Showcase and Testing (Part 2) (Thanks to Loyal Servant Wang Cai for the Silver Alliance)

As instructed by Lao Xia, Xiang Kun controlled a Coin to suspend in front of him, and then made it rotate around him like a "satellite".

Then he controlled the Coin, sending it flying towards the wall of an abandoned factory.

The Coin hit the wall with a thud, then fell to the ground, leaving no mark on the wall.

For the time being, he is unable to control the Coin to accelerate continuously and stably along the electromagnetic track he has established in a certain direction. The force he can apply is still very limited, and it becomes extremely weak when it is far away from his body, making it difficult to control stably.

After Xiang Kun took the Coin back, he looked at Lao Xia, who was using a pen to record his observations with special symbols, and suddenly had an inspiration.

"Give me all the Coin you have, and that steel ball too. I suddenly have an idea to try it out."

Xia Libing didn't ask any questions and handed over the Coin and beads that Xiang Kun had given her as instructed. Then she saw those "Super-Linked Object" begin to float in the air one by one, attached to Xiang Kun.

Not only did he take out the multiple Coin from Lao Xia's pocket, but he also took out the beads that Xiang Kun was originally carrying and had them floating around him.

Controlling so many "Super-Linked Object" at the same time, Xiang Kun could no longer make them spin and jump; he could only make them float around him like "elf bodyguards."

Xiang Kun closed his eyes and focused his attention on the dozens of "Super-Linked Object" around him, beginning to use their influence to create a magnetic field that he could apply to himself.

Some of the "Super-Linked Object" began to rise and hover near his head, while others spread all over his body.

Suddenly, dust rose from the ground around Xiang Kun, like small whirlwinds forming.

Xia Libing, who was not far from him, also noticed that his body hair and hair were slightly "raising their heads".

Xiang Kun suddenly opened his eyes, and the surrounding "Super-Linked Object" seemed to have lost their souls, all scattering to the ground.

It wasn't that Xiang Kun had reached a bottleneck in his perception, but rather that he suddenly remembered something important and had to temporarily stop.

Xiang Kun walked up to Lao Xia, took out his phone, and handed it to Lao Xia: "Stay away from me."

Xia Libing took the phone and stepped back five or six paces.

Xiang Kun waved his hand. "Further away."

So she continued on.

After moving Lao Xia to a sufficiently far distance, Xiang Kun returned to his previous position to resume the operation that had been interrupted.

Dozens of "Super-Linked Object" floated up again.

Gradually, miniature wind vortices reappeared around, and dust particles slowly rose from a few centimeters to several tens of centimeters in diameter. Some tiny particles seemed to be attracted by something and rushed straight into the middle of those "Super-Linked Object".

A faint, ethereal light gathered and flowed Xiang Kun's body. After a moment, his feet began to lift slightly off the ground.

His shoes were only 3 or 4 centimeters off the ground, and almost immediately fell back down. The light emanating from his body also disappeared, and all the "Super-Linked Object" fell to the ground out of control.

But Xiang Kun excitedly shouted to Lao Xia, "Did you see that?"

However, he immediately realized that Lao Xia was too far away, and the distance he was in the air was too low. Not everyone has his kind of super vision, so it would be difficult for him to observe him.

So Xiang Kun glanced around, spotted a five-story office building, raised his hand, collected the scattered "Super-Linked Object" on the ground, and rushed toward the office building with them.

Instead of climbing the stairs, Xiang Kun pushed off the wall to get up, grabbed the second-floor windowsill with both hands, and used the protruding side of the floor to continue climbing quickly.

He hadn't specifically learned parkour or building climbing techniques, but as he ran towards the building, he had already devised several plans to reach the top based on his own athletic ability and the structure of the wall, and then selected the fastest route that best showcased his physical prowess.

Xiang Kun climbed to the top of the five-story building in less than ten seconds.

This office building, like the abandoned factory area, is a structure slated for demolition; there's not a soul in it.

Xiang Kun waved to Xia Libing from the rooftop, signaling her to watch carefully, then started walking backward to the other side of the rooftop, and began his running start.

Using the space on the rooftop, Xiang Kun ran at full speed. When he was almost at the edge of the building he had climbed up, he took a big leap, placed his feet on the railing, pushed off with all his might, spread his arms, and jumped out.

During his run-up, dozens of colorful "Super-Linked Object" clung tightly to his body, and when he leaped off the rooftop and took to the air, these "Super-Linked Object" all seemed to be activated and floated into the air.

