Chapter 427 God's Hand

"So you're staying here?"

Leila stared at Luisa's hands wrapped in linen with complicated emotions. The mystery that had troubled her for so long was finally partially solved, and her guess was confirmed. She did not have the ability to awaken spontaneously, and the root of everything was Luisa. This pair of "hands of God".

"Where else can I go? There is no place for me outside."

Louisa can now calmly accept this fact, but at the beginning, there was a huge turmoil in her heart, and she couldn't let go of it for a long time.

The chief foresaw that she would stay in the witchcraft tribe and become the high priest here. This kind of prophecy in the general direction is different from the trivial matter of whether she stretches out her left foot or her right foot first when she gets out of bed. She can do the opposite on purpose. As a matter of fact, the more important the matter, the more prudent she must be. Her character is not the kind of ignorant rural woman who can drink pesticides just to fight.

Even if she left the witchcraft tribe, where could she go?

This world is not as easy to change as she imagined. Although her ability is dubbed "God's Hand" by the chief, she is helpless when facing the villagers. She is no different from ordinary people. Once she leaves here, she will be arrested by the villagers. It was a dead end, and the villagers burned her to death and buried her, and no one outside would know that there was one less person in the world.

The chief knew she wouldn't accept it so quickly, and gave her plenty of time to think about it, telling her that she could stay with the tribe as long as she wanted before she made up her mind to leave.

So Louisa lived in the tribe, and has lived there ever since.

Now she has already integrated into the tribe and has become an important member respected and indispensable by everyone in the tribe. Her status is almost equal to that of the chief, but at that time, she was still very uncomfortable.

When she was a child, she lived with her parents in the village. Although the conditions were difficult, at least...it was relatively normal. Later, she got used to the modern school life in a European school, and suddenly entered the primitive society. The gap between the two took a long time time to adapt.

Unexpectedly, she integrated into the tribe much faster than she expected, because the girls in the tribe who were younger than her were so cute, they regarded her as a well-informed older sister, and surrounded her all day long asking questions. Asking the west, they are all curious about the distant outside world.

According to the chief, most of these children are children of the original tribe members, that is, ordinary tribe members who have no awakening ability, and some children come from other tribes in the rainforest.

Not only these children, but every night when the bonfire is lit, members of the tribe sing and dance around the bonfire, and listen to her talk about the outside world curiously.

No matter the geography, economy, geopolitics or environmental issues of the outside world, no matter what she said, they all listened with great interest and expressed their amazement from time to time.

Never before have so many people listened so closely to Luisa's every word, never before has she been so needed, what she learned in school, what she saw in other countries in Africa after she left school, what she learned as a child Experiences have all become valuable spiritual food for tribal members... except for science knowledge such as mathematics, physics, and chemistry.

Luisa also tried to teach them English, mathematics, physics, chemistry and other subjects. Although she didn't learn very deeply, she was more than enough to enlighten them.

However, they are not good at learning, have no interest, and there are no equipment needed for experiments in the tribe, so this has little effect... The most important thing is that they can't see the use of this knowledge, so naturally they don't Dynamic learning.

In fact, this is also human nature. For ordinary students, if they are not forced by exams, who would think that calculus and trigonometric functions can be used in daily life?
As long as they don't leave the tribe, I'm afraid they won't be able to use this knowledge for the rest of their lives. What's the use of learning it?

So then Luisa gave up too.

The so-called integration is not a sudden feeling of belonging one day, but like this, she gradually forgot the idea of ​​leaving. Even when she occasionally thinks about it, she will deliberately avoid this problem and comfort herself. Time, wait for the outside wind to pass, and it will not be too late to leave after a while.

Luisa was worried that in her daily life, she would accidentally touch a girl who had not yet awakened her ability, causing her to suddenly awaken a terrible ability that she could not control, just like the girl who killed her father, so she used a dried plantain Ye wrapped her hands and forearms, but banana leaves were airtight and hard, making it uncomfortable to wrap her skin. She switched to animal skins, but the skins were stuffy and inconvenient for daily activities. , until a long time later, when she went out to the nearby farmer's market to purchase some useful living materials for the tribe, she bought a piece of linen for herself to make gloves that grew to the elbow.

For a long time, she didn't use her ability to awaken other girls. She was conflicted and afraid of her own power, and the chief didn't urge her.

until that happened.

The superhumans in the civilized world are all women, and most women do not advocate strength, as can be seen from the ratio of men to women in the gym, so body-enhanced superhumans are relatively rare in the civilized world, while in primitive tribes , the proportion of body-enhanced Transcendents is much larger than that of the outside world. Another type with a similar number is animalization. Because primitive tribes inherently worship beasts, several women will turn into black panthers, and then there are some The type is the ferocious power of nature such as fire and electricity.

Compared with the colorful ability types of the outside world, limited by vision and knowledge, the ability types in the tribe are indeed too monotonous. If it is practical, they are all quite practical, but there are some... key auxiliary abilities, Such as medical treatment.

In addition, most of these ability types are used to fight against nature, not against other superhumans, such as the terrifying ability of a girl who kills her father, which has never appeared in the tribe.

Usually it's nothing, but the problem is... the world is not as calm as it seems.

Luisa lived in the tribe for about half a year. She didn't have a calendar, and the judgment of time was that the climate changed from rainy season to dry season, and then a terrible thing happened in the tribe.

One day, a member of the tribe who went hunting did not return until nightfall. The chief feared that something had happened, so he sent several members to search for it, and these people never returned.

