Destroying the apocalypse from infancy

"Black hole-level digestion? He's unlocked a whole new talent?"

Yu Xiu was slightly taken aback, somewhat surprised by this.

He originally thought that the new talent would only be unlocked after entering the next stage of growth.

But now it seems that this is far from the case.

After entering the embryonic stage, any action Yu Xiu takes that increases his growth rate can unlock corresponding powerful talents!

Yu Xiu's breathing suddenly became more rapid.

As he got up and followed the others out of the restaurant, he focused his attention on his new talent.

Detailed information then unfolds immediately.

[Black Hole-Level Digestion: Your digestive system will transform into a cosmic black hole, significantly increasing your food digestion speed and allowing you to grow faster.]

[Advanced Path: The more you eat, the faster you grow! After completing ten low-quality meals, you can upgrade your talent.]

"Increased digestion speed...leading to increased growth...hiss!"

Yu Xiu's eyes lit up; he immediately realized the importance of this talent.

His current growth rate is less than one percent, and it's unknown how long it will take before he enters infancy.

But with black hole-level digestion, the time will obviously be shortened considerably.

"It seems we need to find a way to upgrade and advance the black hole-level digestion as soon as possible, but what exactly constitutes low-quality food?"

Yu Xiu frowned.

Even a food of the Boston lobster caliber is considered inferior food.

Finding something to satisfy his low-quality diet was clearly not an easy task.

Fortunately, Yu Xiu has plenty of time and can slowly search for it later.

Just as he was pondering this, he suddenly felt a terrifying suction force coming from within his body.

It felt as if a vortex had appeared in my lower abdomen, slowly and silently rotating.

At the same time, Yu Xiu's feeling of fullness began to disappear rapidly.

He had eaten quite a lot, but now he felt completely empty inside.

Yu Xiu had no doubt that if he went back now, he could definitely eat at the buffet for another three hours.

Unfortunately, he had already left the restaurant, and I would have to pay again when I went back.

"Maybe next time. Anyway, Old Zhou still owes me breakfast, I have to rip him off tomorrow!"

Yu Xiu was certain that his appetite was now much greater than before.

But he didn't know exactly how much bigger it was.

"Hopefully, Lao Zhou's wallet can hold up."

With these thoughts in mind, Yu Xiu stepped into the elevator.

When everyone arrived outside the building where the restaurant was located, it was already quite dark outside.

The streetlights on both sides of the road were already lit up, and the high-rise buildings were flashing blue and purple neon lights, which looked quite illusory from a distance.

Cars sped past, and the square was full of pedestrians.

This is the capital, the largest city in Dongxia.

Prosperity is the dominant theme here.

"Should we go for a second round? There's a pretty good karaoke bar nearby."

Ma Ping asked the crowd with a grin.

He planned to strike while the iron was hot and let Yu Xiu and the other students get to know each other better.

Zhou Hua and Liu Jianyang naturally had no objection to this and immediately expressed their agreement.

However, the female students had some concerns about this.

"Maybe we should just forget about it. I heard that Qingyun District is a bit unsafe lately. Our counselor even sent a message in the class group at noon today, telling us to try to stay on campus as little as possible."

Tian Xiaoxiao stepped forward and said somewhat shyly.

As soon as she said this, the other three junior girls all nodded in agreement.

Seeing this, Ma Ping didn't insist, and took out his phone to say:

"Okay, let's take a taxi back to school and go to karaoke next time."

Although he said that, he actually didn't quite agree with it.

Ma Ping knew what Tian Xiaoxiao meant by "unsafe." There had been several missing persons cases in Qingyun District, where the Polytechnic University is located, and these cases had been reported on television several times.

But in a society where surveillance cameras are everywhere, he felt that the case would be solved in the blink of an eye, so there was nothing to worry about.

However, considering that girls are generally timid and are not yet familiar with the surroundings since they have just arrived in the capital, Ma Ping could understand.

And so, the group hailed two taxis and quickly arrived at the school.

After waving goodbye downstairs at the dormitory building, Yu Xiu and the others returned to room 502.

As soon as he entered, Ma Ping couldn't wait to boast:

"What do you mean, guys?"

"Absolutely no doubt, from now on you're my godfather!"

Zhou Hua quickly pounced on Ma Ping, saying with a look of rapture:

"I think I'm in love. Come on, Godfather, let's give each other a kiss first."

"Get out!"

Ma Ping's face darkened, and he pushed Zhou Hua onto the bed.

"Damn it, you've given me goosebumps."

Liu Jianyang, who was standing next to him, suddenly shivered and looked at Zhou Hua with disgust.

"Old Zhou, you should wait a bit. Are you sure she'd be interested in you? I'm already in a real relationship. On the way back, I've almost decided on a name for our child."

