Yan Dongxu's mind was filled with questions. Just by taking his pulse, she could tell that he had already awakened his superpowers?
Did Liu Ling really have that ability?
"What are you talking about? I don't understand," Yan Dongxu continued to pretend to be confused.
"The pulse of superhumans is different from that of ordinary people."
"I've had the opportunity to take the pulse of a few superhumans before and accumulated some experience."
"And your pulse is much stronger than that of ordinary superhumans."
Liu Ling said lightly and firmly, completely convinced of her own judgment.
"Forget about me, tell me about those superhumans who took the gene medicine last night," Yan Dongxu changed the subject, not wanting to say more about himself.
Liu Ling revealed a strange smile and said lightly, "This world is about to change. You pioneers will soon stand at the pinnacle of this world. I hope you can formulate good rules."
Liu Ling's words were meaningful but somewhat exaggerated. Yan Dongxu could not agree.
"First of all, I'm not a pioneer. I don't have the ability to make rules either."
"No matter how this world changes, I will always be just an entertainment anchor."
He started the car to take Liu Ling back to the police station.
On the way, neither of them said anything.
When the car arrived at the police station, Yan Dongxu saw Du Sen and other members of the Firefox Team inside the police station.
"Huh? What are you doing here?" Du Sen asked in surprise when he saw him.
Yan Dongxu recounted what had happened that morning.
"We were just about to look for Liu Ling. Did the autopsy report on the corpses brought in last night come out?" Du Sen asked eagerly.
Liu Lin rolled her eyes. "Do you really treat me as a machine? There are more than a hundred corpses. We worked overnight and have only dissected a few."
"However, the conclusions obtained are mostly death caused by heart overload."
"Of course, this is just the manifestation. The main reason is that the stimulation of the gene medicine on all organs is too great, which causes problems with the heart."
Du Sen nodded. "Well, send me an electronic copy of the report first."
"OK! Wait a moment. You guys chat, I'll get busy first. And thank you for taking me here," Liu Ling smiled at Yan Dongxu, then started her busy day's work.
"Big Brother Du, is the news spreading online about gene medicine real?" Yan Dongxu asked worriedly.
"Yes!" Du Sen nodded heavily with a grave expression. "Death Coffin is too hateful, treating human life like grass. Large amounts of medicine have flowed into all parts of the country."
"Just the number of deaths I learned about this morning has already reached 100,000."
"Although this figure is frightening, what's even scarier is that the number of people who awakened superpowers last night has already exceeded 800."
"This figure is not real, because there may be many more unrecorded people."
"Now the whole country is in chaos. The crime rate in all regions has surged. It will provoke public outrage in a few days."
Du Sen was quite troubled. Death Coffin had poured substandard gene medicine into all parts of the country, causing their workload to surge.
Many superhumans who had awakened committed crimes, and they had become the main force to catch them.
Not only the Firefox Team, but members of other teams were also overworked.
Yan Dongxu comforted Du Sen for a while, then drove away.
Du Sen watched Yan Dongxu's car gradually disappearing into the distance, cursing with a murmur: "Damn kid, didn't even offer to help me!"
In response to the situation where a large number of people had died due to gene medicine, the top leaders quickly responded, hoping that people would not take the medicine with high mortality rate.
It was also stated that using gene medicine has an 80% mortality rate and a 5% awakening rate. The public was strongly advised not to use it, and to hand over any gene medicine obtained to the police in a timely manner.
For a time, all media was flooded with the top leaders' prompt news.
Yan Dongxu also received a call from Du Sen at the first moment, telling him to start live streaming to advise people not to use gene medicine. This was an order from the top leaders.
Although he was not under the Superhuman Alliance, he had benefited from them before.
So at this moment, he absolutely could not stand idly by and watch the excitement.
When he returned home, he started live streaming at the first moment.
He advised everyone to obey orders that gene medicine was too dangerous and would cost them their lives after taking it.
Some viewers listened to his advice while others retorted like mules.
【Hahaha, now that you have special abilities and have reached the pinnacle of life, driving supercars, with beauties by your side, you advise us to give up the opportunity to awaken?】
【That's right, you don't live on a monthly salary of 2,000 with 1,000 rent. How can you tell us to give up the chance to change our destiny? 】
【We fear death, but we fear more that we will live in misery all our lives. We want change.】
......
Many people expressed their attitudes. Yan Dongxu understood them very well too.
Most people were struggling painfully in their lives, how many could break free from misery?
Viewers liked to watch his live stream, simply because he fulfilled the fantasies of most people.
Because he was living the life that most people aspired to.
Yan Dongxu didn't know what to say. He felt he had no right to persuade everyone.
Wasn't it said that one's destiny lies in their own hands?
From another perspective, if he himself was on the verge of crisis with a bottle of gene medicine on the table that could change everything,
He would probably choose to drink it too, knowing that there was an 80% chance that he would die.
Just as he was lost in thought, the tone of the barrage comments suddenly changed drastically.
【Fuck, the top leaders have released news again!】
【Is this news real?】
【If it's true, who would drink that lousy medicine anymore!】
【Hahaha, those fools drank themselves to death. They must be regretting in hell now!】
【Awesome! Looks like everyone will awaken superpowers now!】
【That's right, not only did they provide a method to awaken, they also said that official versions of gene medicine would be launched later.】
【I saw it too. It was said that there would be no deaths with the official version of gene medicine. Even if you don't awaken, diarrhea at worst.】
【Guys, I won't say anymore. I'm going to download the Breathing Technique. Stay tuned for my good news.】
Yan Dongxu was baffled. He took out another mobile phone to check the latest news.
Sure enough, the top leaders were decisive and cut the mess quickly.
Having found people's weakness of drinking substandard gene medicine regardless of life and death, they directly gave everyone the hope of changing their destiny.
They taught everyone the breathing technique that could awaken superpowers.
They also promised to launch a very safe official version of gene medicine later, which would be put on the market.
However, it had to be taken at specific departments and registered.
superpower schools would also be established throughout the country later to teach everyone how to properly use their superpowers and cultivate the right values.
It really was a whole new world, as if from another era.
Yan Dongxu downloaded a breathing technique. He found that the person teaching everyone to breathe in the video was none other than his good friend Zhou Quan.
After quickly glancing through it, Yan Dongxu found that Zhou Quan's breathing technique was very superficial and was an extremely simplified version of breathing exercises.
If one had to rely on this to awaken, who knew how long it would take.
Yan Dongxu also understood clearly that this was perhaps the wisdom of the top leaders.
"Hmm? Is this the Superhuman Ranking Table released by the official authorities?" At the end of the announcement, Yan Dongxu saw a table.

The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family."

Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
uld barely embark on the path to immortality. Just as he was on the verge of death, his golden finger awakened.
