Chapter 23: A dilemma
On December 21, 2012, seven giant meteors fell from the universe to Earth. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info Asia, Oceania, Africa, Europe, the Americas, and Antarctica are all spared.
These meteors are not just meteorite fragments, they contain extradimensional powers, which can evolve the creatures of entire continents into another form in a very short time, and were later called "God's gift" by humans.
With the exception of humans, all living beings have evolved to be unprecedented in size and aggression, and they have begun to attack cities and villages, completely destroying all traces of human existence. On that day, the era of human domination over the earth began and ended once and for all.
Our ancestors used the USS Heaven to temporarily leave Earth, believing that one day we would reclaim our homeland. This! It's our destiny!
What is our fate!
"Take back the Earth! Take back the Blue Star! Take back our homeland! ”
A group of seven- and eight-year-olds shouted in tears, not loud but enough to make others understand their determination.
"Why don't you shout! Do you understand what these words mean to us? The instructor picked up one of the children and dragged him out of the queue.
Dragonfall was the child in the instructor's hand, he was still silent, did not answer the instructor's words, just looked at the instructor who lifted him up with some sadness.
"Humph! Rubbish! The instructor threw Dragonfall to the ground.
"Materialize 'Sword', Designation: S0002, Alloy Sword." As soon as the instructor spoke, an alloy sword appeared in both his and Dragonfall's hands, suspended in the air.
The holographic projection system on the Paradise can create any object, and with the brainwave projector, all objects look, feel, and taste exactly like the real thing.
Including this alloy sword, Dragonfall could feel its weight the moment he held it. For a seven-year-old child, a sword weighing several kilograms simply could not be cast in his hands.
The instructor didn't care about the dragonfall so much, so he stabbed the dragonfall with his sword.
If you can't fight, you can dodge! Dragonfall dragged the heavy alloy sword back, and the figure of the instructor was so huge in front of him.
The arm is flexed, the teres major muscle contracts rapidly, and the deltoid muscle remains unchanged, which is a stab. Stab the target in the heart, modifying the attack range by 5 centimeters and dodging to the right side.
Dragonfall's time slowed to one-half of what it was in his current life, and his brain raced to calculate every muscle change in the instructor's body, leaning to the right, dodging the instructor's stabbing blows.
"You kid......" The instructor's eyes changed from anger to indifference, and his attack became more agile, almost fighting with all his might.
The offensive was wave after wave, but when it came to the dragonfall, it was all resolved in an instant as if it had come to an iron wall. If you can't break through, is this the gap between humans and new humans?
"Stop your divine endowment! Do you think it's going to be as easy as it is to face the monsters on Earth? They're stronger! Faster! Our ancestors could not defeat them with all kinds of weapons, and it is not for me that you should practice your swordsmanship, but for you to save your own lives! ”
The instructor's face flushed with anger, his sword moves had lost their discipline, and Dragonfall dodged all his sword blows more easily. But in the end......
Bang!
The alloy sword in Dragonfall's hand couldn't withstand the instructor's full attack, and was knocked several meters away. The system immediately terminated the projection of the sword, and the alloy sword disappeared without a trace.
Stopping the divine endowment's "full speed thinking", Dragonfall was an ordinary human child, and the sword was naturally easily knocked away. But he didn't continue to retreat, he stood in front of the instructor, his eyes sharp, like a beast.
Do you want to compete with me in a dignified manner? It's funny to understand the error of your consciousness so quickly, kid.
Suddenly, the instructor's anger faded, and he was very interested in the child named Dragonfall, and a wicked smile rose on the corner of his mouth. The sword in his hand was still stabbing at Dragonfall.
Dragonfall couldn't dodge the instructor's attack at all. He dodged as best he could, but the alloy sword still stabbed him in the chest, and a modular pixel immediately appeared in the "wound", representing the wound suffered by the dragonfall.
The pixels didn't actually cause damage to Dragonfall's body, but he still felt the corresponding pain.
The wound on his right chest was deep, leaving Dragonfall breathless. The instructor didn't give him any chance, and the alloy sword slashed several times at him.
Dragonfall immediately collapsed from exhaustion, and none of the other children dared to step forward to help him. They remained upright and waited for the instructor to speak.
