For Xiao Yefeng, Qing felt nothing, yet Xiao Yefeng knew that from that moment on, Qing was no longer the girl who cared about family ties. And indeed, this was true; over the course of three years, Qing transformed from a quirky girl who always maintained her youthful spirit into a queen-like figure.
During these three years, the world of ordinary people remained superficially peaceful. Occasionally, there were a few unusual events, but they were well concealed. Meanwhile, the entire circle of Extraordinary Persons had undergone a dramatic change. In the East, a faction supporting Qing emerged, led by the Metaphysics Society and aided by other nations. Of course, there were still opposing forces and figures in the East against Qing.
The West was no different; the Church fully supported Jie and Xius. The two sides were at odds, and any individual from either faction who found themselves isolated was destined for conflict. However, the momentum of this division was forcibly split into a tripartite balance by another long-accumulated force: the Perfect World. No one knew where it had come from, but upon its emergence, it gained the full support of the werewolf lineage. Nowadays, almost all Gene Serums originated from Perfect World.
In three years, Earth was no longer like it was during the first expedition of the Chinese Military Spirit. Back then, Gene Warriors were still a hidden phenomenon. However, over these three years, the existence of Gene Serum was no longer a secret; those with means and money could almost obtain a Type Five serum.
It was probably from the second year after the Venomous Shark was annihilated that Type Five Gene Serums began to appear in the bustling black market. Type Five Gene Serums were as familiar to ordinary people as guns; everyone knew they existed, but how many had actually held one? Type Five Gene Serums were akin to firearms.
The same danger came with this double-edged sword. With the emergence of Type Five Gene Serums, Perfect World redefined their classification from Type Five to Type One, establishing five levels of danger.
The success rate for Type Five Gene Serums was only fifty percent, and it was unclear what specific properties the injected serum possessed. Thus, an expensive serum might just be a mere hypnotic charm. Even if one succeeded by chance, they would not know which mythical creature's genes their serum originated from—only a general idea of whether it came from an aquatic animal, a terrestrial animal, or a flying creature.
Subsequently, the Fourth Gene Serum became known as the best serum available on the black market, with a sixty percent success rate and precise genetic origins. However, obtaining serums ranked from Three to One-Number Potion was not merely about having money; encountering a Type Three serum in the black market was akin to winning a lottery jackpot.
There was one piece of good news regarding Gene Serums: the side effects following Gene Fusion had been eliminated. This meant that consuming these Gene Serums no longer required monthly doses to stabilize one's genes like previous Gene Warriors did. Unfortunately, despite ongoing research by various factions, those early batches of Gene Warriors still could not avoid needing these serums to stabilize their genes.
Of course, with benefits come drawbacks. The strength of Gene Warriors activated by serums ranging from Type Five to Type Three was considerably weaker than that of earlier generations of Gene Warriors. Nevertheless, many people still took risks to purchase serums on the black market in hopes of becoming Gene Warriors. While society had not yet reached a point where everyone could become a Gene Warrior, it was getting close.
The impression ordinary people had of Gene Warriors began after a disaster struck their world. During an earthquake, a Gene Warrior who had consumed a Gene Serum and acquired rare elephant-like genes suddenly transformed and held up a falling giant tree, saving several lives—a moment captured live on national television.
Thus began a wave of commentary surrounding the emergence of Gene Warriors—both positive and negative. However, rumors could never withstand the erosion of time; ultimately, people accepted the existence of Gene Warriors. After all, just as some people owned guns in society—what could you do about it?
However, the emergence of the Gene Serum significantly enhanced the combat capabilities of the three factions. With the continuous use of Enhanced Gene Serum, Gene Warriors were constantly utilizing upgraded potions to stimulate their genes. The Gene Warriors grew increasingly powerful, and those with strong defensive abilities were able to completely undergo Beastification, allowing them to withstand even some weaker bullets.
The most crucial development began with the third serum, as Gene Serum was no longer limited to animal genes. Thanks to the efforts of brilliant researchers, various enhancement potions tailored to specific directions emerged. Importantly, these potions had no mortality rate; there was only a failure rate, meaning that Gene Warriors would not face death after consumption but might simply waste the potion without gaining any enhancements.
As a result, some already powerful Gene Warriors opted for strength-enhancing potions. At this moment, Gene Warriors had completely replaced the agile Special Forces. A Leopard Gene Warrior could easily take on five opponents without even choosing to enhance itself with potions. Consequently, some countries had fully aligned their military forces with the Gene Warriors.
