Chapter 16
Professor Lin brought a small bench and sat in front of Chi Ying with a mirror, staring at her unblinkingly.
Gu Chi was holding her handcuffs aside to prevent sudden accidents. All the rest, without exception, circled around Chi Ying, watching this scene nervously.
Chi Ying swallowed, a little panicked.
How does it feel, I feel like some kind of sacrifice, surrounded by a group of savages who are staring at me and performing a sacrificial ceremony.
After a long time, Professor Lin took off his glasses, and said rigorously: “At present, it seems that there is indeed no sign of mutation.”
Lu Yunfei couldn’t believe it: “Professor Lin, is she really…”
Is it the one-of-a-kind lucky guy?
In fact, this point was almost confirmed by everyone present. Chi Ying should really be safe and sound… It’s just that the probability is too low, even if the facts are in front of them, no one dares to admit it with certainty.
Professor Lin shook his head, and said after consideration: “I don’t dare to jump to conclusions on this point. After all, most of the only cases without mutations before are people with innate abilities.”
“Moreover, a small number of them have also awakened with acquired abilities since then, and have become one of the supernatural beings.”
He clenched his fist and tapped his thigh thoughtfully.
“I’ve always believed in the conclusions of the experiments. Regardless of whether Miss Chi is the lucky one, if she really didn’t mutate, she should have awakened her abilities…”
He looked at Chi Ying and asked, “Did you feel any changes in your body? For example, abstractly speaking, the brain produces some kind of controllable energy?”
Chi Ying: “…”
Yes, and more than one… wind, water, fire, earth, wood, and healing, which one do you want?
[Do you still have healing abilities? 】
Chi Ying: Not really… It seems that I can only heal myself?
If one hundred points of blood were cut off, she could get back one thousand points by herself!
She was stabbed in the arm that day, if it wasn’t for the fear of being suspicious by Gu Chi, that small wound would heal itself in minutes.
【…】
Chi Ying said confidently: My blood bar is super thick.
[…Oh, pretty good. 】
Hearing the sound of the system seemed a little disappointed, Chi Ying was puzzled and said: What’s wrong?
The system dawdled for a few seconds before replying: [Healing ability, that is a great weapon to obtain the Holy Mother value! Think about it, if you can heal the injuries of all the wounded, then the value of the Holy Mother will go up slowly! 】
Seems to make some sense…
Chi Ying lowered her head in deep thought.
Seeing that she didn’t make a sound, Gu Chi thought it was because she didn’t understand what Professor Lin said, so he lowered his head and explained softly: “General offensive abilities, such as me and Yunfei, can feel the surrounding supernatural elements and make use of them.”
“But like Mu Yu’s spatial ability, that’s not the case.”
Mu Yu nodded.
“That’s right, I have dual abilities. Unlike fire abilities, my spatial abilities only exist in consciousness.”
She looked at Chi Ying expectantly, and asked, “How is it? Can you feel anything?”
“…”
Chi Ying was a little embarrassed. If she lies and says she doesn’t, there doesn’t seem to be a solution to the current situation. After all, according to their cognition, it is most reasonable for her to awaken her abilities now.
She bit the bullet and said, “It seems that there is.”
Mu Yu’s eyes lit up, and she immediately got up and jumped in front of her.
“What ability? Wind? Fire?”
Gu Chi’s eyes flickered slightly, and his eyes were filled with relief. In this way, it means that she is really safe.
“Fuck, is it true or not?” Lu Yunfei also had a look of disbelief, and leaned closer to her and waited for Chi Ying to continue.
【What are you going to say? 】The system asked curiously.
Chi Ying: Do you mind if I treat you as a supernatural power?
【I? What’s the meaning? 】
Chi Ying then truthfully told the system about her plan.
Her next goal should be to go to the security areas at all levels to collect the Holy Mother’s value. Compared with acting alone, it is much more efficient for people with knowledge to lead nature.
In fact, she hoped to be able to stay with Gu Chi and the others in the future. They all know much more about the safe zone than she does, and Gu Chi, as the villain, will definitely have something to do with the main plot of the book.
If she can really join Gu Chi’s team, after a long time, the things in the system mall will always be exposed…
Instead of risking being suspected, it is better for her to confess now so that no one will be suspicious in the future.
【Yes, yes… But are you sure that Gu Chi will agree with you to join? 】
Chi Ying shook her head in her heart: I’m not sure.
But no matter what, she will try.
Back to reality, looking at the expectant expressions on everyone’s faces, Chi Ying settled down.
She spread her palms and pretended to close her eyes. When I opened it again, there was a delicious bean paste bun in the palm of my hand out of thin air…
“Damn, space power!”
Mu Yu was also surprised and happy, but she didn’t last more than two seconds before she realized it quickly.
She wondered: “No, since it is a newly awakened space ability, how could there be something in it?”
After listening, Lu Yunfei also calmed down a little.
“Hiss, yes, there shouldn’t be something there… and this bean paste bun looks fresh.”
“Hmm… To be precise, my ability doesn’t seem like a space ability. It doesn’t seem to be able to store things.” Chi Ying said, grabbing her fingertips.
Mu Yu frowned, “What do you mean, it’s not space, then where did you get this thing from?”
Chi Ying put on a show again, closing and opening her eyes.
“What I can see is something like a small shelf, and this bun is something that was already on it.”
The rest of the people looked at each other in blank dismay, and even Professor Lin took out a pen and paper from his pocket in amazement, preparing to record this unheard of special ability.
