MTL - Survivor 01 [Unlimited]-Chapter 176 Games Lobby
"Mutations?!"
The three people in the room except Jian Lingxi spoke in unison.
Qin Jing almost spit out a sip of water, Ren Huayan's eyes widened, Esther was even more exaggerated, he bounced off the bed directly.
Can supernatural powers mutate?
This is a new word for them, of course, it is also for Ye Fei.
"It may be a mutation, but I'm more inclined. This is the second awakening of his ability."
Ye Fei has been studying supernatural powers for many, many years. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the person who knows the supernatural power system best in the world today, but even he has never encountered a situation where the supernatural power bearer has changed.
Zhou Zhengning's ability is called "six-sided augmentation", which means that his ability is aimed at the augmentation system of six attributes. His ability mechanism is also very simple. Using the Rubik's Cube as the medium, a completed side is a single item. Boosts, boost numbers and effects stack up to six sides.
But now, Zhou Zhengning's Rubik's Cube has changed into six colors opposite to the initial state.
The ability carrying object can be different from ordinary items, and its change probably means that the holder's own ability attribute has changed.
Just like the original state of Zhou Zhengning's Rubik's Cube is an increase, the reverse color is a weakening.
According to this inference, the effect of the anti-color Rubik's Cube should not be separated from the original six sides, so the six-sided increase has become six-sided weakening, and the weakening effect is 60%?
Ye Fei also didn't know why Zhou Zhengning's abilities changed at this juncture, he only hoped that this would not bring any negative impact on Zhou Zhengning.
Ye Fei sighed slightly.
There is no decent medical institution in the game hall, so Ye Fei can only let Zhou Zhengning take a good rest first, and he sees that Zhou Zhengning is fine except for the time being with a fever, so he doesn't need to be too concerned.
But he still stayed by Zhou Zhengning's side all the time. At night, when the others went out for dinner, Ye Fei was not in the mood to follow, so he only asked them to bring something for him when they came back, while he continued to sit by the bed, holding a paper Writing and drawing with a pen, trying to figure out the possibility of the second awakening of the ability.
But the person involved is still in a coma, and he is entertaining himself here alone. Ye Fei didn't have much interest in writing, so she put the pen and paper aside casually.
But at that moment, he saw Zhou Zhengning frowning, as if he was about to wake up.
Sure enough, not long after, the pale little pudding on the bed opened his eyes.
When he first saw Ye Fei, he seemed a little dazed, and then raised his eyes to confirm where he was.
"came back…"
Zhou Zhengning's voice is still a little hoarse, probably because he was injured in the game.
"Well, I'm back."
Ye Fei poured him a glass of water:
"Feeling okay?"
Zhou Zhengning got up from the bed, took the water glass, nodded, and shook his head again.
He took a sip of water and asked first:
"Ms. Ye, have the people in the canyon been rescued?"
Hearing this question, Ye Fei was not surprised.
He chuckled, thinking, this is really the little pudding he was familiar with.
The question he asked in his first reaction was never whether he won or not, but whether he was okay.
Ye Fei rubbed his hair:
"Don't worry, a lot of people have been rescued, thanks to you for delaying the time for us."
"That's good."
Only then did Zhou Zhengning seem to be truly relieved.
Just mentioning this, he seemed to have thought of something, and looked at his palm in a daze.
Ye Fei looked at him, then followed his gaze.
Half a second later, he saw an extra Rubik's Cube in Zhou Zhengning's palm.
The Rubik's Cube is still in normal color, and there is no abnormality.
Just a moment later, it turned into a reverse color from the corners like what Ye Fei had seen again.
"Can you control yourself?"
Ye Fei raised her eyebrows slightly.
Zhou Zhengning himself didn't seem to understand, he nodded:
"able to control."
"cool."
Ye Fei was a little emotional, and he praised casually.
Zhou Zhengning turned the Rubik's Cube into reverse color, and changed back after a while. He lowered his head and played with the Rubik's Cube in his hands for a while, asking:
"Miss Ye, what's the matter?"
"I don't know." Ye Fei was very honest.
"Even you don't know?"
Ye Fei was amused by these words, he shook his head:
"Ability is a wonderful and complicated thing. I just know a little bit more than ordinary people, just a little bit."
