I Have A Game Clone

Chapter 15

Call from Hao Meng

Qianjin Village was the largest urban village in Donglin City.

The houses here were all self-built houses in the village, and the rent was relatively cheap, attracting a large number of migrant workers to live here.

On the left side of the village was the bustling Wangda Square, and on the right side was the newly developed upscale residential district.

The people living in the village could only live tenaciously with a meagre salary and the prosperity of the city seemed to have nothing to do with them.

There was a large floating population in the village, so it was inevitable that there would be a mix of people. The security was relatively poor.

At this moment, a series of banging sounds came from a self-built house at the end of the village.

A man held his stomach and rolled on the ground in pain.

Beside him, the table fell to the ground, and the cups and other things on the table were shattered.

“What a waste! You failed to snatch something from an ordinary person! If it weren’t for the Investigation Department keeping a close eye on us, why would I hand such an important task to you?”

A man with a ruddy face but white hair was cursing loudly.

“I’ve been in hiding for a month. All the information that I’ve obtained at my life’s expense has been wasted by you!”

Thinking of this, the white-haired man became even angrier. He gave another kick to the man who was rolling on the ground. This kick was very powerful. The man who was rolling on the ground was sent flying and crashed into the wall.

When he landed on the ground, he spat out a mouthful of blood. It was obvious that his internal organs had been injured by the kick, but he did not dare to resist at all. He just let the white-haired man kick him.

The white-haired man kicked a few more times, and the woman who had not moved spoke.

“Enough, Steel Needle! It’s useless even if you kick him to death. This is Yunmeng Kingdom. A death case is another trouble.”

The woman was wearing a short shirt with an exposed navel and a pair of shorts that covered her buttocks, outlining her perfect S-shaped figure. However, Steel Needle did not dare to take another look at her.

He said hatefully, “I should listen to you, Green Snake. I shouldn’t be too anxious. Strength-type awakeners are really f*cking unreliable!”

“This can’t be blamed on you. The two of us are being closely watched by the Investigation Department. It’s already good that we could recruit an awakener in a hurry. We can’t be so picky.”

Green Snake put the necklace in front of her to the tip of her nose and sniffed it before saying, “Perhaps, you’ve wronged this trainee.”

“This necklace also has the scent of a woman’s perfume on it. It should have been snatched from the target. As for why the gemstone on the necklace isn’t a spiritual crystal, it’s either someone got there before us or our information was wrong.”

“Impossible, it was controlled by my hypnosis and people couldn’t have lied. The information was not wrong,” Steel Needle said with certainty, “This spiritual crystal was transported from the Kingdom of Mies to Yunmeng Kingdom. I have conducted hypnotic investigations for each process. The spiritual crystal was mixed in this batch of gemstones, and it was not opened during the transportation.”

Compared to Steel Needle’s confidence, Green Snake was more objective. She guessed, “Could it be that the initial information was wrong? There are no spiritual crystals in this batch of gemstones?”

“That’s impossible. There are still unique fluctuations of spiritual crystals left in the gemstones. Besides us, the Investigation Department and the White Cloud Temple are also looking for spiritual crystals. They must have received accurate news.”

Green Snake walked around while twisting her waist. Her eyebrows were tightly knitted and she was very confused.

“The Investigation Department is still keeping a close watch on us. It means that they haven’t gotten the spiritual crystal yet. Could it be that other forces have taken the spiritual crystal before us?”

The two of them were puzzled. The trainee who was lying on the ground stood up shakily and said, “Maybe the spiritual crystal is still in Gong Li’s house. Maybe the gemstone on the necklace was one of the other gemstones that she bought?”

The trainee was beaten severely and his body was covered in bruises. However, he didn’t complain about Steel Needle at all. Instead, he hated Ning Shi’s aunt, Gong Li.

In his opinion, it was all Gong Li’s fault for not giving him the crystal.

Only a pervert with a twisted mind would be so easily recruited by a cult organization like the Pantheon of Gods and willingly become a trainee of the Pantheon of Gods.

“Esteemed ambassadors, why don’t I search Gong Li’s house time, I’ll find the crystals.”

Hearing the words of the trainee, Steel Needle and Green Snake shook their heads together.

Steel Needle’s expression was cold as he warned, “Stay here for the next few days and don’t go anywhere. Do you think that the Investigation Department is just a bunch of freeloaders? If you get caught and implicate us, I’ll make your life a living hell!”

The trainee shivered and did not speak again.

Steel Needle sighed, “Since things have come to this, we can only wait for the messenger of God’s arrival.”

Green Snake nodded, “With the messenger of God’s ability, under a sudden attack, it’s enough to destroy everything. However, our contribution points will be greatly reduced. This trip has been in vain.”

Not mentioning the Pantheon of God’s scheme, in the Second Hospital, Ning Shi faced his family’s gaze and generously admitted his identity.

“That’s right, I’m an awakener. You don’t have to be surprised. Didn’t you hear what Captain Wang said just now? From tomorrow onwards, the country will announce the matter of the awakeners. When that time comes, the streets might be filled with people with superpowers.”

“F*ck! Cousin, you’re too cool! What ability do you have? Does it allow you to fly around in the sky like a superman?”

Faced with his cousin Wang Yuwei’s curiosity, Ning Shi shook his head.

“I’m just an ordinary strength-based awakener. It’s just that my strength has increased a little, but I can’t fly.”

Ning Shi did not want to face the interrogation of his family and relatives. He tried his best to shift the focus, “This Captain Zhu is the real deal.”

Hearing Ning Shi referring to him as Captain Zhu and receiving everyone’s respectful gaze, Zhu Daniu felt refreshed. He sat on the sofa and shook his legs. He was very pleased with himself. He did not even notice that Ning Shi was teasing his name.

