Luo Youcheng sat on the steps at the door of the villa, looking at the courtyard occupied by weeds and branches, rubbing the walnuts under his neck with his hands, his mind was messy. Yesterday, he had the worst day, first because he was hunted down for a few pieces of synthetic food, and he killed someone. Then he killed someone again to save his partner, was hunted down again, and killed again.

There is no going back to the city of freedom.

The city of freedom was not his home, but for some reason, his heart was empty.

Since he and Shi Yanshan have lived a gopher-like life at the base of Zizai City. They call themselves beggars, which is already a beautification of their identity. The food of the residents of the city is fixed and quoted, and ordinary people have a surplus of food to give to them. Since the death of my father, they have lived a life of a few days, a few rare festivals, and they can get a little pitiful "gift" from the hands of adults. There are only two ways for them to make a living, one is to pick up the garbage of the rich's house, and the other is to steal. When I'm a little older, I occasionally get the opportunity to help someone with menial work and change a bite or two of food. Or pick up waste in the vicinity of the base, and barter with the cripple.

At this moment, he left the familiar place that had never left him with good memories, left the familiar strangers, said goodbye to the way of life he was most familiar with, and felt that the road ahead was at a loss.

"Want to be a rat for life? Ever wanted to be a king? System Guangxu doesn't want to see his "host" sink in.

"Huh." After eating the last meal and not the next meal, the king is still the king, Luo Youcheng is too lazy to take this stubble.

"Even if you are a mouse, you must become the king of rats." System Guangxu continued to bewitch.

Luo Youcheng rolled his eyes, and he didn't know if the system Guangxu could see it, "Why should I?" ”

"Your ability, your unique ability." System Guangxu said firmly.

"Just because that person else doesn't attack, I'll just watch stupidly, and if someone else attacks, I don't know the stupid skills of the spirit?"

"I've never seen this ability before, but I've been thinking about it all night and think your ability isn't that simple. Tell me, what was the situation of the two times you successfully launched? ”

Luo Youcheng thought about it seriously: "I feel like I'm going to die, and my mind is blank." ”

"Unsuccessful?"

Luo Youcheng shook his head.

System Guangxu snapped his fingers in Luo Youcheng's mind, startling the guy: "That's right, you have just opened your soul intelligence, and you can't consciously apply your ability yet." But when your mind comes to a standstill, the abilities that lie deep in your subconscious will defend itself. ”

Luo Youcheng was very confused: "What do you mean?" ”

"That is, the two times you activated the ability, it was controlled by the subconscious, and what you have to do now is train yourself to consciously manipulate the ability."

Luo Youcheng became interested: "How to do it?" ”

"Let's do an experiment first."

Under the guidance of the system Guangxu, Luo Youcheng found an empty jam bottle and hung it under the chandelier in the living room. He pushed the jam bottle into the distance, and with the rope pulling it, the jam bottle swung off into the distance.

"Trick your subconscious mind and keep yourself in mental stagnation." System Guangxu said.

When the bottle turned back, Luo Youcheng began to shout loudly, but the bottle hit him without hindrance, and he dodged and dodged.

"You can't die if you get hit by a bottle, try to empty your brain. One more time. ”

Luo Youcheng closed his eyes and tried to put his brain into a pause, this time he was smashed by the bottle, and he took a few steps back with his forehead covered.

"Again, you imagine the bottle as a bullet, and you can't avoid it."

Luo Youcheng's mind flashed three hunters, and then flashed the huge head of the vomiting maniac, and the dangerous suffocation seemed to come to his mind again, he pushed the bottle forward hard, and shouted: "Come on." The bottle slammed into the invisible wall and swung back.

"What do you feel?"

"Strength, I have a power in my head." Luo Youcheng muttered.

System Guangxu laughed: "Practice more, and when your ability can be used as you like, you can try to control this power." I've always felt like your ability isn't just about bouncing. ”

Luo Youcheng began to try to activate his abilities again and again. On the stairs, Shi Yanshan, who was woken up, looked at his shouting partner with wide eyes, sometimes seeing the bottle hit his head, and sometimes seeing the bottle being pushed away by an inexplicable force, there was an inexplicable excitement in his heart. Brother Cheng's ability doesn't seem to be very proficient, but that's a matter of time, doesn't this mean that he has a backer in the future, and his life in this dead city will be much easier.

Luo Youcheng practiced for a day, and Shi Yanshan sat on the steps and watched for a day. Gradually, Luo Youcheng stopped shouting and was able to practice his abilities silently. The two had already adapted to the rhythm of life of not eating for a few days, and they didn't feel hungry.

As the sky grew darker, Shi Yanshan began to feel sleepy, and when the upper and lower eyelids began to fight, he seemed to see the glass bottle dancing in the air. He subconsciously rubbed his eyes, but he couldn't hold back the sleepiness, his body was crooked, and he fell asleep against the wall. When I woke up the next day, I found myself in bed.

When Shi Yanshan went downstairs to the restaurant, Luo Youcheng was "teasing" a can, holding a laser pointer in his hand, the red dots slid disorderly across the table, and the cans slid on the table, chasing the red dots like a cat. Shi Yanshan stared at the can without blinking, mechanically moved himself to the dining table, tilted his head and twisted it, trying to figure out how the can came to life.

Suddenly, the can gave up the red dot, rushed towards Shiyan Mountain, slipped a meter on the dining table, jumped "vertically", and went straight to the door of Shiyan Mountain, when he was still an arm's length away, the can stopped sharply and was suspended in the air. "Wang~", Shi Yanshan leaned back in fright. When he sat on the ground, he realized that the dog barked from Luo Youcheng's mouth.

He was both surprised and envious: "Brother Cheng, isn't your ability a rebound?" ”

"My ability has been upgraded, and it's now called Mind Control." Luo Youcheng said.

"What the hell? Can I learn or not? ”

"I'm talented, you can't learn it. But ......" he waved his hand and grabbed it: "Follow you to become a brother, nothing is impossible." When I get the chance, I'll give you an ability, like a vomit demon, and spit on nothing. ”

"Brother Cheng, can we change the ability? That one...... It's disgusting too. ”

Looking at Shi Yanshan's disgusted look, Luo Youcheng clenched his fists on the table and laughed wildly.

"I can't say exactly what it is, it depends on your talent. Let me tell you this, we need to get the awakening reagent first, this thing can awaken the hidden ability in your body, and when the time comes, it will be what it is. Luo Youcheng glanced at Shi Yanshan and said with disgust: "Go and wash, let's eat something after washing." ”

Shi Yanshan is not in a hurry, there is no ability, and he has come over for more than ten years. It is said that it is impossible for a handsome xenomorph like them to have special abilities, but doesn't Brother Cheng have it now? Sooner or later, I'll have it. He nodded and headed for the bathroom.

"There's a lot of clothes in the wardrobe in the bedroom, find a set that fits." Luo Youcheng shouted.

When the rejuvenated Shi Yanshan returned to the restaurant, Luo Youcheng was trying to open the can with his mind, his forehead was sweating slightly, obviously he had been trying for a long time. Seeing Shi Yanshan, he smiled awkwardly, grabbed the pull ring of the can, and opened the can.
