Lord of End of World Chapter 71

Gong Lixin had already listened to Song Haoran's detailed introduction to the characteristics of the various abilities. He felt that among the different abilities, the power ability was closest to internal force and was very similar in nature to it.

Seeing that w.a.n.g Tao was ashamed and embarra.s.sed when he mentioned his ability, he furrowed his brows and said in a serious tone, "You don't need to be ashamed. Those who have power abilities are no worse than those with other abilities. Abilities are abilities. All have their strengths and weaknesses. The point is how people use it. If you apply your power ability to the extreme, you will be one of the top powerhouses!"

w.a.n.g Tao was red-faced and became even more shy as he shouted, "But, the point is that I don't know what to do or how to use it."

At present, everyone's use of abilities were still in the exploration stage. If one's mind was wise and their wisdom great, they would progress further than other people, just like Zhao Ying and Li Jie. Unfortunately, w.a.n.g Tao and Sung Tiantian had coffins for brains.

"It's very simple to use." Gong Lixin slowly explained. "The power is in your body and it's you who has control over it. If you condense it and cover your eyes with it, you can see for thousands of miles. Use it to cover your ears and you can enhance your hearing for that far. Cover your mouth with it and even a lion's roar can shake the sky. When you cover your hands with it, you'll be able to push mountains and rivers. Cover your feet, and you can jump high and walk a thousand smiles in a day."

He spoke seriously, letting people around him feel stunned and yearn for such abilities. Lin Wenbo, who was standing not too far away, was also attracted by the teenager's serious expression and slowly came over.

w.a.n.g Tao was fascinated by the power Gong Lixin described. After s.p.a.cing out for a while, he came back to reality and said, "It sounds very powerful, but I don't know how to control my ability. Also, I can only fight in close quarters and a long-range attack can easily kill me. If a zombie scratches with their nails, I will die. They say that a person with power ability is the cannon fodder that paves the way for others on the battlefield and the one to die the fastest."

"Nonsense." Gong Lixin snorted and decided to speak his mind again. "If you improve the use of your ability and learn to move around quickly, you can easily avoid other people's long-range attacks. As for close combat, who would be your opponent? Zombie claws are not powerful enough to scratch copper skin and iron bones. If you use your power ability to shroud your whole body, then you can have an invincible body, and no one will be able to hurt you."

The surrounding people suddenly sighed, obviously not trusting Gong Lixin's description.

Lin Wenbo stood in the crowd and decided to trust the teenager because he was serious and looked especially confident. His heart was full of joy just watching him. He listened to the words of the youngster and found the young man's speech was accompanied by a melodious and intoxicating rhythm he couldn't identify. It made his middle tremble and, out of habit, he squinted his eyes as he hid the ulterior motive in those orbs.

Gong Lixin didn't care about the reactions of the people around him. He glanced at w.a.n.g Tao, who was staring at him looking dumbfounded. The other person still didn't understand him so he had no choice but to show him. "I will show it to you again. If you still don't understand then I will teach you later."

After he spoke, he bent down and lifted a dumbbell. The dumbbells were used to train the strength of power ability users. The one held in his hand was as thick as a foot and weighed 25 kilograms, but Gong Lixin held it without any effort at all, as if it was as light as a feather.

Everyone stopped training, their interest drawn towards Young Master Gong's movements. Song Haoran was also attracted by the movement on that side, after being told by his comrades.

Gong Lixin stared at w.a.n.g Tao as he explained, "I'm now channeling my strength to my palms. Watch carefully." He said before he folded the thick dumbbell cast from steel as if it were paper. He finally twisted it into a ball and held it in the palm of his hand.

The dumbbell made squeaking sounds as it was helplessly deformed in his hands. The people around him could only look straight in awe, their jaws comically hanging open almost to the point of dislocating. Right then, no one dared to doubt Young Master Gong's words from before.

