Apocalyptic Flood: Sexy Beauty Neighbor's Midnight Plea for Food

Chapter 1455: Chapter 788: Superpowers of the Two Company Leaders

Liang Yuan was astonished that the board members of Kerry Technology Company actually had a gene recombination progress of sixty percent.

He couldn’t help but look at Wang Tian’an beside him, showing a questioning expression.

Wang Tian’an nodded slightly, and said in a deep voice, “The minimum requirement to enter the board is a gene recombination of 60%, and several board members have been here for several months already; some of them are probably beyond 60% by now.”

Liang Yuan frowned slightly, feeling a bit exaggerated.

He himself was a superpower user, and he understood the difficulty of gene recombination.

From the apocalypse to now, it’s been barely two years, and someone has already broken through 60% gene recombination?

He had a system to progress so quickly.

What are others relying on to cultivate so fast?

“Did they really develop some powerful gene recombination technology?”

Liang Yuan had to suspect this point; otherwise, there was no way to explain it.

He then asked, “How many members are on the board of Kerry Technology?”

“There are three, besides our chairman, there are two others.”

“These two were once masters dominating a region in Yu Province with formidable strength until they encountered our chairman, who finally defeated them, leading them to join our company.”

Liang Yuan couldn’t help asking, “Who is your chairman? Does he have any superpowers?”

Wang Tian’an said, “Our chairman is a foreigner named James, sent by the European headquarters. After the Great Flood, our company naturally lost contact with the headquarters, making him our sole top superior.”

Liang Yuan frowned deeply, “A foreigner, and you are willing to work for him?”

Wang Tian’an smiled bitterly, “Mr. Liang, this chairman is organized and distinguishes clearly between good and evil, treating us all equally. Unlike some shelters established by our own people, where everything is handled through connections.”

“Most of those shelter leaders employ only their relatives, regardless of right or wrong, as long as they’re obedient.”

“In comparison, Mr. James is much better, so initially, many people were willing to work under him.”

“Plus, he has a team of foreign executives controlling many access rights and confidential information, ultimately forming a shelter base built around them.”

“Of course, the more important reason is that James’s superpower is very unique, allowing him to maintain his leadership position.”

Liang Yuan immediately asked, “What is his superpower? What is so special about it?”

Wang Tian’an gravely said, “James’s superpower is called [Silent].”

“[Silent]? What does that mean?”

“It’s a spirit-class superpower. Under his spiritual power, all other superpower users’ abilities will fall into a [Silent] effect, unable to be used; even the strongest superpower users will become ordinary people.”

Liang Yuan was shocked; this power seemed to have the same effect as a Sealing Rune!

He appeared somewhat serious. It’s known that Sealing Runes are incredibly tyrannical, once enveloped, the superpower inside can’t be displayed, and the energy stagnates.

Liang Yuan didn’t expect there to be someone whose awakened ability was like a Sealing Rune.

If a fight breaks out, wouldn’t everyone end up fighting like ordinary people?

Liang Yuan immediately thought of another problem, “Wait, his ability only makes others ordinary people, but even then, what advantage does he have? Everyone is an ordinary person; it’s not guaranteed he’ll win, right?”

Wang Tian’an slightly shook his head, “No, the Silent superpower can silence opponents’ abilities, but his own superpower energy is not sealed.”

“That means his superpower energy can drive various superpower weapons and rune battle armors.”

“And once opponents’ abilities are silenced, they can’t operate their powers or activate any superpower weapons.”

Liang Yuan immediately understood; it’s equivalent to the other side being able to use superpower weapons while his side cannot.

This method of sealing is more flexible than a Sealing Rune.

A Sealing Rune is indiscriminate, but James’s ability only seals the enemy, not himself.

Liang Yuan asked again, “Can he target Silence at a specific person?”

Wang Tian’an nodded, “Of course, his ability follows his spiritual power. Wherever his spiritual power covers, that area will be silenced.”

Liang Yuan’s expression became much more serious.

This means that this person’s superpower can even have a significant supportive role in group battles.

“To become the leader of a faction, he indeed has the means.”

Liang Yuan contemplated how he would deal with James if he encountered him.

“If my superpower is restricted by him, and he can use all kinds of superpower equipment to launch attacks on me, how can I counterattack?”

Liang Yuan frowned tightly, suddenly thinking of a problem.

Although a Sealing Rune can seal the flow of superpowers, it can’t seal gene recombination.

When a superpower user’s genes recombine, they immediately transform into a giant beast.

Although they can’t mobilize superpowers, their destructive power in beast form is still astounding.

So, can this James’s ‘Silence’ ability restrain gene recombination?

Liang Yuan immediately asked Wang Tian’an, “Can James’s Silent ability restrain a superpower user’s gene recombination?”

