After he saw them, he did not speak much. Rather, he asked, "Who is going first?"
Without hesitation, Denali took a step forward. It was clear that she wanted to take the test first. It was not that she did not want another person to do it, but she knew that it was going to be a little troublesome.
After all, both Jack and Celine were superhumans. So, if they were tested first, it was definitely going to cause a commotion inside here. The number of superhumans present inside this stronghold could be easily counted in one hand.
That implied that, with every appearance of a superhuman, it was definitely going to attract a lot of attention. Currently, although the Panthers organization was the one that was holding a high position, it only possessed a single superhuman.
So, the appearance of another superhuman was definitely going to make everything change. So, it depended on which organization that superhuman had come from. But, what if that's superhuman was not affiliated to any organization?
Perhaps the other organizations might think that this new superhuman was going to try and create his own organization. And for that reason, it was going to be another complicated task, with the addition of another power that was going to try and fight for supremacy of the entire Stronghold.
That was just the appearance of a single superhuman. But, what kind of impact was that appearance of two superhumans going to mean? Additionally, the two of them were actually together, and not just any kind of cooperation, rather, the two of them were engaged, soon to be couples.
When Denali took a step forward, nobody had any objection about that. Anyway, to the young man and the young lady that were present, it was not as if there was going to be any difference with who was going to start the test.
Denali went ahead and lied down on the machine. Immediately after that, the young man placed something on top of her head. Then, he pressed a series of buttons on the machine, before Denali was taken into the machine.
A bright red scanned her body several times, before finally stopping. At the same time, everyone's gaze was focused on a screen next to the machine that was going to display the current power level of Denali.
Of course, neither the young man nor the young lady cared much about the power level that Denali possessed. Since this group was coming over to register right now, that implied that they were not that strong. Additionally, all of them were quite young, it seemed that they were in their early twenties.
Tut…tut…tut…!
Suddenly, a sound came from the machine. At the same time, the display screen showed a series of stars. It began at a single star, then it progressed to two, three, four… And the number kept on rising.
When the two young people that were in charge of this area saw this, their eyes suddenly squinted. They could not believe that Denali was actually this strong.
The higher the number of stars appeared on the screen, the wider their eyes widened. Just how strong was this lady? Additionally, how comes she was this strong, and she was only registering as a member of the stronghold domain now? That did not make any sense to them.
Finally, the series of stars finally stopped at the 9th star. Just looking at the nine stars that were shining brightly on the screen made the pupils of the two tremble. That was especially so for the lady who had led them here. After all, it was not long ago that she had been trying to intermediate them with her sixth-star ordinary human aura.
From the looks of it, she was just a clown in front of this group. This lady alone was capable of dealing with her several times over. And, the lady had already seen it, it seemed that Denali had respect for the two youngsters. So, just how strong were they? Or, did they belong to a certain influential background?
The mind of the young lady became a little chaotic. Even the young man who had been quite indifferent all this while was stunned, and he did not react for a moment.
It was only after he was reminded by Samantha that he went ahead and pressed another series of buttons with his hands shaking a little. He was a little intimidated by this group, considering that, they were quite strong.
He himself was just at the seventh star of the ordinary human. But, he was not a person who liked fighting. He was an introvert, and had it not been that he had been forced to train, then, he would have been enjoying himself while doing some research here and there.
For that reason, he did not possess that much of combat capabilities despite his high level of strength.
After Denali was taken out from the machine, she stood up and went and stood behind Jack and Celine. That clearly showcased that she was at a lower level as compared to the two.
Jack was just about to take a step forward when he was prevented by Celine. Although she was a superhuman, she was at the first stage. Jack on the other hand was at the second stage. So, she believed that if Jack took the test now, he was definitely going to cause a huge commotion as compared to her.
Jack allowed for Celine to go ahead and take the test. And just like Denali had done, she laid on the machine, before the guy pressed a series of buttons. The machine was activated and Celine was taken inside.
A bright red light began scanning her body for a few seconds before finally dimming down. At the same time, beeping sounds came from the machine as the display screen began displaying a series of stars.
Just like how it had been for Denali, it began at the first star, before continuing to the 10th star. And the moment that it arrived here, the expressions of the two that were observing all of this had already shifted.
Their faces had already paled, and what I was clear in their eyes. After all, although these territory was a branch from the big strongholds, it actually did not possess even a single superhuman. The strongest person that was present inside here was at the 10th star.
The appearance of a person who had noted been affiliated with any organization, and that person's strength was at the 10th star of the ordinary human was something that frightened them. After all, they did not know how it was possible for this person to be able to reach this level without acquiring the resources that the majority of the organizations possessed.
Currently, they were already having some suspicions about this group. Could it be a group of spies that have been sent over? After all, why was it that they wanted to skip the test? This was the reason. They were too overpowered for such a small stronghold at their age.
But, just as the two of them thought that it was over, another change suddenly occurred. The 10 stars that were present on the screen suddenly began merging. And in the next moment, they formed a single star.
After that, that single star converted and formed a single gene structure. The color of the gene that had appeared was blue, but, there was a strand of gold that was surrounding the gene. Although it was not that intense, it could not be hidden from a person as long as they looked at it. It was too eye-catching.
The bodies of the two suddenly began trembling. This time, this was completely out of their own expectations and dreams. The person that had appeared, she looked young, but, she had already reached the superhuman level.
Currently, they did not know how to react to this matter anymore. After all, even if they decided to call the leader of the force that was in charge of the humans that did not affiliate themselves with any organization, there was nothing that that person was going to do. After all, in front of a superhuman, what could at ordinary human do?
"Is…is that a special ability that she possesses?" The young lady stammered as she pointed at the screen. She could not believe this. After all, this was the first time that she was seeing a person that possessed a special ability.
She was not the only one who was reacting such a way because, even the young man was also having the same expression on his face. There was fewer shock and disbelief as well as fear.
When Jack saw that the two seemed to be stunned, he shook his head. It turned out that the appearance of a superhuman was not that much impactful. Rather, the thing that caused the highest impact was the presence of the special ability.
'Well, I guess this is to be expected. In such a small stronghold, there is nobody that possesses a special ability. And if one appears, they are always snatched by the people from the big strongholds.' Jack shook his head as he took a step forward.
It was also during this moment that the young man suddenly reacted. He was wondering what Jack was planning to do, even wanting to stop him, but remembering that Jack had not tested yet, he held himself back. After all, what if Jack was yet another superhuman?
Jack did not do anything else other than pressing a series of buttons on the machine. Since he had already observed during the time that the young man was pressing the buttons when Denali was being tested, he had already mastered this combination of buttons that was supposed to be pressed.
After he had finished pressing the buttons, Celine was taken out of the machine. After that, Jack laid onto the machine, so that he could complete his testing as soon as possible. They needed to go back and open the store.
"Hey, do you want me to continue staying here or are we going to continue with the testing?" Jack asked as he looked at the young man.
"Oh!" The young man finally reacted and went ahead and pressed a series of buttons. This time, his hands were trembling, even to the extent that a person could see it from a distance.
After a certain combination was pressed, Jack was taken into the machine. A red light shot out of the machine before it began scanning Jack's body.
