Life in North America, you call this an autopsy officer?!-Chapter 518 - 285: Gaining the Ability to Fly, A Dire Situation

Chapter 518: Chapter 285: Gaining the Ability to Fly, A Dire Situation

A chill that raised the hairs on his skin surged into his heart.

Brian looked up in the direction of the east, sniffing out the scent of danger.

This must be an FBI underground base mobilizing a combat team.

"They really didn’t expect their real base to be so far from here; these guys couldn’t have dug out the entire underground, could they..."

Brian pondered.

That would be a massive undertaking, especially with this kind of special terrain.

He guessed they must have some kind of advanced technology.

Otherwise, to rely solely on manpower, the cost would be too high, not cost-effective.

The FBI itself wasn’t wealthy.

Meanwhile, two warm streams washed through Brian’s body.

This was the indication of a completed obsession.

"Interesting, masquerading as Yagyuu Kojirou, the dead believe that I am him, causing them to mistakenly think that Yagyuu Kojirou killed them right before their death, so their final obsession also turns into killing Yagyuu Kojirou..."

Brian felt elated.

He often encountered obsessions seeking revenge on him, but he had never thought about it from this angle.

Of course, he wasn’t able to imitate as convincingly before, and if the dead person’s obsession was merely revenge, it probably would still lock onto Brian himself as the target, not the person he was disguised as.

This time was purely a coincidence.

Previously, to fulfill the obsession of a Japanese ninja, he had to torment Kojirou, which coincidentally met the requirements of these two new obsessions, meaning he freeloaded two obsession gifts.

Freeloading was his favorite thing.

Thrilling!

Before the enemy arrived, Brian quickly considered the gifts he would choose.

Now a little bit of Gift Energy was no big deal to him.

Using Death Perception, he could farm the obsessions of ordinary people’s deaths, ensuring a monthly income of a hundred or two, plus the leftovers from before, he now had over three hundred units of Gift Energy stored up, quite rich.

So he was more concerned about picking the right talents.

Hedgehog Woman had two talents, one was ominvorosity, and one was Bone Spur.

Brian thought for a moment.

Descriptions of the two talents appeared in his mind.

Omnivorous: Your dietary range greatly expands, you can digest and utilize nearly all plant and animal bodies, your digestive power significantly increases, you can digest or store almost all biological toxins.

Bone Spur: Your keratin synthesis efficiency greatly increases, you can control the formation of bone spikes in your skin and flesh.

After reading Hedgehog Woman’s two talent introductions, Brian furrows his brows slightly.

The greatest threat posed by Hedgehog Woman was actually her ability to shoot bone spikes at ultrasonic speed.

These things were Silent when they flew out, and only when they approached could you hear the screeching sound of the sonic boom, which the average person couldn’t react to at all.

But from the talent introduction, it seemed that the method she used to control the spikes wasn’t her own ability, but rather some other modified technology; otherwise, it would also appear on the list of talent gifts.

In that case...

Her individual Bone Spur talent was worthless.

He didn’t need omnivorousness either.

In an emergency, relying on his powerful digestive power, Brian could achieve a similar effect to the omnivorous talent.

Besides, he had other options like Blood Fruit and Gift Energy.

Brian directly chose Gift One, 90 units of Gift Energy.

By now, his Gift Energy reserves had recovered to four hundred units, enough for him to play with his Fake Undying Body a few times.

Feeling the rich warmth disappear deep within his body, Brian turned his attention to Bat Man’s gifts.

Bat Man also had two gifted talents.

One was ultrasonic perception, and the other was Wing Transformation.

Ultrasonic perception, Brian already had, even broader in range and more precise than the other’s, and it also came with sonic attack capability, so he dismissively skipped over it without a second look.

Wing Transformation was a flight-related talent.

Brian was quite fond of this one.

He didn’t have many weaknesses now, apart from flight...

And looking at Bat Man’s form, aside from an ugly face, the wings alone were quite cool, giving off a dark and eerily handsome vibe, like a vampire in his transformation state from a fantasy movie, or say, the Devil’s little wings.

Thinking this, Brian’s anticipation grew as he focused on the ’Wing Transformation’ talent.

Wing Transformation (I): Your back structure mutates, your perception of air currents sharply increases, and your Bone Wings have a unique construction, capable of expelling air for propulsion, granting you the abilities to glide and fly.

Wing Transformation (II): Your back’s genetics have mutated, allowing you to consume energy to quickly grow a special Bone Wing structure, your perception of air currents sharply increases, and your Bone Wings have a unique construction, capable of expelling air for propulsion, granting you the abilities to glide and fly.

Note one: During the growth process of Bone Wings, there is a hardening phase; during this phase, the Bone Wings are very fragile.

Note two: Once the Bone Wings are hardened, they cannot be retracted, but they can be broken off.

Note three: The composition of the Bone Wings stem from the proliferation and Mutation of your cells, they can be continuously repaired and regenerate the corresponding nerve linkage channels, and you can freely adjust the sensitivity of nerve perception. The higher the sensitivity, the more easily you can control the Bone Wings.

Surprisingly, this Bone Wing talent had two options.

At first, he had been concerned it was a talent that changed one’s physical appearance.

If that were the case, he would have to give it up.

Otherwise, walking around with two large wings on his back would make it difficult to move normally in human society, which he wouldn’t like.

In human society, being an outsider requires courage.
