The Great Flood of the End of Time: Female Neighbor Comes to Borrow Food

Chapter 724 Extracting Word Power Skills

Liang Yuan didn't dare to delay this matter for too long.

The threat posed by the ancient superhumans is too great. Once they completely merge all their spiritual fragments, their strength will be restored to its peak.

That would allow us to directly break through to 100% gene recombination.

By then, even I will be left with no choice but to passively take the beating.

Therefore, before one can achieve 100% genetic recombination, these enemies must be nipped in the bud.

"I originally thought that with my gene recombination progress now at 30%, I would be invincible in the cities near Linjiang. But now it seems that I still can't be too careless."

Liang Yuan's sense of crisis rose again. Ling Yu Rong was able to absorb spiritual fragments and go from recovery to becoming a gene recombination expert with 40% genetic power in just one month.

How could Liang Yuan not be worried?

He now even suspects that the nascent company might be the work of ancient superhumans.

Otherwise, the opponent's evolution speed would be too fast, and their use of various rune technologies would be so smooth. The strength of their rune technology far surpasses that of Yangshan.

Back in Yangshan, Liang Yuan went home and had dinner with Yang Mei and others, and then played with little Liang Hong for a while.

Looking at his son, who was only a few days old but already round and chubby, Liang Yuan couldn't help but feel overjoyed.

"Dudu, look who's here!"

Yang Mei held little Liang Hong in her arms and waved his chubby little hands at Liang Yuan, her face full of maternal love and doting affection.

Liang Yuan smiled and went forward to hug him.

Unexpectedly, the little guy burst into tears, showing him no respect whatsoever.

Not only did it cry loudly, but it also moved its hands and feet around, trying to break free from Liang Yuan's hands.

Seeing this, Liang Yuan was both amused and exasperated: "Why are you crying when everything was fine?"

Yang Mei quickly picked up her son and said, "You don't spend enough time at home, so Dudu is just shy around strangers."

Liang Yuan had no choice; as the leader of Yangshan, he was naturally extremely busy.

Even Yang Mei herself only has time to take care of her child and breastfeed at night to build a close parent-child relationship.

During the day, Lin Ya usually spends more time with the children.

However, the child was very easy to take care of for the first month; he basically just ate and slept, and slept and ate.

Liang Yuan thought for a moment and said, "I'll try to work from home as much as possible from now on, so the child can see me every day and won't be shy around strangers."

Yang Mei was overjoyed and said, "Then I'll work from home too."

Liang Yuan laughed and said, "Didn't I tell you to hand over the administrative work to He Zi and Yu Ke?"

Yang Mei said helplessly, "They are both young girls, and they are clumsy in their work. How can I trust them?"

"Besides, they are both too young and often can't control the people below them, so I have to keep an eye on them."

Upon hearing this, Liang Yuan stroked his chin and said, "It seems we need to train several more administrative teams as soon as possible, otherwise we won't have enough."

Now his territory has grown quite large, with several floating islands alone, plus places like Yangshan, each of which needs its own administrative system.

This matter needs to be addressed as soon as possible.

A good administrative system is one that can function independently even without a leader, ensuring the normal operation of a community.

Yangshan's current administrative system is clearly not capable of doing this yet.

Any place that lacks top-tier military force will be threatened by the outside world.

Yang Mei really has no ambition for her career anymore; she's devoted herself entirely to her children.

However, as Liang Yuan's capable wife, she couldn't just leave everything to its own devices.

Especially in shopping malls, with large quantities of goods coming in and out, it's really worrying not to have someone of my own watching over things.

"Sister Mei, don't exhaust yourself like this. Learn to focus on the important things and let others handle them. You just need to keep an eye on the big picture."

Liang Yuan smiled.

Yang Mei said helplessly, "I'm just not at ease. The shopping center handles a huge volume of goods every day. How can I not keep an eye on it?"

Liang Yuan smiled helplessly.

Yang Mei then said, "Forget it, let's not talk about these unhappy things. Do you think Dudu will awaken superpowers when she gets a little older?"

Yang Mei said with some worry, "In this world, it's hard to find a place to stand without awakening a special ability. I wonder what kind of special ability Dudu can awaken."

Liang Yuan was both amused and exasperated: "He's still young, how can he awaken his superpowers so early?"

Yang Mei asked, "I've heard that newborns are awakening their special abilities quite early these days. Is that true?"

Liang Yuan nodded: "The investigation department has conducted a population survey, and the awakening of superpowers is indeed becoming increasingly younger."

"But we haven't done any statistics on newborns yet, they're all too young."

"There have been no cases of newborns awakening supernatural abilities so far."

"It's only been a little over two years since the end of the flood, it's not that fast."

"Besides, whether he can awaken his superpowers or not, as my child, he can live a good life."

Yang Mei smiled, nestled in his arms, filled with happiness.

This is what it feels like to have found a reliable person.

After a joyful time with his family, Liang Yuan returned to his room to prepare for the lucky draw.

"System, find me the [Word of Power] skill."

The system immediately began scrolling and searching at lightning speed.

Before long, a skill appeared.

[Word Power]: Causal Skill

Skill Quality: Gold
Skill Requirements: 100 Spirit, 100 Constitution

Skill effect: Words become law; every word you speak will trigger cause and effect and become reality.

Note: The power of words is affected by mental strength. If the target's mental strength exceeds yours, the cause and effect of your words will not affect them.

