chapter 1
Si Nian observed his surroundings blankly.
It's a strange place, the sky is a reddish color, and the ground is full of broken electronics, broken metal, and unidentified objects that are unrecognizable......
There was a dull* smell in the air.
It's a garbage dump, a huge garbage dump with no edge in sight.
After observing for a while, Si Nian came to such a conclusion.
Faced with the bizarre event of being on a spacious and bright road one second, but inexplicably coming to a strange garbage dump the next second, Si Nian still maintained his original expression. But if you look closely enough, you can see his doubts in his tense body and confused eyes.
Si Nian is not as light as he appears on his face.
Obviously, he was walking on the wide and flat golden avenue one second, but the next second he came to this strange and strange land, Si Nian said that he was actually not calm.
However, Si Nian has had fewer expressions than others since he was a child, and when other children have learned to smile to please adults, and when Tong Guò cries to express dissatisfaction, Si Nian always looks at the world quietly with his big round black eyes.
Si Nian's mother was worried about what was wrong with the child, but after going to the hospital for an examination, she found that the child was in good health and could not find anything wrong at all. Later, Si Nian was not only not stupid, but also showed that he had to be smarter than children of the same age, and the Si family completely gave up on paying attention to this problem.
Si Nian stood for a while, but he couldn't sort out the chaotic thoughts in his mind. After a while, he seemed to suddenly remember something, and spread out his right hand. There, a dark stone lay quietly in the palm of his hand.
Si Nian remembered that the moment before crossing here, he happened to catch the stone flying diagonally in front of him.
From the outside, this is an extremely ordinary black stone, if there is anything special, that is, it is evenly black.
For a moment, Si Nian was even thinking about whether he had "wronged" this stone.
Because this stone was very fast when it flew over, even if Si Nian lost his strength when he caught it, he was still cut by the water chestnut on the stone. At this moment, a little bit of bright red blood stained the pure black stone, adding a bit of weirdness to the stone.
The black stone is warm to the touch, if it weren't for the fact that the qiē experience was too weird, Si Nian might have liked such a stone.
He was about to put the stone away and study his surroundings, but found that the stone in his hand was starting to heat up. The higher and higher temperatures make the stone a little hot, and it can no longer be described as "warm".
Just as he was about to throw away the stone, a mechanical voice sounded in his head.
"A carbon-based organism was detected, the conditions were met, and the gene was locked...... The lock is completed and the contract is established. ”
"Survival mode is on!"
Si Nian only felt in a trance, and then, a lot of unfamiliar information was suddenly forced into his mind.
When he came back to his senses completely, the face of the dead man, who had remained unchanged all year round, finally showed an expression that seemed to be shocked. Of course, this kind of expression is really only a "touch", and I am afraid that only people who are particularly familiar with it may be able to detect it.
The stone in Si Nian's hand is actually a carrier of an unknown "contract", which will release tasks from time to time, and there will be certain points and rewards for completing the task, and there will be corresponding punishments for failing to complete it.
However, what shocked him the most was not these, but that he found that he had been teleported to an unknown star field because of this "system", and in his current situation, he could not return to the world he was familiar with!
Si Nian was flustered for a moment, but he forced himself to calm down.
Taking a deep breath, Si began to sort out the relevant information that had been forced into his head by the "system".
The system doesn't give many hints, and it is mainly divided into two parts.
The first is a brief introduction to the environment. Si Nian's current location is called the Junk Star, and the environment here is harsh and not suitable for human life at all. Terrible radiation, foul air, scarce food...... If it weren't for the fact that he was still in the "novice protection period", he simply didn't know how he should live.
But that doesn't mean there's no one on the planet. On the contrary, the people who came to the garbage star for various reasons such as exile, refuge, and abandonment have never been stopped. With limited resources and an "over-exuberant" human being, Si Nian can already imagine how difficult life will be in the future.
The second is the introduction of the "interstellar contract". It is this contract that brings Si Nian here, and the purpose of this is not directly stated, but it only tells Si Nian that it will let Si Nian complete the content of the contract in the form of a task. These tasks are difficult and easy, and there are rewards for completing them, and penalties for failing to complete them will be punished accordingly.
Presumably to prevent him from being too negative and to increase his motivation for "work", the contract gives a very brief introduction to task rewards. And what Si Nian cares about the most is the word "benefiting relatives and friends" it mentioned.
Not to mention friends, he can make friends in this world, but his relatives are in another world, how can he benefit his relatives?
Then there are only two possibilities.
First, he is able to "pass on" something very valuable to his loved ones, or indirectly help them.
Second, he is able to see his relatives directly and give certain benefits to them.
In the second case, there are several possibilities, one is that he can go back to the old world, another is that his relatives can come, and finally, in between, he or his relatives can travel between the two worlds.
No matter which possibility it is, for the current Si Nian, it has a huge temptation.
