Chapter 164: Big Eater

"Superpowers?"

Chen Mu half-sincerely and half-fraudulently put on a curious look while quickly analyzing these people in his mind.

It seemed that they had been in this office from the beginning, and since then, they hadn't gone out, nor had anyone else come in, leading them to believe they were the only ones with abilities.

But from what he could tell, their abilities seemed quite ordinary, at least not possessing formidable combat power; otherwise, they wouldn't be staying here, waiting for someone to rescue them.

"Yeah, that's right!"

Yuyuan spoke with both pride and excitement, somewhat boastfully, "On the first day we hid here, we discovered we had superpowers; otherwise, we wouldn't have survived until today."

"Oh?"

This time, Chen Mu was genuinely curious and asked, "What superpowers do you have?"

Knowing that there was no one around, Yuyuan still subconsciously looked left and right, then lowered his voice and said, "I can eat a lot of things."

"Huh?" Chen Mu didn't react immediately.

He Ying interjected, "Are you saying you have a big appetite?"

"Yeah, yeah!" Yuyuan's chubby face vigorously nodded, causing his cheeks to jiggle up and down.

"Eating qualifies as a superpower?" He Ying chuckled.

Yuyuan seemed to have anticipated such a reaction from others. Instead of getting upset, he became even more pleased and grinned, "If it were just the ability to eat like a big eater, of course, that wouldn't be anything special. But, I can swallow a whole soybean. What do you think of that as a superpower?"

He Ying was about to laugh out loud but suddenly thought that in the current world, being able to eat a single soybean was indeed quite impressive.

Think about it, the ten or so people in Qiming could only finish one grain of rice in a day.

So, a single soybean should be equivalent to more than ten grains of rice.

Considering this, his appetite was indeed terrifying.

"You're saying that in your current state, you can eat a whole soybean? The kind used to make soy milk?" Chen Mu found it hard to believe.

"Exactly! That soybean is bigger than my head if you look at the size," Yuyuan proudly explained.

Chen Mu wasn't quite sure about the weight and density of soybeans, having never seen one in the post-apocalyptic world. But using his imagination, he understood the incredibility of the matter.

"Yeah, after we came in, we haven't had to drink water at all," Yuyuan also seemed puzzled and said, "At first, we were really anxious and planned to rest for a bit before going out to find water. But after a whole day, we didn't feel thirsty at all, and it has been like this until today."

He Ying pondered for a moment and asked Chen Mu, "What do you think?"

"It seems like some kind of superpower that can digest, store, and transfer energy from food, but I'm not sure of the specifics. If possible, it would be best to go back and let Tang Jing study it."

Chen Mu whispered a few words to He Ying and then turned back to Yuyuan, saying, "After the disaster, some of us gathered together and established a camp in a certain place. Life is still manageable at the moment. Your... superpower would be quite helpful to us. Would you be willing to join us?"

Strictly speaking, this was Chen Mu's first time actively recruiting someone, and he felt a bit nervous inside.

Yuyuan was overjoyed and almost jumped up, "Of course, I'm willing! If you hadn't come, we might have had to go out and find a way to survive. I don't know how long that soybean can last, but I can clearly feel the sense of fullness decreasing day by day. At this rate, it probably won't last much longer."

Chen Mu breathed a sigh of relief.

He Ying smiled and said, "Welcome to join our Qiming."

Yuyuan exclaimed in surprise, "Wow, your organization is called Qiming? What a great name! Oh no, now it's our organization!"

Somehow, Chen Mu suddenly thought of Sun Yuan.

Yuyuan suddenly felt a little uneasy and asked, "Can the other two of us join as well?"

He Ying was about to say, of course, but Chen Mu asked first, "Do they also have superpowers?"

"Yes, yes, yes," the two others nodded nervously, afraid of being rejected.

Even if they were just ordinary people, Chen Mu would still invite them to join the organization. Getting to know more people might be helpful on their way back.

Besides, Chen Mu didn't want people to think that their organization would accept just anyone, although in reality, that was indeed the case.
