4: Let me go, my spiritual power!

Lu Zheng did have feelings for Wen Miaojun, but to say he had deep emotions for her, that was definitely not the case.

His own safety was more important.

Although the internet constantly said that the black fruit could improve physical fitness and even grant humans superpowers, he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, so he still needed to confirm it.

Otherwise, if it turned out to be poisonous, wouldn't his system have been for nothing?

When Wen Miaojun heard that this fruit was the magical fruit being promoted online, she immediately showed a surprised expression.

"No, this is too precious, A Zheng, you should eat it yourself!"

Lu Zheng wrapped an arm around Wen Miaojun's waist, picked up the fruit, and brought it to her mouth.

"Good girl, eat it quickly, this is what I found for you."

Wen Miaojun had a soft personality.

Lu Zheng's big-boy aura made her body go limp.

She was completely powerless to resist.

Subconsciously, she opened her cherry-red mouth and ate the black fruit.

This fruit was very peculiar; it melted upon entry, turning into a liquid that flowed into her body.

Wen Miaojun struggled, saying:

"A Zheng, let go of me quickly, it's so hot!"

After breaking free from Lu Zheng's embrace, driven by instinct, she emerged from under the covers, revealing her graceful figure clad only in a black silk qipao.

Exhaling a heavy breath, Wen Miaojun exclaimed in surprise:

"My strength seems to have increased quite a bit!"

Lu Zheng quickly asked:

"Aunt Wen, what superpower did you get?"

"It seems to be freezing."

Saying that, Wen Miaojun pointed to a corner nearby, and a cold light flew from her hand, landing on the corner, immediately forming a layer of frost.

'It really can grant superpowers!'

Lu Zheng's spirit was invigorated, and then he continued to ask:

"Aunt Wen, do you feel any discomfort?"

She shook her head, glancing at the electric heater.

"Nothing, I feel great, a feeling I've never had before, full of power, it's just a bit hot."

As she spoke, she stood up.

"A Zheng, I'm going to sit in the living room for a bit, to cool down."

Before she finished speaking, she rushed to the living room wearing cotton slippers and holding a down jacket, clearly overheated.

Her body was hot, and her heart was also warm.

Lu Zheng took out his phone and watched a few more videos about gaining superpowers after eating the black fruit.

He finally made a decision.

He took out a fruit and ate it.

The next moment, his body was filled with a surge of heat, and then, some information appeared in his mind, and a mass of energy formed in his brain.

His superpower had awakened, Psychokinesis, also known as, Telekinesis!

The initial power was only one hundred grams.

He could apply a force of one hundred grams in any direction to any target.

This force seemed very small; a cooked egg weighs about sixty to seventy grams, so he could only lift one egg, which seemed to have little destructive power.

But it's important to know that he could apply this force continuously.

With constant force and unchanging object mass, it meant he could continuously impart an acceleration to a certain object.

A bullet's warhead weighs approximately 5 grams; a force of one hundred grams could give it an acceleration of 20 meters per second squared.

The muzzle velocity of a pistol bullet is about 420 meters per second, which means, it would only take 21 seconds of acceleration to give the warhead the same power as a pistol.

Lu Zheng already had a pistol, so he didn't need this Psychokinesis to fire it.

However, this ability was incredibly practical for the current situation.

Digging black fruit from the snow was time-consuming and laborious, but if the black fruit could emerge from the snow by itself, it would be much easier.

These black fruit weigh only about five grams.

Applying Psychokinesis to them to make them emerge from the snow layer would be extremely convenient!

Without a doubt, with this superpower, Lu Zheng would quickly accumulate black fruit, thereby enhancing his supernatural abilities.

Currently, according to information provided online, the only way to directly enhance superpowers was to continue eating black fruit.

Eating more fruit at the same time could also grant him higher resistance to cold.

Lu Zheng immediately ate the remaining black fruit as well.

Then he found that his superpower had increased to one hundred and fifty grams; it seemed that one black fruit brought a significant improvement to his superpower.

If he ate one black fruit, he could resist minus forty degrees Celsius even naked.

However, during the process, the internal supernatural energy would be rapidly consumed.

This indicated that, essentially, his physical fitness had not reached a level sufficient to withstand extreme cold.

However, wearing a down jacket in a minus forty-degree environment, energy consumption was greatly reduced, and without combat consumption, relying on his own recovery ability, he could sustain long periods of movement.

After eating two fruit, he should be able to move freely in temperatures as low as minus sixty degrees Celsius.

With temperatures still dropping, to truly avoid freezing to death outdoors, he had to eat as many black fruit as possible.

One step fast, every step fast.

Lu Zheng felt fortunate for his decisive choice to go downstairs and dig in the snow.

If he had waited until the temperature dropped even lower, he might have frozen stiff before even digging up the first fruit.

After eating two fruit, he also felt a bit hot under the blowing of the electric heater.

He walked into the living room and saw Wen Miaojun sitting on the sofa, wearing a down jacket and making a phone call.

Lu Zheng gently walked over and sat beside her, lightly embracing her shoulder, and comforted her:

"Auntie, don't worry, he might have run out of phone battery. Once he finds a power bank, you'll be able to contact him."

"There's so much snow outside, and the temperature is still dropping."

"No matter how anxious you are, you can't go out to look for him."

"In this situation, you should take care of yourself and strive to survive. That way, you'll have a chance to see him again."

Worried about her son Qu Hao's safety, Wen Miaojun felt somewhat lost and panicked.

At this moment, being held in Lu Zheng's arms, although she felt it shouldn't be this way, that sense of security made her reluctant to break free.

Fortunately, Lu Zheng didn't let her agonize for too long.

He released Wen Miaojun, stood up, and said:

"Aunt Wen, you should rest inside. If you're bored, listen to music or watch shows. I've downloaded a lot of songs and TV series on the computer, so you don't have to worry about wasting electricity."

"I'm going out to continue searching for black fruit."

Wen Miaojun immediately stood up and said:

"I'll go with you."

Lu Zheng decisively refused.

"No, you need to stay and guard the house. Don't open the door for anyone except me, and protect our supplies well."

Actually, this wasn't the main reason.

On one hand, he was afraid that in case of an emergency, Wen Miaojun would be a burden.

Under these conditions, it wasn't easy to find a lucky goddess who could increase his gacha draws. He hadn't 'secured' her yet, so he couldn't let anything happen to her.

On the other hand, Lu Zheng also didn't want to expose his abilities too much in front of outsiders.

Wen Miaojun couldn't be considered one of his own yet, and even if he got more black fruit, he didn't plan to give them to her again.

At least until she completely became one of his own, she wouldn't be qualified to receive any more.

Wen Miaojun was helpless and could only watch as Lu Zheng, fully dressed, walked to the door.

"Be careful, I'll wait for you to come back."

After saying that, she blushed and closed the door.

Lu Zheng didn't go to the corridor but went straight to the underground parking lot.
