"boom--"
Wang Zheng dashed straight into the corner with lightning speed.
Chu Tianxing helped Chu Xiaoman up from her unconscious state.
Chu Xiaoman was still not fully awake. Her eyes were glazed over, and she was just giggling in a daze, muttering, "Angel, I saw an angel, hehehe..."
Wang Zheng scrambled out from among a pile of gym equipment, and seeing that Chu Tianxing was showing signs of another outburst, he quickly explained, "It's Holy Light! I added Holy Light! It's not what you see. This is a phenomenon caused by excessive vitality. I call it 'milk dizziness'!"
Under Chu Tianxing's skeptical gaze, Wang Zheng quickly came to the two of them and took out his sledgehammer.
He grabbed Chu Xiaoman's arm and pressed it against the hammer.
Chu Tianxing immediately felt like he'd been tricked. Just as he was about to make a move, he saw Chu Xiaoman's eyes begin to clear and her arm wound begin to heal rapidly. Only then did he suppress his urge to beat up Wang Zheng and ask with a stern face, "What exactly happened?"
The Wang Zheng of today is no longer the wise and sensible future hope of Jingnan that Chu Tianxing once knew. Instead, he is a despicable and shameless scumbag who drugged his own granddaughter!
Seeing Chu Tianxing's dark face and angry expression, Wang Zheng immediately stopped being cheeky and honestly told Chu Tianxing what he had discovered.
Chu Tianxing pondered for a moment, then said, "Try casting your Holy Light spell on me."
Without saying much, Wang Zheng raised his hand and unleashed more than a dozen beams of holy light at Chu Tianxing, enveloping him in a holy light.
At this point, Chu Xiaoman had gradually regained her senses. She still didn't understand what had happened before. Seeing Wang Zheng constantly casting holy light on her grandfather, she felt a little envious.
'I don't know how Wang Zheng practices. He always seems so carefree, but when something happens, he's more reliable than anyone else.'
As a healing-type Awakened, with such strong combat abilities and proficient spellcasting, she must have endured a lot of hardship behind the scenes, and practiced relentlessly when alone.
Despite her envy, Chu Xiaoman still admired Wang Zheng.
Seeing that Chu Tianxing remained unchanged under the beams of holy light, Wang Zheng couldn't help but feel disappointed. It seemed that he was far from being a match for such a powerful figure.
Chu Tianxing felt the surging life force flowing through his body and unconsciously clenched his fists. Under the clothes that Wang Zheng couldn't see, his muscles were already bulging, completely unlike the calm and collected demeanor he appeared to be.
Chu Tianxing raised his hand to stop Wang Zheng from continuing to cast the spell, and said calmly, "That's enough. I can already feel the rich life force being absorbed into my body. Wang Zheng, your ability is truly special."
"What Qian Ruibo said makes some sense. Although I am not a healing-type awakener myself, I have come into contact with quite a few healing-type awakeners over the years. No matter what level of ability they are, I have never seen anything like your Holy Light spell, which forcibly infuses life force into people."
Qian Ruibo's analogy is apt: the so-called vitality is the rapid recovery of injuries by stimulating the body's cellular activity through spiritual energy.
I remember the first time you told me you were a healing-type awakener. You said that your Holy Light spell could have an additional effect when cast on yourself, giving you the ability to reflect damage. At that time, I guessed that it was because the Holy Light spell activated your cells, thus causing the effect of reflecting damage.
Now, when you cast Holy Light on someone, due to individual differences, the effects may vary. If no mutation occurs, it could lead to an excess of life force, causing dizziness in the person.
Chu Tianxing spoke earnestly, while Wang Zheng was already mentally giving himself a huge thumbs up.
Damn, I'm a fucking genius!
I was so impressed that Old Man Chu was able to cover it up. I just made up an excuse for myself at the time, I never expected there was such a reason behind it. I was so proud of myself!
Moreover, according to Old Man Chu, no matter what new abilities are awakened in the future, all that is needed is to push them towards individualization and differentiation.
What? You're dizzy from milk?
No one gets dizzy from holy light; they must have a very weak constitution.
What? You're not only dizzy, but also trapped? That must mean your cells are malfunctioning.
Then why are your teammates okay?
That's because they've practiced with me for so long that they've become completely accustomed to my abilities.
As he pondered, Wang Zheng drifted into endless fantasies, a silly grin spreading across his face.
Chu Tianxing interrupted his fantasy impatiently: "I told you to go get a medical checkup, did you go?"
Wang Zheng replied, "I went there this morning. I spent an hour or so checking up on my mom. I had a great appetite and felt fantastic!"
Chu Tianxing, however, had a serious expression on his face.
Where did you get so many dialects and slang terms from!
Even though we've already checked, we still can't let our guard down, you know?
This is for your own good. After you awaken, your strength will increase, and no one can say for sure whether this is a good thing or a bad thing.
If you were to repeat your father's mistake, even if your life weren't in danger, you'd likely be destined to live an ordinary life. Remember, you must not be careless.
Although Wang Zheng knew in his heart that he definitely hadn't inherited his father's strength genes, he was still very touched by Chu Tianxing's deep care and immediately nodded.
Then, he casually asked the question he had asked Chu Tianxing before leaving for the training camp: "What exactly is my dad's condition? Can he recover?"
Hearing the two talk about other topics, Chu Xiaoman was also very curious. She knew that what she should do at this time was not to ask questions, but to silently watch the drama unfold.
Chu Tianxing thought for a moment: "How should I put it? It should be considered a genetic defect, yes, a genetic defect!"
Back then, it was a chaotic era, and the Awakened Ones had just emerged. Everything was still being explored.
In order to cope with the absolute disadvantage of humanity in the beast calamity, the country urgently selected a group of elite soldiers to undergo genetic modification.
Initially, the Gene Warrior program was very successful. Several individuals, including your father, were far stronger than the Awakened Ones at the time and made significant contributions to the Beast Disaster.
However, as time went on, more and more awakened individuals emerged, and their abilities grew stronger, leading to the gradual elimination of gene warriors.
In fact, at the very beginning, when the country discovered that intense battles would deplete the life force of the gene warriors, it decided to abandon the plan.
However, because the situation was so dire, all the soldiers were determined to die and asked to participate in the reform without hesitation, which gave us precious time to grow.
Therefore, this is not an injury, nor is there any question of recovery; it's simply an accelerated loss of vitality, indicating a defect in the body's genes.
