Chapter 3: Going to Report

1815 Words
However, it was fated that Lee Sing should not die in such a tragic way at this time... As he lost consciousness completely and sank into the bathtub for the third minute, another unexpected event occurred... The thing that caused all these events, the Morra Stone bracelet, underwent a surprising transformation... Morra Stone is a relatively common mineral in the universe, not uncommon. It has been circulating in the market as a low-end jewelry among the pan-human alliance in the universe because of its various colors and vibrant hues. Because it is too common, the warden used it as an excuse when defending himself in prison, and was ridiculed by the woman. But now, this ordinary bracelet is emitting an unusual aura... The entire bracelet is made of ordinary alloy, with only a small green Morra Stone embedded in it, the size of a fingernail. After Lee Sing had been unconscious in the bathtub for a long time, the bracelet suddenly emitted a strange green light! It seemed as if a force was pulling it up into the air, and it slowly flew out of the bathtub and continued to rise upwards. Even the arm that Li Xing was holding was slowly lifted up, gradually, Li Xing's body in the bathtub also followed the necklace and slowly left the bathtub... The necklace continued to drag him out of the bathtub and onto the floor of the bathroom, still suspended in mid-air. The green stone emitting a green light suddenly emitted a strange beam of light straight at Li Xing's forehead. Then, the stone, as if it had completed its task, slowly fell back to the ground from the air. Li Xing didn't know how long he had been unconscious, but he slowly regained consciousness after his awareness returned. He didn't stay unconscious for long before he fully regained consciousness. He only felt that his condition had improved a lot. The burning sensation in his head, arms, legs, and stomach had disappeared, but he still had no strength. What surprised him was that he was lying on the floor. He remembered that he was lying in the bathtub before he lost consciousness. Perhaps his body instinctively struggled after his consciousness disappeared, and he ended up lying outside. He temporarily convinced himself with this explanation... "Ugh...," Li Xing lay on the floor for a while and felt that some of his strength had returned to his body. He began to try to stand up, but his body was still weak and it took Li Xing almost a minute to even attempt to stand up. He was practically dragging his body to the bed, when he realized that he was soaking wet. Li Xing cursed himself for being a fool and remembered that he had just climbed out of the bathtub. How could he just lie down on the bed like that? Thinking this, he decided to go back to the bathroom to take off his wet clothes and dry himself. Then he would change into another set of clothes. His body was recovering quickly, and by the time he made the round trip, Li Xing felt like his body had fully recovered. It was the first time he had experienced something like this, and it was quite strange to him. After changing his clothes, he still didn't believe that his body was fully recovered. He supported himself on his hands and did two push-ups, feeling that he had no bad sensations at all. Only then did he believe that his body was fully recovered. Finally, the weight in his heart lifted, and he felt healthy again. It was then that he remembered the more important question: had his mental ability domain been developed? Thinking back online, there were some experienced users who had taken the drug and shared their own experiences, from having no powers to acquiring them and how to use them. Li Xing excitedly opened his phone and began searching. Soon after, following the instructions from the person he found online, Li Xing began his first experiment... Sitting quietly on his bed, he calmed his body and began using his mind to sense the unusual wave of energy in his brain that the person had described. The tutorial said that the search process would take a long time, and that the person had taken 40 minutes to find it, with some people taking over an hour to discover it. So Li Xing prepared himself for a long search and decided not to worry about finding a job today. After 15 minutes... Li Xing opened his eyes, and an extremely strange expression appeared on his face... But the reason he was showing this strange expression was not that he hadn't found the wave of energy, but that he had found it... Is this real? What's going on? Why did he find it so quickly? Could it be a hallucination?... A series of questions filled his mind, making him hesitant to take any action. He felt it for a long time before finally confirming it. It might really be the wave that the person online was talking about, the one that he was looking for... So, on to the guidance... He took several deep breaths in a row and began to concentrate on trying to use the wave... Again, it was beyond his expectations, and the guidance was