However, this was not the end of the performance. Seeing as no one was pa.s.sing by outside of the training ground, Gong Lixin crushed the steel ball and raised his hand, throwing it against the wall at the edge of the training ground. The wall made a loud noise and dust flew everywhere. When the dust dissipated, they all saw that the wall was in pieces, with a large gaping hole five or six meters in diameter. The wind rushed through the hole and everyone's thoughts could not be immediately explained.

Deadly silence spread across the crowd. With this kind of power, was Young Master Gong still really a human? Was he not a humanoid weapon? Everyone gulped.

Right then, w.a.n.g Tao snapped out of his daze. He closed his mouth and looked at Gong Lixin with incredulity. He stuttered as he asked, "B-boss, you–! Are you also a power ability user? Then, doesn't that mean you're a four ability user?"

"I'm not saying anything." Gong Lixin refused to answer his question. He took out a dagger from his waist and opened his mouth again. "Look closely, the power ability user's strong body." After saying those words, he stabbed the dagger into his left palm. They only heard the sound of the dagger hitting a steel plate before it was broken into two pieces, his delicate palm remaining unscathed, not having a single scratch.

Stunned silence took over the training ground. After a while, noise abruptly exploded as everyone voiced out their amazement. Their wors.h.i.+p of Gong Lixin reached an unprecedented new height. After today, they had already determined that Young Master Gong was definitely a four-ability user who was the rarest existence in the world. Zhao Ying and Li Jie had just recovered their mental and physical strength so when they came back, they just happened to see this scene. The two men still had cold sweat running down their backs and so quickly escaped into a corner for fear of being seen by Young Master Gong.

Song Haoran's comrades also had a stunned expression on their faces. They whispered, "Major General, can I change teams? I want to be in Young Master Gong's group!" Right after saying this, the other eight people in the same group echoed his opinion.

Song Haoran laughed and said with pride, "I also want to change teams, but Lixin won't look at you. He has already chosen his members." It was difficult to conceal the deep affection in his voice just then.

The people lamented and made up their minds to change to Young Master Gong's group in the future.

In the crowd, Lin Wenbo was laughing softly, his expression very pleasing. Such a dynamic little brother-in-law, he really liked it. He liked it more and more every day. At the same time, he didn't forget to help Xiaoxin out and thus, immediately sent a short message to inform Grandfather Lin, letting him send someone to repair the wall. Fortunately, it was not an external wall or else they wouldn't be so relaxed about it right now. However, what he didn't expect was that when the person sent by Grandfather Lin arrived, Young Master Gong's fans wouldn't let them repair it, saying that it needed to be left as a commemoration. After several arguments, the military had to compromise.

w.a.n.g Tao's inferiority changed into joy and pride at seeing Young Master Gong's personal demonstration. He was full of expectations for the future, and everyone at the scene could not help but want to exchange their abilities with his. From then on, no one dared to despise w.a.n.g Tao nor dare say anything about power ability users being a second-cla.s.s, useless ability. Young Master Gong was also a power ability user. If he was a second-cla.s.s useless ability user, then others didn't have the right to live.

"Brother Gong's so powerful!" Xiao Sun Jie clapped his hands and took this opportunity to ask, "Brother Gong, can you teach me and my sister how to use our abilities?"

Gong Lixin touched Sun Jie's head and smiled, "Of course."

Hearing those words, the excited crowd immediately quieted down and consciously p.r.i.c.ked up their ears to listen to Young Master Gong. Young Master Gong was not only rumored to be strong, but also explained things well, and his understanding of abilities was particularly profound. It was much more useful than the cla.s.ses Gong Xiangyi gave in the first half of the year.

Gong Lixin looked over to Sun Tiantian and sincerely said, "I don't have earth abilities, so I can't teach you anything. I can only tell you what I understand. The specific method of application needs to be thought up by you."

Sun Tiantian nodded quickly, excitement flus.h.i.+ng her cheeks. [1] If Young Master Gong could provide even two sentences, it was more than enough for her, and she would definitely work hard to prove her worth.

Gong Lixin was pleased with her att.i.tude and explained, "The ground is the earth. The power contained within the earth is vast. Swamps and quicksand can swallow people, earthquakes and magma can make houses fall. If an earth ability user was at its peak, not to mention landslide, but changing the structure of the whole land would not be an impossible feat."

