"Su Jingyao, do you want some candy? I'll treat you."
Zhang Ping was lying on the desk, holding a green six-sided crystal in his hand, squinting at his deskmate Su Jingyao, and asked.
Su Jingyao glanced at the six-sided crystal and said one word expressionlessly: "Get out."
"If you don't want it, don't. There's no need to be so angry." Zhang Ping took back his hand and complained in a low voice.
Su Jingyao's forehead veins bulged slightly, and she said angrily: "Zhang Ping, although you have awakened a useless ability, I understand your feelings very well, but if you leave school and still ask people around like you are now, believe it or not, you will be beaten to death.
.”
"The waste ability is actually quite good. I'm just asking you, how could you ask other people?" Zhang Ping whispered.
Su Jingyao rolled her eyes at Zhang Ping speechlessly, and then continued to fill out the graduation application form.
"Are you really planning to graduate?" Zhang Ping glanced at him and asked.
Su Jingyao said calmly: "I have mastered all the knowledge in school, and my awakened abilities are very suitable for combat. Only by experiencing real actual combat can I become stronger and stronger. Joining the patrol team is a decision I made very early."
"But you are only seventeen years old." Zhang Ping sighed.
Su Jingyao looked at Zhang Ping with disdain and said: "Zhang Chen next door had applied for graduation a week ago. He has probably left the city with the investigation team to fight against the alienated beasts. He is only 16 years old."
"Hmm, what a genius." Zhang Ping sighed.
Su Jingyao sighed slightly when she saw that Zhang Ping didn't show any expression of envy or jealousy.
Zhang Ping was also one of the hardest working students in the class at the beginning. On the day he awakened his ability, he frantically experimented with his abilities. However, his ability was soon judged as useless by the examiner. Zhang Ping suffered a major blow and even skipped classes.
a few days.
When Zhang Ping came back to class again, he was already lying flat like this.
"Although your ability is rated as useless, there are so many mutant creatures in the world. Maybe one day I will find a creature that is willing to accept you, and then there will be room for your ability to be used..." Su Jingyao couldn't bear Zhang Ping to give up on himself,
He looked at Zhang Ping and said seriously.
Zhang Ping lay on the table and said nonchalantly: "Forget it, what kind of creature do you think would completely leave its life to the control of others? I will give it to you, do you dare to eat it?"
"..."
Su Jingyao was speechless when she thought of the six-sided crystal in Zhang Ping's hand just now.
Just seeing the six-sided crystal made her feel repelled. It felt like seeing shit and she couldn't help but want to stay away.
"Okay, I have accepted the fact that I am a waste. In fact, waste is not bad. If I go back to farming honestly, maybe I will live longer than you who fight and kill." Zhang Ping said with a smile.
He really thinks so.
After all, whether it is a patrol team, a survey team, or a free adventurer, the casualty rate is not low.
And if you stay in the city to work as a farmer, although the treatment is very poor, you can barely survive, and the casualty rate is much lower than that of the combat profession.
If you want to retire and retire, staying in the city is the safest option.
Zhang Ping was a member of a private search and rescue team in his previous life.
One night, I received a rescue mission and encountered a landslide while searching for a missing traveler in the mountains. He died on the spot.
By the time he reacted, he had already traveled back to Zhang Ping, who was angry to death with him.
After absorbing Zhang Ping's memory, he had only one thought: isn't it just to awaken useless abilities? Is it necessary to piss himself to death?
Although he was quite grateful to the original owner, otherwise he might not be able to travel through time, and he would really die.
But one thing to say is that the original Zhang Ping's psychology was too fragile.
As for abilities, he didn't have any abilities in his previous life, so he still lived a shameless life. Since it was a useless ability, just pretend he didn't have it.
But Zhang Ping's awakened ability is really interesting.
He can consume physical and mental energy to create a six-sided crystal. Any creature that is willing to eat this six-sided crystal will be completely controlled by him, and both body and soul will become his private property.
Um.
It sounds strong.
