Living room.

Dean nodded slightly, and the glass in Hope's hand across the low table was suddenly pulled into his hand by an invisible force, so steady that not a drop of tea leaked.

Hope rubbed his cheeks vigorously and took a deep breath, "Hiding deep enough, I didn't even see that the two people under the same roof are superpowers." How did you get telekinesis? ”

"It's kind of genetic."

"Heredity? But Paqui said that your parents are ordinary people. ”

"Paqui didn't know the inside story, but when they were pregnant with me, they participated in the Hawkins Lab's brain domain expansion program, which had a profound impact on me." Dean said as he looked at the shadow beside him.

Jane's mother, Tyree, was also experimented with to give birth to her superpowered child. You two are really brothers and sisters. Hope reluctantly accepted this reality, but his face was still a little dazed, "So have you found out the whereabouts of your parents?" ”

"There are eyebrows." Dean nodded and looked at Jane's bedroom, "When I train Jane for another half a month to help her strengthen her self-preservation, I'll leave Hawkins Town to find someone." ”

"Leave? Do you know how dependent she is on you now! Hope looked displeased, "You're so ruthless that you just leave her and leave?" ”

"Don't get excited, man, I'm not leaving forever, I'll come back to see you once in a while." Dean was also a little helpless between his words, the lessons of Las Vegas had already made him determined not to stay in one place for too long, and he had been in Hawkins for more than a month. "What's more, I can't help it, Jane and I are both superpowers, and if we stay together for too long, it will inevitably induce the 'supernatural convergence law', which will affect her and you."

"What a mess of convergence laws, it's quite bluffing, let's go, I can take care of Jane alone, but in the next half a month, you will accompany her more."

"Yes."

"Now go back to your bedroom and leave me alone."

Hope was so shocked that he lit a cigarette he hadn't smoked for a long time, and sat by the window watching the night digest the information in his head.

……

The next evening.

Dean led Jane, dressed in a baseball jersey, into the yard with a bunch of assistive tools and turned on the lights in the hallway.

"Jane, remember last night's agreement, come and train your superpowers today." Dean put a walkie-talkie over Jane's shoulder.

The girl gritted her teeth and nodded.

"Now, let's test the telekinesis range first."

Dean placed a can 10 meters away from the other end of the yard, and let Simple try to hold the can with his mental strength to keep it away from his body.

Jane's eyes were fixed on the subject, and the can flew into the night sky with a swish, sliding a faint mark that was difficult to distinguish with the naked eye.

Dean hurriedly picked up the tape measure and chased him out while measuring it.

20 meters, 30 meters... 40 meters... 180 meters...

The can lingered 180 meters from Jane.

"Can you continue?" Dean asked over the walkie-talkie on his shoulder,

"I'll try."

The girl's stubborn voice came over the intercom.

The can continued to fly off into the distance, stopping at a distance of two hundred meters.

"Stop, wipe the nosebleed, rest and rest."

"Around 200 meters, it should be farther if Jane has an emotional outburst." Dean had to lament the importance of talent.

After he absorbed 0.5 spirit last time, the maximum telekinesis range of 'Shadow' expanded to 100 meters, which was only half of Jane's.

"Next, let's test the strength of our telekinesis."

A moon in the sky shone a hazy glow.

The nine-year-old girl stood in the quiet courtyard, her little white face tensed, her eyes sweeping over a pile of objects opposite.

From left to right, cans, pots, hardwood chairs, children's bikes, motorcycles, Blanco, and finally Hope's Chevrolet, who easily lifted the first four things at once and made them circle the yard.

Starting with motorcycles, the difficulty gradually increases.

She felt the pressure, and instead of standing there stupidly, she spread her hands left and right, hung back, and closed her fingers into eagle claws, grasping something in the air.

The motorcycle swayed and floated to a height of two meters in the air and circled, and in the sound of whirring through the air, the speed of the motorcycle was so fast that it formed a series of afterimages.

The grass and shrubs that filled the yard bent over.

"Moves much faster than me." Dean let go of God's perspective and observed, "It's a pity that it's not stable. ”

The motorcycle kept bobbing up and down.

Poof!