The chief made a decisive decision, thinking that it was unlikely that a powerful giant beast appeared in the forest. These experienced huntresses would judge the situation and decide whether to fight or run, and they would not act recklessly. Entering the state of combat readiness, everyone is forbidden to go out, all lights are extinguished, and several animal-like ability users will patrol around the tribe to prevent the invasion of powerful enemies.

In the middle of the night, two or three of the missing members came back, but... they were not them anymore, they turned into monsters with gray eyes and extremely bloodthirsty.

The chief prevented her men from letting them in in time, because she foresaw that these former sisters had become monsters, and if they were let in, they would bring havoc to the entire tribe.

But even so, in order to eliminate these two or three monsters, the tribe paid a very high price. Several members were bitten during the fight. Total kill.

By the next morning, everything finally returned to calm. The overall strength of the tribe has not been fundamentally shaken by the downsizing, but the blow to the morale of the tribe members is huge.

From the corpses of the first two or three monsters, the chief found the tooth marks of humans, judged that a very powerful and troublesome transcendent appeared nearby, and roughly judged the enemy's ability type.

The usual peace and tranquility of the tribe is gone. Members with awakened ability are on the alert every day, while members without awakened ability are both afraid and sad for losing their companions who are like sisters, and feel that they have become a drag on the tribe.

Luisa also spent the night in panic. She finally realized that the world of supernatural beings is not harmonious. There will always be people who want to take your life for no reason. Two completely different results. If she had awakened these children's abilities before, maybe last night would be another story. For example, the ability of a girl who kills her father can only be achieved through physical contact, whether it is active contact or passive contact. It can kill a person very thoroughly, no matter whether that person has become a bloodthirsty monster or not.

So, after a lapse of half a year, she unlocked the seal on her hands.

"A ferocious bloodthirsty monster? It looks like a legendary vampire..." Leila frowned. "There are rumors in the world that there really is such an extraordinary person, but no one has ever publicly confirmed it."

She stared at Luisa's self-imposed seal with both hands, and finally understood why a primitive tribe hidden deep in the tropical rainforest has risen rapidly in recent years, and it can be as famous as Hongye Academy and Ninja Academy. Luisa's existence is simply a bug, she is like A mobile arsenal, continuously transporting powerful soldiers for the witchcraft tribe, and the witchcraft tribe quietly develops in the desolate rainforest. If it is a few years later, once the witchcraft tribe decides to go out of the rainforest, who in the world will Can you compete with them?The black whirlwind will surely sweep across all corners of the country.

"No, it's not what you think." Luisa seemed to be infected by the chief's oral habit, she shook her head and said, "I can't awaken every school-age girl."

"What do you mean?" Layla asked.

"Because awakening requires prerequisites. In addition to being suitable for absorbing the ubiquitous source energy of the air, a strong subconscious mind or obsession is also indispensable." Luisa explained, this sentence is known to almost everyone who is extraordinary common sense.

"However, even a girl who meets the prerequisites may not be able to awaken. Awakening often requires an opportunity, such as a huge crisis, a strong emotional impact, etc., but even if there is an opportunity, it is still not necessarily able to awaken. The reasons are more complicated , It may be that the emotional impact is not strong enough, or the timing of the opportunity is not right, the body is not ready for awakening, etc. "

"And my ability is to push them behind the back, to awaken girls who are between awakening and non-awakening, or to awaken girls who awakened after a period of time, that's all... I'm just a How can a mortal deserve to be called the 'Hand of God'."

Luisa looked directly at Leila, "Like you, even if I didn't intervene, you might wake up naturally within a few days or weeks."

"It may never be awakened." Leila smiled self-deprecatingly, "Those silly girls who take the initiative to send their faces to the door are rare. If I miss that time, I don't know if it will happen again in a monkey year. A huge crisis, as for the emotional impact... Well, if I don't awaken and my cousin does, it will indeed have a huge emotional impact on me, a huge impact that makes me want to die."

Luisa froze for a moment, she couldn't quite understand the second part of Leila's words.

"No, what I mean is, if your ability is not worthy of being called 'God's Hand', then there is no one else in the world who is more worthy of this title-if ordinary people who are not awakened are 0, awakened The last transcendent is 1. There is a long fuzzy zone between 0 and 1, and you can round 0.5 and 0.6 to 1. I really can't imagine any ability more amazing than your ability. "

Leila seldom really praises and admires others, let alone her cousin Aurora, even Li Muqin, who once frightened her with a trick, is still not convinced, but she has nothing to say when faced with Luisa's ability It can be said that this ability is too heaven-defying, and it can be said that it is the spokesperson of God. If Luisa has enough ambition and means, she can even recruit an army of extraordinary people to sweep the world.

Fortunately, Luisa's face was painted with oil paint, otherwise she would have blushed in the face of the compliments from her former classmates.

"It's not that powerful. I think I can only awaken girls at a level of 0.8 or 0.9 at most. If it's lower, I won't be able to do it," she said.

Leila laughed, is this the point?Even if it is 0.8 or 0.9, there are hundreds of millions of girls in the world. The difference is that her army of superhumans has 10 or 1 people, right?It seems that even if Luisa becomes the high priest of the witchcraft tribe, she is still similar to the obscure and unambitious refugee classmate in memory.

"However, your ability should not only speed up the awakening of others, right?"

Leila reminisces about the feeling of invincibility on the day of her awakening. Although the memory always has a brain supplement, she has far surpassed herself at that time, but that feeling can't come back, just like watching it when she was a child. My comics and movies always make a deep impression on me, even if I read the same comics and movies when I grow up, I can't get back the original emotion.

Luisa didn't hide it, and said bluntly: "Actually, I think my ability is essentially 'charging and overloading'."
