Chapter 114: The Prophet as Teacher
"When one cultivates immortality to a certain level, a golden elixir will condense in the dantian, which is the source of the cultivator's cultivation. The same is true for those with special abilities, but this energy bead is located between the eyebrows. Some people call this location the forehead chakra."
"It is the energy source of zombies or mutants. The headaches that Li Zhuang and Liu Rui mentioned before due to excessive consumption of their superpowers are actually the pain inside. So no matter whether it is a zombie or a mutant, as long as this core is dug out, it will naturally become useless. So you'd better protect the crystal cores in your bodies."
"You are at a low level now, so you may not be able to feel it. Of course, it is difficult for ordinary psychics to feel it, but the sense of psychic abilities will be sharper." Lu Weiyi looked at Lu Xi through the rearview mirror, "Concentrate your mind and gather all your abilities at the center of your eyebrows and feel it."
Lu Xi was silent for a moment, his eyes gradually filled with surprise, "Yeah, yes, I can feel that there is something here."
"Well, it seems that there is also a connection to consciousness..." Lu Weiyi was thinking about how to explain, "If you have a space-related psychic, you can feel it. His sense of space is in the brain. When storing things, he says that he uses mental power to control it. It is also a manifestation of psychic energy. To be more specific, space actually exists in the crystal core."
"And this plant of mine..." Lu Weiyi thought for a long time before continuing, "You know that people who practice Taoism will have the so-called soul mark after they contract an animal. This plant gives me the same feeling. There is something it left here, and as I become stronger, it also becomes stronger. Occasionally, I can feel its emotions. This should be the so-called animism. When your level is higher, you should be able to feel the emotions of plants."
"If you want to fight, your level is low now, so you can try to release your superpowers first, that is, output your superpowers to weapons, which will save you a lot of effort when fighting against zombies. Then try to use your superpowers to enhance your physical fitness. After your superpowers are a little stronger, choose some vine-like plants to manipulate, such as green ivy or morning glory. These plants have vines themselves, and as long as the superpowers are continuous, it will be convenient to manipulate them from a distance," Lu Weiyi remembered that there was a very powerful plant-based superpower user in his previous life, who used a mutated ivy.
"Moreover, plant-based psychics are generally close to plants. You can enhance the characteristics of plants according to their different properties and use them for your own benefit. For example, the smell of oleander is poisonous, and people will feel dizzy if they smell it for a long time. You can enhance this characteristic so that people will faint with just a little bit of the smell." This is also the ability of the top plant-based psychics in the previous life.
Gu Qingji nodded when he heard this, "How to improve superpowers?"
"The process of continuous consumption and recovery is best done by fighting zombies. This is the most solid way." Zhuang Mingxu's abilities in his previous life were particularly solid. Even if he had the same abilities left, he could make perfect use of every bit of them without wasting them.
"Try to adapt to the output first," Lu Weiyi said, taking out a few cherry seeds from the space and handing them to Gu Qingji. A lettuce is definitely simpler than a tree.
"...You don't want to eat cherries, do you?" Gu Qingji looked at Lu Weiyi speechlessly.
"This is called rational use of supernatural powers. After all, all the vegetables and fruits will be gone after this snow." Lu Weiyi did not hide his thoughts at all.
Although Gu Qingji was not satisfied with his special ability, since it appeared, there was no reason to let it go. He pinched the cherry pit and began to stimulate its growth little by little.
"Brother, what about me? What's the use of my superpower?" When Lu Xi heard Lu Weiyi introduce various superpowers, he felt that his own was a bit useless.
"..." Thinking of Lu Xi's weak range, Lu Weiyi was silent for a moment. However, "Psychic abilities are actually quite useful. You can cover your body with mental power, which can conceal your breath and reduce your presence. Even if you stand in front of a zombie, the zombie won't notice you."
"You can also create a mental barrier. When you are attacked, this barrier can block some attacks for you. You can also use your mental power to probe into other people's bodies and directly destroy their crystal cores. As well as, you can probe into the space of space-related abilities to check what is in their space. If your level is higher than his, you can also take things from his space."
"So amazing." Lu Xi's eyes sparkled with joy, "Then can I see your space?"
"That's quite a bold idea," Lu Weiyi smiled and shook his head, "I am much higher level than you."
"Ahem... well, but I heard you say that your brain clearly remembered some things that you had forgotten before, so you can go deeper into this area of your brain, like... study something? What you didn't study before?" Lu Weiyi looked at Lu Xi.
"I studied weapons design and manufacturing," Lu Xi replied.
"Yes, it so happens that energy has changed nowadays. You can see what new energy weapons or new energy power generation can be developed with the energy in this crystal core. This is also a good research direction." It would be better to do the same as in the previous life. After all, Lu Xi was a nationally famous little genius in the previous life.
"Yeah, I understand," Lu Xiying decided to improve his own abilities to protect himself first.
