Chapter 35 Supernatural Crystal
?
Andrew made a decision this morning: he's going to take a video camera and film everything from now on!
The alcoholic father outside the bedroom was banging on the door: "Open the door, Andrew. I let you open the door." His voice was full of drunkenness, and Andrew knew that he must want to come in and beat himself up.
He tried to keep his voice steady, but the grievance in his heart still made him tremble a little: "Dad, it's 7:30 in the morning, and you're drunk...I'm filming, and I want to take everything..."
After waiting for a while, the sound outside the door has disappeared, and my father must have returned to the TV, where he will sit all day. Andrew picked up the video camera, came to his seriously ill mother, and said a few words to her. He seemed to leave his mother's room with ease, but the depression and worry in his heart almost made him want to yell.
He sees no hope, a gloomy future, and a powerless self. Perhaps only destruction is the real relief. Thoughts were rolling in his mind, but he could only walk out of the house in silence, taking Matt's car to school as usual.
Observing the outside world through the lens of the camera gave Andrew a new feeling: as if he was hiding in a safe place, everything he experienced was just a video, he slowly relaxed, and the pain in his heart was greatly relieved.
It felt so magical that he was instantly hooked on the act of standing behind the camera. He watched his cousin Matt sing and talk, and he couldn't help but think: "He is so good, he looks like a hang no matter what he does, but I can't do anything, I'm a piece of trash..."
"This is my school, it should be."
Through the camera, Andrew saw that the walls were covered with Steve's campaign posters, and a black girl ran over and handed him a flyer that said "Vote for Steve".
"This guy, called Steve, is going to run for the president of the third-year student council. He is a cheerful and interesting black man. Ah, I met him a few times at Supa's house. This guy is very good and he will definitely be elected." Andrew faced The camera narrates in a low voice.
After spending noon in the stands, Andrew returned to the corridor in the afternoon to continue his filming: "This is the corridor, here is my locker." The boy who made the hair snatched the camera and shouted: "What is this?"
Andrew looked at the other party and frowned suddenly. This group of people is the protagonist of campus bullying, and they often bully their classmates in the corridor. He reached out to hold the camera and said quickly, "Hey, buddy, don't do this."
"There's no one today..." Fatty's words got stuck in his throat before he finished speaking, and the camera faithfully recorded the nervous and embarrassed expression on his face.
A tall and burly figure entered the picture,
He was wearing a tracksuit, with a schoolbag on his shoulders, and frameless eyes on the bridge of his nose, like an obedient student. Yet the contours of his muscles under his clothes, his piercing eyes, and his face carved out of marble all told others that he was not to be trifled with. At that moment, Andrew felt an invisible pressure in the air.
He just looked sideways at each other, and the bad boys immediately turned around and ran away. There were a few laughs in the corridor, and many passers-by greeted the protagonist in the camera: "Hi, Supa!"
"Well, this is one of the few friends I have at school, Supa Yero."
"Hi, Andrew, nice camera." Supa waved to Andrew and stroked the front of the camera. "This thing is very old. Are you going to make a documentary? It looks very interesting."
"Oh, yes." Andrew nodded, shaking with the perspective of the camera, "Weekend as usual? Oh, okay, Supa, I thank you for everything you have done for me, that new medicine is very good, my mother I feel a lot more comfortable recently, really, I don't know how to thank you, I owe you too much..."
The boy in the camera spread his hands and smiled He Xu: "We are friends, aren't we? Brother, don't worry about it, and, you can pay me back when you have money in the future..."
The screen cuts to Andrew, who is already sitting in the car after school. Cousin Matt is urging him to go to the party: "How long have you not been to the party, you are already a senior in high school."
"I've been to parties, I've been to Supa's house. I don't go to these kinds of parties."
A slight anger flashed in Matt's eyes: "Oh, that nerd, hasn't he won the Nobel Prize yet?"
"Hey, Matt," Andrew raised his voice a little, "don't say that about him."
In the evening, Andrew came to Haven Hill just like the plot, and Matt asked him to play by himself. Andrew was doing nothing with the camera, and suddenly found a familiar figure in the camera. It made him feel lighter.
"Hi, Supa, why are you here?" In the camera, Supa was embracing his girlfriend. He saw Andrew let go of his hand quickly and waved hello.
"On a whim, Andrew, let's go and have a drink over there." Huang Chao squeezed through the crowd, like Moses parting the Red Sea.
"You know, I don't drink."
"Of course," Huang Chao gestured to the cup in his hand, which contained a colorless, transparent, tasteless liquid. "You can drink water. I have drunk hundreds of brands of alcoholic beverages, and finally found that pure water is the most suitable for me."
Kelly greeted Andrew politely, and quickly stood aside, the camera made her feel a little stressed. Huang Chao said to Andrew: "Brother, you must listen to my advice. Don't take pictures of strange girls at close range, it may cause trouble."
"Ok."
They walked to one side, and met a girl holding a DV on the road. She was shocked when she saw Andrew's huge video camera, and came over to him and said, "Excuse me, hello, what are you shooting?" Then she saw Huang Chao and Kelly immediately shifted the camera:
"Oh, isn't this the legendary Supa Yero?" A groupie look flashed across her face, and she aimed the DV at Huang Chao's face, ignoring Kelly's displeased expression, "I'm in a swimming competition I filmed you at the basketball game and heard your report, which is shocking. Why are you so obsessed?"