This Zhu Daniu was a realistic person. He liked to show his divinity in front of others. Perhaps he had to hide his identity as an awakener when he was carrying out missions in the past, so he was very stifled.

He deliberately pulled a long face and pretended to be an expert. He came to his aunt and shouted.

“Gather!”

Suddenly, a ball of water appeared out of thin air and gathered above his aunt.

“Run!”

The water ball slowly fell and fused into his aunt’s left chest. A light blue light emitted from his aunt’s left chest.

“It’s so itchy!” His aunt couldn’t help but want to reach out and scratch her wound.

Ning Shi grabbed his aunt’s hand and said, “Aunt, Captain Zhu is helping you heal your wound. Bear with it.”

Seeing the use of his superpower with their own eyes, Ning Shi’s relatives were all dumbfounded and extremely shocked.

His cousin, Wang Yuwei, had just entered the first year of high school and was still a teenager. His reaction was especially exaggerated as he surrounded Zhu Daniu and shouted. All sorts of worshipping words could be heard.

After showing off in front of everyone, Zhu Daniu was already extremely happy. However, he still tried his best to pretend to be calm.

“It’s just the healing effect of the water-type special ability. There’s no need to make a fuss. ‘s wound has basically healed. Although she still needs to recuperate, she can already be discharged from the hospital.”

Ning Shi was also amazed by the special ability. A knife wound that went deep into the internal organs could be healed with just one superpower.

Zhu Daniu didn’t heal his aunt just to show off. He continued, “This is a hospital. The flow of people is complicated and it should be better for you to be discharged and go home immediately. That way, I’ll have more confidence in protecting you.”

Then, he pointed at Ning Shi and said, “This is your nephew, right? Let him come with you. After all, he’s an awakener with a special ability. One more person means one more power.”

His uncle, Wang Zhiguo, knew that the situation was dangerous. He didn’t want Ning Shi to get involved. He asked, “Captain Zhu, it’s the duty of the government to protect. Ning Shi has his work and life. How can he follow us all the time?”

Zhu Daniu did not expect Wang Zhiguo to care so much about his nephew. For a moment, he was stumped by the question.

Ning Shi, on the other hand, knew that the Investigation Department suspected that he might be related to the disappearance of the spiritual crystal.

After all, among his uncle and aunt’s relatives, Ning Shi was the only awakener. It was useless for ordinary people to get the spiritual crystal.

Ning Shi himself wanted to protect his uncle and aunt’s safety. Moreover, he also wanted to get an A-level spiritual crystal. After all, this was a necessary item for the game’s update and upgrade.

As for the danger, he was confident that his fighting strength was much stronger than Zhu Daniu’s.

Ning Shi said, “Uncle, I haven’t been to your house for a long time. I want to stay there for a while. I don’t know if it’s convenient.”

After saying that, he saw his parents and grandparents and said, “It’s best if my grandparents and my parents stay there. Let’s have some fun together.”

While his uncle was still hesitating, Ning Shi’s words were decisive.

“When we’re together, we’ll have each other’s back. If we split up, it’ll be even more dangerous. Who knows if the Pantheon of Gods will make a move on the people around you?”

“Right, right, right! Ning Shi, you’re right!” Zhu Daniu’s mind finally turned around. “The Pantheon of Gods will do whatever it takes. If you guys stay together, it’ll be easier for me to protect you.”

His uncle reluctantly agreed and went to go through the discharge procedures.

Ning Shi was about to talk to his mother when his phone rang.

It was Hao Meng!

Ning Shi quickly picked up the phone and Hao Meng kept apologizing on the other end.

“I’m sorry, Brother Shitou. After we parted last time, I was busy with a big matter, and my phone was always switched off. I didn’t get your call in time. I’m sorry.”

“Mengmeng, it’s nothing urgent. You don’t have to apologize. Are you done with your work?”

“Yes, everything is going smoothly. I’ll be freer after dealing with some trivial matters. Why did you call me?”

Ning Shi glanced at Zhu Daniu, who was sitting on the sofa. He walked out of the ward and out of the corridor, whispering.

“The last time I ate, I met people from the Investigation Department. I heard from them that there will be a big change, so I wanted to ask you about the specific situation. If it’s not convenient for you to tell me, then forget it.”

“No, this change will be announced tomorrow.”.

“The country had successfully developed a potion that could help children under the age of 18 to awaken their special abilities. This drug was named ‘awakening potion’. After taking the potion, about 20% of the children would awaken their special abilities.”

“Starting tomorrow, the government will announce the existence of awakeners. They will also use the school as a unit to organize children under the age of 18 to take the awakening potion.”

F*ck, this wasn’t a change, this was an epoch-making event!

If 20% of the youngsters had awakened their abilities, how many awakeners would there be in the Yunmeng Kingdom in the future?

It was simply unimaginable.

How would the government manage the number of awakeners in society? How would the interests of ordinary people and awakeners be balanced? These were all very big challenges.

It could only be said that the government was very courageous and determined.

“Why must it be a teenager under the age of 18?”

“The older one is, the less effective the awakening potion is, and the lower the probability of awakening a special ability after taking the awakening potion.”.

The National Plan was to provide a portion of the awakening potion to teenagers under the age of 18 for free.

“For the older ones, if they want to take the awakening potion, they can buy it in the market. A portion of the potion is priced at 500,000 yuan.”

“Awakeners need spiritual crystals for their cultivation. Later countries will open up the market for these crystals. The price of the most basic E-level spiritual crystal is 500,000 yuan.”
