Chapter 157
When I came out after washing up, Si Zhaohua also came out. His habit has always been to take a shower after class, and he did not change this habit even though the class ended so early here.
"Why do you take a shower as soon as you come back?" Si Zhaohua asked with some surprise when he saw Su Bei coming out of the room wiping his hair.
We have been together for a year. There are only 15 people in the class, and we live on campus. We know each other's living habits. People in northern Jiangsu usually wash before going to bed.
"I worked up a sweat in the fighting class." Su Bei answered casually, "By the way, is there anyone looking for you to fight today?"
Today is already the second day, and Si Zhaohua's class teacher only gave him one day of protection, so he can be challenged today.
Sure enough, Si Zhaohua gave an affirmative answer: "Of course."
Seeing his confident look, there is no need to ask whether he will win or lose, there is no suspense at all.
Reminded by Su Bei, Jiang Tianming took out his phone and asked Lan Subing if they had been challenged today. He looked up after a while and said, "Baozhu has been challenged and she won. Ah Bing was 'pre-challenged'."
"What does 'prepare for a challenge' mean?" Si Zhaohua asked puzzledly.
Su Bei understood immediately: "Does she want to ask Si Zhaohua for help?"
As mentioned before, support-type matches are usually played with a friend who is a strong attack-type. After all, unless they are of the same type of ability and the difference in strength is huge, it is actually difficult to compare the strength of support-types alone.
In fact, it is not fair to ask a teammate to compete together, and the difference in strength between teammates can easily affect the outcome of the game. If Si Zhaohua is asked to compete together, to be honest, even if Lan Subing wins, I am afraid they will not be too convinced.
After all, Si Zhaohua's strength is there, and his presence is very strong when he displays his supernatural powers. Basically, when he appears, it is difficult for the audience to notice the presence of other people.
After Su Bei said this, Si Zhaohua also understood the meaning of "prepare for a challenge" and immediately said, "I can help at any time."
"No, no, no." Jiang Tianming shook his head, "She plans to fight those two people alone."
After hearing this, Su Bei raised his eyebrows, thought for a moment and asked, "What did she hear?"
Lan Subing was not the kind of person who would show off her strength. She would not have said at the beginning that she would fight two people alone. Something must have happened to make her change her mind.
Naturally, Su Bei guessed that someone had told her something.
As expected, Jiang Tianming, who also knew Lan Subing well, also asked this question: "She said that someone mocked her for relying on her exchange students to win."
"But her ability is [Word Spirit]." Su Bei said it was hard to understand. How could someone trust someone with such a ceiling-level ability like [Word Spirit]? They couldn't ignore the objective facts just because Lan Subing signed up for the auxiliary system.
If he hadn't said it, no one would have thought of it, but once he said it, everyone reacted. Yes, Lan Subing's ability was questioned and was useless. This world is too absurd!
Su Bei, who first raised the question, has already understood it. After all, this is a comic book world, and it is normal for the protagonists to be ridiculed and then slapped in the face. As long as it does not deviate from the Basic Law, the slightest logical problem will not be taken seriously.
"So she decided to fight two people alone." Si Zhaohua's handsome eyebrows wrinkled tightly, "But the opponent Su Bing has to face is not an easy one."
If it was against the F class, then it would be no problem for a few people. But the problem is that the opponent is at least the strength of the A class, and there is a high probability that two people are both.
It is worth mentioning here that "Alpha Superpower High School" does not have an extraordinary class like Class S, so the first class of each academy is at the level of Class A of "Infinite Superpower Academy".
"I asked her, too. Ah Bing said she knew the ability of the support challenger and had already thought of a solution." Jiang Tianming answered, with a complex expression of worry and trust on his face. Finally, he said with certainty, "She will definitely win."
Su Bei suddenly remembered something and gave Si Zhaohua a teasing and mocking expression: "I guess they mocked Su Bing after you finished the game."
Si Zhaohua had never thought of this guess before. He was stunned at first, and then a bit of sarcasm appeared on his face: "If this is true, then they really are..."
His upbringing prevented him from saying anything malicious, but some things can be expressed without words. If they really mocked Lan Subing because they heard that Si Zhaohua won the competition and were afraid that he was too strong, then they were really weak and cowardly.
Jiang Tianming did not ask Lan Subing this question, but after listening to Su Bei's words, he felt that it was very likely. After all, according to her description, they did suddenly mock Lan Subing some time after launching the challenge.
I originally wanted to ask Lan Subing about the specific timeline, but after thinking about it, I decided to forget it. It’s useless to ask, so I better not let her be upset again for no reason.
