Chapter 21 Conversation
Bai Mo walked into the door of the institute's office and saw that many people who were ready to take the test had gathered inside.
"The test will start at ten o'clock in the morning. Those who are present to participate in the test, please go to the check-in office on the first floor to register as soon as possible." A prompt came from the broadcast.
He arrived in a hurry and followed the instructions to sign in.
The top floor of the institute.
"I hope we can find some good seeds this time." An old figure said with some expectation.
"What qualifies as a 'good seedling' in your words? It must be able to fight, do research, and be good at literature and martial arts?" A straight figure next to him answered.
"As far as they can do research, these young people all have graduate degrees or above, but they are all newcomers with little research experience. In terms of combat effectiveness, this group of so-called ability users can't even defeat one of my soldiers. It doesn't make any sense. nothing."
"I know you old men are obsessed with the idea that spiritual energy can improve your body and prolong your life, but you can't just seek medical treatment in a hurry. Just find a bunch of young guys to study this."
"Jinqu, we need to take a long-term view. This group of young people have a good level of knowledge and are capable people, although their current qualities in all aspects are indeed not very good."
"But their most important task is to use their knowledge level and status as ability users to serve as pioneers in this field and open up a way to use the new thing of spiritual energy to improve human quality. Who can guarantee that in ten years they will It will not become the backbone of China.”
"I'm not talking so much just to bet. During the Autumn of the Spirit River, I also went into the river myself. Unfortunately, I wasn't very lucky and didn't get the so-called ability. I'm a rough man and can't speak so many words. Let’s just go and see how the next batch of young people are doing.”
The two began to walk slowly downstairs, and they could vaguely see figures similar to guards walking around them.
"Everyone, follow me." At 9:50, the office staff began to gather the people who had completed the sign-in procedures and took them to the waiting room to sit.
"Please wait patiently outside for your number to be called. Test takers who are called will quickly enter the interview room after hearing their number. Thank you for your cooperation." said the staff member who led the crowd.
Bai Mo looked at the number plate he was given when he registered just now. It said 27. Then he scanned the surroundings with his spiritual mind and found that there were only 27 people in this round including himself. He happened to be the last one. Yue touched him. It should take quite a while.
Among those who went in earlier, a few people came out with depressed expressions within two or three minutes, and some walked out with expressionless faces. After watching a few, Bai Mo had no intention to continue reading.
He always paid little attention to things that had nothing to do with him, so he sat in a corner and continued to compress the spiritual energy around him.
Rarely, the atmosphere in the waiting room was quite depressing, no one said anything, and even acquaintances only made occasional eye contact.
Because they were recommended to come to this test, all of them were warned about the importance of this test. A small number of people who received the inside information even knew the level of the interviewers inside, so even some who couldn't wait Patience also tried his best to restrain himself and remain silent.
Bai Mo, who was sitting in the corner of the waiting room, obviously didn't have this awareness. He hid in the corner and accelerated his absorption of spiritual energy. He didn't pay much attention to the outside and was busy minding his own business.
When Bai Mo walked to the waiting room, he directed his mind towards the interview room.
There were two interviewers inside, and a large group of armed guards stood around them. From this, he inferred that the people inside were very special. Of course, it also meant that the venue was very safe and there was nothing to pay attention to.
People in the waiting room entered the interview room one after another and left with different moods. After about two hours, it was finally Bai Mo's turn.
"On the 27th, please come to the interview room, Bai Mo." The voice came from the staff at the door of the interview room.
"Here." After hearing his name, he came back from his fugue, answered and walked to the interview room. At this time, he was the only one left in the entire waiting room.
After entering the interview room, just as I sensed in my mind, there were two people sitting inside, one of whom was estimated to be in his 50s. Sitting on a stool, he was very straight and upright. Even if he was not wearing a military uniform, it could be easily seen. He comes from a military background.
The other person is an old man who looks to be in his early 70s. He has white hair, but his eyes are still bright. At first glance, he looks like someone who has been in a high position for a long time and is strategizing. There were some heavily armed guards around, staring at everyone who came in.
"Good afternoon." Bai Mo greeted politely.
"Your name is Bai Mo. Was it recommended by Professor Zhao Jiasen?"
"Yes."
"The reason for the recommendation written above is that you have a special feeling for Reiki and are more likely to develop Reiki-related applications? Is this your newly acquired ability?"
"I just have some ideas about the use of spiritual energy. It's not a special feeling. As for the ability, the ability I obtained from the spiritual river is that I can observe the special energy in other people's bodies to a certain extent - a kind of energy that I call The flow of special energy of psychic energy.”
"Well, then tell me what you think about Reiki." The white-haired old man asked.
"In my opinion, aura is a kind of special energy. When living things absorb this energy, it can not only improve their physical quality and strengthen their physique, but it can also induce the evolution of living things to a certain extent."
"Those of us so-called 'ability users', in the final analysis, it is that certain organs of the body have evolved during the previous Spirit River Impact, and some functions have been greatly strengthened or new functions have emerged, so what is revealed on the outside is that they have acquired similar abilities. Something with super powers," Bai Mo said solemnly.
"That's good, continue." The middle-aged man next to him became interested in what the young man in front of him said.
"According to my previous research, the absorbed spiritual energy can greatly improve physical fitness and also have a certain life-extending effect."
Hearing the word "extend life", the two people on the opposite side focused more on Bai Mo, but Bai Mo continued talking without realizing it.
"Reiki does have such an effect, but the amount we actually absorb in daily life is too small, so it feels like there is no change. After being absorbed by the human body, Reiki will convert into a special energy mentioned before - spiritual energy. "
"My ability happens to be able to see the flow of spiritual energy, and I can also observe the generation of spiritual energy. According to my estimation, the amount of spiritual energy that ordinary people can actually absorb is only about three thousandths of the total amount of spiritual energy inhaled. , and the rest flows back into the atmosphere."
"As for the previous Spiritual River, I think it is actually a rare opportunity to gather high-concentration spiritual energy. Staying in it may not only awaken your abilities, but also improve your physique to a certain extent."
"But because of the strong impact of Linghe River, there is a certain degree of danger. Many people with poor health, such as most elderly people, did not choose to go in. It has to be said that this is a big loss." Bai Mo began to prescribe the right medicine to attract the attention of the opponent.
Sure enough, after talking about this, the white-haired old man opposite had a hint of regret in his expression, but he quickly hid it again. The middle-aged man next to him looked at the old man and smiled meaningfully.