Liu Jianyang raised an eyebrow and said smugly.

"You don't know anything. Fat guys are all potential stocks. They're only interested in my potential. You, who have no potential, shouldn't be daydreaming."

Zhou Hua stood up and retorted, then turned to look at Yu Xiu.

"Old Yu, how's your chat with Tian Xiaoxiao going?"

"Well……"

Yu Xiu was watching the show when the topic suddenly turned to him.

He answered instinctively:

"It's just so-so, nothing special."

"Speaking of which, Lao Yu, you need to pay more attention."

Ma Ping rubbed his chin and said, "A girl like Tian Xiaoxiao is probably quite assertive. Winning her over won't be that easy."

"You don't understand. Based on my observation, strong-willed girls tend to like sickly, delicate men."

Liu Jianyang adjusted his glasses, his expression serious as he put his arm around Yu Xiu's shoulder and said:

"It's obvious that our Brother Xu is the type that Tian Xiaoxiao likes."

"You're the one who's sickly!"

Yu Xiu tackled Liu Jianyang, pinning him down, ready to show him who the real Brother Xu was.

Upon seeing this, Zhou Hua immediately joined the battle.

Only after Liu Jianyang begged for mercy did the two finally let him go.

Urged on by Ma Ping, the three of them quickly washed up, then turned on their computers and logged into the game, ready to conquer the canyon.

But before long, the daily routine of winning one round and then logging off came.

By the time everyone had climbed into bed, it was already one in the morning.

It's natural that boys in the dorms wouldn't fall asleep so quickly.

After the lights were turned off, a series of casual conversations began.

I don't know who started it, but the topic suddenly shifted to what we planned to do after graduation.

"I'll probably travel for a few months first, and then when I'm tired of traveling, I'll go work at my dad's company," Ma Ping said softly, his hands behind his head.

"I really envy you, Lao Ma. I guess I'll have to go back to my hometown. It seems like my family is trying to use their connections to get me a job at a state-owned enterprise."

Zhou Hua sighed.

He didn't really want to work for a state-owned enterprise; he preferred to become a food blogger and work in social media.

Unfortunately, in the eyes of most parents, a stable job is always better.

"Going to a state-owned enterprise is not bad either. You can always resign after your self-media business takes off."

Liu Jianyang said with a grin, then turned to look at Yu Xiu on the opposite bed.

"I won't mention it; I'll have to go to graduate school then. What about you, Lao Yu? What are you planning to do?"

"Me? I don't know either."

Looking at the dark ceiling, Yu Xiu suddenly felt a little lost.

His family wasn't as wealthy as Ma Ping's, nor did he have the special relationship that Zhou Hua had.

Yu Xiu came from a very ordinary family.

His father used to work in a coal mine, but later contracted pneumoconiosis and had to retire early at the age of fifty. His mother, on the other hand, has always been a full-time homemaker, occasionally making some handmade insoles to earn money for daily groceries.

According to Yu Xiu's original plan, he should have signed with a company during the fall recruitment season and then worked step by step to save money.

When I'm old enough, I'll go on a blind date and find a decent partner, hoping to give my parents a grandchild soon so they won't have to worry about me every day.

But the situation is different now.

Yu Xiu had only been in the embryonic stage for a few days, but the changes in his body were already quite exaggerated.

There are still seven or eight months until graduation.

What amazing transformation will he undergo by then?

Perhaps they could all be called Superman?

Having mastered power far exceeding that of ordinary people, is there any need to live an ordinary life where the end is predictable?

Unable to figure it out for a moment, Yu Xiu could only blurt out:

"We'll see when the time comes; graduation is still a long way off."

"That's true, it's getting late, everyone should go to sleep."

Ma Ping glanced at the time on his phone and decisively ended the slightly melancholic topic.

In the dark dormitory, soft snoring soon filled the air.

Yu Xiu didn't sleep for the time being, but instead opened the personal information in front of his pupils.

Looking at his now-immortal-level physique after acquiring the talent, he secretly estimated:

"After sunbathing for more than three hours in the afternoon, I completed a highly efficient energy absorption. At this rate, my talent should be upgraded within three or four days."

Looks like I'll be spending most of my time on the playground from now on, which is a good opportunity to boost my growth through exercise.

Yu Xiu couldn't help but feel excited about his upgraded talent, and then he slowly closed his eyes.

A moment later, he had quietly drifted off to sleep.

Silent all night.

Yu Xiu didn't wake up from bed until after nine o'clock the next morning.

But as soon as he opened his eyes, before he was fully conscious, a prompt flashed before his pupils.

[You've had a low-quality sleep session, and your body and mind have had adequate rest and recovery, resulting in a slight increase in growth...]

Current growth rate: 0.009%...

[Unlocked basic talent: Superhuman perception]