Wang Tian’an nodded, “Yes, once targeted by his ability, if the superpower user doesn’t promptly manifest their genetic form, they will completely lose the chance to transform, having to face him in human form.”

“But now there are rumors that even after gene recombination, once targeted by James’ superpower, it might be impossible to maintain the genetic recombination form, directly degenerating into a normal human form.”

“Of course, this is just a rumor, because ever since James and Mengya Company’s leader Jin Shirong clashed months ago, he hasn’t made a move.”

“So whether he can ‘silence’ a genetic form superpower user, no one knows.”

“Jin Shirong?” Liang Yuan immediately grabbed onto the critical information.

He became interested and asked, “Is this Jin Shirong the boss of the Mengya Company? He can fight James?”

Wang Tian’an nodded slightly and said, “That’s right, Jin Shirong is the owner of Mengya Company, and the entire company revolves around him.”

“Jin Shirong is a notorious lecher in Yu Province; he built a palace on his Floating Island, filled with women he snatched through various means.”

“Currently, the only one who can contend with James is him.”

Liang Yuan became more interested and asked, “How does he contend with James? Isn’t James’ ability said to be invincible?”

Wang Tian’an laughed, “Mr. Liang, there’s no invincible superpower under the heavens, there’s always a way to counter another superpower.”

“Jin Shirong, as the head of Mengya Company, has an extremely rare ability, somewhat similar to yours.”

Liang Yuan was surprised, “My ability?”

Wang Tian’an said, “Your superpower is of the duplication type, right? Otherwise, I really can’t understand how you can grasp so many superpowers at the same time.”

Liang Yuan couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow, “Are you saying that Jin Shirong’s superpower is the duplication superpower?”

Wang Tian’an nodded, “Yes, Mengya Company is so strong entirely because of him.”

“Jin Shirong is extremely lascivious, having defiled many respectable women, yet he remains at large and even established Mengya Company single-handedly, all thanks to his formidable superpower.”

“If there’s truly an invincible power in this world, I think perhaps Jin Shirong’s ability could be considered invincible.”

“Jin Shirong’s superpower is to copy others’ abilities, and once he replicates someone else’s ability, he temporarily possesses their ability and talent, even gene recombination talents can be copied.”

“Not only that, he can replicate multiple talents in a short time, meaning he can control multiple talents as one person.”

Liang Yuan’s face couldn’t help but change slightly.

This ability is simply monstrous.

One must know that even he, to gain another ability, must first condense the genetic species of that ability, and only then use the Hundred-Change Demon Ape talent to morph the corresponding talent ability.

But for this Jin Shirong, he doesn’t even need to condense the genetic species, he can directly replicate someone’s ability.

And he can replicate the abilities of multiple opponents at the same time.

If they were to really fight, Jin Shirong could simply be an invincible existence.

The superpowers you have, he has.

The superpowers you don’t have, he still has.

If his gene recombination progress is even higher than yours, then there’s practically no chance of winning.

“So when he and James fought, who won?” Liang Yuan couldn’t help but ask.

Think about it, one is a silent superpower user, the other a duplication superpower user.

With such special top-level superpower users dueling, who finally came out on top?

Liang Yuan couldn’t guess the answer.

Wang Tian’an also shook his head, “I don’t know, back then in Yu Province, both Carey Technology Company and Mengya Company were developing rapidly, their territories quickly bordered each other, and serious conflicts broke out.”

“Then the two leaders engaged personally, intending to end the other.”

“They fought and fell into the water, and it wasn’t until much later that our chairman came back.”

“He was covered in injuries, and many of his pieces of equipment were trashed.”

“Since then, the two forces haven’t clashed again, orders were given from above to restrain both sides at Ming Fox Island, preventing any crossing of boundaries.”

“Recently, as both factions expanded outward, occupying Floating Islands, conflicts and clashes arose once again.”

“But both sides have remained restrained, avoiding major actions.”

“That’s why we didn’t seek trouble with Flying Manta Island after occupying Hell Island and Divine Tree Island.”

“Otherwise, with Flying Manta Island so close, Carey Technology Company would never tolerate their presence.”

Liang Yuan suddenly realized that these two forces had already had previous confrontations.

Even the leaders had exchanged blows personally.

Liang Yuan speculated, “I fear that their duel was evenly matched, neither having absolute certainty of victory, hence both sides stopped and minded their own affairs.”

“Possibly.” Wang Tian’an nodded, “At the time, many of us speculated the same.”

During their conversation, Zheng Yuan had been watching coldly, a sneer on his face.

Clearly, he didn’t take Liang Yuan and his group seriously.

A mere Yangshan, daring to oppose the company, is simply courting death.

He thought so inwardly, and when he looked at Wang Tian’an, there was a hint of mockery.

“This fool, surrendering now, when headquarters sends people, the Yangshan people will crumble instantly, and I’ll see how you manage then!”
