Ace Of Terrans

114 Exceeding Limits.



Shi Lang came inside the physical assessment room and gazed at the different equipment placed around. He could sense the changes in his body better than the others, if he used words to describe it then he would say, “I feel like I am dynamite, ready to explode.”

The guy did not switch on the lights in the room but he was able to walk around perfectly, to him the dim illumination coming from the corridor was enough to provide him with a high-definition picture of the room.

He picked up the communicator and dialed for Dalia, and after the lady picked it up before she could ask anything, the youngster said, “Madam, my eyesight has improved, I can watch it all without needing to turn on the lights.”

Dalia asked, “Are you sure? Could it be that you are not using your ability to sense?”

Shi Lang replied in the affirmative. Dalia said, “I will come over now, do not move. I want to see your physical assessment personally.”

The young soldier could not say otherwise. He was experiencing a state of surprise himself. The vision enhancement almost made him capable of walking in the dark and killing the enemies without being noticed. He could not understand, how it worked.

Two minutes later, Dalia walked into the room and the first thing she did was switch on the lights. She said, “I can understand that you are able to see things better in the dark than others, however, it should not work in the complete absence of any radiance. Even pet cats can see things in the dark but that is because of the bigger cornea and pupils they have. Your eyes look normal.”

Shi Lang shrugged his shoulders, “I am not so knowledgable about gene science. But could it be possible that the medicine you procured for me is the reason for all these changes?”

Dalia crossed her arms and said, “We will know when the gene map from your blood cells is produced. For now, let us see what are the other changes.”

Her words were reasonable, how was she to say anything without results from the tests. Shi Lang nodded and he came to stand in front of a padded pillar. Dalia said, “Start with the lightest and then increase your strength slowly to the maximum. I will start the hyper cameras they will be able to record the changes in your muscle structure as well.”

Shi Lang nodded and waited for Dalia to give him a go signal. The lady tapped on her communicator and said, “Go.”

Bang!

The first right punch landed on the pillar, creating a loud bang noise. Dalia was not shocked, this sound was lower than what she had produced back when she was a five-star Terran. Shi Lang kept on attacking, he used all the blows in his quiver. Kicks, combinations, direct punches. The pillar was riddled with dents and holes. The reason was that Shi Lang’s power was exceeding the limits of the equipment.

Dalia did not bother to stop him, she was looking at a tablet held in her hands, her eyes revealed a look of surprise and she raised an eyebrow. The other thing was that Shi Lang was still not at the top of his strength.

After five minutes when the last blow landed, it left a fist-sized hole inside the pillar. The power rating displayed on the screen was something that Dalia had never predicted. It was directly showing the peak of five-star Terran. She raised her head and without a change in her expression, she said, “Your attack power is comparable to the peak of the five-star realm.”

Shi Lang asked, “The reason?”

“The density and dexterity of muscle fibers have changed qualitatively. They are more flexible than before and can deal with the shock impact better. The bones have become stronger as well. Nothing else. We do not know much about your kicks but let us leave that to you to discover later. Do you feel any changes when you enable your ability?” asked the lady. Although she only stated what the machine showed her, it was the truth.

Shi Lang enabled his ability and closed his eyes to check the surroundings with the help of his abilities only. After a minute he said, “I can sense your bpm without taking your pulse.”

Dalia nodded and said, “I expected the growth in your abilities but this is truly surprising. You are like a walking stethoscope.”

This remark made dark lines appear on Shi Lang’s forehead. He did not know what to say in reply. The two then went on to complete a few more tests and in the physical assessment, Shi Lang showed the results that matched with a peak five-star Terran. He asked, “Madam, is it possible to mass-produce this drug?”

Dalia shook her head and said, “Unfortunately, no. The crucial ingredient of this medicine is a plant called, Ambroden. However, this flower is very important to the natives and they have removed almost all the pods surrounding our basecamp. Not only that, but you are the only person who tasted this medicine and live to tell the tale.”

Shi Lang raised his eyebrow when he heard the last sentence, he asked, “What do you mean?”

Dalia said, “There were other versions of this medicine and a lot of volunteers, it took me ten years but I finally made the non-harmful drug. However, only you managed to survive.”

Shi Lang sighed and said, “You said, this was the first time you have made such a drug.”

“Yes, I did not lie but the formula was something my seniors researched upon. I only extended it. The reason why I cannot recreate this is that one of the ingredients came from the extinct planet, the one Federation blew to pieces. We tried to collect the debris in the space, and recreate the environmental setting in a contained atmosphere, but nothing worked. Federation is not yet strong enough and I doubt that it ever will be, to recreate the planets and things it destroyed.”

Her calm and slow-paced words shocked Shi Lang. He asked, “Madam, do we not have to report that the medicine is finished? If someone found out then, I think the secret divisions might be after us, with me as their clone breeder.”

Dalia chuckled and said, “Nothing like that is going to happen, your control is at the peak of five-star Terran level. You can fake your power levels and the tests they will conduct back at home, don’t worry, I will help you with that. No one will know if you don’t tell.”

Shi Lang took a step back in shock, this was purgery. He did not want to be deceitful to the colors he wore. At some point in time, the heart of a carefree cultivator has transitioned into a dutiful soldier. He did not wish to do something that might come back and haunt him.

Dalia noticed his expression and let out a chuckle. She said, “Good, you pass. I was only joking, there are others like you who have received this medicine, you will meet them in the future. Just that their growth potential was not equal to yours.”

Shi Lang clenched his fists for a second and then he let them go with a deep breath. Dalia said, “Cover up, your time to departure is near. The reports of your tests have been transmitted to your commanding officer. By the time you get home, they will have discerned the originality of the matter so do not worry.”

With that said, she walked outside the room. Shi Lang shook his head and went to take a shower in his room. Dalia came to the monitoring room and greeted Yuu, John, and Carlos. The three people were gazing at her with a complicated expressions. Dalia sighed and asked, “What is this about?”

Yuu asked, “Why give him that medicine now? Would it not be better to try after he reaches six-star level?”

Dalia took a seat and shook her head. She said, “Shi lang has only once ever consumed Gene-enhancement serum, his body and blood should not have been able to reach this level. The enhancement of his genes should have diluted and regressed in the absence of the gene-enhancement serums to support it or make it permanent.

Yet, he is able to come to the four-star level, then which means, his potential is higher than the rest of those, so I bet my chance now, as the result his body has gone qualitative change. His results are all in front of you. In the future, he will be better as a six-star Terran than the others by at least one whole level.”

John and Carlos exchanged glances and the latter said, “I hope this doll can catch up with his skills. He is loyal enough to say that he will not commit purgery. Dalia, arrange for him to move closer with that group. It is time he becomes part of a new world.”

The four people all had solemn expressions on their faces. Shi Lang did not know what a big change was going to take place with him at the helm of it.