Bored with no homework, Si Zhaohua glanced at his class schedule posted on the door and asked, "When is the class?"
Jiang Tianming immediately replied: "The day after tomorrow after school, on the playground."
Isn't it possible for everyone to see it in the playground?
Su Bei once again felt the disparity in the world. Again, he was outnumbered, but his opponents were very ashamed. They knew they would be embarrassed no matter whether they won or lost, so they didn't want others to know at all.
The protagonists' opponents were different. They dared to go to the playground and let everyone see them. Do they think it would be glorious if they won in this situation?
Si Zhaohua has already said that he will go to watch the game after school tomorrow, so Jiang Tianming turned to look at Su Bei: "You will come to watch it too, right?"
Su Bei shrugged, but didn't refuse: "Yeah."
After returning to the house and closing the door, he began to read the content of this comic update.
The comic begins with Meng Huai saying that they will be going to three places next. After briefly introducing the three places to the readers, the next scene switches the camera and goes directly to the bus where Feng Lan and the others are.
It can also be seen here that after everyone was divided into three teams, the length of the article became much tighter. Otherwise, based on the author's habit, there should have been a lot of room for daily life in the beginning.
Because the "Delicious Nightmare Farm" was not too far from the college, they took the bus directly there. Compared with the other two teams, this group undoubtedly had a more spring outing atmosphere. Or it would be more appropriate to call it a study tour.
They soon arrived at the place. Unexpectedly, the "Delicious Nightmare Beast Farm" was actually located in an alien space. The bus took them to the entrance of the alien space and stopped. There was already a staff member waiting there.
The staff introduced this alien space, and Su Bei only learned through comics that there is another type of alien space called open alien space.
This alien space is very rare, so the school has never introduced it. Because there are many "closed points" in it, there are many kinds of nightmare beasts.
Generally speaking, if there are multiple "closed points" in an alien space, the government will quickly send people to seal the entire alien space as soon as possible, because once two "closed points" appear in the alien space, it means that there may be more "closed points" in the corners. If it is not solved once and for all, it will be very troublesome later.
But the owner of the "Delicious Nightmare Farm" is himself a powerful psychic. After he discovered this alien space, he led his team to turn it into a private alien space and transformed it into the current Nightmare Farm.
The "locked points" inside have been fully mastered, and they will be opened regularly to introduce a new batch of nightmare beasts. Then there will be special staff responsible for capturing, feeding, and selling them. Sometimes they also need help with production.
Before they had time to tidy up their rooms, something happened. A nightmare monkey jumped out and tried to escape from the farm through the entrance they had entered.
Several people worked together to catch the nightmare monkey, and the story here came to an end.
What was unexpected was that they came to Su Bei's side. Usually, if there are two directly there, the plot should be placed at the end, but now it is placed in the middle. Su Bei guessed that it was because the plot of the entire mission was the most important to Wu Mingliang's side, so their plot was placed at the end.
There is nothing much to say about the plot of "Alpha Supernatural High School". It first depicts a scene on a flying carpet, and then arrives at school and is provoked by two students from the school. When going to the cafeteria to eat, all the students in the school are watching.
After the suspense was fully aroused, the comic changed its location as expected. The "Superpower Job Base" was located in a remote area because of the need for advance training. The base covers a large area and contains various simulated business environments.
There are simulated entrances to otherworldly spaces, as well as nearby restaurants, hotels, etc. There are also simulated school playgrounds, corridors, and classrooms, all of which are used to allow people with special abilities to adapt to the environment in advance.
It was also through the tour guide's explanation that everyone realized that those who came here to seek work were not only graduates with relatively poor superpowers who did not want to return to the ordinary world, but also people who awakened their superpowers after adulthood.
Therefore, this place is not only a job search base, but also an adult school, which is dedicated to helping adult superpowers who do not have the opportunity to attend superpower academy to control their powers and understand the common sense of the superpower world.
Generally speaking, the abilities of people who awaken after adulthood are not very strong, but there are always exceptions, such as some people with gene mutations, or people who awakened their abilities before but never knew they were abilities and thus missed the opportunity to go to school.
In short, since there is a chance of finding real gold in the big waves, the government naturally doesn't mind continuing to do low-cost and high-return things. It can also solve the employment problem of people with special abilities.
Wu understood that in addition to experiencing those professions, they also had a very important job this time, which was to serve as little teachers to these adult people with special abilities.
The plot here is to teach a lesson to those new adult superpowers first. Among the majority of students who study hard, one or two students who appear to be serious but are actually perfunctory are quickly caught by the sharp-eyed Wu Mingbai.