A black light flashed in mid-air.

The motorcycle hit the ground and smashed a large hole in the lawn.

Jane turned to Bronco, which weighed more than 1.5 tons, gritted her teeth, and reluctantly lifted the car into a mid-air circle.

But the speed of rotation is less than half that of a motorcycle.

"Jane, imagine the car as a terrifying monster in the dark realm of your mind, it's going to attack you, lift it up!"

"Quick!"

At Dean's urging, Jane looked at the second Chevrolet in horror, her taut little face began to twist, and her hungry wolf cub grinned like a wolf cub, and her mouth roared.

Burst.

The Chevrolet soars into the air, hovering side by side with Blanco.

The two steel shells, with a total weight of more than three tons, were lifted into the air by the little girl and slowly turned.

A few beads of sweat oozed down the skin of her smooth cheeks and dripped down her chin onto the grass.

Majestic telekinesis swirled between her and the car, curling her slightly longer hair and slapping her forehead mischievously, blowing her trouser legs bulging and tightening.

Circles of grass and dust rose from the ground and spread around her, forming green ribbons.

Dean saw that his eyes lit up, and the mental power of "Shadow" lifted a ton of heavy objects, while Jian had no problem holding up 3 tons of heavy objects.

If this mental power is developed in a targeted manner, the lethality is unimaginable!

……

Half a minute.

Jane's ruddy face turned snow-white from overexertion, panting, and she sat backwards.

The two cars hit the ground with a bang, grass clippings flying, and eight more large potholes appeared on the verdant lawn of the yard.

"What are you two doing, don't wreck my police car!"

Hope's nervous shouts immediately came from the window,

"Don't worry, we're taking care of your car."

Dean smiled, walked over to wipe Jane's sweat and nosebleeds, and handed her a glass of warm water.

"Me, what's my ability?"

"Cool, you're a genius, better than me."

The little girl who was praised squinted her eyes and smiled like a flower.

"But Jane, did you know that there are more than just two of us superpowers in this world." Dean is meaningful,

"Ah, other companions?" The little girl sat on the edge of the hallway and looked at Dean with her little head raised, with a hint of eagerness in her eyes, she couldn't wait to make new friends.

"No, they're not companions, most of them aren't friendly, they're not even human, they're more terrifying than monsters."

Monster?

Jane's body shuddered.

"They won't all like you and protect you as much as I do." Dean continued to threaten, "They are full of malice, they treat us as prey, food, enemies, and they will attack us, hurt us, and even kill us." You'll never be able to watch cartoons, eat your favorite pasta, and ride your bike. ”

The little girl's face was even more frightened.

"So, the first lesson for people like us to learn is not to obey orders, spy on others, and light light bulbs, but to use superpowers to protect ourselves," Dean said in a deep voice, wrapping her cold little hands with both hands, "Only by living can there be infinite possibilities!"

"Now I'm going to teach you how to use telekinesis to protect yourself..."

The girl looked dazed,

"The research institute in the lab never taught you?"

"No, they asked me to cooperate with the experiment and find someone."

"These bastards are completely raising you like a pig. Let's try the telekinesis armor first, release the telekinesis and gently wrap the body. Let's start with the feet..."

"I'm covered."

"Take a step forward and try."

Poof!

Jane fell straight to the face like a stick.

Dean held her shoulder in time,

"It's not that you have to wrap your feet together, you think of telekinesis as a pair of shoes... Wrap each foot below the ankle. Dean was amused and helpless,

"Okay, shoes, feet, I've got you covered!"

"OK, and then jeans... Clothes... Don't tie your hands and legs this time. ”

"Alright."

"Masks... Spectacles... hats..."

"I'm out of breath! Dean, help! ”

"God, leave a slit in your nose and mouth."

"I can't imagine how to stay."

“…”

Dean spent a full half hour.

The saliva was dry, and finally the little girl hurriedly learned the telekinesis armor, which was transparent and light, and would not affect the normal activities of the body in the slightest.

It's like a breeze around your body.

But the intensity is not weak at all.

Dean tried to attack the little girl with cans, knives, and baseball bats, but was all kept out.

