Chapter 7 Fusion of Superpowers
After eating the fried rice, Wang Mingyang quickly paid and stood up, grabbing his book and walking towards the rental house without stopping.
A five-story residential building soon appeared in front of us. There was a convenience store downstairs, and a woman with a peaceful face was sitting in the store.
Seeing Wang Mingyang coming over, the woman smiled: "Mingyang, you came back so late!"
"Aunt Liu, I just came back from a business trip, why don't you close the shop yet?" Wang Mingyang was still thinking about the space problem in his mind. He was stunned when he heard this, then raised his head and smiled.
"It's only around ten o'clock now, let's wait for a while." Aunt Liu said with a smile on her face.
Wang Mingyang thought that the end would come tomorrow. If he couldn't collect the pieces tonight, he would probably have to squat in the house for several days.
I simply walked into the convenience store, picked out a lot of packaged food and mineral water, bought two cigarettes, and spent all the little money I had in WeChat, leaving Aunt Liu with a few yuan less.
"Mingyang, why did you buy so many things? Just tell Auntie what you want to eat. There is no need to buy so much to keep in the house!" Aunt Liu frowned slightly and watched Wang Mingyang buy five items in a hurry. It's something worth six hundred yuan, which makes me feel a little distressed.
"It's okay, Aunt Liu. You can eat it at home anytime, so I don't need to bother you!"
"What's the trouble? It's just a few steps up and down."
"Well, Aunt Liu, I'll go up first. You can rest early."
After paying and holding a bunch of things, Wang Mingyang said hello.
"Okay, get some rest early." Aunt Liu shook her head and stopped insisting.
Wang Mingyang turned around, opened the corridor door, and stepped up.
Aunt Liu is the owner of this small residential building. The first floor is a shop, and the second to fourth floors are rented to nearby college students.
I live on the fifth floor and there is a small terrace on the roof.
He is kind-hearted, the rent is moderate, and he has a good reputation among college students nearby.
Wang Mingyang has been living here since his internship in his senior year, but he usually leaves early and comes home late, so he doesn't have much interaction with his landlord, Aunt Liu.
However, in Wang Mingyang's impression, Aunt Liu also had a daughter. He had lived here for nearly two years and had not seen her a few times. Within a week of the zombie outbreak in his last life, he never went downstairs, and he never met Aunt Liu again until his death. He probably either turned into a zombie or was buried in a corpse.
Wang Mingyang returned to the third floor with some sighs, took out the key and opened the door. What he saw was a familiar small single room with one bedroom and one bathroom. He put all the things he just bought in the corner, closed the door and locked the small lock.
Wang Mingyang solemnly placed a few books on the small desk against the wall, sat down and took a deep breath to start tonight's reading journey.
Opening "A Brief History of Time", Wang Mingyang started reading from the previous chapter.
"Our current ideas about the motion of objects come from..."
…
At some point, a pretty girl with a high ponytail rode a pink motorcycle and parked in front of the convenience store. She skillfully turned off the engine, got off the car, took off her cute pink helmet, and shouted into the store playfully, " mom'.
Aunt Liu looked up and saw the girl with a bright smile on her face: "Xiao Yu'er, are you off work?"
Xiao Yu'er's name is Su Yu. Her father was a policeman, but unfortunately he died heroically during an arrest operation. So Su Yu and Aunt Liu had been dependent on each other since childhood, and the mother and daughter lived by collecting rent and running a small convenience store.
"Yes, Mom, have you seen Brother Mingyang?" Su Yu asked without looking back while pushing the battery car into the corridor.
"Mingyang just came back for a while, why did you suddenly ask about him?" Aunt Liu was a little confused.
"Oh, I met him in the library in the afternoon, but this idiot didn't recognize me."
Su Yu pursed his cherry lips and glanced outside at a window on the third floor. When he saw the light was bright, he returned to the convenience store.
"Oh, no wonder I saw him coming back with a book in his arms. It turned out that he went to the library to borrow books."
