Listening to the Cries of All Living Beings
Wei Leyang's expression Distortion for a moment.
Although I had heard Shen Heng mention this before, hearing about it is one thing, but experiencing it firsthand is another.
He couldn't help but complain, "This is so noisy! Shen Heng, how did you put up with it?"
"Focus, habit, and..." Shen Heng glanced at Wei Leyang and continued, "... helplessness."
Wei Leyang didn't say anything, but simply gave Shen Heng a thumbs up.
Everyone nodded silently.
Although they can still tolerate the various sounds surrounding them now, as Shen Heng said before, these sounds used to follow him 24 hours a day!
Le Gu Nan didn't speak; she just stood there listening silently.
Is this the world that Shen Heng has always heard about...?
Seeing that everyone had listened enough, Shen Heng spoke again to remind them:
"Pay attention, we're about to get into your inner thoughts; don't think about things you don't want to say."
No one replied; they simply nodded silently.
Seeing that everyone was ready, Shen Heng began to process the surrounding sounds.
First, the loud noise that had been echoing all around quickly faded away.
Then, the voice, the sound waves, are translated...
There was a moment of silence, then a voice rang out.
"Hmm, is it ready yet?"
Everyone looked at Han Ling, and just as they were about to tell her to wait a little longer, they were slightly taken aback.
Han Ling's eyes widened slightly as she looked up and surveyed her surroundings, clearly puzzled by the voice she had just heard.
"Sister Ling didn't seem to speak just now, is she all better now?" Le Gu Nan's voice rang out with some doubt.
Immediately after hearing the sound in the air, she turned her head and looked around uncomfortably.
"Hmm, looks like it's working! It's like whatever's in your head..." Wei Leyang's voice followed.
Before the sounds in the air had finished, he deliberately interrupted his thoughts, nodding slightly.
"Sure enough, whatever's in my head plays."
"However, the ability to hear someone's thoughts is usually something only villains possess."
"The villain uses this ability to suppress the protagonist, but the protagonist, through his intelligence and wisdom, defeats the villain who can hear his thoughts."
"Is Shen Heng positioned as a villain in this world?"
"..."
"That guy Wei Leyang, um, no, let's gather our thoughts..."
A gentle voice rang out.
Everyone was taken aback at first, then looked at the black-haired youth.
He was looking down, as if nothing had happened, but the voice in the air just now was clearly his.
"Haha, I never knew Shen Heng could make sarcastic remarks like that!" Han Ling looked at Shen Heng as if she had just discovered something, and couldn't help but smile.
Everyone looked at Shen Heng with surprise.
Previously, Shen Heng had always impressed them as calm and rational, and they had almost never heard Shen Heng complain about anything else. They never expected that Shen Heng's mind would be like this.
"That's normal. Humans naturally react to words that involve themselves."
Hearing his own voice ringing in his ears, Shen Heng couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
"Ugh, this useless ability, maybe I should just turn it off."
Upon hearing the sound, Wei Leyang couldn't help but speak:
"No way, isn't this quite interesting!"
"Yes!" Han Ling couldn't help but nod.
"Never mind, never mind, it's not a big deal anyway. I'll just have to be careful with my words and actions..." Shen Heng sighed inwardly.
Of course, his sigh echoed in the air as expected.
"Haha, Shen Heng is really too interesting!" Wei Leyang laughed.
Han Ling nodded in agreement.
Le Gu Nan pursed her lips slightly, and at the same time, her voice rang out in the air.
"I never expected Shen Heng to have this side to him, he's kind of cute... no, you can't describe a guy like that!"
"Cute?" Han Ling couldn't help but smile as she looked at Le Gu Nan. "Gu Nan is cute too!"
Both her own voice and Han Ling's teasing made Le Gu Nan's cheeks flush red.
She lowered her head, trying to stop herself from thinking about anything else.
Seeing this, Han Ling couldn't help but smile, then began to ponder.
"It's quite interesting to know what everyone's thinking, but I have to control myself and not think about my own things. No, I can't keep thinking about it, or I'll be in trouble. Yes, that's it..."
Wei Leyang looked at everyone with some regret, "Sigh, it seems only the captain and I have remained consistent..."
"That Wei Leyang guy..." Shen Heng sighed, then silently repeated to himself, "Be careful what you say, be careful what you say..."
Listening to Shen Heng being so cautious in his words and actions, Han Ling couldn't help but think:
"When Shen Heng speaks, does he usually think through a lot of things in his head and then only say a few carefully considered sentences?"
"If that's the case, then it's too tiring, isn't it? But it does fit Shen Heng's usual persona," Wei Leyang thought to himself.
"No, the topic has come back to me. I need to change the subject. What should I say...?" Shen Heng's thoughts echoed in the air.
Before he could come to a conclusion, Han Ling's voice rang out in the air.
"Hmm, calmly analyzing how to handle the problem, that's very much like Shen Heng."
Seeing Han Ling's knowing look, Wei Leyang nodded in agreement.
"That's right, that's right!"
Watching the scene unfold before him, Le Gu Nan couldn't help but chuckle softly.
"Well..."
Only Shen Heng's powerless sigh remained in the air.
"Alright, you've tried it, let's turn this off now," Wang Hai said, stepping forward.
"Yeah, the captain is definitely reliable. He didn't react at all even when he heard my thoughts."
Thinking too fast, Shen Heng was about to cancel the synchronized playback of his inner voice as the captain had instructed when this sentence rang out.
Previously, since it didn't concern him, Wang Hai could still control the situation.
Upon hearing his own words spoken, Wang Hai couldn't help but respond in his mind.
"No, I didn't expect you to have so many things on your mind."
Everyone was taken aback for a moment, then burst into laughter.
"Ha ha ha ha..."
After canceling the voice message playback, Wang Hai looked at Shen Heng and said:
"So, your Ability Evolution by adding these two new capabilities, right?"
Shen Heng nodded slightly. "Yes, the new abilities are these two aspects, but the existing hearing and sound wave abilities have also been enhanced to some extent."
"And the strength?" Wang Hai then inquired.
"As for strength..." Shen Heng pondered for a moment, "Their overall ability is only at B-Class, and it's impossible for them to reach B-Class individually. They should be at the C-Class- level."
"Several C-Class abilities combined to form a B-Class ability?" Wei Leyang asked from the side.
"Hmm." Shen Heng nodded slightly.
"So, what's your new ability called?" Wang Hai asked Shen Heng.
Upon hearing this, everyone turned to look at Shen Heng.
"Let's call it..."
Shen Heng lowered his eyes slightly.
