Chapter 289 Losing Superpowers
Chapter 289 Losing Superpowers
In fact, it was only around seven in the morning when I was kicked out by the system, which means that the total time I spent in the other-dimensional space was only five hours.
I still don’t quite understand this rule.
But now that we are out, let’s face this fresh day well.
This time every day is basically when I load the items from the supermarket into my storage space. Although I can directly move the items and stack them into the space, it is very troublesome to take out the items one by one, and the workload is not small. But I have to do this. Hoarding goods is a hardship that every supermarket owner has experienced, not to mention that this is the end of the world, and it is best to save so many things for emergency use.
But sometimes I get lazy, for example, I don't think sanitary products are very useful, and also because I feel that a roll of paper can last for a long time, so I haven't unloaded these toilet paper, sanitary napkins, laundry powder, laundry detergent and other things for a long time. And those supplements, although they are expensive, but under the current circumstances I don't think these things are as valuable as instant noodles, I only occasionally move some of them, and sometimes I'm too lazy to move the fresh bread and cakes from the bakery because I can't finish them, I can't finish them at all.
Don't mention to me that many people are hungry in the end times. These things of mine are indeed more than enough for my small family or even a hundred or eighty people, but what can I do with tens of thousands of disaster victims? Not only can I not save people, but I may also hurt myself in the end, just like the two brothers of the Chen family who were almost beaten to death because they took out food and distributed it unevenly. So, I understand this principle and will not easily help others.
At present, Brother Li in the ward has already gotten up and gone out. According to the two brothers of the Chen family, Uncle Li went to patrol the edge of the base.
I think he was seduced away by Wang Yumo.
The two little brothers of the Chen family are very busy. One is boiling water and the other is helping their father brush his teeth. It can be seen that the children are really sensible.
I went to the supermarket lounge and ordered ten dumplings, and bought a few cups of soy milk for the two children. I guess they wouldn't be hungry. Song Jue was still sleeping, so I woke him up and asked him how he talked with Zhang Hui last night.
But when Dongjue saw the dumplings, he didn't even brush his teeth and ran to eat dumplings with the three of them. This kid has a big appetite, and I was afraid that he would eat all the dumplings, so I dragged him into my supermarket lounge and let him order and eat right downstairs.
At this time Song Jue exclaimed: "Huo, Brother Huo, how come your supermarket lounge has been upgraded? Could it be that you are now a sixth-order mutant?" Seeing his face full of fear and admiration, I secretly felt a little proud in my heart, and told him not to tell anyone, we have to keep a low profile.
Song Jue ate the dumplings while nodding and agreeing with me: "Brother, I will definitely obey your orders in the future. I will obey you and follow your decisions. Please don't abandon me..."
I patted his head and ordered a KFC breakfast set, a plate of century egg and lean meat porridge, and a cheese chicken panini for myself.
Although I was exhausted last night, I didn't seem to be very hungry this morning.
Song Jue was still asking me if there were other girls when I went to the other-dimensional killing array last night?
My vague answer basically saved me, and I asked Song Jue again: "You are seventeen years old this year, and you haven't finished high school yet? Otherwise, I will send you to study as well."
When Song Jue heard the word "study", he shook his head like a rattle and said with a sad face that he didn't want to study because it was too hard.
I sighed, this uneducated boy, and then I thought that there was actually no difference between me and him in high school, otherwise why did he only get into an ordinary university in the end? Let's not blame each other.
I told him to help me in the underground shelter today. Song Jue immediately nodded in agreement and said he had no problem doing it.
This child is quite active in his work.
I recalled the girl last night. She was my first time. That girl was so nice. I want to see her again tonight...
When we finished our meal and returned to the ward, Lu Lanxuan came over. When he saw me, he exclaimed, "Brother Huo, I finally found you. Come with me."
I took Song Jue with me and said hello to the three members of the Chen family. I asked the two children to lock the door and try not to leave the ward. I left some food and water for them for lunch, and left with Song Jue and Lu Lanxuan.
