Chapter 2459 Enhancing Overall Strength (2)

Zhang Yi sat in the main seat, with more than a dozen black, high-tech metal boxes in front of him.

These boxes contain some of the resources he obtained from the Lunarian Kingdom—real things that could change the fate of those around him.

He looked around at everyone and smiled slightly.

"I called you all here today to give Tianhai's core team a comprehensive upgrade."

"The battles to come will not rely on me alone. If any link goes wrong, the entire Huaxu Kingdom could be put on the defensive."

After saying that, he raised his hand and waved it, and the metal boxes slid automatically to each person's front.

"These resources are so valuable that countries around the world are fighting tooth and nail for them, and they can quickly enhance the strength of superhumans."

Zhang Yi didn't say something, especially to those around him who were considered "superhumans" with very low levels of ability development.

These resources have a greater impact.

Xu Pangzi and the others naturally took the box, and Deng Shentong and Baili Changqing quickly followed suit.

Lu Keran opened the box first, and her eyes lit up immediately.

"This is... an energy body with extremely high purity?!"

She looked up, her expression one of shock: "Even the Cangyuan Clan might not be able to refine energy crystals of this purity!"

Zhang Yi smiled and said, "This was given to me by the Lunarian Empire. It's the 'Ether Fragment Essence' that they extracted, which can be used directly to strengthen or even reshape the Inhuman's ability core."

However, the absorption rate must be carefully controlled; it cannot exceed one percent at a time, otherwise,” he said, circling his finger around his temple, “your brain will crash!”

This is also why Zhang Yi didn't absorb all the power himself.

Now, he often enters the Sea of ​​Ether in his dreams.

Beyond communicating with Ling, the main focus is on adapting to this power—the ether assimilates humanity.

There is a movie called "Lucy" which tells the story of how, after humans evolve at an extremely rapid pace, they gradually lose their emotions, their five senses, and eventually their sense of self.

Similarly, if an alien absorbs ether fragments too quickly, they are prone to losing themselves and becoming a vessel for the ether.

Zhang Yi didn't want to become stronger but also become a monster without humanity—in fantasy novels, this seems to be called a Heavenly Puppet.

Fatty Xu's eyes nearly popped out of his head as he looked at his share: "Damn it! Can't you give me a little more of this stuff? I've never done anything good in my life, I just want to live a couple more years!"

Zhang Yi couldn't help but laugh: "With your build, it's already a miracle you can digest this little bit."

"But don't worry, I'll personally guide you on how to use it. Just don't do anything stupid and you won't die."

Hua Hua lay on the sofa, her tail wagging back and forth, her eyes sparkling as she looked at the energy box on the table.

It let out a "meow," and glistening saliva even dripped from the corner of its mouth.

Its wild instincts made it want to swallow it whole.

Zhang Yi reached out and flicked its forehead: "Don't eat random things. Just lick it a couple of times when you have nothing to do. This stuff needs to be digested slowly."

Hua Hua meowed pitifully, then turned around and lay on the sofa armrest, pretending to be dead.

Li Yangyang looked at Zhang Yi quietly, seemingly hesitating about something.

Zhang Yi saw through her thoughts, smiled gently, and took out a transparent glass bottle from his pocket.

A soft ray of light floated in the bottle, like flowing moonlight, serene and sacred.

"I saved this for you specially."

"The pure etheric source, also known as the Spirit of Ritual."

Li Yangyang was stunned for a moment, her eyes flashing with shock and unease.

"Me? Can I use something like this? It's too precious."

Zhang Yi shook his head slightly: "What's precious isn't material things, but people. Now that you've joined our team, you should do your part."

He looked at Fatty Xu and said meaningfully, "Be nice to him, this guy doesn't have any bad intentions. If possible, cheat on him without anyone knowing. Sometimes hiding the truth is a kind of kindness."

Fatty Xu was initially quite grateful to Zhang Yi, but upon hearing these words, he immediately became displeased.

"No, prison guard! If you say that, I have to argue with you. Why should I be the one wearing a green hat?"

Zhang Yi sighed, patted Fatty Xu on the shoulder, and said to him seriously, "You should know your place. You're not a handsome and talented guy like me."

Fatty Xu retorted, sticking his neck out, "But I'm capable!"

ability……

Zhang Yi sneered: "Taking medicine counts too?"

"How can the matter of anime/manga not be taken into account?"

The two bickered every day, and everyone was used to it.

Li Yangyang bit her lip and solemnly accepted the radiant spirit of origin.

"I won't let you down."

Zhang Yi nodded, his gaze sweeping over the crowd.

"You are all the people I trust the most."

"From today onwards, focus on your cultivation. I will personally guide you on your path and ensure that no one encounters any problems during your advancement."

……

Three days later.

Inside the training hall of Tianhai Fortress, more than two hundred people gathered in a grand manner, looking up at Zhang Yi on the podium in the tiered hall.

The entire huge hall was filled with Zhang Yi's elite troops.

They were all gifted individuals selected through Yang Xinxin's "Heart-Questioning Arrow," and they were also the most loyal group of people in Tianhai City.

This includes, but is not limited to, the core members around Zhang Yi such as Fatty Xu and Uncle You, as well as Deng Shentong, Baili Changqing, the entire Shadow Squad, and the newly introduced superhumans with extremely high loyalty.

For Zhang Yi, they were all familiar faces.

For example, Xiao Honglian, Zhuge Qingting, Lu Dahai, Xing Tian and others have been quietly doing defense work in Tianhai City for many years.

At this moment, everyone held their breath and focused.

On the training platform, Zhang Yi, dressed in a black and gold combat uniform, stood calmly, his voice clear and powerful, echoing throughout the hall:

"Today, I will teach you how to master the true power within yourselves!"

He slowly stretched out his hand, and a black energy bloomed at his fingertips, transforming into a three-dimensional projection of flowing stars.

"Superpowers, in essence, do not come from the physical body, but from the mind."

"Meditation is a bridge connecting the mind with the etheric world."

“Every grain of dust in the universe is created by the power of ether. They are products of nothingness, the result of the nothingness of ether [conceptualization].

"After awakening the power of the ether fragments, one will generate a [superpower] that can influence the material world more strongly and effectively than that of ordinary people."

"What you need to do is feel the presence of the ether and resonate with it with your spirit."

"When your consciousness is strong enough, you can 'rewrite' the rules of this part of the universe—that is the essence of superpowers."

The audience below the stage all had their eyes shining brightly.

While recording the video, Xiao Honglian, a former subordinate, was constantly taking notes with a pen and paper.

Zhang Yi's lectures are invaluable to all superhumans around the world, and she will cherish this opportunity to become stronger.
