NOVEL WEB Chapter 11
Pleased
In the kitchen, Chu Lingjun removed the scales and internal organs of the snakehead, cut the head off, and boiled the bones into soup. The fish meat was cut into thin slices and wrapped in egg white. He planned to make pickled fish.
His mother, Fang Shuping, watched from the side, recovering from shock. She was surprised and relieved that Chu Lingjun was decent at cooking.
Then, she got up and started to make some phone calls.
Fang Shuping first called Chu Xingguo, but the call didn’t go through after several tries.
Her husband played a special role in the military, so it was impossible for him to check his phone all the time.
Fang Shuping didn’t mind. After sending a message to announce the good news, she called the others.
She called Chu Lingjun’s grandparents, his uncles and aunts, and almost all of his relatives.
The news of Chu Lingjun becoming an esper was quickly spread to everyone he knew.
Fang Shuping sat on the sofa with a smile on her face. She was so happy that it felt like the New Year for her.
In the kitchen, Chu Lingjun smiled. ‘I’m glad to see her happy.’
Half an hour later, the steaming hot fish was served on the dining table.
Fang Shuping, who had just finished talking on the phone, walked over and picked up a piece to try.
She took a bite and her eyes lit up!
The fish meat was smooth, fragrant, and full of elasticity.
After a bite, a warm current spread out from her stomach and flowed to her limbs. It was as if her body had been injected with energy.
“It’s delicious!” Fang Shuping looked at Chu Lingjun in surprise.
“If it’s delicious, then you should eat more.” Chu Lingjun smiled.
The mutated snakehead fish in front of him, which was filled with spiritual energy, was even more expensive than ordinary fish.
With the family’s financial situation, Fang Shuping never had the chance to eat quality fish.
“The meat contains essence. Chu Yue can also eat it. I put the rest of the fish meat in the fridge. You and Chu Yue can finish it tomorrow.”
Fang Shuping was delighted at first, but then she frowned and said, “You should have some too. You just awakened your superpower, so you need more nourishment.”
“No need. I can eat exotic beast meat every day in school.”
Chu Lingjun told Fang Shuping about his welfare benefits. While speaking, he also picked up his bag from the sofa and handed over the signed agreement along with the 1000 dollars that the school had returned to Fang Shuping.
He would have expensive exotic beast meat for every meal in the future and nearly 100,000 dollars of cultivation resources to use every month…
Her happiness stormed over like a tornado, blowing her into a daze.
Fang Shuping was stunned for a while before she silently picked up her phone.
Then, she called everyone she knew to share more news!
Back in his room, Chu Lingjun ordered the electric eel clone to discharge electricity and to eat.
With the increase in experience points, the electric eel’s body also grew stronger each day. In just one or two days, it had grown from 1 meter to 1.1 meters, and its body was slightly thicker.
While the electric eel hunted for food, Chu Lingjun spread out his body and clenched his hands into fists.
One mighty punch after another was thrown out. It was fierce and bold, and his sleeves also emitted a series of whooshing sounds due to the rapid fisting.
Although he possessed the power of lightning, Chu Lingjun did not intend to slow down on his martial arts cultivation.
He had to practice every aspect of his life to be successful!
Moreover, the power of lightning was helpful for martial arts cultivation.
The lightning could stimulate the muscles in his body and increase the activity of the cells. Chu Lingjun could also temper his body with lightning while cultivating. This could greatly speed up the progress of his martial arts cultivation.
With such a unique advantage, he had no intention of just sitting around waiting for something to happen. He had to get to work!
With his electric eel’s clone, he could do a dual cultivation, which was difficult for others but simple for him.
Chu Lingjun practiced until midnight.
As the large amount of food was digested, a powerful force was fed back to the clone.
[Name: Chu Lingjun]
[Vitality: 8]
[Spirit: 27]
[Talent: Soul Clone (Electric Eel)]
[Cultivation technique: Cannon Fist (16/100/beginner), Fifth National Military Boxing Style (1/100/Beginner), Twelve Floors Visualization Methods (4/100/Beginner)]
…
[Name: Electric Eel]
[Level: Ungraded]
[Experience: 40/100]
[Talent: Lightning Control]
[Skills: Electric Discharge (40/100), Electric Field (100/100)]
His vitality increased by one point!
His spiritual energy had increased by two points!
The experience value of the electric eel clone had also increased to 40 points, which meant that the electric eel might level up after hunting for another three days.
The proficiency of the Electric Discharge skill increased by 40 points.
The proficiency of the Electric Field skill was maxed out at 100 points.
However, the Electric Field skill could not be upgraded after it was maxed out. According to the interface, the clone needed to level up before the skill level could be upgraded.
This made Chu Lingjun disappointed. He had to wait until three days later to truly enter the grade.
To evolve an ordinary electric eel into a Level One beast in a few days was considered a big deal.
Chu Lingjun adjusted his state of mind and went to the bathroom to wash up before getting ready for bed.
The next day, his father, Chu Xingguo, finally called back.
His mother happily said her goodbye before handing the phone to Chu Lingjun.
Chu Lingjun took the phone and heard all kinds of gunshots and explosions coming from the other end.
“You did well this time. I’m very pleased.”
Amid the gunfire, Chu Xingguo’s voice was suppressed, but one could still hear the joy in his voice.
“Yes, I will work hard from now on. Is everything good on your end?” Chu Lingjun said worriedly.
“It’s not a big problem. It’s just a small beast tide attacking the city. We’ve managed to overcome it, there’s just a few left.” Chu Xingguo laughed and said boldly.
“Be careful.”
“I know.”
The two of them talked for a while before hanging up.
Chu Lingjun looked out of the window, as if he wanted to see the battlefield outside the city.
Chu Xingguo was right, the beast tide attacking the city was tiny.
If it was any bigger, the city would be able to hear the battle very clearly.
If they did not hear it, it meant that the intensity of the war was mediocre. Fortunately, the beast tide was stopped before it even approached the city.
Chu Lingjun shook his head. He had to become stronger as soon as possible to join the forces!
He had to quickly become independent so that his father could retreat from the front line sooner.
Only by becoming stronger quickly would Chu Yue be able to afford better healthcare.
Chu Yue was currently suffering from two main illnesses. The first was paralysis of her lower limbs caused by polio. Her lower limbs were atrophied, weak, and deformed.
The second was severe autism.
Autism, in other words, meant that brain development was delayed to the point she had the intelligence of a child.
Generally speaking, 70 percent to 80 percent of autistic children had varying degrees of intellectual disability.
Now, due to the recovery of the spiritual power, the plants in the wild mutated and produced many natural treasures that could develop spiritual intelligence.
If Chu Lingjun could get her hands on one, there was hope for her to recover from her autism!
This was not Chu Lingjun’s dream, but a real medical case.
People always thought that autistic syndrome was rare, but in fact, there are many autistic people around us.
In the Dragon Country, the probability of giving birth to an autistic child was one percent. In other words, one in 100 parents has an autistic child.
The Dragon Country had a population of 1.4 billion citizens, and the number of parents with autistic children reached an astonishing 10 million!
The reason why it wasn’t as common was because autistic people rarely went out.
Also, they didn’t know how to surf the internet.
Most parents would not be financially well-off or were a little cruel, causing these autistic children to have a short life span.
Many people are lucky to have been born with a healthy system.
