Su Su woke up with water all over her body again. She cooked some noodles and an egg. After that, she sat at the dining table and slowly finished the noodles. She then walked to the sofa and sat down cross-legged. There was an empty bowl on the coffee table in front of her, so she started to close her eyes and feel the water power in her body.
At her current stage, her power was still in an uncontrollable state. Therefore, she would often wake up with water all over her body. This was the result of the energy in her body slowly being released in her sleep. After she ate something, the energy would slowly be replenished back into her body.
What Su Su needed to do was to control it and condense her soul essence!
During the 12 years of the apocalypse, Su Su was very familiar with such things. Perhaps it was because she was always thinking of her Xiao Ai. Thinking that if she did not become stronger, she would not be able to find Xiao Ai, then she would be able to calm down faster than ordinary people. Her body and mind would enter a state of complete silence, after reaching this state, Su Su felt as if she had entered a strange world, a completely closed but vast and quiet world.
Later, she saw that her surroundings were filled with water. Those water were occasionally carrying specks of silver light. What Su Su needed to do was to collect these silver lights and stack them in a fixed place.
At first, those silver lights were difficult to capture. When Su Su tried to catch them, they ran away very fast. If she did not plan to catch them, they would slow down. They were even more mischievous than Xiao Ai. However, no matter how mischievous they were, Su Su maintained a calm state of mind, she was neither worry nor anxious, neither happy nor angry. She treated it as a game of hide-and-seek with Xiao Ai. Slowly, she actually caught a silver light.
When she got one, then she would have her hands on the second one and so on… The silver light that Su Su had placed on the spot gradually grew larger. However, not long after, just as Su Su was about to grab the next silver light, the silver light that had been piled up on the spot suddenly scattered and disappeared.
Fine. That was a very common phenomenon. Su Su did not feel discouraged at all. She just continued to grab the silver light and piled them together. After watching them scatter again, she continued.
While she was immersed in this strange world, Su Su was sitting on the sofa with her eyes closed. A faint mist surrounded her. The mist quickly entered and exited Su Su’s body. Every time the mist entered and left her body, the mist could flow further. Finally, when the sky turned dark, the white mist was almost out of the living room.
For the last time, Su Su opened her eyes in exhaustion. She looked around and saw that her surroundings were white as if she had turned on a humidifier. The empty bowl in front of her was filled with water. Su Su felt quite satisfied. The apocalypse had not started, but she had already awakened her water power. If she continued to train every day, it would be best if she could reach the level of fighting monsters with her power before the apocalypse.
Regarding the classification of the special ability users that appeared after the apocalypse, it was not based on how cool a person could display their skills. Instead, it was based on the energy intensity that a person could control, whether it was the basic elemental special ability users or the mutated superhuman, they were all divided into different levels. These levels represented the intensity of the energy used.
Su Su had already awakened her ability before, but she did not notice it at all. She only felt that her fingers were a little moist, as if she was sweating. She was not even considered a superhuman yet that time. Later on, she could release water, but she would still wake up from time to time covered in water, that was the first sign of the awakening of her water ability. She was trying to control her ability. Once she completely controlled the water ability in her body, she would reach level-1. Only then would she be considered to have truly awakened her special ability.
Therefore, the awakening of her ability was a long process. Many water users were still in the stage where they could only release water to others to drink after the apocalypse. They had no experience, and no one could give them any. Hence, they could only slowly figure out a training method that was suitable for them in the process of continuously releasing water.
In her previous life, the method Su Su used to improve was to act as a reservoir in the team. She was pregnant with Xiao Ai that time, so she did not want to go out and fight monsters to level up. That was why her ability advancement was very slow. Others had already reached level-2, and they could create a variety of offensive and defensive moves. However, she was still releasing water to her teammates.
Later, for some unknown reason, her ability mutated and she became an ice ability user. In an instant, she jumped from level-1 to level-3. She became an expert in fighting monsters and defending her teammates.
She was envied by others. In that world, being envied by others meant that one would be in a dangerous situation. Many people came to her to ask how could she mutate her ability. They also asked her how could one mutate as quickly as she did???
How did she know?!?! It could only be said that she had gone overboard and triggered a second mutation.
In the beginning, superhuman would only trigger five elemental superpowers. Metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Then, some people would mutate. Water user could mutate into an ice user, a fog ability user, a thunder user, or even a healing-type superhuman… There were many types of powers. Su Su had seen a lot of them, not to mention those she had never seen before.
This was called the second mutation. Only a small amount of superhuman could undergo second mutation. Perhaps, out of 100 ordinary people, there were only 10 of them were superhumans. However, out of these 10 superhumans, there was only 1 that could mutate twice, or none at all.
However, it did not mean that the abilities of the five major elemental abilities were inferior to those of the second mutation. They could not say that a level-4 water user was inferior to a level-3 ice user, right? The power control of the level-4 water user should be stronger. Even if the he was a level-3 ice user, the level-4 water user would still win against a level-3 ice user.
Therefore, it was not important what their special abilities were. What was important was to level up!
After training her soul essence for the whole day, Su Su was a little tired. She got up, took a shower, and cooked some food. Then, she went out to the supermarket. This time, she tried to buy as many jackets and thermal underwear as possible. She also bought some comfortable sportswear suitable for running and jumping.
She bought jackets for both adults and children. She also bought different sizes of thermal underwear for her family members. However, she only bought a sportswear for herself. After the apocalypse, she did not need her parents to go out and fight monsters, nor did she want her parents to run for their lives. Hence, it was a waste of money to buy them sportswear. She just did not buy sportwear for her parents. Su Su still did buy a lot of jackets and thermal underwear for her parents.
Lastly, she would purchase some baby products. Su Su had bought the most expensive bed for Xiao Ai, which was RMB 8,888. The price stunned Su Su at first, but when she heard that salesman said that it had all the functions to protect her Xiao Ai, such as anti-vibration system, made from imported wood that did not contain any harmful substances… Su Su bought it without even thinking twice!
Every mother wanted to give their baby the best, and Su Su was no exception.