"Indeed, you new humans have divine endowments that we don't have, but the monsters that destroy our homes have the same ones as you! Your illusion that you can save the world with God's endowment alone is unrealistic!
Only by exercising, constantly exercising, allowing your body to keep up with the monster's movements, and allowing your swordsmanship to break through the monster's leather armor, can you have any hope of victory! Not using the Divine Endowment to defeat me is the lowest standard for you! Remember, what your goal is! ”
"Take back the Earth! Take back the Blue Star! Take back our homeland! The roars of the children rang out again on the training ground.
In the dormitory of the Paradise spaceship, Dragonfall collapsed on the bed, and the side effects of the severe pain had not been completely eliminated. Now Dragonfall was suffering from a high fever, and Zhenyan, who was beside him, put on cold towels one after another for him.
"Dragonfall, in fact, you can just shout together, then you don't need to be beaten by the big nose. Shouting and shouting is nothing ......."
Big nose is the nickname given by these children to help the instructor, and the oppression and pain they suffer under the instructor can only be vented in this way.
"I ...... I don't want to shout something like that. "Dragonfall's body is very weak, and he can only barely say a word." Saving our original home is not something that can be done by shouting it all the time. ”
"Dragonfall is right!" Another child named Xingtong in the dormitory said, "Those monsters that the instructors can't defeat, we can't save the earth if we go back to the past." ”
"Xingtong! You're too pessimistic, too. "Zhenyan can't get used to Xingtong's indifferent appearance.
"Have you seen the video of the monster? Those monsters are terrifying. Haven't seen it? Let's take a look at it now. Xingtong stiffened a carp and sat up from the bed. He walked briskly in front of True Yan and Dragonfall. "Holographic system, search database, information on monsters on the earth of yesteryear."
A screen immediately appeared in front of the three children, showing the status of the search.
"Wrong! Mistake! User permissions cannot view the profile. A row of red letters appeared on the screen and a warning sound.
"I know, how can you check the information of monsters if you are less than sixteen years old, Xingtong, don't lie to us."
"Oh, I forgot, wait!" Xingtong put his hands on the screen frozen in mid-air, and tapped quickly. The code flew in the center of the screen, and in less than thirty seconds, he stole an instructor's privileges and broke into the database.
"Look at this one, known as the weakest giant monster 'Boar King', with a length of nearly ten meters and a two-meter-long tusk that can be used as a weapon. The most powerful thing is that it is close to ten centimeters of crust, which cannot be pierced with an ordinary sword! These monsters are amazing! ”
The diorama in the center of the screen was still moving, and the boar king was running around, knocking down a large tree with his fangs in an instant. Xingtong looked at it, there was no fear in his eyes, but a look full of curiosity.
"It's amazing." Zhen Yan couldn't help but be amazed on the side.
"yes, in the face of such fantastical creatures, we don't say that we can beat them."
"No, I mean your hacking skills, now even the holographic system on the spaceship can be hacked."
"Of course! My Xingtong's reputation is not in vain. Hey, complimenting me is a small thing, I want you to see these monsters that we're going to encounter. This boar king is still the weakest, and some monsters can be hundreds or even tens of thousands of times more powerful than it! Do you think saving the planet is a matter of nowhere? ”
"Even if I can't save it, I want to go back to Earth and see." Zhenyan didn't smile, "I heard that the reason why the earth is called the blue star is because there is a whole blue sky overhead, and the edge of the continent is also connected to the endless blue ocean. It's not like we are now, when you look out the window at the dark sky. The only place to live every day is a spaceship formed by these iron plates. ”
"Yes." The dragonfall on the bed looked into the distance, his mind returning to the place where their human ancestors lived. "We're going to do what those instructors can't do and take the Blue Star back from those monsters."
"Take it easy! You can't do anything like that now. Xingtong patted Dragonfall on the shoulder and took off the already warm towel from his forehead. Until then, we'll have to be eighteen years old and finish in the top ten in the sword tournament to be eligible to use the time machine to go back in time. ”
"In eleven years, I'll do it." Dragonfall clenched his fists with his frail body.
Chapter 2: Eighteen years old
The Sword Tournament is the most important event on the Heaven, and every year it takes place on May 10th. The environment of the entire ship will be updated once by the holographic system, and the emblem of the sword in the shield will be displayed everywhere.