However, the amazing thing is that when these people were called up to ask questions, they were able to answer them fluently. Although the questions themselves were simple, it should have been difficult for a few people who had never been exposed to the supernatural world and had not attended classes.
As for the claim that there are people with special abilities in their families and that they have been taught a lot of relevant knowledge before awakening, this is nonsense.
A superpower family like Si Zhaohua's didn't let him go to the superpower space before he awakened, nor did they talk to him too much about superpowers. He was more knowledgeable than others at the beginning of the school year, which was completely because he studied frantically during the period between awakening his superpowers and the beginning of the school year.
The reason why I don't tell these things to children who haven't awakened their superpowers is, firstly, to prevent them from feeling disappointed if they don't awaken their superpowers. Secondly, the more they know, the easier it is for them to be found by the nightmare beast, which is a kind of attraction.
In the face of the fact that knowing the news is likely to attract nightmare beasts, there are generally two countermeasures. The domestic choice is to keep ordinary people as unaware as possible, so that the nightmare beasts, which are more inclined to find ordinary psychics, will not disturb ordinary people.
The countermeasures used by foreign countries are to let everyone know, so that the nightmare beasts will attack indiscriminately. And because the mutants are more attractive to the nightmare beasts, the probability of being attacked is higher.
Both methods are feasible to a certain extent, depending on the above ideas.
Back to the classroom, since a supernatural family leader like Si Zhaohua didn't know any relevant information before awakening, how did these people know it?
After class, Wu Mingbai went to check the information of these people. They all came to the "Special Power Job Base" for the first time today, and their awakening happened within one or two months.
And except for one of them, the remaining two people have no family members with super powers. They were completely discovered from the ordinary people by the staff of the super power government, and only then did they know that they had awakened super powers.
In this case, it seems even more strange that they can answer questions that the soldiers understand without listening.
There are many speculations about this. Some suspect that these people learned this knowledge through some special channel, some suspect that these people are undiscovered geniuses with special abilities, and some say that they are actually sent by the government to monitor Wu Mingbai's staff...
In short, each has its own reasons, but none of them are too dark.
But Su Bei is different. He now suspects that these people are undercover agents sent by the "Black Flash" organization.
What makes him different from others is that he has inside information! Su Bei knows that the "Black Flash" organization is determined to cause trouble in the "Superpower Job Base". Although he is not sure what the incident is, there must be an undercover agent of the "Black Flash" organization here.
Just like the undercover agents they planted in the "Infinite Power Academy", if there is one among the staff, there is likely to be one among the students as well, so that they can be absolutely sure.
After briefly recording the physical features of these people, Su Bei continued to look ahead.
After leaving the story on suspense here, the scene changes and the plot returns to the "Delicious Nightmare Beast Farm".
Something was wrong here. After catching the escaped nightmare monkey, no one thought it was strange at first. It was common for nightmare beasts to escape. The "Delicious Nightmare Farm" had made a lot of preparations for this and had never let them escape successfully. So usually only the new and smarter nightmare beasts would try to test it, and after being killed as a warning to others, they would stop trying.
However, what was unexpected was that the Nightmare Beasts escaped several times. However, since they were all new Nightmare Beasts causing trouble, the administrator still didn't pay attention. As for the troublemakers, it was normal that there were more of them this time.
But Feng Lan predicted something wrong. He saw from the prophecy a large number of nightmare beasts escaping, which was obviously a premeditated riot.
However, this matter cannot be directly told to the staff of the "Delicious Nightmare Beast Farm" because Feng Lan has his own principles. For example, if you use your supernatural powers to help others, especially to solve problems for a certain organization, it is easy to cause endless trouble if you don't say it through official channels.
Once people know that he will speak out after discovering problems with his prophecy, they can just invite him to visit every day and stay for a few more days, and they can know in disguise whether their family will encounter danger recently.
For something like this that is almost free and low-cost, others will definitely try it, and then they will face endless troubles. So it is not okay to say no directly or to hint at it.
But if Feng Lan didn't say anything, it would be bad. After all, they still had to live here for another month. The Nightmare Beast riot would 100% affect them. By then, I'm afraid everyone would be in danger. It's better to take precautions and solve the problem in advance. This is also the greatest role of [Prophecy].
After thinking for a long time, Feng Lan decided to tell the prediction to four classmates, and they solved the problem in secret. If the teacher found out, it could be said that one of them found out the clues, but he just had to not expose himself.