The two people behind went to contact their superpowers. Lu Weiyi finally had time to take a look at Zhuang Mingxu who was sitting in the passenger seat. He asked in a low voice, "Are you uncomfortable from the bumpy ride? Do you want to change cars? Are you cold?" People with superpowers are more resistant to heat and cold than ordinary people. Lu Weiyi could not really understand the effect of temperature on Zhuang Mingxu.
"No, it's not cold." Zhuang Mingxu was relieved and sad to see him talking. "I wanted to ask you this morning, what are your plans after you go to the base?"
"Find a doctor for you." Before meeting Zhuang Mingxu, Lu Weiyi's goal was to find him and then do nothing. After meeting him, Lu Weiyi was focused on treating his leg.
"We can't rush this. We have to take our time. What are your immediate plans? Gathering supplies or developing a team?"
Lu Weiyi shook his head. He was not a person with ideals and goals. “What do you think?”
"I..." Zhuang Mingxu didn't know whether he should express his thoughts, but if he didn't say it, without Lu Weiyi, no one would listen to him.
"I heard Ning Yuan talk about the situation in Qingyuan Base, and I think we should set up a small team first, so that we can at least have a place in Qingyuan Base and not be too dispersed to be swallowed up by others. Then we can expand slowly, expand the team, and gain a certain voice, so that..."
"We won't live in Qingyuan in the future. We'll stay here for a while and then we'll leave," Lu Weiyi said without waiting for Zhuang Mingxu to finish his plan.
"Hmm...ah?" Zhuang Mingxu had always thought that he would settle down in Qingyuan. "Why? Are you going back to Kyoto?"
"Kyoto... Do you want to go back to Kyoto?" After all, Zhuang Mingxu's family is in Kyoto.
"I... hehe," Zhuang Mingxu looked at his legs and said in a low voice, "I won't go back in this condition. I'm sure they can take care of themselves."
"If you want to go back, I will go back with you," Lu Weiyi said.
Zhuang Mingxu: "No, we don't live in Qingyuan all the time. Where are you planning to go?"
"...We'll see when the time comes, maybe I'll stay in Qingyuan." Lu Weiyi was not sure whether the disasters that occurred in the Qingyuan base in his previous life would happen again. If not, staying in the Qingyuan base would not be bad.
Zhuang Mingxu looked at Lu Weiyi intently for a moment, but ultimately did not ask any more questions.
He already knew it. If he could have said it, Lu Weiyi would have said it long ago.
But he thought again, whether it was his understanding of supernatural powers or his knowledge of the end of the world, was this foreknowledge or...
…
Lu Weiyi was manipulating the small green branches to collect snow all the way, and a very obvious road mark was formed where he passed. Although it was unlikely that anyone would go out in such a heavy snow, who could guarantee that there would be no accidents? After Lu Weiyi turned around along the road for a few times, he went around into the marginal villages and towns. After making a big circle, he returned after nine o'clock in the evening.
Fortunately, the road was not very dark on the snowy night, and there were no zombies in this weather, so they were safe along the way.
After a day of familiarization and practice, Gu Qingji was already able to skillfully project his supernatural powers onto weapons, and he was also able to grow a cherry sapling to the height of a calf, which was happily stored in Lu Weiyi's space.
Although Lu Xi had been training, his foundation in this area was not very good, so the effect was not very obvious. On the way back, Lu Xi finally hesitated and said to Lu Weiyi, "Brother, what do you think about me doing research full-time?"
Meeting Lu Weiyi's gaze in the rearview mirror, he scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "I have always been interested in weapons research. I am also very interested in the new type of weapons you mentioned just now. I want to try it..."
"Sure." Lu Weiyi was worried that he would be so stubborn as to train in other areas. "When you return to Qingyuan, just tell me what research equipment you need. I will bring people to find it for you. You can just do research in the base and treat it as a paid scientific researcher."
"Yeah." Having found the right direction, Lu Xi nodded happily and said, "I will definitely try my best to research something in the future."
"Once you figure it out, we'll rely on you to gain a foothold in various major bases," Zhuang Mingxu teased him.
"Don't worry, Brother Mingxu, I have participated in some of the army's top weapons research projects, I am sure I can do it." Lu Xi's eyes lit up when he talked about his major.
"Then we'll just wait," Zhuang Mingxu said with a smile.
After chatting and laughing for a while, they went back, and when the car approached the gate, someone ran out.
"Lu Xiaoyi?" Xu Sa shouted from inside the door.
"It's me." Lu Weiyi opened the car window.
"Why did you come back so late? I was thinking about going out to look for you guys." Xu Sa complained and opened the door lazily.
"Big daddy, little daddy, Uncle Qingji, little uncle." Zhuang Aiyi stood obediently at the door and greeted the people getting off the car. His eager look made Lu Weiyi suddenly feel a little guilty, as if he shouldn't leave the child alone at home.
"Hey, I'll take you out some other day." Lu Weiyi carried Zhuang Mingxu down from the back berth.
"Yeah, okay." Zhuang Aiyi immediately became happy and jumped into the door behind Lu Weiyi.
