Sky-cracking Rider

Chapter 80: Section 80 - The Female Executive Manager's Advice



Once supernatural abilities are awakened, they are essentially set in stone, with little room for growth.

Although the growth potential of magic and Battle Qi is far greater than that of supernatural abilities, their starting point is very low. A rookie who has just been exposed to magic and Battle Qi is definitely no match for someone whose abilities have just awakened—as the former starts at level 1, and the latter starts at level 95, there's naturally no basis for comparison.

However, all roads lead to Rome, and the ultimate limits one can reach are still confined by individual talent.

Ultimately, whether one is stronger or not depends on how their abilities are utilized and their personal intelligence.

"Even abilities within the same category have distinctions. The characteristics of your Metal Elemental Psychic Power need to be discovered by you, bit by bit. They are like treasures that have always been there, waiting to be found."

Hanna Gagel's gaze fell on Chen Fei; a defensive light weapon kinetic energy bullet was quite a practical characteristic.

If this young man couldn't unearth other characteristics of his abilities, being a natural human shield would suffice to land him a decent job as a bodyguard.

At any rate, blocking bullets at close range would be a breeze.

When Hanna Gagel said these words, she didn't avoid speaking in front of the Neanderthal tribe elder, Grandpa Barut.

In his younger days, this old fellow was a guard for the Supreme Council of the Third Era Civilization and might even surpass her in familiarity and understanding of supernatural abilities.

"Uh... what characteristics are there? Could you tell me?"

Chen Fei was completely dumbstruck, as supernatural abilities were a world away from who he used to be, seemingly unbridgeable.

The few talent tests he had undergone since childhood failed to reveal any supernatural abilities. Therefore, more detailed information was withheld from Chen Fei—big data and cloud technology would even actively block him. What he knew was limited to snippets of hearsay, which wasn't much.

For the average person, knowing these things isn't very meaningful and can lead to wild thoughts that needlessly disturb one's mood.

"Regardless of the type of ability, the first step after awakening is to determine if it's an internal control type or an external control type. Taking your Metal Elemental Psychic Power as an example, if it is external control type, you can control the metal outside your body at will, like vibrating, moving, deforming, fusing, extracting, etc.

If it's internal control type, you can give your body certain metal-like characteristics, such as hardness, conductivity, basic transformation, and sharpness, etc."

Hanna Gagel took out a coin with a face value of one Star Yuan and said to Chen Fei, "Now hold the horse stance, open your right hand, and feel this coin."

No wonder Old Master Barut said that the Toilet Step and practicing abilities didn't conflict—it turned out that one required physical movement while the other required mental effort.

"Ding! Alloy Body 7 grams detected, absorb? Yes/No|."

Eh?!

Besides the icon for "My System" in the top-left corner of his field of vision, a line of text dropped down from above, hovering inside the boundary, with a grey gear symbol on the right.

7 grams?

Chen Fei focused his attention on "Yes" and then mentally repeated it.

"Yes!~"

The Star Yuan coin that lay quietly in the palm of his right hand disappeared in an instant, more precisely, it sank swiftly into his palm and vanished.

"Absorbed Alloy Body 7 grams, composition ratio: Iron 75%, Chromium 15%, Copper 5%, Nickel 3%, Aluminum 1%, Molybdenum 0.5%, Titanium 0.4%, Niobium 0.3%, Carbon 0.1%..."

A total of over twenty components were listed, with percentages accurate to one-hundredth of a percent.

Impressive!

Before he even had time to ponder what this "My System" actually was, the mere user interface was already extraordinary, seemingly including a function for metal composition analysis.

Wait! A lightbulb went off in Chen Fei's head.

Damn it, the culprit behind the mess with Big Bear's AK has finally come to light.

It was indeed him... He felt like crying! ┴─┴︵╰(‵□′╰)

Hanna Gagel witnessed the Star Yuan coin disappear in Chen Fei's palm with her own eyes.

As expected... it was consumed!

The day she rescued Chen Fei and Shen Fei from the cave, she had noticed that Chen Fei's clothes were riddled with bullet holes, yet he was completely unharmed.

Similarly, not a single bullet was found at the scene.

At that moment, she had her suspicions, and now they had been confirmed.