After the other four Qi Huang members learned the whole story, they all promised to keep the secret for him, and then they all worked together to find the secret of the Nightmare Beast's escape.
The next part is about their search for secrets, which does not involve any main plot. Although there are some conspiracies and tricks, it is not too heavy because it only involves nightmare beasts.
Finally, it was discovered that the group of nightmare beasts had indeed planned this in advance. The few that escaped were all forcibly sent out by them to explore the way and find a safe place. This shows that even the nightmare beasts have the phenomenon of dominance, which is simply terrifying.
In the end, the Fenglan team all received a banner, ending the plot of this comic update.
Next is the plot of "Alpha Supernatural High School". Unlike the other two locations, there is really no conspiracy here. The five people soon learned from A Baozhu's pen pal the reason why they were hated by the whole school. It was because a resource space was about to be opened. As people who robbed resources, they would naturally be hated by the enemy.
For a moment, the reader felt that the protagonists were innocent. They knew nothing, but they were accused of such a crime. But when Jiang Tianming said, "We do steal resources," the reader fell silent.
That's true. Now that we're here, there's no reason not to grab it, especially since this is a comic book world. You don't have to think about it to know that the alien space must be a plot point.
Originally, everyone thought that Jiang Tianming and others would find a way to explain, and after some clichéd plots such as slapping in the face and helping, they would gain the forgiveness of the students of "Alpha High School for Superpowers".
Who knew that when I turned to the next page, I saw Su Bei suddenly say: "Since we have already endured the hostility, we must also get the resources, otherwise it would be in vain."
The frequency of bullet screens on this page suddenly soared.
"Damn! That makes sense!"
"Su Bei is really worthy of you"
“Hahahahahahaha look at the other people’s expressions of sudden enlightenment!”
"You can still think like this"
“As expected, Northern Jiangsu never engages in internal friction.”
"Rob! I'll rob him of the big one!"
Next, Jiang Tianming was provoked and then fought with his opponent. After they finished fighting, it was Su Bei's turn to fight. As soon as Elvis appeared on the scene, he triggered a heated discussion.
The same thought as Su Bei's first sight of him, the black and white hair color is very easy to attract the reader's attention. Coupled with the powerful supernatural power of [Time Hourglass], a beautiful and powerful supporting character jumps onto the paper.
Elvis's personality is very cold, which is inconsistent with the current personality of any of the protagonists. Feng Lan and Si Zhaohua, who are relatively cold, are not really cold, and Ling You, who has a personality similar to him, is a girl, so there is no substitute.
While everyone was worryingly discussing why Su Bei had a conflict with Elvis, the two men on the ring had already started fighting.
The fight between the two was very exciting. After all, both Su Bei and Elvis had strong superpowers. Without letting anyone off the mark, both sides showed very professional superpower fighting skills. Moreover, the comics were much more exciting than the real-life competitions. After all, superpowers and mental powers that were invisible to the naked eye could be drawn in comics.
It was through comics that Su Bei learned that Elvis had been frantically going back in time. He knew that Su Bei's abilities were difficult to detect, and he was afraid that he would be caught by him accidentally, so he tried his best to keep himself in the safest state at the beginning.
But to be honest, Su Bei was really curious about how much mental power he had. Wouldn't he run out of mental power if he used his powers so frequently?
Comic readers are experienced and know exactly what kind of heights time-related superpowers can reach in the future. Although Elvis has not yet reached that level, the strength he has shown is enough to make everyone excited.
Su Bei once again proved his strength. Because the specific principle of his supernatural powers could not be analyzed, in the eyes of the audience in the comics and the readers outside the comics, his performance of making Elvis fall from the platform again and again seemed like he truly controlled fate and could fix a person's fate.
And because his skin is very white, the whitening of his face due to excessive consumption of mental energy is not obvious in the comics, as if he easily changed Elvis's fate without consuming anything.
Looking at Su Bei jumping down from the ring and clapping with Elvis in a cool manner, the screen couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
“The strength of northern Jiangsu remains a mystery.”
"I think these two look a bit like a couple."
"Both of them have very strong abilities. This seems to be the first time that Su Bei has tied with someone."
"This black and white hair seems to be the strongest in their school. So Su Bei is also the strongest now."
"Strange, they don't look like they are having a conflict, so why are they fighting?"
Regarding the last bullet screen, the comic quickly gave an answer through Jiang Tianming's question. In the last second, Su Bei answered him that it was a small transaction, and in the next second, the conversation between Elvis and Su Bei afterwards appeared.
Elvis stood in front of Su Bei and said: "Are you good at that game?"