The only one who could be considered calm was Gu Chi. Ever since it was confirmed that Chi Ying would not mutate, he had fallen into a state of tranquility.
“Can the items on the shelf be filled automatically?”
Gu Chi was not particularly surprised, and asked the most critical question straight to the point.
“Not yet. But I feel that the above things will slowly recover.”
“Only food?”
Chi Ying shook her head, “There are other daily necessities, medicines and so on… There are also a few empty shelves, but I feel that there will be other things on them in the future.”
The rest of the empty shelves were products that she didn’t have enough points to unlock.
Gu Chi nodded.
“A very good ability. If you can find a relatively safe place, this ability is enough for you to worry about for a lifetime.”
Chi Ying hesitated to speak, but still didn’t make a request to join them.
“Okay, since you’re sure everyone is fine, let’s go to bed first. We can arrive at the headquarters tomorrow night at the latest, adjust our state, and don’t be too embarrassed.”
There was a little smile on his lips, and it was the first time in a few days that he looked in a good mood.
“Understood Captain.” Lu Yunfei also had eyes full of smiles. He looked at Chi Ying and smiled brightly.
“I just say you are lucky. If I can have a mascot like you as a teammate, I won’t be afraid of accidents in my life!”
Song Shi was not in the mood to talk at first, but everyone’s attention was on Chi Ying, and she was inexplicably upset. She brushed her hair and echoed, “Yes, it’s also the first time I’ve seen such a lucky person.”
Mu Yulinxun nodded in approval.
Originally, they were not superstitious, but now they have begun to consider whether to find a Feng Shui master to transfer their luck?
Everyone slept well that night. Especially when they had to go back to the alliance headquarters the next day.
Since the end of the day, their awakening ability was included in the Human Alliance, the headquarters is equivalent to home. Because they spend most of their time doing tasks outside and haven’t been back to the headquarters for nearly half a year, it’s hard to avoid being a little excited when they think about it.
A good night’s sleep.
Arrived at headquarters earlier than expected.
Almost in the afternoon, Chi Ying could already vaguely see the distant horizon and the tall alliance building logo.
As the car approached, she realized how amazing the building she had just glanced at was.
It looks like a small city wall structure, but it is far more subtle. On the outside is a 100-meter-high copper wall and iron wall, and on the top is the logo of the alliance, which cannot be freely entered by manpower.
The most important point is that if you want to look in from this wall from the outside, you can’t see anything at all!
It should be that the buildings inside are deliberately designed to be lower than this wall.
She glanced left and right, and there was almost no end to the iron wall in sight.
[As expected of the alliance headquarters known as the sanctuary of mankind, it is indeed more spectacular than in the novel. 】
Chi Ying also exclaimed: “It’s really big.” I thought it would be a slightly bigger tall building…
The system shakes its head.
[There are more than these here. You will know when you go in and have a look later. 】
Gu Chi got out of the car and approached the identification system on the wall. The system recognized him, and the door opened immediately.
The off-road vehicle drove in slowly, and Chi Ying finally caught a glimpse of the true face of the legendary headquarters of the Human Alliance.
Unexpectedly, the inside does not look like a site with various cutting-edge technologies. The only thing that looks more formal is the hemispherical building in the center in the distance.
What they passed along the way were all kinds of open fields and large sheds. Rather than entering the headquarters, it is more like a vegetable garden in a farmhouse…
She couldn’t help asking Gu Chi who was sitting beside her, “Why are there so many fields?”
Gu Chi explained: “There is too much uncertainty in transporting food supplies from outside. Maybe the outer area where the supply of goods is very stable today will be completely overrun by zombies tomorrow. Therefore, it is very necessary for the headquarters to set up a self-sufficient food source.”
Chi Ying nodded with a half understanding.
“However, most of these plants are not intended to be eaten.”
“what is that?”
“Seeds, to grow seeds. Although these seeds have no chance to be planted everywhere, we believe that humans will take back our land one day. At that time, it is these seeds that we depend on for survival.”
“I mentioned A-level and B-level security areas to you before, remember?”
Chi Ying nodded.
“Well, I remember.”
“Strictly speaking, the headquarters is actually the largest and most core A-level security area. The rest of the A-level areas are distributed around the headquarters, and we regularly send them the high-quality seeds we have cultivated.”
“Then why didn’t the safe zone we saw before have these?”
“That’s a C-level zone.” Gu Chi frowned regretfully, “C-level security zones are scattered all over the world, and the alliance doesn’t have the ability to guarantee everyone’s safety yet.”
As he spoke, Chi Ying’s attention was attracted by other things outside the car window.
“That car!”
Gu Chi followed her gaze and saw a huge truck wrapped in iron.
“That’s the supply team’s car. It’s filled with supplies and is responsible for distributing supplies to low-level security areas. Each of these cars will be equipped with at least one supernatural person.”
Lu Yunfei, who was driving in front, also turned his head and introduced to her: “Almost all A-level security areas have supply teams. A-level areas have production capacity, and the products produced will be sent to lower-level security areas by supply vehicles. ”
“Before in that area C, their supplies came from the supply team in area A.”
Chi Ying was a little surprised and said: “Will the headquarters be in charge of such things? I thought you only studied the most core things.”
“It’s true to say that. The affairs to be studied and managed by the headquarters are indeed very complicated. However, the supplies and food here are the most abundant of all A-level safety zones. If the surplus supplies are not sent out, it would be too wasteful. ”
I see…
Chi Ying stared at the car thoughtfully.
I always feel that this car should be able to do something else…
The author has something to say:
