Chapter 93: Gift

Chapter 93: Gift

The massive plastic cube continued to morph its shape, as if it were a magical 3D slide, eventually transforming into a gigantic sphere with a base, much like a hot air balloon, hovering above everyone's heads.

Lu shanshan siblings were already in a state of daze.

They had never seen such a cool ability before.

Of course, they were also curious about the abilities of their new companions, but due to their own identities, they hesitated to ask immediately, especially regarding Chen Mu. Lu shanshan still felt a bit timid around him.

In fact, even Tang Jing and He Ying were witnessing Chen Mu using his abilities so ostentatiously for the first time.

"Just as we speculated," Tang Jing smiled.

"Yes, the mass is reduced, but all other physical indicators remain unchanged. The volume remains the same, and the hardness remains the same. In other words, only the density is halved," Chen Mu's voice carried a hint of joy.

He liked Lu shanshan's ability more than anyone else.The roots of this story extend from novell bìn origin.

Currently, it seems that changing the shape of an object is related to its density. With Lu shanshan around, it's like indirectly doubling his own ability.

This is a classic case of 1+1 being greater than 2.

Take the plastic cube in front of them, for example. Chen Mu's original ability would naturally allow him to control it, but clearly not as effortlessly as he can do it now.

To put it in more intuitive terms, the density of stainless steel is about 7.8g/cm, while common PP plastic is about 0.9. Under the same volume, it is eight times more difficult for Chen Mu to manipulate stainless steel compared to plastic.

Lu shanshan's ability to halve the density of an object is truly a godsend for Chen Mu.

...

The "hot air balloon" instantly melted and returned to its original form as a plastic cube.

It was only now that Lu shanshan woke up from her stupor and couldn't help but ask, "What ability is this?"

"Changing the shape of objects," Chen Mu answered casually.

However, Lu shanshan still couldn't shake off her astonishment.

This ability sounded rather ordinary, so why did it look so cool in action? But upon closer thought, it seemed that the exaggerated scene from earlier indeed fell under the category of "changing the shape of objects." It's just that the user was too powerful.

While Lu shanshan was still in shock, Chen Mu asked, "How many times a day can you perform this level of release?"

"This is already my limit. Doing it more would give me a headache."

"You haven't deliberately practiced before?" Chen Mu asked and felt a bit greedy afterward. He continued, "Your ability should be very useful for transporting supplies. Why don't you use it frequently?"

Zhao Xiaoyan, who loved cats the most, gave it a name - Xiao Huang (Little Yellow).

Among the ten orange cats, about eight were named Xiao Huang.

However, others didn't mind and simply went along with Zhao Xiaoyan, calling it Xiao Huang as well.

But one day, Xiao Huang caused quite a stir.

This seemingly hyperactive little cat somehow brought a dead mouse pup and placed it at the entrance of the storage room.

It was uncertain whether such a small cat had hunting abilities, so the prey was likely caught by an older cat.

Due to this incident, everyone suddenly realized that this cat probably kept coming here because of someone present.

Cats leaving dead mice by their human's pillows were common cases, apparently showing that the cat didn't trust their human's hunting abilities and was afraid they might starve.

From the current situation, it is possible that someone in the team had previously fed the cat, and it caught the scent, which made it single-mindedly want to come inside. However, given that humans have shrunk to this extent, it's doubtful whether their scent can travel that far.

"What should we do now?"

After finishing lunch, the sixteen people gathered around the oval-shaped table that Chen Mu had remade, holding an emergency meeting.

Everyone was touched by Xiao Huang's gift, but the problem was that they couldn't accept such a present.

Although rats could be considered as food and roasting their meat on an iron plate probably wouldn't taste bad, a pup is still a massive object for humans. Even if they managed to bring it inside, it would be impossible to finish eating it in a short time, and it would eventually rot and stink.

Having a pile of rotten meat in the room was clearly not a good idea.

However, ignoring it and leaving it at the door wasn't an option either because that would quickly attract a bunch of ants and other insects, creating even more trouble.

"Maybe I can try dragging it away and placing it farther from here. That should solve the problem, right?" Wei Dalei, who was always ready to take on tasks requiring physical strength, naturally volunteered when everyone seemed at a loss.
