Chapter 26:
The five people were a little nervous, especially the ones with fire and water superpowers. They looked at each other with a sense of pride and excitement. They had supernatural abilities, which made them different from ordinary people. The other party must be intending to let them join their team. Should they agree?
Others who knew that they had superpowers were very envious and a little resentful. They believed that people with superpowers would definitely be valued and treated completely differently.
Ye Xiao walked towards the five people, but did not look at the two superpowers. Instead, he said, "You are students from the University City District of Peking University. I would like to learn more about the situation there."
Female graduate student with fire-type ability: "..."
Male graduate student with water-type ability: “…”
Why was this different from what they imagined?
…
At this time, Lin Tantan had been brought to the big office where they were staying. Bai Cheng wanted to ask her about supernatural abilities, and the others were naturally curious about what supernatural abilities were.
So Lin Tantan had no choice but to show them the abilities that she had demonstrated in front of Ye Xiao.
Mei Bosheng said with envy, "We don't have any superpowers, but you have two at once. We were better off without comparing ourselves to others!"
He then asked, "What kind of superpower do you think Bai Cheng will have?"
Space-type ability.
But Lin Tantan couldn't say anything now, so she told Bai Cheng that he'd better have a good rest, replenish his nutrition and maintain his strength.
She also said this to a stranger yesterday, because it was really crucial.
For a supernatural being, there were two tests before becoming a real supernatural being. The second test was the use of crystal cores, and the first was the awakening stage.
The risk of awakening was still quite high. If a person failed, they could die or turn into a zombie. Some of the zombies in the early days of the apocalypse came to being due to failed awakenings. This was because, sometimes among a group of people, if one person failed to awaken supernatural ability and turned into a zombie, they would bite the other oblivious people and soon the whole group would be wiped out.
This led to frequent accidents in some early survivor organizations, bases, safe zones, etc. But people were not fools and quickly figured out the reasons, then immediately isolated anyone with an abnormal body temperature.
Therefore, it was no exaggeration to say that awakening superpowers was like passing through the gates of hell. If enough energy could be replenished in this process, and people with special abilities were present to help guide, the failure rate would be greatly reduced.
Lin Tantan knew how to guide, but she wasn’t supposed to understand it, so she didn't show it at this time. She knew that Bai Cheng would successfully awaken his superpowers in the end.
Several people immediately urged Bai Cheng to lie down and rummaged through the drawers to find something nutritious for him to eat, making Bai Cheng not know whether to laugh or cry.
Lin Tantan watched all this emotionally. They had such a good relationship, but in the end, no one in such a close-knit team survived.
She silently looked at these vivid faces, Bai Cheng, Mei Bosheng, Xu Li, Zhong Xiong, the ordinary-looking one holding a computer was the technology geek Jiang Xiaotian, the pale-skinned one who looked thin and seemed not so sociable was the prophet Cheng Qinan - hey, why was he staring at her? And the one with a more feminine look was the humanoid arsenal boss Xu Qin who could make some lethal weapons even in the worst of circumstances.
Hey, why was he holding her axe and studying it?
Xu Qin suddenly spoke up: "Can your gold-type ability be used on this axe?"
Lin Tantan said, "Yes."
Then she demonstrated it, attaching the gold power to the axe blade, and then the originally sharp axe blade became even sharper. Xu Qin took it, and the gold on the axe blade did not disappear immediately. He picked it up and gently scratched it on the sofa, just like scratching tofu, and an armrest fell off immediately.
Everyone: “…”
"Old Xu, you sleep on the sofa tonight!" Mei Bosheng shouted. The sofa was not long enough to begin with, and he cut off a section of it! Then he pulled out his knife and said to Lin Tantan with a smile: "Miss Lin, no, Tantan, can you modify this knife as well?"
Zhong Xiong said thoughtfully: "If bullets use this ability, ordinary bullets can also have the effect of penetrating armor."
The shy Xu Li also came over with his sword in his arms: "Can my sword also be coated with such a layer? Even if the effect is only temporary."
He wanted to experience the feeling of holding a magic sword and destroying everything in its path.
Xu Qin, the humanoid arsenal and weapon modification expert, thought even more. He looked at Lin Tantan with shining eyes: "Ms. Lin, no, Tantan, I have an idea and wonder if you are interested."
Lin Tantan shrank her neck. She was too naive. She took back her sympathy for these people. These people were not the ones who needed sympathy. They were all so fierce, okay?
So when Ye Xiao came back, he saw the little girl he brought back, being cornered by his unruly comrades with a stiff face, while those guys were holding knives and swords, stroking pistols and holding axes…
Ye Xiao's eyebrows jumped heavily: "What are you doing?!"