Xiang Kun, leaping off the rooftop, looked like a large bird about to take flight; his posture was quite cool.

But this is also when he looks the coolest.

Next, as Xiang Kun began to fall, a force suddenly lifted him up half a meter, but he quickly resumed his free fall at an angle, and after descending for a while, he was once again lifted up by a force.

And so, Xiang Kun's "flight" from the fifth floor was like being kicked upwards with each descent, causing him to tilt and even tumble. He would be kicked every time he fell, and then tumbled to the ground.

Lying on the ground, feeling that more than a dozen bones in his body were broken, his internal organs were bleeding, and his skin was covered in bruises, Xiang Kun couldn't help but sigh inwardly: This wasn't what he had imagined. He had thought that he could use the effects of the "Super-Linked Object" to gracefully spread his arms and glide for a distance, then land steadily on his feet and run a short distance to relieve the inertia...

The sound of rapid footsteps approached, and Xiang Kun knew it was Lao Xia.

After Xia Libing rushed over, she lay down next to Xiang Kun and reached out to touch his neck.

Xiang Kun turned his head to look at her and said helplessly, "I'm still alive, I'm fine, I just need to rest for a few minutes."

However, Xiang Kun was taken aback when he saw Lao Xia's face— Lao Xia was half-lying on the ground, staring intently at him, her cheeks were a little red, and her breathing was a little rapid. Even without sensing the pair of chopsticks she always carried with her, Xiang Kun could see the obvious excitement and agitation she had never seen before. Moreover, she was clenching her fists, as if she was restraining something.

Xiang Kun instantly understood what had happened. He had suddenly been inspired by the application of the "Super-Linked Object" ability, and his emotions had become excessively excited without him realizing it. If it weren't for that emotion, normally, even if he felt that success was possible, he wouldn't have run to the fifth floor and jumped off, ending up in such a terrible state.

Lao Xia was also affected by his "Emotional Assimilation" and developed the same frequency of excitement.

It seems that Lao Xia is even more excited than him.

However, the sight of Lao Xia's excited, shining eyes made Xiang Kun a little uneasy. According to the influence of "Emotional Assimilation," Xiang Kun was excited because of his pioneering exploration of his own abilities and thrilled by his inspirations and successful attempts. Lao Xia, who was affected by this, was excited and thrilled because he directly witnessed the whole process.

So it's quite obvious that now that he's rushed over and confirmed that he's still alive, influenced by that emotion, Lao Xia looks at him with an impulse to dissect him and study him, to see how he managed to do those things.

If Xiang Kun were a flying machine or a robot, Lao Xia would probably be unscrewing the screws by now...

Fortunately, Xiang Kun's emotions have now recovered, and the effects of "Emotional Assimilation" on Xia Libing could not last long. She also quickly returned to her previous clear and rational state.

"What happened to you in the air just now?" Since Xiang Kun said he was fine and could recover, Xia Libing, having regained her composure, didn't do much more. She sat cross-legged to the side, took out her notebook, and began to ask questions.

As Xiang Kun answered Xia Libing's questions, his body was also rapidly recovering, with occasional crisp popping sounds as his dislocated bones were putting back into place.

Although the results may seem somewhat disastrous, this experiment was actually quite fruitful and groundbreaking.

In the early stages of the mutation, Xiang Kun's ability to influence the "Super-Linked Object" remotely was relatively weak. After defeating the mutated spider and the Little Chubby Girl began to help him "develop" electromagnetic-related abilities, he could only control the relatively lightweight "Super-Linked Object" to move in a limited way in a region very close to his body.

But on the bullet train back to Citong, the Little Chubby Girl helped him further develop some functions, which also opened up new application ideas for him and allowed him to find a larger space for expanded applications.

That is, no longer limiting the ability to control and influence "Super-Linked Object" to the "Super-Linked Object" themselves, but using this influence to act on the surroundings of the "Super-Linked Object", changing from "changing oneself" to "transforming the environment".

Therefore, by taking advantage of changes in the environment, one can further exert influence on the "Super-Linked Object," or on other things, or on itself.

Based on his deductions on the high-speed train, theoretically, he might be able to achieve Electric Flight without relying entirely on atmospheric electric fields by utilizing the influence of a sufficient number of "Super-Linked Object".

