Chapter 165: Poker Cards

Two months later, Chen Chen stood in the middle of an empty metal room. There was a white card before him that fluttered up and down in his vision.

It was a poker card.

If someone came across this sight, they would be shocked to notice that the card was fully suspended in the air.

Yes, fully suspended.

It was not only suspended. If one got closer, one would find that the poker card was trembling slightly as if an invisible hand was holding it and the tremor was just a natural response of the human body.

Meanwhile, as Chen Chen moved his gaze to the right, the poker card also moved to his right. When Chen Chen turned to look at his left, the poker card swooped to the left too.

Following that, Chen Chen turned around in a circle. The poker card maintained a distance of thirty centimeters in front of Chen Chen the entire time like it was Chen Chen’s shadow.

Upon observing this, Chen Chen suddenly closed his eyes.

Nonetheless, even after his eyes were shut, the card still hovered before him. Then, in accordance with Chen Chen’s thoughts, the poker card started to twirl around Chen Chen.

It was like a dancing butterfly.

Finally, Chen Chen prodded with his mind. From a table beside him, three or four poker cards flew into the air and revolved ceaselessly around Chen Chen. Every movement of each card was identical.

“My current limit is controlling four poker cards at the same time…”

Chen Chen mumbled with his eyes shut. After that, the four poker cards began to move on different trajectories, but this only lasted for a brief moment.

In the next second, he suddenly lost control over the four cards which scattered onto the ground.

“Trying to focus on four things at once is still too much…”

Chen Chen shook his head, then opened his eyes.

Unlike the protagonist Andrew in the movie Chronicle, Chen Chen had specially designed several training courses for himself. For example, the current training with poker cards was a way to improve the accuracy of his control.

By controlling the poker cards, he could increase his brain’s control over the electromagnetic force.

Besides, Chen Chen also had corresponding strength training and endurance training. After all, as the movie mentioned, this ability could be enhanced through exercise, just like a muscle.

Therefore, Chen Chen certainly hoped that this ability could be fully developed in terms of speed, strength, and endurance.

At the present, Chen Chen’s utilization of electromagnetic force was mainly in the form of field energy, so he decided he might as well name his current power as — Field.

Chen Chen stretched out a hand and turned his palm flat up.

At once, four poker cards flew up in succession and landed into Chen Chen’s palm one by one.

As he looked at the messy poker cards in his hand, Chen Chen shook his head helplessly. Compared to Andrew in the movie who casually put away an entire deck of scattered cards, his own control was inadequate.

Chen Chen was suddenly struck by another thought. A tin box of chewing gum, as thick as a finger, flew out from his pocket by itself. After that, it opened with a click and a crystal clear pill floated up.

Chen Chen opened his mouth and the pill flew smoothly into his mouth. At the same time, the box containing the pills snapped shut and returned to Chen Chen’s pocket.

He closed his eyes lightly. After around thirty seconds, the corners of his mouth curled up and he gently put out his hand once again.

Suddenly, what was left of the fifty-four poker cards on the table flew up one after another, spun once in mid-air, then dropped lightly into Chen Chen’s hands.

One, two, three…

Ten, twenty…

They moved faster and faster. At first, it was just one card after another. By the end, all the poker cards were simply connected in one long chain, tracing a unified arc in the air before landing into Chen Chen’s hands like birds returning to their nest.

“Phew!”

Chen Chen exhaled loudly and opened his eyes again.

At the moment, the deck of cards was tidily stacked in Chen Chen’s palm. It was a world of difference from the disordered attempt from before.

“As I thought, after taking NZT-48, even my control over ‘Field’ increases by more than ten times…”

As Chen Chen murmured, he spread out both his hands. Instantly, the fifty-four poker cards formed a neat circle that floated and revolved around Chen Chen continuously.

Chen Chen suddenly exerted some force.

There was a flash of white light. The trump card of these fifty-four poker cards abruptly raced out, spinning over a distance of five, six meters, before it slowly drifted to the ground.

Following that, the rest of the cards flew out one after another. The furthest of them reached seven or eight meters and even the nearest ones covered four to five meters.

Chen Chen turned to the metal wall and sent these cards into the wall. They thudded loudly as they hit their mark.

After this, Chen Chen wore a pensive look.

“Little X.”

Chen Chen suddenly spoke and looked at the monitor in the corner, “Send Qian Wenhuan a message — ask him to cut the imported graphene oxide from the research center into the size of playing cards and send it to me.”

“Okay!”

As Little X replied, Chen Chen turned on his laptop and continued extracting crystalline from the USB drive.

After two months of cultivation, Chen Chen felt that his body had recovered to its initial state and could continue to endure the radiation of the crystalline.

One, two, three pieces…

This time, Chen Chen had absorbed twenty-two pieces of crystalline in one go, reserving only 50 kilograms worth of energy within the USB drive.

When the last of the crystalline had been absorbed, Chen Chen wiped away the blood from his nose and stretched himself. His whole body made cracking noises.

Chen Chen could clearly sense that his “Field” had grown stronger…

Therefore, he looked at the poker cards scattered all around and beckoned gently.

Instantly, the poker cards within two meters of him flew up, whirled giddily in the air, and returned to Chen Chen’s hand in a neat curve!

Chen Chen smiled. He shut his eyes matter-of-factly and continued stepping forward.

As he moved forward, his hand was like a vacuum cleaner that constantly sucked in the scattered poker cards, which returned to his palm like sheep returning to their flock.

Right, the first time he had only absorbed nine crystalline fragments and his control over his “Field” had only extended to one meter. This time, having absorbed twenty-two pieces, his range of control over “Field” had increased from one meter to around two meters instantly.

He had just absorbed the crystalline, but already Chen Chen felt that his command over “Field” had become more assured.

With a mental prod from Chen Chen, a poker card flew out with a “whoosh”, hitting the wall ten meters away with a loud “thud”!

“Boss? It’s me, Wenhuan.”

At this point, Qian Wenhuan’s voice came through the electronic lock.

Chen Chen turned toward the door and gestured gently with his right hand. Instantly, the entire deck of cards floated into the air, then fell gently, but amazingly enough, they landed into a tidy stack on the table behind him, not an inch out of place!

After that, Chen Chen kicked the crystalline pieces whose power had been exhausted into a corner. Only then did he snap his fingers to signal Little X to open the door.

The red light on the electronic lock turned green and Qian Wenhuan walked in with a welded iron box.

“Boss, here’s the thing you asked for.”

Qian Wenhuan glanced around curiously and noticed the bloodstains on Chen Chen’s shirt. His expression changed suddenly. “Boss, are you feeling unwell lately?”

“Unwell?”

Chen Chen cracked his neck and said softly with a smile, “I’ve never felt better.”
