Thirteen officers, including Su Qi, each swallowed a crystal. After thirteen minutes had passed by, ten of them had already opened their eyes, helplessly waiting. They already knew through Chu Zixuan that they were not gifted, and had not awakened any superpowers.

On the other hand, the three people who kept their eyes shut were Su Qi, who was in the process of enhancing her powers, He Yongjun, and a simple officer named Zhang Peng.

Everyone was viewing them with envy, knowing that these few individuals who were gifted would become superpowered after waking up!

Chu Zixuan had already noticed something unusual by then.

He realized that in the minds of those people, a mysterious zone had appeared that he could not investigate.

All the awakened ones, including himself, had such zones in their minds. However, with everyone else, he could easily ‘see’ their brains as long as he scanned them...

But, there was an exception!

Chu Zixuan stealthily glanced at Du Gang, and noticed that his brain, surprisingly, was like that of an ordinary person; his mental powers could penetrate it at will.

But the problem was that Du Gang was indeed an awakened one!

Could it be that he had already upgraded, and that’s why I can’t see through him?

At that moment, Chu Zixuan could only come up with such an explanation.

However, he took note of this event, planning to observe Du Gang’s situation again after having upgraded himself.

Before long, He Yongjun and Zhang Peng woke up.

“What’s it like? What superpowers have you awakened?”

The moment they opened their eyes, the other officers hurried forward.

Over there, excitement radiated from the faces of He Yongjun and Zhang Peng.

He Yongjun raised his hand and three Wolverine-like claws shot out of it.

“I’ve literally turned into Wolverine!”

Despite what he said, his face was filled with excitement.

Over on the other side, Zhang Peng clasped his hands together, and they instantly transformed into a massive metal shield.

“I can turn my hands into shields like this, one shield per hand!”

As he spoke, the two shields quickly split into two smaller shields.

“Zhang Peng, you’re going to be our meat shield from now on!”

“Hahahaha!”

Everyone congratulated and joked with them.

Wang Dezhen nodded, his brows were locked tight. He then voiced: “Has the squad for Nanyuan City returned? What’s the situation there?”

“Not yet...”

“No waiting then, make a move right away. Our target is Nanyuan City!”

“Isn’t that being too rash?”

The advisors of the brains trust opposed, hoping that the troops could act steadily. They wished to at least gather a special operations corps of superpowered soldiers before heading to the city.

“It’s alright, by then we can station the bulk of our forces outside Nanyuan City, and if worse comes to worst, we can send the superpowered into the city to rescue civilians...”

He knew that these brains trust didn’t want to go so early because they were worried they wouldn’t dare to use weapons of mass destruction in the city, which would mean tying their own hands.

But hearing that, it didn’t seem to be a problem. The Nanyuan Military District was originally in the deep mountains, not too far from Nanyuan a journey of a little over a hundred kilometers.

Hua Nation’s Command Center in the Arctic Circle.

Lu Zhou walked in with a grave expression, a lab report in his hand.

“What happened?” Yao Zhenguo saw his troubled look and felt a sinking feeling.

“From the research, we find that these dark particles are driving biological evolution...

“The bodies of these bugs are composed of substances similar or close to dark matter. If consumed, it can enhance physical strength, even cause awakenings...”

“Isn’t that a good thing?!” Yao Zhenguo questioned, somewhat baffled.

Lu Zhou shook his head, sighed and said: “For humans who consume these substances, most of the energy is absorbed by our brains, or ‘souls’.

Meanwhile, animals, operating on instinct, use it all to bolster their bodies!”

As he spoke, he revealed a set of images featuring tigers, lions, dogs, and cats.

“The bodies of these animals have all been strengthened to varying degrees. We’ve already found a North Chinese tiger that’s ten meters tall and nearly thirty meters long...”

“That’s great, Earth’s animals are fighting back, those bugs’ end is nigh...” Yao Zhenguo clenched his fist in excitement.

But the next sentence from Lu Zhou hit him hard.

“Uh, in the eyes of carnivorous animals, humans are the same as bugs – both are food!”

Yao Zhenguo’s smile froze.

“In the daytime, the bugs in the wild can’t hide and are basically free meat. Earth’s carnivores aren’t lacking in food so their growth and evolution could be pretty rapid!”

Yao Zhenguo’s smile vanished completely.

“This is indeed bad news...

“You know this is deceiving oneself...”

“Yes, I do!”