But there is a prerequisite, that is, the target is truly willing, otherwise even if it is eaten, it will be completely pulled out.
In its predecessor, it tried many creatures, such as kittens, puppies, snakes, mice, etc., but all ended in failure without exception.
For this reason, the predecessor even tortured several animals in an extreme way and forced them to accept six-sided crystals, but the result was no change. It seemed that rejection at the soul level was absolute.
Finally, the predecessor became more and more angry as he thought about it, and spat out a mouthful of blood in despair. He was pissed to death by his own ability.
Of course Zhang Ping will not be so extreme or extreme now.
Although his ability has no effect, he doesn't really have any ideas.
The six-sided crystal he made is actually quite beautiful. Can it be polished and sold as gemstones?
After all, rich people have unique tastes. What if they can be sold for a good price?
After class, Zhang Ping packed up his things and returned to the dormitory area with Su Jingyao.
He and Su Jingyao were both orphans and had been living in the school dormitory since they entered school.
"Don't wait for me tomorrow, I will move out of the dormitory tonight." Su Jingyao said as she walked.
Zhang Ping nodded and said with a smile: "Well, take care along the way."
"The same to you."
Su Jingyao glanced at Zhang Ping, the look of reluctance disappearing deep in her eyes.
The two separated at the door of the dormitory. Su Jingyao entered the girls' dormitory and Zhang Ping entered the boys' dormitory.
Zhang Ping's dormitory is on the fifth floor. There were originally three roommates, but the three roommates failed to awaken. The original Zhang Ping left the school a week before he was so angry that he died, so now he is the only one in the dormitory.
"Compared to the failure of awakening, this thing is actually much better."
Zhang Ping opened the dormitory door, thinking of the confused and painful expressions of several roommates when they left school, and complained in his heart.
He put down his backpack and sat cross-legged on the bed after taking a shower.
He raised one hand, and green particles gradually appeared in his palm. As his physical and mental energy was rapidly consumed, the particles quickly grew in size, and finally turned into a six-sided crystal.
According to the examiner's analysis, his ability is a composite ability. According to the naming rules of superpowers, it should be called the "Greed Gem".
Because this ability is too greedy.
Want everything, want to control everything.
But precisely because of being too greedy, all living things will instinctively reject the Greedy Gem, and instead it becomes a useless ability.
"Test the hardness first!"
Zhang Ping held the six-sided crystal and said to himself.
If this kind of crystal is hard enough, it may be used to make something, such as chain mail, which is fully inlaid with six-sided crystals, and its defensive power should not be bad.
He took out the knife he carried with him and tried to cut the crystal.
Unfortunately, the hardness of the crystal is not as high as it looks. The knife quickly cut the crystal in half. Judging from the feedback during cutting, the hardness should be about the same as bone.
Zhang Ping was a little disappointed, but when he saw the cut crystal, he was actually a little greedy.
I really don’t blame him for being greedy.
After the crystal is cut, the surface is smooth and crystal clear, and the color is bright, a bit like soft candy and a bit like white jelly with added chlorophyll.
This thing looks pretty good, but it seems to be quite delicious.
etc!
Zhang Ping was suddenly startled, then his eyes fell on the cut crystal, and he couldn't help thinking: "What will happen if I eat the Greedy Gem myself?"
Can you control yourself perfectly?
Isn’t that the legendary 100% control over the body?
Obviously, this is a path that has never been imagined before!
Do you want to give it a try?
Anyway, the worst case scenario is that you can only control yourself.
The more Zhang Ping thought about it, the more excited he became. He simply pinched the cut six-sided crystal, opened his mouth and swallowed it in one gulp.
Other creatures would instinctively reject six-sided crystals, but he would not reject them.
After swallowing the crystal, he was keenly aware of slight changes in his body.
This change is hard to describe, it feels a bit like man and sword becoming one.
It can only be experienced but cannot be expressed in words.
After a long time, Zhang Ping opened his eyes and thought: "Go get a glass of water!"
Next, it was not him controlling his body at all, but his body automatically pouring water.