Jane was unscathed, and she didn't feel any pain.

After a few more days of training, you will be able to resist firearms.

In addition, although Jane's telekinesis is strong, her control is extremely weak, and she is unable to maintain her armor for nearly an hour like Dean Manipulating Shadow.

In two minutes, Jian Zhou's telekinetic armor automatically collapsed.

……

"It's good to be able to last so long for the first time," Dean rubbed her somewhat reluctant face, "and then we'll try another mode of defense—the telekinesis barrier." ”

"You've shaped telekinesis into a giant eggshell, have you ever seen an eggshell?"

"Uh-huh."

"The eggshell covers your body, and you can control its thickness and intensity at any time by further instilling and withdrawing it... But there are gains and losses, and the defense and range of the telekinesis barrier are larger than armor, but they are bulky and inconvenient to move. ”

Jane, who was standing in place with her eyes closed and raising her hands to weave eggshells, suddenly turned pale, revealing a suffocating and uncomfortable expression,

"Dean, I can't breathe!"

"Why don't you learn your lesson? Leave a few breathing holes for the shell! By the way, do you have to raise your hands when using telekinesis? ”

"I—my hands are moving on their own." Jane moved her little finger innocently,

"You're not Italian, and you have to bring hand movements to release your telekinesis? You have to adapt to the no-action release, otherwise the bad guys can pre-empt based on your moves. ”

……

Two hours later, Jane controlled her little hand that had nowhere to put it, and learned to release the telekinesis armor and barrier with a blank face, and she was basically able to succeed in less than four seconds.

It was far from Dean's instantaneous summoning, and he could only train slowly.

……

"These two defenses, practice more every day when you are idle at home and bored, which can greatly enhance the control of telekinesis."

Jane's eyes sparkled and she nodded heavily.

Dean said with relief, "Next, I'll teach you another way to escape—"

In the little girl's curious eyes, Dean in the middle of the courtyard snapped his fingers, and the shadow of the past behind him suddenly activated his telekinesis, supporting him to slowly rise from the ground.

Flew to a height of five meters in the air.

Dean took a deep breath, felt the cold wind and cool air in the sky, and looked down at the dark forest below, looking at the girl who looked over, and smiled slightly.

Jane's neck was sour, her mouth was O-shaped, but her eyes contained a strange brilliance.

"How did you become a bird?"

"Mental effect. Listen, and imagine telekinesis as a cloud that drags you upward. ”

"I—I can't do it!" Jane shook her head hurriedly,

"You can! Believe me! ”

Jane took a deep breath and looked at her feet.

One second, two seconds, three seconds.

At one point, she stiffened and slowly rose off the ground, but kept jolting and shaking, like a child who had just learned to walk.

Her expression became very exciting, and her mouth kept gasping in surprise.

"I'll fly, Dean!"

“Woh!”

She spread her hands and feet apart, trying to maintain her center of gravity, and flew in front of Dean with a smug and cheerful smile.

But she apparently rejoiced too soon, and her feet trembled at the same time.

The whole person suddenly lost his balance, his head was planted down, his feet were raised back, and he was suspended in the air in a funny posture under his head and feet.

Like a toddler astronaut who loses gravity and body control inside a space capsule!

"I can't control it, I can't move!"

She was in a hurry and her hands and feet moved wildly, but her limbs were too stiff and messy, and her body spun in place like a spinning top, unable to return to her normal static posture.

"The more nervous you are, the bigger the problem, relax your body!"

"Take a deep breath, inhale and exhale."

Dean circled around her and rubbed her chin, her face suddenly revealed,

"My balance is so poor that I can't maintain my normal posture in mid-air."

Yes, Dean was able to easily fly with the help of Shadow's telekinesis, and that was because of his inhuman agility and super balance, which allowed him to perfectly adjust his body posture in a weightless state with his feet suspended in the air.

If the average telepathic wants to fly as much as he wants, he must go through a rigorous and lengthy training.

Dean flew over to help Jane, and the girl's little hands trembled and pulled him,

"Dean, am I dreaming? I can really fly! ”

"It's not a dream, do you like it?"

