lifespan, no need to report to superiors.
"Ouch!" "Ow!" "It hurts, it hurts...""Yamete!!""Bang!" "Help!"...
In the corridor outside the ward, a certain someone's continuous screams made ninjas avoid peeking out.
Yan Ling personally shut the ward door and murmured to herself.
"I hope this kid can truly awaken strong abilities in the future!"
Although Chen Fei didn't explain, she already guessed that this young man's two abilities were not naturally awakened, implying he was still an ordinary person, with unlimited possibilities!
-
Twelve hours later, Chen Fei regained consciousness again.
It had been forty-eight hours, exactly two days and nights, since his last unconscious spell.
He woke up from hunger, but his mental state was excellent.
Lying in bed, wide-eyed, it took him a while to get up.
Chen Fei was not in a daze; he was processing the huge amount of subtitle prompts given by Artificial Intelligence AI "Adam".
Flagship No. 2 and the First Airship Combat Cluster were hovering about one meter above the sea surface. The "Snow Mountain", a large Armed Magic Cube Warship, stayed nearby but had landed in the water, becoming a surface vessel.
Most of the sovereign combat spaceships had left for supplies or repairs, and more combat spaceships had arrived, strengthening the military forces on Midway Island and its surrounding waters.
The 0199 Fishery Administration Ship mixed in with a bunch of new buddies – big blackfish, armory ships, destroyers, supply ships, and even a surface aircraft carrier combat group carrying Crystal Jet planes.
During Chen Fei's 48-hour slumber, many things had happened.
The parasitic species made no moves, but the sovereign military forces of the Blue Star Civilization began to gather on Midway Island. The deliberately preserved "Wormhole Cloud" could be used for many things.
The parasitic species never imagined that Blue Star Humans would be so daring. Instead of focusing solely on defense like the Cangqiong Star Civilization, they set their sights on the invaders' home planets.
The history of Blue Star Civilization might not span as long as that of Cangqiong Star Civilization, but its entire history was a stark tale of wars, never at peace.
Even if it could end in civilization's doom, they wouldn't give up these insane ideas.
"'Adam', recover combat mech wreckage, strip intact modules, prepare to reassemble."
On his way to the self-service restaurant, Chen Fei gave orders to AI Adam.
Adam: Recovery and dismantling operations started, estimated time 1 hour 14 minutes 34 seconds, countdown begins... Current progress 1%.
AR visual assistance established a new project interface.
Before this, "Adam" had been in self-standby mode, listening to no one, maintaining only the basic operations of all airships.
The chaotic bridge was rapidly restored before the naked eye, and three-dimensional holographic projection reappeared.
The massive hole on the floor quickly healed, shattered window pieces returned, reintegrated, grew back to the edges, restoring everything as if nothing had happened.
Running a household, saving wherever possible; while combat mech electronic modules could be exchanged for energy points, it wasn't cost-effective, unlike industrial production line products.
Chen Fei didn't want to inquire about the fate of the divine breed, pummeled to the seabed. According to Miyoshi Xuesen, dead meant dead; no need to delve deep.
If the sky falls, tall guys will hold it. Now that the tall guys appeared, others could relax and focus on their duties.
