Chapter 40 – X-Sight
Chapter 40 – X-Sight
Wang Hongfei rubbed his eyes, finding it hard to believe the scene before him.
Just a second ago, he was in his office, gazing out of the floor-to-ceiling window at the city gradually awakening in the morning light. But in the next second, with just a blink of an eye, he found himself in this darkness.
As if a giant invisible hand reached out from the depths of the universe, gently caressing his head.
"The era of darkness is approaching, and the world needs a guiding torch. And you will be a part of it."
A distant and majestic voice seemed to drift from the other side of the void.
"Wang Hongfei, you will be bestowed with extraordinary knowledge."
Suddenly, he felt as if he was struck by an unreal data stream. A bone-chilling coldness permeated his entire body, followed by a flash of lightning in his mind.
This was a completely new experience that he couldn't have imagined before. It felt as if he had plunged into the vast ocean of data, with massive amounts of information flooding into his brain.
Knowledge and data, sparks of inspiration. It was as if a new antenna had been placed in his mind, allowing him to receive information from a completely new channel, a realm that ordinary people could never reach, as if a door to a new world had been opened.
His consciousness returned to the office, and Wang Hongfei was drenched in sweat, gasping for breath.
After catching his breath, a tremor ran through him.
What a terrifying power!
Even from thousands of miles away, the touch from the void gave him a sense of enlightenment, making him realize that he had never truly understood the world he had lived in for thirty years.
Indeed, the power possessed by the guide of the Infinite Alliance was beyond the comprehension of ordinary people. The immense power it possessed was self-evident, and the power it imparted from a distance was even more astonishing, not to mention the unimaginable wisdom it possessed.
Just with this little bit, Wang Hongfei felt as if he had been enlightened, and he couldn't help but immerse himself in the joy of this vast and incredible knowledge, as if he had come closer to the truth.
However, he immediately thought that the knowledge and technology that shocked him so much might only be a tiny fraction of the immense wisdom possessed by that great being.
What was even more terrifying was...
As he woke up in his office, Wang Hongfei was not only amazed, but also felt a strong impulse rising in his heart. It was as if countless new ideas and thoughts had been stuffed into his mind in that instant, lingering for a long time, giving him a strong desire to express himself, an impulse that couldn't be suppressed.
For the first time in his life, he had such a strong thought -
- He wanted to learn.
-----------------
Perhaps because of the fusion with Xiao Qi, Jiang Bei felt that his body adapted to new skills slightly faster than other members. Although it hasn't been long since he last obtained the ability of "Mental Barrier" from the conversion field, his name has lit up again on the interface of the conversion field.
That means he can acquire new abilities now.
"X-Ray Vision", the eyes of the Extraordinary Being with this enhancement can almost see through any entity, except it might not work well when facing lead materials.
This is an ability that Jiang Bei has not yet unlocked even in his Superhuman state. According to Xiao Qi, the abilities he has unlocked in his transformed state are just a small part of her abilities, and there are still a large number of various types of abilities waiting to be developed.
The quantum conversion field can accelerate the discovery of an Extraordinary Being's abilities. The abilities Jiang Bei activates and unlocks in the conversion field will naturally be unlocked in his transformed state as well.
Jiang Bei closed his eyes to digest this, feeling the new Extraordinary power his body had just received. He seemed to feel a strange energy churning under his eyelids, his eyeballs felt a bit cool, like the touch of a breeze.
After brewing for a few seconds, he suddenly opened his eyes.
X-Ray Vision, activate!
The first thing he looked at was the wall next to him. The wall gradually blurred in his vision, followed by the emergence of steel bars and concrete, and then he directly saw through the entire wall, seeing his own bedroom, desk, wardrobe...
...Damn, it's really dirty behind the cabinet.
His vision continued to move forward, inadvertently crossing the wall and obstacles, and arrived at the neighbor's house next door.
He saw a thin and handsome man lying on the bed with a shy face. A burly man with a full face of beard was pressing on him, laughing and taking off his shirt, his face full of wickedness as if saying "Honey, I'm coming in"...
Jiang Bei quickly withdrew his X-Ray Vision, but it seemed to be a bit too late. He wouldn't forget that scene for at least a week.
He shook his head, as if trying to shake that eye-piercing scene out of his mind.
No, he needed to look at something beautiful to cleanse his eyes.
With that thought, he opened his eyes again, tentatively turning his head to look at Xiao Qi, who was lying on the sofa watching TV...
Whoosh.
Two red-hot laser lights swept across like blades, scorching two lines on the floor just a few centimeters in front of Jiang Bei. The hot air wave hit his face directly.
Jiang Bei immediately froze, and the X-Ray Vision that hadn't been shot out was abruptly held back like water being cut off halfway.
"Oops, I accidentally let out a little," Xiao Qi turned her head, the lava-like red glow receding from her eyes, and tilted her head, "What's up?"
"No...nothing." Jiang Bei laughed awkwardly, "Have you eaten?"
