[I wrote this chapter for two days. I had many positive and optimistic thoughts such as' I might as well die 'and' I might as well die '.]
Although it was a mattress, it was actually just a thin black blanket. Lying on it, apart from the stench, Lin Sanjiu could even feel the frame of the mattress … Lin Sanjiu flipped over, and the frame of the mattress let out a jarring squeak.
Even though it was dark, Lin Sanjiu could still see everything that was going on in her cubicle. The ventilation in the basement was poor and there was a faint dusty smell in the air. There were a few nails on the wall of the room. They were probably used to hang clothes. The living conditions were really simple. Lin Sanjiu could even hear the sound of the person next door scratching himself in his sleep. She didn't know if it was because she was in an unfamiliar environment, but she couldn't fall asleep even after lying on the bed for a long time.
If what Hu Changzai said was true, that the people in this place gained their abilities through drugs, she didn't need to stay here any longer.
After all, she didn't join the oasis for food, drinks, and a place to sleep. She wanted to find a Consular Officer.
However, how could there be a Consular Officer among more than a thousand ordinary people?
Lin Sanjiu didn't know why she thought of the vague figure she saw just now. "Forget it, I'll stay for a few more days and see how things go …" Her mind was a jumbled mess.
She didn't know how much time had passed, but she felt her eyelids getting heavier and her consciousness blurring.
Just as she was about to fall into a dream, a strong electric current suddenly shot through her body.
Lin Sanjiu's eyes widened. She couldn't control her body and started to tremble. His body was trembling so violently that the metal frame of the bed also let out a "da da da" sound, which was especially loud in the silent space. She wanted to move her fingers, but she realized that she had lost control of her body again … Even though it was different from the previous time, she wasn't unfamiliar with it.
"Damn it, why did my ability have to evolve at this moment!"
Gritting her teeth, she wanted to roll to the ground. After all, the rattling of the bed frame was too loud and it would attract people. When she was evolving, she had no ability to protect herself at all. If a stranger came in … Although the oasis seemed peaceful, she did not want to take any risks.
But how could it be easy to turn things around when he couldn't move?
She used the force of her trembling body to push herself away from the wall a little. Her long hair fell from the back of her head. "This is not enough," Lin Sanjiu thought anxiously.
However, she was running out of time. The sound of the next-door neighbor, who had been sound asleep a moment ago, suddenly stopped breathing. Then, the bed creaked, as if the person had sat up. Then, the footsteps arrived at 1629's door and stopped outside the curtain.
"Hey … are you a newcomer?" A woman reprimanded in a low, dissatisfied voice, "Why did you choose to do this when everyone is sleeping? All of you are shameless! Stop! "
Even though Lin Sanjiu had lost control of her body, she was still conscious. She was stunned when she heard what her neighbor said. After two seconds, she suddenly understood what her neighbor meant. She almost vomited blood. What did she think she was doing?!
Even though the bed was indeed very loud.
The woman outside the door waited for a while. When she realized that the noise was still rhythmically going on, she finally felt a little puzzled. She pulled the curtain aside and cried out in surprise, "Hey, what's wrong with you?"
Lin Sanjiu, who couldn't say a word, heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, her heart was in her throat.
The neighbor who rushed in was a long-haired woman in her thirties. She was wearing a light yellow Winnie the Pooh pajamas. She was very decisive. She immediately helped the trembling Lin Sanjiu down from the bed and let her lie on her lap.
"Hey, hey, can you talk?" The woman slapped Lin Sanjiu's face repeatedly, "Are you suffering from epilepsy?"
Lin Sanjiu couldn't tell if her trembling was due to her evolution or because she was angry at the woman.
Fortunately, the time for her evolution was short. Lin Sanjiu gradually calmed down and regained control of her body. When Lin Sanjiu realized that she could move again, she jumped up from the woman's lap. She glared at the woman for a while. She wanted to say something, but she realized that the woman didn't do anything wrong. With great difficulty, she squeezed out a few words, "I'm fine now. Thank you."
The woman remained expressionless. She didn't leave. Instead, she asked, "What's wrong with you? Do you do it often? Do you do it often when you're sleeping? Do I need to change rooms with Yu? "
Lin Sanjiu was so angry that she almost laughed. She gritted her teeth and said, "It's not an illness! You don't understand. This is a normal reaction when one's ability evolves. "
"Huh?" The woman was surprised. She looked at Lin Sanjiu from head to toe. "You also evolved naturally. Me too. "
Lin Sanjiu sighed, "Then, why can't you tell?"
"I don't know … I came here early. My ability hasn't evolved for a long time."
It was probably because the life in Oasis was too comfortable.
"Alright … Anyway, thank you for your help. My name is Lin Sanjiu. You are? "Lin Sanjiu quickly adjusted her emotions and extended her hand to the woman.
Her outstretched hand was casually touched by the woman, so it could be considered as a handshake. Then, the woman said, "My name is Fang Dan. Let's not get too close. After all, we don't know how long you can live. "
After saying such a strange thing, Fang Dan stood up and prepared to leave.
"So, the natural posthumans in Oasis are all weirdos with no common sense?" Lin Sanjiu wanted to cover her face and sigh, "Hey, what do you mean by that?"
Fang Dan looked at her innocently. "Newcomers like you who have just arrived and are very strong are usually sent out to do difficult missions. So, the survival rate isn't high. "After saying that, the woman turned around and walked away coolly.
Lin Sanjiu looked at the woman's back and didn't know what to say. The board was not soundproof. She could hear Fang Dan walking back and lying down on the bed. In less than ten minutes, she could hear faint snoring coming from the bed.
"This person is really … frustrating." Lin Sanjiu grumbled in her heart. She didn't really care about the difficult mission that Fang Dan mentioned. She had experienced all the strange and dangerous things in Hyperthermal Hell. Could the mission in Oasis be more dangerous than the pocket dimension?
From the sound of it, Fang Dan seemed to be fast asleep.
Lin Sanjiu, who had been sitting in the dark for a long time, opened her palm cautiously.
It was time to check the ability that she had just evolved. After this evolution, she had a strong urge to summon a card. It seemed that the evolution this time should be a card.
With a thought, a card silently appeared in her palm. The previous white light disappeared. This time, the card didn't move at all.
