Chapter 114
"But we can't just let it go!" Yan Hong said, her hands on her hips, "You must pay a heavy price for your despicable behavior of deceiving your companions!"
Lu Shiyu sighed and asked helplessly, "Okay, then what terrible price do you want me to pay in order to forgive my terrible deception?"
"Wait a minute, we need to discuss this."
Yan Hong turned around and discussed in whispers with Shaoxing Yang and Chen Yunliang. During the discussion, Shaoxing Yang occasionally looked up to see if she was peeking at him.
Lu Shiyu could only wait for the three of them to discuss the result, when Tang Zeyu came over.
"What did the base commander say to you?"
"Well, it's nothing really, just chatting."
After filtering out some useless information, Lu Shiyu said, "If I have to say there's something to it, it's probably that we found out we knew each other before."
"You guys knew each other before?" Tang Zeyu asked, "You've never been out of the Dawn Base, so how did you get to know someone at the Dawn Base?"
Lu Shiyu smiled and said, "That's a long story."
"We've decided!"
Shao Xingyang pointed at Lu Shiyu and said, "You must let us study your special abilities!"
"How do you want to study?"
"I don't know. Think about how else you can use your special ability."
Lu Shiyu put his hands together and created two black holes facing each other. Then one black hole was responsible for spitting out and the other black hole was responsible for receiving, forming an endless cycle, just like a hat trick.
"Does that count?"
Chen Yunliang: "I feel like she can't think of any other way to develop her special abilities."
Yan Hong: "But it's such a waste to use such a great ability just to carry things."
Shao Xingyang nodded vigorously and said, "That is to say, this ability has room for improvement. It is completely overused now."
Lu Shiyu: "...So my ability is really unfair to me."
Tang Zeyu thought for a moment and said, "Lu Shiyu doesn't usually have to participate in battles, and he's been hiding his abilities, so it's normal that he hasn't developed them much."
Lu Shiyu felt that it would be better not to help her say this, but when she really thought about what other uses her special abilities could have, she really couldn't think of one.
Can she still participate in battles with this ability?
"Of course you can," Yan Hong said seriously, "as long as you know how, any ability can have offensive power."
Lu Shiyu said doubtfully, "But my ability can't affect other people at all."
Her special space cannot accommodate living things, so it is not feasible to put the enemy into the space.
Chen Yunliang pushed up his glasses and asked, "Can your space accommodate superpowers?"
"Why?"
Lu Shiyu had never thought about this. Although she had just tried to use the black hole to transmit Chen Yunliang and Tang Zeyu's superpowers to different locations, she really didn't know whether it was feasible to store other people's superpowers.
"I'll try."
Lu Shiyu opened a black hole, and in order to avoid accidental injury to Lu Shiyu, he deliberately opened the black hole a little bigger, and then asked Shao Xingyang to stand opposite and launch water balls.
Chen Yunliang said to Shaoxing Yang: "Remember to use more force, otherwise it might fall apart in the middle."
"Ah?" Shao Xingyang asked doubtfully, "What if we hit Lu Shiyu?"
"Then you're done, so hit it right."
Shaoxing Yang: "..."
Lu Shiyu nervously waited for Shao Xingyang's attack. The water ball quickly condensed in the air and began to rotate at high speed in Shao Xingyang's palm, as if it would lose control and be thrown out at any time.
"OK!"
The water ball shot straight towards Lu Shiyu's face, so fast that it formed a water column. Lu Shiyu maintained the posture of the open black hole and subconsciously closed her eyes nervously, but the water ball did not hit her at all. Instead, it was swallowed by the black hole. Ignoring the speed and attack damage, it disappeared on the spot as soon as it entered the black hole.
Lu Shiyu opened his eyes and closed the black hole, then he breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, her ability can really absorb supernatural powers.
Shao Xingyang and the other two excitedly ran over and asked, "How do you feel?"
"Well, I don't feel anything."
Lu Shiyu opened his hands and then closed them and said, "I didn't feel anything unusual. It felt pretty much the same as usual."
Chen Yunliang: "Then let's proceed to the next step and release the water ball in your supernatural space."
Lu Shiyu was unsure, but he still raised his hand and opened the black hole towards the stone statue beside him.
The next moment, a column of water shot out from Lu Shiyu's black hole and hit the stone statue. The stone statue exploded instantly after being hit by the water column, and the rubble scattered all over the ground.
Lu Shiyu didn't expect that he could actually release the water column intact, and it was so powerful.
The other three were already clapping and celebrating.
"Cool!" Yan Hong said excitedly, "Lu Shiyu, your ability is amazing!"
Shaoxing Yang: "Yes! It's exactly the same as the one I typed directly!"
Chen Yunliang seemed very satisfied with the results.
Tang Zeyu, who was watching the experiment on the other side, also said: "It seems that your ability is much stronger than you thought."
Lu Shiyu looked at the small black hole in the palm of her hand and suddenly felt that her special ability was a little unfamiliar. She thought that her special ability might have more uses and would not be limited to the basic operation of storing items.
As they were discussing, the window of a nearby building was flung open, and the person inside angrily shouted out, "Who's making such a fuss outside so late at night instead of going home? Can you please have some manners?"
