Who says those who retire at the speed of light are not heroes?

Xu Linglan stared at the smile on her face for a long time, then slowly lowered her head and lowered her voice a bit, "Then I won't say bad things about him anymore."

..........................................

During these three days, Xu Wanyue has been accompanying Xu Linglan to familiarize herself with many things. After all, the world has changed a lot in the past one or two years. She also took Xu Linglan to visit her uncle. Her uncle and aunt were also very happy. Her aunt also kept asking Xu Wanyue when she would be free to bring her boyfriend to dinner. Xu Wanyue said she would wait until he was free next time.

She also accompanied Xu Linglan to the amusement park, and ate a lot of things that the two sisters had wanted to eat before but were reluctant to. Xu Wanyue always wanted Xu Linglan to eat more because she was too thin now.

Three days later, Lin Cheng arrived at Xu Wanyue's house. Xu Wanyue was cooking dumplings. Lin Cheng had sent her a message a long time ago, so she also cooked Lin Cheng's dumplings. She and Xu Linglan made the dumplings together yesterday, with sauerkraut and pork filling.

Lin Cheng ate twenty!

He looked at Xu Linglan who was sitting opposite him. The two sisters really looked too much alike. Xu Linglan was like a young girl version of Xu Wanyue, only looking a little more childish, and her figure was not as fair as Xu Wanyue's.

Lin Cheng didn't have any strange thoughts. First, she was Xu Wanyue's biological sister. Second, the mental age of the little girl in front of him was only seventeen years old. Seeking love from someone else was the behavior of a trash person.

Xu Linglan was wearing a JK uniform. Her white shirt had a lake green bow tie on the collar and her skirt was also lake green. Her calves under the skirt were wearing white silk calf socks and black Mary Jane shoes with thick heels.

Lin Cheng knew that Xu Wanyue had some JK girl-style plaid skirts, but she rarely saw Xu Wanyue wearing them. Xu Wanyue had told Lin Cheng in a casual chat before that these skirts were ones that her sister used to like very much but she was reluctant to buy them because each skirt was very expensive and it took a long time to make. After she had money, she would always buy one or two every month so that she could give them to her sister when she woke up. Anyway, the sisters often wore each other's clothes.

Lin Cheng had roughly explained to Xu Wanyue the specific method of controlling abilities, so he had to take Xu Linglan away for a few days. Xu Wanyue was very confident in him, so Lin Cheng looked at Xu Linglan who was sitting there, "If you are full, come with me."

Xu Linglan stood up, her steps jumping with joy. After all, being able to control her own superpowers was certainly an extremely exciting thing. Moreover, according to her sister, her superpowers were very powerful. Even Lin Cheng in front of her gave her a very high evaluation.

Xu Wanyue sent Lin Cheng and Xu Linglan downstairs. Lin Cheng came by bike. He got on the bike and handed the helmet to Xu Linglan. Xu Linglan put it on obediently and jumped on the motorcycle. However, Lin Cheng did not start the motorcycle immediately. He hesitated for a while and said, "You can reach out and hold my shoulders."

Xu Linglan did as she was told. Lin Cheng said, "If you feel scared, tell me and I'll drive slower."

But a minute later, Lin Cheng realized that he was completely wrong. When he drove to 40 mph, Xu Linglan's eyes were full of excitement, and her fingertips tightly grasped his shoulders, "Can you go faster?"

Lin Cheng drove at sixty mph.

"Can it be faster?!"

When Lin Cheng sped up again, holding Lin Cheng's shoulders could no longer give Xu Linglan a sense of security. She subconsciously hugged Lin Cheng's waist tightly, cheering. She seemed not to feel afraid at all, as if she was on a roller coaster. Lin Cheng quickly took her to Lu Xiaoxiao's home.

Lu Lingling had been waiting there for a long time.

Lin Cheng and Xu Linglan got out of the car without explaining too much. When they saw Lu Lingling who was still sparring with Lu Xiaoxiao, they said, "Take me to the place I told you."

Lu Lingling nodded gently, and Lu Xiaoxiao looked up at him, "She is...Xu Wanyue's sister?"