also quite simple and didn't take him too much time... The wave was successfully drawn to his arm, and began to release through his palm. There was a visible white mist that was emanating from his right palm! His palm was facing his cheek, and the cold mist hit his face directly. This was hilarious, as he felt a second cold sensation on his face after feeling the first one, his eyelashes, cheeks, and even his forehead were covered in a layer of frost... Cold... It was too sudden, and it suddenly made Li Xing jump. He quickly stopped his action. After feeling the discomfort on his face, he quickly took some warm water and dampened a towel with it, then gently applied it to his face. After two or three minutes, he felt that his skin on his face had regained its sensation. After finishing all this, he sat blankly on the bed for a long time. He shamefully cried... He hadn't cried in many years, but today, what had happened to him was just too much for him to bear, and he couldn't help crying... Because of poverty, he had no choice but to drop out of school and try his best to earn a living by working, even though his peers were going to school with their backpacks. He thought of every possible way to earn a living, just to have enough money for his daily meals. Because he had no parents, he was bullied a lot when he was young, and he often cried in the corner in secret, unable to find anyone to rely on. He thought that his life might be like this for the rest of his life, living a helpless and miserable life. However, he had no idea that fate was kind to him and gave him such an opportunity, such good luck, that he could stand out among the 5 billion people on Earth because of this thing. "I'll try my best," he silently thought to himself. But he was not the kind of person who aimed too high. After the initial excitement, he quickly returned to reality. He was so poor that he lived in a rented house, and his only source of income was gone. Now he had to find a job. Just when he wanted to search for some local stores that were hiring online, he opened his phone and suddenly laughed. He had completely forgotten about that! He was now a legitimate developer of supernatural abilities, why would he look for a job! He clearly remembered that supernatural ability holders only needed to register with the relevant authorities to receive a considerable amount of money. The development of extrasensory abilities is not solely dependent on drugs, and some people are naturally awakened, although there has never been one on Earth. However, the department for extrasensory abilities established on Earth has taken this into consideration. Once an Earth person naturally awakens, they only need to report to the department and register, and they will receive a sum of money. Thinking about this, Li Xing's heart was ablaze with excitement! He logged on to the internet again and searched for the relevant departments in his city. Hmm...it was still a considerable distance from where he lived... No rush, he had not eaten yet after all this commotion. The room he rented had only a living room, a bathroom, and no kitchen or bedroom. The kitchen and bedroom were all in the living room... He immediately made himself a bowl of noodles and greedily added two eggs. Thinking about the wonderful days ahead, he picked up the bowl and started grinning foolishly. He quickly finished his noodles and tidied up everything. Leaving the room, he followed the bus route he had found on his phone and soon got on a bus. All the way, he was restless. He had only thought of coming to register in a hurry, forgetting whether he was qualified or not. He had only managed to produce a cold blast just now, and he was not sure what type of extrasensory ability he had. What if I get there and they tell me I don't qualify, would that not be a little embarrassing...? Sitting on the bus, he twisted and turned restlessly, unable to calm down... No matter how much Li Xing was confused, after more than an hour, he finally arrived at the place. It was written above, "Registration Office for People with Special Abilities," and there were no guards at the entrance, so he easily walked in. It was quite empty inside, and there was no one there... Thinking about it, it was only natural that there was no one there, after all, he hadn't heard of any Earth people who had automatically awakened... Forget it! He gritted his teeth and stamped his foot. He bravely approached the staff member. Sitting there was an elderly man. He seemed quite surprised that someone had come here. After staring for a moment, he got up and greeted, "Sir, hello. Is there anything I can help you with?" "Um, it's like this," Li Xing thought about his words. Once he was satisfied with his choice, he spoke up, "I feel that my brain has been acting very strangely lately... No, I mean, it's not that kind of strange. It's... uh..."... As soon as he opened his mouth, he stuttered and even he found it a bit funny... "Okay! Let me take a look and you'll see."
