Chapter 1 Collective Awakening in the School
Donling City, at 8:30 a.m. on the last Saturday in April, in the auditorium of the Second High School, students from five classes of senior three were waiting for the unified meeting in class order. Awakening test.
The students are talking a lot, this awakening will determine their future.
The men and women in each class stood in four rows, and with a slight turn of the body, they could whisper to each other. They haven’t stopped until now, and the auditorium was buzzing with noise.
“Hey, Ye Nai, what power do you want to awaken?”
The female classmate standing next to Ye Nai pulled the sleeves of her school uniform.
"Anything is fine, I don't choose."
Ye Nai looked at the big stage in front of her with a smile. She was not worried about the test results because she woke up early three days ago.
There was a fresh wound on the knuckle of her thumb caused by a planer. She happened to buy mushrooms with roots and soil on them that day. After washing the vegetables, she found a circle of small white blisters around the wound, which was extremely itchy. , she felt uncomfortable later in the night. After the whole family went to bed in the middle of the night, she became more and more uncomfortable. When she got up and took her temperature, she found that she had a low fever.
I had a fever for two days in a row. The symptoms were not obvious, and I was the only one who knew how uncomfortable I was. Therefore, I didn’t take any medicine, and I didn’t tell my parents, for fear of being blamed by them for doing such a thing when I was about to wake up.
She drank more water and washed her face more, hoping to cool down quickly. Her mother even scolded her for using too much water. Unexpectedly, this was actually the process of awakening, and she had supernatural powers from then on.
This power behaved strangely, but the trigger was the box of mushrooms, because after she awakened, she found that they could release spores.
Strictly speaking, they are fungi, because spores are part of fungi and the propagules of fungi, and fungi are nature’s cleaners, decomposing all organic matter, promoting natural cycles, and maintaining ecological balance.
Ye Nai has also verified this.
When her fever finally subsided and she was surprised to find her awakening, the spores she released decomposed the food waste in the kitchen that she had not had time to clean up. The small amount of energy generated during the transformation process was fed back to Ye Nai, filling up a little bit of her weakness. Her body, the mycelium left after decomposition re-released the spores back into her body before dissipating, bringing another wave of abundant energy, allowing her body to recover in an instant, and her muscles felt full. Full of power.
After Ye Nai was overjoyed to wake up to such a great event in advance, she held it in and said nothing to anyone. Being calm was one of her few advantages.
She is a newbie who has just awakened. She has no one to guide her and knows nothing about the development direction and development potential of her powers. She feels that if she tells her family that she has awakened but the on-site test shows that the potential is not good, that is not the case. Bigger disappointment.
Therefore, she had suppressed the news of her early awakening until today, hoping to get the official certificate of her supernatural awakening and then perform it in public when she went home to announce the good news, giving her whole family a big surprise.
Ye Nai was thinking a lot in her heart, but her classmates were still chattering in her ears.
“I hope to awaken a power that can make money. I have to make money quickly.”
"Do you think you can wake up?"
"I definitely can." Ye Nai said in a very determined tone, not caring about the sneers coming from around her.
"I am an adult this month, and next month I will have no subsidy for minors. My grades are not good enough to be admitted to a foreign university. As long as I can awaken, any rubbish superpower will be fine."
Ye Nai stopped smiling a little and showed the same worried expression as the classmates around her, but she was still excited when she thought about her abilities.
"Oh, me too. I got the last subsidy last month. My parents have said that I eat and drink for free at home, but I am still working at home. As long as I am at home, I do all the housework. They do laundry, cooking and taking care of my younger siblings, but they don’t even take out the garbage. If I were a nanny in another house, I would still make money.”
"Why are you angry? You won't fight back. Who told them to give birth to you in the wrong month and cause you to have no subsidies before you graduate from high school? It's all your father's fault." Ye Nai nudged her with her elbow. "Pfft, Ye Nai, you have such a mouthful." The female classmate looked at her with admiration, "If I go back and say this, I can be beaten by a mixed couple."
Ye Nai shrugged, "Then there's nothing you can do, either fight back or hold back Either way, you have to think of a way out, otherwise you will suffer from uterine fibroids and breast hyperplasia.”
The female classmate shrugged uncontrollably, despite Ye Nai’s honest appearance and introverted personality. Looks like that, but sometimes it's really hard to say anything.
The chat between the two of them was heard by the male and female classmates in front and behind them, and they all looked sad. It is very difficult for adult children who have no money at home. This is a common situation in today's society. Phenomenon.
Fifty years ago, there was an invasion from another world. A large number of alien beasts and organized enemies poured out of the dimensional channels that opened all over the world. The Blue Star was riddled with holes. Many small and weak countries perished, and the country became In the enemy's territory, half of the country's population died, and industry and agriculture were greatly affected. Fortunately, there were sufficient weapons and equipment, and the soldiers and civilians were not afraid of death, but they managed to save the country.
The entire country is in ruins, productivity has dropped significantly, technology has regressed, and there is not enough food and clothing. The survivors themselves are having a hard time surviving. Of course they don’t want to have children, but the country needs a new population, so there is real money and money to do so. Give money, from the month of birth to adulthood, there is money every month, and it can really cover the cost of the child, otherwise there would be no birth rate of several children in every family today.
Parents are used to receiving state subsidies, which of course also lays the foundation for family conflicts. When their children reach adulthood but are temporarily unable to make money independently, parents will have to settle accounts with their children. This is the current situation.
Of course, there are families who love and care for their children, and there are also parents who are happy to raise their children regardless of whether they are independent or not, but they account for very few ordinary families like them.
Finally, at almost 9 o'clock, the school leaders arrived with the awakening team, and the head teachers of each class immediately maintained order in their classes.
The huge auditorium fell silent for a while, without even a cough.
It is an annual routine to organize senior high school students to conduct a unified awakening test. The school leaders have no polite words. They simply ask the head teacher to take good care of their students and come on stage in order of their student numbers to touch the awakening stones.
The Awakening Stone is a product of Blue Star since the revival of spiritual energy. Otherwise, it would have been really difficult to find awakened people in the past. However, in the fifty years since the alien invasion, only thirty or so stones have been found across the country. Every year When used, each block must be escorted by a fully equipped army, and no accidents can occur.
Ye Nai is in the third grade class of high school. The first two classes combined have more than 70 people. If one person stands there in a few seconds, the results will be obtained.
This process is very fast and beautiful. In less than a minute, the awakened person will have various colors of light representing the type of superpower. The richer the color and the brighter the light, it means the superpower. The better the potential.
Six people were awakened in one class.
Seven people were awakened in the second class.
It’s the turn of class three.
Ye Nai’s student number is No. 19, and 2 of the 18 people in front of her have awakened.
"No. 19, Ye Nai." The head teacher called the name with the class roster.
"Arrived."
"Go."
