Sky-cracking Rider

Chen Fei had never imagined, that as an utterly ordinary person, he would develop "pica" in his lifetime.

Well, let's just call it "pica," since it involves eating all sorts of things, particularly things that shouldn't be eaten.

After all, he wasn't the only one in the world with "pica." Not to mention eating metals, there were others who ate glass, ceramics, and even soil and gnawed on rocks—various nonsensical behaviors, which was why they were collectively termed as "pica."

In the past, he had been careful and cautious, never daring to be greedy.

But now, being urged by the female Metallic Dragon Yilan, he had thrown caution to the wind and let himself go with the flow.

To hell with it, eat first and worry later.

The taste of metal was surprisingly not bad, and it wasn't as hard as expected—he even prepared himself for the possibility that despite the pain, he would not be able to bite through.

Yet, he easily bit off a large chunk and, marveling at his excellent teeth, Chen Fei thought that the mysterious "My System" would open up a new world for him.

He never expected that after two novice tasks, another task would suddenly pop up.

The alloy ingot in his hand suddenly lost its appeal.

Mr/Miss System, what are you trying to pull?!

Killing a good person?

I am a good person, should I just commit suicide?!

Damn it!

Detecting Chen Fei's odd behavior, the blissfully munching female Metallic Dragon Yilan looked over in confusion and said, "Why have you stopped eating? Are you full?"

"Ah..." Chen Fei was momentarily stunned, then regained his composure and nodded vigorously, saying, "Yes, I'm full!"

He had indeed lost his appetite because of the sudden system task.

Swoosh!~

The half-piece of alloy ingot that fell to the ground was swiftly coiled up by a flexible Dragon's Tail; the next second, it landed in Yilan's massive mouth with fangs, munching and mumbling, "Can't waste food!"

Clang, clang, clang... it wasn't Chen Fei's system making a racket, but Xiao Jiu, the mischievous little creature, pecking around.

Having seen its dad enjoying something tasty, it too wanted a taste.

The Pure Light Sparrow, even as a Magical Beast in bird form, who only feasted on chick feed pellets and live mealworms, lacked the robust teeth of Chen Fei and Yilan and couldn't peck through the metal—apart from producing a series of crisp, pleasant sounds, it made not a single mark.

"Chen Fei, uh! Can't finish it, can I take it away? Uh!~"

The female Metallic Dragon, belching contentedly, emitted satisfied groans. After two days of feasting on large chunks, it finally reached a point where it couldn't nibble anymore.

ヾ(≧▽≦*)o Total satisfaction!

At least the wreckage of seven battle aircraft, after being completely disassembled, was packed into cardboard boxes and neatly arranged at the recycling station.

A rotten boat still has three pounds of nails, let alone a battle aircraft.

Even as wrecks, the metallic materials could account for at least three-quarters of their weight, with each aircraft yielding at least two tons of metal.

Aside from a portion that needed to be thrown into the reaction vessel for biodegradation, the rest were stewed by Chen Fei in the smelting furnace.

Rows of steaming fresh alloy ingots came out of the furnace, adding up to more than ten tons. Yilan, after all, just a thirty-year-old young dragon, was starting to feel overstuffed.

"If you can carry them away, you're free to take these rough ingots."

Chen Fei didn't mind at all that Yilan was both eating and taking.

The alloy ingots didn't have a wide range of applications and could only be used in low-demand situations; they weren't worth much and even the cost of transporting them could not be justified.

Recycled products weren't accounted for, so whether they were all eaten or taken away, nobody cared about their whereabouts. After some time, the recycling station at the Aircrew Base would accumulate new ingots. The reason for using reaction vessels and smelting furnaces was simply for environmental and waste management purposes, to prevent pollution and save space.

The investigation by Clodia, the Psychic Illusion Dragon, soon reached Chen Fei, who hung around the female Metallic Dragon Yilan, and he was moved to the end of the list. The mission of the foreign delegation from Sky Dragon City was about to be completed.

Compared with the psychological counselors hastily sent by the Apocalypse Defense Group to 911 Aircrew Base for preliminary screening, the Illusion Dragon's methods were clearly much more sophisticated.

