Wen Chang rubbed his forehead for a while before he felt better. Raising his head, he met the Phantom Team members’ gazes. Everyone was staring at him with curiosity.
"What happened to me?" he asked hoarsely.
Noticing his voice, Wen Kai handed a bottle of water to him and said, "Brother, drink some water first."
Wen Chang nodded and finished half of the bottle of water before he felt much better.
"Brother, you were infected with the parasites and have been unconscious for more than a week. It was thanks to my Sister-in-law that we were able to save you."
Hearing this, Wen Chang turned to Jiao Lizhi and said, "Thank you, Comrade Jiao."
Jiao Lizhi nodded and smiled.
"Let me take a look at him first," Gao Bohai said.
The Wen brothers made room for him so he could check on their brother’s condition. Twenty minutes later, Gao Bohai said, "Everything is normal now. He is no longer in danger."
Thanks to the energy transfer method, he now knew how to use his energy to check other people’s conditions better. He combined the method with his medical experience, which allowed him to check vitals without the need for machines.
At the same time, Jiang Ziyi’s voice echoed in Jiao Lizhi’s mind. "Now that he woke up, it means that all of the Matkuna eggs inside his body have been absorbed."
"He should have advanced at least one or two levels from all the energy he absorbed in the past week. It should be counted as a blessing in disguise."
When she heard this, Jiao Lizhi asked, "Brother Wen, do you feel anything different in your body?"
After she said this, Wen Chang finally realized that his body indeed felt different. He could see clearly, and his hearing was much better than before.
He closed his eyes and inspected his body for a moment before opening them again. "I have broken through two levels."
"What?!" Xiao Qi was shocked.
"I should be at Level Five now. How could this happen?" Wen Chang muttered in disbelief.
"With so much energy being transferred to you, added to the parasites being absorbed by you, it’s normal for you to break through one or two levels," Du Beiye replied casually.
"Not only you, but even the members’ energy pools should improve," Jiao Lizhi added.
The moment she said this, everyone was stunned.
They didn’t notice anything because they were too focused on saving people. Now that they had checked carefully, they realized that their energy pool had expanded by leaps and bounds, and they were reaching their limits.
Even their mental strength seemed to have improved. They would be able to attempt another breakthrough soon.
Knowing that he said the wrong thing, Xie Zhou quickly changed his tune, "No, no more next time!"
Narrowing her eyes, Wei Yunli said, "You’d better keep your promise, or I will resign from my post!"
"Yes, Ma’am!"
Now that the crisis had finally passed, Ye Wuze noticed something and asked, "Ah Zhou, did you have a breakthrough?"
Xie Zhou nodded and leaned closer to whisper, "Thanks to Comrade Jiao’s timely help, we managed to turn this crisis into a blessing. She gave us a solution that could turn the parasites into energy and let our bodies absorb it."
When he heard this, Ye Wuze was taken aback. But when he looked at the group, he noticed that even the weakest among them was at least a Level Three mutant.
The parasites only infected Level Two or above mutants. Now that they had absorbed the parasites, it was indeed understandable for them to have a breakthrough.
After a moment of silence, Wei Yunli suddenly asked, "Is this considered a major power boost for our base?"
Hearing this, both Xie Zhou and Ye Wuze turned to her. Thinking about it, it was indeed as she said.
The number of people who survived this time was more than 200. Although the number was not much compared to the total population of the Green Lake Base, the average level of these people was Level 4. Some of them even reached Level 5 or Level 6.
The difference in strength with each level was massive. One Level 4 mutant could fight against 50 Level 2 mutants without a problem. Therefore, the significance of this power boost was huge.