However, according to his prediction at the time, at the earliest, any breakthrough in this application direction would only be possible after his next blood-drinking slumber, when his body, based on the abilities developed by the Little Chubby Girl and his own understanding and expansion, would mutate and evolve, and establish more "Super-Linked Object" as support for "hardware functions".

Unexpectedly, from the Little Chubby Girl developed her new ability until now, only a few days have passed, and she hasn't even drunk blood once. She has already found a way to levitate using "Super-Linked Object"—although she only rose a few centimeters from the spot, it was already quite remarkable, considering that she weighs over 200 pounds.

In other words, in terms of "function", he already has the ability to fly directly, but the "magnitude" of the ability is not enough and the degree of control is not sufficient.

It is foreseeable that his ability to expand in this area will be much faster than previously anticipated.

Perhaps after another one or two blood-drinking periods, he won't have to worry about the weather anymore and can fly whenever he wants.

After fully recovering, Xiang Kun turned over and sat up, saying to Lao Xia, "So, what do you think?"

Xia Libing shook her head. "This feeling isn't good; it's like it could make me lose control."

Xiang Kun was taken aback for a moment, then realized that she was referring to the excitement, not to his flight.

"That's the feeling, it's excitement and agitation. But it's not out of control, it's just excessive focus. Actually, if you weren't affected by this feeling, I could quickly regain your senses by sensing the 'Emotional Injection items' around you and relying on your normal...emotions," Xiang Kun said.

Xia Libing thought for a moment and said, "Try again."

"Try what? Get that excited again like before? No way, I can't do that right now. Those emotions aren't so easy to achieve."

Xiang Kun was speaking, he suddenly listened intently, then frowned and stood up. "Someone's coming from nearby... Never mind, that's enough for today, let's go back."

Xia Libing also got up, patted his pants, and began to pack the things they had brought.

They brought quite a bit of equipment with them, including a shoulder bag and a backpack, which Xiang Kun carried. However, what would be a considerable weight for an average person was nothing to Xiang Kun.

However, after walking only a few steps, Xiang Kun stopped and told Xia Libing about some of the noise he had heard. He then said, "Those people who just came over were electric scooter thieves. They hid the stolen scooters in a warehouse in this abandoned factory. My mom had two electric scooters stolen from her before..."

Xia Libing looked up at him, quickly understood what he meant, and then took out her phone to call the police.

"No signal." Xia Libing frowned and tried to restart the phone, but it was still the same.

"Isn't my phone with you too?" Xiang Kun said.

"There's no signal either." Xia Libing took out Xiang Kun's phone, looked at it, and shook her head.

Xiang Kun immediately understood; this must have been caused by his interference.

"Well... let's split up first. You can go somewhere far away for a while, you should recover..." Xiang Kun said, but then changed his mind. "Never mind, let's go check it out first. There are only three of them anyway, I want to do an experiment."

Xia Libing naturally had no objections and followed Xiang Kun to a corner of the abandoned factory area.

Xiang Kun hid the two bags they had brought inside a building, then led Xia Libing through a maze of twists and turns, until they reached a corner, where he peeked out and looked at the warehouse not far away. "It's over there."

Xia Libing leaned close to his head and followed his gaze. She saw a van parked outside a warehouse, with a flatbed on top, from which people were unloading electric vehicles.

Those electric bikes came from various brands, and were of different ages. Based on the information Xiang Kun had just heard, they were all stolen.

"What kind of experiment are you going to conduct?" Xia Libing asked.

Xiang Kun then explained to Lao Xia in a low voice for a while, and explained what he needed to do and what he needed Lao Xia to do.

A few minutes later, a tall, thin young man who was unloading a truck outside the warehouse was suddenly hit on the head by something. He exclaimed in surprise and was startled, then noticed a dark object rolling on the ground.

He looked around as he walked over and picked up the thing that had hit him with his nylon-gloved hand—a pig's trotter that looked crispy on the outside.

The tall, thin young man looked around in confusion, trying to pinpoint the direction from which the pork knuckle had come. "Who? Who threw that?" Judging from the feeling just now, it seemed like the pork knuckle had fallen from directly above.

"What is it?" A portly-looking middle-aged man came out of the warehouse, frowning as he asked, "What's all the shouting about?"

"Someone threw a pig's trotter at me..." the young man said, handing the pig's trotter in his hand to the middle-aged man to see.

"What pig's trotters?" the middle-aged man asked in surprise.

The young man was astonished to find that the pig's trotter he had just been holding had vanished, and there was nothing in his hand now!
