Super Gene Hunting Ground

(This update is for Alliance Hierarch book friend 1710**4184, thank you for your support!)

Yang Xiao got up, took a hot shower.

After changing into his Armor, Yang Xiao left his room and saw number 25 while passing the bar.

Sure enough, his guess was correct. Number 25 glanced at Yang Xiao, holding back a smile with a triumphant expression on her face.

Yang Xiao walked over and stared at number 25.

Number 25 bit her lip, trying hard to control her laughter, revealing a charm that made Yang Xiao's heart itch.

"Someday I will catch you and show you what I'm capable of."

Number 25's lips were bitten, her cheeks flushed with a hint of red, she glanced at Yang Xiao, covered her mouth with her hand and smiled, then walked to the elevator and pressed the button to go down.

The two Iron Tower Warriors at the elevator entrance were like statues, ignoring Yang Xiao.

After a moment, with a ding, the elevator arrived.

Just as Yang Xiao was about to enter the elevator, he heard someone shouting from behind:

"Wait a second, wait a second."

It turned out to be the City Kings of Crescent City and Tianguang City from yesterday, hurrying over.

The three entered the elevator and nodded to each other in greeting.

"Brother, my name is Chi Lin, the City King of Crescent City, and this is Dai Liang, the City King of Tianguang City. Meeting is fate, let's get to know each other, we are brothers from now on."

Yang Xiao smiled slightly:

"Yang Xiao, from Nanmu City."

During breakfast, the dining hall was no longer as restless as it was yesterday. It seems all these men got their release last night, and everyone appeared very satisfied; the experience must have been good.

Ouyang Cheng walked over with his tray and sat down opposite Yang Xiao.

"Brother, I heard you got together with the beauty number 25? You're lucky, man. I've seen number 25; her figure, looks, and temperament are top-notch among all these pretty ladies."

Yang Xiao laughed but didn't comment. He guessed Ouyang Cheng must have heard it from Chi Lin and Dai Liang, these two big mouths really can't keep things to themselves.

"Who were you with last night?"

"The same girl as the day before yesterday. I chatted with her yesterday, and she said she will serve me for this whole month and cannot be replaced midway, everyone is the same. Hey, actually, that girl has a really nice figure."

While eating, Ouyang Cheng had a nostalgic look on his face.

Yang Xiao suddenly felt a shock in his mind, stunned for a moment, and looked at Ouyang Cheng:

"Can you see the girl who serves you during the day? What number is her nameplate?"

"Of course, I remember, nameplate number 78. Seems like I haven't seen her during the day."

Yang Xiao suddenly lowered his voice and spoke softly:

"There were 138 of us who stayed in this building last night. If each person has one girl, that's 138 people, but the service staff we see during the day doesn't add up to more than thirty. Where are the other hundred plus women? Where did they go? And where do they come from?"

Upon hearing this, Ouyang Cheng also stunned for a moment, but then he laughed and said:

"Who cares where they come from? As long as they make me happy, that's all that matters."

Yang Xiao followed with a chuckle. It's not good to take such things too seriously; it would just spoil the mood.

At this moment, a gorgeous woman walked into the dining hall and loudly announced:

"Dear Kings, starting tomorrow, you will enter a closed training period. Today you can still enjoy your time around Magic City, but remember to return by ten o'clock tonight, or else your qualification will be revoked."

If anyone's qualification were to be revoked now, it would be a year's regret for sure.

So many exotic delicacies from alien planets, and the energy that can provide Genetic Evolution. Many people estimate that if they could eat here for thirty days, they could improve their Genetic Attribute by at least 2-3 points.

Apart from the three including Yang Xiao, the rest are Enhanced Gene Intermediate or above, and it's very difficult for them to increase 1 point of Genetic Attribute. To be able to enhance 2-3 points just by eating here for a month is already quite miraculous.

Yang Xiao's starting point is lower, estimating he could enhance 5-8 points of Genetic Attribute.

