Chapter 179: Establishing the 093 Base - Part 1
Never expecting that the particle jammer, equipped with triple-proof functions and an energy-shielding device, would be so fragile and lack durability, Bai Yuxi cast a slightly worried glance at Xie Long.
Fortunately, he had passed out; otherwise, who knows if he would demand compensation? He had heard that this gadget was far from cheap.
A single round of saturated energy infusion yielded quite remarkable results.
Although the majority of the supernatural particles were absorbed by the members of the Seventh Squad, who possessed higher combat power ratings, Zhou Hao and the three new recruits still entered a state of "supernatural saturation." Additionally, including Xie Long, five more soldiers experienced awakening once again.
Through this experiment, Bai Yuxi further verified the hypothesis shared by him and Su Xiaoke.
In a high-density supernatural particle environment, as long as the energy within his body remained in a turbulent state,
it would not only enhance the probability of awakening but also stimulate the activation of his "100% Lossless Conversion Effect Field."
After discussing the matter with Su Xiaoke via telepathic transmission,
the female academic genius believed that the two phenomena shared the same underlying principle and were both related to the "co-frequency resonance effect" present on his body.
Having vaguely grasped the underlying pattern, Bai Yuxi felt that after a few more repetitions, he might be able to independently control the activation of the "effect field."
It must be said that the physical constitutions of these elite military champions were truly astonishing. The three new recruits remained unconscious for only a little over ten minutes before adapting to the energy pressure and waking up, officially becoming transhuman warriors with a super-energy level of F3.
As for the five newly awakened individuals, they merely took one or twenty minutes longer than the recruits.
After twitching slightly, Xie Long suddenly sprang up from a flat-lying position with a carp-like flip.
However, because he was unfamiliar with the changes in his physical strength, he overshot the flip and directly crashed face-first onto the ground in an awkward belly-flop!
Wearing his helmet, Xie Long’s awkwardness was still clearly visible as he scrambled to his feet in a flurry. Seeing this, Bai Yuxi chuckled and teased, "01, welcome to the new world!"
Xie Long, however, had no time to entertain Bai Yuxi's joke and instead excitedly began adapting to his new state.
Truth be told, these elite soldiers adapted far more quickly than Bai Yuxi and his companions, who had awakened from ordinary civilians.
After spending just a few minutes on the combat platform running back and forth, jumping, and throwing punches and kicks, they rapidly mastered the changes in their strength.
Upon learning that high-intensity combat could accelerate the growth of their super-energy levels,
Xie Long decisively asked Bai Yuxi to provide a truncated mutant snake for them to practice on.
Watching Xie Long lead seven new recruits in brutally and wildly beating a severed half-snake—which stubbornly refused to die no matter how fiercely they hammered it—
Bai Yuxi could only stand guard nearby with a sense of dejection, preventing them from accidentally getting killed by the dying mutant snake's desperate counterattack.
Fortunately, aside from the nursing process being a bit troublesome, this bunch of new recruits could not siphon off much "experience," nor did it delay the advancement of the Seventh Squad.
Once they exhausted their energy and collapsed,
Bai Yuxi, acting as their "babysitter," would devour all the supernatural particles within the boundary space and summon the logistics troops to clean up the scene.
Then, after everyone took a break and recovered their physical strength and energy, Bai Yuxi would perform another full-screen instant wipe-out, repeating the entire process.
This bunch of guys hailing from the elite forces were not only ruthless to others, but even more ruthless to themselves!
In order to awaken as transhuman warriors, they actually dragged Bai Yuxi and the others along, stubbornly enduring forty-eight hours inside the boundary.
As soon as they woke up, they rushed forward to fight desperately; once they collapsed from exhaustion, they were carried to the steel fortress to lie like corpses.
In the end, even Chicken Leg and the others were exhausted to the point of having to take turns resting just to barely keep going.
Under such circumstances, they actually managed to grind the special operations soldiers of all three squads into transhuman warriors!
Forty-eight hours for full-员 awakening!
To the extraordinary world, which remained stuck in a disordered and random state, this was simply an incredible feat!
Bai Yuxi's cheat-like ability to boost the probability of awakening possessed immense strategic significance for any extraordinary faction.
Once exposed, one could easily imagine their fate: they would undoubtedly be used as "babysitters" until the day they died!
Yet, since Xie Long and his men had already perceived the clues from traces they themselves had failed to conceal,
unless Bai Yuxi and his group intended to have a direct falling out with Xie Long and the military forces backing them,
they had no choice but to bite the bullet and agree to a certain level of cooperation with Xie Long and the others, even though they knew doing so might expose their secrets and plunge them into danger.
Now, the only remaining hope was that Xie Long and his group would honor their promises and guard this secret as tightly as possible.
They did not expect the secret to remain hidden forever; at the very least, it had to buy Bai Yuxi and his companions enough time to grow.
This was also the helpless compromise made by Bai Yuxi, Luo Fei, Su Xiaoke, and the others in facing the current situation after solemn and repeated deliberations.
When all was said and done, they were still merely a group of weak, probationary warriors lingering at the very bottom of the extraordinary world.
Before growing powerful enough through their own strength to withstand all the pressure they might face,
choosing a relatively mild ally as their backing was by no means an unwise way to protect themselves...
Thirty soldiers, three squad leaders, and two group leaders and deputy leaders—a total of thirty-five members.
These were the first batch of seed members for the future development of the "Yanlong Transhuman Special Operations Group," codenamed "093."
Although, compared to the veteran factions of the extraordinary world, this slightly joke-like "Dragon Squad" was still far too tender and immature,
it was believed that with the full support of the military, their growth rate would be a sight to behold!
Even though Xie Long wished he could cultivate all the members of the Dragon Squad into A-grade transhuman warriors overnight,
after a full forty-eight hours of overloaded grueling training, they had finally reached their limits.
At the stern command of Su Xiaoke, who temporarily served as the medical officer for the Dragon Squad, they were forced to stop and rest for recovery and recuperation; otherwise, they risked damaging their fundamental origins.
Fortunately, the baseline physical data of these Dragon Squad members was exceptionally high.
As ordinary humans, they had already reached a strength close to the F3 level. Upon awakening, they were infected by X-particles, directly granting them a relatively high starting point.
Then, aided by Bai Yuxi's "100% Lossless Conversion Effect Field," their growth rate was elevated to an extraordinarily astonishing degree.
Under normal evolutionary processes,
it would take an extraordinary individual about a month from the moment of awakening to accumulate enough supernatural particles to advance to the F1 level.
However, the Dragon Squad soldiers directly attained a high starting point of F3 right upon awakening.
Then, within a mere 6 hours, they advanced to F4; within 12 hours, to F5; within 24 hours, to F6; and within 48 hours, they advanced to F7! (To be continued.)
