Humans Shrunk 100 Times

Chapter 165: Space

"Then both of you, please tell me your names...?"

"I'm Li Bo."

Among the two, the one pointed at by Chen Mu quickly responded.

"I also discovered my superpower on the first day, but... it's a bit gross," the boy named Li Bo seemed a little embarrassed.

"It's okay, go ahead and tell us," Chen Mu encouraged.

After going through various bizarre abilities, Chen Mu felt that his tolerance had increased significantly.

"My saliva can be used as glue, and it works quite well," Li Bo said.

Chen Mu thought there was nothing disgusting about that. But he knew that once Li Bo got to know Xue Xu, he would realize what it truly meant to be outclassed.

Then he understood, "So, the things under the door crack were glued together with your saliva?"

Chen Mu subconsciously wiped his palm on his pants, thinking about the hole he had just made with his hand.

"Yes, that's right," Li Bo nodded. "At first, I accidentally spat on the ground, and Yu Yuan stepped on it. As a result, his shoe got stuck to the floor, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't take it off. In the end, he had to tear off a piece of the rubber sole to free the shoe."

"It's even more effective than 502 glue!" Yu Yuan chimed in, raising his foot to show the missing piece from the sole.

"But with so much material in the door crack, is your saliva enough?" He Ying asked.

"At first, it wasn't enough. Those things were the result of our two weeks of work. But I found that the farther we went, the more saliva I produced, and the better the adhesive effect became. There were two large pieces of wood, and I just spat on them, and they stuck together as if they were grown that way. No matter how hard we tried, we couldn't separate them," Li Bo explained.

Chen Mu understood that this was the result of his ability evolving, but it wasn't necessary to talk to him too much about it at the moment.

Chen Mu also had a certain degree of adhesive ability in himself. If it was the same type of material, he might even be better than Li Bo. However, if what Li Bo said was true and he could efficiently glue any two materials together, it was indeed a very good superpower.

"This ability is not bad," He Ying smiled at Chen Mu, seemingly thinking of this issue as well.

"Yeah," Chen Mu nodded without confirming or denying it, then turned to the last person, "And what about you?"

"I'm Zhou Xuliang."

The remaining boy looked somewhat honest, just not as tall as Qian Fei.

"My superpower is the ability to possess a space to store things," he said.

"Hmm?" Chen Mu instantly became interested.

It sounded quite high-end.

A storage ring?

A cosmic bracelet?

Yu Yuan hurriedly explained, "Senior, have you seen fantasy novels? It's like those portable, other-dimensional storage spaces. Very powerful!"

This guy seemed afraid that his companions wouldn't be acknowledged and was desperately promoting his ability.

Chen Mu was somewhat surprised.

It seemed that this guy named Zhou Xuliang was probably the most formidable among the three.

However, from his appearance, he had no trace of arrogance or self-confidence; instead, he appeared rather submissive.

A thought flashed in Chen Mu's mind, and he asked, "This ability should have some limitations, right?"

"Well..." Zhou Xuliang seemed a little embarrassed. "Senior, your insight is keen indeed. The storage space is real, but its capacity is quite limited. I estimate it's about 1 cubic centimeter."

"1 cubic centimeter?"

Chen Mu calculated; that didn't sound too bad. It could fit two or three people if he squeezed them in.

It was a pity they didn't have firearms or such things; otherwise, this guy could definitely be the protagonist of a web novel.

However, being able to store some sticks and knives was already quite good. If he could carry a stool with him, he would undoubtedly become an influential figure.

If that was the case, this ability was actually quite good.

"And there's one more thing."

Zhou Xuliang looked helpless and a bit disappointed as he said, "This storage space only works when I'm conscious..."

Chen Mu was taken aback for a moment, then realized, "In other words, when you're asleep..."

"Yes," Zhou Xuliang nodded. "Once I fall asleep or get knocked unconscious, the things inside the space will automatically fall out."

Chen Mu sighed.

This limitation indeed lowers the prestige of this superpower significantly. In a sense, it's like being a porter.

At this point, Chen Mu finally had a rough understanding of the abilities of the three individuals, which was quite close to his initial guesses.

These three abilities all leaned towards support and currently lacked significant combat capabilities. No wonder they didn't dare to venture outside.

"Senior, so what do you think about the two of them...?" Yu Yuan sneakily observed Chen Mu's expression. From the situation just now, it was evident that this senior was the one with the final say.

Chen Mu pretended to ponder for a moment and then smiled faintly, "Welcome to join Qiming."

"Yeah!" The three exaggeratedly embraced each other.

Initially, Chen Mu thought they were making a big deal out of it, but upon reflection, if he were one of them and had experienced this kind of life for two months, his mentality would indeed undergo a change.

"By the way, why do you sleep in that cigarette case?" He Ying asked with a playful smile.

Yu Yuan happily replied, "Mainly for safety. As long as we close the lid and poke a few small holes, it becomes a worry-free pillow. And, Senior, you have no idea how comfortable it is to sleep on the cigarettes. It's soft, and we can sleep horizontally, vertically, lying down, or even face down. It's comfortable from all angles, even better than a Simmons mattress."

Hearing him say that, He Ying also started to yearn for it a little.

Chen Mu chuckled, "But you shouldn't be sleeping until noon, right?"

"Is it noon already?"

Yu Yuan scratched his head apologetically and said, "We only know day and night; we have no idea about the specific time."

The door crack was blocked, and the only window in this office faced north, making it impossible to see the position of the sun. Not everyone could calculate the time like Tang Jing.

"And, although we don't need to eat, we still try not to consume too much. So when there's nothing to do, we just lie down and sleep," Yu Yuan explained.

Chen Mu nodded in understanding and then asked, "Do you know where the lubricating oil is?"

"Of course, a few days ago when we had nothing to do, we wandered around the rooms. Senior, which type of lubricating oil do you need? D5? 8300?"

"You know about lubricating oil too?"

"Hehe."

Yu Yuan looked somewhat proud and said, "After all, I'm the most favored disciple of Teacher Wan. We've done model aircraft together, repaired watches, and even improved running shoes for the school athletes. But in the end, I shook my hand and accidentally cut a shoe, which caused Teacher Wan to buy a new pair for the owner."

"This..." Chen Mu glanced at He Ying.

He saw the victim looking quite conflicted.
