Thirteen: Dark Room
There was a dead silence all around, no sound was heard, and no answer was answered. Suddenly frightened, she turned slowly and hurried forward. Before he could reach the door, suddenly, a burst of light filled the room. She didn't see what it was, but before she could defend herself, she slipped and sat on the ground.
"What? Strange, this FAT base is really weird! She muttered to herself. Immediately, she hurriedly covered her eyes, and she was ready to wait for the light to dissipate before looking over.
"Hey, are you okay, why are you covering your eyes?" A man crouched down and asked her curiously.
She felt that the voice was familiar, so she slowly opened her eyes, and looking out between the cracks in her hand, she saw a boy's head looking at her, and it turned out to be the boy. She quickly lowered her hand, and this time she saw the boy, and it was Professor Carla standing behind her. She slowly stood up and looked up at the ceiling, where there were lights that looked like those used by Doron, but they weren't, because they were "U-shaped lights" - the same ones she had seen when she first arrived at the "FAT" base, and they were named "U-shaped lights" because they resembled the U-shape in mathematics. However, this kind of lamp is much brighter than the usual "Duolun" lamp, and it is for the special use of the aliens. She'd been in the dark for so long that her eye cells would be a little too used to it.
Now, she's finally not scared.
"Where did you just go? Aren't you guys in front? Why did I walk in the direction of the shadow, and you were gone, and I smelled—" she said anxiously.
"You smell a burnt smell and see a puff of white smoke, don't you?" Professor Carla said that it seemed that he already knew.
"Well, yes, what's going on? How do you know? The sweat on her face hadn't completely dried.
"Well, yes, what's going on? How do you know? The sweat on her face hadn't completely dried.
"I'll explain," the boy said to her, "Professor Carla sensed the power in your body a few years ago, and we've been secretly observing you for two years. The reason he didn't let me take you until now was because your abilities were already on fire. Each Ability starts at a different time, but it's between the ages of 12 and 18. Your abilities will grow stronger and more unfathomable in the future. But now, because you've only just turned on your abilities, you can't hurt us yet—"
She interrupted him and said anxiously, "Can't hurt you?" Is that really the case? I didn't mean to hurt you! I don't understand what you're saying! What does this have to do with what just happened? ”
"Don't worry, I'll explain to you slowly. In fact, because only you can stop the Undefeated Emperor from destroying the galaxy, your abilities will be powerful in the future. Professor Carla says you're the highest-level ability he's ever seen in the ability world, and you should be able to reach the S rank. Now your ability indicator is... Heck, I forgot, it's less than 10,000 anyway, but you have to learn to control your own abilities - aka "self-control", otherwise you won't be able to control them - the ability indicator will be very high, and you will kill us before you know it. While we know you don't want to do that at all, you can't control your abilities without self-control, you know. Just like those two dark shadows, you accidentally touched them, and they disappeared because now your abilities are increasing little by little. The boy took a deep breath.
The girl slowly stood up, frowning, not knowing what to say, and at the same time afraid of her own abilities.
"Give! Eat this! Great for mental relief! With that, the boy took out a strawberry-flavored chocolate and handed it to the girl.
"I didn't expect you to like chocolate too, and it's strawberry-flavored, but thank you, I like strawberry-flavored things very much." The girl said with a smile.
The boy stood next to the girl with his hands folded on his waist and continued, "Professor Kara's office has an automated monitoring computer, not the kind that Doren uses. This kind of computer is automatic, that is, it is like a person, a living cell, without our operation, it will automatically report to us all the dynamics of the people or things we are interested in. We can know what's going on on your planet through this computer. If we don't bring you in this time, it won't be long before you inadvertently hurt your family or your friends, because your abilities are growing, and Doron can't handle your abilities. You might wonder why you didn't show any abilities when you were younger, before you were 12 years old. ”
"That's because I never thought about it, so I didn't try to move the object – I didn't even think about it! None of this exists for me! She said excitedly, trying to deny everything she had heard.
"Wrong! That's because your ability doesn't activate at the time, and when you reach a certain age, it turns on. Otherwise, you wouldn't have saved that little boy with your abilities, would you? ”
"You know that?" She sat down on the floor and covered her mouth with her hands in question.
