Chapter 103 The Twelve Apostles of Cheng Lin (Part 2)
The room was quiet for a while.
The twelve boys all looked at the mysterious man in front of them in astonishment, dressed as if he had stepped out of a fantasy novel, and began to be in a daze.
However, their daze only lasted for a moment before they were awakened by a flame that suddenly appeared in Cheng Lin's palm.
"Ah! You...you are a magician?"
a little boy exclaimed.
Another boy shook his head: "It must be a practitioner! I've heard of it! A practitioner!"
The good-looking boy came over and looked at Cheng Lin with admiration: "Are you a practitioner? Can you teach me how to practice?"
Cheng Lin silently held up the low-temperature fireball.
After more than a week of practice, he has been able to control the low-temperature fireball without firing it, just like the little lapel holding up the fireball lighting at the door of the windmill that day.
The reason for displaying superpowers is naturally to shock them.
The fireball, which is very ordinary to Trisi and the spiritual academy, is synonymous with power and mystery in front of these children who have never seen a practitioner.
The twelve boys were all excited, and their faces were full of admiration.
Cheng Lintuo held up the fireball and said in a deep voice in this strange atmosphere:
"It doesn't matter who I am,
The important thing is,
Twenty years later,
The world we live in will come to an end.
The world is in turmoil, civilization is destroyed in an instant,
I can't bear the human race to perish like this,
So I chose you,
I will give you supreme gifts,
So as to have enough power to save the world in the future catastrophe!
Now,
Tell me, are you willing to take on this arduous responsibility?"
The words just fell.
Twelve little boys said very seriously in childish voices: "I do!"
"Okay, then starting from today, you have a new code name."
Cheng Lin struggled to maintain this shameful conversation.
He thought this was too middle-of-the-road.
But in order to complete the task... endure it!
Cheng Lin suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed at the boy on the far left: "From today on, your code name is Apostle No. 1!"
He pointed to the second one: "You are the second apostle!"
Next, he counted them from left to right until the twelfth apostle.
After it was over, he continued: "Now, I will give you supreme talents to help you stand out from the crowd."
He pointed to the number one and said: "Sit down cross-legged!"
They still know how to cross their legs.
Apostle No. 1 immediately sat down obediently.
Seeing this, Cheng Lin gently stroked his head with his free hand.
At the same time, No. 1 was seen glowing with light.
The whole person was enveloped in a gentle ocean of light.
The other apostles were shocked.
Eyes widened.
At this moment, Cheng Lin also looked like a magic stick, taking the initiative to take on the identity of a missionary.
At the same time, information also appeared in his mind:
[The system is being installed... 1%... 10%... 34%... 89%... 100%... Installation successful]
Cheng Lin slowly retracted his hand.
At the same time, the holy light on No. 1 also dissipated.
This is also the "task skill" of the program. There are twelve copies in total, which will be given to the twelve apostles respectively.
Cheng Lin always felt that the style of this deduction was getting more and more strange.
As mentioned in the civilization deduction, what is the future direction of the vast civilization?
Such a lofty theme.
In the past, I was able to complete cool tasks like broadcasting to the universe.
Now it has developed to the point where he is being used as a magic stick to fool children.
Why is this style getting lower and lower...
Feeling helpless.
But still complete the tasks in sequence.
Twelve boys received the supreme talents given by Cheng Lin in turn.
It is the so-called immortal who touches my head and binds my hair to achieve immortality.
After the end.
Cheng Lin took back his hand and looked at the twelve high-spirited apostles.
He said in a deep voice: "You are too young after all.
It is difficult to know how to make proper use of these talents,
Therefore, I seal the talent within you,
On your eighteenth birthday,
Only then will these seals be lifted,
In ten years, with the talents I gave you,
Enough to make a career in the world,
To deal with the doomsday disaster,
I hope you will not forget your original intention and keep your mission in mind..."
Cheng Lin fudged a few more words before letting the excited Twelve Apostles leave.
After they left, Cheng Lin didn't stay any longer and asked Xiao Yuan to say goodbye to the dean on his behalf, and he left calmly.
…
Standing at the gate of the courtyard.
Xiao Yuan watched Cheng Lin's figure disappear quietly, her face was both a little lonely and a little curious.
A female teacher next to me came over and said narrowly: "Xiao Yuan, what are you looking at? Everyone is gone. What's the matter? Love at first sight? That boy seems to be younger than you..."
Xiao Yuan blushed, glared at the female teacher, and then said seriously:
"It's not that kind of thing, it's just... I always feel like this guy is so weird... He's mysterious, he dresses weirdly, and he donates money on behalf of a big company, but he's so careless and... Hey, why can't I remember clearly?
Where is his appearance?"
As Madoka was talking, she was suddenly startled.
I think hard, but still can't remember.
Obviously I had peeked at him so many times, so I should remember it very well. Why was there no memory at all?
The female teacher next to her heard this and after thinking about it for a moment, she also showed a look of astonishment:
"I...I seem to have forgotten his appearance...I only remember that he was wearing white clothes..."
"Really, it's so weird."
The two women looked at each other, and suddenly heard an angry young male voice coming from behind:
"You are not allowed to steal my toys! I am the man who wants to save the world!"
Madoka was speechless and had a headache.
"What...did this person say to the children..."
…
[Affinity Invocation: It can make other people feel good and respectful towards the character, and there is a probability that other people will follow the character]
[Invisible mask: It can make other living things and non-living things unable to remember the specific appearance of the character]
…
These are the two passive skills that come with the "ordinary missionary" character.
Although Cheng Lin is still unable to determine their effect, he believes in the program's ability.
In fact, this is indeed the case.
The affinity appeal made Madoka and others like him. Without the secret help of this ability, given his age and appearance, he might not even be able to successfully meet the dean and complete the task.
As for the second passive.
It is perfectly reflected.
…
"According to the description of the invisible mask's ability, they shouldn't be able to remember my specific appearance.
Including my apostles,
So, how can we guarantee that they will recognize me twenty years from now?"
After leaving the orphanage, Cheng Lin walked slowly along the street.
The oval-shaped tree shadows are like ink dots, extending into the distance as if there is no end.
[You can’t help but feel confused, but there is no need to worry about any of this. Your face cannot be remembered, nor can it be stored by any device, but your breath will be imprinted in the hearts of the apostles along with your talent]
"I see, is it the breath..."
Cheng Lin twitched his nose, smelled the strong smell of heather, and couldn't help but sneeze.
Although there were very few information hints in his mind, Cheng Lin could already deduce some information.
He gave talents to twelve children, and those talents will be opened when they are eighteen years old.
This intention is very obvious, it is to enable them to make achievements in the catastrophe of the end of the world twenty years later.
"The net that a fisherman casts out must always be taken back."
In other words, no matter what the next mission is, Cheng Lin will still meet them after all.
However, it may be twenty years later.
[Congratulations on completing the task (3)]
A task completion prompt appears.
Cheng Lin did not wait for the next follow-up mission.
"What's next?"
he asked.
Didn't get an answer.
So Cheng Lin was no longer in a hurry.
Instead, he drove leisurely along the road.
My thoughts temporarily wandered.
It is said that many welfare homes in China were actually converted from churches back then.
Cheng Lin wasn't sure if that was the one just now.
