Chapter 270: Ability Users

Xu Qipeng's mouth twitched as he said, "Captain Wu, couldn't you deliver the full report at once? Is it amusing to get us all excited for nothing?"

Wu Lian shrugged and replied helplessly, "Commander, you can't blame me. Everyone started planning before I could finish my report, and I didn't want to interrupt the discussion. It will be very rude of me to do that."

At this, the room grew quiet, leaving everyone speechless.

"....." Your nickname of 'Silver Tongue Captain' is truly well deserved.

With a sigh, Xu Qipeng waved his hand and said, "Continue your report."

Wu Lian's expression grew serious at Xu Qipeng's words, and he said, "From my conversation with that woman, it appears there are others with abilities, and these abilities vary greatly."

"She mentioned her team includes a middle-aged man with incredible strength, capable of lifting a car with one hand, and a college student who can run extremely fast. She also claimed that these abilities didn't come from food or water. While she said she gained her power after desperately wishing for water, I couldn't verify this."

He paused for a second, then added, "I believe it's best to let our scientists study these abilities further."

The room fell into a long silence as everyone pondered on Wu Lian's report.

Xu Qipeng looked at a young man in his mid-twenties wearing glasses and dressed in a white coat and asked, "Professor Xue, what do you think about this matter?"

Xue Wenjie slightly pushed his glasses up with his finger and replied calmly, "This isn't the first time in history that humans have exhibited extraordinary power or speed. However, it is indeed the first time I have heard of someone creating water out of nothing."

"Since Captain Wu has confirmed that woman's claim, I believe we should seek her cooperation to uncover more about her ability. If we can discover how she obtained her ability, humanity might have a chance to survive."

Xu Qipeng considered his words carefully and nodded after a long time, "Alright. I will leave this matter to you."

Xue Wenjie had no objections and responded, "I won't let you down, Commander Xu." Trusting in Xue Wenjie's skill and intelligence, Xu Qipeng turned to Wu Lian and said, "Captain Wu, you will assist Professor Xue with this project."

Wu Lian saluted, "Yes, Commander."

As the matter was urgent, Xue Wenjie gathered his belongings and stood up. He looked at the others and said, "Everyone, I will take my leave first."

"Alright." Xu Qipeng said and watched as Xue Wenjie and Wu Lian departed together.

On their way to the darkroom area, Wu Lian glanced at Xue Wenjie and asked, "Professor Xue, do you think you will be able to figure out how these abilities are acquired?" _{freēwēbnovel.com}

Xue Wenjie thought for a second and replied, "I'm about fifty percent confident that I can do it."
