Chapter 52

After nightfall, Neptune quietly tampered with the surveillance in the square and completely removed Gu Ding and Lilliath's figures from the screen.

The two of them took out the giant beast's body and dug out the Energy Crystal. Lilliath put the body back, leaving no trace behind. Then, the two of them returned to the cabin.

Lilliath skillfully implanted the Energy Crystal into Gu Ding's neck again.

Neptune focused all his energy on the changes in Gu Ding's body. He wanted to know what kind of secrets Gu Ding had.

Sure enough, as he had expected, a special virus suddenly appeared without any warning. In less than two minutes, the Energy Crystal on Gu Ding's neck was completely devoured.

Then, Gu Ding's body changed again. This time, the change did not make Gu Ding break through to Rank 3 Gene Body, nor did it make Gu Ding's Cell Index increase again. Instead, it made one of Gu Ding's gene chains undergo a subtle change in shape. However, because of this change, Gu Ding had a second special ability.

Gu Ding vaguely felt that his body had changed, but he could not tell what it was. It seemed that his strength had not been directly enhanced this time. "Neptune, what's happening? Why do I feel like the Energy Crystal in my neck disappeared again? But I don't seem to be stronger this time. "

"Take a look at your body data!" Neptune said as he pulled up Gu Ding's body data again.

…

Gu Ding was a little stunned when he saw the sudden addition of an ability. "How did this happen?"

Lilliath looked at the projection and could not close her mouth for a long time. After a while, she asked with some doubt, "Why do you have an extra special ability when you're still a Rank 2 Gene Body?"

In fact, everyone would only have the chance to awaken special abilities when their gene levels were upgraded. This was because the upgrade of the gene level would sometimes be accompanied by changes in the gene chain. Such changes would allow people to obtain abilities. Gu Ding was still a Rank 2 Gene Body, but he had obtained a new special ability. This puzzled Liliath a little.

Not only could Lilliath not understand, but even Neptune could not figure it out. In his database, there were quite a lot of records regarding special physiques. However, new abilities could only be obtained during gene evolution. This was an iron-clad rule that had never been changed. Neptune could not understand why such a thing had happened to Gu Ding.

Although Gu Ding knew that the acquisition of abilities could only happen when the genes advanced, he also thought that some special constitutions would have the same situation as him, so he did not pay too much attention to it. Hearing Lilliath's question, he replied casually, "I'm not sure either. Maybe I have a special physique. Who knows?"

After hearing Gu Ding's explanation, although Liliath was still a little suspicious, she did not ask any more questions. She sensed that Gu Ding really did not seem to know the reason. As for the explanation of a special physique, Lilliath reluctantly accepted it. She was also wondering if Gu Ding would be able to evolve even more abilities if she extracted the Energy Crystals from the other four giant beasts.

In fact, she was not the only one thinking this way. Even Neptune had the same idea. He wanted to find an opportunity to implant another Energy Crystal in Gu Ding to see if he would awaken a third ability.

"Level 2 regeneration? Enhanced cell regeneration? This ability doesn't seem like much. " Gu Ding would have preferred to obtain an ability that would directly improve his combat effectiveness, but this was obviously only an auxiliary ability.

"This ability, combined with your own Rage Attack ability and Ultimate Arts, can greatly improve your combat effectiveness," Neptune had a different opinion. "Three-fold cell regeneration means that the duration of your Rage Attack can be extended to thirty minutes. It also means that the damage to your body when you use Ultimate Arts Level 5 will be reduced to one-third of the original damage." Neptune had a different opinion.

After listening to Neptune's explanation, Gu Ding realized that this ability actually improved his combat effectiveness in disguise. "Now that you mention it, this ability sounds pretty good."

"If we ignore the increase in combat effectiveness, this ability is actually better than Rage Attack ability." At least, that was what Neptune himself thought. "Abilities with permanent attributes account for less than one percent of all abilities. They are extremely rare. Level 2 abilities with permanent attributes are, to a certain extent, comparable to Level 3 abilities in value. "

"Moreover, if the 'regeneration ability' can evolve into 'super-regeneration' in the later stages, even if there is only one cell left, it can be regenerated into a whole." There was such a record in Neptune's database. People with super-regeneration abilities were almost immortal.

When Gu Ding heard this, he felt a little incredulous. He could not help but ask, "How can I evolve my Level 2 regeneration ability into super-regeneration ability?"

"The evolution of abilities is similar. The faster way is to inject the corresponding gene catalyst and catalyze the corresponding changes in the gene chain to improve the ability. However, the effect of the gene catalyst is not 100% successful. Generally, the success rate of catalysis is only about 10%. It also has something to do with the person's physique. Some people's success rate is even less than 5%. "

"The second way is through surgery. Let professional nanomachines modify the gene chain. However, the cost of this is quite high. Moreover, it can only modify general abilities. For some special abilities, there is no way to operate them because there is no corresponding genetic blueprint."

"The stupidest way is to use your ability often. The more you use it, the higher the possibility of advancement." Neptune explained the three mainstream ability evolution methods. Of course, there were some other special methods that Neptune did not mention because they were more unorthodox and some of them were not very legitimate.

"I've seen these three mainstream ability evolution methods on Skynet before." Gu Ding nodded and clenched his fists. "I don't know if the current me can fight that glasses guy head-on …"