Before Lin Cheng could answer, Xu Linglan looked at Lu Xiaoxiao and said, "Hello, sister. My name is Xu Linglan."

Her smile was too sweet. Lu Xiaoxiao also smiled at her and stretched out her hand. “I’m Lu Xiaoxiao, your sister’s good friend.”

The two girls, one big and one small, shook hands. Then Lu Xiaoxiao looked at Lin Cheng. Lin Cheng had told her what time he would leave. She walked up to Lin Cheng and asked, "How many days will you be gone?"

"It depends on how fast this guy understands it. If it's fast, it'll take two or three days. If it's slow, it'll take a week."

"Long time." Lu Xiaoxiao reached out and grabbed the collar of his shirt.

"You can also send messages and chat, if there is a signal."

Lu Xiaoxiao took another step forward. Lin Cheng couldn't retreat, so her chest almost hit his chest. She raised her head, her eyes full of resentment. Lin Cheng lowered his head and tapped her lips lightly, "Okay, I'll be back as soon as possible."

Only then did Lu Xiaoxiao let go of her hand.

Lu Lingling looked at the two people in front of her and snapped her fingers. Lin Cheng also grabbed Xu Linglan's hand at this moment to avoid any accidents during the space transmission process. Before Xu Linglan had time to condemn the bastard's behavior on behalf of her sister, her vision went dark and she felt dizzy. When her vision became clear again, she was shocked by the scene in front of her.

Because the two of them were currently between snow-capped mountains.

194 The Star of Misfortune

City S.

City S is the largest coastal city. Due to some special factors, it is not under the jurisdiction of the alliance. The local organizations of people with abilities are a mixed bag, and it is a gathering place for many organizations outside the rules.

At this moment, on the Pearl Beach in S City, a group of people with special abilities tied on their wrists were standing neatly on the beach. The sea breeze was howling wildly, and everyone was looking silently at the old man in front of them who was looking up at the starry sky and muttering to himself.

The old man stared at the starry sky for a long time before he finally spoke slowly.

"Although the star disk is a bit strange and unclear, the Pluto has appeared. The evil demon... The Pluto is still very weak at the moment. You go and bring him back."

The old man raised his hand and pointed. A star appeared from the tip of his finger. The star fell on the forehead of the evil demon he was talking about and merged into his head. In an instant, his head had an approximate address.

Damn it, why are we in this uninhabited area of ​​the snowy mountains?

"What exactly is Pluto?"

"The previous Pluto Star died due to madness. The so-called Pluto Star brought destruction with it when it came into the world. However, destruction and rebirth have always been mutually causal. As long as we master the power of the Pluto Star and use it properly, we can satisfy all the wishes in the world. With this Pluto Star, our Misfortune Star will become the first resistance organization... It's just around the corner."

The man whom he called the evil demon vaguely understood something. He suddenly recalled the crazy Mingxing from decades ago, and a trace of fear appeared in his eyes.

The old man read the fear in his eyes and smiled, "The power of Pluto is still very weak at the moment, don't worry."

....................................

Xu Linglan felt the coldness penetrate deep into her bones in an instant.

The view was all white, with snow falling sparsely around them. She got goose bumps all over her body at once, curled up in the cold, hugged her arms tightly, and looked at Lin Cheng in front of her, "Why are we here?"

"Because if you don't control your power well, it may cause chaos. There are not many people here, so it is convenient for you to practice." Lin Cheng stretched out his hand and gently pressed on her forehead. Xu Linglan was stunned. After a moment, she seemed to feel that something in her body that had been imprisoning her slowly disappeared.

"It's so cold..." Xu Linglan's voice was trembling.

"You can try to imagine that you are now a person who is not afraid of the cold." Lin Cheng said slowly.

Xu Linglan was startled and tried to imagine it this way. Sure enough, after a while, she no longer felt the cold, but her limbs were still frozen stiff. Lin Cheng simply sat down in the snow and said, "Imagine it more completely. For example, the cold will not freeze your body, but make you feel very comfortable."

