Naturally, just like that, the might of [Release Electricity] had increased by ten times!

Lightning Ball!

This ability name did not appear in his status panel. Currently, it was only something that was created by Wei Xiao Bei by making use of two skills.

Wanting to make this ability appear in the status panel was something as impossible as having qi in the status panel.

After playing around with the lightning ball, he carelessly let it stay for more than three seconds, causing it to explode and blacken his entire face. Wei Xiao Bei finally decided to stop this dangerous and disaster inducing training.

Luckily it was Wei Xiao Bei playing with it. If it was a normal person, then if it was not to the crematorium, the explosion would have sent them to the hospital missing a few body parts.

Wei Xiao Bei placed his attention to the status panel and scanned it once. Then he focused on his awareness attribute.

Compared to his other attributes, his awareness was becoming one of his weak points.

In simpler terms, if he encountered even stronger enemies, then his [Response Search]’s radius might not be enough anymore.

With a four hundred and fifty-meter radius search, although he could notice the majority of the enemies within it, there was a chance that enemies were hidden outside of that radius and could close that distance in an instant.

For example, the Marines in StarCraft might not be precise in their shooting, but the gauss gun could shoot from more than a thousand meters away, while the bullet would maintain its velocity for three thousand meters.

In other words, a Marine could hide outside of Wei Xiao Bei’s range, and attack him without being spotted.

Moreover, the bullet fired from an electromagnetic coil could reach speeds up to Mach 5 and above.

This meant that with the pull of a trigger, the bullet would hit Wei Xiao Bei’s body in less than a second.

If there was no warning, then it would be impossible for Wei Xiao Bei to dodge this bullet.

This was something he noticed while watching the Zerglings’ and the Marines’ fight.

Although the gauss gun could shoot quite far, he was lucky that once it exceeded three hundred meters, the precision would quickly decline. After all, many factors were affecting its path such as wind and friction.

Following Wei Xiao Bei’s concentration on his perception sub-attribute, his evolution points quickly decreased by twos and his perception increased by 0.01 each time.

22.11, 22.12, 22.13......

After a few minutes, Wei Xiao Bei used a total of 3580 points, increasing his perception from 22.1 points to 40 points.

Following that, Wei Xiao Bei immediately felt that his perception of the world around him had reached an unprecedented accuracy. He could even perceive the spider crawling on the web outside in the corridor. He could even clearly hear the sound as the thread was being stretched.

Twenty-five meters away Huang Kun was using his shoulders to strike a tree.

Forty-five meters away, there was a youth who was currently lying on top of his car and taking selfies.

......

Naturally, this sharper perception had its inconveniences. Even if Wei Xiao Bei was unwilling to perceive some things, he would still perceive them.

At this moment, Andre was currently hugging his wife and doing things inappropriate for children to know of.

On the other hand, Zhu Xin Yi was currently taking a bath while humming a tune that mixed with the sound of water.

Afterward, Wei Xiao Bei tried to forcefully suppress his perception of the outside world.

In truth, Wei Xiao Bei had already encountered not being able to suppress his perception when he raised it to 20 points.

However, as time passed, his body had adapted to it and he was able to block out sounds and other things that he should not normally perceive.

Thus, controlling the accuracy of his perception was something easy for him to do.

Next, he focused on his status panel. After reaching 40 points in perception, his [Response Search] had changed into [Response Sonar].

Response Sonar: Allows the user to comprehensively perform a response search in a five hundred-meter radius. The user can also perform a three thousand-meter radius fan-shaped response search.

From this description, the new ability had covered the radius of the original [Response Search], it had even increased the limits to five hundred meters. Moreover, it added a fan-shaped search in a three thousand-meter radius.

Afterward, Wei Xiao Bei tested out his new ability.

After sensing the sound and images of the movement of hundreds of people, he concluded.

The five hundred-meter radius search had similar effects to [Response Search]. On the other hand, the other effect was similar to a pulse-radar. It would form an invisible arc and search in a fan that was at most ten degrees.

