Chapter 139: Listening
Regarding the bathroom's planning, after confirming the location and some general principles with the others, Tang Jing was ready to go back and design the specific dimensions and style.
As for the elevator, it was relatively more complicated.
After Lu Liangliang and his sister came over, the remaining people didn't feel like continuing their work and decided to join them at the entrance.
At the entrance, several people looked up at the observatory above.
The utilization of the slide was very high, and now almost no one used the stairs to come down, but going up was a problem.
"My idea is to build two elevators on the left and right sides, connect them in the middle above with a pulley, add counterweights below the two platforms, and when it's in operation, Lu Liangliang will be above, and Lu Shanshan will be below. By changing the weight of the counterweight, we can achieve upward and downward movement on both sides," Tang Jing explained while gesturing the position of the elevator with her hand.
"That sounds achievable," Lu Liangliang observed.
Tang Jing placed her hand behind her back and looked up at the location of the observatory, saying, "The principle is not difficult, but in actual operation, there are some issues that need to be resolved. For example, you and Lu Shanshan's abilities can't control the degree of weight reduction or increase, so we need to add multiple counterweights to achieve the effect of the elevator."
Contrary to Lu Shanshan, Lu Liangliang's ability was to increase the mass of objects.
However, this increase was not arbitrary; he could only double the mass of an object.
For instance, a 1-gram object could become 2 grams after Lu Liangliang's ability was applied, but it couldn't be 2.1 or 1.9 grams.
And what limited his ability was also the mass of the object.
If their ability's upper limit was a 10-gram object, then using their ability on a 10.1-gram object would have no effect.
This was a manifestation of the growth limit of their abilities, and another manifestation was speed.
Initially, it took Lu Shanshan about 1 minute to reduce the weight of a weapon for Chen Mu, but now, with Tang Jing's guidance and Chen Mu sharing insights, she could already do it within 10 seconds after just a few days.
The two siblings now have different upper limits to their abilities, and Lu Shanshan is noticeably stronger than her brother, which seems quite reasonable since reducing weight appears to be easier than increasing it.
After joining Qi Ming's group, the abilities of Lu's siblings have significantly improved, especially for Lu Shanshan, who was already actively interested in this aspect. Now, with someone guiding and discussing with her, she's in her element.
Tang Jing is very knowledgeable about their abilities, so when conceptualizing the elevator, she took them into consideration from the beginning.
"So, in the future, Lu Shanshan and Lu Liangliang will be specialized elevator operators?" Du Jiajia laughed.
Sun Yuan was considered an elder member of the Qi Ming group, but his habit of flattery remained unchanged. Even when facing later members like Lu Shanshan and others, he didn't show any sense of being a senior.
At first, Sun Yuan was most afraid of Chen Mu, especially since the scene where he easily defeated He Ying was deeply imprinted in his mind. However, as time went on, he gradually discovered that the person he really couldn't provoke in the team was Tang Jing.
Tang Senior always had a smiley and friendly demeanor, but for some reason, Sun Yuan always ended up getting the short end of the stick around her.
Although Tang Jing never forced him to do anything, in the end, he would obediently follow her instructions and willingly do things he really didn't want to do.
In Sun Yuan's eyes, this senior was like a witch, using him as a guinea pig, yet he felt grateful.
However, Tang Jing's charm was that she could truly help others' abilities progress by leaps and bounds.
Sun Yuan didn't have many ambitions, and since he learned that his ability was enhanced hearing, he had even fewer ideas about it.
Everyone wishes to have powerful abilities, to control the winds and rains, move mountains, and raise oceans with a mere lift of their hand.
But what can enhanced hearing do?
Listen until it kills people?
At most, it could help him sense danger earlier and escape in advance, but ultimately, it didn't grant him the power to confront enemies head-on.
But this somewhat matched his original character, so Sun Yuan didn't complain.
However, his worldview completely changed after getting to know Tang Jing.
When Tang Senior saw him, the first formal thing she said was, "Have you ever thought that in the future, you might hear the sound of a stranger's blood flowing in their veins on the other side of the Earth?"
