Chapter 350 Continue to fight
Fifteen minutes later, Li Chenglong, having left the battlefield, arrived at Yunlan's place. After a fierce battle and multiple uses of dimensional travel, Li Chenglong was quite tired. Seeing Li Chenglong's fatigued expression, Yunlan immediately asked Yang Liu to prepare a hot towel and wiped Li Chenglong's face: "What have you been doing? Why are you all sweaty? Do you want me to wash your hair for you?"
Feng Tian, Li Xue, Zhao Liying, and the other special forces members all looked at Li Chenglong with concern. Li Chenglong let out a long breath, then took out the Dragon and Phoenix Spear and asked Yun Lan to put it away. Only then did he recount what had just happened to everyone. He said with some emotion, "I didn't expect that even with my current strength, I still couldn't kill the eight guardians instantly. I even had to use 20% of the energy stored in the G-Crystal. It makes me wonder just how strong their emperor really is."
Yunlan was furious and repeatedly scolded Li Chenglong for being too reckless. She emphasized that he must take her with him next time. Li Chenglong smiled and agreed, saying he would definitely take her next time. After resting for 10 minutes, Li Chenglong bid farewell to everyone, gave Yunlan a light peck on her cute little lips, and then used dimensional travel to leave.
Back at his command post, Li Chenglong checked his watch; exactly 35 minutes had passed since he set off. Zheng Yong approached and said, "Just now, one of our advanced ability users sensed a massive amount of combat energy being generated far away. Were you fighting something there?" Li Chenglong explained the situation and then said, "The zombie guardians are all injured, and I've also acquired a large number of high-grade crystals. I believe our battles ahead will be much easier. Inform Xu Qingming and Wei Huasheng that they can advance at a slightly faster pace."
Just as the two were chatting, Wang Jie, her pretty face slightly flushed, came to Li Chenglong with several documents: "Lord, please take a look at these documents. If you can sign them, please do so. Also, thank you, Lord." Li Chenglong had just discovered that Wang Jie had become a dual-elemental ability user of both fire and water. He smiled and said, "Congratulations on finally becoming an ability user. From today onwards, you are also a member of the Special Mission Support Section of the Information Processing Department in Dawn City. I will temporarily assign you to Section One. If you agree, I will add your name to the list."
Wang Jie nodded excitedly, "Okay, okay, I'm very willing." Li Chenglong nodded, opened his Noah 01 laptop, swiped his ID card, opened a management system, entered Wang Jie's name, and granted her some corresponding permissions.
After dealing with this matter, it was time for dinner. With Wang Shuang and the others gone today, Li Chenglong's command staff was significantly reduced. Zheng Yong even felt that Li Chenglong's streamlining of personnel was perhaps too drastic. Currently, the army headquarters, including the commander, deputy commander, political commissar, chief of staff, director of the political department, and all staff officers, only numbered about 20 people. Including the guards, it was only about 30. Moreover, during normal combat operations, the army headquarters only had one guard platoon responsible for security.
For lunch, the division-level and deputy division-level officers didn't need to come. Li Chenglong, Zheng Yong, and Wang Jie sat at the same table. The canteen provided three dishes and a soup at noon. The soup was a shredded chicken soup with exotic beast meat. The three dishes were tomato and egg, minced meat and eggplant, and celery stir-fried with meat. The rice was definitely the high-grade Dawn Rice that people with superpowers ate. Actually, Li Chenglong sometimes wanted to eat some noodles, so he decided that if he wasn't busy tonight, he would make some hand-pulled noodles and stir-fried noodles.
After lunch, Li Chenglong lay down on the sofa in the command vehicle to rest for a while. However, before resting, he contacted Lieutenant General Sun Tianlong of the Eastern Theater Command to briefly understand their battle situation. General Sun Tianlong said that their troops were advancing smoothly, and with the cooperation of other theater commands, the recapture of Beihe Province was just around the corner.
At 3 PM, the army set off on time. Their target today was Yingtan City, and they aimed to clear out the zombies from the city by the end of the afternoon. Leaving aside the zombie beasts, zombies generally move in groups, gradually merging from smaller groups into larger ones. While this certainly makes things more dangerous for ordinary people, it's much more convenient for the military.
As for the zombie beasts, there will be dedicated teams of superhumans who, with the help of those with sensory abilities, will engage in point-to-point combat. Li Chenglong's requirement for fighting zombie beasts and zombies is to exterminate them completely. As for the alien beasts, since they do not carry the virus, those encountered will be killed, and those not encountered will be spared for the time being.
Upon entering Yingtan, apart from the command post, the 2nd and 3rd Divisions of the Dawn Army, the information support unit, and the equipment and logistics unit split into three groups and began their respective missions. Li Chenglong had already used dimensional travel to thoroughly survey various parts of Yingtan City; the strongest zombies were only level 10, which his subordinates could easily handle.
With some rare free time, Li Chenglong focused his attention on his psionic factory, beginning the manufacture of storage capsules, energy rifles, and dragon tooth daggers. As for the super-powered anti-aircraft gun, since he currently lacked the materials, he would have to wait until after the battle ended and he returned to Dawn City to research it.
In the past few days, Li Chenglong hasn't stopped pushing level 10 ability users to level 11. Although he can only upgrade two people a day, it's more than enough for now. He estimates that in another week, those level 10 ability users who are capable of reaching level 11 will basically reach level 11, but level 11 will be the limit for them.
After two years of statistics and research, along with information obtained from Erica and Teacher Lena, Li Chenglong finally determined the classification of potential and the highest level that could be reached. Pure strength or speed-type ability users have D-level potential. Ability users with this potential can only reach level 10 at most. Even if they have their own abilities, they cannot reach level 11, just like ability users like Zhao Rui, Feng Tian, and Wang Bing.
Those with single-elemental abilities such as metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder, darkness, and light are considered to have C-level potential. It is easy for them to reach level 10, but without the help of someone with abilities like Li Chenglong, it is very difficult to reach level 11. They can only reach level 11 at most. These are currently the most numerous level 11 ability users in the Dawn Army.
A person with two abilities is considered to have B-level potential, but even among those with B-level potential, there are differences in strength. The highest level that B-level potential can reach is the same as C-level potential, level 11. However, it's much easier for B-level potential users to reach level 11 compared to C-level potential users. Li Chenglong used his abilities to help a B-level potential user reach level 11, using only half the energy of a level 11 crystal in one go.
A person with three abilities is considered to have A-level potential. A-level potential guarantees a promotion to level 12, with a further chance to reach level 13. Examples include the zombie guardians, who are all zombies with three abilities, the lowest being early level 12. The few ability users in China who have recently reached level 12 are also all three-elemental ability users.
A superhuman possessing four abilities is considered to have S-rank potential, with a minimum level of 13 and a small probability of advancing to level 14. A superhuman possessing five abilities is considered to have SS-rank potential. According to Teacher Lena's records, some SS-rank potential users are stuck at level 13, some at level 14, and some have advanced to level 15. However, according to the teacher's records, a level 15 superhuman only appears once every tens of thousands of years in the universe, while there are quite a few records of awakened individuals or superhumans reaching level 15.
However, Li Chenglong searched through all the information but couldn't find any SSS-level awakeners like himself. Last time, Teacher Lena's clone helped him fuse with the G crystal but then disappeared because it ran out of energy, so he didn't have a chance to ask.
Because the troops were scattered, and the afternoon was not enough time to clean up Yingtan City, Li Chenglong ordered the troops in each location to set up camp on the spot and to gather in the area where the command post was located as soon as possible after the mission was completed tomorrow.
