Refreshing superpowers is a business managed by the Superpower Research Institute. Every new city above Class D has a superpower research institute, but this institution, like the Arbitration Tribunal, is not under the management of the city hall, but directly takes orders from the Northern Hemisphere Eastern Alliance Headquarters.
Wu Chan registered the No. 3 waste incineration station in the East District at D067 Xincheng Super Energy Research Institute, and then confirmed that the allocation allocated by the city hall totaled twenty points. The procedures are all normal, Gong Tiantian only needs to wait in line. In the eyes of Gong Jingsheng and his wife, refreshing their superpowers was not an important matter that required them to come forward together, so they didn't come at all.
The Superpower Research Institute should be the place with the strongest sense of technology in every new city. The smell of the same disinfectant as the hospital is everywhere. In the middle of the waiting hall, there are rare high-definition electronic screens hanging from the ceiling for everyone in the hall to see. arrive. Promotional videos of the most popular superpowers are scrolling on the screen, mainly the superhuman and elemental series, because these two series are the easiest to display wonderful visual effects. In addition, there are several ectoplasmic superpowers, all of which are shown summoning giant ectoplasm beasts and easily killing ape-level demons with their strong brute force. In Gong Tiantian's opinion, the ectoplasmic beasts, crocodile and rhinoceros, are not as good as the snow-colored giant ape that Bai Zhizhi turned into.
The purpose of these promotional videos is, first, to attract superpowers to frequently refresh their superpowers. The second is to provide more advanced jobs for advanced superpowers. For the past ten years, A002 New City, the capital city of the Eastern League in the Northern Hemisphere, has held an in-depth competition into the old city every year. As long as you can get a good ranking, you can get huge wealth that can make people laugh from their dreams. If in any game, a C-level or above new city that has not yet been completely recovered by humans is successfully recovered, then all participants will not only receive the highest heroic honor, but also enjoy glory and wealth for the rest of their lives.
Wu Chan and others waited from ten in the morning until three in the afternoon before it was Gong Tiantian's turn.
While Gong Tiantian was waiting, she felt nothing but wanting to sleep, but now she was a little nervous.
The nurse showed a friendly smile: "Don't be nervous, it's just like getting a vaccine."
Gong Tiantian said: "The key is that I have not been vaccinated."
The nurse said: "Then you can choose two people to go in with you."
Gong Tiantian subconsciously tugged on Gan Xiaoyi's sleeve.
Gan Xiaoyi said: "Boss, you can come with us."
There was no problem with Wu Chan, but leaving Shen Jin outside alone made it seem as if the incineration station treated her as an outsider.
Gong Tiantian pitifully asked the nurse: "Can there be only two people at most?"
The nurse looked at Wu Chan and Shen Jin and understood how unwilling the couple who had just been together were to separate. She smiled and said, "Then we will make an exception. You all can come in."
The machine that refreshes superpowers is called an "energy adjustment machine", and its overall shape is like a microscope that has been magnified more than a hundred times. A pair of mechanical claws and a vertical needle as thick as a human index finger hang above the stage.
Gong Tiantian was not afraid of swords, guns, or demons, but she was usually very afraid of injections. The thick needles sent chills down her spine, and she had the idea of retreating in her heart.
"How about another day."
Wu Chan said: "Just today."
The modifier sitting behind the console is a kind-faced middle-aged uncle, short and stocky, wearing a white coat, with black and gray curly hair, and the round and thick frames are like two pocket tires hanging on his face. .
He said: "Little girl, don't be afraid, it won't hurt."
Gong Tiantian said: "Who said I was scared? I, I just felt a little uncomfortable in my stomach all of a sudden."
Wu Chan said: "You just ate an egg this morning."
Gong Tiantian said: "It's just because I only ate one egg in the morning and didn't eat at noon that I feel uncomfortable. Boss, why don't I really change the day?"
Wu Chan said: "Don't look like a girl with ink marks."
Gong Tiantian said: "Boss, I am just a girl, okay!"
