Prodigal System in the Flourishing City-Chapter 1422 - 1424: Sound
As Lu Hongbin and the others felt a tugging sensation from front to back, like flying kites.
"Dong!"
"Dong!"
"Dong!"
A slow yet powerful sound, seemingly ethereal and dreamlike, echoed across the entire Water Blue Star!
Yes! Across the entire Water Blue Star!
On the African grasslands.
Lions were crouching, eyes fixed on their prey, ready to strike at any moment!
The herd of antelopes occasionally lifted their heads in vigilance, yet failed to spot the lions.
Beside them, a newborn lamb was struggling to stand.
The speed was astonishing, full of vitality!
And at that moment.
The lions moved!
They swiftly sprang forward!
The food was right before them!
The antelopes were thrown into chaos, the lead ram quickly began directing!
But!
"Dong!"
A sound resonated from the soul!
Instantly, both lions and antelopes froze in place, motionless!
"Dong!"
"Dong!"
Every ten seconds, the sound repeated thrice.
During this period, both antelopes and lions remained immobile, listening attentively.
After the third sound, silence prevailed!
Everything seemed as though nothing had ever happened.
The lions quickly regained composure and sprinted forward again!
The antelopes began to flee.
But no one noticed, or perhaps no sheep noticed, that the newborn lamb, which had a high chance of becoming lion food, was at the forefront, charging tirelessly!
...
Asia.
On the top of a high mountain.
Three or four small eagles were chirping for food!
But the eagle mother watched indifferently, as if waiting for something!
Finally, hunger unleashed the brutality hidden within the eagles!
They began to fight one another!
Blood splattered, flesh torn!
The eagle mother watched it all without a hint of pity, even encouraging the strong!
This was the survival law of eagles, only the strong deserve to live!
The strong finally appeared, the toughest eagle viciously pushed the weakest eagle off the tall cliff.
The eagle mother watched apathetically, without any emotional shift.
The weak eagle plummeted down in a cry of despair!
Awaiting it seemed only a fate of smashed flesh!
"Dong!"
The sound pulsed, arriving!
The fighting eagles stopped.
The eagle mother instinctively spread her wings, frozen on the spot!
Only the falling eagle continued its uncontrollable descent!
Its eyes filled with blood silk, survival instinct drove it to flail its fragile wings!
The massive impact shattered its wings immediately!
"Dong!"
The second sound arose.
The plummeting eagle, amidst its lamentation, mustered to flap its wings again!
"Dong!"
The third sound echoed.
Originally broken, the wings, fueled by the will to survive, achieved blood supply, healed, and became sturdy!
It flew up!
From the valley to the mountain peak, it soared up, ascended to its sky.
The recovered eagle mother, along with the still fighting eagles, stared blankly at its flight, filled with bewilderment.
It bore no sentiments, flying high, an eagle dominating the sky!
...
Over the sea.
The calm and unbroken sea surface.
Seagulls kept soaring!
A pod of whales surfaced to breathe, majestic beyond compare!
"Dong!"
The sound arrived!
The whales’ distinct loud calls ceased!
"Dong!"
"Dong!"
The sound ended.
The whales erupted with a stronger sound than before.
The sound seemed enriched with a unique flavor!
...
Magic City.
Maternity hospital.
"Can’t do it! Massive bleeding! Ask the family whether to save the mother or the baby!" The doctor anxiously said while wiping his sweat with the help of the nurse.
"Yes!" Another young nurse quickly ran out.
On the bed, the pregnant woman groaned in pain.
And then.
"Dong!"
The sound arrived.
Everyone was stunned.
However, unlike the animals, they didn’t halt their actions.
Instead, they shook their heads and continued working to heal and save lives!
After three sounds.
The nurse returned with the family’s decision: "Doctor, they said to save the mother!"
"No need." The doctor seemed to tell the nurse, as well as himself, in a tone full of shock: "Both can be saved!"
"Ah?!" The young nurse was dumbfounded, hastily asked: "What happened?!"
"The massive bleeding stopped, everything’s normal! A smooth delivery!" The doctor said, holding the newborn baby, stupefied.
He had never encountered such a situation.
Massive bleeding actually self-healed?!
What is going on?!
...
Imperial City.
The Martial Arts Hall founded by Lu Xiaobu.
The hall master, a Half-step Master, was instructing students: "Stand firm! Don’t shake your hands!"
Initially, he resisted this job!
But as he became more involved with it, listening to the students calling him teacher daily, especially on Father’s Day, when he suddenly received a gift from a student!
At that moment, he burst into tears!
A Half-step Master cried!
From that instant!
He suddenly fell in love with this job.
No particular reason, just enjoying the feeling of teaching and nurturing.
Watching them succeed, grow, was like witnessing his deceased son’s growth, filled with an old father’s solace!
Some students were disobedient, some were mischievous, but isn’t that quite normal!
While pondering these, he quietly observed the sweating kids.
And then.
"Dong! Dong! Dong!"
The sound came!
He froze on the spot!
It wasn’t that he couldn’t move, but he didn’t know how to move!
What is this sound?!
Why did it appear in the mind!?
And! What’s this feeling!?
As if, a door has been opened?!
Oh my God!
Could this be the feeling of advancing to Grandmaster?!
...
America.
Sea Eagle Headquarters.
"Eagle King, this is the latest list of suspected superpowered individuals." A red-haired woman bowed and handed over a list.
If observed closely, her hands were trembling incessantly.
"Hmm." The Eagle King’s rasping voice that seemed inhuman was heard: "Have them all tested!"
As they spoke, it seemed accompanied by a clashing metal sound.
Like the sound of shackles in prison clashing.
The mix of these sounds filled one’s heart with terror.
"Yes!"
The red-haired woman nodded, inwardly relieved.
And then.
"Dong! Dong! Dong!"
The sound arrived!
The red-haired woman heard it and froze!
The Eagle King heard it!
Black mist, erupted!
Instantly, the black mist surged on, and the red-haired woman disappeared from the world.
"Ah! What happened?!"
The Eagle King clutched his head fiercely, letting out a hoarse roar!
That black mist wasn’t his intent!
Why did that happen!