This feeling is wonderful, as if the body is moving on its own without his need to control it.
Although he still has feelings and consumes his own physical strength, the process of pouring water is irreversible. Even if he wants to go to the toilet or do something else in the middle, his body will insist on pouring water as long as he does not change the order.
"Do 500 push-ups!"
Zhang Ping raised his glass to drink water and ended the previous order.
Then an idea occurred to me and I gave the order again, so my body began to do push-ups automatically.
After 500 push-ups, Zhang Ping lay on the ground like a dead dog and couldn't get up, but he showed a happy smile.
Because the predecessor himself was an exercise fanatic, this body could originally do 250 push-ups, but now by command, he can do 500 push-ups.
This has exceeded the limit of willpower.
If there were no orders, Zhang Ping estimated that he would only be able to do 300 push-ups at most before reaching the limit of his will.
Although this ability is still useless, superpowers are really interesting.
Zhang lay flat for half an hour, then got up and dusted himself off.
Even if he can control his body to move with his thoughts, his body is still an ordinary body and is still useless against the invulnerable alienated beasts in the wild.
But he was not disappointed. After all, he was mentally prepared to stay in the city and farm.
If this ability can be used for farming, it may not be used for other purposes when there is more physical strength in the future.
After taking a shower again, he went downstairs to eat in the cafeteria, and then returned to the dormitory to rest.
The next day, early in the morning.
Zhang Ping was still sleeping, but his eyes had opened on their own. He got dressed, left the dormitory building, and started running when he arrived at the playground.
This is what Zhang Ping set up last night. He got up at 4 o'clock in the morning for a run.
Although his consciousness was still sleeping, his body started to move on its own.
The state is somewhat similar to sleepwalking.
When he woke up at six o'clock, he was already sitting in the cafeteria, with white porridge and three steamed buns in front of him.
When he looked at the steamed buns and white porridge, his eyes couldn't help but light up slightly, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, revealing a smile.
"That's great!"
In fact, Zhang Ping just gave it a try. Unexpectedly, his body actually performed all the operations according to his orders.
But he also has a little doubt, that is, since his consciousness is sleeping, why can his body move?
Is it subconscious?
No matter, since this method works, it will be convenient to exercise in the future.
"Classmate Luo Shiyu, good morning!"
"Classmate Luo Shiyu, I have prepared breakfast for you."
"Classmate Luo Shiyu is so perfect. Wow, I just want to cry when I think about not being able to see classmate Luo Shiyu after graduation."
"I wonder which of the three teams Luo Shiyu plans to join after graduation?"
At this time, many classmates not far away made a noise. Zhang Ping was not surprised and knew that it was the school beauty from the next class.
Luo Shiyu, the class beauty of Class 2 next door, is also the school belle of Pearl Ability Academy. The most terrifying thing is that she kills both men and women. She has admirers not only from her male classmates, but also from her female classmates.
For example, Zhang Ping's former roommate was Luo Shiyu's suitor, but after the awakening failed, they left the school in despair.
Zhang Ping was thinking about Luo Shiyu. He raised his head while eating steamed buns, and his pupils shrank sharply in the next second.
He quickly lowered his head and drank the porridge to hide his inner shock.
In his memory, Luo Shiyu was a girl with a slim figure and beautiful appearance.
But just now he saw a huge fox that was two meters upright. It had a girl's human skin on its forehead and stood so arrogantly among everyone. But everyone was unaware and looked at it with admiration.
How is this going?
Zhang Ping was in a state of confusion, and Luo Shiyu walked slowly amidst the compliments of many classmates.
"Good morning, Zhang Ping!" the huge fox greeted hoarsely as he passed by.
Zhang Ping ordered himself to stay calm in his heart, and nodded without changing his expression: "Classmate Luo Shiyu, good morning."
Fortunately, 'Luo Shiyu' did not stop, but continued walking forward, greeting other students along the way.
Zhang Ping finished his breakfast at a normal speed, then got up and left the cafeteria as usual.
