Directly heats up human body

I reached behind me, touching him on the shoulder, and he stiffened until I started to warm his body from the inside out. That took a level of precise control that the original enemy soldier simply hadn't had. Heating his cells from the inside out without cooking them took a level of precision that I never could have gotten without opening his skull and taking a look at his brain. It wasn't nearly as satisfying learning by demonstration, and there was definitely lost by doing it that way.

The truth was that I could have got the temperature exactly right on his water, but I didn't want to give anyone exact ideas of what I could do. There were telepaths in the ranks of the evolved, which meant that their armies or spy services might have some. Ted wouldn't realize the kind of fine control I had and hopefully any mind readers wouldn't either.