"Uh-huh," Jane looked at the lawn beneath her feet, and the smaller cars and bicycles, her eyes shining with excitement and joy.

In Hawkins' lab, superpowers are like a curse and a toxin to her, with nosebleeds every time they are used, always accompanied by painful experiments.

She has always had a faint rejection of superpowers in her heart, and she is extremely reluctant to use them every time.

But here, for the first time, she gets pleasure from her superpowers.

Superpowers seem to have gone from being a curse to a blessing, a beneficial talent!

Dean glanced at the skyrocketing progress of the event and nodded, "Take my hand and fly slowly with me." ”

The night was hazy, under the moonlight.

One by one, two figures began to float slowly around the forest.

Dean continued to teach her how to maintain her balance in mid-air step by step, as she did when she first taught her to ride a bike.

Progress is very slow.

It wasn't until ten o'clock in the evening that Jane could barely maintain her balance and float still in mid-air.

But as soon as she moves a centimeter, she immediately looks foreign.

Despite this, she was already blushing with joy, and she was screaming with excitement from time to time throughout the process.

"It's almost today, Jane, let's go down, let's continue training tomorrow."

Dean sensed that Shadow's 60 minutes of existence were running out, and returned home with the little girl who was excited and tired.

Mentoring this newcomer is also a great gain for himself, he can lay a solid foundation, further refine the manipulation of telekinesis, and obtain more ideas for the use of telekinesis.

"Have such fun, when are you going to bring me one?" Hoppe, who was peeping by the window, closed the curtains, and looked at it with brass bell-like eyes, with a hint of jealousy in his expression.

"Come together tomorrow and fly together." Jane walked over and grabbed Hope's big rough hand, and the sheriff was overjoyed for a moment, and touched her little head with a loving smile on his face,

"I'm just an ordinary person, I don't have superpowers, I can only cheer you up. Are you tired today, take a shower and go to bed early, what do you want to eat tomorrow morning? ”

"I want hot dogs, milk oats!"

……

Before going to bed, Dean went to Jane's bedroom and taught her a portion of the Red Dragon Meditation, but it was only a simplified version, without the difficult yoga possessions.

After all, Jane's current physical fitness is too poor to do a single movement, and she can only perform the most basic supporting breathing and visualization.

……

"Relax your body to the most comfortable, stress-free posture, breathe in for three seconds, hold your breath for four seconds, and exhale for seven seconds..."

"Imagine sitting on a vast grassland, looking up at the night sky and the stars twinkling."

"There's a reddish planet that grabs your attention..."

"You feel the special magnetic field of this star, and you and it attract each other closer and closer."

"Your spirit, your will, your body, everything visible and invisible, is drawn by it with beams of starlight."

"Its atmosphere and gravity filter out the impurities that come from you."

"The essence is returned to you..."

Dean whispered.

The little girl covered with the quilt closed her eyes, breathing softly, and the soft light illuminated the healthy flush of her face and the blinking eyelashes. Then, a faint snoring sounded.

"Uh..."

Meditation has not yet started, and you fall asleep?

Dean reluctantly put the quilt on her.

…

Then, half a month passed quickly, and the time came to one morning in early September.

This time.

In addition to Dean's own training every day, and the news of finding No. 8 Carly, it is a long telepathic teaching to Jane, and the little girl may have felt something, she studied hard and seriously, and successfully mastered the trick of telepathic defense, and was able to summon armor and barriers in less than a second.

She can barely maintain a balanced telekinetic flight, not fast at two or three meters per second, but her potential is endless, and sooner or later she will surpass Dean.

In addition, Jane learned a way to attack with telekinesis, because directly using telekinesis to attack enemies is inefficient and too wasteful.

Dean has carefully selected a special weapon for her - throwing knives.

Her huge telekinesis can manipulate three flying knives at once, and all of them accelerate to 170m/s, easily penetrating the vital points of the human body.

It's just that Dean has given her a ban and can't do anything to living creatures at the moment.

In addition, Jane was finally able to barely enter a meditative state after two months of training, but she could not see the "red dragon", and she would fall into a deep sleep after ten minutes at a time.

