Chapter 186
This is true. Since ancient times, ordinary people have been the ones most restricted by government decrees. Many powerful people can even ignore government decrees.
After understanding what that thing is, the next question is more important: "How to solve the problem of 'Strong Mushroom'? Is there any corresponding antidote?"
Meng Huai on the other side of the phone said with a half-smile: "You really are prepared for a rainy day. The best antidote is of course to have a stronger psychic by your side."
He rolled his eyes speechlessly and sent an emoticon with an ellipsis.
Meng Huai didn't waste any more time with him: "Just don't let yourself come into contact with the spores. Mo Xiaotian's ability is very effective against the 'Strong Mushroom'."
Mo Xiaotian's special ability is [Air]. He can completely isolate any spores that want to approach, keeping himself clean and naturally unaffected.
In this way, Elvis should not be affected either, as he can adjust the time around him at any time. By keeping time flowing backwards, he can ensure that nothing can get close.
But Su Bei himself didn't have any good way to deal with it. Maybe he could buy some props that could copy superpowers and ask Mo Xiaotian for help. No, Mo Xiaotian couldn't do that. If he secretly set a trap on it, it would be troublesome.
Although Mo Xiaotian would not do this according to his normal personality, who knows whether the "Black Flash" organization behind him will order him to do so, so it is safer and more reliable to ask Elvis for help.
When he came to the classroom, unlike before, Su Bei did not receive any hostility this time, and even received only admiring and grateful looks. Although it was mostly other people who helped them at that time, and it had nothing to do with him, this did not prevent them from being grateful for Su Bei's help.
To be honest, Su Bei didn't seem like the kind of person who would help at a time like that, and everyone was already deeply moved that he didn't run away.
If Su Bei knew what they were thinking, he would probably be speechless.
Elvis had already arrived and sat in his usual place. When Su Bei sat down, he whispered, "Someone will probably call you away later to ask what kind of reward you want. Don't be so ignorant as to ask for something common. If you are really ignorant, I can also help you with some advice."
Hearing this, Su Bei almost laughed out loud. He was just helping, why was he so arrogant? Although he had some thoughts in his mind, since someone was willing to help, Su Bei didn't mind telling him: "I want another fate skill book, what do you think?"
This is a common request that generally won't go wrong. However, after thinking about it, Elvis shook his head: "As far as I know, there are no particularly useful fate-related skill books in the inventory of 'Alpha Supernatural High School', at least not as useful as your supernatural power itself."
Although he didn't know what Su Bei's abilities actually did, judging from his previous performances, the upper limit was obviously not low. If he replaced the few fate skill books in his inventory, they might not be of much use, or even be a lower-level substitute for his original abilities.
If I use this opportunity to exchange for a useless skill book, it would be a bit more gain than loss.
Su Bei was naturally willing to listen to his suggestions. After all, Elvis and the principal were relatives and he must have known more about "Alpha Supernatural High School". When the principal invited him to the school, he must have shown him a lot of his inventory.
Besides, there is no need for Elvis to lie to himself. Since he said that there is a high probability that he will not be able to exchange for a good destiny skill book, there is no need to gamble on it. Su Bei can just change his requirement. Anyway, he is not pursuing new abilities now.
"I want an item that can increase the upper limit of my mental strength. What do you think?" Fortunately, he had prepared a backup plan. If the former was rejected, he could directly switch to the second one.
Because Su Bei has a high level of spiritual power, it is useless to increase his spiritual power. It is like building a new room for him when he already has a building. It cannot be said to be completely useless, but the effect is minimal.
However, increasing the upper limit of mental strength is different. It is equivalent to allowing him to build one more floor on the building, turning the eight-story building into a nine-story building. The effect is completely different from the former.
Hearing this, Elvis frowned, and remembered a question that had been on his mind before: "Are you a high-level spiritual power owner?"
In fact, Elvis had this question before when Su Bei asked him why he could use his superpowers so much. Just like Su Bei's doubts at that time, he was also curious about how Su Bei could use his superpowers so wantonly.
The consumption of his destiny-related abilities must be greater than his own, but Elvis has never seen him consume too much mental energy.
But it was not convenient to ask at that time, and later I put this question aside. Now that Su Bei mentioned the matter of mental power again, Elvis naturally thought of this question.
But then he added: "I'm not curious about your strength, but if you have advanced mental power, then I'm not sure if the school has any props that can help you. It's difficult to increase the upper limit of advanced mental power, and you should know that yourself. But if you don't have advanced mental power, then..."
