Of the Heaven-Sundering rcenary Corps’ three original Squad Leaders, Roger’s Genetic Optimization Level had now reached 95%.
Wu Yan’s Genetic Optimization Level had also reached 92%.
At their rate of progress, they would probably be qualified to attempt a breakthrough to the Blood Qi Realm in another half a month.
As for Xu Haishui, who had the lowest Genetic Assessnt, his Genetic Optimization Level had also reached 83%.
While this rate was a bit slow compared to Roger and Wu Yan, it wasn’t slow at all when compared to others. In fact, it was quite fast.
After all, when Lin Xinghai first t him, Xu Haishui’s Genetic Optimization Level was just over 40%. His Genetic Assessnt was only D Level, and he had been selected as a Squad Leader purely because he’d been lucky enough to awaken a Rare Level Superpower.
Now, less than two months later, Xu Haishui’s Genetic Optimization Level had reached 83%. This level of strength was by no ans weak; he was even stronger than many First Level rcenary Corps Leaders.
Moreover, at this rate of progress, if all went smoothly, his Genetic Optimization Level could reach 90% in half a month at most.
Of course, that was the ideal scenario. If things didn’t go smoothly, it would be normal for him to never be able to break the third Genetic Lock.
After all, for soone with a D Level Genetic Assessnt, the difficulty of breaking the third Genetic Lock was comparable to the difficulty Roger and the others would face when breaking their fourth.
Of course, the Heaven-Sundering rcenary Corps now had abundant resources and could purchase High Level Breakthrough Potions from the Military Departnt, so by Lin Xinghai’s estimate, Xu Haishui shouldn’t have any problem breaking the third Genetic Lock.
But whether he could break the fourth Genetic Lock in the future and beco a Blood Qi Realm expert was another matter entirely.
Besides Roger and Wu Yan, another mber of the Heaven-Sundering rcenary Corps, the forr deputy captain Xu Hao, had also broken his third Genetic Lock.
He beca the sixth mber of the Heaven-Sundering rcenary Corps to do so.
Over at the Mountain and Sea rcenary Corps, Gao Mountain’s Genetic Optimization Level had reached 99% a week ago, but he had been holding back and hadn’t broken through yet.
Besides him, Ling Xiu had also successfully broken his third Genetic Lock. His Genetic Optimization Level had already reached 92%, and if he maintained this rate of improvent, he might even be able to attempt a breakthrough to the Blood Qi Realm within a month.
As for the other three core mbers—Zhang iling, Huang Nuo, and Yao Cheng—their Genetic Optimization Levels had all surpassed 85%. Breaking their third Genetic Lock was just a matter of ti.
It was safe to say that with the rapid rise in strength of these five core mbers, both the old and new mbers of the Mountain and Sea rcenary Corps had beco completely loyal, with no thoughts of leaving for another corps.
After all, anyone could see that if the Mountain and Sea rcenary Corps maintained this pace of developnt, they wouldn’t even need a month to qualify for promotion to a Third Level rcenary Corps. Under such circumstances, only a fool would want to leave.
...
As Lin Xinghai mulled over these things, the massive convoy was gradually approaching the branch base.
Today was his last ti leading a team out to clear out Zombies. There were only two days left before the East Sea Academy’s assessnt.
He and Liu Miaomiao were to follow a convoy to the East Sea Base, over 2,000 kiloters away, early the next morning.
The thought that this was his last night here made Lin Xinghai feel a little lancholy.
The convoy soon drove through the city gates. As they entered the branch base, Lin Xinghai quickly noticed that the atmosphere seed different than usual.
It was just after 5:00 PM. Normally, many of the rcenary Corps wouldn’t be back yet. Even if they had returned, they should be busy taking inventory of their supplies and treating their wounded.
But a single glance showed him that the branch base was already full of rcenaries, and they seed quite idle, even chatting and laughing.
As the convoy drove past, these rcenaries would look over with complex expressions—a mix of reverence, sentintality, and reluctance to see him go.
Just then, Lin Xinghai noticed sothing else. He looked at Fang Tianhe in confusion and said, "This doesn’t look like the way back to our rcenary Corps’ headquarters, does it?"
"That’s right." Fang Tianhe nodded. "We’re going to the rcenary Plaza in the center of the branch base."
"You and Liu Miaomiao are leaving tomorrow, so I’ve arranged a farewell party. I invited all the rcenary Corps in the branch base, as well as officials from the Military Departnt. Even Director Wei and his people will be stopping by tonight."
Hearing Fang Tianhe’s explanation, Lin Xinghai’s confusion was cleared, but it was replaced by a feeling of reluctance to leave.
However, he quickly thought of sothing else. "How long do you expect this farewell party to last? It won’t get in the way of tonight’s important business, will it?"
"Don’t worry," Fang Tianhe said with a smile. "The feast will begin as soon as we arrive and will only last two or three hours at most. It won’t delay their breakthroughs tonight. And if we need to, we can always leave early."
In fact, Liu Miaomiao’s Genetic Optimization Level had reached 89% five days ago, which was high enough to break the third Genetic Lock. However, Lin Xinghai didn’t let her rush the breakthrough. Instead, he had her spend ti honing her abilities, especially mastering her Life Control Superpower.
Lin Xinghai hoped that when Liu Miaomiao broke her third Genetic Lock, she could simultaneously trigger a secondary awakening of her Superpower.
A few days prior, when Roger and Wu Yan were breaking through, they had both tried taking the High Level Breakthrough dicine Liquid. They wanted to see if, just as Fang Tianhe had guessed, the massive surge of Energy could trigger another Superpower awakening.
Although both of their attempts failed, they saw that success was possible and shared so of what they had learned from the experience.
This was precisely why Lin Xinghai had Liu Miaomiao hold off on her breakthrough and spend the last few days preparing. After all, she only needed to break her third Genetic Lock before leaving for the East Sea Academy assessnt.
In fact, it wasn’t just Liu Miaomiao. Shen Han and Gao Mountain were also planning to attempt their breakthroughs tonight.
If both of them succeeded, Shen Han’s breakthrough would an the Heaven-Sundering rcenary Corps would have two Blood Qi Realm experts. In that case, they would truly be the undisputed First rcenary Corps.
And if Gao Mountain broke through, the Mountain and Sea rcenary Corps would gain a pillar of strength. Then, even upon becoming a Third Level rcenary Corps, they would instantly be among the top ranks.
Therefore, tonight was of the utmost importance for both rcenary Corps.
That was why Lin Xinghai had asked with such concern, and after receiving Fang Tianhe’s answer, he was relieved.
As the convoy moved forward, they soon arrived at the rcenary Plaza.
This rcenary Plaza at the branch base was much larger than the one in Star Shield Shelter—at least four to five tis the size. After all, the branch base had no shortage of land.
Fortunately, the plaza was large enough; otherwise, it really wouldn’t have been able to accommodate such a massive banquet.
