Shen Feng believed Li Keyi's explanation and quickly asked, "You said before that you could find traces of the Corpse King. How can we do that?"
At this point, Li Keyi also realized that she had only extracted the extraterrestrial elements, but finding the Corpse King with them might not be so simple. She became confused and murmured to herself, "Could it be that only the Corpse King can use extraterrestrial elements to communicate? How do extraterrestrial elements communicate?"
Just then, Lu Xian noticed something strange. He quickly stepped forward and said, "These elements are emitting a special wave. I can sense it faintly. These elements are radiating heat. I think the zombies' communication is related to this wave."
Shen Feng frowned and thought, "Lu Xian can sense a wave, and his ability is heat sensing. Could it be that special abilities are needed to perceive extraterrestrial elements?"
With this thought, Shen Feng quickly said, "Protect these elements well. I'll go get people right away. Perhaps others can see something different!"
After speaking, Shen Feng quickly found a way to contact Xiao Sheng and Qin Kewei, asking them to bring as many people from the Ability Administration as possible to his location. The reason was simple: to discuss how to use abilities in combat. Both agreed readily.
It was nighttime. After putting down the walkie-talkie, Shen Feng looked up at the starry sky. In the past, Shen Feng would have found the vast starry sky spectacular and felt many emotions. But now, having learned the truth, Shen Feng felt a sense of awe, an awe for the entire cosmos.
Humans often considered themselves extraordinary, believing they were the most magnificent creatures. But now, it seemed that was not the case. A small meteorite could bring about humanity's demise. And in the vast, boundless cosmos, what else lay hidden, be it opportunity or danger?
"The stars are brilliant, vast, and boundless!" Shen Feng murmured to himself, looking at the sky.
Half an hour later, Xiao Sheng and Qin Kewei appeared at Shen Feng's encampment with over twenty ability users. They were then invited into the temporary laboratory. When they heard about Li Keyi's experiment, they were so astonished they couldn't close their mouths. No one had expected the truth to be this way.
Li Keyi shook the ability potion in her hand and said dejectedly, "I never expected that the ability potion I've been dreaming of would come from extraterrestrial elements. These are elements that do not belong to this universe. Those who obtain them are all favored by heaven."
Li Keyi now had the ability potion. She believed that even if she drank it now, Shen Feng wouldn't do anything to her. But she couldn't be happy. She had tried everything to gain power to protect her loved ones, but now, her parents were dead. What was the point of having power?
Xiao Sheng looked at Shen Feng and asked, "Why did you call us here? If it's just to inform us of this news, it seems like a bit of an overreaction!"
Shen Feng shrugged and revealed his true intention: "Quickly have your organization's most powerful detectors observe the extraterrestrial elements. Perhaps we can find the Corpse King's traces through this."
Xiao Sheng said helplessly, "I knew you wouldn't have good intentions, you're trying to drag us into this. But you've come to the right people."
Xiao Sheng turned and called out to two people, "Lu Yizhen, and Chai Kefu, you two come out. It's time for your appearance. Don't disgrace the Ability Administration."
Xiao Sheng called out two people from the crowd behind him. If the Ability Administration had many ability users, then it was true. There were many, whether they were combat-type or support-type ability users.
Support-type ability users were those whose abilities did not greatly aid in combat. Their combat power was sometimes inferior to ordinary evolved individuals. Such ability users could only be called support-type ability users.
However, while these types of ability users might not be strong in combat, their abilities could be of great use in some peculiar ways, just like in the current situation where detection was needed.
Lu Yizhen's ability was visual enhancement. Normal people could only see light within the visible spectrum, but he was different. With his enhanced eyes, he could see a much wider range of the spectrum. He could see light that many humans couldn't, and even detect if an ability user was using their ability.
Lu Yizhen stepped forward and looked at the petri dish. The extraterrestrial elements in his eyes suddenly became different. They were no longer the gray-white powder they were before but were emitting colorful rays of light, a situation that had never been seen before.
"These elements are emitting strange light. They are definitely not ordinary elements, but I can't see any other special circumstances," Lu Yizhen said in surprise.
Chai Kefu also stepped forward. His ability was electromagnetic induction. He immediately reached out his palm towards the petri dish and closed his eyes, carefully sensing the electromagnetic waves. No matter how weak the electromagnetic waves were, he could detect them if he concentrated.
"These elements are emitting strange electromagnetic waves, and I can faintly sense that these electromagnetic waves are echoing with something elsewhere," Chai Kefu said with a frown.
Upon hearing this, Shen Feng's spirits immediately lifted. He quickly said, "Brother, sense carefully. The place echoing with the electromagnetic waves must be the Corpse King's location. The battle is so fierce right now. We can only truly end the war in Yanjing by killing the Corpse King!"
At this moment, not only Shen Feng but also the people from the Ability Administration became excited. During the recent battles, the Corpse King had been continuously dropping zombies from the sky, causing chaos in the city and stirring up discontent among the civilians. This situation was definitely not good.
What was most appealing was the credit for killing the Corpse King! Undoubtedly, if the Corpse King could be killed, the war would be one-sided. Such merit would certainly make one a hero in everyone's eyes, not only gaining fame nationwide but perhaps even globally.
"No, my sensory ability isn't that strong. At most, I can vaguely detect electromagnetic waves within a radius of ten kilometers. I can't do better than that! I can only sense the general direction of the Corpse King!" Chai Kefu said through gritted teeth, helplessly.
Human efforts have their limits; this saying is very true. Just as Dio said, humans have their limits. Chai Kefu also realized the limits of his ability. No matter how hard he tried to sense, he couldn't find the Corpse King's exact location. He was a third-tier ability user and had encountered an evolutionary bottleneck. If he didn't break through, his ability wouldn't be more effective.
