Super Gene Hunting Ground

Chapter 314: Chapter 314 Run, Brothers (Additional Chapter for Alliance Hierarch, 5 Chapters in Total)

Everyone hurriedly took off the necklaces from mid-air and put them on, then ran out of the hall, entering the nearby fire escape.

Everyone was bewildered as soon as they started running.

Damn, why is it so uncomfortable? Where’s my Agility? My Strength? I just can’t perform.

It’s as if everyone has become an ordinary person, what’s going on?

Yang Xiao thought about the necklace around his neck; he remembered when he placed the Flame Horse and the Giant Eagle in that Monster Plaza, the old man guarding the monsters gave him two necklaces, to be worn by the Flame Horse and the Giant Eagle respectively, and they instantly became docile.

It seems that the necklace could suppress the Genetic Attributes within the human body, making everyone temporarily unable to utilize the Genetic Data System’s functions, turning into ordinary people.

No wonder Master Long remained indifferent when everyone ridiculed that running was pointless; he had anticipated the current situation long ago.

Thus, the 138 City Kings struggled to run through the stairwells of the Financial Square building. It was fine at the start, but after climbing over twenty floors, people started to slowly complain about tiredness, panting and sweating profusely.

At the same time, everyone began to feel a peculiar sensation, a current slowly forming inside the body, not too intense, just trickling, never stopping.

This must be the effect of the Genetic Transformation Potion.

Aside from Gu Beifeng and Du Tianxing, there wasn’t much difference in speed among the rest.

Although everyone’s Genetic Data System was suppressed by the golden necklaces, they were still much stronger than ordinary people after all, having undergone Genetic Evolution.

Gu Beifeng and Du Tianxing were leading in the front, about two floors ahead of everyone else.

The rest just hoped to complete the task at hand, not exerting themselves too much in running, besides, even sprinting wouldn’t solve it in a minute.

Reaching the fortieth floor, the gap began to widen slowly, everyone felt their physical endurance reaching a limit, gasping for air, and slowing down.

At that moment, Master Long suddenly appeared beside everyone, and announced loudly:

”The first three to reach the rooftop of the 88th floor will be rewarded with a large bottle of Genetic Potion.”

Everyone was startled, damn, here comes another challenge.

Ouyang Cheng asked:

”Master Long, how big is a large bottle?”

”Fist-sized.”

Holy shit!

Everyone exclaimed in surprise, reinvigorated and bravely pushing forward.

Usually, a bottle of Genetic Potion was just a little bit, but what Master Long referred to as a large bottle was equivalent to more than a hundred portions, and besides, everyone knew that the Genetic Potions given by Master Long were no ordinary potions.

Indeed, Master Long added:

”The potency is ten times that of the ordinary ones.”

Ten times?

There was another chorus of surprised shouts, that’s equivalent to a thousand regular Genetic Potions, and normally it would take twelve thousand Crystal Coins to buy a thousand of the ordinary ones. Although money was no issue for them, this reward carried the weight of honor.

Run!

Everyone gave their all, although they couldn’t surpass Gu Beifeng and Du Tianxing in the lead, they could still fight for the third spot.

Yang Xiao was among the last three, as his Evolution Level was third-last among all.

The other two, one named Wu Hua and the other Feng Tang.

The two said:

”Yang Xiao, let’s not even dream about it, let’s just run at a slower pace.”

”That’s right, even if we ran to death, we wouldn’t make it to third, better to take it easy.”

None of them wanted to be the very last alone; coming in at the bottom together would share the disgrace.

Yang Xiao thought the same; his body had reached its limit.

However, after passing the fortieth floor, Yang Xiao suddenly noticed some subtle changes in his body.

Inside his body, besides the current from the Genetic Transformation Potion, he began to feel another warm flow, albeit irregular, intermittent.

Whenever this warm flow rose, his body felt much lighter.

What’s happening?

Yang Xiao thought it over and decided to grit his teeth and keep going, to see how this warm flow in his body operated.

Gradually, Yang Xiao’s pace sped up, increasing the distance between himself and Wu Hua, Feng Tang.

The two were startled and joked:

”Yang Xiao, what do you mean, are you still trying to vie for the top three?”

”Bro, not cool, isn’t it nice for the three of us to hang back together?”

Yang Xiao couldn’t be bothered with them because he noticed that as long as he kept running and lengthened his stride, the warm stream inside him appeared more frequently and more vigorously.

Yang Xiao gritted his teeth; he felt his body was achieving some kind of breakthrough, although he didn’t yet know what changes were happening.

Gradually, Yang Xiao overtook one person, then another.

...

Of course, no one paid attention to Yang Xiao because among the 138 people, the status of Gu Beifeng and Du Tianxing couldn’t be shaken, and the third place was expected to emerge from among those ten or so people with High-Level Enhanced Genes.

As for the rest of the hundred-plus people, whether fast or slow, the final result wouldn’t differ much, merely a difference between fifty steps and a hundred.

Yang Xiao felt the warm stream inside his body slowly becoming continuous, starting to provide energy incessantly. Although this energy wasn’t very powerful, it was enough to keep him running, and he was getting faster and faster.

By the time he reached the 60th floor, Yang Xiao had passed at least 80 people.

When Yang Xiao ran past Ouyang Cheng, Ouyang Cheng was startled and said:

”Yang, Yang Xiao, not, not bad at all!”

Everyone was too tired and panting to speak fluently.

Yang Xiao had no time to talk to him; speaking would disrupt the warm stream inside him, so he ran past Ouyang Cheng without uttering a word.

”Holy shit, you, you kid, damn, damn impressive!”

Ouyang Cheng shouted. He wasn’t careful enough lifting his foot and nearly stumbled to the ground, so he yelled to Yang Xiao who had run ahead:

”You, you kid, can, can you reach, third place? Look at you being so full of yourself.”

Yang Xiao turned a deaf ear and continued racing forward, gritting his teeth.

At this point, he hadn’t thought about which place he was aiming for; as he ran, he felt the operation of the warm stream inside his body. The warm stream began providing energy steadily and continuously, and he increasingly enjoyed this sensation. It seemed as if his body had crossed a certain limit, reaching a new height.

Run, keep on going!

This was the only thought in Yang Xiao’s mind; he wasn’t considering aiming for third place at all.

So, Yang Xiao started running past person after person who were all panting heavily.

”Who’s this guy? How can he be so awesome?”

”Holy shit, there’s a master among us!”

”Go bro, I believe in you, fourth place is definitely yours.”

”Hey, Yang Xiao, did you take some kind of powerful pill?”

Chi Lin shouted.

Yang Xiao continued without speaking; he was completely immersed in the joy of the physical breakthrough.

The Financial Building had a total of 88 floors, and Yang Xiao had already run to the 78th. There were only ten people ahead of him.

These ten people included Gu Beifeng and Du Tianxing. Of course, Gu Beifeng and the other one were leading the eight people behind them by at least two floors.

Thump thump thump...

The rhythm of Yang Xiao’s footsteps was clearly faster than those of the eight people in front of him.

These eight were those in the High-Level Enhanced Gene Realm. Although their Genetic Attribute System was suppressed by the gold necklace, their basic abilities were still expected to be ahead of everyone else.

The eight people heard the rapid footsteps coming from behind and all looked back.

Yang Xiao; they were not familiar with him, having only seen him in the restaurant a few times.

”Hey, bro, who are you?”

Yang Xiao didn’t answer, responding would interrupt the warm flow inside him, he kept on running determinedly forward, passing the eighth place among those eight.

The person in front was getting a bit flustered.