Xu Linglan did as she was told. Gradually, her body was no longer so stiff. The cold wind blowing on her body was as gentle as a summer night breeze. Her eyes were full of surprise and curiosity. She also imitated Lin Cheng and sat down cross-legged in the snow, with her skirt falling and her white and tender calves crossed.

"Okay, now start listening to the class. Just listen to me carefully and don't let your mind wander."

Lin Cheng had just finished saying this when the snow on the ground beside them suddenly floated up and turned into a huge snow rabbit. Lin Cheng looked at Xu Linglan in front of him. Xu Linglan stuck out her tongue. Lin Cheng looked at her dimly, "You have a really rich imagination."

"I'll be good." Xu Linglan replied hurriedly.

"Let me first give you some basic knowledge about people with special abilities."

"So-called ability users are humans who have awakened energy cores in their bodies. There are many opportunities for awakening, and genetics accounts for a part of it. For example, if both parents are ability users, then their children are likely to be ability users as well, and may inherit their abilities, or awaken the same type of abilities, but stronger ones."

"One of the remaining two parts is natural awakening. There is no age limit for natural awakening. It can happen at birth or in your seventies or eighties. It can happen at any moment."

"The last part is awakening after a major stimulus, which may be extreme grief or ecstasy."

"Every ability user has an energy core, and the energy core is the basis of their abilities. The function of the energy core is to store energy and stimulate energy. Different abilities will be derived from different energy cores. The current grading system of the alliance is actually very imperfect. It is roughly divided into spiritual system, elemental system, physical system, rule system, and unknown system."

"The imperfection of their classification lies in the ability rating. It takes 5000 energy points to reach A-level, points to reach S-level, and more than points to reach SS-level. This classification system is too old, because most of the ability users in the past were relatively weak. After so many years of the Abyss, the energy of the Abyss creatures has spread to our world after their death, allowing the ability users in our world to improve very quickly. So you just listen to this classification system. I guess a new classification system will be updated in a while."

"Have you ever played online games? You can think of the abilities of a person with special abilities as skills, and the energy of a person with special abilities as a blue bar. When the blue bar is used up, it takes time to replenish. I think you can understand what I mean by that, right?"

Xu Linglan nodded obediently.

"There is only one way for a person with special abilities to improve. By using their abilities to continuously purify the impurities in their energy cores so that they can store more energy, they can improve their levels. However, some people's abilities are relatively weak. Even if their energy cores are purified to the extreme, their energy can only be increased to 50000 at most and cannot be improved any further."

"And what I'm going to talk about next is your abilities."

"Your ability is not to make your words come true. To be more precise, it should be called distorting reality. You can use the power of imagination to mobilize power to change objective things, so your ability should be classified as unknown. For example... now you imagine that this snow rabbit will grow wings and fly."

Lin Cheng pointed at the rabbit beside him. Xu Linglan looked at the little rabbit that grew out of the snow. In an instant, the little rabbit grew wings and flew in the air. There was unconcealable joy in her eyes.

"Try teleporting again." Lin Cheng looked into her eyes.

In an instant, Xu Linglan's body in front of him disappeared, and in an instant she appeared ten meters away from Lin Cheng. She turned her head in surprise and looked around. Lin Cheng keenly saw that she had only consumed 100 points of energy.

"Spit out another fireball, and remember to imagine that the fireball won't burn you. The best way here is... you can directly imagine a skill used by a character in a fictional story that you have seen. In your subconscious, they won't be hurt by these skills, and neither will you."

Xu Linglan's cheeks immediately puffed up, and then Lin Cheng watched her spit out a huge fireball. The snow on the ground began to melt. After a while, Xu Linglan walked back to his side, "Anything else?"

"Floating, teleporting, elements, spirit, physical strength, extreme speed... You can use your imagination to figure it out, but before you imagine all this, tell yourself that you will not die no matter what, so as to avoid killing yourself."

