people
In a ward of X City Central Hospital.
The black-haired boy sat hunched on a low chair beside the bed, carefully lifted the right hand of the sleeping woman, and put it between his palms. He supported his elbow on the edge of the bed, carefully felt the lines on the woman's hand, and his eyes caressed the pale face of the person on the bed inch by inch.
"Mom, I will try my best to complete the task, and then find you the best healing psychic. You must hold on." As he spoke, a sense of sadness welled up in his heart, and his eyes, as clear as a spring, were filled with moisture.
As if he didn't want his sobs to disturb his mother's sleep, he put his hands back into the quilt, then stood up, gently opened the door and left the ward.
Lu Quezhi looked at himself in the bathroom mirror, took a deep breath, and raised his hand to remove the wig. His own hair was already very sparse, hanging limply in clumps, and a large area of pale blue scalp could be seen on the top of his head, so he had no choice but to wear a wig.
His hair started falling out in large clumps after awakening his powers, but someone told him it was a common complication. The same thing happened to his skin, which was becoming increasingly dull and yellow day by day.
Lu Quezhi suddenly realized that he could not hesitate any longer. His mother's illness worsened too quickly, far beyond his expectations. Now, only a healing psychic of level 5 or above, with regenerative abilities, could save her life.
Therefore, he had to quickly complete the training and begin his official mission. He clenched his fists and silently made up his mind.
In City A, there is a villa hidden somewhere among the rolling mountains. The room closest to the foot of the mountain is filled with warm yellow light. There are several people sitting or standing on the sofa, at the wooden table, and even at the corner of the stairs. They look young, and Li Ming and Morrill are among them.
"So, you two deliberately skipped the training and have been hanging around in the association for so long. Have you gathered any useful information?" The speaker was a petite blonde girl, her azure eyes fixed on Mollier, who was leaning on the left side of the sofa. "Sister Mo, I think the energy absorbed by your barrier is a waste. Why not give it to me?"
"Maya, be careful with your words. They have been wearing the barrier for the future of the family. Naturally, they follow the orders of their elders on where to use the absorbed energy. This is an honor." The man at the corner of the stairs, whose expression could not be seen clearly, refuted.
Li Ming sat on the right side of the sofa, his left hand swung back and rested on the backrest. He ruffled his spiky hair with his right hand, his tone surprisingly lacking any of his usual irritability. "We've been in there for so long, and we've already completed what they instructed us to do. But there's a group of new psychics who are quite interesting lately."
The people present are all the younger generation of the most powerful families in District 8. All of them are high-quality psychics who are awakened at birth. Because they have huge resources to support them, their abilities should not be underestimated even if they are young.
Maya said disdainfully, "You're just a newcomer, at most level 2. What's there to be interested in? I mean, you've been in that kind of environment for too long, and your standards have narrowed considerably."
Molly didn't want to say much. Recalling Shi Youchen's performance during the first practical class and hearing Maya's tone, she sarcastically said, "Indeed, both of them are Level 1, but they're both naturally awakened, and there aren't more than three-digit numbers of them in the world each year." She paused, as if thinking of something. "Oh, my sister is 16 this year, and I remember her last test result was Level 4. She's been there for two years now. She really needs to work hard."
In fact, it is rare for a psychic to be promoted to level 4 at the age of 16, but Morrill really can't stand her arrogant look and always wants to curb her arrogance.
Maya suddenly jumped up from her chair, very dissatisfied: "What's wrong with me being level 4? Aren't you only level 2? How dare you mock me?"
Li Ming frowned upon hearing this and was about to explode when the man at the corner of the stairs spoke to ease the atmosphere, "They've both been wearing the barrier for seventeen years. It's been so difficult for them to train properly, and reaching Level 2 is a remarkable achievement. I just don't know when they can be removed."
"Lu Zhiqi, stop being so hypocritical. I'm afraid you just hope that they will never remove the barrier in their lifetime." Maya was young and attacked indiscriminately when she got angry.
At this moment, the door of the house was opened with a "bang", and no one was outside. The people in the house were not surprised at all, and they all stopped talking and stared at the place waiting for someone to come.
Ten seconds later, a man appeared. He had black hair with purple highlights, a silver earring in his left ear, and was wearing a black windbreaker. He had his hands in his pockets and a smile on his face. "Hey, you don't look too well. What are you discussing?" It was the man who had fallen asleep on the bench in the association cafeteria that day.
The four were not surprised to see him, because this guy always acted like this. He always made some big noise before appearing on stage to let people know that he, Ying Yungui, was about to make a grand appearance.
Lu Zhiqi spoke first: "Li Ming just mentioned that he met an interesting new psychic during the association's training." Originally, Ying Yungui was three years younger than him, and he wanted to act like an older brother in front of him, but when he thought that Ying Yungui was already a level 6 psychic who surpassed them all, he lost that ambition.
"Interesting person?" Ying Yungui strode to the center of the sofa and sat down, crossing his legs. With a flick of his index finger, the door closed, completely isolating the whistling wind. He raised an eyebrow and looked at Li Ming and Morrill. "I remember this group of new recruits also participated in the Z City rescue mission and encountered a secondary incident?" He asked knowingly, trying to test their attitudes.
