Chapter 3:
The normal visual range suddenly stretched very far.
In the zero field of view, Lia and the items in the room had shrunk in an instant, as if they were standing hundreds of meters away from each other.
Naturally, this was not the case. Zero was still sitting in his original position. It was just that the distance between him and his field of view had changed.
He was a little taken aback, and subconsciously tried to make sure of Lia.
As this thought appeared in his mind, the field of vision suddenly drew closer.
Leah’s figure filled the view of zero, so clearly that it could even be seen through the collar of Nagase’s shirt to the snowy peaks of Leah’s mountain range.
Perhaps he didn’t know that at the same time his vision changed, the Silver Beast pupil in the Golden Eye also changed.
When the animal pupil is vertical, the visual field is far away.
When the beast eyes were round, the vision would be brought closer.
However, the free change of the visual field is limited to the right eye of zero.
His left eye was completely normal, so the two different fields of vision made him dizzy.
He couldn’t help but close his eyes, but in his mind, a voice kept asking, “What’s wrong with me?”
Lia saw the change in the Golden Eye and asked happily, “How is it? Do you feel something strange?”
Zero opened his eyes. The silver beast eyes in his left eye had disappeared, turning into countless hair-thin silver threads that filled the edges of his pupils.
He shook his head and said, “I’ve let you down. Everything is normal.”
Even he didn’t know why there was such a change in the field of view, so he decided to keep it a secret, including from Leah.
“Forget it, you only have a rather pretty eye.”
Lia was a little disappointed, but very soon, the young girl regained her vigor.
She finished her meal and said, “You take a rest. I’ll go prepare the identification device.”
Zero nodded and watched her push the door open and leave.
He knew that the identification device had something to do with what Old Jack had described as “ability appraisal.” Leah had mentioned “Adept” and “Evolution Point,” which was a new term for zeros.
At least in his memory, there was no such thing.
His brain was like a high-precision computer that was quickly operating. He analyzed and classified all the information he received after waking up, and finally came to a conclusion.
“Is it evolution?”
Zero muttered softly to himself. He had a rudimentary conception of the world from what he had seen and heard.
After what they call the Cataclysm, the genes of life have changed dramatically.
Some of these genes are so mutated that they produce all sorts of monsters.
A small percentage of the genes, however, showed signs of evolution, and so there were the Adepts and the Evolved Points.
Adepts were supposed to be the new humans. However, due to the lack of information, it was impossible to figure out where they were coming from.
Now, Old Jack had asked Lea to do a competency check on him.
In other words, Old Jack suspected he was an Adept.
The basis of his suspicions should be related to his right eye.
With that thought in mind, Zero stood up, using the bottom of the aluminum plate as a mirror, and raised it in front of his face.
The dark black pupil was completely different from the gold pupil. This caused Zero himself to be slightly stunned.
Then he smiled wryly. It was no wonder that Old Jack had such an elegant imagination.
No matter who it was, they couldn’t be related to normal people.
Zero thought.
“The instrument is ready. You can come over here. What are you doing?”
Leah pushed the door open and came in. She was curious as to what Zero was doing with the plate.
Zero put down the plate and shook his head.
Leah didn’t pursue the matter. She waved Zero into the next room.
It was a laboratory like room.
All sorts of test tubes and utensils were placed in the room. There was even an operating table.
There were bloodstains on the operating table, and he didn’t know what had been lying there.
In one corner of the lab, a machine similar to an old magnetic resonance device was being powered on.
Leah worked at the machine in a way that no one could understand, but it was easy to see that the machine was an appraiser.
“Even though grandpa didn’t know where I got the old model identification device, the only thing that can be appraised is the ability below the Third Order and the basic body comprehensive index.”
But I think it should be enough for you.
No matter what, you don’t look like a powerhouse of the third step or above, right? ”
Her hands flying, Leigh worked at the console.
Lingcun was lost in thought. This pair of hands shouldn’t be manipulating an ability appraisal instrument, but rather playing intoxicating piano music on the big stage.
“Hey, come over here.”
Leah’s voice broke the illusion of zero, and the girl pointed to the platform at the entrance of the instrument. “Here, you lie on top of this.”
Zero nodded and went over to lie down.
Old Jack came in, too, and stood beside Leah. He gave her a cold look, but said nothing.
Lia was nervous, too, and pressed the start button to announce the identification.
