Chapter 938: Chapter 938 Xu Huo’s Conditions

Gao Xiaoyan clearly wasn’t just an ordinary relative, being the mayor’s kin alone wasn’t enough to command the obedience of players.

"Mr. Xu, come take a look at our W37’s training room." Having exited the elevator, Gao Xiaoyan led him with great interest to the nearest room.

The walls of this corridor were made of a special transparent material, allowing one to see the training inside. In the room Gao Xiaoyan mentioned, a middle-aged man was fighting against a mechanical alien in the dark. Xu Huo watched for a while and realized that they weren’t just brawling; the man was occasionally subjected to external restraints, such as suddenly being electrified and paralyzed all over, or the floor suddenly sinking, or being sucked against a wall and immobilized...

"A simulation of prop effects?" Xu Huo said.

"Exactly," Gao Xiaoyan nodded. "Only in combat can one gain experience; the combat experience from entering instances alone is far from enough. Moreover, in such situations, a single mistake could cost lives."

"There aren’t many geniuses, but luckily, ordinary people can make progress with a bit more hard work."

As she spoke, she walked forward, and Xu Huo followed her, briefly glancing into several other rooms. All were simulations of fighting with interference from characteristics and props. Naturally, they weren’t fighting real people, so when the trainees used props, the intelligence system would judge based on real-time data whether the props and characteristics were effective and feed this information back to the robots.

It was equivalent to a real-life simulation.

When they reached the last room at the end of the corridor, they stopped again.

Inside sat a young man with no opponent, simply sitting there with an expression of pain, his eyes tightly shut and forehead dripping with sweat.

A monitoring staff member handed the data to Gao Xiaoyan, "Ren Man’s brain is releasing power that is very unstable. Compared to before, today’s data looks even worse, with fluctuations dropping from eight thousand one hundred to five thousand five. That’s not a good sign."

Gao Xiaoyan frowned at the projected data wave that was fluctuating with varying strength. She looked at the young man in the room and said, "Super Evolution tends to occur quite by chance, not every player can hit such good fortune. Xiao Mantou went into an instance with mental interference two months ago, and after coming out, exhibited characteristics of a Secondary Evolution."

"Generally, certain indicators in the body will show abnormalities during Secondary Evolution, and there has long been targeted research on these indicators. Even though those scientists don’t know how to complete a Super Evolution successfully, detecting the changes before and after evolution is no problem."

"Usually, to complete a Secondary Evolution, the psychic power value must stabilize at over ten thousand instances. Xiao Mantou’s highest was nine thousand, but then it dropped and dropped again. According to professional research materials, once it falls below five thousand, it’s basically considered to have missed the chance for evolution."

"Isn’t there a professional to advise him?" Xu Huo asked, similarly observing the increasingly pained young man inside. "Isn’t there a scientific and targeted training? His condition doesn’t look very good, and rash stimulation might lead to accidents."

Gao Xiaoyan turned and looked at him, "I don’t want to see any accidents, so I’m trying to find someone who has actually undergone a spiritual Super Evolution to help."

Xu Huo smiled wryly, "Every Super Player has to undertake great risks, let alone those going through Spirit Evolution."

"No, I don’t mean that," Gao Xiaoyan denied. "Mr. Xu misunderstands."

"Super Evolvers are rare among players; if we were to look for one, it wouldn’t be easy to find on short notice. You see Xiao Mantou’s situation, he has more talent than those of us who rely on hard work."

"All we can do is to find more data, find safer methods, but this doesn’t compare to the help of a real Super Evolver. If Super Evolution could be replicated, by now the world would be full of Super Players."

"If Mr. Xu could do us this great favor, Base W37 City would certainly offer a generous reward, and of course, helping you pass is only to be expected."

Xu Huo hesitated briefly and then said, "I’ll consider it. Call the person out first."

Gao Xiaoyan nodded to the staff beside her, who then shut down the testing system and the room lit up, revealing Ren Man, who listlessly opened his eyes and, upon seeing Gao Xiaoyan outside, stood up and walked out.

"Sister Xiao Yan."

Gao Xiaoyan handed him a handkerchief, and then introduced Xu Huo’s identity.

Hearing that Xu Huo was a player who had undergone a psychic Super Evolution, Ren Man’s bloodshot eyes brightened momentarily, then dimmed again. "It might not be useful. The brain’s Secondary Evolution is inherently more complex than other areas. Just because he completed a Super Evolution doesn’t mean I can. It’s also possible that my evolution will just make me slightly smarter."

Gao Xiaoyan didn’t rush to comfort him, but said, "Your value was close to the threshold. If it were only an intelligence evolution, there wouldn’t still be no result. The analysis of the data indicates that it’s a precursor to Super Evolution. We’ve finally encountered an undeniable Evolver player, and there’s no harm in trying."

Persuaded by her words, Ren Man looked to Xu Huo, "Let’s start now."

Xu Huo, however, shook his head, "I haven’t agreed to help yet."

"You set the conditions," Gao Xiaoyan answered briskly.

"First, I want two Rank-B combat props. Second, I want to meet the mayor. And third, I’d like to stay in W37 for a while with you accompanying me alone," Xu Huo stated his conditions.

The first two were fine, but after hearing the third, aside from Gao Xiaoyan, everyone present lost their composure, especially Ren Man, who clenched his fist and tried to punch Xu Huo. "You wish!"

Xu Huo didn’t move; he was stopped by Gao Xiaoyan.

"Sister Xiao Yan!" Ren Man looked at her in shock. "Are you actually considering his conditions?"

"Even if he could successfully initiate me into it, I wouldn’t use you as a bargaining chip!"

"Let’s get this straight; even if you agree, I won’t consent. Better to miss this chance than that!"

"You can think about it." Xu Huo ignored the others and only looked at Gao Xiaoyan. "You know the value of a Super Evolver. Psychic-oriented Super Evolution might have a smaller effect initially, but if the talent is sufficient, once one becomes a Rank-B or Rank-A Player, their presence can equal an army’s."

Gao Xiaoyan considered briefly and then said, "The first condition isn’t difficult, but I need to clarify the details of the last two."

"Would you mind sharing your reason for meeting the mayor and the details of accompanying me?"

Xu Huo enjoyed dealing with smart people, "Of course."

"Out of respect, and because I need a guide for twenty-four hours. There’s no need for physical contact."

Gao Xiaoyan signaled Ren Man with a look to step back, who did so with both embarrassment and vigilance, not trusting Xu Huo’s words.

"I’m just a Rank-C Player. The premise of making these conditions is your willingness to cooperate," Xu Huo said with a smile. "Of course, if there’s no success, all conditions would be void, and Miss Gao would only need to let me pass."
