Finding an Ability was certainly not an easy task. After all, those who had Awakened Abilities made up only five out of every thousand people worldwide. This meant that, on average, there was only one Ability among every two hundred individuals. Moreover, these Abilities were also afraid of toxic gas and generally behaved like ordinary people, staying indoors and not daring to wander outside carelessly. Therefore, locating these Abilities required considerable effort.
The next morning, Lu Xiaoran continued to fly through the city, this time deliberately slowing his speed to closely observe each window of the residential buildings. After about half an hour of flying, he heard a man's anguished voice coming from a window ahead. He slowly approached the window, hovering in mid-air to take a closer look inside.
Lu Xiaoran saw a man standing by the window, completely motionless. Upon closer inspection, he noticed that the man was covered in a thin layer of ice. It looked as if he were a frozen corpse, likely already dead. Freezing a living person into an ice sculpture was clearly not something an ordinary person could accomplish. Lu Xiaoran suspected that there might be an Ability present in that room.
He adjusted his angle and continued to observe the interior through the window. Soon, he discovered that there was also a woman wearing a hat and a middle-aged man in his forties inside the room. The middle-aged man had a look of sheer terror on his face as he repeatedly waved his hands at the woman, appearing extremely frightened.
In contrast, the woman seemed calm and collected. Holding a cup of water, she slowly advanced toward the man. The man was soon cornered against the wall; he opened his mouth to say something that resembled a plea for the woman to spare him. However, she paid him no mind and raised her cup to splash water at him.
At that moment, a bizarre scene unfolded. As the water splashed from the cup onto the man, it instantly froze upon contact with his body. Half of him became tightly encased in ice against the wall. The man's expression twisted in pain as he struggled, seemingly trying to escape.
But the woman didn't give him a chance at all; she reached out and pressed her hand against the man. In an instant, the Middle Man was frozen like an ice sculpture, just as Lu Xiaoran had seen with another person moments before. This woman must possess the Ability, which seemed to be related to freezing.
After observing closely, Lu Xiaoran decided to enter the house directly and copy this woman's Ability. He flew to the window and raised his foot, delivering a powerful kick to the glass.
With a crash, the window shattered into several pieces, shards raining down onto the ground. Thanks to the sturdy Protective Gear he wore, Lu Xiaoran didn't have to worry about being cut by the broken glass. With a nimble leap, he jumped through the now-empty window.
The sound of shattering glass startled the woman inside. She turned around nervously to look at the window and was surprised to see Lu Xiaoran standing there, completely encased in black armor, motionless in front of her.
