Chapter 29 Advancing to the Extraordinary

 "Son, are you awake? You are finally awake! Are you thirsty? Are you hungry? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere? Do you need help from your mother?" Mother Jiang was so excited that she was incoherent. Her eyes were red and she almost cried. The worries she had suffered in the past few days finally turned into relief at this moment.

Jiang Xun shook his head, opened his cracked lips, and asked hoarsely with some difficulty: "What happened?"

Before going to bed that night, he just felt that he seemed to be a little hot, but he didn't care.

I didn't expect that after waking up I would feel extremely weak, and looking at my mother's expression, it seemed that something happened while I was sleeping.

"Mimi said that you were advancing? Yes, advancing! You had a high fever and were unconscious for seven days! You scared your mother to death!" Mother Jiang wiped her tears and said in a choked voice.

"High fever? In coma for seven days?" Jiang Xun couldn't help but his pupils shrink when he heard this, and he struggled to sit up from the bed.

"Come, stop talking and drink some water. Your dad is making porridge for you in the kitchen. I'll go get you a bowl of porridge. You can eat some first." Jiang's mother hurriedly stopped him. "As for the rest, I don't really understand it either. I'll call Mimi to explain it to you."

Just as he finished speaking, Jiang Mi pushed the door open. Seeing his brother who had woken up, his face immediately lit up with joy. He quickly walked to the bed and looked at his condition carefully, and his heart was completely at peace.

"It looks like the transformation is going well." She nodded happily. "But I'm still very weak after just completing the advancement. My body is in urgent need of a large amount of energy. I'll be able to recover soon after having a good meal."

Jiang's mother had already left. Jiang Xun propped up his upper body and sat against the head of the bed, frowning and thinking back, but he could not figure out what was going on.

"Seven days ago, you went out of the air-raid shelter to deal with that nest of mutant cockroaches. This may have caused your body to be contaminated, and you started to advance prematurely." Jiang Mi explained patiently.

The original plan was to go look for the person who developed the advanced potion after the pollution outbreak and gain super powers through the advanced potion, but an accident happened unexpectedly. However, it was a safe bet.

"Advancement successful?" Jiang Xun asked uncertainly.

Jiang Mi's eyes sparkled, and he nodded vigorously, his eyes full of curiosity. "It succeeded, and it was very successful. Brother, you can try to sense your body and see what kind of superpowers you have gained."

She is really looking forward to what kind of abilities her brother can acquire.

Jiang Xun lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, licked his dry lips, and subconsciously stretched out his right hand.

The next moment, blue arcs began to flash in the middle of his broad palm. As more and more arcs appeared, they gradually condensed into a sphere, which continued to grow larger and larger.

"Stop, stop, stop!" Seeing that the electric ball as big as a bowl was about to expand, Jiang Mi immediately shouted in panic to stop.

Others may not know how powerful this skill is, but she has experienced it firsthand. If this electric ball slips out of her hand, then she will lose the room.

Jiang Xun stared at the electric ball flashing with blue light in the palm of his hand. His eyes, which were usually calm and peaceful, could not help but fluctuate. Under his deliberate control, the electric ball finally gradually calmed down and stopped growing.

"What's the principle behind this?" he couldn't help muttering.

When he first saw his sister's telekinesis, he just thought it was magical, but now that he was able to master the power of thunder and lightning, a strange emotion surged in his heart, as if his world view and world outlook had been completely overturned.

Jiang Mi chuckled, "Brother, you are awesome. You can actually unlock thunder and lightning. We don't have to worry about running out of electricity anymore."

In response to his sister's teasing, Jiang Xun pursed his lips and smiled helplessly. He raised his hand and waved it, and the lightning in his palm instantly dissipated.

But then, Jiang Mi felt a crackling sound of static electricity coming from the sweater he was wearing.

Wherever your hands touch, there will be electricity, it can be said that sparks and lightning are everywhere.

Moreover, this static electricity is an enhanced version, and your skin can feel the burning pain when you are shocked.

"Brother..." Jiang Mi raised his hands, wanting to cry but without the tears, not daring to move.

Seeing her pitiful appearance, Jiang Xun couldn't help laughing out loud.

Just at this moment, Jiang's mother brought the porridge and stood outside the door, holding the tray in one hand and touching the door handle with the other hand. As soon as she touched the door handle, she saw a bright electric spark coming from the palm of her hand, accompanied by pain in her fingertips.

"Ouch! Why is there such a strong static electricity?!" Jiang's mother suddenly retracted her hand, looked at her palm to make sure she was not injured, and could not help but mutter.

Subconsciously, she reached out to open the door again, but the pain in her fingertips had not subsided yet. She was a little afraid to reach out, so she nodded to Jiang's father who was beside her to see his son, "Open the door."

Father Jiang naturally saw the whole process of his wife being electrocuted. It was the first time in his life that he had seen such a large amount of static electricity and the bright sparks. He was a little scared, but when he saw his wife's fierce eyes, he gritted his teeth and reached out his hand tremblingly.

Before he touched the door handle, there was a loud bang of lightning, and Father Jiang was shocked. Mother Jiang, who heard the noise, also shuddered.

Whether he stuck his head out or hid it, he would be cut by the knife. Father Jiang made up his mind, grabbed the door handle and pressed it hard, then pushed it open.

When Jiang's mother saw the door open, she immediately pushed Jiang's father aside and walked in with the porridge, smiling.

Father Jiang was left alone behind him, covering the hand he had used to open the door, and blowing on his palm with a grimace.

As soon as Jiang's mother entered the room, she saw Jiang Mi's strange appearance and couldn't help asking, "What are you doing? Get up quickly, I'll feed your brother."

Jiang Mi moved her mouth, but didn't dare to refuse. She gritted her teeth and slowly stood up with a painful look on her face. However, even though she moved slowly, there was still friction between her clothes. Then, Jiang's mother saw what sparks flew.

"Did you touch the electric switch?" Jiang's mother took two steps back in fright.

Jiang Mi showed a smile that was uglier than crying, and said aggrievedly: "Brother successfully advanced and gained the superpower of thunder and lightning."

Mother Jiang looked at Father Jiang, who was still standing at the door, in astonishment. She then looked at Jiang Mi, who was full of static electricity. She slapped her thigh and suddenly realized, "So that's how it is. I was wondering why the static electricity was so strong when I was serving food."

"Hey, forget about that for now, eat something first. This is the millet porridge that your father specially cooked with old hen soup. It smells delicious. The temperature is just right now. Come and try it." Mother Jiang walked to the bed and sat down. She picked up the bowl of golden millet porridge, scooped a little with a spoon, blew it to her lips, and then handed it to Jiang Xun, "Ah, open your mouth."

Jiang Xun took a bite helplessly, then reached out to take the bowl, "Mom, I can do it myself."

Seeing that he insisted, Jiang's mother simply let him do what he wanted.

Jiang Mi took advantage of this opportunity to quickly return to her room and change her clothes, finally getting rid of the feeling of static electricity.