After a pause, he said again:
"But I guess, this may be the second awakening of the ability? Before the little Rubik's Cube turned into a reverse color, what were you thinking? Do you have any strong desire?"
Hearing this question, Zhou Zhengning paused for a moment, then nodded;
"I want to save people, I want to help you."
Zhou Zhengning lowered his head, clasping the quilt with his fingertips:
"I just feel that I am too useless, and I don't want to continue to hold back. In that situation, each of you is doing your best to change the ending, only I can't help, and the ability is not painful in that situation. Itching. I just really wanted to do something, really, really badly, and then the Rubik's Cube changed color and opened new weakened abilities."
Zhou Zhengning's voice was a little low, and Ye Fei looked up at him, listening to him carefully.
Until the end, he sighed:
"Silly boy."
He raised his hand and patted Zhou Zhengning's cheek:
"Stop talking like that, you're not holding anyone back."
Ye Fei's voice and tone were very gentle, Zhou Zhengning heard it in his ears, but his fingertips paused.
He was like a child who was finally comforted by an adult, because of this sentence, a sour feeling suddenly rolled up in his heart.
He has suffered too much grievance in Lieyang these days, and encountered too much helplessness. Originally, he could hold back, but now, the valve of his emotions has been opened by someone, and he can't close it for a while.
"Ms. Ye..."
He wanted to express all his grievances:
"Did I really not hold back?"
Seeing his eyes turn red, Ye Fei felt distressed.
He simply reached out and hugged Zhou Zhengning into his arms, and patted him on the back like coaxing a child:
"No."
"But I messed up your plans, didn't I?"
Zhou Zhengning's voice was stained with tears:
"I was given a supernatural power by Secretary Jin next to Cen Lin. Through that supernatural power, they knew everything that happened around me. I was too scared. I was afraid that your tactics would be leaked. I was afraid every day, and I was also afraid that I would change. become a burden, and I am even more afraid that something unexpected will happen to me..."
Zhou Zhengning was talking, tears streaming down his face, he was crying so hard, Ye Fei felt distressed and funny when he heard it.
"Then I thought, I can't stay by your side anymore, so I thought I might as well go to Cen Lin's side. If she tells me to betray, I'd rather die than surrender. If it's a big deal, I'll kill me. It's nothing to be afraid of. But , but someone still died because of me.
"The little soldier who stayed to protect me, he was only a teenager, and he still had a family, but he died in the wilderness because of me, I..."
Ye Fei listened to him carefully, and he patted Zhou Zhengning's head:
"That's fake, it's all fake, maybe in the real timeline, he lived until the end of the war, and spent the rest of his life happily with his family?"
Ye Fei is already making up stories, because he knows the outcome of this war better than anyone else, but now that the child is emotional, it is good to comfort him.
"But Teacher Ye, I also killed people. I took a gun and killed many people. They fell in front of me, bleeding all over the ground. I know that is also fake, but, I..."
Ye Fei paused.
This kid Zhou Zhengning is different from others, this guy is pure and kind to the extreme, when he encounters this kind of thing, he knows how much shadow he must have in his heart.
Ye Fei didn't know how to comfort her for a while.
"Afraid?"
"Afraid."
"What are you afraid of?"
"I'm afraid I will become a bad person."
Hearing this, Ye Fei thought for a while, and then said:
"I don't advocate killing, and I don't advocate it under any circumstances. But it doesn't mean that anyone with blood on their hands must be a bad person."
Ye Fei frowned slightly:
"Ask yourself whether the blood on your hands is for self-protection, or to protect others, and to protect more people. Ask yourself, what made you make this choice, and whether it must be this way. Ask again Ask yourself if you are still in awe of life."
"I believe that people should not be one-sidedly divided into good and bad factions. People are complex and diverse. Some people have never had blood on their hands, but what they did indirectly killed countless lives and even the whole world. Some people died by killing live, but they guard far more than that, you know what I mean?"
Ye Fei took out a piece of paper from her hand, and wiped Zhou Zhengning's cheeks wet with tears:
"You don't need to dig into the horns yourself, as long as you are in awe of life, as long as you have firm beliefs, then you are still a human being, not a ghost."
Hearing Ye Fei's words, Zhou Zhengning barely stopped the emotional tears.
