Su Changxing’s Mysteriousness is skyrocketing.
The volu of those invisible black mists is growing larger and larger. On the ground and walls, twisted and dense symbols appear, resembling so kind of hieroglyphics, structured and seemingly aningful.
"Sure enough, a ritual has ford once again. It seems that a gathering of many people tends to trigger rituals, even if they are sowhat useless..."
Su Changxing murmured, noticing a special scent diffusing in the air, different from incense, very subtle and not easily detectable.
This ti, no previous accidents occurred, nor did it attract heretics. Everything seed within expectation.
Only a few of the Extraordinary in the scene were conscious, observing this eerie situation, holding their breath for fear of disturbing sothing.
Many people’s bodies underwent significant changes; though it wasn’t visible on the surface, Su Changxing could observe through "True Knowledge."
These people are likely to beco Extraordinary, or they may beco so in the future.
Half an hour later, Su Changxing’s eyes slightly widened, realizing the first Extraordinary had been born, none other than Huang Biao.
This was also within expectation and quite reasonable.
[Reviver: Tier Nine, Upper Rank, possesses a strong physique and recovery abilities, applicable to oneself or others]
Recovery Ability?
Isn’t that similar to a dic?
Su Changxing lifted his eyelids, not expecting such a tough guy as Huang Biao to awaken such an Ability, possibly related to his inner qualities... indeed, appearances can be deceiving.
Huang Biao quickly awakened as well, first baffled, then breaking into a smile, walking cheerfully towards Su Changxing:
"Ha, thanks to you, brother, I am now an Extraordinary too."
Su Changxing reminded him, "Take a look at your specific position first, what Ability do you have?"
Imdiately, Huang Biao’s face showed a look of surprise, saying: "I... am a Reviver, with healing-like thods."
As he spoke, a scar on his face visibly faded away, replaced by fresh skin, lighter than the surrounding skin color.
Healing thods appear exceedingly important in such turbulent tis, which is why Su Changxing values the Healing Totem.
Huang Biao looked back and whispered, "Besides , have other Extraordinary been born?"
Su Changxing nodded, "There should be a few more, and the number may have already exceeded my previous expectations."
According to Su Changxing’s anticipation, although the number of people is many, at most three Extraordinary would be born this ti: Huang Biao, Chang Yi, and Zhang Shun.
These three are the most likely to beco Extraordinary, and they were the closest, while the possibilities for others are comparatively lower.
Zhang Shun has a Superpower, but it is sowhat trivial, so his sense of presence is not strong.
Now it seems there are more than just these three with the opportunity to beco Extraordinary; the effect of the ritual is better than Su Changxing imagined, so good it’s rather... absurd.
"Does this count as influencing the Truth?"
Su Changxing recalled the Tier Nine position displayed by the heretic’s Matrix, Cheat, seemingly able to transcend the rules of reality to so extent.
The peculiar glow unique to several Extraordinary shone among the sleeping crowd, including those displaying symptoms of corpse transformation.
The symbols and patterns on the floor of the room beca more solid, though their manifestation was unclear, arranged according to a specific pattern, constantly changing.
Su Changxing noticed that his increase in Mysteriousness was slowing, gradually halting at a certain point, checking his phone, it stopped around 1800.
"What’s going on?"
Then, he noticed the Mysteriousness gradually dissipating, along with a feeling of Spiritual Power being drawn away, just like when he used Teng Beng’s Ability in the ruins.

The pathway log indicated that due to the sacrifice, his Mysteriousness was decreasing, which should be considered the price of this ritual.
Soon, the second Extraordinary was born, precisely Chang Yi, with rings of white light appearing around his body.
[Fire Controller: Tier Nine, Upper Rank, possesses a high affinity for flas, capable of influencing most forms of fire]
Chang Yi did not imdiately awaken, still in his slumber, his consciousness seemingly not as strong as Huang Biao’s.
Su Changxing furrowed his brow, noticing his Mysteriousness decreasing at an accelerated rate.
This ritual seed like a giant agitator, siphoning his Mysteriousness.
However, he stubbornly continued, realizing more than ten people were about to forge their path, stepping into the ranks of the Extraordinary.
This ritual was like a giant hand, forcibly dragging these people into the Extraordinary’s door, extrely violently.
The Mysteriousness had already dropped to 1200.
At this mont, a tall, robust man slowly opened his eyes, standing up among the crowd, precisely Ye Yongqiang.
He looked at Su Changxing, showing a respectful smile, knowing he is now an Extraordinary, with Su Changxing’s help.
[You gained firm trust,
230 Mysteriousness]
Simultaneously, his Mysteriousness rebounded over 200, but it was like a drop in the bucket; the rate of Mysteriousness decline was faster.

Soon after, Zhang Shun also opened his eyes, becoming an Extraordinary, sat up, looked around the scene, appearing sowhat dazed, scratched his head, and muttered to himself:
"So now I’m an Extraordinary? Isn’t this a bit too easy? Well, even becoming an Extraordinary, one might still die, not much difference."
Previously, he didn’t believe he could beco an Extraordinary, likening it to buying lottery tickets; knowing he likely wouldn’t win, but still holding onto a sliver of hope.
The head noticed sothing, suddenly shouting: "Hey, kid, stop, this ritual is draining your Power, it’s dangerous!"
Su Changxing remained expressionless, standing on the dense symbols, calmly saying: "Mm, I know, rituals are not without cost, you and I both know that."
This Mysteriousness was also obtained from these people, so spending it on them didn’t make Su Changxing feel bitter, akin to "the wool coming from the sheep’s back."
The power of the Extraordinary seed to be built on sothing called Mysteriousness, the exact nature of which was unclear, definitely not pure Energy, more like the interplay between the world’s internal chanisms.