Moreover, they are accompanied by beauties every night and have training during the day, presumably, this training is also related to Genetic Evolution. How could they afford to have their qualifications revoked for such an important event?

People including the City King Du Tianxing of Magic City and City King Gu Beifeng of Wentian City expressed that they would just roam around casually today and must return for dinner, absolutely not allowing their training qualification to be revoked.

After breakfast, Yang Xiao left the building, planning to ride the Flame Horse to visit some other Genetic Store locations. Seeing children like Yang Kai and Yang Ying yesterday, he felt it was a kind of gain.

He had always thought that only youngsters between 18 to 22 years old like them could survive in the post-apocalyptic world, yet he didn't expect to still see children like Yang Kai.

Yang Xiao always had the feeling that there was some force behind the scenes controlling everything.

Yang Xiao visited three Genetic Store strongholds and did not find anything particularly special. They were as unremarkable as the two Genetic Stores he checked out yesterday, with bustling street stalls nearby selling not just equipment and weapons but also various daily necessities.

After all, besides Genetic Evolution, people still needed to eat and live.

The only thing Yang Xiao gained was a set of Go game pieces he saw at one of the street stalls.

It was a set of cloud-pattern Go game pieces, each piece smooth and lustrous as if made of jade.

Yang Xiao took a liking to them at first glance, guessing they were probably taken from a store.

When the apocalypse just began, everyone generally only cared about necessities like food and clothes, and no one bothered to take entertainment items.

Once everyone got used to life in the post-apocalyptic world, some started looking for entertainment, and began searching for various fun things, such as playing cards, Chinese chess, Go, soccer, and so on.

"How much for this Go set?"

"Top-quality cloud-pattern pieces, for 100 Crystal Coins."

"You're really asking for the moon here—100 Crystal Coins for a worn-out chess set? I might as well buy four bottles of Genetic Potion to drink."

Yang Xiao thought to himself, even if I have money, I can't just waste it like this, right?

"Brother, how much are you willing to pay then? To find a set like this now is tough, I can't sell it too cheaply."

The young vendor saw Yang Xiao with the Flame Horse, looking extraordinary, and knew he was wealthy, so he quoted a high price.

He had had the chess set out for several days with hardly anyone asking the price—those who did never offered more than 10 Crystal Coins, and he was reluctant to sell.

"I can give you at most 50 Crystal Coins. It's up to you if you want to sell."

Yang Xiao said, then turned around to leave.

"Hey, brother, don't go, okay, I'll sell it at a loss to you."

Yang Xiao just smiled. From where did you get the cost? Weren't they simply picked up from a store?

Having bought the chess set, Yang Xiao happily returned to the Financial Building, arriving just in time for lunch.

He did not want to miss out on the food here.

After lunch, Yang Xiao went straight to the 68th floor and approached the bar.

The woman at counter number 25 saw Yang Xiao and gave a slight smile.

Yang Xiao spoke up:

"Do you know how to play Go?"

"A little, but I don't have a Go set."

"I do."

Yang Xiao lifted the Go game box.

The woman at counter number 25's eyes lit up, then she sighed and said:

"Our way of playing is different from yours; it wouldn't work."

"How do you know it wouldn't work if you haven't tried?"

Without hesitation, Yang Xiao spread the Go game out on the bar and, with a thought, a black piece flew onto the board.

The woman at counter number 25 widened her eyes at Yang Xiao as if looking at a monster.

Then, suddenly speaking in a coquettish tone, she said:

"I want the black pieces. You play white, and I'll go first."

After that, with a thought, the black piece that Yang Xiao had placed just a moment ago flew to her and settled on the board.

By the rules of Go, whoever holds the black pieces goes first. Unexpectedly, even this small advantage was one that woman at counter number 25 wouldn't let go of.

"Your move!"

The woman at counter number 25 looked up at Yang Xiao.

Yang Xiao had no choice but to maneuver a white piece onto the board with a thought, and then said indifferently:

"Black or white, it's all the same. You're going to lose either way."
