Level of Brain Development
The next day, Yelena woke up groggily.
There were neatly folded clothes and a glass of water next to her.
She knew without even thinking that it was made by that thoughtful maid.
When she came out after washing up, she ran into a radiant Natasha.
"Morning."
Natasha spoke first.
Yelena exclaimed enviously, "How come it also has a moisturizing effect? Your skin seems to have improved!"
"Really? That's great."
Natasha smiled.
Where is Li Chen?
He'll be out in a bit.
Natasha and Yelena went downstairs together; the manor was already quite lively.
Upon seeing so many people, Natasha fell silent.
Bayonetta, Jeanne, Nami, and 2B are all characters from different works.
This made Natasha even more convinced of Li Chen's abilities.
She couldn't understand how Li Chen had done it.
[Lucy is currently showing in theaters; gained +4500 reputation points]
[...]
[Current Reputation Value: 120073]
The popularity of "Lucy" is not as high as its previous works, and its reputation value is not increasing as quickly.
But at least I managed to collect enough for a ten-pull.
He hasn't entered the raffle yet since "Lucy" was released. He's very curious about CPH4 and doesn't know if it really works.
"Let's do a ten-pull!"
[Should I use 100,000 reputation points for a 10-pull lottery?]
"Yes!"
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have won one bag of CPH4 through the lottery.]
To my surprise, the goods were shipped out immediately.
Li Chen was pleasantly surprised.
[CPH4: This is a substance produced during the sixth week of pregnancy that provides energy for the baby's bone growth. Its use can develop the brain to a certain extent and can be used indefinitely until brain development reaches 100%.]
[Note: An ordinary physique cannot withstand the brain being developed to its limits, which will inevitably lead to physical collapse, resulting in the body merging with the Dao.]
This is different from the movie, where Lucy's brain is continuously developed, and at a very fast pace.
Moreover, she only absorbed it that one time and did not continue to absorb it afterward.
However, according to the system's description, the CPH4 extracted by Li Chen can be continuously absorbed and will not be further developed.
This means that it is 'controllable'.
In the movie, Lucy certainly doesn't want her brain to be constantly developed; if it could be stabilized to a certain level, she would truly be a god among men.
Unfortunately, this evolution couldn't be stopped, which ultimately led to her being unable to become human again.
But now, this evolution is controllable!
"That's pretty impressive."
Li Chen was overjoyed, but the lottery draw continued.
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have won 4 CPH through the lottery!]
[Bayonetta's Lollipop *3]
[Tatsumaki Summoning Fragment]
[Fubuki Summoning Fragment]
Li Chen got five bags of CPH4 in ten consecutive pulls, feeling the drop rate was pretty good.
He shut down the system, and with a flick of his palm, a bag of blue crystalline powder appeared, looking extremely alluring.
Following the system's instructions, Li Chen drank the mixed water directly.
There wasn't anything particularly special about it, just a slight feeling of warmth in my body.
[Ding, the host has absorbed CPH4, and brain development has reached 21%.]
According to the movie's premise, the average person's brain is only about 10% developed.
Developing 20% of the brain can enhance bodily functions, making the five senses extremely acute, allowing one to perceive energy flow, and even see the internal structure of objects—essentially making one Superman.
Li Chen was already capable of doing these things, so it's normal that his brain development level reached over 20%.
This left Li Chen somewhat disappointed.
"I thought I had a highly developed brain."
After all, he has the Kryptonian Physiology.
When Kryptonians absorb solar energy, it not only improves their physical condition but also their brains.
The brain is already being developed.
I just didn't expect it to be so little...
No wonder, the Super Brain only ever tells him to use superpowers.
"One more pack, please."
Li Chen wanted to know how much could be added to one packet.
He made another packet and drank it, feeling full even from drinking water.
[Ding! The host has absorbed CPH4, and brain development has reached 22%.]
One pack increased the price by one percent.
"I don't know if it's a fixed increase, or if it slows down as you go on."
"It seems that developing one's brain to 100% is really not easy."
Li Chen thought about it for a moment, and figured that if it were like in the movies, one pack would probably be enough.
He simply used up the rest, increasing it directly to 25%.
Li Chen didn't feel much difference in the improvement of his brain development.
Perhaps he was just naturally very healthy.
After all, he possesses Super Vision Super Hearing, so subtle improvements are barely noticeable to him.
Downstairs, Natasha and Yelena had already discussed their plan.
When Li Chen came down for dinner, he said directly, "We've decided to set off to find Dreykov as soon as possible."
"So urgent?"
Li Chen asked.
"Dreykov is a very cautious man; he will definitely move to a different location. If we arrive too late, we'll lose track of them, and finding them again will be difficult."
Natasha began, "And he's ruthless. What if he lays a hand on the other sisters..."
This is also what Natasha is worried about.
Li Chen laughed and said, "I can find him very quickly."
"No."
However, Natasha and Yelena both shook their heads and pleaded, "We want to take revenge ourselves, let us do it."
This demonstrates the depth of their hatred for Dreykov.
Li Chen readily agreed, "Okay, but I won't stand by and watch you face danger."
"Good."
With Li Chen saying that, Natasha and the others felt much more confident.
"By the way, can 2B and the others help us?"
Natasha then asked.
After all, there are still a lot of Black Widows. Although she didn't know the exact number, there were no fewer than a thousand.
Thousands of skilled Black Widows, if used properly, could secretly control the world.
Li Chen looked at 2B and A2, who immediately stood up, while the others showed no interest.
They weren't familiar with Natasha and Yelena, so naturally they didn't want to help.
For example, Bayonetta and Jeanne went out right after finishing their meal.
"They are enough."
Natasha laughed, "After all, we're going to infiltrate."
She didn't intend to attack directly, given the enemy's superior numbers.
Secret agents excel at infiltration.
"Plus my two teammates, that makes six people."
Yelena asked doubtfully, "Can they handle it?"
"I've been training them all along."
Natasha replied, "And... they have superpowers."
Natasha had no need to hide anything, since they would be fighting side by side soon, and it was natural for her to get to know her teammates.
"Oh?"
Yelena was somewhat surprised. "What superpower?"
"Skye, she can unleash Quake with the power of a small earthquake."
Upon hearing this, Li Chen realized it was indeed the Quake.