On a vast grassland, a man clad in scales and wielding a longsword was engaged in battle with a group of Beastified soldiers. The Chinese Military Spirit's Suppressor was not a proprietary technology; after several attempts, it quickly caught the attention of Perfect World. After incurring significant costs, Perfect World also developed their own Suppressor. By now, all factions' Gene Warriors were equipped with Suppressors.
The Chinese Military Spirit's Suppressor had already been upgraded; it could control heart rate fluctuations without being implanted in the body, thereby reducing physical strain. However, that was beside the point. The man wielding the longsword found himself surrounded by Beastified soldiers armed with various Alloy Weapons.
"Intruder, surrender and come with me! You might just leave here in one piece!" shouted a soldier with sharp teeth and a hairy face. This individual was clearly a Canine Gene Warrior, but unlike before, his weapon was no longer his claws; instead, he wielded Alloy Claw Gauntlets shaped like beastly claws. A faint Aura shimmered on the Claw Gauntlet, and five light yellow dots glimmered on the extended metal claws.
Do not underestimate those five dots on the claws. As he spoke, he lunged at the man with the longsword, who managed to evade the attack. However, the rock behind him became collateral damage; five smooth claw marks appeared on its surface—this was the product of technology combined with Gene Warriors: Laser Weapons! Its only weakness was that it could not fire if obstructed by machinery; however, sacrificing this aspect granted it formidable offensive power.
Having dodged that claw strike, the man swung his sword at the soldier attempting to ambush him from behind and said, "Do you think I'm an idiot? Surrendering means death; who would give up?" As he spoke, a Light Blade illuminated along his sword's edge. Unlike the appearance of laser claws, this Light Blade radiated a gentle glow akin to sunlight. When sword met shield, it sliced through like an Electromagnetic Shield within Atlantis Ruins.
"Heart!" The soldier equipped with Claw Gauntlets clearly held a captain-level position. Seeing the power of the man's weapon, he immediately kicked at him. The man realized he had no choice but to abandon his attack and instead parried with his sword to block the kick, saving himself from being ambushed by another soldier wielding a shield.
"You leave now; I won't pursue you," said the man with the longsword.
"Dream on! You don't seem like an ordinary person; you're probably here to steal advanced Gene Serum formulas from one of the two major factions! No matter what happens, you cannot linger!" The soldier charged at him.
At that moment, the man shook his head and replied, "Can't we reach an understanding? I'm just looking for a few people!"
"Die!" A Laser Sword came from a diagonal rear attack, clearly showing that the attacker held nothing back. The man had barely finished speaking when the assault began.
Just as the Laser Sword was about to slice through him, a Palm-Sized Copper Mirror appeared in the man's hand. A flash of Golden Cyan Light shimmered across the mirror's surface, effortlessly deflecting the seemingly invincible cutting power of the Laser Sword. With any chance for reconciliation gone, he no longer needed to hold back. He flipped the sword and unleashed a Spirit Blade that shot forth, directly severing the throat of the attacker.
Under the fatal strike, the death of his teammate beside him seemed to have no effect on the others, perhaps they had already grown numb to such losses. The captain's Claw Gauntlet lunged toward the man's chest while three others positioned their weapons at critical points: neck, heart, and back—each aimed at a lethal spot.
At that moment, the man wielding the sword threw out a Yellow Talisman Paper. The talisman transformed into a ball of flames, instantly enveloping the five surrounding individuals in a cloud of dark mist. Four muffled groans echoed out, and as the mist dissipated, the man with the sword glanced at the five bodies lying on the ground and shook his head. He swiftly captured their drifting souls and stuffed them into his Spirit Platform.
A wooden door opened with a flash, and before the five ghosts could react, they were sucked into a swirling vortex. The man who had orchestrated everything from last night retracted his sword into the Jade Ring on his finger and quickly left in a specific direction. Just minutes later, a convoy had already surrounded the area.
"Captain! Team Four has been completely wiped out; the attacker is likely an Extraordinary Person. There are remnants of Qi at the scene!" said a soldier who had activated his Half-Beast Transformation. His ears elongated and his nose grew larger, indicating he was also a canine Gene Warrior based on his physical traits.
"Have they already been discovered? An Extraordinary Person? I wonder which side they belong to? Report immediately to Divine Young Master; our Three Bases have been compromised, and the special agents are in danger!" The leader stated from atop a vehicle as someone nearby began to make contact.
