Chapter 15: The Strange World

Just when the commotion over supernatural occurrence here in Luo Cheng was overwhelming and barely concealable, a website called The Golden Foundation surfaced.
The content of the website was simple. Lu Shu could see many videos on the home page of the site.
Incredibly, they were all videos of supernatural occurrences which he had watched but were removed online.
Lu Shu, at this moment, thought that this website would be closed down soon as well. After all, there was no running away from the government online.
However, something different about this website was that it contained supernatural videos from not just China, but other foreign countries as well.
Lu Shu didn’t even think of this issue previously, but thinking about it now, since people had started to awaken their abilities in China, there was no reason why this would not happen in other countries.
How will this change the world and political relations? Lu Shu was unsure. After all, there were many different types of state of the art weaponry now, who knows what would happen in future.
All these metahumans did not seem very significant to the country. Liang Che, for example, was taken away so easily.
Will people still be governed by their countries or just fend for their own survival in future? Lu Shu didn’t think that everything would be as simple.
The metahumans who desire true freedom… they had to at least have a degree of capability to resist and put up a fight against all these technology and weapons.
When these metahumans reach this degree of level, there might really be chaos in our world.
But of course, not every metahuman needs to cause an uproar or commotion. After all, it was a period of peace, and even if there was a sudden power, these people didn’t necessarily have to show up and cause a huge commotion.
Lu Shu, for example, only wanted to stay low key and earn big money.
Lu Shu opened up the topmost video. Coincidentally, it was depicting Luo Cheng’s fire from yesterday. One guy managed to secretly film Liang Che setting the mall ablaze.
And at this moment, Lu Shu suddenly noticed that every video had been categorized, from D to E to F. Liang Che’s video had E on it. The guy who breathed the clouds was labeled D, and in another video in which a guy turned inhumanly strong. This video was labeled F.
Could it be there were different classes of metahumans? Lu Shu then checked all the alphabet categorizations on the website and found a peculiar trend: Lu Shu’s type of metahumans belonged to E and above, and those regarding strength were categorized to F. There were no exceptions.
He returned to the homepage to check for other trends, but just as he returned, he realized that the website was updated! The categorizations were now more detailed!
The classes were from A to F, which was to say that the metahumans were divided into six classes, ABCDEF.
Metahumans who gained strength were class F. Elemental metahumans such as Liang Che belonged to class E.
Lu Shu thought for a moment. It made sense to classify them as such. Even if you were inhumanely strong, you wouldn’t be able to beat someone who can emit flames.
E class possessed elemental abilities.
D class could evade weapons effectively.
C class could resist and counter human weapons.
B class could draw strength from the heaven and Earth.
A class could resonate with the heaven and Earth.
Resonate with the heaven and earth… Just the sound of it was formidable… Wouldn’t it be incredible when used in battle?
Lu Shu, while looking at these classifications, wondered when he could attain class A.
Looking at the predicament now, he was merely an F class. In fact, one of the weaker ones within the class F.
Others had immense strength to lift cars, and he had to exert his all his strength to punch out a few 100 pounds worth of power.
However, there was an explanation on this classification page. Metahumans who awakened special abilities had differences from those who awakened the ability to cultivate their skills. Those with specific special abilities had a harder task to improve as they had to awaken special skills, and could only rely on their sole awakening.
And those who had to cultivate and improve their skills would get it easier.
It seemed to make sense, just like Lu Shu himself. Although he knew he was just a lowly F class, he was hopeful of the future as he had much room for growth and improvement.
And as for those metahumans who wanted to keep awakening and discovering new powers, that would be quite impossible.
The videos on the Golden Foundation had D class as the highest class, and there were only slightly more than 10 D class metahumans across the whole globe.
Could that be interpreted as there were fewer people in the classes C,B and A?
Perhaps it was only the start of this spiritual generation, and there were not many such strong metahumans as of yet.
Once there were more people in C class or higher, these people could be very destructive and hard to handle. What would change in the world then?
And even those who only awakened strength, once their strength reaches a level, they’ll be hard to deal with as well.
Lu Shu wondered about the huge possibilities and numbers of all these metahumans.
The government probably did not sit idly and wait for something to happen. They had to take precautions amidst this potentially dangerous situation.
Not caring about anyone else, Lu Shu felt a heat in his heart. He wanted to raise his ability quickly, to see a few more lighted stars and if possible, even an entire nebula and see what changes will occur.
How could he gain distress points quickly?
Going against the world would be the fastest, and distress points would come in quickly, but he didn’t have the ability to go against the entire world.
To speak the truth, Lu Shu didn’t really mind having the whole world dislike him, but he didn’t have the ability to do so.
Currently, he could only use the methods he once used to gain distress points.
He didn’t know why, but Lu Shu felt like he was going on a route towards evil people…
Where there were more evil people, he could amass distress points faster…
It was a silent night, and there was still thick snow outside the window. The entire world outside seemed cold and white.
Lu Shu looked at the website and suddenly shouted, “Lu Xiaoyu, you eating potato chips?”
Lu Xiaoyu’s voice echoed from next door, “Lu Shu you still have potato chips?”
“Nope!” Lu Shu replied emotionlessly.
“From Lu Xiaoyu’s distress, +199…”
Seeing distress points from Lu Xiaoyu made Lu Shu feel very happy. Usually, it was Lu Xiaoyu annoying him but now it was the other way around.
Currently, in the class group, Lu Shu’s classmates were shocked after seeing those videos. Previously, everyone was still joking and they didn’t expect the appearance of such a website, classifying so intricately the metahumans.
Everything looked to be the truth.
The videos were previously seen, the Golden Foundation was just a cumulation of all these videos, and the classifications seemed to be of reason as well.
Could it be that the strange, supernatural world could really be upon the humans?