The normal suppressive period for Supernatural Ability Suppressants is one month, with signs of gradual ineffectiveness typically appearing around the twenty-fifth day. Yet now, just eight full days had passed, and Chen Fei's abilities could no longer be suppressed.

The rate of inefficacy was unexpectedly fast and might be related to personal constitution. Such cases are rare but not unheard of.

Hanna Gagel asked tentatively, "Can you reverse it?"

Chen Fei tried to imagine such a function, but there was no response. Instead, the two lines of text that had appeared successively became transparent and disappeared after a moment, indicating they would not exist for a long time.

He finally said helplessly, "I'm afraid… I can't!"

It's easy to eat, but hard to spit out.

He looked toward "My System" in the upper left corner of his vision, but didn't dare to open it.

The system made Chen Fei feel ever more mysterious.

"Then, let's try one more time, don't 'devour' it, imagine it changing its shape."

Hanna Gagel took out a second one Star Yuan coin and placed it in Chen Fei's right hand.

Her counterpart's answer made her feel that the Supernatural Ability Suppressant might not have entirely lost its effect and was still somewhat inhibitory.

"Ding! Detected 7 grams of Alloy Body, absorb: yes/no|."

"No!"

Chen Fei still wanted to talk more about Star Yuan with this female executive manager!

Then, Emmm…

I can't squeeze out a shit!

The one Star Yuan coin in the palm of his hand didn't react at all, nothing happened.

"It seems it won't work!"

Hanna Gagel shook her head regretfully, and then said, "Too bad, your Metal Elemental Psychic Power seems to be of the Internal control type, devouring metal to strengthen yourself, you need to eat more and gain more weight, and become a fat person, increasing your body weight to maximize the advantages of being a meat shield."

Internal control types can only take care of themselves, leaning toward conservatism and defense.

External control types of supernatural powers have a broader range of applications and are more aggressive.

Hanna Gagel's Wind-type Psionic Ability is an external control type that can be projected outward.

In fact, most Wind-type Ability Users are external control types, as the free wind requires more space.

A small number of Internal control type Wind Series Ability Users are relatively awkward, with few characteristics and limited means, they should at least not give off an internal sensation when it matters...

Chen Fei said with a disgusted face, "I don't want to become a fat person!"

A wide body and plump stature make it natural to be more suitable as a meat shield.

He neither wanted to be a meat shield nor did he want to be a fat person, not even a nimble fat person would do, being heavyset really damages one's personal image.

The female executive manager shrugged her shoulders, respecting Chen Fei's choice, and continued, "That's all for today. Later, I will give you a practice manual for Internal control type Metal Elemental Psychic Powers.

Practice well, master it as soon as possible, and also, while the foreign delegations from Sky Dragon City are still here, I suggest you take the time to consult with that Metallic Dragon. To some extent, the Innate Abilities of the Metallic Dragons are equivalent to Internal control type Metal Elemental Psychic Powers. Opportunities like this are rare."

Chen Fei had a moment of realization and nodded, "So that's how it is, thanks, Manager Hanna."

Before his Ability Awakening, he couldn't access this kind of knowledge, but encyclopedias related to various creatures of Cangqiong Star, including the Dragon Clan, had long been selected for the basic educational textbooks on Blue Star.

Even if you haven't eaten pork, at least you've seen a pig run. There are many movies and TV shows on Blue Star and Cangqiong Star in this regard, and scenes featuring Metallic Dragons are numerous, whether they are heroes or villains, all without exception show off their abilities.

If you consider the Innate Abilities of the Dragon Race as Special Abilities, then their ability level can be regarded as quite high-end.

If Manager Hanna hadn't made this suggestion, Chen Fei might have completely missed this chance.

Hanna Gagel waved her hand and picked up Barut's Blueberry Wine bottle in one hand and a goblet in the other, gracefully swaying her waist, walked toward the door, and with a swing of her impressively curved behind, she strode away.

"Grandpa Barut, how long has it been?"

Chen Fei looked at the Neanderthal elder, feeling like he had squatted for too long, his whole body numb.

"Hmm, today's performance wasn't bad, it's been over half an hour," Barut said with a smile, pointing at the timer on his phone.

35 minutes 45 seconds, 46 seconds, 47 seconds...

"Ah!!!"