Morrill: "They were two of the only three people who survived the secondary incident without any casualties."
"That's pretty good luck. What kind of attribute is that?" Ying Yungui remembered that day when he found a secluded place with the fragrance of flowers to take a rest. He accidentally overheard a conversation between a man and a woman. He felt that the boy's voice was clear and cold, which made him calm down. He wondered how strong he was.
"One is from the healing department, the other is from the biology department. The one from the healing department is quite brave." Li Ming was referring to the day when Shi Youchen tried dual control in the first class, but Ying Yungui obviously misunderstood what he meant.
"Courageous? A courageous healing type is quite rare." Ying Yungui narrowed his eyes. Li Ming naturally didn't know what he was thinking. He added, "She's also very good-looking."
Ying Yungui had already made up his mind about this woman, a bold and healing beauty with a cool voice. He was now very interested in her. Her cool voice was soothing, her boldness made her easy to act, and she was a perfect fit for the healing element. Furthermore, she was a delight to the eyes.
Ying Yungui suddenly stood up, startling the people around him. He decided to go and meet his ideal mission partner.
Looking at his back as he left inexplicably with a strange smile on his face, the remaining people's faces were filled with speechlessness.
On the second day, in the control room of the association's information department, Yan Zhiyuan and Lin Zhouze stood on either side of Shi Youchen, observing the scene in the test room displayed on the screen while Shi Youchen explained.
"The testing method for this visual enhancement psychic is based on visual distance, ability to distinguish reality from illusion, dynamic testing, and differentiation of color elements. Don't be fooled by the fact that he is just standing there with a hood on. In fact, the hood can simulate various scenarios. In short, it is very powerful." Lin Zhouze talked incessantly.
Yan Zhiyuan was more focused on carefully observing the test-taker's various subtle movements and occasionally giving instructions.
After the last tester left, Yan Zhiyuan said to Shi Youchen, "You can go now."
......
Shi Youchen stood quietly outside the testing room, neither moving nor making a sound. Before him stood a man, a handsome but seemingly mentally unstable man.
Because this person was blocking the door to the testing room, he tilted his mouth towards him, but the strength was not controlled well, revealing six shining upper teeth: "Hey beautiful, want to complete the task together?"
Lin Zhouze and Yan Zhiyuan didn't see anyone entering the test room for a long time. Fearing that something might have happened on the way, they hurriedly left the control room and ran towards the test room. Unexpectedly, they saw a scene outside the door that was more terrifying than any accident - Ying Yungui leaned forward slightly, lowering his entire face to Shi Youchen's line of sight, tilted his head to the right, and stared into the other's eyes.
Shi Youchen didn't retreat even a step, because the man's leaning forward and his incomprehensible smile were too provocative. Backing off would undoubtedly be a sign of weakness, so he stared back motionlessly and said, "No, I'm afraid I'm stupid."
"Ying Yungui?!" Yan Zhiyuan didn't expect that this Buddha would actually come to his door, so he spoke out to stop the situation from getting worse.
Ying Yungui tilted his head at the sound, and when he saw the person coming, he glanced at Shi Youchen with an ambiguous look, then turned around and laughed heartily, opening his arms as he walked towards Yan Zhiyuan, "Hey, Old Yan, it's been a long time since we last met, and you're still so expressionless, hehe." Yan Zhiyuan pulled Lin Zhouze behind him, pushed forward with his palm to press against Ying Yungui's approaching shoulder, preventing him from getting any closer, and said sternly, "Don't be ridiculous, what are you doing here?"
Ying Yungui was originally waving his arms, but seeing how serious he was, and the person he was protecting behind him, he coughed and put his hands down, straightened his clothes, and said seriously, "I'm here to find my mission partner. Here, it's him."
Shi Youchen:?
Lin Zhouze:? ?
Yan Zhiyuan: ???
Yan Zhiyuan felt that he had not seen his former teammate for a long time. It seemed that he had grown up but also became a lot dumber: "Do you know who he is? He is your mission partner. Who dares to be your mission partner?" Lin Zhouze popped up from behind: "That's right, do you know him? He is your mission partner." After saying this, he shrank back behind Yan Zhiyuan, because his intuition told him that this man was not to be trifled with.
Ying Yungui touched the earring on his left ear, then lit up his bracelet and pulled up the "Conclusion Report of the Second Explosion Incident at the Z City Emergency Center." He looked at Yan Zhiyuan with a look of as if he was a fool and said, "I know, Shi Youchen. He was a level 1 healing type last time. He's the one I'm looking for."
Shi Youchen looked at the three people with a strange atmosphere over there and decided to take the opportunity to go in and complete the test.
Yan Zhiyuan was even more speechless: "You knew he was level 1 and you still went looking for him. Do you want to die or do you want him to die?"
Ying Yungui: "Why shouldn't I want to live? I still want to be the president. Why shouldn't I want him to live? I have no grudge against him. Level is not that important, it can all be cultivated. The key is that he is a brave and healing person!" And he looks better than he thought!
Yan Zhiyuan: ...
Lin Zhouze: ...
Seeing that the two of them didn't react, Ying Yungui glanced back at the testing room and said meaningfully, "And I'm afraid he won't be level 1 anymore soon."
