Armed Train in the Apocalypse

Shu Wei retreated, and seeing no one around, Yu Yue secretly touched his face before leaving, leaving the space for him alone.

Su Huan looked out of the car window, a 12.7mm bullet was still lodged in the glass, and a hole was torn in the distant clouds, with the sudden burst of sunlight casting a golden patch of light on the devastated ground.

Su Huan raised his palm, the fingertips glistening like jade, though in reality, this hand could easily crush jade.

Expressionless, he watched the shattered light between his fingers, slowly clenching them.

The light seemed to twist, converging into a pure pan-energy orb in his palm.

This was the new ability of his primary profession: ”Energy Reversal.”

Previously, he could only convert the pan-energy within him into various types of energy, but once converted, this part of the energy had to be used, as the process was irreversible.

Now, with this ability, for example, if he unleashed a violent explosion, he could subsequently reverse the energy from the explosion back into the purest form of pan-energy and absorb it again.

This was also a necessary skill for advancing to Tier Four ”Energy-Devouring Engine.”

From now on, unless Su Huan was placed in a void devoid of any energy, his energy would be endless.

Just like if he was dueling with Lin Jin, and his energy ran out, he could directly extract Lin Jin’s flames. The flames didn’t extinguish when meeting water, mainly because of the pan-energy supporting it, so he could extract this portion of pan-energy, since he mastered the [Energy] rule, being the king of all energies.

If that wasn’t enough, he could directly grab Lin Jin and absorb fiercely, as Evolvers naturally have a lot of pan-energy within them.

However, this method was inefficient, spending ages to gather energy was less efficient than cycling once and directly extracting unowned pan-energy from the air.

If a scenario had to be found to counter him, it would be Shu Wei who advanced to Tier Four.

The latter’s ability was named ”Vacuum Touch,” and according to Director Xu’s speculation, it involved creating a vacuum.

But Shu Wei was still Tier One, not because she wasn’t trying hard, but because the capability samples were too rare, with no direction for progression; recklessly evolving would only waste life force.

Moreover, with Su Huan’s advancing speed, when he advanced to Tier Five in the future, she might only be Tier Two at most.

In the face of absolute rank disparity, that minor countering ability would be meaningless too.

The second ability was also crafted, called ”Energy Tide.”

This ability may sound ordinary, as it can control the energy concentration within an area. As long as he desires, the surrounding pan-energy can become thick to the point of suffocation, or as dry as a desert.

The third energy heart within him was born to mobilize the tide.

But the gains this time went far beyond that. While dealing with the Tier Three white tiger in Korea, his secondary profession advanced to Tier Three, and the two professions began an initial fusion.

He no longer needed to rely on ”Gas Vortex” and ”Absolute Domain” to mobilize energy flow. Now, with just a thought, all his actions carried converted energy flow, not just limited to electrical current or common energies.

Meanwhile, his physical attributes skyrocketed to a terrifying height.

Now, Su Huan almost felt like a fusion of magic and martial arts cultivation, all skills subtly changed under the influence of both professions, most directly, being able to mold a nuclear bomb by hand without worrying about himself.

That was the reason for the spectacular scene carrying explosions and a sea of thunder seen earlier.

Logically, such a cool new profession should have a name, but the upgrade still had the two professions ascending separately, so Su Huan couldn’t be bothered. It’s just a name, it doesn’t affect strength.

Although still dual Tier Three, with the mastery of the [Energy] rule, the door to Tier Four was now entirely open for him.

In terms of pure combat power, he might be at the level of a weak Tier Four.

The addition of ”might” was because currently, nothing had evolved to Tier Four, not even zombies; the pinnacle of all races barely reached Tier Three, and nobody is likely to master the rule and break through to Tier Four within a year or two, making the current Su Huan invincible.

Invincible in every sense.

...

”January 22, 2037, gravitational equilibrium.”

”Donghuang won the Four Nations War, and Jiao Ting didn’t die, he was very disappointed.”

Cleaning up the battlefield and gathering the wounded didn’t take long, mostly it was the car repairs and waiting for the Donghuang Heavy Industry Heavy Armor Brigade to cross the river that took more time.

Along with it came that stone with the [Gravity] rule.

In the train, various laboratory heads and top scholars gathered around a large stone. Ever since Su Huan had disclosed the rule information to them, these scholars had developed a significant interest in the rule, considering it the cornerstone of the evolution era, akin to physical laws.

”Feeling the stone is one thing, why are you touching me?”

Professor Ma shook off Director Xu’s hand somewhat warily, taking a half-step back, knowing well that his friend was quite unscrupulous in the pursuit of research.

Maximum capability, yet flawed character.

Director Xu glanced at the stone, then at Professor Ma, expressing some regret, ”Aren’t you gravity-related? How come you don’t feel anything at all.”

Professor Ma replied helplessly, ”The rule is a necessity for advancing to Tier Four. I’m only Tier One now, nowhere near the stage of contacting the rule, so naturally this stone has no reaction for me. Instead of making plans for me, you might as well look for the train conductor or Lin Jin, they can both activate this stone.”

Director Xu shook his head, ”The train conductor can do it, but he became lazy to cooperate after activating it twice. Lin Jin couldn’t activate this stone at all, in other words, the Tier Two Lin Jin couldn’t fully activate it currently.”