To fulfill his promise and help them build an underground shelter.
I introduced Song Jue to Lu Lanxuan and said that he was my younger brother. He was a fourth-level metal-type mutant and would definitely be of great help.
After going downstairs, I suddenly felt it was very cold outside. This feeling was not right. I didn't understand what was wrong.
I also asked if Ding Shaoxi had come. Lu Lanxuan immediately complained to me that Ding Shaoxi had come a long time ago, but when she saw that you didn't come, she sent herself to find you. She is at the entrance of the shelter.
When I arrived at the entrance of the shelter, I saw Ding Shaoxi directing everyone to put the equipment in order. It seemed like they were waiting for me to start work.
I was just about to step forward and say hello when I suddenly felt dizzy and almost fell down.
Song Jue, who was standing next to me, quickly supported me and asked worriedly, "Brother, what's wrong with you?"
I waved my hands and tried to stand up straight. I wanted to use my supernatural power, but suddenly I realized that I couldn't use my ice power at all.
Currently, the construction of this underground shelter has excavated a distance of fifteen meters deep from the entrance. It is said that a water layer has been dug out further down, but due to the freezing overnight, a half-meter thick layer of ice has formed again, which needs to be cut and moved away today.
But when I was moving things, I found that I had very little strength. Logically, I am a power user, so I should be able to move some heavy objects. The heavy objects that I used to lift easily with my power were now motionless. I was shocked. Could it be that because I was exhausted from the night with Chuchu, my power disappeared?
What should I do? I suddenly panicked. If my superpowers disappeared, wouldn't I just become an ordinary person? When I treated Ding Shaoxi so condescendingly yesterday, I didn't expect that I would end up like this.
I quickly swallowed a crystal core to see if I could recover my superpowers, but after eating two third-level crystal cores in succession, there was no improvement. Now I was even more panicked. Maybe I should take a day off today.
I had no choice but to ask Ding Shaoxi and Lu Lanxuan to discuss it. It would take more than a day to empty the underground shelter that is a hundred meters deep. We have already cleared out more than ten meters of space, so today's task is to consolidate the overall design of this layer, and then we can plan it layer by layer...
I finally found an excuse to secretly breathe a sigh of relief, then pushed Song Jue and the two men aside and explained, "Song Jue is a fourth-level metal-type mutant. Today, his main task is to reinforce the space around the first-floor main control room and create some load-bearing details. Only in this way can a solid foundation be laid to facilitate the implementation of future plans." I spoke righteously and it was obvious that there was some truth to my words.
Ding Shaoxi actually approved of my plan! She nodded in agreement with me seriously, saying that she also thought this idea was really good. If we can strengthen the structure of this layer, then the large mechanical equipment at the entrance of the cave can be smoothly moved down and put into work, without having to pour ice cubes from a long distance. In this way, it is also convenient to build stairs leading down, and then find and open the drainage pipes that were specially reserved inside. Perhaps the subsequent work will become much easier.
I patted Song Jue and told him to just follow the arrangements of this professional engineer. I wasn't feeling well today, so I'd like to take a rest for a while.
After saying that, I ran to the platform at the entrance of the big hole. Of course, the opening of this underground shelter is also inside the large warehouse of the base, and there is still a covered place, so this place was not affected by the zombie outbreak yesterday.
But I still set up a tent, found a bed to lie down on, and went directly into the Yuanshazhen system page to ask the system what was going on?
As a result, the system told me innocently: "Even if you are the master of the Yuan Killing Array, you will still fall into the trap of the Yuan Killing Array."
I couldn't help but be shocked: "What do you mean Chuchu is a ghost?"
The system answered me: Do you think there is someone inside the Yuansha Formation?
I was trembling all over. Oh my god, my energy was sucked away last night? Then what will happen? Can my ability come back?
The system simply and rudely told me that I had to bear the consequences myself.
I buy it!