The old naughty grandfather is a little nagging, but he is the best for his grandson. The glue-like parents are forever immersed in the world of the two, but the care that should be given is never lacking. The elder brother who is five big and three rough is a little frizzy, but he is reluctant to let himself do even a little housework...... Obviously, it was only not long after they were separated, but his thoughts had already flooded like a tide.
How sad would they be if they found out they were gone?
Si Nian didn't even dare to think deeply about this question, because even thinking about it for a while would make him feel breathless and suffocating.
Shaking his head and putting this matter aside for the time being, Si began to worry about how to live next.
Radiation, pollution, water shortages, food shortages...... If you don't hurry up and find a way, needless to say go back, it's a question of whether you can survive or not.
Just when he was at a loss, there was a sudden tremor on the ground.
The tremor beneath his feet grew stronger, as if a large group of creatures were rushing in his direction from far and near.
Si Nian looked up into the distance, and saw that the undulating mountain of garbage was constantly collapsing, followed by a group of black, mouse-like creatures.
It is said to be a mouse, but it is much bigger than the mouse that Si Nian has seen wandering in the city, I am afraid that it is bigger than an ordinary cat, as if it has mutated.
As the group of mutant rats got closer, the more terrifying their appearances became more and more visible.
The red eyes are not only weird, but also reveal a murderous cold glow from time to time. Their sharp teeth were exposed to the air, as if they would rush forward and tear wildly at the slightest prey as soon as they approached. The long black hair looks oily and smooth, but with the thin head, it looks even more eerie.
As the rats approached, the ground began to shake. Even a person like Si Nian, who is extremely stable, has a feeling of being untenable.
He tried his best to control his body, trying to find a relatively safe place to hide before the rats arrived, but the constant shaking of the ground made this idea very difficult.
He was like a drunken man, staggering around, just not finding his way.
Seeing that the rat swarm was about to rush in front of him, Si Nian closed his eyes in some despair.
After a while, the expected squeezing and pain did not come, he only felt the back collar of his clothes being lifted, and then it seemed as if it was flying. When he opened his eyes, he was already standing dozens of meters away from the rat colony.
Si Nian had a moment of dizziness, this excessive/rapid speed was beyond the tolerance range of a normal human being, but fortunately, he was in good health, and after a short period of dizziness, he finally woke up.
Si Nian looked to the side, and the first thing that caught his eye was a pair of unusually beautiful eyes.
Those are a pair of eyes that are incomparably beautiful!
The most beautiful words in the world seem to be unable to describe its purity and profundity.
Different from the bleakness of the sky and the shallowness of the water, those eyes have a deeper and brighter blue.
It's easy to indulge in those eyes when you're watching.
"Kashmir sapphire." Si Nian muttered quietly.
The pure blue gemstone that is as pure as the sky of the plateau, rich and slightly purple, is the most appropriate description of these beautiful eyes.
The little girl with these eyes looked like she was about seven or eight years old, and she had golden curly hair, and the big golden waves were casually draped down, and under the caress of the breeze, she curled up a strange style.
Her skin was ruddy and fair, and her cheeks were rounded with the peculiar roundness of a child, which gave her a lovely feeling that was completely different from that of an adult, and formed a huge contrast with those cold eyes, but it was even more seductive.
She wears a dark blue plaid coat with a gray fur vest over it. The style of the clothes is a little larger, which shows her weakness and petiteness more and more.
"Another outcast." A gloating voice rang out from behind him, and he turned to look around.
Around him stood a crowd of shabby-dressed people, who formed a human wall that surrounded him.
The sound comes from the crowd.
These people looked at him strangely, and it seemed to contain complex feelings such as pity, mockery, contempt, and schadenfreude.
Directly behind him stood a burly and stout man, who smiled in a friendly way when he saw him, in stark contrast to the people around him.
Si Nian's favorability towards this person has improved a lot.
"Why are you here?" The blue-eyed girl asked.
Si Nian "understood" the little girl's words, but the problem was that the other party's mouth shape was wrong!
Realizing that this might be a certain benefit from the contract, Si Nian said tentatively: "Here, where is it?" ”
The blue-eyed girl's eyes froze, but she quickly returned to normal, she glanced at Si Nian quietly, and soon took in the strangeness of the other party.
She said in a childlike innocent and coquettish voice: "This is a garbage star, a planet forgotten and abandoned by mankind, why did you come here?" ”
Si Nian shook his head, saying that he didn't know what was going on.
His confusion was so real, through those black clear eyes, without a trace of reservation, it was conveyed to everyone present.
But not everyone is willing to accept such an answer.
"Luis, he's playing dumb!" Suddenly there was such a shout from the crowd.
What followed was a flurry of echoes, as people questioned the origin and purpose of Cheeseyear, and they looked at him with a look of substance and strong malice, as if they were looking forward to the terrible treatment that Si Nian might suffer next.
And at this moment, Si Nian is a little out of the world.
Lois...... Si Nian thought to himself, this is really a name that matches little Lori.