Before he finished speaking, Su Bei nodded: "I am."
Elvis was speechless.
Although there had been similar speculations, he was still surprised when the result was made public. What does it mean for a 16-year-old to have a high-level psychic power?
He couldn't help but ask: "How did you cultivate high-level spiritual power?"
Everyone knows the importance of mental power to psychics, but few psychics have advanced mental power, which is enough to illustrate the difficulty. Elvis's own mental power is actually not low, but he also knows that he is far from reaching the level of advanced mental power.
"It's probably a talent." Su Bei answered with a smile. How can having the ability to change oneself not be considered a talent?
Talent, this is indeed an unexplainable word. Elvis himself is also a person who has benefited from talent, and he has no doubts about this answer. But this does not prevent him from being angry, and he glared at Su Bei angrily.
Just now, he asked the other party to help him with his reference. Now it was not good to kill him. Su Bei immediately smiled and said in a flattering way: "Okay, you don't have advanced mental power, and you can use more mental power than me. I envy you, okay!"
Elvis then hummed with satisfaction and gave his final advice: "You'd better think of a plan C. It's not easy to find items to increase the upper limit of advanced mental power. Don't be too passive if you don't have them."
Su Bei sighed: "You don't have anything you want. Isn't your school famous for being a place of tycoons?"
This is indeed what he found on the Internet. It is the stereotype of "Alpha Superpower High School" among superpowers. It can almost be called the richest public school, otherwise it can't be an international superpower school. If it is a little worse, how can other countries send their precious superpowers to it?
Elvis resisted the urge to roll his eyes and tried his best to name his school: "Our school can meet the requirements of most students."
The implication is that Su Bei’s demands are too high.
But it was true. In general, it would take several years to encounter a student with destiny-related superpowers, let alone a student with advanced mental power. As for ordinary students, the stock of "Alpha Superpower High School" was definitely enough, and Su Bei was indeed an exception.
As they were talking, a teacher walked into the classroom, looked around and then fixed his eyes on Su Bei: "Student Su Bei, please come out for a moment. I have already asked for leave from the teacher for you."
Su Bei nodded, stood up and followed him out, then went all the way to the principal's office on the top floor. Si Zhaohua and Ai Baozhu were already there.
The principal sat on a chair and said to him and Xu: "Sit down first. We can talk about it after Jiang and Lan arrive."
After that, he pushed the plate of biscuits in front of them and said, "Eat something. This biscuit is sweet, but not too sweet. I heard that people in your country don't like to eat things that are too sweet. Try this and see if it suits your taste."
Everyone looked at each other and took a piece of cookie. I have to say it tasted really good, and unlike the generally sweet desserts in Mousse Country, this one was not that sweet and tasted just right.
While everyone was savoring the dessert, Jiang Tianming and his companions arrived. The principal took out a piece of paper to wipe off the cookie crumbs on his hands, and then smiled and said, "You should know why I called you here. Thank you for your contribution to Alpha Superpower High School. As students from other schools, you were able to step forward when the school encountered a crisis, minimizing the school's losses. Therefore, no matter what you ask for, we will try our best to meet it."
After that, he handed each person a pen and a piece of paper. It was obvious that he was afraid that they had some requests that they did not want to make public, so it was a very considerate arrangement.
Because of Meng Huai's advance reminder, everyone had already thought about this problem, and soon everyone finished writing. The principal took the papers back and left the pens to them as a souvenir.
After reading the requirements, he stroked his beard, and seeing the slightly nervous expressions of the people, he smiled and said, "Don't worry, Alpha Superpower High School can meet all of your requirements."
Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Their requests were all for the one that would help them the most, and although they all had a second plan, it would be best if the first plan could be realized.
Su Bei was also very happy. If he could raise the upper limit of his mental strength, it would definitely be a great improvement for him. Then he would be able to change more destinies at once, and his strength would be greatly improved.
In the final analysis, the strength of most psychics is closely related to their mental strength. Improving mental strength is equivalent to improving physical strength in disguise, and the two are inseparable.
After discussing this, the principal let them go. It would take some time to prepare what they needed, but it would be delivered before the end of their exchange student life.
The last less than half a week passed unusually peacefully, without any challenges, chaos, or danger. This can be regarded as the last gentleness the author gave to this exchange student life.
On the last day, Su Bei and others received rewards from "Alpha Supernatural High School". The item they gave Su Bei that could increase the upper limit of advanced spiritual power was a kind of fruit.
