Chapter 49

A crack began to appear on the congenital gene lock in Gu Ding's body. Under Neptune's watchful eyes, the crack rapidly expanded. In less than two minutes, the gene lock finally broke completely.

A terrifying energy surged out of Gu Ding's gene chain, and the gene lock that had been added after birth was instantly annihilated.

Gu Ding vaguely heard two clicks and felt as if something in his body had been opened.

"I've been promoted to a Rank 2 Gene Body?" Gu Ding clearly felt that all the cells in his body were dividing and regenerating crazily. Each cell contained several times more energy than before. The only explanation for this was that the gene lock had been broken and he had advanced to a Rank 2 Gene Body. Hence, his cell activity and cell strength had undergone a drastic change.

This change lasted for nearly ten minutes before it gradually slowed down.

"That's right. Not only have you advanced to a Rank 2 Gene Body, but you've also awakened a very terrifying ability." When Neptune re-examined Gu Ding's physical indicators, he found that Gu Ding's strength had increased by more than a little. He projected the data.

…

Gu Ding's Cell Index had increased fivefold, and even his Spirit had increased by more than fivefold. Moreover, his first awakening was a Level 2 ability. Although this was rare, Neptune had a feeling that there must be something else hidden in Gu Ding's body. According to the records in his database, it was possible for people born with genetic shackles to awaken their first ability at level five, or at least level four. There had never been anyone below level three.

Lilliath, who was next to him, also saw Gu Ding's data projection. She blinked twice in surprise. "You're just a Rank 2 Gene Body. How can your Cell Index be as high as 100 points? The Cell Index of a Rank 2 Gene Body was only 30 points. Even if one's physique was special, it would be terrifying to reach 50 points. A 100-point Cell Index was the maximum strength of a Rank-3 Gene Body. If it exceeds 100 points, it will enter the category of a Rank-4 Gene Body. "

"You even have such a high Spiritual Power Index? It was because I inherited the special ability from my ancestor's genes that my spiritual power reached 100 points. As for you, it naturally increased to 98 points … "

"Actually, I'm most satisfied with this special ability that I just awakened." "I was thinking that if I were to be promoted to a Rank 2 Gene Body, it would be best if I could directly increase my combat effectiveness. I didn't expect to actually awaken an ability that directly increases my combat power. "

"Your ability can only be considered ordinary." Neptune could not help but mutter in a low voice. He was looking forward to Gu Ding's awakened ability, but he did not expect it to be a Level 2 Rage Attack.

Lilliath did not make any comments on Gu Ding's ability. One reason was that her own awakened ability was very special and could not be compared. The other reason was that she had seen many people who had awakened their abilities above Level 3 on their first try. Gu Ding was indeed not amazing in this aspect.

"I think the most practical ability is the best ability for me," Gu Ding replied to Neptune. "A three-fold increase in combat effectiveness, a two-fold increase in Combat Armor, and a two-fold increase in Ultimate Arts Level 4. My combat effectiveness is at least comparable to a powerhouse with a Cell Index of 1200 points. It should be enough to kill an ordinary Rank-5 Gene Body. It's a pity that this ability only lasts for a short time. "

"There's no problem with your algorithm. Under normal circumstances, a Rank-5 Gene Body's Cell Index is between 300 points and 1000 points. However, don't forget that if the opponent also knows combat skills or has good equipment, their combat effectiveness may also be increased to a certain extent, "Neptune reminded him. He felt that Gu Ding was still a long way from being a real powerhouse. "Moreover, Ultimate Arts Level 4 requires a 100-point Cell Index, which is considered overload."

"I understand." Gu Ding was still grinning. "No matter what, it's enough to kill those big monsters outside."

"Are you confident that you can beat those guys?" Lilliath asked with a smile.

"It shouldn't be a problem." Gu Ding flashed his signature smile.

"Are you talking about one or five?" Lilliath narrowed her eyes and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.

"One is definitely not a problem. If it's five, I'll have to give it a try." Gu Ding was very frank. He did not know how strong he was now.

"I can help you hold off one of them and let you fight four at once." When Lilliath said this, she became slightly more serious.

"It's okay. I'll give it a try first. If it doesn't work, you can help." Gu Ding still wanted to test his limits.

"Alright." Lilliath knew that Gu Ding said this because he had a certain degree of confidence. Since Gu Ding was confident that he could handle it, there was no need for her to get involved blindly. When she thought about killing these five giant beasts, she would be able to enter the space dock and find a good spaceship. She was vaguely looking forward to it. "After killing these five monsters, we can enter the space dock and find a good spaceship. Then, we can leave."

"It's not that simple." When Gu Ding heard Lilliath say this, he hesitated a little but still told her the truth. "There's a powerful existence in the space dock that's at least a Rank-6 Gene Body. These five giant beasts are just minions guarding the door. If it weren't for the giant beast's orders, these five giant beasts would have killed each other. "

"There's a Rank-6 Gene Body hidden in the space dock?!" Lilliath thought she had heard wrong. "Are you sure?"

She originally wanted to ask Gu Ding how he knew because she had tried to connect to the space dock's network. However, her investigation showed that all the cameras had been destroyed. Hearing Gu Ding's tone of voice, he must be very confident. She thought about it but did not ask the question.

"I'm very sure that guy has a certain level of intelligence. I don't think it'll be easy to deal with." "However, no matter what, let's get rid of these gatekeepers first." Gu Ding voiced out his concerns.

"I'll go with you. I'll watch from afar. If you need help, I'll help." Lilliath was also a little worried that Gu Ding would not be able to handle five of them alone.

"Well, I don't think you'll have a chance to help." Gu Ding grinned.
