"In other words, you took the hero medicine two weeks ago?" Jiang Feng asked Deng Hui.
"That's not true." Deng Hui scratched his head and laughed dryly, "I didn't dare to take that kind of medicine without a manufacturer and unknown ingredients at first."
"I kept it in my hand for a week. Later, more and more people posted on the forum, saying that after taking the hero drug, they really gained superpowers and evolved into mutants. They also recorded videos showing all kinds of strange superpowers. I
I can’t hold myself any longer..."
"So you took the medicine?"
"Well, initially I didn't expect to be able to awaken my superpower. After all, the seller also said that on average one person in 1,000 people can awaken. If it doesn't work, he can get a full refund."
"Refund if it doesn't work...haha!" Jiang Feng laughed out loud, "This reminds me of many years ago, there was an Internet celebrity named Meng Mi who sold a book on success online. If the buyer doesn't buy the book within two years,
Promotion, salary increase, full refund... It's so funny, people actually buy it, and there are quite a few of them!"
"Actually, there is a more classical version of this scam." Gao Fei continued his girlfriend's words, "It's like the ancient charlatan who specializes in selling birth-protection pills. For one tael of silver each, he is guaranteed to have a boy. If he is born a girl,
Anyone with a little bit of common sense about probability can see that the money for the medicine will be refunded, and this is definitely a good deal that guarantees a profit without losing any money!"
"Brother Fei! Sister Feng! That drug dealer does look like a liar, but if you think he is following this old trick, you are underestimating him!" Deng Hui looked serious, "Think about it, if he is just a liar,
How could I, an ordinary fraudster, awaken my superpowers?"
Gao Fei and Jiang Feng looked at each other.
Yes, if there was just one person selling counterfeit medicines online, how could one in a thousand people taking the medicine, including Deng Hui, really awaken their superpowers?
At this time, a ringing sound came from the window.
Deng Hui turned to Liu Jinsong and asked: "You have classes in the afternoon, so go back first."
Liu Jinsong nodded, told Deng Hui to eat the food while it was hot, said goodbye to Gao Fei and others, and left.
Deng Hui opened the lunch box and said while eating:
"I don't know whether to say I'm lucky or unlucky. The afternoon I took the hero medicine, I felt like it was described in a martial arts novel, 'the two meridians of Ren and Du were opened', and I could clearly feel the rise and fall of the magic power in the surrounding space.
Even though the fluctuation is very slight, I can feel it!"
Gu Siyi couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.
As a mutant, she is certainly not unfamiliar with the mysterious feeling described by her cousin.
Not to mention Gao Fei and Jiang Feng.
"Xiao Hui, Blue Star is currently in a period of low magic power. Even if you can feel the magic power fluctuations, you cannot extract magic power from the surrounding environment. Without magic power as energy, how can you activate your superpowers?"
Even a mutant like her who has evolved to a mature stage still needs to absorb magic power during the outbreak of the magic tide, reserve it, and save it for use when the magic power ebbs, just like a human flesh battery.
Deng Hui awakened his superpowers by taking drugs, which is at most equivalent to a mutant in the developmental stage. Shudu is not a magic-rich area, so how can he use his superpowers immediately?
Gao Fei and Jiang Feng also had the same question.
Three pairs of eyes stared at Deng Hui on the hospital bed, expecting his answer.
Deng Hui chewed the sweet and sour pork in his mouth and said vaguely: "I don't quite understand...it seems that the hero medicine I took contains a lot of magic power, and it was injected directly into my body, as if it was installed on me.
Got a battery."
"So, what superpower did you awaken?" Jiang Feng asked the key point directly.
Guba
Deng Hui held the lunch box with a strange expression on his face.
After thinking for a while, he spoke.
"Senior sister, do you know what 'keyboard warrior' means?"
"Of course I know, this is not a nice thing to say!" Jiang Feng sneered.
"Indeed, ordinary keyboard warriors are just a group of Internet trolls with high ambitions and low intentions, but I am different. When I took the medicine and awakened my superpower, I became a real keyboard warrior!"
"Every word I say through the Internet must be held accountable to the end. On the contrary, anyone who makes a promise to me must keep their word!"
"Oh my god, what are you talking about?" Gu Siyi was confused by her cousin, "I have never heard of this kind of super power. It is much more complicated than my 'steel bones and soft muscles'!"
Gu Siyi scratched her head.
"Deng Hui, to be honest, not only your cousin, but I also don't understand how to use your super power. Can you give me an example?" Gao Fei asked with interest.
Deng Hui nodded and raised his rice spoon.
"The first example is that in the afternoon of the day when I took the medicine, my roommate Li Lei and I played a game online, and we agreed on the 'Father and Son Game'. Whoever wins will be the father, and the son will kowtow to his father three times."
"Brother Fei, you also know that in the boys' dormitory, everyone often makes jokes like this. Just forget it, no one takes it seriously."
"But that afternoon, when I lost to Li Lei, I suddenly had an idea - if I don't fulfill my promise, my life will be worse than death!"
"So you kowtow to your roommate and call him daddy?"
"Well..." Deng Hui nodded awkwardly, "But I won the next round. Li Lei also seemed to be possessed by an evil spirit. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed to me three times, and respectfully called me daddy."
"The roommates who were watching the excitement were all laughing wildly, thinking that we were acting, and even said that we were father and son... In fact, only Li Lei and I knew that this was really scary!"
"Later, when we told the story, Liu Jinsong and Qu Yang were dubious and asked me to find someone else to test whether it was really possible to use superpowers to force people to fulfill their bets."
"At that time, I had a sudden idea and wanted to give it a try and make a bet with someone in person to see if it would work. But I found out that it didn't work. I had to use identity information such as Internet ID, email address or phone number to transmit my superpowers."
"On the bright side, this means that my ability has no distance limit. Wherever there is an Internet connection and a phone line, I can force both parties to the conversation to do what they say!"
"Strange... Among the ten types of mutants listed in Tiangong, there is no such super power that must be spread through the Internet." Gu Siyi frowned.
"It sounds like a memetic virus built on an information network." Gao Fei said thoughtfully.
"Have you ever made a bet with a stranger online?" Jiang Feng asked Deng Hui.
"Yes! Of course I want to find someone to test it!" Deng Hui became excited, "At that time, I happened to meet a big troll on the Internet who always boasted about his accurate shooting skills, so we opened a map and played two out of three games.
The winner, the loser started a live broadcast to perform standing on his head and peeing, and I beat that kid 2:1."
"Based on the kid's past urinary behavior, he would definitely deny it after losing. That day, I was not used to his bad habits. I activated my super power and directly forced him to fulfill the bet and perform a live broadcast of standing on his head and peeing in public! Hey! It's a pity for you.
I didn’t watch it, but that scene was so funny..."
