XXXVIII. Before the World Collapses
In the morning, several boys in the base camp were doing their own things. When Sina arrived, Hang Yi told her that he had chosen two people who were most likely to join the alliance and was going to go to them this afternoon. Xina trusted Hangyi's judgment. She wanted to tell Hang Yi about Ji Kairui, but after hesitating, she felt that she might have a better grasp of convincing Ji Kairui by herself, so she didn't speak. They chatted for a while, and it was noon. Mi Xiaolu asks for everyone's opinion - go out to eat or order takeout.
Sun Yuchen sat on the sofa in the living room, browsing the news on his laptop, and said, "Order takeout, you can do anything." β
"There's a pork rib bowl downstairs, is that okay?" Hang Yi asked Xinna.
"Okay."
"I'll call." Mi Xiaolu 'touched' out his phone. "How many copies?"
"There are only five people, let's call it five. Han Feng went out. Hang Yi said.
Xin Na asked, "Where is Han Feng?" β
"I don't know, I said I went out to meet a friend." Hang Yi replied.
Twenty minutes later, the delivery boy brought five fragrant, hot pork rib bowls. Hang Yi shouted upstairs: "It's time to eat, Lu Hua!" β
Sun Yuchen was still on the net, his eyes were looking at the computer screen, his left hand was spread out, his fingers moved a few times, and a plate of rice bowls on the dining table flew over slowly, landing steadily on his palm.
Xina was stunned and sighed, "This is the legendary teleportation, it's amazing." β
Hang Yi shook his head and said, "We've all adapted to it these days. He sat in one place, and with a wave of his hand, water glasses, food, magazines, and so on flew byβliterally coming and going. Too lazy to talk. β
Sun Yuchen defended: "I'm not lazy, I'm practicing how to master my superpowers." Besides, the biggest advantage of my superpower is - convenience, why don't you use it? β
"I heard that he also trained a 'wool' towel to wipe his body when he took a bath, can you imagine this picture?" Hang Yi whispered.
Xinna, who was eating, burst out laughing and quickly covered her mouth.
There was a rush of footsteps, Lu Hua came down from upstairs, with an excited expression, he shouted: "After a morning of pondering, I tried it out!" It turns out that my superpower can also be transformed into other forms in addition to the 'round defense wall'! β
Several people looked at him. Hang Yi said: "'Square defensive wall'? β
Lu Hua rolled his eyes upwards: "Can't you guess a little more creatively?" β
"You can just show it."
Lu Hua took a breath and closed his eyes. After a while, a layer of light appeared around his body, clinging to and wrapping his body, and it looked like the whole person was coated with a film of light.
This is a bit of a surprise. Mi Xiaolu asked, "What is the use of this light film?" β
"It should be able to defend against all attacks." Lu Hua said.
"Have you tried?"
"No, I guess."
"Would you like to try it right away?" Hang Yi said.
"Yes." Lu Hua stretched out his arms, "Try to attack me." β
"I'm coming!" Sun Yuchen looked interested, "Is it okay to attack anywhere?" β
"Yes, come on."
Sun Yuchen stared at a glass ashtray on the coffee table, his eyes widened, and then he looked at Lu Hua sharply. The ashtray flew out with a swoop and smashed into Lu Hua's crotch. The ground shattered with a "ping", as if it had been smashed on reinforced concrete.
"Wow, it's amazing, it can really defend against all attacks." Sun Yuchen said.
Lu Hua was frightened into a cold sweat, blushed and said, "Do you have to attack here?" In case of a slip-up......"
"You said you can attack anywhere," Sun Yuchen shrugged his shoulders, "I'll try to choose the most vulnerable place." β
Xinna held her forehead with her hand, and Mi Xiaolu held back her laughter. Hang Yi was already laughing so hard that he couldn't straighten up, and Lu Hua glared at him fiercely.
Hang smiled enough, and saw that Lu Hua's body was still shrouded in that layer of light, and asked, "Is this form not as physically demanding as the circular defensive wall?" β
"Yes, that's the biggest benefit!" Lu Hua said, "I can only hold on for about ten minutes when activating the circular defensive wall, but I estimate that the defensive light film can last for more than half an hour." β
"Well, the area is smaller, so naturally it doesn't consume so much energy. However, this light film can only protect you alone, and it can't protect multiple people like a circular defensive wall. Hang Yi said regretfully.
"There are pros and cons to each form." Lu Hua said.
"Maybe your superpowers have different uses that you need to explore and discover further." Xina said thoughtfully.