Note 2: Failure of the Word of Power will result in karmic repercussions; please proceed with caution. "Hmm? Gold quality? Skill requirement as high as 100 points?"

Liang Yuan was greatly surprised when he saw this skill.

The skills he has encountered so far range from white to green, then purple, and finally gold.

The last time I reached the gold quality skill level was with the Soul Restraint Talisman.

Now, this [Word of Power] has actually reached the gold quality.

Moreover, the skill requirement is a whopping 100 points of mental strength!
Liang Yuan couldn't help but feel strange. Could it be that Gu Jianye needed 100 points to awaken this ability?
He thought it was unlikely; Gu Jianye must have awakened this ability a long time ago.

Liang Yuan stroked his chin, guessing that if this ability appeared in a superhuman, it would probably be a slowly growing ability.

Initially, the other party could only influence cause and effect on a small scale, not to the extent they have now.

Through the system, I directly exchanged for the already quite powerful [Word of Power] skill.

"I will be able to sense all the ancient superhumans in my territory immediately!"

Liang Yuan uttered his first phrase, "Words of Power".

The next moment, three lines of cause and effect appeared in his mind.

Liang Yuan only needed to sense it slightly before he immediately sensed that the ends of the three causal threads were connected to Ling Yurong, Di Quanke, and Jin Peng!
Just as he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, he suddenly sensed that another causal line was connecting him from the southwest!
Liang Yuan's heart skipped a beat!
"To the southwest, there is a spiritual fragment of an ancient superhuman!"

Liang Yuan's heart stirred slightly; the southwest direction was right in the Guangfu District.

Their sphere of influence had already encompassed the Loess Plateau and the Mi Yuan Rainforest.

Even Midui Mountain, Cangfu Mountain, and Denggong Mountain can be considered part of his sphere of influence.

Liang Yuan immediately understood that a fragment of the spirit of an ancient superhuman must have awakened over there.

The other party may not have been exposed yet and is still lying in wait.

"No, not necessarily. It could be with the military in Cangqiong Mountain?"

Liang Yuan suddenly thought of something.

Previously, Zhang Yujiang from the military wrote to him, inviting him to explore an ancient tomb, saying that they had discovered the well-preserved corpse of an ancient person on Abyss Island.

"Could it be that the military has found the remains of an ancient superhuman?"

Liang Yuan thought about it more and more and it seemed very possible!

"It seems it's time to go to the military again."

Liang Yuan's eyes flickered slightly. The last time he went to the military, he fought with Feng Jiangong, but was interrupted by the Golden Crow Beast that escaped from the Tianyuan Passage.

I wonder if Feng Jiangong's gene recombination progress has improved after so long.

"If Feng Jiangong's capabilities remain at around 20% of the genetic recombination progress, then it's time to change the way Yangshan cooperates with the military."

Liang Yuan thought to himself that any cooperation model must be based on the equal strength of both parties.

When Yangshan was weaker than others, the military had also considered targeting Yangshan.

Now that his own strength has improved, Yangshan has continued to cultivate a large number of superhumans with gene recombination capabilities.

If the military remains stagnant, Liang Yuan will naturally not let this opportunity pass.

The situations between the two are now different.

The military once posed a great threat to Yangshan thanks to the formidable fighting capabilities of Feng Jiangong and Zhang Yujiang.

Even though Yangshan had conquered the territories of the three major religions, it still had to cede mining rights and other privileges to the military.

To be honest, Liang Yuan was unwilling at the time.

But the situation is what it is. With those two military personnel present, if a real fight breaks out, Yang Shan will be at a great disadvantage as he is the only one at the genetic recombination level.

So Liang Yuan tolerated it at the time.

But things are different now; some things need to be discussed again.

How can someone else be sleeping soundly beside my bed?

After dinner, Liang Yuan went to the Meishan mining area and found Gu Jianye, who was serving in the military.

The Gu Jianye of this moment is completely different from the dashing and extraordinary man he was a month ago.

Gu Jianye is now thin and hunched over.

Liang Yuan looked at Gu Jianye and said calmly, "It seems your ability to use words doesn't help your physical transformation at all."

Gu Jianye looked up at Liang Yuan and asked, "So, what do you want me to do?"

Liang Yuan raised an eyebrow: "Hmm? How did you know I wanted to use you?"

"Ha, you might not find another person with my abilities in the entire Linjiang."

"Although I don't know how you cracked my [Word of Power] ability, I know very well that you can't bear to kill me."

“Pu Shanlie and Chang Yuntao, after they saw my special abilities, they both wanted me to work for them. Don’t you want to do the same?”

Gu Jianye looked up, his sharp gaze fixed on Liang Yuan.

Liang Yuan laughed: "You're very confident, aren't you?"

Gu Jianye said, "Although I am not a master of gene recombination, my abilities are more useful than most gene recombination masters, aren't they?"

"You're really wasting your talent by making me mine here."

Liang Yuan nodded slightly: "It is indeed a waste, but I do need you."

"However, I don't quite like your attitude."

Gu Jianye didn't say anything. He felt that if Liang Yuan wanted to use him, he definitely wouldn't kill him.

Liang Yuan stood up, stretched out his palm, his supernatural power surged within him, and his spiritual power gradually dissipated, condensing into a rune.

He slowly walked towards Gu Jianye and said, "Besides, your son has already died at the hands of my men. I find it hard to believe that you would truly work for me sincerely."

Gu Jianye's expression suddenly changed drastically: "You, what are you going to do!"