Hearing Chai Kefu say this, Shen Feng could only shake his head helplessly. Then, gritting his teeth, he said, "We've already used up a Corpse King's head. Let's add a little more stake now."
"What are you going to do?" Fang Qinghao asked curiously.
Shen Feng said to Yang Chang, "Go and bring the remaining evolution bases. Give them all to Chai Kefu to consume, so he can evolve to the fourth tier first. Perhaps his sensory ability will improve!"
Yang Chang nodded and quickly brought the sealed evolution bases, a small bucket of pale red gel that looked like jelly, but in reality, the evolution base had no taste at all.
Seeing so many evolution bases, most of the people from the Ability Administration couldn't help but feel envious. Lu Yizhen even said enviously, "Shen Feng, you really have a big business! You're bringing out so many evolution bases directly. We've never seen so many good things."
Shen Feng asked in confusion, "Can't the laboratory synthesize evolution bases themselves anymore? Why are you still so envious? I haven't mastered how to synthesize evolution bases in Yuzhou. I should be the one envying you."
Qin Kewei explained, "Shen Feng, let me tell you, one liter of evolution base requires one thousand mutated zombies to produce. The number of mutated zombies isn't that large, so the laboratory produces evolution bases with limited supply for combat-type ability users. Support-type ability users don't even qualify to use them."
"Oh, I see!" Shen Feng nodded, finally understanding the reason.
Jin Zijue sighed and lamented, "Since the establishment of the Chosen Bureau, we haven't seen evolution bases at all. I can only say that new generations replace old ones. We've become stepchildren. The reason is simple: the Ability Administration is not under the headquarters' jurisdiction, but the laboratory has a close relationship with the headquarters."
Shen Feng shrugged, handed the evolution base to Chai Kefu, and smiled, "I don't care about your internal struggles. Now, Chai Kefu, evolve quickly. Finding the Corpse King's trace is more important than anything! While you're evolving, the rest of us will discuss tactics."
Chai Kefu didn't stand on ceremony. The opportunity to break through the evolutionary bottleneck was right before him. If he didn't seize the chance to evolve now, he might not have such a good opportunity later. He found a camp bed and lay down. He could faintly smell a faint fragrance, but he didn't know where it came from. After he consumed the evolution base, his body immediately became hot, and he entered a state of evolution.
Seeing Chai Kefu's actions, Li Keyi couldn't help but frown. He was lying on her bed.
But for the sake of the bigger picture, Li Keyi couldn't make a scene. She shook the ability potion in her hand and said to Shen Feng, "Then you discuss the plan. I'll go to your tent to rest and drink this potion."
Shen Feng nodded and said to Chu Chaoyan, "Arrange two guards for her to protect her safety. Don't participate in the subsequent battle. Stay at the encampment. Wait for our good news of victory."
Shen Feng didn't know what the next battle would be like, but he could imagine that the Corpse King was hiding underground, and the battle would definitely take place underground. Fighting in such a confined space would be extremely dangerous. For Chu Chaoyan's safety, Shen Feng didn't plan to bring her.
Chu Chaoyan couldn't help but complain, but she was eventually persuaded by Shen Feng. She knew Shen Feng's speed. As long as he had no constraints or worries, no one could catch him when he unleashed his true speed. And if she went with Shen Feng, she would definitely become a burden to him.
"Then you must be careful. Remember, I'm always thinking of you. If you die..." Chu Chaoyan couldn't help but urge Shen Feng to be careful.
But Shen Feng reached out and covered Chu Chaoyan's mouth, smiling, "Don't jinx me. I promise to return safely. You take care of yourself too. When you've recovered, we can go wherever we want."
In the middle of the night, Shen Feng gathered over twenty ability users and began to discuss the upcoming tactics. To end the battle as soon as possible, the Corpse King had to be killed.
Qin Kewei's ability could play a significant role at this time. When she rescued Shen Feng, she could directly open a passage from the ground downwards. Therefore, once the Corpse King's exact location was found, Qin Kewei would be responsible for opening the passage.
Shen Feng suggested, "We should first go to the west to kill the Corpse King. As far as I know, Ma Jingshuang is underground in the west. The most important thing is to kill him. Once he dies, they will be leaderless!"
Xiao Sheng also nodded and said seriously, "I think it's feasible. When killing the Corpse King, be decisive. Kill the Corpse King as quickly as possible, without giving them any chance to react!"
Jin Zijue extended his hand, and electricity kept jumping from his palm, making crackling sounds. He became serious and said, "Don't worry about this. My 'Thunderous Might' will definitely electrocute the Corpse King in the shortest possible time!"
Hearing everyone's conversation, Qin Kewei couldn't help but step forward and ask, "Although I know a decapitation strike is important, shouldn't this matter be reported to the superior leadership?"
Zhang Jue heard this and immediately laughed, "Sister, can you stop being so obedient? If we report such important matters, what will be the reaction from above? A meeting? Or will the Chosen Bureau people replace us in carrying out this mission?"
Qin Kewei was speechless.
At this moment, Zhang Zi also stepped forward, linked her arm with Qin Kewei's, and whispered, "Sister Qin, Zhang Jue's words are blunt and crude, but they make sense. This is a huge contribution. If the Chosen Bureau hears about it, they will definitely try to snatch the credit from us. We need to prove through actions that the Ability Administration is the strongest!"
Qin Kewei nodded helplessly. As their captain, she had to consider her subordinates. Now that the credit was right in front of them, if they still reported to their superiors, she didn't know what the consequences would be. She could only act first and report later. As long as the mission was completed, she believed the leaders wouldn't say much.
"In that case, let's go all out. Let our achievements tell the superiors that we are the strongest," Qin Kewei said seriously.