Even the most resilient hardliners crumble before the powerful psychic Illusion Dragon, utterly lacking any resistance.

Whether they speak out or confess, those things are unimportant, even unnecessary.

The Illusion Dragon's targeted memory search is all-encompassing, including emotional fluctuations, allowing the truth to reemerge intact within the innate abilities of the Psychic Dragon.

Once memories form, they are difficult to alter, and even self-hypnosis or self-deception cannot fool the keen insight of the Psychic Dragon.

When the Extraterrestrial Races invaded Cangqiong Star, the Psychic Illusion Dragon, as a member of the Dragon Clan, although not the main fighting force in the forefront of the battlefield, extracted crucial intelligence from these Aliens and could even accurately identify deeply hidden extraterrestrial Parasites.

Illusion Dragon Clodia looked down at the young man before her and said, "Human, you remind me of Yilan."

Its psychic power was nullified, meaning it was unable to read Chen Fei's memory.

"Has there been some kind of accident?"

The female executive manager had been closely monitoring the whole process and had not missed a single person.

"I cannot sense his psychic power,"

the Psychic Illusion Dragon shook its head.

Despite Chen Fei standing right in front of it, just like the female Metallic Dragon Yilan, there were absolutely no psychic power fluctuations.

The only source of psychic power fluctuations came from the Little Bird hopping on the other's shoulder.

"Jiu!~"

The Magical Beast Pure Light Sparrow, not even reaching the First Rank of Human Order, had nothing noteworthy about it.

Manager Hanna Gagel slightly frowned, pondered for a moment, and speculated, "Perhaps it's due to the Supernatural Ability Suppressant."

Supernatural powers include the Wind Series, Fire System, Metallic, etc., and naturally include the Psychic Series. The categorization of supernatural power types on Blue Star is basically consistent with that on Cangqiong Star: ten systems of Magic (excluding Metallic), ten systems of Battle Qi (excluding Metallic), and eleven systems of Special Abilities.

The Supernatural Ability Suppressants on Blue Star are broad-spectrum functional suppressants capable of effectively suppressing all supernatural powers, and might even suppress psychic power fluctuations, making the Psychic Dragon from Sky Dragon City unable to sense psychic power and therefore unable to use it as a bridge to search Chen Fei's memory.

Manager Hanna summoned an underling, whispered a few words, and the underling hurried away, soon returning with an object in hand.

That object resembled a frame-like helmet with a small LCD screen attached.

After receiving it, Hanna Gagel placed it directly onto Chen Fei's head.

Beep!~

The frame-like helmet emitted an electronic sound.

"Psychic power 2.1 degrees, Chen Fei, it seems you were at 0.9 degrees before you joined the company."

Hanna Gagel, as the executive manager of the 911 Aircrew Base, was not unprepared, having all of the personal information of each employee memorized.

"Ah! Yes!"

Chen Fei nodded, recognizing the device on his head.

The Psychic Power Strength Detector, which is commonly used for physical examinations, everyone had it placed on their head during university check-ups every year, and in just two seconds, it could determine the intensity index of the psychic power fluctuations, and more advanced ones could even differentiate wave patterns.

Each person's psychic power wave pattern is unique, with the probability of similarity far lower than that of fingerprints. In some special fields, psychic wave pattern characteristics are even used as identification keys, ensuring high security.

"It must be your awakening of a Special Ability that has increased your psychic power strength,"

Hanna Gagel said as she removed the Psychic Power Strength Detector from Chen Fei and handed it back to her subordinate.

The psychic power strength of ordinary people is between 0.6 to 1.5 degrees, related to willpower, focus, and the amplitude of psychic wave patterns—supernatural power users generally have higher psychic power strength than ordinary people.

Following Chen Fei's awakening of Metal Elemental Psychic Power, his psychic strength increased from 0.9 to 2.1, which is completely normal.

Psychic Illusion Dragon Clodia expressed her confusion, "What's going on here?"

She clearly couldn't sense anything, yet the device detected it instantly.
