Chapter 16
"This kind of website should definitely be banned" said someone from inside the class.
"Surely, the videos from earlier were all deleted. Only now did I realize that this year, there were some who had woken up with their strength. Thus, I have a strong feeling that someone from our class can already have become a Metahuman … … "
"Who do you think it is? Class monitor? I feel like the class monitor has a decent building."
"I think you have a chance!"
"Haha, really? I would talk to my parents and incite them to divorce. That way, I'll get some stress-inducing stimulation and maybe I can wake up with my powers too."
"You have no hope… …"
This group of people constantly talked about it throughout the day. One day they'll talk about someone she seems to be able to wake up to, and at another moment it's someone else who looks like that.
Suddenly, someone asked if there was any chance Lu Shu would wake up with her strength and everyone fell silent. No one dared to openly offend the others, considering Lu Shu was in the group.
Everyone felt that there was no possibility it was Lu Shu. Without considering his qualifications and looking at his physical condition, he clearly did not look like someone who could awaken his strength.
However, a more pressing issue was that other than the witches who were exposed, the others all experienced an stress before waking up. Since Lu Shu was an orphan, he had probably gone through many stressful situations and was still not awake, how could he possibly have more chances in the future?
That is impossible .
Subconsciously, everyone seemed to unanimously agree with the Gold Foundation's recognition of the Metahumans and that there were indeed people in this world who possessed supernatural powers.
As for them, they were still largely clueless about all of these incidents, not sure how to awaken their own power or they do not know the extent of this awakened power and what changes will occur to this world.
Thus, they here blindly discussed the matter, all harboring some sort of hope that they could realize their strength someday.
As Lu Shu's name mentioned, everyone had stopped their discussion.
Suddenly, someone said, "Lu Shu has to work every day but still maintains her grades in her class as one of the top five. How could he do that."
This is a point of change in the subject. Since everyone felt that Lu Shu would not even have a chance even if the entire class was up, they had decided to stop discussing the topic beforehand.
With Lu Shu's physical standards, there was no way he could become one of the Metahumi right?
"Haha, maybe he has worked very hard at home and could have burned the midnight oil last night. While you're playing, he's been revising all of this temporarily" replied the other group.
Indeed, Lu Shu's grades were always consistently good, considering he was someone who always slept during class.
Could he be one of those rumored people who looked lazy in front of everyone but worked so hard behind the scenes?
Lu Shu pouted when he saw those messages. When he thought about how his class was the biggest supplier of his distress points, he decided to send another message, "Some may seem very carefree on the front lines but what you don't know is that deep down, he is actually…"
The class chat became quiet again. Many mediocre students who tried their best every day but could not yet match Lu Shu's grades began to feel annoyed.
"Damn you, can you just shut up once …"
"From Zhou Fang's distress, + 77 …"
"From Liu Yang's distress, + 81 …"
In this short period of time, Lu Shu's distress points had risen by another 500. He planned to use those 3000 and still have 800 reserves.
Lu Shu feels that the path to wealth depends on a group of his adorable classmates!
The reason his grades are good is because he has above average intelligence and he has to admit that such people do exist in this world.
Obtaining value was one way to guarantee a future for him, but if he were to reconsider his future plans, Lu Shu guessed that he needed to put more effort into practicing his abilities.
He wanted to know the speed of his abilities without relying on the effects of the Heavenly Fruit.
Then he should sing that lullaby old lullaby …
Lu Shu tried to sing it without following the original lyrics and as expected, there was no effect at all.
"So you mean to tell me that it won't work even if I sing one word wrongly?"
What if he's deaf, won't he be fucked? You can't possibly discriminate against these deaf people ?!
Of course, it crossed his mind that because of his lyrics and rhythmic rhythm, on top of his spiritual recovery power, it was able to exhibit such magical effects.
Or was it because of the ashes that had seeped within him? The tree-like symbol on his palm was originally dull and black in color, but now it had turned white.
Lu Shu raised his hand and looked at him. To his surprise, he found that the once-naked tree unexpectedly had three new leaves growing on its branches.
Was it because of the three stars that lit up within him?
Lu Shu felt that what he had been through these few days was rather magical ..... but to him singing a lullaby to have him activate his power, it still seemed a bit too awkward right?
"Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, how I want to know who you are.
Far above the world is so high, like a diamond in the sky
When the blazing sun is gone, when he has nothing to shine
He can't see where to go if you don't blink so "
After finishing the lullaby, the distant stars seemed to have established their connection and Lu Shu again. The radiant starlight that only he could see rained down on him as if it was a fine silver snowflake that descended. Through the clouds and roof, everything reached Lu Shu in warm waves from all directions as they headed and resonated in his heart.
If one were to consider the effects of the Heavenly Fruit as a rushing current, these currents would automatically rush towards the map and gather there. His strength would continue to flow and Lu Shu would need to guide his power flowing in a certain direction or it would happen all over the place. Although the effects are slow, they are long lasting.
The heavenly fruit is not always available but its power is long-lived. Lu Shu calculated the speed at which he could illuminate the third star on the map and estimated that within half a month of practicing his strength, he could then obtain the Heavenly Fruit again.
He wondered if the speed he could ignite the stars was related to the structure of his bones at all? After eating two Refreshers, what if he would consume a few more fruits?
Lu Shu considered this method worth a try!
All he knew was scratching the tip of the iceberg. Lu Shu did not know the level at which others increased their strength or he did not know what the most efficient method for him to improve his abilities was and all he could do was experiment through trial and error error.
Suddenly, a bold idea popped into his head: Continue with the lottery, and one day he would reach a point where the Fruit of Refresh would have no more effect on him.
The better the foundation of the skeleton, the better the physical foundation. One day, he would be able to travel further and faster. This simple reason was something that even Lu Shu could understand.
Since there was a Refresh Fruit, Lu Shu felt that the more he ate, the more beneficial it was to him.
But he still needed distress points!
Lu Shu gawked at the group chat in the classroom but found no suitable opportunity.
Thus, he disappointedly reopened the 'Message in a Bottle'. . . .