Aunt Liu nodded somewhat suddenly, stretched out her finger, and poked her daughter on the forehead.
"You damn girl, how can you call me that? Mingyang is usually busy with work and leaves early and comes home late. I haven't seen you many times. Isn't it normal that I didn't recognize you?"
"Ouch, Mom, don't poke me in the head, I'll become stupid!"
Su Yu covered his forehead, stepped forward to hold Aunt Liu's arm, and said softly.
"Aren't you stupid enough? I can't even look at you and you're not that smart."
Aunt Liu struggled for a moment with a look of disgust on her face, but there was deep endearment in her eyes.
"Mom, how could you say that about your own daughter?"
"Yes, isn't it me?"
"Hmph, I won't tell you anymore. I'm going to go upstairs and wash up. I'm exhausted today and I have to go to work tomorrow!"
Su Yu shook Aunt Liu's arm reluctantly, pouted, turned around and ran upstairs with a flick of her ponytail.
"Hey, slow down, don't fall!" Aunt Liu couldn't help but shouted nervously when she saw Su Yu turning around and running quickly.
Su Yu waved his hand without looking back and disappeared into the corridor.
Aunt Liu smiled dumbly and shook her head. Her girl's fiery temper was probably inherited from her father.
Regardless of Aunt Liu's sighs downstairs, Su Yu ran upstairs and slowed down as he approached the third floor.
When I walked to the third floor, I looked at the door to the right of the stairs. There was a faint light coming from the crack in the door.
Su Yu hesitated for a moment, but still refrained from knocking on the door. He pursed his lips, snorted and turned to walk upstairs. After a while, the sound of rushing water came from the room on the fifth floor.
Late at night, Wang Mingyang rubbed his temples and raised his head with a look of helplessness.
Just now, the system prompt sounded, but the content made Wang Mingyang a little disappointed.
[Ding! Detected that the host is reading "A Brief History of Time" for the first time, extracting A-level superpower "Mustard Space" fragment +1, Mustard Space superpower: 1/8, reward reading value 10,000 points. ]
The reading value was completely beyond his expectations. 10,000 points for the first reading, so nice!
These reading values are enough to upgrade the system.
Mr. Huo's book is really good.
The A-level "Mustard Space" superpower is very useful in the end times, but what he wants more now is the "Space Cutting" fragment.
And the mustard space is also a fragment. Even if he keeps extracting the mustard space fragments, he needs to read it at least eight times.
During this period, he has to read and think while understanding...
But when he thought that the space cutting fragment was stuck at 9/10, the corners of his mouth twitched. He has read "Dimension Space" more than ten times.
The last two times, there was no gain. The reading value of "A Brief History of Time" alone is ten times that of "Dimensional Space"...
Thinking of that scene, Wang Mingyang just felt tears, and couldn't stop flowing...
With a sigh, Wang Mingyang closed the book, stood up, took out a bottle of mineral water and drank it. He glanced at the "Three Hundred Children's Songs" on the table from the corner of his eye, and suddenly a light flashed in his mind.
"System, can I fuse superpowers now?"
[Ding! The host's reading value now has a total of 11901 points, and the basic fusion consumes 100 reading points. 】
"Fusion of basic superpowers!"
[Ding! Please select the superpower you want to fuse. The basic fusion can fuse up to 3 superpowers at a time. 】
Looking through the superpowers in the bookshelf carefully, 'Bubble Technique', 'Communication Technique', 'Underwater Breathing Technique', 'Jumping Technique', 'Silking Technique', 'Freezing Technique', 'Turtle Shell Technique', 'Light Body Technique', 'Illumination Technique', 'Firefly Technique'.
There are ten E-level abilities in total. It goes without saying that these abilities are limited in power, after all, they are extracted from children's books.
Wang Mingyang paced in the room, and after thinking for a while, he chose three abilities.
"System, choose to fuse 'Bubble Technique', 'Turtle Shell Technique' and 'Freezing Technique'!"
[Ding! Consume 100 reading points, fusion begins...]
