Chapter 301: Second Round Ability Pool
Containment Center, Temporary Command Center.
It was probably that the Anomalies hadn’t noticed, or they didn’t think this so-called Command Post could pose any threat to them at all.
In any case, from the Change of Circumstance until now, no Anomaly had come to Destroy anything.
Of course, even though the Conference Hall of the Temporary Command Center was temporarily still safe, the atmosphere inside was far from relaxed.
Minister Zhang, dressed in military uniform, stood in front of a Display Screen, his back straight, but his Complexion extremely ugly.
“Minister, takeoff preparations are complete. Please board the Helicopter and Evacuate immediately.”
The young Secretary and Guard stood anxiously to his side and rear, continuously Persuading: “The Situation can no longer be Recovered.”
Minister Zhang shook his head and said in a deep voice: “Summarize the current Containment Center Situation.”
The young man standing to his side and rear gritted his teeth but still obediently began to Report.
“According to reports from various Aspects, the following facts can be noted: the overall organizational Structure of the Containment Center has collapsed, various Areas have been segmented, and the mainstream Isolation emergency Plan has been activated…”
“Given the Appearance of Sequence 92—the Back Ghost, the ground Evacuation Route has been completely locked down…”
To be honest, everyone present were basically professionals who had dealt with Anomalies, and they weren’t without Mental Preparation for their own Death.
But,
What the hell is all this?!
With the Situation deteriorated to this Degree, what was the point of continuing to Hold On?
Staying in the Temporary Command Center any longer was no different from seeking Death.
At this point, even Minister Zhang couldn’t suppress the Commotion in the Meeting Room, with all sorts of noisy Sounds mixed together in chaos.
Minister Zhang took a Deep Breath, picked up the Teacup, preparing to use this method to try to keep everyone Calm Down.
At that moment, the door to the Meeting Room was suddenly pushed open.
Captain Mao rushed into the Meeting Room first, his face clearly Flushed Red from the recent mad Dash.
Lu Bai followed right behind, appearing quite Relaxed, not at all like someone who had just gone through a long run.
He looked around left and right, then chuckled and added: “Am I late?”
In an instant, the noisy Meeting Room fell into a deathly Silence; everyone present, without exception, stared dead at the suddenly arriving Lu Bai.
Clang~
The Teacup in Minister Zhang’s hand Fell, Tea Water Splashing.
Immediately after, Minister Zhang rushed to Lu Bai at a speed completely at odds with his age, reaching out with both hands to grab Lu Bai’s arms.
He wanted to say something, but for a moment he was Speechless, and could only shout Master Lu’s name in extreme excitement.
Lu Bai could Understand his Excited Emotion and proactively Inquired: “Where is the most Dangerous?”
After all, having held a high position for many years, Minister Zhang quickly Controlled his Emotions after a brief moment of excitement.
He thought for a moment, then said solemnly: “Master Lu, Evacuate with me.”
Dozens of Anomalies striking at the same time had instantly worsened the Situation to this extent.
In his view, this was no longer a Situation that Lu Bai could Control single-handedly.
“Why? Maoshan Daoism is for dealing with this.” Lu Bai smiled.
“I know this may not be Fair to you, but Master Lu, you are our only Hope now. I hope you can Understand.”
Minister Zhang’s tone was Heavy; Evacuation meant abandoning countless Civilians in the Containment Center—this was not an easy Decision: “If your Maoshan Daoism cannot be Inherited, at least preserve the possibility for Humanity to fight against Anomalies.”
Admittedly, after witnessing Lu Bai handle the Plague Doctor, they had sufficient Confidence in him.
But human Power has limits; they had also seen Lu Bai’s exhausted and comatose Appearance.
With so many Anomalies, even striking them down with one lightning bolt after another would take ages.
Precisely because Lu Bai had the Ability to handle Anomalies, Minister Zhang didn’t want him to Sacrifice himself here easily.
A harmless smile appeared on Lu Bai’s face: “Maoshan Daoism is not such an inconvenient thing.”
It was worth mentioning that,
When Lu Bai and Captain Mao entered the Meeting Room, a mechanized prompt Sound had already rung in Lu Bai’s mind.
[Current Points: 19, Current Rank 1/100]
[Ding!]
[Current Death Fighter Elimination Rate has reached half.]
[Attention! Second Round Ability Pool has opened, selection available.]
While talking with Minister Zhang, Lu Bai had specifically diverted some attention to check his Second Round Ability.
[Kaio-ken (Color): A self-created technique from the North Kai, a Means to multiply one’s Body’s Power, Speed, Attack Power, and Defense Power in a short time, with unlimited Amplification multiples, but it burdens the Body; the increasable multiple depends on the user’s Endurance.]
[Supreme Bone (Color): A Body Structure that grants special Talent, it is a Bone covered in Runes, which will ultimately grant the owner a Treasure Technique; upon selection, the Talent Treasure Technique will be randomly generated.]
[Spirit Bomb (Color): Developed by the North Kai, requires raising both hands to gather biological Energy, condensing a massive blue-white Energy Ball; the Energy Ball’s Quality is determined by the total Energy absorbed—once it hits the opponent, the stronger their evil heart, the greater the damage; if the target possesses a just heart, it will not harm them.]
In all fairness, the strength of these three Color Abilities in this round was actually quite good.
If it were another type of Deathmatch World, Lu Bai would probably only choose between the first two Abilities.
The main issue was that the Spirit Bomb Ability might not necessarily work on Death Fighters.
However, for dealing with Anomalies, the Effect was obvious.
Anyway, ever since acquiring [Load Game], Death Fighters could no longer Threaten Lu Bai; he didn’t hesitate much and decisively chose the [Spirit Bomb] Ability this round.
Bang!
The Meeting Room’s Gate was pushed open again urgently.
Two fully armed Soldiers wearing Camouflage uniforms burst into the Meeting Room.
Before anyone could Inquire, they preemptively let out Hysterical screams.
It was clearly noticeable that black patterns rapidly crawled over the two Soldiers’ faces, like some strange thin snakes.
Just looking at this Appearance was enough to make one’s hair stand on end.
The rotund Lu Bao Bureau Bureau Chief jumped up from the Stool in fright, decisively drawing his Pistol and aiming at the two Soldiers, shouting at the top of his lungs: “Careful! Everyone stay back!”