The fruit is pure black in appearance and looks like an enlarged plum from a distance. But when you get closer, you will find strange snake-like raised patterns on it, which looks very strange. To be honest, if it didn't emit a faint fruity fragrance, Su Bei probably wouldn't have thought it was a fruit.
The fruit was placed in an exquisite box with an instruction manual attached. However, after reading the instruction manual, Su Bei was surprised.
"Dream Snake Fruit" is the fruit of the nightmare beast after its death. Eating it can increase the capacity of the psychic power of the psychic. Only those with high psychic power can use it, otherwise they will explode and die.
What surprised Su Bei was that this thing was not a plant, but... an animal corpse.
Su Bei has never heard of the Dream Snake Nightmare Beast, but that's normal. There are many types of Nightmare Beasts. One that can produce props like this one is very rare, so many people probably don't know about it.
The instructions in the manual said that it could be eaten directly, including the skin. Su Bei prepared the fruit first, and then took the strange-shaped Dream Snake Fruit. After preparing himself for a long time, he finally made up his mind and took a bite.
It has a magical taste, a bit like a grape-flavored apple. Although it is not very sweet, it is definitely not unpalatable.
After eating the small fruit in two or three bites, Su Bei lay down on the bed. It is said that this thing will only work in dreams, and falling asleep immediately after eating it can maximize the effectiveness of the prop.
"Alpha High School" was very considerate and put a sleeping pill in the gift box of the Dream Delicious fruit, which can help people fall asleep quickly without damaging the efficacy of the fruit.
In his dream, Su Bei felt as if he had been running all the time. Although he was very tired, his intuition told him that he must not stop. Su Bei's intuition had rarely been used, so he naturally had to give it some face and trust it once.
He couldn't remember clearly what happened next, he slept until dawn and felt exhausted both physically and mentally. At the same time, his brain had a magical feeling of clarity and he could clearly feel that his mental strength limit had increased.
If ordinary mental power is a small lake and advanced mental power is a river, then their current mental power is a big river like the Yangtze River and the Yellow River.
Such a change surprised Su Bei. He had thought that a slight increase would be the limit, but he did not expect it to increase so much.
Suddenly, he thought of the scene he had dreamed of yesterday, and he had a guess in his mind. Such a running dream came too strangely, and it might be a test from the Dream Delicious Fruit. Because he soaked in the water for a long enough time last night, his mental strength increased so much.
Thinking of this, he sent a message to ask Meng Huai. Meng Huai was still the person who knew everything, and immediately gave a positive answer. He also told Su Bei that the reason why this point was not introduced in the manual was because it had been proven through many experiments that people would definitely forget the relevant information in their dreams. It was useless to tell him, he had to rely on himself.
After saying that, he seemed to suddenly realize something and sent a message asking: "Your mental strength has improved a lot."
If he had not improved so much, Su Bei would not have realized that there was something wrong with his experience in the dream.
Sure enough, Su Bei gave a positive answer. Seeing this answer, Meng Huai on the other end of the phone couldn't help but sigh. Su Bei was already a high-level spiritual power owner, and now he has improved a lot, and he doesn't know to what extent. Even he is a little jealous.
On the day when the exchange students left, the school gate was crowded. The students who had received the news in advance were waiting at the school gate, wanting to see Jiang Tianming and the others off. However, they had the foresight to slip away early.
"Isn't it a bit unfair for us to do this?" In the car, Si Zhaohua looked back at the bustling crowd at the school gate and pursed his lips. He was actually not very good at rejecting other people's kindness.
But Jiang Tianming and Lan Subing are very good at this. They have encountered many similar situations before school started. Lan Subing said seriously: "It would be unfair to us to stay."
It would be better to kill her than to let her face the enthusiasm of so many people. Besides, parting is a sad thing, why should so many people be sad with them?
"I don't know when we will meet next time." Ai Baozhu sighed, but then she became happy again. "Fortunately, I have exchanged contact information with Tiffany. It is not a loss to be an exchange student and gain a pen pal who has a lot of jewelry."
Since experiencing the events in the book world together, the relationship between the three girls has developed rapidly.
Lan Subing was not the type to exclude others because of their appearance, and Ai Baozhu also stopped judging people after the first semester. After the two helped Tiffany, she naturally opened up to them.
As the heir of an ancient family, she could easily get the very precious jewelry in the house. Every time she saw those gorgeous jewelry, Ai Baozhu simply loved them to death.
Hearing this, Jiang Tianming was a little amused: "You guys just talk about jewelry every day."