Huang Chao shrugged, looked carefully at the girl in the movie, and he made a gesture of surrender: "Forget it. Let's go get a drink." Kelly took Huang Chao's arm and said to Casey cryptically Claim sovereignty.
Huang Chao led the crowd all the way to the bar and brought everyone a glass of mineral water with ice. Along the way, Andrew and Casey began to chat about their feelings about shooting, and learned each other's name by the way. Huang Chao smiled on the side: This development is much better than in the movie.
"Oh, cool." Casey took the cup handed over by Huang Chao, thinking that drinking ice water is also very personal.
Huang Chao introduced several acquaintances to Andrew, and several handsome men and beautiful women appeared in Andrew's camera: "Hi, this is Andrew, Andrew, this is Peter, this is Harry, this is Stark, this is Alice..."
"Excuse me." Huang Chao took Kelly away from the crowd, and everyone smiled meaningfully behind their backs. When approaching the door, Huang Chao said to Kelly: "I have something to go out, if I haven't come back by the end, you can go back first."
"You have something to hide from me. What happened? You never go to this kind of party. You come here for a purpose this time, right? Can't you tell me?"
The cave was discovered by a group of Steve and Matt. Huang Chao had just met the two of them, and now they are still drinking and dancing, and did not expect to explore the woods.
Huang Chao lightly kissed Kelly on the forehead: "It's an academic question, I'm going to take a sample, forgive me Kelly." After hearing this, Kelly immediately lost interest. This is a desolate suburb, and the woods outside are so dark that She backs down.
"Okay, come back early."
The path from two years ago was still in Huang Chao's mind. He trotted into the dark woods, took out a small bright flashlight from his pocket, and illuminated the road ahead. After two years of absence, the woods were as sparse as before, so Huang Chao came to the edge of the clearing smoothly.
The light of the flashlight swept across the open space, and Huang Chao purposefully searched in the middle. He immediately saw a black cave on the ground. Huang Chao's heart relaxed, the expectation of the past two years finally came, and he felt his whole body become limp and weak.
Of course, this is just his feeling. After two years of uninterrupted training, Huang Chao has reached strength 25, agility 25, intelligence 50, constitution 25, and Ethelia meditation has also reached level 5. It is already very difficult to grow upwards, and it may be that the conventional exercise method is close to the limit.
He slid down the high slope quickly, and heard a harsh noise near the entrance of the cave. Huang Chao felt that the sea of consciousness moved, and his whole body seemed to be a little different.
"A magical crystal. My physical fitness exceeds that of the protagonist in the movie, especially my intellectual and spiritual strength. I am more sensitive to this kind of stimulation."
He listened to the sounds around him, but no one was around here. Huang Chao clenched the flashlight between his teeth, supported the edge of the cave with both hands, and slid neatly into the ground.
The underground cave is damp and cold, and there is a lot of water on the ground. Huang Chao had worn well-sealed hiking shoes before coming tonight. He held a flashlight and carefully groped into the cave. He saw a faint blue light from the hole in front of him. He walked over excitedly, and when he turned around, he saw the blue crystals that appeared in the movie.
The sharp voice made Huang Chao's brain a little uncomfortable. He felt that something was beating in his brain, waiting to spew out. That is the power of thought that is about to be awakened.
The crystal in the movie is like an active substance, the lines inside will move after being touched, and then the whole crystal can release the impact and open up the power of thought. In the movie, Andrew has the strongest ability, probably because he is the farthest from the crystal and lasts longer at the right density. And Steve got too close and had a nosebleed almost at the beginning, which indicated a brain injury; Matt was knocked to the ground by a shock, and their development at that time may have been terminated.
Huang Chao approached the crystal, and quickly touched a sharp corner of the crystal. He saw the lines inside begin to shake, and immediately retreated to the hole.
The voice in his ear suddenly increased, and Huang Chao's brain produced waves of dull pain, as if a sledgehammer was constantly hitting the top of his head. His eyes were a little dizzy, and the whole crystal seemed to be shaking.
Then he sat cross-legged and entered Ethelian meditation. The mind is clear, and the pain in the brain is immediately relieved when entering meditation. Huge waves set off in Huang Chao's sea of consciousness. The large amount of spiritual power he had accumulated in meditation was transformed into sapphire blue energy strips at this moment, surrounding the entire sea of consciousness, penetrating through the protective cover of time-space foil. out, forming a blue and white whole.
The energy strips have gradually increased, and they have perfectly wrapped the sea of consciousness. They accumulate more and more, and slowly transform into another form. The pain in Huang Chao's brain had disappeared, and he immediately thought: "It's not enough now, I have to move forward."
He got up immediately, and then sat down again in the middle of the cave. The powerful energy hit his brain. Huang Chao felt that his mind was running at full speed, and his whole brain was heating up.
The sea of consciousness was shocked, and a large number of energy strips disappeared, forming a blue gemstone with an icosahedron, suspended in the sky above the sea of consciousness. The heat in Huang Chao's brain began to dissipate, and his mental power was smoothly transformed into blue strips of thought power, which gathered in the sapphire.
The vibration under his body gradually increased. Huang Chao opened his eyes, and the gem in front of him had turned red. The red light shone on the cave, showing an unstable state. According to the plot, the cave is about to collapse.
Huang Chao jumped up and swept towards the entrance of the cave. His movements were as nimble as an ape, and he crawled out of the cave in two or three strokes.
