"Listening to you, are you the type of 'strategic' Hunter?" Sun Hang looked at Liu Li.
"Yes." Liu Li nodded expressionlessly, "After I got infected with the , the part that mutated was my brain. My IQ level is roughly between 220 and 230, and I can also actively enter 'overload mode,' gaining computational power equal to an entry-level supercomputer for a short period. I don't have any combat abilities myself, so I need you to protect as much as possible."
"An IQ of 230? Then you're practically a prodigy!" The Crystal Princess couldn't help but exclaim.
"I'm not a child." Liu Li frowned slightly, "I'm already twenty-nine years old. After my brain was infected by the causing mutation, my body stopped secreting growth hormones, and my size has remained in this state, unchanged for nearly twenty years."
Just then, Sun Hang's phone suddenly received a ssage.
The ssage was from Yang Qi, and its content was simple: "Never ntion the word 'dwarf' in front of Liu Li; it's his absolute taboo. When he was in school, he once killed soone because classmates mocked him as a dwarf."
Sun Hang glanced at Liu Li, then silently deleted the ssage.
Apparently, Yang Qi was worried that Sun Hang might speak carelessly and anger their teammate, which is why she specifically sent a warning ssage...
Celestial City Mysterious Creature Research Institute, safe house.
"Yang Qi, do you know what your recent actions resembled?" Song Yarong said with a smile while eating her newly cooked instant noodles.
"What did they resemble?" Yang Qi looked at her and asked.
"Like a mother worried sick about her mischievous child." Song Yarong said.
On the helicopter.
"Sorry, I didn't know about this." The Crystal Princess sincerely apologized to Liu Li—Sun Hang thought that this girl really had a great personality, and if not for her astonishing size, she would probably have many suitors, right?
Of course, there might be so who are into that...
"It's alright, I'm done, your turn." Liu Li said to the Crystal Princess.
"? My ability actually cos from my family, many in Chunming City know about it, but unfortunately, I'm far behind my brother. I've been a Hunter for two years and am still not a ranked Hunter yet." The Crystal Princess said sowhat bashfully.
"Family? Hunter Family?" Sun Hang had a thought, could it be that her and Tetsuhei's s are those kinds that can be inherited? And unlike the Candle Dragon, where only one 'Candle Dragon' can exist at a ti, it propagates through human sexual reproduction... mass-produces Hunters?
"Hunter Family... I've heard of it." Liu Li nodded, a hint of interest in his eyes.
"The our family is infected by originated from the mysterious creature 'Titan', so our family is called the 'Titan Giant Family'. The Titan is known to be one of the best-fitting mysterious creature s for humans. But for so reason, the Titan cannot be mass-produced through direct transplantation; only new infectees birthed through lineage can maintain a stable infection process." The Crystal Princess explained.
"So, the Titan isn't particularly compatible with humans; it's just more compatible with your family's bloodline." Sun Hang said, "Maybe you're the descendants of the Titan Race from Greek Mythology who've ended up living among humans."
"I wouldn't know. As for my ability, it's similar to my brother's, but its intensity is much lower. I can crystallize and harden part of my body and create crystal material armor and weapons outside my body... But the crystal's hardness isn't high, only at Mohs scale level seven, similar to quartz, which is why my brother gave the nickna Crystal Princess." The Crystal Princess said.
"Even without the crystallization ability, just with your size and physical strength, you could probably smash the heads of many mysterious creatures." Sun Hang said.
"That's what my brother says too." The Crystal Princess shyly smiled, "He says my crystallization is too fragile, easily shattered, and I might as well be equipped with a set of power armor forged from special alloy, which would be much harder than my crystal armor."
"Your brother is right. In combat with mysterious creatures, armor of Mohs hardness seven is far inferior to military-grade cha composite armor. You shouldn't rely directly on your ability to fight, but should find ways to combine it with modern technology to maximize your combat power." Liu Li nodded and said.
"Hehe, my equipnt is in the cargo hold at the back of the helicopter." The Crystal Princess said.
It was then that Sun Hang realized that the cabin of their helicopter was a bit cramped—it was clearly the sa model of transport helicopter, and the one next to them carried over twenty soldiers, yet this cabin only seated three people, and space was already tight... It turned out the cabin space was occupied by the cargo area.
"Alright, both the Crystal Princess's and my abilities have been discussed, so what about you?" Liu Li turned to Sun Hang, "I just tried looking up your combat records, but the system said I don't have sufficient clearance."
The Crystal Princess also looked at Sun Hang, her clear eyes filled with curiosity.
"?"
"If your ability involves certain important secrets, then you don't have to say it." Liu Li said coldly, "But if that's the case, we might not be able to cooperate with you."
"There's not much to keep secret about it; the mysterious creature that infected is 'Taotie'."
"Taotie?" Liu Li's eyes twitched suddenly, "Isn't it said that Taotie's is impossible for humans to infect..."
Sun Hang hadn't had a chance to respond when Liu Li rejected his own thought: "No, you can't evaluate mysterious creatures with common sense, maybe you're an exception. Your existence ans our understanding of the mysterious creature 'Taotie' must be rewritten from the ground up. I suppose that's why your dossier has such a high confidentiality level."
"Taotie? What's Taotie's ability?" The Crystal Princess, less knowledgeable about mysterious creatures than Liu Li, asked, "I only know from Xiazhou's ancient mythology that Taotie seems to be so kind of mythical beast..."
"Devouring." Liu Li answered on behalf of Sun Hang, then turned his intense gaze on Sun Hang, "I know you probably won't tell which mysterious creatures you've devoured, and you certainly won't easily reveal your hidden trump cards... so how about this, tell what ability information you're willing to share with us, and I'll develop the next action plan based on that."
"The abilities I'm willing to share with you... pretty much all of it." Sun Hang snapped his fingers, and filants of Taotie fungus erged from his fingertips, while a liquid tal bracelet on his wrist transford into a flying blade, twirling in the air before him.
"These are filants of Taotie, you can look up Taotie directly in the database for specific abilities; it shouldn't be classified. Additionally, I have the ability to manipulate tal, can shape it freely, and even apply an anti-gravity buff to make it float in the air. Oh, by the way, do you know about the KuiOx?"
"The 'Chi' of identifier B7?" Liu Li's pupils dilated significantly, "Are you referring to the giant beast skeleton discovered along the southeast coast?"
"Yes, I absorbed a small portion of the KuiOx's bone marrow, so I can also control electricity and weather, and use electromagnetic fields to accelerate objects... I generally use it as a travel skill, but my control isn't very refined yet, I sotis can't stop in ti." Sun Hang said.
"Taotie... can it really devour the KuiOx's ?" Liu Li's eyes were full of disbelief, "You're not joking with , are you?"
