Chapter 5: Transformation
In the blink of an eye, Su Xiang appeared in the dormitory. The surrounding tables and chairs were all so familiar, yet Su Xiang felt somewhat uncomfortable returning to the dormitory. Just moments ago, he had been in the growth assistance device, breathing the freshest and purest air, which made him feel light all over. However, the air in the dormitory contained some impurities and had a slight odor.
As Su Xiang got up from the ground once again, his eyes remained steadfastly fixed ahead, which moved Xiao Die beside him somewhat.
Su Xiang did not know how many times he had fallen to the ground, but he immediately gritted his teeth and stubbornly got back up, stumbling forward like a baby learning to walk, resolutely refusing to let Xiao Die assist him
Intelligence Quotient: 95 (extremely low), Emotional Quotient: 17 (extremely low), Financial Quotient: 27 (extremely low), Brain Development Index: 2.95% (extremely low), Physical Strength Index: 42 (extremely low), Endurance Index: 13 (extremely low), Reaction Index: 35 (extremely low), Maximum Speed: 6.9 meters per second (extremely low)
He is Zhang Jie, the roommate of Su Xiang, and is quite handsome, resembling the South Korean star known as Rain. His father is one of the top real estate developers in City S, and he comes from a wealthy family, making him very popular among girls. It is unknown how many girls have shown affection towards him. He also considers himself a playboy, often boasting to the other two in the dormitory about how he has taken the virginity of several girls.
Xiao Die was quite surprised to see Su Xiang's expression. She smiled slightly and said, "Brother, my image is a virtual projection created by the electromagnetic waves emitted from the growth assistance device, and only you can see me. No one else can, so you need not worry."
With a splash, the sound of flushing echoed in the dormitory bathroom as a man wearing a number 23 Jordan jersey emerged from the restroom, his forehead glistening with sweat
Xiao Die looked at Su Xiang's persistent demeanor with some confusion and gently pressed the testing device towards him.
Oh, by the way, brother, if you have any instructions, you only need to think them in your heart; there is no need to speak them out loud
Su Xiang was shocked, his mouth agape, and the pupils in his eyes suddenly condensed into a small dot: Transformation? It can actually transform! Is it a Transformer!
This is the Super Golden Enhanced Version of the Dragon Growth Assistant from the future, how incredible it is
Xiao Die carefully examined line by line and soon discovered a sudden surge in Su Xiang's value—willpower—and this value actually exceeded the detection range of the testing instrument
It is quite normal for Zhang Jie to not glance at Su Xiang, as he usually behaves that way; however, Xiao Die is a stunning beauty, and typically, when Zhang Jie sees beautiful women, he becomes like a hungry wolf, his eyes sparkling with interest. Yet, he actually ignored Xiao Die. Has he perhaps changed his nature?
Su Xiang felt somewhat puzzled, and his gaze inadvertently glanced at the mobile phone on the desk, June 15, 2007, 8:13 AM
What? Didn't Xiaodie say that I had already been in the growth assistance device for twenty-four hours? How could it have only been two hours?
Su Xiang nodded, once again marveling in his heart: the future of technology has truly reached an astonishing level
Su Xiang has always wanted to change, but lacks the ability and the opportunity to do so
The desire to rise is akin to a seedling buried deep beneath a massive stone, seemingly without any hope of emerging.
Why? Su Xiang asked in confusion
Individuals who undergo gene repair using the "maternal womb" typically exhibit such discordant reactions, though not as severely as Su Xiang. In the world two thousand years later, people's genes are significantly more refined than those of modern humans, resulting in minimal discordance between consciousness and body due to the use of the maternal womb for gene enhancement.
Su Xiang tentatively called out to Xiao Die, who quietly appeared in the dormitory, smiling as she explained: "Brother, the flow of time in the Growth Assistance Device at https://m.hetushu.com is different from that in the normal world; it is at a ratio of twelve to one. Twelve hours inside the Growth Assistance Device is equivalent to one hour in the normal world"
As long as the number of times I get up is one more than the number of times I fall, then I am successful! Su Xiang silently encouraged himself.
Su Xiang nodded and said, "Then I will go out to practice... How do I get out?"
However, he received a growth assistance device from the future! It was like a person who had been thirsty in the desert for a long time suddenly seeing an oasis, and the desire to survive surged intensely!
In contrast, Su Xiang is different; compared to the people of the future world, his genetic structure contains more redundant chains and defects. The dissonance between his body and consciousness, resulting from repairs made in the womb, is particularly severe, which has led to his current inability to find his way.
So amazing
The Tenglong Growth Assistant Device Golden Enhanced Version is transformable. You only need to input the detailed data of a certain item, and the Tenglong Growth Assistant Device Golden Enhanced Version can take on the appearance of that item and possess the same functions. Currently, the Tenglong Growth Assistant Device Golden Enhanced Version offers two forms for you to choose from: the original form and the watch form. Brother, you just need to place your hand on the adhesive piece, close your eyes, and you can freely switch between these two forms. After Xiaodie finished her introduction, she bowed to Su Xiang and disappeared in a flash.
Su Xiang nodded slightly, and in an instant, a beam of white light descended from the sky, perfectly enveloping Su Xiang. The white light was very gentle, making Su Xiang feel as if he were bathed in a spring breeze
Brother, please stand still, it will be ready soon. Xiao Die smiled gently
"Brother, it's time; you have to go out," Xiao Die suddenly stepped forward and said to Su Xiang
Su Xiang suddenly realized
What is going on? How did the willpower suddenly increase so much? Xiaodie was even more puzzled
Meanwhile, the white light on the crystal inlay also dimmed, reverting to its original ink color, becoming inconspicuous, akin to a cheap ornament from a street vendor
What special functions are there? Although Su Xiang has witnessed many incredible things today, he is still somewhat curious
Zhang Jie saw Su Xiang in the dormitory, merely casting a disdainful glance at him before whistling and walking out, not looking at Su Xiang again.
Was I not just dreaming?
How is this possible! Su Xiang was astonished
Xiao Die was unaware that mediocrity, much like a disease, had plagued Su Xiang for a full eighteen years. On the grand stage of life, he always felt like a supporting character to others
When Su Xiang saw Zhang Jie, his heart suddenly leaped to his throat—Xiao Die was still in the dormitory!
With Su Xiang's relentless efforts, he has finally managed to walk in a somewhat proper manner; however, running remains a challenge. His body is still not very coordinated, making it easy for him to fall, much like someone walking in shoes that are two sizes too large, which feels quite uncomfortable
Brother, of course, I will take my leave now... Also, brother, the Golden Enhanced Version of the Tenglong Growth Assistance Device has a very special feature
I no longer wish to be so ordinary, so commonplace! As a man in this world, I should strive to achieve great accomplishments and strengthen the nation when I venture out, and when I return, I should be wrapped in a horse's hide to bring glory to my family name
Su Xiang could hardly believe he said to himself: "I want to go out and exercise, is that okay?"
"Brother, during the first attempt at human shrinking, it is best not to remain in a shrunk state for more than twenty-four hours, otherwise it may induce bone cancer," Xiao Die explained.
Thud
Su Xiang's body has been cultivated in the "womb," resulting in enhancements in physical quality, nerves, and various other aspects. However, his consciousness remains at the original level, leading to a lack of coordination between his awareness and the different parts of his body. Therefore, Su Xiang is akin to a newborn infant, unable even to walk at the most basic level. In order to stand up again, he must undergo the process of learning to walk anew.
Who would have thought that this unremarkable diamond-shaped metal block is actually a growth assistance device from the future, and the only golden enhanced version in the entire universe, worth hundreds of administrative stars
