Volume 1 Escape to the Jedi Chapter 4 The Strange Plague Begins
When Chen Sheng came out of the small shop, the sun outside was still dazzling, and the weather was still so hot. He glanced at his phone, and the time was 5 o'clock in the afternoon, and there was only ...... left until the time when the strange meteorite landed
Two hours!
"Whew."
Facing the dazzling light, Chen Sheng, whose eyes were a little complicated, raised his head and looked at the sky, "If you can, I really don't want to experience that scene again." ”
…………
Time: June 20, 2021 6:59:00 Second.
All over the world, everyone is moving forward at the pace of their own lives. This point in time does not have a special significance for their long and short life, so no one will pay attention to it.
And a minute later, it was exactly 7 o'clock.
The sky began to change strangely. Whether it is night or day, people who look up can clearly see that above the distant sky, the meteors that shimmer a little bit of light have streaked across the sky. They come beautifully and romantically. Many people standing on the ground were amazed and praised, and they closed their eyes and made wishes in their hearts.
At this time, in a bustling city, on a crowded shopping street, a mother and daughter, like others, are looking up at the night sky with white rays constantly crossing.
"Mom, look! Shooting stars are so beautiful! The girl took her mother's hand and said with a look in her eyes a little dumbfounded.
The mother smiled, she squatted down, stroked the girl's soft black hair dotingly, and said: "It seems that Xiao Nan likes meteor showers very much, since you like it, then close your eyes and make a wish, I heard that the wishes made under the meteor shower will come true when you grow up." ”
"Really?" The girl's innocent face shone with excitement, "I want to make a wish!" Mom, you can also make a promise. ”
"Good! Then we both close our eyes together. ”
"Hmm."
“……”
"Mom?"
"What's wrong? Xiao Nan, didn't we say that we wouldn't speak when we made a wish? ”
"No, Mom." Xiao Nan, the girl who secretly opened her eyes, pointed a finger to the sky, and a fiery red dot appeared in her dilated pupils.
"How do I feel...... What about the meteors getting bigger? ”
…………
The future has happened after all.
Whether you were poor or rich in life, you are all the same in the face of natural disasters. Hundreds of meteorites from unknown space rushed into the Earth's atmosphere at the same time, and they fell into the Earth's surface in different directions. And these meteorites, without exception, before entering the earth's atmosphere, there is no country in the world whose satellites and global astronomical organizations have discovered their arrival, as if they appeared out of thin air, and suddenly entered the earth.
As a result, thousands of people died in the crash.
At the same time, on the top floor of a high-star hotel, in a presidential suite. Chen Sheng, who was alone, stood on the balcony, his gaze falling and sinking with a fiery red point of light in the night sky in front of him, until he stopped at a certain moment. Then, a stream of air from afar, mixed with a large amount of smoke and dust, suddenly appeared, and rushed straight towards the hotel.
Chen Sheng pulled through the window, and the sand "crackled" against the glass window. This sudden strong air flow originated from the direction in which the fiery red light point disappeared, and Chen Sheng clearly remembered that in that direction, there seemed to be a city with a large population.
"The red star breaks through the sky, the hundred stars fall to the ground, and chaos will arise. This is just the beginning. After Chen Sheng said this, he turned around, intending not to pay attention to the situation outside.
"Wow! For! For! ”
At this moment, there was a knock at the door.
A female waitress standing outside the door of the suite shouted into the door, "Sir, excuse me, we are waiters at the hotel." Something happened outside just now, we want to go in to make sure that the doors and windows of Mr.'s room are closed tightly, can you open the door and let me in? ”
Chen Sheng, who was sitting on the sofa, glanced at the door and replied, "No, I've already taken care of it." ”
"No, sir, please let us ......"
"I said, no."
This time, Chen Sheng's tone was no longer calm, and the faint anger made the waiter outside the door who wanted to continue to dissuade him pause.
“…… Okay sir, I'm sorry to bother. As soon as the waiter finished his apologetic words, he walked away from the door.
Chen Sheng in the room got up from the sofa again, he walked to the door, and through the cat's eye, he was sure that the waitress had walked into another room opposite him. Then the lock was turned, the knocker was fastened, and then he pushed another piece of the sofa in the living room against the door, and took two pieces of soap from the bathroom, dipped them in water, and stuffed them under the crack in the door, so that the fragrance would not disappear too quickly or spread too widely.
