Chapter 28: The Awakened
It is so hard that a bowl of instant noodles is eaten in two meals, and half of the seasoning is left behind, and then it is used to make water to soak steamed buns for the third meal.
Life is not easy, and for high rents, of course, it is prohibitive.
"Sir." The black boy saluted decently.
"Ever been a soldier?" Wang Tu raised an eyebrow and asked.
"Nope." The black boy shook his head and sighed, "Speaking of which, it's quite a pity. β
"Originally, I was asked to go, but my brother snatched the opportunity, and I could only stay and inherit the family property."
"Isn't that good?" Wang Tu was stunned and couldn't help but say.
As if recalling something unbearable from the past, the black boy said bitterly: "You haven't experienced it, you don't understand." Every day, I go out early and return late, check the accounts, keep accounts, and collect money at the door, which makes my life as plain as water and no fun. β
"It's not fun to make money, it's even more boring to spend money, I actually hate my parents, they gave me a life that is constrained everywhere and imperfect."
On the side, the corners of Wang's mouth twitched a few times, and he finally resisted the urge to pull out the military thorn.
Nima ...... There is a serious suspicion that this guy has launched some kind of attack on himself, but he can't find any evidence.
"Congratulations, you're finally free." Twisting his wrist, Wang Tu said sincerely.
"Thank you."
The black boy nodded with satisfaction, his eyes fiery, "I got rid of the boring past, and more importantly, I like this feeling of survival in the last days." Enjoy life and death out of control, so exciting. β
Forehead...... Stimulate your third uncle's head.
What the hell is this thinking?
Wang Tu couldn't hold back any longer, and slapped it out, and the black boy who hit him covered his head and squatted on the ground.
After a while, when I stood up again, my tearful eyes were full of doubt and fear.
"You...... What are you doing with me? β
"Oh, there's a little bug." Wang Tu explained.
In the heart - ten thousand horses galloping.
"Excuse me, help me mark where we are now." Without further ado, he pointed to the map, and the king threw out a marker.
The black boy was still rubbing his head, picked up the pen with his other hand, squatted down to look at it a few times, and quickly drew a circle in one place.
"Where's the Youyou Toy Factory?" Immediately afterwards, the king disciple said.
"Toy factory?" The black boy looked puzzled, the name made him sound familiar and a little strange at the same time.
Wang Tu reminded: "It's the factory director who ran away with his sister-in-law, and he was on the evening news." β
"Oh......" The black boy thought about it instantly, smiled, and said: "Sir, it's called Jiangjiang Tannery, and it was remodeled after being acquired, and it started to make toys." β
The black boy said, having found the location and drew a striking circle on it.
"When?"
"Probably February of the year before last."
"No wonder."
At that time, the king's disciples had not yet come.
It's the factory on the low hill.
It still has a glorious history.
However, the former one went bankrupt, and the latter one was more miserable and was buried directly.
β¦β¦
In fact, 60 percent of the Lu Wang disciples in the southern part of the city are still familiar.
It's just out of an abundance of caution that it's safer to let the locals reconfirm.
Many lesser-known trails have more strategic value than broad roads.
Traffic is not affected, and you can also shorten the distance and avoid high-risk areas where zombies gather in large numbers.
The black boy looked at the location of the factory on the map, scratched his chin, and said suspiciously: "The meteor I saw a few days ago seems to have fallen over there." β
"Meteor...... What day? β
"On the day it rained, at night."
"It's raining at night, what are you doing outside?" Wang Tu said casually.
"Hey, I read what is written in the novel, if you get drenched or drink rain in the last days, you will gain great power." The black boy said seriously.
"Interesting." With his hands in his pockets, Wang Tu asked with interest, "What about the rest of the story?" β
The black boy looked loveless, and said with a wry smile: "I'm about to collapse, and my legs are still weak." β
Sassy operation, this guy is a joke.
Wang Tu couldn't help but laugh, and asked curiously: "It's quite serious, how much did you drink?" β
"Five bowls...... It's still six bowls. The black boy said weakly.
He thought about it carefully, but he couldn't remember, but he thought it tasted good anyway, so he drank it to his heart's content.
"You're thirsty." Wang Tu teased.
"Maybe."
The black boy muttered to himself, "However, I don't know if it's an illusion, I always feel that I'm different." β
"Not to mention the large amount of food, I am full of energy, and I walk and jump with the wind. Especially the day before yesterday, my hand was cut by a knife, and it didn't take long for the scar to heal. β
As he spoke, he raised his arm and showed the king the wound on his hand.
It is about two centimeters long, but it is dark brown and almost falls off.
Seeing this scene, Wang Tu's eyes flashed, and his heart moved slightly, thoughtfully.
Unbeknownst to the Black Boy, he had already attracted the extra attention of the royal disciples.
He continued to lie on the map and circled the twelve buildings that once belonged to him with a marker.
"I'm lonely." He pouted suddenly.
β¦β¦
"Base." The king said silently in his heart.
"Hello, Commander." She was quick to respond.
"What's going on with him?" It seems that the rain did bring him something special.
Because of the king disciple himself, he has also received obvious improvements in strength, speed, recovery ability, etc.
"After testing, the other party is a one-star awakened person, and his body functions have been strengthened in many ways." After a moment of silence, the base replied.
It was the "One-Star Awakener" again, and when he heard this introduction for the second time, Wang Tu suddenly became interested.
recalled that day, I drank a bowl of it, and it was drenched in soup.
Perhaps the "rain" that falls from the sky is mixed with unknown things, and people will awaken and gain power when they drink it.
Survivors can do this.
But is it possible...... Drink it or not, can you wake up?
After thinking like this, Wang Tu had the intention to be verified, so he asked, "Help me check how many people in this courtyard are awakened." β
The black watch on his wrist flashed with an imperceptible light, and then, in front of the retina of the king, a clear blue holographic screen suddenly appeared.
It is also the role of black technology.
It's kind of like the effect in a sci-fi movie, but it's cooler and cooler.
Suppressing the differences, Wang Tu set his eyes on the crowd.
On a few people, pale cyan light and shadow immediately appeared, which were specially marked.
In this way, the number of one-star awakened people is actually quite a lot.
Two young people, one middle-aged and one woman.
Among them, there are two kings who still know each other, it is Zhang Qiang, who is busy working, and the black boy in front of him.
Wouldn't it be such a coincidence, plus his own five one-star awakened people, all of whom have drunk rain?
It's not appropriate to ask them, but it's not hard to deduceβ
The survivors are affected by the rain and undergo some strange changes, thus gaining awakening.
In terms of strength, speed, healing ability, brain response and other physiological indicators, the awakened far exceed ordinary humans.