Meditation has brought Jane great benefits, improving the negative symptoms of her use of superpowers... Performing mild telekinetic behaviors, such as manipulating throwing knives, will no longer cause nosebleeds.

Meditation also stabilized her spirit a lot, and she was in a calm and happy state every day, full of energy, waiting for Dean and Hope to fulfill their promise to see their mother for half a month.

……

It's not just Jane who grows.

Dean, who is in charge of teaching, has also gained that his ability to repeatedly review skills and manipulate shadows has been further exercised, and he can accomplish greater goals with less mental power.

Most intuitively, his maximum flight speed rose to seven meters per second.

In addition, various abilities have also been trained.

Fighting Lv3 (90→100/400)

Shoot Lv3 (330→340/400),

Shadow of the Past lv2 (50→61/300)

Red Dragon Meditation Lv2 (240→280/300)

Mimic LV1(170→200/200)

System Capabilities:

Infernal Shuttle Lv0 (Charge Progress: 98/100)

……

"Almost."

Dean glanced at Hope and Jane, who were chatting in the ancestral house, and drove the car into the woods where no one was around, staring at the simulated +.

Upgrade.

Imitation lv1→ lv2 (0/300).

Blood replication time: 4 hours → half an hour.

Maximum duration of mimetic form: 4 days → half a month.

Mock cooldown: 4 days→ 1 day.

You gain 1 Stat.

Physique: 16.1→17.1.

The sunlight shining through the car window illuminated Dean's reddened cheeks, his temples bulging high, and the veins and tendons in his neck bulging out unusually outward, like hemp ropes twisted repeatedly.

The muscles in his body contracted as if they were alive.

Poof!

Poof!

His heart was beating violently, as if it was about to jump out of his chest, pumping flame-hot blood throughout his body, and Dean felt as if he was locked in an invisible furnace.

The intense heat that surged all over his body caused bursts of white hot steam to emerge from his standard head.

The internal organs, skin and bones are quietly strengthened and strengthened under the support of heat.

Five minutes later.

Call... Suck...

Dean's tense body as if it were a piece of iron relaxed, sweat crawling all over his handsome cheeks.

He wiped away his sweat and felt the powerful heartbeat.

Suddenly clenched his fist, and the vigorous vitality flowed in the veins.

He took out a knife from the space and slashed it at his forearm!

Poof...

The tip of the knife left only a faint white mark, but the skin could not be cut.

"Now it's hard for ordinary people to hurt me with cold weapons."

In addition, after this simulacrum upgrade, the cooldown time has been drastically shortened to 1 day, and the maximum duration has skyrocketed to half a month.

This meant that Dean could transform almost non-stop, and he had become a true man of a thousand faces, and it would be much easier to do something dangerous in the future.

So proficiency increases efficiency?

……

on the glass of the car window.

The skin on that Asian face swelled like a balloon, and the soft plasticine wriggled and deformed.

"Shhhh The pain of the deformation was lessened. No, it's my tolerance for pain that has increased. ”

"And the transformation activation time has been shortened."

Five seconds.

Dean transforms into a blond, blue-eyed, high-nosed, deep-set Suren, one of the spies he's ever killed.

Dean watched the watch and proficiency change, and from time to time took out snacks from the space and stuffed them into his mouth to replenish the energy consumed.

Two hours later.

Dean frowned.

"There's less proficiency."

After only half an hour, the skill proficiency has increased by 1 point to lv2 (1/300) and is motionless.

"So now you can only spend a maximum of half an hour to gain 1 proficiency point per transformation?" Dean's face was gloomy, and the initial excitement faded.

The cooldown time of the mimetic is one day, the fastest can be transformed every two days, and the maximum number of fifteen proficiency points can be obtained by transforming fifteen times a month.

"The next time the simulacrum is upgraded, it will be 20 months later."

"But this is also normal, such an ability to defy the sky, the difficulty will naturally become more and more difficult."

……

Sort out the harvest of ability upgrades.

Dean turned his gaze to the system: Caged Bird - 138 percent.

You can submit at any time.

"Tomorrow, take Jane to visit Tyre, harvest the last wave of event progress, and then withdraw the reward."

"Then it's time for me to go."
