Chapter 14: Mutation
Lin Xinlan quickly abandoned the idea of bathing in the space. After all, she had found the space. She could bathe all she wanted when she returned home. But when she thought of the dirty and old clothes outside, Lin Xinlan frowned. She decided to find a new set of clothes here.
There were a lot of clothes in the space that she had salvaged from supermarkets. There were both children’s and adult’s clothes. contemporary romance
Lin Xinlan picked out a child’s skirt. It was low-quality in the apocalypse, but in this ancient era, it could be considered a very fine material. It would be too suspicious for Lin Yuelan to reappear wearing this dress. Lin Xinlan thought about it and removed the dress. She picked a thin innerwear and decided to put the host’s clothes back on later. Regardless, she was not going to wear the host’s old clothes directly on her skin. It was too uncomfortable.
Lin Xinlan drank a few mouthfuls of water and recovered her strength. She decided to leave. If she delayed for too long, who knew what would happen.
Lin Xinlan muttered, “Exit.” She was holding the thin cotton underwear.
Then, she came out from where she had entered just now.
With the recovery of her strength, Lin Xinlan became more alert. She looked around, but there was no one around. She stood up and put the clean clothes on the shore. Then, she grabbed the host’s dirty clothes to dry them in the river. She spread them out on a big rock to dry.
The summer sun was very hot, so the clothes would dry very quickly.
After doing all this, Lin Xinlan suddenly remembered something. If her dimension had followed her here, would Little Green have done the same?
With that thought in mind, Lin Xinlan spread out her hands, and released her spiritual power. Soon, two silk-like swirls twirled above her palm. They were gray and green.
“The earth, fire, water, metal, rain, wind, thunder elements?” Lin Xinlan was shocked. “What is going on?”
These elements had fused with her wood element.
After her death and transmigration, her dimensional power and wood element had come with her, but they had also fused with metal, water, fire, earth, and other elements, causing a new elemental mutation.
In the post-apocalyptic world, most awakened wielded one of the nine common elements, metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder, lightning, and space. Of course, there were other awakened who could turn invisible or transform into animals. However, there were very few awakened who could dual-wield powers. They were very rare and were often the leaders of the bases.
Lin Xinlan had two elemental powers. People knew she had the dimension and wood element. However, they thought her space element was just like everyone’s else, which was to store inanimate objects.
Lin Xinlan could have been the leader of the base with her two powers. But she held herself back because of the two scumbags. The two didn’t want her to be the leader because they believed that she would abandon them after she did.
Lin Xinlan was also dumb back then. To prove that she really cared about them, she rejected the many offers to be the base officials. Like the other single-element awakened, she went on many missions to earn food and rations for three people.
In the end, the other two had collusion. As soon as they learned the secret of Lin Xinlan’s space, they sold her out to the research institute.
“Master,” a crisp child’s voice rang out.
“Little Green?!” Lin Xinlan looked at the green sprouts in surprise. “Don’t cry.” Lin Xinlan gently stroked his tender sprout.
Little Green was Lin Xinlan’s wood elemental. It was a green vine with two leaves and a green sprout.
“Little Green, I’ve fused with all nine elements. What’s going on?” Lin Xinlan asked.
Little Green climbed onto Lin Xinlan’s wrist and then curled up to form a jade-colored bracelet. He answered, “It’s because of the blood-red liquid the doctors have injected you with at the end.”
“What do you mean?” Lin Xinlan was a little confused.
“That red liquid is the refined blood of nine different awakened with nine different powers. Those mad doctors wanted to use the blood to expose your space, but your body fused with the blood instead,” Little Green explained.
Lin Xinlan had more questions for Little Green, but she heard a sound coming from not far away. It sounded like someone was looking for her.
“This is strange. Where is the jinx? Could she have really turned into a ghost and disappeared?”
