Chapter 981: Shut up!
"No rush, go sit over there and wait. Lao Xiao, don't be impatient either. This medicine won't work that quickly. Didn't we already say it's been purified and is much milder? So it won't have a reaction so fast." Chief Long, who was standing to the side, smiled and sent the father and son away.
Gu Yin was also helpless. Xiao Sheng was special, but not so special that he would die before the medicine even arrived!
Even veteran leaders have a less-than-calm side, which is rare.
Upon hearing this, the old commander coughed lightly and said, "Isn't his constitution special? What a waste of Ah Yin's excellent medicine!"
Xiao Sheng: "......??? Right, right, what a waste!" He's his own son, isn't he?! So infuriating! I can't argue with him, and I can't even hit him!
The slightly tense atmosphere quickly dissipated, and everyone relaxed.
Xiao Sheng sat down to the side and waited. Gu Ran stayed by his side and watched over him. The others went about their business.
"Gu Ran, what kind of special abilities do you think I have?"
Gu Ran shook her head: "I don't know. You already have spiritual energy in your body. I don't know what kind of changes will occur."
Xiao Sheng thought about it and agreed: "Then tell me, is it possible that I don't have any superpowers?"
"meeting."
"..." Xiao Sheng choked.
"No, can't you say something nice? I'm at a crucial moment right now, a little nervous. Say something nice to put me at ease. I've been with you guys for so long, haven't I? I've done my part, even if I haven't done anything outstanding. I've taken such good care of you. Can't you say something nice?"
Gu Ran was speechless: "Shut up! Stop talking."
Xiao Sheng: "...Okay, I'm not usually very talkative, but I'm a little nervous. Look, my clothes are all wet. But am I being too nervous? Why am I sweating so much? My hands, face, and neck are all covered in sweat. Gu Ran, can you get me some tissues? I'm taking them secretly. It would be so embarrassing if someone looked over."
Gu Ran: "...I've never seen you so stupid before. Don't you think it's because you've awakened a superpower?" This person is surrounded by water elements, and his superpower has already appeared, yet he still keeps babbling on and on.
"Huh? I have superpowers!" Xiao Sheng was stunned.
His shout drew everyone's attention.
"He has superpowers?"
"What kind of superpower?"
"Show it to us!"
Gu Yin also came over and saw that Xiao Sheng's condition was obviously not right, which meant that he had developed superpowers.
"Is it a water-based ability?"
Gu Ran nodded: "Yes."
Gu Yin nodded upon hearing this: "Xiao Sheng, try to control it."
Before conducting experiments, the techniques for controlling superpowers are always given to them in advance.
"Oh, okay, okay! I'll control it right away!" Xiao Sheng calmed down after his excitement and tried to meditate and control it according to the techniques he had seen before.
"biu~biubiu!"
Xiao Sheng: "......"
Everyone: "......"
Gu Yin was speechless as she watched the water jets, like a child urinating, gushing out from the other person's fingers.
"It's like a child peeing! Why are you peeing so intermittently? What's wrong? Are you constipated? Is it not going smoothly?" The old commander was exasperated just looking at him! He wanted nothing more than to give him a good beating!
"Pfft! Cough cough cough!"
"Cough cough cough! Lao Xiao, don't be in such a hurry!"
Xiaosheng didn't want this either!
"Don't crowd around me, I'll try it myself slowly. I'm nervous watching you!" He was indeed excited and nervous, which made it impossible for him to concentrate! That's what it felt like to have frequent urination and incomplete emptying of the bladder!
Hearing him say that, the old commander wanted to slap him even more. This was his mentality? All those lessons he taught were a waste! All that instruction he gave was for nothing!
"When we get back to the base, Ayin, make him train with Lan Yan and the others. He's been living too carefree these past two years; he can't even handle this much! What a waste!"
He seemed really angry, as he even spoke with an accent.
Xiao Sheng dared not act recklessly any longer, and closed his eyes to carefully guide and control the situation.
With a flick of his wrist, a stream of water shot directly towards the adjacent panel, cleaving the cloth panel in two!
Xiao Sheng withdrew his hand and looked at Gu Yin.
Gu Yin nodded: "Not bad, you're learning very quickly. Water is hard to control, but once you do, you can be very skilled. The human body is 75% water, and blood is also water. You can learn slowly."
After saying that, he looked at the old leader and asked, "Do you want to continue looking, or would you like to go over there?"
Seeing that his son had finally returned to normal, the old leader felt relieved and turned around, saying, "Go and see the others."
Upon seeing Xiaosheng like this, the gymnasium was no longer quiet.
"Hey bro, I heard you're afraid of needles, how about we switch seats?"
"You didn't want to play? Let's switch positions!"
"Get lost! Who doesn't want to get vaccinated? I do! I really do! I love getting vaccinated! If circumstances allow, I'd like to get two more shots!"
"Isn't it said that soldiers have priority? Come on, guys, step back, we're soldiers, we have priority!"
The privileged children from the compound, who had initially been worried these people wouldn't be willing to fight and were now pushed to the back of the line, were speechless.
"What about discipline! What kind of behavior is this, making such a racket! Whether you're in front or behind, it's all the same! Anyone who's shouting, get out of here right now! There are so many leaders here, look at yourselves, what kind of behavior is this! If other military regions saw this, you wouldn't be fit to work here anymore! Look at the way you're acting! You're disgracing our capital!"
The military commander frowned as he looked at the disheveled soldiers, wishing he could kick them all! Was this any way to behave?!
Xiao Sheng, who was standing to the side, pursed his lips and muttered to himself, "At least I'm not the only one making a fool of myself."
Gu Ran: "......" Can this even be compared?
This injection was completed in half a day, and during that time, everyone gradually began to show changes.
Even Xie Fangze has gained a superpower! His superpower is critical strike, which is somewhat similar to Lan Yan's, so it suits him well.
But just as Gu Yin said, the medicine was milder, and the change was much milder, and the riot that the old leader had worried about did not occur.
Despite the excitement, the necessary order was maintained.
“I’m not worried about the military; they are organized and disciplined. The main concern is the ordinary people. This is a big task, but also a big problem. Once people have the ability, they won’t be content with the status quo. There will definitely be riots. My concern is that some people will develop unrealistic ambitions, and it will be the ordinary people who suffer in the end.”
The old leader stood next to Gu Yin, watching the soldiers discuss their respective supernatural abilities.
"I've come this far, how could I possibly back down because of this little difficulty? The widespread promotion among the people can wait until a year later. In this year, the soldiers can improve their own abilities. After a year, even if some people want to start a riot, they won't amount to anything."
"That makes sense. We originally planned to start with the schools, but the young and impetuous kids all have their own ideas. The ones who are easy to manage are the kids, and the ones who are difficult to manage are also the kids. This is a bit tricky. We still have to start by casting bait online, casting a big hook every month. Over time, everyone will get used to it. We'll have another meeting to think about it later. I think that at this rate, in a few days, the entire Central Theater Command will have completed the injection. You can let go of things here. As for the other four theater commands, will you go there yourself, or will you let them go?"
