Chapter 1: A New Era
"And God said there would be light, and there was light......
Standing in the middle of the Peace Square, the Illuminati began their daily morning chant......
The people around the square clasped their hands together and chanted in unison reverently and solemnly.
No one has ever been bored or rejected by this boring gathering every morning. The world is full of darkness, and people want to believe that there really will be gods who bring light.
..............................
Jingle Bell ......
"Stand up, good morning, teacher......"
"Good morning, please sit down. Today, the teacher of your source force department has something to do temporarily, so I changed the course to a history class in the cultural department in the morning. Now let's start the lesson......"
"The year 2800 A.D. was the darkest year in human history......
The earth's population has exceeded 20 billion, and in order to survive, human beings use technology to endlessly squeeze this land on which they depend.
No one knows the end of science, only that it is constantly approaching omnipotence. Humans love imagination, but science has always been beyond imagination.
So, just as humans hate parasites, the overwhelmed Earth began its plan of removal.
That year, volcanoes, tsunamis, earthquakes, floods, ...... All life-destroying disasters continue one after another. Even more terrifying is the global outbreak of the virus, a new type of virus that has never appeared on Earth before.
There is no antidote, but it is only fatal to humans, like the sickle of death harvesting the most hated creatures on the earth. What's even more terrifying is that the virus has become a nightmare for mankind, and at the same time it has become an evolutionary agent for all other species......
Disasters have destroyed cities and put an end to omnipotent science. The products of human science and technology are like scrap metal and rotten iron, and many scientific theories run counter to reality.
The continuous evolution and strength of other species gradually dominated the living space after the disaster. Humans have been reduced from predators at the top of the food chain to food in their mouths. Earth has begun a new era, for which humanity has paid a price of nearly 19.5 billion deaths and the origin of civilization almost from scratch.
Later human beings called the age of science and technology before 2800, the era of Guiyuan after 2800, and the year 01 of the first year of the era after 2801.
In the natural selection with nature and other species, humanity has spent two long centuries. Humanity survived and continued with great difficulty......"
This is the opening remark of every history lesson that a history teacher takes. Then began the recitation of a lonely person......
History class, a course that almost everyone thinks is dispensable. In less than half an hour, many people in the classroom had begun to fall asleep......
But one student listened very carefully and took notes carefully.
"Ye Qianchen, why don't you sleep......"
On the podium, the white-haired old man looked curiously at the student who never slept in his class, and couldn't take his eyes off it.
"Report to the teacher, history can make me see the world as it is, and I heard that the world in the age of science and technology is very exciting......"
Ye Qianchen replied seriously.
"Oh, that's an interesting answer......
Looking at the child in front of him, who was only fourteen or fifteen years old, the old man thoughtfully, withdrew his gaze, and continued to recite by himself......
So, two awake and dozens of asleep people, spent each morning of the day.
.............................................
"I said Qianchen, I can listen so seriously in history class, I really convince you. ”
The fat boy in the cafeteria with a mouth full of oil was gnawing on chicken legs while chattering vaguely at Ye Qianchen.
"If you pay the tuition at home, you can't use it to study and sleep, and besides, my family doesn't have as much money as your family. ”
Ye Qianchen looked at the vegetarian dishes in his lunch box and the fat in Zhu Jiushi's lunch box and sighed.
Hearing Ye Qianchen say this, Zhu Jiushi hurriedly divided half of the fat in the lunch box.
"How can you say that we are also at the same table as Fa Xiaojia, a good friend of childhood sweethearts, if I have a mouthful of meat for Zhu Fat, there will be a mouthful of meat for you Ye Qianchen, isn't it?"
Zhu Jiuyi's eyes were white......
"I heard that the spiritual source will be tested tomorrow, and in the past, it was only tested a week before the college entrance examination, why did you ...... a month earlier this year?"
I really didn't want to listen to Zhu Jiushi's nonsense, so Ye Qianchen had to change the topic.
"It's going to be measured, it's going to be tested sooner or later anyway......"
Zhu Jiu Shi pursed his lips indifferently, and stared at the lap of the girl sitting at the opposite table with a pair of narrowed eyes, which was extremely obscene.
..........................................
Compared with the cultural department, everyone's attitude towards the source of the department is completely different. Because the source force is a powerful spokesperson for this era, and it is the ultimate force for the survival and continuation of human beings.
"Source Force – the most mysterious energy in the universe. The energy that must be mastered for the survival, continuation, and evolution of human beings......"
The heroic and upright teacher Xiong stood on the school martial arts field and talked about it.
"In more than a month, you will have to take the college entrance examination. Among the people present, some can only be admitted to the Cultural University, and the road to the strong ends here. Similarly, some people will be admitted to Yuanli University and then embark on the road of being strong......
However, this must be based on the premise that you are able to awaken Zero. If you can't awaken the zero source, you can't cultivate the source power, no matter how good you are in the exam, everything is in vain, and you can only be admitted to an ordinary cultural university. But what is needed in this era is the strong, and the continuation and evolution of mankind also needs the strong. All the weak serve the strong and obey the strong......
Tomorrow will be a turning point in your fate. The testing team composed of the three source universities in the Jianghuai base: Qing'an Source University, Shenyue Source Power University, and Jianghuai Source Power University, has rushed to Xiyue Middle School this afternoon, and they will test Zero Source for you tomorrow morning.
After the test, students with zero sources, if they awaken zero sources in the next month, they will be directly admitted to these three source power universities according to the strength and special degree of their awakened zero source attributes. Those who can't wake up can be admitted as long as they pass the cultural course of the college entrance examination......
Then you have to adjust your state well, there will be no classes in the afternoon, and you will be free to move around......"
Glancing at the somewhat restless students on the field, I thought that tomorrow the identities of this group of children will be very different, and it is an insurmountable gap. Teacher Xiong sighed and walked out of the school martial arts field.
.............................................
"Students, our best days will end tomorrow. There are 10 classes in the third year of Xiyue Middle School, and it is fate to be able to be divided into class 301. After today, everyone is going to see you again!
A few will become the protagonists of this era, while the majority will be ordinary and extinct to all beings. I suggest that our class have a party tonight, each leave their contact information, who will have a future in the future, let's show off, then who and I were still classmates back then, and it was not in vain classmates, what do you think?"
It was Xiao He, the squad leader of class 301, who spoke, and everyone agreed with his opinion.
In the end, everyone discussed for an afternoon, and finally unified their ideas, and set the meeting place at the food stall opposite the school gate, at 8 o'clock in the evening, and we will not see you......