Wei Xiao Bei could make it fan out in a direction and tell him everything that happened at the ten-degree angle. He could also adjust the speed and try to find out the situation in all three hundred and sixty degrees.

In simpler terms, the faster the movement of the fan, the more mental strength was consumed. The slower it was the less was consumed.

Even if Wei Xiao Bei was quite strong now, he could at most do a thirty-degree angle every second, but if he turned more than ten times, then his mental strength would be cleaned up.

On the other hand, the most economic speed was ten degrees every second. With the support of various mental strength recovering foods, he could roughly do an entire day.

However, this had a flaw, if he needed to make one full turn, then he would spend thirty-six seconds to do so.

In other words, during the turning process, areas would not be covered and have changes that occur to them that he would not be able to perceive due to the time difference.

If his enemy was very fast and could reach a speed of eighty-three meters a second, then they could charge at him before he could sense them.

It did not need to be too fast, as the speed of a helicopter was enough.

Naturally, this matter was only a small flaw.

Being able to increase the search radius to three hundred meters was already a substantial increase.

Wei Xiao Bei noticed that this was not the limit. If he was willing to decrease the width of the fan, then his search radius would also increase.

Naturally, doing so would increase the time difference between searches.

However, if it was used against structures or slow enemies, then the time difference was negligible.

On the other hand, the range of his search could not reach ten thousand meters.

After using the ability to search, then it would also slowly level up. However, the process would be a lot slower compared to the speed of [Electricity Control] and [Electromagnetic Field].

Now that his perception was at 40 points, he could not leave the ever-important intuition behind.

Concentrate! Increase intuition!

Much like his perception, his evolution points decreased for every 0.01 increase in intuition.

Compared to his perception, the speed at which intuition increased was a lot slower.

From 22.1 points to 40 points, more than twenty minutes had passed. Wei Xiao Bei felt tired from the process.

It also used up 3580 points and allowed him to gain a new ability.

Demons and Gods at Work: Because the user has reached a certain level, whenever the user encounters danger or is faced with an important choice, the user would be able to see through the fog of fate like supernatural beings and gain knowledge as to where the danger would come from, allowing the user to pick the best choice. This ability’s strength depends on how high the user’s intuition is.

......

The new ability [Demons and Gods at Work] appeared similar to [Early Warning], but from the description, it appeared that it had some relationship to reading one’s fate.

Because of this, Wei Xiao Bei felt that this ability was much more special compared to other abilities.

However, he had no way of testing this ability.

After all, matters that could be called dangerous for him were truly dangerous things. Moreover, he could not just create danger for himself to try it out.

After taking a look at it, Wei Xiao Bei temporarily dropped this question.

After using up a lot of evolution points, he was now left with 8894.

After thinking about it, Wei Xiao Bei placed his attention on [Release Electricity]’s voltage limit.

Because it required 3 points to increase one volt, Wei Xiao Bei had used 1500 evolution points, to increase it to two thousand five hundred volts.

It had been a while since he had increased this ability.

After reaching two thousand five hundred volts, Wei Xiao Bei could now release ten thousand volts with the help of his [Electricity Control].

After thinking a bit, Wei Xiao Bei created an electric arc that moved between his left hand’s index finger and middle finger. Then he tried to move his left hand closer to the metal frame of the bed.

Crackle!

The sound of electricity being transmitted sounded and immediately disappeared in the bed frame.

The distance between this happening was thirty centimeters.

Wei Xiao Bei nodded his head as it went as he expected.

After increasing to ten thousand volts, the electric current that he released had now improved in the aspect of bridging a path in mid-air.

Accordingly, a thousand volts could penetrate the air by one centimeter. This meant that ten thousand volts should be able to penetrate the air by around ten centimeters.

However, in Wei Xiao Bei’s hand, even if the room was not that humid, the discharge had reached thirty centimeters.

If it was in a more humid place, this electrical discharge should be able to reach more than a meter.

At this time, Wei Xiao Bei had become a bit excited and wanted to put more evolution points into [Release Electricity], but after thinking about it, he suppressed the urge to do so.
