Armament Haki

Lin Feng's rhetorical question made Qi Lin's eyelids twitch uncontrollably.

How did he know my secret?

That day, I was obviously cold from the very beginning.

I never showed any abnormality at all.

"There was once an extremely powerful civilization in the universe known as the Divine River Civilization.

After the Divine River Civilization developed to an extraordinarily advanced level, it encountered a terrifying 'celestial disaster,' which wiped out the entire civilization.

Only those Divine River people who happened to be outside the Divine River Nebula when the disaster struck survived.

Since then, they had wandered among the countless races of the universe.

They left descendants behind in many civilizations.

And you are one of the descendants of the Divine River Civilization."

In the original work.

The author had not mentioned much about the Divine River Civilization.

This was practically all the information Lin Feng knew.

"So I really am an alien."

After hearing Lin Feng's explanation.

Qi Lin's expression became somewhat desolate.

She really was an alien.

Not an Earthling with superpowers.

Lin Feng shook his head.

"Broaden your perspective. All humanoid creatures belong to the Divine River Body category, so although there are some differences in our genetic systems, we are generally still the same kind."

Liu Chuang wore an enlightened expression.

"So it's basically like the relationship between white people, black people, and yellow people?"

Liu Chuang really could not understand all that genetic-system stuff.

But he roughly got it.

Weren't all Earthlings different from one another too?

Lin Feng pondered for a moment.

Then nodded speechlessly.

Qi Lin lightly bit her lip.

She suddenly asked Lin Feng:

"Lin Feng. Do you still need people here? Can I join you?"

Qi Lin had long known that she was special.

The number of photoreceptor cells in her eyes was probably over ten million.

As long as she focused all her attention on her eyes.

She could even see things more than ten kilometers away.

Besides that.

She could freely control her sensory abilities throughout her body.

Regarding this.

Qi Lin had never dared mention it to anyone else.

Because she was afraid others would treat her like a freak.

Now that she had finally encountered others like herself.

Qi Lin felt as though she had found her group.

"Of course."

After hearing Qi Lin's request, Lin Feng agreed immediately without even thinking.

There really was a problem with his team's overall style right now.

A huge problem!

Liu Chuang's looks had already been bad enough.

After Souton joined.

The team's average looks had fallen to a truly miserable level!

If Qi Lin could join them.

Then Qi Lin could serve as the face of the team.

"The Taotie and Demons will launch a full-scale invasion of Earth before long. You won't really be safe staying with the police force either. You might as well come train with me, so you'll at least have some means to protect yourself in the future."

In the original story, Qi Lin became a sniper for Super Soldier Company.

But no one ever upgraded the genes within her body.

That ultimately turned her into a rather underwhelming warrior.

Lin Feng had always found that deeply regrettable.

"How about this? I'll first teach you about the Taotie and Demons later. Then I'll teach you a skill called 'Armament Haki,' which you can use for self-defense."

The skills Lin Feng possessed came from All Heavens and Myriad Realms.

Some skills required specific energy systems to use.

For example, Flash Step and Wind Barrier.

Skills of that sort—

he had no way of teaching them to others.

Because he did not know how to cultivate those energy systems.

The only reason he could use them directly

was because he had the Golden Finger known as the system.

But Armament Haki was different from those skills.

What Armament Haki consumed was physical stamina.

Therefore, Qi Lin and Liu Chuang, whose physical constitutions had already improved, were extremely well-suited to training in Armament Haki!