He took the tissue, wiped away his tears, and nodded seriously.
For Zhou Zhengning these few days, too many things really happened, so that the child finally woke up, hugged him and cried, and then fell asleep again.
Coincidentally, as soon as he fell asleep, the people who had gone out for dinner came back.
Qin Jing took a look first. Seeing that Zhou Zhengning was still sleeping, she asked in a low voice:
"Is he all right?"
"It's okay." Ye Fei got up from the chair:
"Give me something to eat, Miss Gao, I'm starving to death."
"Then go find Jian Lingxi, I'll watch over here."
Qin Jing walked in and patted his shoulder.
Ye Fei readily agreed.
His and Jian Lingxi's rooms were just across the street, within two steps.
He took out his room card from his pocket, swiped open the door and walked in.
In the room, Jian Lingxi moved out a small table, and he carefully placed the dishes he brought back on the table.
Ye Fei was almost moved to death, it felt so good to have someone waiting to eat as soon as the door was opened.
But hearing the movement at the door, Jian Lingxi raised her eyes and glanced at him:
"I was just about to call you."
"It's hard work."
Ye Fei stretched, trotted to the table and sat down.
"Is Zhou Zhengning okay?"
"Fortunately, I just woke up and cried a bit, saying that he killed someone. The child must have been scared, and now he fell asleep again."
Jian Lingxi nodded.
He took a pair of chopsticks from the paper bag he brought back, broke them open, and carefully smoothed the burrs before handing them to Ye Fei.
He glanced at Ye Fei and asked:
"Ms. Ye?"
"Um."
Ye Fei took a sip of the juice first, the juice tasted very good and made him feel good.
"Did Ou Lanxing tell you anything?"
Jian Lingxi's tone was slightly tentative.
Hearing Jian Lingxi's question, Ye Fei paused, before he could swallow the juice in his mouth, and almost choked himself.
There were a lot of things that happened today, and he hadn't had time to think about them. Now that Jian Lingxi asked him this question, he recalled the nonsense he had heard from Ou Lanxing before he released the dungeon.
"Doctor, he's just like me, we both love you"
Some things, even if I know it in my heart, but I can't stand the people around me talking about it all day long, and I feel a little shaken when I hear it.
But Ye Fei wasn't that thick-skinned, he couldn't really do what Ou Lanxing said, and go to Jian Lingxi and ask him if he likes him.
But now that the topic has come to this point, he swallowed the juice with difficulty, laughed dryly, and returned with a lion's head in his chopsticks:
"It's okay. He hasn't been struggling with that one thing? I said we were friends, but he insisted that you like me. You don't like me, right? I don't know where his confidence in me comes from. The whole world is his rival in love?"
Ye Fei complained casually, but for some reason, he just couldn't get up and down in his heart, and he didn't know what to do.
He didn't look at Jian Lingxi's reaction, but only he knew that all his attention was on Jian Lingxi, waiting for his answer.
"Yes, there shouldn't be as many as in the world."
Jian Lingxi followed his words and responded.
"..."
Ye Fei breathed a sigh of relief.
Look, he just said...
"But there was me."
"?"
ah?
What?
Ye Fei opened his eyes wide.
How to say.
It was hard for him to describe the feeling.
Just like a werewolf killing, he gave all his trust to the civilians around him, and in the end, the man took off his headgear:
Oops, a wolf's head.
Ye Fei looked at Jian Lingxi, and then at the lion head on her own chopsticks.
He silently put the lion's head back into the bowl with a slightly sad expression.
he asks:
"You... are... joking, right?"
Ye Fei's tone was uncertain and slow.
Jian Lingxi looked at him, and after a while, she chuckled lightly:
"Originally, I didn't want to embarrass Teacher Ye, so I should nod and say that I am indeed joking."
Ye Fei was short of breath.
He prayed that there would be no but after this sentence.
pity:
"But I still don't want to say negative words on this kind of thing, so Ye Fei..."
Jian Ling paused for a moment, then raised her eyes to look at him, Ye Fei's shadow was reflected in her golden pupils.
His expression and tone were focused, as if he was afraid that Ye Fei would not believe him, so he paused word by word, and said with great certainty:
"I really like you."
