Chapter 93 Watchmen?(1/2)

Chapter 93: The Watcher?

In the evening, it rained on the island.

Chen Xiao was settled in the headquarters to stay, and the room she lived in was like a train car. This place highlighted the advanced technology of the service club headquarters. Although the room was not big, almost everything was automatic.

It is obviously on the mountain, and you can directly see the direction of the sea with a window.

When the storm is about to come, the sky in the distance is dark clouds. Then, looking into the distance, you can see a rain curtain falling between the sky and the earth. The rain curtain has not yet arrived on the island. From a distance, it looks like a jade bead curtain from a distance...

The windows here cannot be opened, but the ventilation system is very advanced. Chen Xiao quickly smelled the smell of humid air after the fresh rain.

He sighed, went into the bathroom and took a shower, sprinkled warm water on his body, and his originally a little irritable heart gradually calmed down.

As my thoughts came, my fingers suddenly bounced gently in the water curtain, and a series of water beads flew out immediately. Chen Xiao stared at the string of water beads, and his thoughts moved slightly. The string of water beads suddenly cracked in the air, turning into countless smaller particles, and then slowly floated with his thoughts...

This is the new superpower that Chen Xiao has gained since he was on Baidao Lake that time: mindfulness.

This ability comes from Monica. The perverted woman, after investigation by Lao Tian and others, was initially obtained, and she was a mental psychopath.

Mind power is a very special superpower. Chen Xiao's current ability can use mind power to move objects in the air, or even throw things out fiercely or fix them. After the test, his mind power was measured to be level c+, which is slightly worse than level b.

Chen Xiao stared at the dense row of water droplets in the air, suddenly clenched his fists, and a strange light flashed in his eyes!

"Swish swish swish swish swish swish swish swish!"

The row of water droplets suddenly shot towards the mirror in the bathroom, hitting the mirror like a row of bullets. With a bang, the mirror burst!

Even the smallest object can hit the force of high-speed impact under the control of mind power... the lethality is also amazing!

From this point of view, it would be very easy for Monica to really kill a few of her people in the resort - Monica's mind power is higher than that of herself!

Repression substances...purification agents...swallowing...copy...

Chen Xiao repeatedly recited these words in his mind.

Mom and Dad... Did you really do this at the beginning? Is it for me?

Chen Xiao casually put on a bath towel, walked out of the bathroom, and came back to the window barefoot - in addition, it was already raining heavily outside, and the world was filled with water vapor. Looking around, it seemed as if everything was misty.

He couldn't help but remember the scene he experienced before returning to his room in the evening:

Just after the wheelchair monster Shi Goufei told himself the results of the test, Chen Xiao was once taken into a closed circular conference room.

The room was very big, with only a chair in the middle. The surrounding walls were covered with a kind of metal wall with gloss.

Just after Chen Xiao sat on the middle chair, light flashed on the surrounding walls. Several pictures appeared.

It seemed like there were more than a dozen windows, and there was a person behind each window. Chen Xiao was sitting in the middle, just like those people watching through the window...

However, they could see Chen Xiao, but Chen Xiao couldn't see them.

The only thing Chen Xiao could see was the screens on the windows - those probably some kind of metal display screen.

Not all of the dozen windows had pictures. Chen Xiao counted silently at that time and found that there were only eight windows showing pictures on them.

The pictures displayed above are all human figures - these pictures are not portraits of someone, but pictures that are familiar to most people in the world:

Flower cards in playing cards

Black and red plum square: four k, four q, four j. Together, there are twelve windows.

However, not all the twelve flower cards exist, Chen Xiao saw it: there were two ks missing, one q and one j.

"We know all the information about you. So it's necessary to ask you a few questions."

The sound sent by the speakers in the room was obviously synthesized mixed sound processing. The men and women who could only barely distinguish the sound, but could not hear the original texture of the sound.

