Super Gene Ⅱ: Evolution

"How do you plan to establish the new core of the Special Service Department?" Lin Shen allowed Ouyang Yudu to initially stay at the place he had lived in before. Since he now resided on Celestial Star, that place was vacant, so he temporarily lent it to Ouyang Yudu.

"Recruitment," Ouyang Yudu said.

"Can it work? Don't end up recruiting nothing but spies from other houses." Lin Shen felt that Ouyang Yudu was a bit too optimistic.

"Whether they're spies or not doesn't matter, as long as they can get the job done," Ouyang Yudu optimistically replied. "Those recruited will first be sent to field operations for training. If they meet the performance standards, then we can consider promoting them to director."

"Would anyone be willing to come under those conditions?" Lin Shen thought that with such recruitment terms, hardly anyone would be willing to join.

"There will still be those spies who wish to come in and gather information," Ouyang Yudu laughed.

"That works?" Lin Shen was skeptical, wondering how effective the Special Service Department would be when it truly needed to exert effort if it was built this way.

"Trust me, I can handle it," Ouyang Yudu said sternly. "If we really get some good talent, there's potential for them to develop into key members."

Since Lin Shen had entrusted the Special Service Department to Ouyang Yudu, he could only choose to trust in his abilities. After all, the Celestial Master Institute was truly short on manpower now. Someone had to do the dirty and tiring work; they couldn't possibly handle everything personally.

"You'll also need to recruit an assistant," Ouyang Yudu added.

"Why would I need that thing?" Lin Shen felt he didn't need an assistant at all and wondered why Ouyang Yudu was bringing this up.

"Not for you, but for the Dean of the Celestial Master Institute," Ouyang Yudu explained.

"Is there a difference?" Lin Shen looked puzzledly at Ouyang Yudu.

"Yes, there is. As the head of an institute, you should have a certain presence when you're out handling affairs. This isn't useful for those above, but for those below, it's very effective," Ouyang Yudu laughed. "I'll take care of these matters as quickly as possible. Once I have some candidates, I'll let you come and choose."

"Alright, I'll leave it to you then," Lin Shen agreed, not worried that an assistant could extract any intelligence from him. He usually lived on Celestial Star, where an assistant simply couldn't enter.

After settling things with Ouyang Yudu, Lin Shen went straight back to Silent Residence.

There wasn't much to do at the Celestial Master Institute. He couldn't be bothered to deal with those old folks and decided to wait until new recruits arrived to make further plans.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Once back at Silent Residence, Lin Shen watched the ranking battles of the Nirvana Level and Feibian Level while he studied the Mudfish Catching Skill.

This skill was indeed unusual. Although it was easier to generate suction than with Twenty-Eight Fists, it wasn't significantly easier.

After practicing for a while with no apparent results, Lin Shen began to lose interest in practicing and laid down to watch the scroll of the sky.

The Ascension Level ranking battles were becoming more interesting. After heavy favorites like Di Esi, Kristin, and Lin Shen had withdrawn from the competition, even more powerful Ascenders had come to the forefront.

Some Ascenders displayed combat power that was no weaker than that shown by Kristin and Lin Shen.

Lin Shen couldn't help but admire how the universe was really full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. There were so many geniuses of various races, each with an endless stream of incredible abilities and skills.

In comparison, the number of real talents among humans that could make a mark was just a few; there was no comparison at all.

This was only considering those who had participated in the racial ranking battles. Who knew how many more formidable individuals were out there who hadn't taken part.

What Lin Shen hadn't expected was that Di Esi would surge to the top position on the Ascenders' ranking list.

Watching several of his battles, Di Esi's body against top-tier Ascenders was like a big meatball filled with elasticity—every attack on him would bounce back, making him a perfect damage-reflecting meatball.

Attacking him was essentially attacking oneself. Di Esi simply stood there and let others strike him, and as a result, it was always the others who ended up conceding.

Apart from reflecting attacks, the power of the Third Mountain himself was also incredibly terrifying. Once, an Ascender who called him a "meatball" was slapped into a pancake by him, his organs spurting out.

The Third Mountain firmly occupied the top spot, having faced several challenges with no one able to dethrone him.

His own endurance in battle wasn't bad either; he probably had some skill for restoring his vitality.

The Third Mountain holding the number one spot on the leaderboard further confirmed that Lin Shen had known how formidable he was before challenging him.

By declining the challenge, he was undoubtedly scared of Lin Shen. If Lin Shen hadn't withdrawn, the first place should rightfully belong to him.

Among the rankings for the Nirvana Level, the number one was also a member of the Phoenix Clan, with most of the top ranks occupied by those from powerful and prestigious families. Enjoy new adventures at empire

Lin Xiangdong's ranking hadn't moved much. There were those who challenged him, but none could withstand his Petal Torrent.

Not many challenged him; after all, his rank wasn't high, and it was unlikely for top Nirvana Beings to challenge someone of such a low rank.

The various abilities and secret techniques used by Nirvana Beings were far more interesting than those at the Ascension Level. Watching this ranking battle greatly broadened Lin Shen's knowledge.

Unfortunately, with his current understanding, he could not comprehend battles at the Immortal Level, otherwise, he would have learned even more.

Just as he was engrossed, he suddenly noticed a red crystal cord-like Death Powder crawling out and wrapping around his arm.

"Evolved already!" Lin Shen felt a surge of joy, but then he felt something was off, "Didn't Death Powder ascend to Nirvana? It's supposed to be that Nirvana Level pets, without the Power of Nirvana activated, can't enter a battle state."

Lin Shen hurriedly checked Death Powder's attributes to see what was going on. It had consumed the Reincarnation Ashes, yet it hadn't achieved Nirvana.

Mutated Death Shredder: Super-Base Nirvana Creature (evolvable).

Strength: 1620.

Speed: 1620.

Hardness: 1620.

Toughness: 1620.

Life Base: Super-Base Crushing Diary.

Nirvana Attributes: True Extreme Slaying Evil Death Light.

Base Change Talent: Super-Base Devouring, Super-Base Evolution, Super-Base Armor-Piercing Spike, Super-Base Instantaneous Speed, Super-Base Hundred Refinements, Super-Base Solidification, Super-Base Soul Harvesting, Super-Base Prison King's Eye.

Lin Shen was overjoyed by what he saw; Death Powder after Nirvana was of the top-level attribute and the Nirvana Attribute it obtained turned out to actually be the True Extreme Slaying Evil Divine Light.

To know the True Extreme Slaying Evil Divine Light was one of the strongest offensive Nirvana Attributes in the world. Having comprehended its essence, Lin Shen knew just how terrifying it was.

With Death Powder possessing this kind of Nirvana Attribute, it was equivalent to an unrivaled weapon of destruction. Equipped with it, who among his peers would dare to withstand his attacks?

This thing might even be fiercer than the Separation Method. The Separation Method only attracts particle separation, while True Extreme Slaying Evil Divine Light can actually penetrate particles—a terrifying existence.

"Eh... hold on... this isn't True Extreme Slaying Evil Divine Light..." After looking for a while, Lin Shen suddenly realized something was amiss; it was written as True Extreme Slaying Evil Death Light, not Divine Light.

"What's the difference between Death Light and Divine Light?" Lin Shen wondered, leaving Silent Residence to try it out outside and find out the difference.

What puzzled Lin Shen even more was that, even though Death Powder had clearly reached the Nirvana Level, he, an Ascender, was still able to activate it at will. He had never heard of such a thing before.