It's not discrimination or anything, but he finds it hard to imagine that someone can talk about a single topic for many days. Except for the topic of saying bad things about others. And even if it's this topic, it won't last long if only one person is talking about it.
"That's not entirely true." Lan Subing shook her head with a strange expression and looked at Ai Baozhu.
In the end, Ai Baozhu said tactfully: "She developed a hobby of reading novels after she saw a novel on my phone by chance. We usually recommend some novels to her."
Originally, this was nothing, as who doesn't like to read novels? But the strange expressions of these two people made Su Bei curious: "What kind of novels does she like to read?"
The two people's expressions became even weirder. Lan Subing coughed and said the title of the book skillfully: "The Domineering Vampire Falls in Love with Me", "The Enchanted Vampire: A Thousand Years of Love" and so on..."
"puff!"
The unexpected answer made everyone burst into laughter. Jiang Tianming tried hard to hold back his laughter and said, "What an unexpected taste. But why do you have this type of novel in your phone, Ai Baozhu?"
Apparently he had discovered the highlight. Ai Baozhu's expression froze. "Well, these are all novels that were automatically put on the novel bookshelf. I was too lazy to organize the bookshelf, so I kept them there without deleting them."
The novel I read a long time ago should have been at the back of the bookshelf. How could it be easily seen by others? Su Bei saw through it but did not say anything, and silently opened his mobile phone.
Just now, he heard the update notification sound of the comic consciousness. The comic was updated again, but it probably had nothing to do with "Alpha Superpower High School", so he didn't care too much.
Just as Su Bei expected, the comic had almost no content about "Alpha High School". It just simply ended with a brief mention of the conversation they had just had.
The author is obviously trying to be careful, as the main content of this comic update is almost entirely about the "Delicious Nightmare Farm", and he did not ignore them just because there is no real protagonist there.
Originally, Su Bei thought that the plot of "Delicious Nightmare Beast Farm" was not a big deal. After all, it was impossible for the "Black Flash" organization to attack three places. That would be too powerful for them.
However, what he didn't expect was that the "Black Flash" organization did not target the "Delicious Nightmare Farm", but the plot there should not be underestimated - they went to the Nightmare World!
The cause of the incident was a problem with the "closed point" between the "Delicious Nightmare Beast Farm" and the Nightmare Beast World. In order to prevent them from coming in to catch Nightmare Beasts again, the Nightmare Beasts sealed the "closed point" directly from the inside.
It must be said that the "Delicious Nightmare Beast Farm" has done a great thing. There has almost never been a case of the Nightmare Beasts actively blocking the "closed point". They can be said to have set a precedent.
But unfortunately, this "first" is not friendly to the "Delicious Nightmare Farm". Without this "closed point", how can they get a steady supply of nightmare meat to continue running the farm?
Therefore, it is necessary to send people into the Nightmare World to reopen the "blocking point" and add a layer of defense.
There is no doubt that the people who can complete this task are the Feng Lan team of five who do not belong to the "Delicious Nightmare Beast Farm".
Seeing that they could actually enter the Nightmare World, Su Bei felt regret for the first time. If he had known earlier, he would have tried to come here. Compared with participating in the main storyline, the Nightmare World must be more important.
Su Bei knew very well that defeating the villain was the protagonist group's mission, and his mission was to save the world.
To save the world, the most important thing is to solve the problem of Nightmare. Although he had some ideas before, he had to go to the Nightmare world for a field investigation to get the final solution.
As a result, when I finally got a chance to go to the Nightmare World, he was not there. I don't know when the next time will be. Su Bei just feels so disappointed!
There was nothing he could do. Things had already been decided. He could only see what the Nightmare World looked like through comics.
The world here is colorless, and the comics suddenly changed from color to black and white. And from the moment you enter, everyone has a sullen face, and you can tell that they are in a bad mood.
This is the characteristic of the world of nightmare beasts. It is almost impossible to have a good mood in it. It is a very reasonable setting. Originally, nightmare beasts are the product of the resentment of human beings after death. Naturally, there can be no good mood in the world where nightmare beasts are born.
The Nightmare World is full of flying sand and rocks, and the air is full of floating small stones and dust. Various Nightmare Beasts are rampant, and almost all the black objects seen in it are transformed by Nightmare Beasts, regardless of whether they are moving or not.
Seeing so many stones in the air, Su Bei's eyes sparkled. The setting of "Superpower King" is that a meteorite fell from the sky to create a new order, so these dust and stones scattered throughout the Nightmare World may be the result of a meteorite explosion.