"Of course I know, like I said, we've been following you for two years now—before you came here." The boy said to her, with a look of pride.
"Woooooo That.. What should I do? She burst into tears of fright, spitting out word by word. Her former vitality was completely gone—she was only fifteen years old, after all.
The boy walked up to her, crouched down, and said, "You have to trust us, even if you don't believe me, you should believe Professor Kara, right?" We'll all help you, don't worry. You just need to learn "self-control" in the past few years, and you can do it, and don't think about anything else. And you have to be proficient in your abilities. The boy tried to comfort her. She suddenly felt that the boy was not so annoying, and her mood gradually improved. She saw Professor Carla looking at her—with confidence in her.
There was silence in the house for 1 minute....
"By the way, why didn't I hurt you just now?" She suddenly asked, "Those two shadows, you didn't mean my powers-".
"Actually, we just went to Professor Kara's office - on the 2134th floor. It was the safest place in the whole building. The two shadows you saw just now are virtual shadows, and we left the shadows here so that they would come back when we came back later, but who knew that you "killed" the shadows. Professor Carla has the ability to teleport, in fact, I also have this ability, but I am not proficient. Professor Carla was afraid that I would get stuck in my own transfer space when I transferred, so we left the virtual shadow here - the purpose was to let me come back safe and sound, if Professor Carla went alone, there would be no need for a shadow," the boy said this, looking at her a little embarrassed, "To teleport through the shadow, it must be in a very dark place, otherwise the shadow will be gone." Of course, skilled people don't need shadows to teleport anytime and anywhere, just like Professor Kara. With that, the boy looked up at Professor Carla with admiration.
This place is called the "Dark Room" and is designed to prevent the "Undefeated" from using teleportation and invisibility to enter the FAT base. If they invade the FAT base, the light waves on the walls here sense their abilities and reflect transparent light all the time. If you turn on the lights, you lose all the effect. Professor Carla explained with a smile on her face.
"There's a special person in charge of detection - Laura, she has super ability sensing ability and light wave ability, once a bad guy enters the FAT base, she will see the light wave line segment reflected on the wall here, and she will notify Professor Kara. So the lights don't usually go on here, it's every Sunday, because Professor Carla will give you a mini-class here. Because if the light is turned on, the power of Lora's light wave ability is reduced by half, and Lola will not be able to accurately see all the suspicious light wave lines from here, even if she has a super ability to sense the ability to know the location of the bad guys, but it is not as strong as relying on the light wave ability - because the light wave ability shows the position very accurately. Don't underestimate the "undefeated" people, they can be powerful, otherwise how can they declare war on us. However, the building where the FAT base is located is too big, although most of the floors are just to hide people's eyes, but if Professor Carla manages so many floors every day, how can he stand it, even the abnormal people are tired enough, so there will be a caretaker on one floor, but there is only one "dark room", which is on the 801st floor where our FAT base is located. The boy took a deep breath and said, for he felt that he had finally finished explaining everything.
"Oh, I see, I see! But what did you do in the office all of a sudden? She asked curiously, as if her questions were always endless.
"Okay, let's not talk about the rest. I'm going to teach you a lesson right now, because you know so little, and that's because you're used to living in a Toronto family. Come on, sit in the back, you can sit in whichever you want, try to sit in the front as much as possible. Professor Carla said - he was busy getting something in his tote bag just now, but now he was free.
She slowly stood up, walked a few meters, and then turned to the side again. There were two rows of seats in the room, and the tables were long and the stools were long, the same as those in Doron. She walked over to the second seat in the second row and sat down - since there were four seats in each row, she thought the second seat in the second row was the best, of course, as she thought. But the boy didn't think so, he thought that the first seat in the first row was the best.
She then glanced to the door, and saw the boy standing pitifully, looking inside.
Now, in front of her is a "lectern" like a "lectern" used by Duolun, sitting here, reminiscent of her classroom at Duolun school, but there is no blackboard on the wall.
How did it all happen so quickly? Is this really true? I can't believe all this, it's so strange! There were so many thoughts in her head, it was as if she was really dreaming...
Suddenly, a voice interrupted her musings, and she glanced at the door, where the boy was no longer there.
