"No matter how many types of seeds the Aircraft Carrier Base had, I only took ten of each. It’s barely a loss for them. Besides, 2,400 potions is a lot," Ren Yuanyang replied.
Qin Haonan was taken aback for a moment, then he nodded.
After dinner, the group sat together, chatting idly while waiting for their evolution to complete.
"Leader, I’m seeing reports on the regional channel about evolutionary fish attacks again. It seems they’ve gotten a bit stronger!" Qin Haonan said, suddenly looking up from his phone.
"As time passes, the evolutionary fish will continue to evolve, so it’s only natural their attacks will get stronger," Ren Yuanyang sighed.
"Doesn’t that mean our ingredients will get better and better?" Xin Wan suddenly chimed in, leaving everyone stunned for a moment.
’Spoken like a true chef, always considering things from a cook’s point of view!’
Ren Yuanyang smiled and nodded. "I guess you’re right. I’ll have Jin Ziyu catch some more for us from now on!"
As they chatted and laughed, the time slowly crept to ten-thirty at night. Their evolutions were reaching the final stage.
Ren Yuanyang felt his surroundings suddenly quiet down. He was enveloped in a purplish-blue substance that felt incredibly warm and comfortable.
After an unknown amount of time, as if answering some unspoken call, the substance frantically surged into Ren Yuanyang’s body!
In the next instant, Ren Yuanyang’s mind cleared, and a system prompt rang out.
[Evolved Human Race (Ren Yuanyang): Chaos-Type Evolver. You control the primordial elements of the universe and can evolve into any elemental type. Nourished by the Chaos Element, your constitution is continuously enhanced, exceeding five times that of a single-type Evolver of the same level... Enhancement limits unlocked... Biological enhancement fully unlocked... Anti-enhancement unlocked...]
Ren Yuanyang was momentarily stunned by the non-stop stream of system prompts.
"Leader, Leader!"
Qin Haonan’s voice snapped him out of his stupor.
Only then did Ren Yuanyang realize that Lu Jiamei and the others were looking at him nervously.
"What are you all doing? Is there something on my face?" Ren Yuanyang asked, confused.
"You scared me to death! I thought you’d gotten stuck on the final step!" Qin Haonan breathed a sigh of relief.
Ren Yuanyang rolled his eyes. "Even if *you* got stuck, I wouldn’t!"
"Leader, don’t be so cocky. All five of us became Evolvers without a hitch, but you, the one who was already an Evolver, showed no reaction at all. If I hadn’t called out, who knows when you would have snapped out of it!" Qin Haonan pouted.
Ren Yuanyang was taken aback and looked at the others. "Is he telling the truth?"
Lu Jiamei and the others nodded.
"It’s probably because I was already an Evolver. The Evolution Potion must have caused some kind of conflict," Ren Yuanyang started making stuff up again.
Qin Haonan asked curiously, "Leader, if an Evolver uses an Evolution Potion, can they awaken a second Superpower?"
"In your dreams!" Ren Yuanyang shot him a look, then asked, "Everyone, go ahead and introduce what you’ve awakened..."
He hadn’t even finished speaking when he realized he could sense the concentrated motes of elemental light around them.
For instance, blue motes of light swirled around Lu Jiamei, while Xin Wan had red, Qin Haonan had silver-white, Hua Lingfang had green, and Hua Wen had yellow.
"Leader, can’t you tell our types at a glance?" Qin Haonan was a little surprised. Why would Ren Yuanyang ask them to introduce themselves?
’When Lin Mu and the others used the Evolution Potion, Ren Yuanyang could name their types instantly. Can he not do that anymore?’
"I just wanted to hear you describe the feeling of awakening for yourselves," Ren Yuanyang said, quickly inventing an excuse.
Qin Haonan suddenly got mischievous. "The Leader can’t actually tell our types, can he?"
Ren Yuanyang rolled his eyes. "What, you think you’re special? Fine, you go first. What did it feel like when you awakened as a Gold-Type?"
Qin Haonan was taken aback. "Wow, you really could tell!"
"Duh. Now hurry up and talk!" Ren Yuanyang snapped.
Qin Haonan chuckled, then recalled, "There wasn’t much to it. As soon as the evolution succeeded, I just felt a lot of bright, silver-white motes of light around me."
"And then?" Ren Yuanyang pressed.
"And then? That was it!" Qin Haonan looked completely baffled.
Ren Yuanyang looked at the others. "Was it the same for all of you?"
Lu Jiamei and the others all nodded.
"Don’t tell me your experience was different from ours, Leader?" Qin Haonan asked curiously.
"I was already an Evolver, so of course using an Evolution Potion would be different for me!" Ren Yuanyang said, seizing upon a convenient excuse.
In truth, his evolution was indeed quite different from what Qin Haonan and the others described. He felt like he had been enveloped by the Chaos Element for a very long time.
The actual duration might not have been that long, but to him, it felt like a very, very long time had passed.
But according to their descriptions, Qin Haonan and the others seemed to have woken up the very instant of their awakening, never getting to experience the sensation of being enveloped by the elements.
’Maybe it’s because my type is rather special,’ Ren Yuanyang thought to himself, not dwelling on the matter too much.
"If you can’t awaken a second type, then it seems pretty useless for an Evolver to use another Evolution Potion," Qin Haonan muttered.
"That’s not necessarily true. I can feel that my constitution has been enhanced," Ren Yuanyang replied, using the opportunity to his advantage.
’Since I’m being nourished by the Chaos Element, my constitution will only get stronger. If I mention it now, I’ll save myself the trouble of explaining it later.’
’As for the type I’ve awakened, I’m not planning on telling anyone for now. I’ll just let them think I’m still a Wood-Type Evolver.’