But when he looked carefully, he didn't see any human figure. Not only did he not see any people, he also found a stone statue not far away. It was fine when he returned home, but now for some reason a large piece of its head was broken off, and the ground was littered with small stones.
While he was still searching for the murderer in vain, Lu Shiyu and others had already hidden in the alley, which was just out of his sight.
After making sure that they were not seen, they breathed a sigh of relief. Lu Shiyu suggested that they go back first and study the supernatural powers tomorrow.
"But we damaged someone's public building, so don't we have to pay for it?"
"Let Chen Yunliang pay for it. His family is rich, and he was the one who came up with the idea."
Chen Yunliang's eyelids twitched, and he said, "My family is rich but we live in the Dawn Base. This is the Dawn Base. I am as poor as you."
The few of them were talking as they walked all the way back to the hotel, and happened to see the hotel owner preparing to lock the door.
The innkeeper saw several figures from afar and hurried to close the door, but was startled when Yan Hong suddenly appeared in front of the door and grabbed the door lock.
"Why did you lock the door? Can't you see we haven't come back yet?"
Shaoxing Yang put his hands behind his head nonchalantly and said without hesitation, "I think he saw us and wanted to lock us out on purpose."
When the hotel owner saw that it was them, he finally felt relieved, and was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat.
"I was so scared! I thought someone else was coming to stay here, but it turned out to be you guys."
Chen Yunliang, Lu Shiyu, and Tang Zeyu, who were walking behind, slowly caught up. Tang Zeyu couldn't help but be curious when he heard this: "Again? Is anyone coming to check in at night?"
According to what Zhang Hezhi said before, if the people at the Dawn Base wanted to stay in a hotel, they would prepare it in advance and would not look for a place to stay at night. Not to mention it was still the middle of the night. Apart from outsiders like them, who else would stay in a hotel at night instead of going home?
The hotel owner said with a worried look on his face, "Yes, he just arrived yesterday. He doesn't look like a good person, and he hasn't come down yet. It's really unlucky. Why do I always get guests who are not nice to me lately..."
After the innkeeper finished speaking, he remembered that these people were right next to him and quickly shut up. However, they didn't mind and were instead a little curious.
"I thought the locals would go home to sleep at night and we would be the only ones hanging around outside in the middle of the night."
However, this little episode did not attract the attention of many people. It was soon forgotten by them after a busy day. They returned to their rooms and fell asleep.
The next morning
Lu Shiyu woke up Yanhong while yawning.
"Wake up, it's time for breakfast."
Yan Hong simply turned over, wrapped the quilt around herself, and turned herself into a sleeping caterpillar.
"Let me sleep again..."
She closed her eyes and fell asleep before she could finish her words. Lu Shiyu tried to wake her up several times but failed. He had to get up himself and prepare to bring breakfast back for the lazy person.
As soon as the door opened, Tang Zeyu from next door happened to come out, but he was the only one there.
Lu Shiyu looked in from outside and asked, "Are they still sleeping?"
"Yeah," Tang Zeyu nodded and said, "They can get up early on normal days, but once they get to a comfortable place, they will instinctively stay in bed. Don't worry about them."
"Yeah, let them sleep well."
Just as the two were standing at the door chatting, the door 202 opposite also opened.
"What a crappy place! They don't even provide three meals a day, and we have to buy them ourselves."
"Do you have any money?"
"No, just go out and find someone who looks rich, steal his money and then don't save him."
Bayard pushed open the door and saw Tang Zeyu and Lu Shiyu head-on. He froze in place for a moment, and Neil, who was behind him, bumped into them without realizing it.
Neil thought Bayard would scold him as a fool, but after waiting for a long time, Bayard did not deliver the goods. Neil felt something was wrong and when he stuck his head out, he saw the two people opposite.
"You...you are the exploration team!"
Neil's shout woke up the three people who were still in a daze, and also called out the captain who was still tidying up the room.
Bayard reacted quickly, summoning a blood-red scimitar and staring at the two men warily.
Lu Shiyu looked at the person opposite him in a daze, and for a moment he wondered if he hadn't woken up at all and was still dreaming. Tang Zeyu on the other side had already picked up his weapon.
The captain pushed Neil who was blocking the door and walked forward. When his eyes met Tang Zeyu, he was stunned, and then he laughed.
"I never thought I'd meet you here again. It's really a blessing from heaven!"
Lu Shiyu stared at the three people opposite him warily, but felt a little strange when he saw that the captain did not take action after making such harsh words.
They can't be afraid that a fight here will damage the house. Do they have such a strong sense of public morality?
Since the captain was slow to act, Neil chose to hide behind. Only Bayard showed the intention to attack, but he was afraid that there might be other people lying in ambush around, so he did not dare to attack alone.
The situation was inexplicably deadlocked. The captain angrily asked Tang Zeyu: "What are you saying? Are you mute?"
Tang Zeyu rolled his eyes: "Oh, what a coincidence."
Lu Shiyu couldn't help laughing, and although he quickly adjusted himself, the three of them had already heard it.
Faced with the opponent's provocative behavior, the captain finally couldn't help but want to take action. When the captain pulled the long sword out of the scabbard, the situation instantly became tense.
In this tense atmosphere, someone's stomach suddenly started to rumble.
