Chapter 118: Superpower Reaction Test (1)

Superpower Management and Control Bureau, West Sea City Branch.

This was an imposing building complex. There were a few such towering buildings next to each other, connected to each other by an aerial bridge. The glass walls reflected the blue of the sky.

Zhou Jing stood at the entrance of the Supers Bureau and took a deep breath.

“Today will be my first step leaving the realm of humans…”

Normal citizens could come to the Supers Bureau at any time to apply for a Supers Reaction detection test. The Supers Bureau encouraged ordinary people to take the initiative to report if they found any abnormalities in their bodies.

The scheduled immigration check-up had yet to begin, but he did not intend to delay it until the general check-up. It was meaningless for him to act surprised, so he would take the opportunity to resolve these procedures while his astral travel was cooling down and take the initiative to report for the test.

The Immigration Bureau’s visited yesterday. Thus he woke up early today and went straight to the Supers Bureau.

Zhou Jing pushed open the door and walked in, being greeted with the sight of a spacious silver hall.

The front desk was filled with smart robots that could receive visitors.

There were a few uniformed security guards who also stood by the walls of the hall. They were all Rank 1 Supers who had been artificially enhanced. They belonged to the official security personnel and sized up everyone who entered.

Zhou Jing had read up on the processes online. At this moment, he composed himself and came to a receptionist robot.

“Hello, how can I help you?”

“I want to apply for a Supers Reaction detection test.”

As he spoke, Zhou Jing showed his identification.

“I’m currently checking your identity. Please wait a moment… Alright, Mr. Zhou Jing, according to the records in the backend, your past test results were all iof ordinary standard. May I ask why you want to apply for a superpower reaction test today? Did you notice any changes in your body?”

The robot made a routine inquiry.

“Yes, when I woke up a few days ago, I realized that there were abnormal changes in my body. I suspected that I had awakened a superpower, so I came to investigate.”

Zhou Jing replied calmly. He had already thought of an excuse in the past two days.

“Alright, I’ve made an appointment for you in Test Room 63. Please wait for the staff to arrive.”

Zhou Jing waited for a while before a burly man in uniform arrived.

“Come with me.”

This person did not exchange pleasantries and only bluntly spoke to him.

Zhou Jing followed the staff member and took the elevator all the way to one of the floors before walking into a metal room.

There were some complicated instruments in the room, as well as a tester in a lab coat.

“Please take off your shirt,” the tester spoke simply.

Zhou Jing cooperated.

The testers immediately started working. All kinds of cold metal instruments were attached to Zhou Jing’s body while the previous staff members watched from the side.

Neither of them spoke any nonsense. It was all business.

This kind of test was very routine. Ordinary people often came to do tests. Some mistakenly thought that they had superpowers, while others just wanted to get lucky and feel that they might be able to pass the test and obtain the treatment of a Super.

This was because there were too many people in society who wanted to become Supers. Some people even felt that they had awakened their superpowers just after eating two more bowls of rice.

The staff was already used to it. Before the results were out, they did not have any expectations.

Before long, all the tests were completed, and Zhou Jing put on his shirt.

“Please follow me to the lounge and wait for the results there. It will take about an hour.” A staff member immediately came over.

Zhou Jing had no objections. The Supers Bureau had existed for so many years, and this process had long been formalized.

He followed the staff member out of the testing room and into a spacious room on the same floor.

This was a waiting room for those who had undergone the test. There was a fruit platter, drinks, and cake. They could eat snacks while waiting.

After sending Zhou Jing to the lounge, the staff left.

Zhou Jing glanced around and realized that there were already more than ten people sitting in the lounge. They were people who were waiting for the test results like him.

Some were calm, while others were uneasy—it was as if they were waiting for fate to pronounce judgment.

Seeing that there was a newcomer, the dozen or so people turned around and sized him up curiously.

Zhou Jing casually found a seat. Just as he sat down, a middle-aged woman came over.

“Friend, are you here for the test too?”

“No, I came here because I lost my way.”

“Hehe, young man, you have a sense of humor…” The middle-aged woman laughed. Suddenly, she lowered her voice and said mysteriously,” Are you here to try your luck, or have you really awakened? ”

“Neither.”

“Huh? Then you…”

“I came over for a free snack.”

Zhou Jing casually picked up an apple and took a bite.

“Young man, you’re not being honest.” The middle-aged woman shook her head repeatedly.

Zhou Jing also had nothing to do in the meantime, so he casually struck up a conversation, “Auntie, have you awakened?”

The middle-aged woman immediately perked up.

“Let me tell you, when I cleaned the house last night, I found all the private stash of money that the old man had hidden and slapped him. I didn’t expect to knock him out. I wasn’t so strong in the past, so I must have awakened!”

“…”

Zhou Jing was speechless.

What does marriage do to men…

The middle-aged woman looked at Zhou Jing’s fair and clean face, and her eyes suddenly lit up. She said enthusiastically, “Young man, do you have a girlfriend?”

“Uh… what?”

Zhou Jing swallowed a mouthful of saliva. He felt a chill run down his spine under the auntie’s burning gaze.

Could it be that he had met the so-called “rich and old lady” like in the legends?

(TL Note: This one has been a running joke for a while, many of those netizens like to talk about how they would want to get a rich and old partner instead of a young and good-looking one because the rich and old partners are usually less temperamental and more willing to spend on them.)

Xu Lingyun, my good brother, I need you here!

At this moment, the auntie took out her phone and showed Zhou Jing several photos of beautiful girls.

“These are my daughters. Aren’t they beautiful? Young man, what’s your name? How about giving me your contact information? I’ll introduce you to them.”