"Not to mention what more functions will be added after the 'upgrade'." Mi Xiaolu said.
Everyone fell into their own musings.
After eating, Sun Yuchen continued to browse the news on the Internet. Suddenly, his eyes lit up, he saw the latest news, and shouted, "Hey, come and see." β
Hang Yi and the others walked over, and Sun Yuchen pointed to the computer screen and said: "The latest report - this morning, three 'blood sweat' patients suddenly appeared in Jiangbei District of our city. Two 'females' and one male. At present, all three have been sent to a city hospital for isolation and treatment. Hemohidrosis is a very rare disease that is called the 'doomsday disease' by Western countries......"
After reading the news, several people were uneasy. Hang Yi frowned and said, "How can there be such a terrible disease, I have never heard of it before." β
"The report says that this disease will appear before the end of the world β is it alarmist?" Xina said.
Sun Yuchen immediately looked up some relevant information about blood sweat on Google and said: "No, there is such a statement. β
Lu Hua's face turned pale: "I remember that the old gods once said 'before the world collapsed' or something, is it ...... Is the end of the world really coming? β
Several people looked at each other and felt a little confused. Sun Yuchen said: "Let's see if there are any relevant reports on TV." β
He turned on the TV with the remote control. At this time, someone opened the 'door' with a key, and it was Han Feng who came back.
Hang Yi asked, "Han Feng, have you read today's news?" β
"No, what's going on?" Han Feng sat down.
Sun Yuchen switched to a certain channel and said: "The news of this city is broadcasting!" β
The reports of blood sweat on TV are basically the same as those on the Internet, except that the TV pictures show the horror of people with blood sweat more clearly, and those who are constantly drenched in blood beads and have bright red faces look extremely unsettling. In particular, it is even more worrying to hear the sentence "There is no effective treatment at present, and the patient with the disease is estimated to only last a few hours".
The news presenter advised citizens to minimize the opportunity to go out these days, because it cannot be ruled out that there are still people with blood sweat in the urban area. If you find it, you must call the police or emergency number immediately, and you must never come into contact with people with blood sweat.
After reading the news, everyone's hearts were a little heavy. After a long while, Mi Xiaolu said: "Fortunately, we didn't go out this morning, and we also ordered takeout at noon." β
"It seems that it is best not to go out for the next two days," Xin Na said to Hang Yi, "The matter of convincing those two classmates should be slowed down." β
"Is that an exaggeration?" Lu Hua said, "Can't you go on the street? β
"You've researched the 'Defensive Light Film', and you have nothing to fear." Sun Yuchen said, "We don't dare to take risks easily. β
"That's not what I meant. Doesn't the news say that even if a person with hemohidrosis is found, as long as you avoid physical contact, you will be fine? After all, it's not a respiratory infection or an airborne infection, so do you need to be afraid of it? β
"But didn't you hear it on the news? All three patients were found in Gangbuk District β we are in Gangbuk District right now! Can you be careful? Sun Yuchen said.
"Indeed, this disease is 'quite 'fatal', so it's better to be cautious." Han Feng wiped the sweat from his forehead, "Why didn't you turn on the air conditioner, isn't it hot?" β
"Is it hot? Why didn't I feel it......" Hang Yi glanced at Han Feng, his expression frozen.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Han Feng asked in confusion.
Xin Na also looked at Han Feng, and as soon as her eyes touched Han Feng's face, she immediately let out "Ah! He screamed and jumped up from the couch. At this time, all the people who saw Han Feng's appearance 'gasped' at the same time, and they were horrified and 'desired'.
Han Feng was stunned for a few seconds, and suddenly turned his hand over - the hand that had wiped the sweat just now was full of blood.
"Ah......" Han Feng only felt a chill rush up from the soles of his feet, and cold sweat broke out. He wiped the sweat from his face with his hand again, and when he saw it, he almost fainted.
Hang Yi and the others involuntarily stepped back, trying to stay as far away from Han Feng as possible. Han Feng looked at them in horror, stood up tremblingly, he saw the terrifying appearance of his face covered with blood in the reflective mirror of the TV wall, and shouted loudly: "This ...... What's going on? I was fine just now, why did I bleed and sweat?! β
"You just ...... Where did it go? Lu Hua asked tremblingly.
Han Feng was panicked at the moment, unable to think calmly at all, and said incoherently: "I haven't arrived...... I'm here, ...... with my friends."
"Don't say it, call the emergency number!" Hang Yi shouted. F