"This is the committee of the service club." A man said in a slow voice: "According to the service club regulations, more than two-thirds of the voters in the committee are valid. Now eight members are present here. That is to say, our decisions can be effective."

Chen Xiao was sitting in the chair at that time: "What do you want to say?"

"About you."

Chen Xiao noticed that this was a woman's voice, from behind a red peach q-floor window.

"Me?" Chen Xiao raised his eyebrows.

"Yes, you." The voice of the Red Peach Q was very calm: "Given that you have been confirmed as a psycho, as well as our observations about you for a while, and the full test that has just been completed. Our committee hopes to absorb you into the service club and become our full member."

Chen Xiao sighed in his heart: What should come, what should come will always come.

He had been reminded by Lao Tian before that with his current superpower level, not to mention that he has several superpowers alone, he is already a very prominent leader. Even if his current strength is not as high as this level, he is very popular with the service club based on his ability to "purify" and "devour"! In any case, with his special existence, the service club will definitely hope to absorb him into his own system.

Otherwise... Chen Xiaodi's existence is really hard to say whether it is a blessing or a disaster for the psychics in the world!

"What obligations must the full members bear? What power can they enjoy?" Chen Xiao did not answer immediately, but asked a rhetorical question.

All the flower cards around were silent for a while.

The last answer to Chen Xiao is a plum blossom j.

This is a man's voice: "As a full member, you will be able to receive the treatment of the service club as a member of the service club around the world, including recognition from the service club, protection from the service club, and at the same time you can receive fixed income, equipment, and many... privileges provided by the service club."

"Privacy?" Chen Xiao felt a little funny when he heard this word.

"Yes, privilege." Meihuaj's explanation is very plain: "We are psychics. Although we don't want to interfere too much in this world, the psychics' natural abilities allow us to easily obtain things that ordinary people cannot obtain or are difficult to obtain, status, wealth, power, etc. Although we are not addicted to these things, in order to maintain the operation of the organization, we do not deny it. In the secular world, the service society has a certain amount of energy - I believe you can understand that, I say this."

Of course Chen Xiao understood.

Not to mention anything else, just S Goofy's "holographic three-dimensional virtual" equipment can be sold to the American Nasa. It is conceivable...

And this "Home Island"...

"So, what about the obligation?" Chen Xiao shook his head: "I know, there is no free lunch in the world, what will I pay?"

"This cannot be generalized." Meihuaj's answer was very easy: "The official members of the service community are divided into two types. One is the field staff, who must undertake more work, including completing tasks around the world. I believe that Leihu, that is, the spades, he must have explained this to you before. At the same time, as a field staff, he must bear certain responsibilities for the area where he lives, such as when an abnormal situation occurs and you need to stand up..."

"It's like a city hero?" Chen Xiao couldn't help laughing: "I've read the comics. It's like Spider-Man guarding New York, Batman guarding Carson City...is that true?"

"Although this metaphor is not appropriate, it is like this in some ways." Meihuaj's answer was a smile: "We are a group of 'watchers'. Protecting and watching are the responsibility of us psychics to this world! It is also an obligation! We will not regard ourselves as a real privileged class, nor will we consider ourselves as God... But, as a group among human beings who are the first to embark on the path of evolution, we are born with unshirkable responsibilities!"

"It sounds noble." Chen Xiao didn't say anything, but just smiled: "Next, you won't say to me like 'the greater the ability and the greater the responsibility', right?"

The woman of the Red Q spoke in her voice: "We are not empty idealists. If we live in this world, we must be influenced by this world. These have nothing to do with nobility... I think you should be able to understand what we mean. In theory, you can join any superpower organization. However, we think that we are your best choice."

"Because of my worth?" Chen Xiao put forward this topic directly.

