217: Chapter 217 Xiao Shuihan

Xiao Shuihan, who had reached the level of a Level 2 Lifeform, finally appeared at the Las Ve Grand Hotel.

As a Level 2 Lifeform, not only could he live up to five hundred years, but the energy he could instantly release had also reached the level of an atomic bomb.

Back then, the "Fat Man" dropped on Nagasaki was equivalent to 20,000 tons of TNT high explosives.

Xiao Shuihan had once undergone a vitality test; he could release a maximum equivalent of 40,000 tons of TNT, which was roughly two atomic bombs.

Because of this, he almost never took action.

Once he did, it would be world-shattering.

Of course.

Not all Level 2 Lifeforms were Energy-types like him.

There were also Defense-type Level 2 Lifeforms!

This type of Level 2 Lifeform couldn't release energy as terrifying as Xiao Shuihan's, but their body density was extremely high; an ordinary atomic bomb exploding beside them would only cause minor burns...

Of course.

There aren't many Level 2 Lifeforms on Earth right now, and other types have yet to be discovered.

"Teacher Xiao, you've finally arrived!"

Seeing Xiao Shuihan in his training suit at the hotel entrance, Commander Jiang Qiuzhi immediately went to greet him.

Ever since she entered the Dragon God Academy, Teacher Xiao had given her a lot of guidance; although it wasn't of much use, he was one of the most powerful life forms on the planet, so she still respected him.

Xue Yao also stepped forward and said politely, "Elder Xiao, I'm troubling you this time."

It had been a long time since Jiang Chen disappeared on the Eskimo Ice Sheet.

The energy detected inside was extremely terrifying, and ordinary people didn't dare enter at all.

Xue Yao was naturally grateful that Xiao Shuihan was willing to try and go in to find Jiang Chen.

After all, other Level 2 Lifeforms had all declined with a shake of their heads upon hearing about the energy levels detected inside.

Although Jiang Chen had made many contributions and Qin Xueyao was a carrier commander, they were still worried about being severely injured; some even suggested that Xue Yao should hurry and apply for martyr status.

But Xue Yao didn't apply; she always believed that Jiang Chen must still be there.

It was just that she couldn't get inside.

"Rest assured, Commander Qin. I've been at the Level 2 Lifeform stage for a while now and have stabilized. I also happen to want to see if the energy deep within the Eskimo Ice Sheet is truly as terrifying as the legends say!"

Although Xiao Shuihan was over a hundred and fifty years old, he had a youthful face and white hair, looking quite energetic.

He had long since stepped down from his important positions at the Dragon God Academy and was now just an ordinary teacher at the Qi Academy, but his heart still yearned to explore higher levels of life!

According to his predictions, if Jiang Chen hadn't held out, then... he hadn't held out.

If he did hold out, given the immense energy inside, Jiang Chen would definitely be a powerful life form far surpassing himself.

Otherwise.

It would be impossible for him to survive.

This made Xiao Shuihan somewhat expectant.

What would a life form far surpassing his own look like?

"Alright, it's about time. I'll have the Black Eagle take us there."

With a sharp cry, the Black Eagle soared through the sky; its back was wide enough to accommodate over a hundred people.

Xue Yao, Commander Jiang Qiuzhi, Jiang Haipeng, and Xiao Shuihan stepped up and stood on the Black Eagle's back high above the hotel.

The Black Eagle was quite intuitive; sensing everyone was on board, it flapped its wings and swept toward the Eskimo Ice Sheet.

Although the wind howled at high altitude, none of them were ordinary people, so they stood firmly.

"Commander Qin, both of your children are very outstanding."

"In the future lifeform rankings, your family will have at least three people on it."

Xiao Shuihan couldn't help but praise.

He was aware of Commander Jiang Qiuzhi's progress.

Before entering the Dragon God Academy, she had already become an A-sequence life form, and in less than two years, she became an S-sequence.

It was estimated that in the future, she could at least become a peak Level 1 Life Form; with enough energy, she might even become a Level 2 Lifeform.

Such a young Level 2 Lifeform would definitely have a brighter future than an old man like him.

As for Jiang Haipeng...

He was currently a peak Level 1 Life Form, at the same level as Qin Xueyao, and was now the commander of the Ace Avian Squadron; he also had a ranking on the lifeform rankings where experts were as common as clouds.

It could be said that this family's vitality was truly strong.

"Indeed, but I still hope our family can have at least four on the list."

Xue Yao gazed at the ice sheet, which was almost entirely covered by a thunderous snowstorm, and murmured.

Her two children's vitality was so strong precisely because their father was amazing!

She had to find him and have him contribute a bit more to Earth's vitality.

"Haha!"

Xiao Shuihan laughed and then continued, "I heard that Pangu Base has almost finished building the core modules of the Luan Bird; once it's assembled, tested, and test-flown, it can be officially put into use... As the commander of the Sister Li, you have great potential to become the Commander-in-Chief of the Luan Bird."

"I quite like the Sister Li. As for the Luan Bird, I think my children are quite suitable for it, so I plan to focus on training them."

Xue Yao replied.

In terms of strength, Jiang Haipeng was no longer weaker than her.

She used to think about piloting the Luan Bird to protect her husband's small fishing boat.

But now that Jiang Chen had been missing for nearly twenty years, she naturally lost much of her interest in the Luan Bird.

"That's also good. This generation of children is truly living in the best of times."

"It should be said that they've encountered an unprecedented opportunity for humanity."

"Training them to be the vanguard of humanity's sea of stars isn't a bad idea."

Xiao Shuihan nodded; in terms of pure strength, he was naturally the most suitable for the Luan Bird.

However, he lacked the vigor and passion of the youth.

Thus, he had never considered such things, focusing only on training promising young people.

But what he didn't expect was that Qin Xueyao also didn't want to compete for the Luan Bird.

They chatted.

Soon, they arrived at the outermost edge of the Eskimo Ice Sheet.

But!

Even at the very edge, the sky here was filled with constant lightning, rain, and snowstorms all mixed together.

They could only dimly see a massive pillar of lightning in the deepest part, as if it had pierced through the Arctic atmosphere.

"Commander Qin, wait here for a moment. I'll go in and test the waters."

Xiao Shuihan didn't hesitate and stepped down from the high altitude on the spot.

He landed steadily on the ice sheet.

Under the blowing of the cold storm, his training suit clung to his body.

But with each step leaving a deep footprint, he vanished into the thunderous snowstorm in the blink of an eye.

"Let's guess how long this old man can last."

Jiang Haipeng spoke and started timing: 1 second, 2 seconds, 3 seconds...

In fact, both Xue Yao and Jiang Haipeng had tried to enter, but neither lasted ten minutes before coming out.

Commander Jiang Qiuzhi narrowed her eyes and said, "I think at least half an hour."

After all, he was a Level 2 Lifeform; if he couldn't even last three times as long, it would only mean... Dad really has turned to ash.

Half an hour passed; in their anxious anticipation, every second felt like a year.
