Chapter 280: Radiation Hot Spring and Strange Powers
Absolutely nothing was growing on the black land.
In the dilapidated buildings that were no better than ruins, traces of human beings could be seen after careful observation!
This area was adjacent to the Snake Monkeys’ settlent. It explained why the Snake Monkeys were aware of the human beings’ vitals.
It was obvious that the human settlent on this island had been destroyed by the Snake Monkeys.
But they didn’t expect their karma would get to them so quickly. Their settlent was destroyed by another human force that they couldn’t resist.
“Huh. Have you sensed anything?”
“I don’t feel comfortable at all after entering this settlent. It feels like an invisible power keeps corroding my body.”
Qin Yueyu, whose short hair had grown into a black ponytail, was slightly confused.
“It’s radiation. The substances in this entire area carry a lot of radiations!”
On the goggles that Guo Wei was wearing, the red “radiation alarm” was popping up nonstop.
“Seriously? Did the Snake Monkeys already have nuclear bombs?”
Mister Bug was quite shocked.
“How is it possible? If they had invented nuclear bombs, we couldn’t have taken them down so easily.”
Qin Yueyu rolled her eyes at him.
“Then what’s the reason?”
Mister Bug scratched his head.
“It’s because of the setting of this settlent!”
An Quan suddenly opened his mouth in excitent.
“If my guess is correct, this settlent must be set in Land of Radiation, a post-apocalyptic role-playing survival ga...”
Then, he quickly climbed to the top of the residue of the highest building and looked around.
“It’s indeed up ahead! Co with !”
After he saw sothing, An Quan suddenly jumped off the building and rushed on the desolate land while he shouted!
Very soon, the few core players of the Twin Dragon Island ca to the core of the destroyed settlent, which was a hot spring where hot steam was still popping up.
[Radiation Hot Spring]
[Level: Special]
[Rarity: Superior (Rare)]
[Description: This hot spring contains abundant radiation power and cos from a destroyed human settlent. One’s body will mutate to so degree and may receive extraordinary abilities after soaking in the hot spring for a long ti!]
“This resource of the human settlent wasn’t destroyed by the Snake Monkeys?”
Everybody was slightly surprised to see the stats of the hot spring except An Quan.
“There’s much more radiation in the water than on the ground!”
Ji Ye pulled his finger back from the hot spring. The white light of “Healing” flashed and restored the slight mutation of his finger caused by the radiation.
“This Radiation Hot Spring was the initial place in the ga. It’s set to be a place where players receive Extraordinary powers through the hot spring!”
An Quan looked at the steaming hot spring and spoke with great excitent.
“Extraordinary powers? What powers are we talking about?”
Mister Bug’s eyes glittered after hearing that.
“Well, in the beginning, only so fundantal powers are available, such as Iron Skin, Wings, Morphing, Stealth, Limb Regeneration... But after you level up, or if you do in-ga purchase, you may receive rare ‘Kinetic Bomb’, ‘Vision Blockage’, ‘Atomic Dismbernt’, ‘Bullet Speed’, ‘Gravity Manipulation’, and other unusual powers.”
What An Quan said made everybody change their expression.
The regular powers weren’t surprising, but the powers behind were clearly in the level of Transcendent. They were so sort of “super-abilities”!
“You can get super abilities by taking a spa? That’s an unreasonable setting... In a post-apocalyptic world after a nuclear explosion, clean water should be as precious as any money...”
Guo Wei shook his head and expressed his concern about the setting of the Radiant Hot Spring.
“Well, I was a new graduate back then and wasn’t too mature yet. The setting was indeed not perfect!” An Quan said with sweat on his face.
“The things in many ga-related settlents are indeed unreasonable. For example, a robot can be sucked blood from, a blind champion can be blinded, and the fiery champion can be ignited... Huh, wait a mont, did you design this ga?”
Mister Bug nodded in agreent.
Then he realized sothing and looked at An Quan in a stun.
“It’s a famous product that my company released to the overseas market. Technically speaking, I only took part in a small part. I happened to be the one who proposed the hot spring bath.
“When I logged off earlier, my colleagues told that a settlent set in that ga appeared on the Land of Inheritance. I didn’t expect to run into it. But it’s a sha that it’s been destroyed...” An Quan looked at the ruins all over the ground and remarked regretfully.
It was indeed a sha. After all, even though there were a million settlents on the Land of Inheritance at the beginning, human beings had created nurous works in the long passage of ti. A regular ga could probably be represented by only one settlent on the Land of Inheritance.
If they missed it, they might never be able to see relevant characters or objects.
“The first settlent we et during the “Strive for the Best” quest is related to a core player from our settlent? Is it a coincidence, or is it an unspoken rule in the current phase?”
Ji Ye, on the other hand, thought carefully at this mont.
“I’m afraid that the latter has higher odds.”
After all, when the new players entered the Land of Inheritance, they usually arrived at settlents where their relatives were at.
Then, it was not entirely impossible that the things they ran into in the new phase were in a way connected to the people or the background of their own settlent!
“The Radiation Hot Spring grants powers and allows soone to beco Extraordinary directly. This wasteland settlent is as valuable as the Dragon-Urine Wine and the Fire Oil!”
After that, Ji Ye refocused his attention on the Land of Radiation.
In terms of resources, this human settlent had even more than the tal n and the Mirage Monsters did.
That was because all the substances that carried the power of radiation were listed as Extraordinary resources on the Land of Inheritance.
Once the news ca out, a lot of new players would definitely co to the hot spring despite the hazardous radiations.
After all, rich guys could rely on their money, while poor guys could only count on mutations. Since there weren’t enough resources, the unusual powers were more attractive than martial arts and magic were. If they were lucky and awakened such powers, they would soar to fa.
But it wasn’t so attractive to Ji Ye.
Essentially speaking, those unusual powers were no different from other Extraordinary powers.
For example, he could control the water currents with the Flood Dragon Bloodline like the water powers. He could even strengthen his body and give himself the intimidation of dragon-blood creatures!
But after all, it was much easier to obtain powers by bathing in the hot spring than through bloodline.
The only problem was that the mutation caused by the radiation was as uncontrollable as the Black Serpent Blood, and the powers that it gave were uncertain!
More importantly, the mutation caused by the radiation could be very dangerous and might continually destroy one’s body.
Probably for the sa reason, this human settlent didn’t win the competition even though they had such an Extraordinary resource but was destroyed by the Snake Monkeys who were also inclined to technology.
“However, it couldn’t have been long since this human settlent was destroyed, so highly-concentrated radiation power still lingers in the hot spring. It hasn’t been transford into the power of providence by the Snake Monkeys yet.
“We can absorb the settlent cores of the Snake Monkeys and the lizards and then boost the Land of Radiation with the power of providence so that the radiation in this area will get stronger and more people with unusual powers can be raised!”
Furthermore, the power of providence had another usage.
The settlent of a species or civilization could transform the unowned areas with its own power of providence into an environnt that was suitable for its mbers’ survival!
That was also very important.
Otherwise, the creatures like the Mirage Monsters couldn’t earn much even though it won the war and occupied the entire Twin Dragon Island. However, it wouldn’t be a problem if they could transform the whole Twin Dragon Island into a sea with the power of providence of their settlent.
However, because the Snake Monkeys and the lizards were gravely short of the power of providence, they were never able to transform the environnt. At this mont, the Twin Dragon Island had enough resources to do that.