The other party also did not deny: "Yes, we do not deny that your body has strong research value, and even... we think that your body mutations may affect the future and the direction of our group's evolution." After a pause, Hong Taoq suddenly said: "And from your life experience, you no longer have the possibility of joining the club, right? In terms of the organizational structure, I personally believe that other small and medium-sized supernatural organizations do not have the ability to make effective use of you."

"You mean...use?"

"Yes, it's use." The words of Red Peach Q are unconcealed: "You are of high value, whether it's your ability to change or your ability to swallow and replicate. Mr. Scovie has great hope for retaining you, and we think his hope is correct. However, other organizations in the world do not have complete research methods to make the most of you."

"But, using this word seems too cold." Chen Xiao curled his lips.

"Just use it." Hong Tao Q's voice was very rigorous: "We don't want to lie to you, nor do we deceive you with lies. In other words, if I bring out the so-called ideals or noble words to encourage you, will you believe it?"

"...No. If that happens, I will think you are hypocritical." Chen Xiao sighed.

"So, are you willing to accept it?"

Chen Xiao was silent: "The last question, what if I refuse? Will I be imprisoned by you immediately, and then locked up in the laboratory, waiting to be dissected or sliced? Or will I become a prisonered experimental mouse in the future? Or do you think my ability to devour and replicate is a threat to other psychics and intend to eliminate me physically? Shi Gofei said... He thought I was like a virus!"

After a while of silence, eight voices came at the same time:

"No. We are watchmen, not manipulators, and not interveners."

Chen Xiao immediately stood up from the chair, patted his clothes, and deliberately made a sigh of relief: "Then I will feel relieved, and there is nothing to worry about... Gentlemen, ladies, my answer is the same as before: I refuse."

"Can you give a reason?"

When Chen Xiao walked out of the conference room, as soon as he opened the door, he saw Shi Gaofei sitting in a wheelchair, blocking the door, and looking at Chen Xiao with a gloomy face.

"reason?"

"Yes, reason!" Sgovite's eyes were a little annoyed: "Boy. If you are willing to stay, I can make full use of you for research. These research will get significant results! It is very likely that these results will affect our future! Evolution! Do you understand? Evolution!!"

"But you said, I'm a virus." Chen Xiao touched his nose.

"Damn it! That's just a metaphor!" Sgoofy said angrily: "Do you know your value? I can even develop a drug that is anti-repression. I am now studying an inducing drug because my research theory is: superpowers exist in every human body! The evolutionary process of human beings, DNA will continue to change! I hope to untie the shackles that have always existed in the human body! If you can use your data for reverse research, I may be able to invent a drug that will allow all human beings to evolve together!"

"In other words, any ordinary person who is injected with the potion you mentioned can immediately evolve into a superpower?" Chen Xiao seemed to smile: "Everyone in the world has become a superman?"

"It's not exactly like this!" Shi Gaofei was a little excited: "And your ability to copy superpowers! There are many types of superpowers that have been discovered in the existing areas! After years of research, we can only figure out some of the principles. But for more superpowers, we only know the effects of it, but we cannot figure out how it came about! That is what you Chinese say, "know what it is, but not why it is." But you can help me find a breakthrough in this direction!"

Chen Xiao stared at Shi Gaofei very seriously, his eyes were very serious. Chen Xiao saw the excitement in Shi Gaofei's eyes, the excitement, and the sincerity.

"I believe in you." He said lightly: "But you can't represent the service club alone. You can't represent the whole world alone."

Standing in the room, Chen Xiao looked at the heavy rain outside and recalled what happened in the evening.

Hum. Sublime? Noble? Watching the world?

It’s not that Chen Xiao is despicable, nor that he guesses others with a villain’s heart…

only……

Is there really such pure noble ideals in the world?

The United States attacked Iraq and shouted the slogan of liberating Saddam's dictatorship to the land, but in fact the purpose was to seize oil.

The Spanish colonists massacred the Mayans and shouted slogans to spread civilization, but their purpose was to plunder!

The Crusades, under the banner of spreading God's faith, were actually for...