Ling Chen closed his eyes and felt the platform under his feet slide into the storage area of the instrument under the driving force of the mechanical pulley.
Following which, various kinds of lights lit up within the apparatus. Zero knew that countless data was being formed and was being transmitted to the display on the control board.
Old Jack stared at the monitor, eyes wide.
As the data formed, the emotionless voice of the computer chimed in, “Appraisal completed.”
Target: Human.
Body comprehensive index, using standard data as a reference value.
Strength: 20%, body strength: 0%, muscles explosive power: 0%.
Ability: None
“Evolution point: None.”
A series of data flashed across the display screen, and Old Jack’s face turned gloomy.
Especially when the last two numbers came out, he grunted and slammed the door, followed by the roar of his voice.
Lia sighed softly as she listened to her grandfather’s voice.
When Zero came out of the instrument, he sat up on the landing and looked thoughtfully at the door. “Was he disappointed?”
Lia smiled bitterly and said, “Don’t blame Grandpa. He’s not easy to deal with these years either.”
He had worked hard all his life for the masters of the Parkland plutocracy, and now the plutocrats were cultivating young executives to replace their grandfathers.
“If we don’t have this job, Grandpa and I will be having a tough time. That’s why Grandpa has been hoping for someone with a special ability to take charge so he can increase his influence on the corporate world.”
“Are Adepts that useful?”
Zero asked.
Leah nodded vigorously. “You probably don’t know,” she said, “that after the Cataclysm, the ground was covered with intense radiation, and 90 percent of the world’s population died, and only 0 percent survived.”
In order to survive, whether it was humans or animals, all the genes of life, after experiencing the instability of the Cataclysm, constantly evolved or mutated in just fifty years.
“Adepts, however, are the result of gene evolution.”
From Leigh’s lips, he had completed a systematic cognition of the new world.
Adept is a product of gene evolution.
Through battles with mutated creatures, they could be tested in harsh environments or for various reasons.
In this turbulent year, the human gene was changing and evolving at a terrifying speed.
In the process, they produce the point of evolution.
Evolutionary point is a new member of the gene chain. Its appearance breaks the original gene composition of human beings and evolves into a variety of abilities from the surface.
The Homo Evolutis who possessed the ability to evolve were known as Adepts.
The classification and generalization of Adepts’ abilities took shape after half a century of argument and debate.
All present and known abilities are divided into five areas.
They are: the field of elements, the field of fighting, the field of perception, the field of mutation and the field of rules.
And different domains had different abilities, they were split into twelve levels.
But in theory, there was a saying of the thirteenth step.
Legend has it that when one maximizes their strength and breaks through the bottleneck of the twelfth step, they will enter the thirteenth step.
Ability users of the thirteenth step would produce absolute domains, which were similar to energy fields. Within the scope of the energy field, the ability would be maximized, even reaching the height of a god.
However, up until now, there had never been a Divine level expert of the thirteenth step in the world, so it had always been regarded as a legendary realm.
The five abilities naturally had different domains.
The Elemental Domain is the ability to manipulate the energy of various elements in the natural world. The known energy elements include the earth, fire, water, wind, thunder, light and darkness.
The ability users of the Elemental Domain were also known as mages, representing the reverence of the world towards them.
Those who were skilled in the field of combat were all elites.
The ability in this field includes various weapons specialization, as well as strength, defense, agility and other related combat ability enhancement.
Then comes the field of perception, where the power of the mind manifests itself mostly in the power of the mind.
They were the most powerful of all the abilities. They had the most powerful psychic power, and possessed the most incredible abilities such as Mind Imaging, Mind’s Eye, Soul Chains, Soul Impressions, Soul Teleportation, and so on.
If it was said that in the above three areas of ability, those with abilities were no different from ordinary people in terms of appearance.
In that case, those with the ability to change regions were undoubtedly monsters like existences.
Capabilities in this field, they can recombine their genes in a short period of time, thus transforming into another organism to fight.
Among the known mutants are the animal, insect, ancient species, and the most terrifying demon.
The last is the domain of rules.
The so-called domain of rules was the domain of a major power that grasped certain rules.

However, for the time being, there was no one in the world who had the ability to enter the domain of laws, even if there was only one.
Thus, the domain of rules and the legendary thirteenth ability were only average, becoming a theoretical domain.
However, some people predicted that whoever had the ability to control the domain of laws would become the living god of this world!