Xu Linglan nodded obediently, so Lin Cheng watched Xu Linglan float in front of him. A pair of wings grew behind her and she began to fly in the sky. Soon she returned to Lin Cheng. Countless roses suddenly grew in the snow, and butterflies transformed from the snow fluttered around. Lin Cheng was even in a trance for a moment, and saw that Xu Linglan in front of him turned into Xu Wanyue in an instant. Oh yes, it should only take a little energy for her to change her body directly.

“Don’t just change into someone else’s appearance…” Lin Cheng couldn’t help but complain. At this moment, the shirt on Xu Linglan’s chest was bulging. She stuck out her tongue and quickly changed back to her original shape. But she seemed to suddenly think of something, and her clothes began to change. The plaid skirt and shirt turned into an elegant black long skirt. Xu Linglan felt dizzy. Would she even save money on buying clothes in the future?

But it was clear that her ability was not that stable. Lin Cheng saw that her black dress suddenly began to break and soon turned into a pile of torn cloth. She widened her eyes and hurriedly reached out to cover her chest with her hands. She put her legs together and looked up at the sky. "Matter transformation is a very complex ability. It is not enough to rely on imagination alone. You also need to understand the molecular structure. After you fully understand it, you can even turn stone into gold... although it will consume a lot of energy."

"Don't look around..."

"Who would watch..." Lin Cheng's voice was weak. When her black skirt began to melt, he had already looked up at the sky. "You should slowly figure out how to turn those pieces of your clothes back into your own clothes. The material must be the same. Your energy cannot support you to directly violate the laws of physics, so..."

The snow rabbits flying in the sky fell down, the roses growing on the ground had all withered, the butterflies that turned from the snow turned into flying snow again, and Xu Linglan tried hard for a long time and finally changed her clothes back to their original shape. While she was putting on her clothes, she kept looking at Lin Cheng out of the corner of her eye, and she felt inexplicably relieved when she saw that he was always looking up at the sky.

She stood up and looked at Lin Cheng, "Is this what you want to teach me?"

"The key point I want to teach you is to learn to control your ability and not activate it. Otherwise, if you have terrible thoughts and you don't have enough energy and force it to activate, it will directly backfire on your energy core, and you will either go crazy or die. Well, you play first. When you have used up all your energy, we will move on to the next step of training."

Lin Cheng lay in the snow, looking at the sky quietly.

He roughly estimated that he would have to stay in the snow for at least three or four days to barely teach Xu Linglan how to control energy points within 10,000. At that time, he would only need to add a safety barrier for her.

I missed my computer, my soft big bed, and the beef noodles downstairs so much. Lin Cheng took out his cell phone and took a look. There was no signal.

It's so frustrating. Besides teaching her how to use her abilities, there's also a lot of troublesome cleanup work to do.

If she wasn't Xu Wanyue's sister, Lin Cheng wouldn't want to bother with her and let those guys in the alliance worry about it.

195 Why Are You So Stupid?

　Compared to Lin Cheng's madness, Xu Linglan was having a lot of fun in the snow. She kept trying out various abilities and even built a castle several meters high with the ice and snow on the ground. She also tried to imagine that her speed could become very fast, but she soon realized that if she wanted to be very fast, she also needed to imagine that her physical fitness could support such a speed and resist wind resistance, so her ability was indeed particularly abnormal.

Xu Linglan suddenly thought of something interesting. She began to imagine that she had the ability to read minds. Looking at Lin Cheng on the side, she probably heard Lin Cheng's inner voice, "So boring... So boring, so boring, so boring..."

Lin Cheng looked up at her, but said nothing. He silently said in his heart, "Don't read my mind."

"How do you know?" Xu Linglan was stunned.

"Because my ability is higher than yours, I will know if you use your ability on me. Also...try not to pry into the past, and don't try to predict the future, or your head will explode."

"You can also... predict the future?"

"In theory, if you can calculate the laws governing the operation of all objective things, you can predict the future to a certain extent. If nothing unexpected happens, it won't be long before someone comes knocking on your door."

"Come to your door?"

“Among people with special abilities, there are those who are similar to prophets. Many people dream of having abilities like yours. As long as we capture you and brainwash you through mind control, you’ll be like a wishing machine. You can get whatever you want… So it’s so troublesome!”

