Chapter 6
Utilizing Lightning Ability
Facing Qin Feng and Wu Qi Jun's inquiries, Shen Yi seemed to remember something.
He hurriedly opened his Attribute Panel.
[Name: Shen Yi]
[Talent Level: A-rank]
[Mental Strength: 19]
[Strength: 24]
[Ability Level: Second Stage]
[Ability Type: Fire]
[Hidden Ability: Destructive Lightning (Awakened)]
[Ability Skills: Reconnaissance (Proficient: 20/200), Flame Clone (Beginner: 10/100), Power of Destruction (Perfected (0/0))]
[Free Distribution Points: 2 points]
Indeed, just as he thought, his other Ability had Awakened.
Although he didn't remember the Awakening process, this didn't diminish his joy.
Qin Feng and Wu Qi Jun watched Shen Yi lost in thought, assuming he was recalling something.
"Did you remember anything?" Wu Qi Jun asked.
"I think I might... probably... perhaps... should have Awakened another Ability." Although Shen Yi didn't remember what happened inside, thinking of the black lightning that appeared in the sky during his Awakening, it must have been related to him.
As for those Otherworldly Race members, he guessed they were struck dead by the black lightning, but he wasn't too sure.
"Perhaps when I Awakened, the Otherworldly Race members accidentally came too close to me, and then were struck dead by lightning," Shen Yi said uncertainly.
"You Awakened an Ability? Didn't you already Awaken one before?" Qin Feng thought he misheard, his face full of disbelief.
One must know that ever since the revival of spiritual energy and the invasion of Otherworldly Races and Fierce Beasts until now, even in history, there has never been any record of someone being able to Awaken dual Abilities.
A person, from birth, only has one chance to Awaken an Ability in their lifetime. Regardless of talent, everyone will have an Ability, but only one.
"Before, I Awakened a Fire Ability. This time, I don't know what happened. That day in the Otherworldly Realm, lightning suddenly struck from the sky. Perhaps it's because I'm too handsome; I got struck by lightning and then Awakened," Shen Yi didn't know how to explain it. He couldn't say the System helped him Awaken. The important thing was that no one would believe it if he said it. Even if someone did believe it, what if they captured him for dissection and research? He had to make something up.
"Huh? Is that even possible? What Ability did you Awaken?" Wu Qi Jun felt this was preposterous.
"Lightning Ability." Shen Yi truly didn't hide this. It's just that he felt the name "Destructive Lightning" was too dramatic, and he was a bit embarrassed to say it out loud.
If being struck by lightning could Awaken a Lightning Ability, was this a completely new method of Awakening?
The two fell into contemplation, beginning to calculate in their minds whether they should find someone to experiment on.
"Alright, you get some good rest. The trial is over, and you still have twenty days off. Then classes will start." The two said nothing more, lost in their own thoughts, preparing to leave.
"Remember to help me sell the Ability Orbs, two big brothers," Shen Yi saw them about to leave and reminded them.
Qin Feng: "..."
Wu Qi Jun: "..."
After the two left, Shen Qiu Lin and Feng Shu Yue came in, bringing all sorts of delicious food for Shen Yi, asking about him with concern.
He stayed in the hospital for another day. After a full body check-up showed no problems, he was discharged.
Back home, he was still very much looking forward to his newly Awakened Ability.
Upon returning home, he began to search online for information related to the use of Lightning-type Abilities. What he admired most was one of Xie Peng Yu's followers, who could charge things casually, truly a mobile power bank.
He searched for a large amount of techniques for using Lightning Abilities online.
«How to convert Lightning-type from DC to AC»
«How to control Lightning Ability voltage»
«One hundred types of Lightning-type Ability voltage transformation techniques»
«Super practical fast charging method for phones using Lightning-type Ability»
«Small tips for saving money with Lightning Electricity»
«One thousand small tips for applying Lightning-type Ability in daily life»...
All sorts of books and application techniques were available, dazzling Shen Yi.
He casually opened one. Inside, it introduced a dense array of common knowledge about Lightning-type Abilities, along with ways to control voltage and current.
There was also some popular science knowledge to assist, such as charging phones, how much current and voltage a phone's circuit board could withstand. It even taught how to make a power bank.
After reading for a while, he felt a headache coming on.
Following the knowledge taught in the book, he slowly sensed the Lightning Ability within his body.
A black lightning bolt shot out from his fingertip.
He took out a broken power bank from his drawer, trying to see if he could charge it.
As soon as the black current on his finger touched the power bank, the power bank began to swell at an extremely rapid rate.
A flat power bank instantly turned spherical.
"Bang!" With a sound, it exploded.
If Shen Yi hadn't dodged quickly, he might have been left with a haggard face.
The room was filled with a burnt smell, along with a surge of energy that made one feel extremely irritable.
Looking at the shattered power bank that had exploded into dust on the ground, Shen Yi fell into contemplation.
He didn't know where he went wrong; why did it directly explode?
He didn't believe it and went to ask his parents for another power bank, wanting to continue experimenting.
This time, he made the black current on his finger smaller, only as thick as a strand of hair.
But the result was still the same. As soon as it touched the power bank, the power bank inflated like a balloon, instantly turning spherical, and with a "thump," it vanished in the room.
"Is the voltage too high, or is the energy too abundant?" He picked up his phone, opened a webpage, entered keywords, and began searching.
The search results were all equivalent to saying nothing.
"Is it really a talent issue?" Shen Yi also began to doubt himself. Why was Xie Peng Yu's follower so proficient?
Thinking of Xie Peng Yu, he slapped his head.
"That's right, asking Xie Peng Yu and consulting his follower wouldn't be better?"
He hurriedly picked up his phone, only to realize that he hadn't added them as friends at all.
Opening his phone, he saw the whole class discussing something.
[Feng Hao]: "Do you know how many people died in this Otherworldly Realm trial?"
[Chen Hua Dong]: "Good thing I was just a tourist. Hearing about encountering Otherworldly Race members inside, just thinking about it is scary."
[Liu Quan Sheng]: "I personally saw a friend of mine bitten in the head by a Fierce Beast, dying on the spot. (Trembling)"
[Zou Yun Liang]: "It's nothing, the Fierce Beasts inside are just a bit stronger. As long as we cooperate well, Fierce Beasts are not enough to be a threat."
Shen Yi saw Zou Yun Liang still pretending in the group, so he picked up his phone and said.
[Shen Yi]: "Class Monitor Zou, you're truly a good person. In the Otherworldly Realm, to let your classmates eat well, you willingly endured hunger yourself."
[Zou Yun Liang]: "..."
[Huang Ren]: "Shen Yi, are you okay? I was the one who brought you out of the Otherworldly Realm before. Aren't you going to thank me properly?"
When Huang Ren mentioned the Otherworldly Realm again, those in the class who had entered the Otherworldly Realm had the scene reappear in their minds, so frightened they almost dropped their phones.
