Chapter 79: The Brain is Active, Muscles are Thinking

Pain! Intense pain!

The skull feels like it's about to be smashed, the brain matter squeezed out!

When Fang Can's iron fist slammed into Qu Hua's forehead, he felt as if he'd been hit by a locomotive.

"Boom!"

With the air's shockwave, the air rippled outward like waves on a water surface.

Severely injured, Qu Hua's consciousness grew dim, nearly slipping into death.

But before losing consciousness, his eyes witnessed a terrifying scene.

In his line of sight, the figure of Fang Can throwing a punch before him began to split; in the next moment, he appeared beside another teammate as if teleporting.

'Two Fang Cans... three Fang Cans...'

The other two Fang Cans threw punches simultaneously in an instant, still with heavy, powerful fists.

Amidst the terrifying roar of power, the three who had intended to strike together were sent flying backward at once, then crashed into the stone wall at the stadium's edge, motionless.

After delivering that strike, the other two Fang Cans vanished like bubbles, leaving only one Fang Can's figure on the scene.

'How is this possible...' Far away, Li Yuqi could hardly believe it, surprised both by her teammates' swift defeat and shocked by Fang Can's ability to manifest three forms from one person.

This kind of duplication ability has never been portrayed in movies; how did Fang Can do it?

'It's speed.' The three sent flying, their minds groggy, made this judgment.

Without studying math, physics, or chemistry, magic is everywhere in life.

The so-called duplication was caused by Fang Can moving too fast.

Because he threw punches from three different positions almost simultaneously, the light deceived the eyes, creating an illusion like duplication.

Amidst pitch darkness, Fang Can stopped attacking and remained motionless where he stood.

'Still too reckless.' Fang Can sighed inwardly.

With gravity added, his punches were hard to control in force; plus, with his five senses stripped, he didn't even know who he hit—his body judged and exerted force on its own.

Just fight, and they blindfold the eyes too; is this playing too dangerously? Careful not to cause a death.

'So... please, by all means, don't let me kill you.' Fang Can earnestly pleaded in his heart.

Sure enough, the next moment Fang Can's vision returned, seeing the red rubber track revealing asphalt after exploding in place, and the three superpowered individuals embedded in the stone blocks far away.

With his five senses restored, he could feel the calm heartbeats on the opposite side, easing Fang Can slightly; at least no one died, right?

Fearing Fang Can would continue attacking, the group released their superpowers and hurried to check on their teammates.

Seeing their teammates covered in bruises and all unconscious, they breathed a sigh of relief; at least they weren't torn apart piece by piece.

"Sorry, after the five senses were blocked, I couldn't control my force well; my strikes were a bit too rough."

Seeing Fang Can approach, the group's bodies jerked reflexively, then relaxed upon realizing this guy before them wasn't an enemy.

"It's fine, it's fine; they're just unconscious, they'll recover after resting a while." Li Yuqi waved her hands hurriedly, then asked curiously: "How much force did you use just now?"

"About seventy percent, I'd say." Fang Can smiled, adding inwardly: 'Mm, seventy percent in normal state.'

"By the way, Qu Hua mentioned earlier that we need to arrange some basic self-defense force for the citizens." Liu Cheng, standing nearby, said.

"So we want certain city command authority to conduct defenses; if managed well, we can greatly reduce civilian casualties during the Carnival Day."

"That's up to you." Fang Can nodded in agreement; even if these few didn't mention it, he would have instructed the mayor to do so next.

Lying on the cold ground, Qu Hua's consciousness slowly returned; he raised his eyes and saw his teammates surrounding him.

"You're awake." Li Yuqi said calmly beside him.

"Where's Fang Can?" Qu Hua tried to rise from the ground, but with a slight movement, he felt a sharp pain in his cervical spine.

"Of course he left long ago; I didn't expect such a huge gap. I thought we could win." Li Yuqi said disappointedly; her plan to absorb energy had almost been implemented.

"That punch nearly made my life flash before my eyes; how could we win?" Qu Hua said speechlessly, having no idea Fang Can was such a monster.

"But this is good news too; at least the stronger Fang Can is, the greater our side's power, since we're on the same camp."

"By the way, did you mention the city command authority matter?" Qu Hua asked.

"Fang Can has no objections; from now on, the entire city's armed planning will be handled by us." Liu Cheng, standing nearby, said.

"That's best; anyway, the raw materials are available; let's set up a complete firearms production line over the next ten-plus days."

During this period, Fang Can maintained his persona, staying indoors and never coming out.

But as time passed, Fang Can not only turned his muscles into a brain, but his brain also completely transformed into the nature of muscle.

In the dim room, Fang Can sat cross-legged on the ground, his eyes resolute as if doing something extremely serious.

In fact, that was exactly the case; with his brain turning muscular, Fang Can was trying to think with his muscles and use his brain matter to exert force for actions.

Because Fang Can could only activate one trait at a time, when his brain turned muscular, he couldn't think; he had to let the brain-turned-muscle replace thought.

At this moment, Fang Can's brain matter was like muscle atrophied from years of inactivity, difficult to control.

'Move! My brain! I order you to move!' Fang Can's entire body's muscles roared silently.

The next moment, under the muscles' control, Fang Can's brain moved bit by bit, tensed, and condensed into a lump.

This was the brain exercising the trait of muscle, applying force bit by bit.

But it didn't last long; Fang Can leaned backward as if drained of all strength, with throbbing pains in his mind, as if it were about to split open.

Seeing Fang Can about to fall, Jiang Ningan beside him reached out to support him, then asked with concern: "Did it succeed?"

"It's a bit difficult; the brain has never exercised before; this function isn't in the genes. Even now with muscle functions, we must try step by step, like rehabilitation exercises after a patient recovers."

Fang Can said calmly, enduring the tearing pain.

Indeed, making the brain grow legs and run on its own was still somewhat difficult.

"Next, I need to rest a bit and try other projects, such as implanting the hardness of the skull, the self-filtering of the kidneys, the blood-pumping function of the heart, and so on, throughout the entire body."

Fang Can stated his viewpoint calmly.

But on the other side, as time passed, criminals from all over the country had begun to mobilize.

In a certain prison, batches of criminals were loaded onto trucks and transported like cargo.

And in the classroom, government officials calmly read out the list for the Carnival Day.

At this moment, only three days remained until Carnival Day!

Chapter 77 was accidentally deleted; it took a long time to recover it, I was terrified!