Wu Chan said: "At the same time, you are also the first heir to the Gong Family Martial Arts School."
He used this name in front of outsiders, so Gong Tiantian had no choice but to bite the bullet in order not to embarrass the martial arts school.
"Where should I sit?"
The nurse led her to the chair in front of the stage: "Family members, please stay back and don't move too far forward."
The modifier looked at Bai Zhizhi, who was being held in Gong Tiantian's arms, and said, "After you refresh your super power, the monkey you condensed with your spiritual essence will disappear."
Gong Tiantian said: "It was not made by my superpowers."
It seems that this monkey belongs to one of the three family members.
The editor didn't take it seriously. Since the monkey was not Gong Tiantian's superpower, he had to re-read Gong Tiantian's information. In addition to helping people refresh their superpowers, the modifier's job is also responsible for reviewing whether superpower users' proposals are worthy of refreshing their superpowers, so as to prevent some superpowers from being ignorant and re-refreshing their superpowers, causing an embarrassing situation. Some people with superpowers are already very powerful, and out of greed, they want to acquire even stronger superpowers. At this time, the modifier will advise the other party not to take this risk. Because once this kind of person is refreshed to a superpower that is not as good as before, he will regret it and take his anger out on the modifier. If a superpower who already has powerful superpowers wants to refresh his power, he must sign an additional liability exemption agreement in advance, and the modifier must also call in the field controller to prevent trouble.
After reading Gong Tiantian's information, he thought it was okay: "Put the monkey down and put your hand on the stage."
Gong Tiantian stretched out her hand, and the nurse reminded her to roll up her sleeves with her palms facing up.
The modifier said: "Give me five sin cells."
Wu Chan opened the bag and took out the sin cells and handed them to the nurse.
The nurse skillfully opened the mechanical test tube, connected the interface of the energy regulating machine, and then the sinful cells were sucked in.
After all five sin cells were sucked in, the energy-adjusting machine made a slight vibration sound, and it felt like it was completely crushing the sin cells.
About two minutes later, the indicator light on the console came on.
The modifier said: "With good luck, the five evil cells were successfully fused in one go. Now I will verbally confirm for the last time whether D067 Xincheng East District No. 3 Waste Incineration Station will spend the five-point allotment to refresh superpowers for member Gong Tiantian."
Wu Chan said: "Yes."
The modifier took off his glasses and leaned his eyes on the eyepiece of the console: "Don't be nervous, little girl, you'll be fine soon."
Click, click.
The pair of mechanical claws grasped Gong Tiantian's wrist and elbow tightly at the same time, and the thick needle dropped bit by bit towards the middle of Gong Tiantian's forearm.
About fifteen centimeters away from the hand, the needle stretched out a thinner needle, and then plunged into Gong Tiantian's forearm.
Gong Tiantian was nervous before the injection, but now that it was inserted, except for the initial pain, she felt nothing at all. Through the transparent needle, you can see that the needle sucked Gong Tiantian's blood. After a few seconds, the blood in the needle gradually turned blue, and then began to flow back into Gong Tiantian's body.
Gan Xiaoyi couldn't imagine what this felt like, but when he saw Gong Tiantian frowning slightly.
The whole process lasted for nearly a minute. The needle was pulled out and the mechanical claw released Gong Tiantian's arm.
Gong Tiantian said: "Is this the end?"
The modifier put his glasses back on: "It's over, doesn't it hurt?"
Gong Tiantian said: "It's true."
The modifier said: "Feel it, what kind of super power did you get?"
Gong Tiantian said: "Is it so fast?"
The modifier said: "Refreshing superpowers is different from awakening superpowers. Once refreshed, you will immediately feel your changes, just like a blind person regains his sight, or an ordinary person suddenly grows a pair of wings."
Gong Tiantian tried again and again and came to a conclusion.
"It's the same ability as before."
Wu Chan and others: "..."
The modifier pushed up his glasses and said, "Little girl, you are so lucky."
Judging from the tone, this is not a lucky thing.