The shield is carved with a bird's-eye view of the Blue Star, from which a sword encrusted with rubies pierces the entire Blue Star. This is also the goal of their entire Paradise, to reclaim their Earth with sword and shield.
This year was no exception, and the sword tournament was full of blood and courage. Boys and girls who have just turned 18 will work their way up a sweat in this contest to show their talent and hard work, and the winner will get a chance to go back in time and save the world.
The younger siblings, who are not yet 18 years old, watched the battle, learning the skills of their predecessors, hoping that when they reach the age of 18, they will also be on the stage of salvation.
"Yo! Isn't this Dragonfall? The best swordsman of our class, the savior who is about to participate in the finals, everyone toasts to him! Wei Yan stopped Longfall with the smell of alcohol, raised the wine glass in his hand to the sky, and everyone in the small bar on the side of the aisle immediately toasted to Longfall like him.
"To Dragonfall!" "Savior, remember to save the world as soon as possible and bring us there!"
Eighteen-year-old Dragonfall wore his own custom-made pure white robe, and a dragon-patterned sword hung from his back. For the praise of the group of companions in front of him, Dragonfall did not have a trace of joy.
He didn't reach out to take the wine glass that Wei Yan handed him, but said lightly: "I'll wait for the game, I can't drink." ”
Three points of alcohol went to his brain, and Wei Yan, who was rejected, was unhappy: "What's there to drink a glass!" If you don't try drinking at the age of eighteen, I'm sorry for the privilege of adulthood! ”
"I'm sorry, I don't want to anesthetize myself with alcohol."
"Anesthesia? Do you think we think! "Being said by Long Fall, Yu Yan's anger became a little more." When you say that, do you look down on us left-behind people?! ”
"You didn't have to work hard to get this end."
"You!" Yu Yan slammed the glass to the ground, and the glass immediately shattered to the ground. After a few seconds, the fragments, along with the wine in the glass, began to modularize, and were recovered by the holographic system, disappearing.
Lost, angry, and roaring, several of their fellow companions stood up silently and gathered around Dragonfall with Yu Yan. The bar, on the way to the Sword Tournament, is home to a large number of idle left-behind people who have given up their lives to spend their days on the Paradise aboard the various entertainment facilities.
Waiting for death is their only option.
But they still have the dignity of being a human being, and when they are so reprimanded by their peers, no one will be angry.
"Do you think you're great to be able to enter the finals of the sword fighting tournament?"
"Nope. I'm not special, if you start working hard since you were a child, you will stand on the stage of the sword competition like us. ”
"Humph! Hypocritical! When it comes to solo combat, you naturally win, but the gap between us is not very different! Top 3 in the Tactical Conference? No matter how you look, you can't beat the four of us at the same time. Materialized 'Sword', number S0010, Sapphire Sword. ”
"Materialize Sword ......" "Materialize Sword ......"
Wei Yan and several people around him began to materialize weapons, and a battle seemed inevitable.
Dragonfall's right hand gripped the hilt of the sword carved with dragon scales on his back, and he didn't say a word.
Then a cold light flashed in front of the furious ones. The holograms of those weapons stopped completely after only halfway they were created, and the same warning was displayed on both the broken sword and the broken sword: "Creation failed".
Dragonfall's hand was still turning, and the long sword flew, shattering the wine glasses in the hands of those people in an instant.
"The holographic projection system is just a three-dimensional projection of light and shadow. As long as the creation is blocked, the system's protection measures will be activated to terminate the application for this projection. At the age of nine, the instructor explained this in detail. ”
"You bastard! Do you think we'd be afraid of you without a sword?! Yu Yan grabbed Dragonfall's collar and threw his fist in the face.
"I'm sorry." Dragonfall lowered his head.
"What?" The fist stopped in the air.
"I'm sorry, I didn't understand your feelings." Dragonfall didn't swing his sword, he just withdrew the dragon-patterned longsword to the scabbard behind his back and said to the few people in front of him. "We are all genetically engineered IVF babies that take on the responsibility of saving the world from the moment we are born. Not being able to get a top 10 spot in a sword tournament and be destroyed at the age of twenty is too cruel for us kids. (To be continued.) )