Just after explaining this, some people around them squeaked out in excitement. It's estimated that there were several earth ability users amongst the crowd. As for Sun Tiantian, this new knowledge shocked her to the core. She never knew that earth ability users were such powerful existence. Young Master Gong's words seemed to open up a door for her, and she saw a whole new world [2] beyond that door. As for what Young Master Gong said, if every type of ability user reached the peak of their abilities, they would be extremely powerful.

Gong Lixin continued without a pause. "The power of the earth is hidden under your feet. Therefore, when earth ability users release their abilities, don't always think about using your hands. Try to direct your strength to your feet and release your ability from there. This way of attacking is faster. Not only is it more effective, but it's also very secretive and hard to detect."

"Yes, that's right!" In the crowd, an earth ability user screamed with fisted hands raised into the sky.

"Thank you, Young Master Gong. I already have an idea!" Sun Tiantian pursed her lips as she scratched her head. A thoughtful look crossed her face. She endured hard training for more than half a month, yet it was only after listening to Young Master Gong saying a few words did she come up with something useful.

"Brother Gong, what about me? If I practice ice ability and reached its maximum potential, what would it look like?" Xiao Sun Jie asked, expectant.

Gong Lixin smiled and leaned over. "Ice ability users have the strength of the strongest ice. It can be broken into dust powder and when released, it can decrease the temperature to almost sub-zero levels."

After saying so, he raised his hand and a twenty-five-kilogram dumbbell flew into his palm. This sight once again frightened everyone.

"T-the dumbbell just flew into his hand! How did he do it?" Someone stuttered and asked.

"Young Master Gong has wind ability. He must have used his power to move it. Just what kind of brain structure does he have? We can spend all our time studying, and we still wouldn't make an inch of progress, yet Young Master Gong was able to master the wind ability to perfection. He is out of this world!" The person beside him exclaimed.

"Quiet! Look instead at how Young Master Gong uses his ice abilities!" The two people around him glared at both of them, successfully silencing them.

Gong Lixin held the dumbbell in his palm and white mist slowly condensed over its surface, creating a layer of frost and snow. The temperature that was low enough to freeze one's bones spread around and forced people around him to retreat. Only Sun Jie remained near Gong Lixin because only he and his ice ability could withstand the low temperature for a while.

The temperature continued to decrease and a small creaking sound emitted from within the dumbbell. Gong Lixin's five fingers slightly curled together, and the steel-casted dumbbell shattered into countless small pieces and fell to the ground.

Even steel can be frozen into ice when the temperature is lower than absolute zero. Everyone used their eyes to wors.h.i.+p the teenager with an expressionless face. Their faces were filled with amazement and excitement, but they didn't know how to express it.

Gong Lixin touched Xiao Sun Jie's head who kept cooing in awe. He straightened up and looked at Gu Nan and Ma Jun. "I'll teach here today. If you two have questions, ask me tomorrow. Starting tomorrow, I will give you special training. Come to my room at 7:00 every morning to learn how to control your abilities. For two hours after lunch break, you will practice in the training ground. If I am satisfied, I will take you out on a mission."

"Yes!" The five people yelled. Their cheeks were red and they felt extremely touched.

The people around the red-eyed five people couldn't say anything. With Young Master Gong's coaching, becoming one of the powerhouses was but a matter of time. At this point, no one doubted Young Master Gong's choice anymore unlike before. With Young Master Gong's absolute understanding of abilities, he really didn't need to care about the strength of his teammates, because he had enough ability to turn wastes into miracles workers.

After seeing that Young Master's team still lacked four people, the crowd boiled up. They rushed to Young Master Gong's side to recommend themselves. Seeing the situation getting out of control, Gong Lixin twisted his brows and released a hint of his internal force. The internal forced turned into chills, and the people who had rushed over were forced to retreat a few feet.

The crowd of excited people calmed down and racked their brains as they thought instead about how to best make an impression on Young Master Gong's heart.