Lin Cheng began to roll around in the snow.

Xu Linglan suddenly felt a little uneasy, as if the world of people with special abilities was not as easy as she had imagined. But after a moment, she heard Lin Cheng's voice again, "I will protect you."

Xu Linglan turned off her mind-reading ability, and her eyes began to emit lasers, blasting two small holes in the top of the opposite mountain. Then she suddenly thought of something, and holy light suddenly emerged in front of her chest. The blazing light directly melted an entire straight line of snow in front of her, but a moment later her head suddenly felt a sharp pain.

Lin Cheng walked to her side, stretched out his hand and patted her head, "Okay, the energy is exhausted, now give me your hand..."

Xu Linglan obediently stretched out her white and tender little hand, and Lin Cheng grasped her hand in his palm, "Close your eyes, feel the energy core in your body, use the weak strength you just recovered to make little rabbits, and feel the operation of the energy core when you make little rabbits."

Xu Linglan did as she was told. Soon she sensed the trajectory of the energy movement. Lin Cheng said, "Now you start to pile up little rabbits, but without moving the energy..."

She began to imagine, but the energy still started to flow subconsciously, and the little rabbits piled up again.

Now Xu Linglan understood what Lin Cheng meant. If she couldn't control the energy, the energy would automatically operate and change the surrounding things. Lin Cheng took out his mobile phone and handed the method of opening the previous energy node to the girl in front of him, "Do it according to it. If you can't figure it out, I'll help you open it again..."

Opening up all the energy nodes will allow her to manipulate energy more easily.

After Lin Cheng finished speaking, he lay back down in the snow. Xu Linglan began to pry the energy nodes according to the method in the document, but normally this method would take at least half a month. Xu Wanyue had spent a very long time on it before.

Lin Cheng lay in the snow for four hours before Xu Linglan finally pried open an energy node. It wasn't even opened yet, and her patience seemed to have reached its limit. She looked at Lin Cheng and said, "It will take a long time to open all fifty. I'm going to die..."

"Yes, it took a long time." Lin Cheng's voice was weak. "I can help you open it, but it will be more comfortable when the energy nodes are opened. Please be patient."

"It's more comfortable, why should I endure it...?"

"Ah... I hope you can be good for a while and not call me a pervert or a bastard or something like that. I just want to save time... otherwise it will take half a month for you to get through."

"I seem to have an impression..." Xu Linglan seemed to have the impression that Lin Cheng helped Xu Wanyue to open up the energy node. She bit her lip lightly, "It's okay, I will read your mind to determine whether you are a pervert."

"Thank you." Lin Cheng stretched out his fingers and placed them on his shoulders. He easily used the power of fate to pry open her first energy node. Then his fingertips began to wander over her body. Every time he opened a node, Xu Linglan's body trembled. She closed her legs, grasped the hem of her skirt tightly with her fingers, bit her lips, and her cheeks flushed.

Xu Linglan looked at Lin Cheng quietly, and used her weak energy to activate her mind-reading ability again. All she could hear was Lin Cheng's mumbling in his heart, "Two, three, four, five..."

Xu Linglan's body became so limp that she gradually lost the strength to even sit up. She collapsed on the snow, her legs slightly apart, her snow-white toes tightly curled up. As Lin Cheng's fingers touched her waist, her waist suddenly arched up like a jade bridge, revealing her snow-white belly under her shirt. Lin Cheng's inner voice was still a ruthless counting machine, "Seventeen, eighteen..."

Although it seemed that he was doing something very serious and his thoughts were very serious, this action was extremely frivolous. His fingers lightly touched her slender and soft skin, and he was silently reminding her in his heart to be more obedient, as some energy nodes required her to open her limbs a little.

Xu Linglan obeyed obediently, but she always felt her body getting hot. The tingling sensation like an electric shock made her close her legs all of a sudden. She seemed to hear Lin Cheng's voice.

"Hey, I was caught by a crab."

The girl's skin was as hot as her cheeks. Lin Cheng silently said in his heart, "Just bear with it..."