After doing this, Chen Sheng returned to his bedroom, thoroughly cleaned himself in the bathroom, changed into a new set of black clothes and comfortable sneakers, and took out a police pistol full of bullets from the storage ring. Finally, he lay down on the bed, his eyes fixed on the ceiling, ready to wait quietly for the final apocalypse......
Time: June 20, 2021 8:12:33.
"Ahh
A terrible scream resounded throughout the hotel building, waking up Chen Sheng, who closed his eyes and recuperated. In the darkness, he quickly sat up, and his originally calm eyes now burst into a gloomy gaze like a wild wolf.
time, a little later than he expected, it seems that in the last life, he was really killed by the strange corpse that Kim Rihae's kid became.
Chen Sheng, who flashed a few thoughts, stepped out of bed, his footsteps were very soft and steady, and every time the soles of his shoes landed, they were almost silent.
In the apocalypse, if you don't have absolute strength, then keep quiet, screaming and making noise will only make you more quickly discovered by nearby corpses and mutant beasts, and then become a snack that they devour alive.
Opening the bedroom door, Chen Sheng came to the dark living room. Even though the presidential suite was well insulated, Chen Sheng, who was in the middle of the living room, could still hear the screams, explosions, and ...... coming from outside An eerie low growl. Glancing at the position of the curtains that had been tightened, Chen Sheng turned his gaze to the door that was tightly pressed against the sofa, and he walked over slowly, the pistol held on his chest, and his head poked into the cat's eye.
In the hallway, the lights were still bright, but no one was in sight.
It seems that there will be no danger on this floor for the time being. Thinking to himself, Chen Sheng made sure that the door lock was correct again, and then he walked away from the door and returned to the sofa in the living room.
Where the strange meteorite originated, even Chen Sheng, who had lived in the era of the cataclysm for 60 years, had no way of knowing, but all the humans who were able to survive the early stage of the anomalytic disaster knew that the culprit who caused countless earth creatures to become monsters that could only devour everything they saw in a short period of time, giving mankind a crisis of destruction, in fact, was also the "savior" who gave them the opportunity to survive and continue to evolve.
Although I don't want to admit it, the arrival of the strange meteorite, a strange ray carried on it, while creating many terrifying monsters, has also successfully transformed the life genes in the human body, so that all kinds of strange and incomprehensible abilities and powers emerge in humans one by one.
At this point, at the beginning of the era of calamity, mankind has also entered a new era of evolution. Those who survive and gain abilities are called new humans.
Now, a very important thing for Chen Sheng to do is to check whether the first ability generated by his genetically modified body has appeared after being affected by the strange ray, and whether it is still the original ability.
The easiest way to test is to actively force the ability out.
At the beginning of the outbreak of the Plague, for most of the new humans who had just acquired the ability, they used the ability like a baby learning to walk, sometimes they could use it, sometimes they couldn't, and the good or bad performance depended on fate. But for Chen Sheng, the top powerhouse of the new human race who has been 60 years old, using his abilities is a matter of blinking his eyes and moving as he wishes.
It's just that one of the more troublesome problems at the moment is that when Chen Sheng's first ability is used, he must have a target, otherwise, he won't be able to detect whether it is used or not.
"Will it ...... Is it possible that you have gained a different ability in this life? After all, I am not the same state as I was then. ”
Chen Sheng, who was quite looking forward to it, thought about it for a while, and planned to follow the previous method and use deep meditation to trigger the hidden abilities in this unevolved body, and maybe he could get unexpected surprises.
Like the ancient cultivators and Zen practitioners, Chen Sheng sat cross-legged on the sofa, his upper body straight, and his eyes slightly closed. Then, my mind began to meditate on the meditation practice that had been taught to me by the master in my previous life. In just a few seconds, the originally tense nerves quickly relaxed, and in Chen Sheng's mind, thousands of thoughts gradually emptied, and his soul seemed to have returned to the previous life, and soon entered a mysterious and mysterious wonderful realm.
At this moment, in the darkness, a faint silver-blue light suddenly flashed away from somewhere on Chen Sheng's body.
Chen Sheng opened his eyes like lightning, and in his eyes, there was an unexpected surprise and a clearly visible ...... Ecstasy! His slightly thin body almost trembled, and he whispered, "I didn't expect it...... It's a natural ability! ”
In the future, when the human crisis situation has been initially eased, some new humans who are good at research will count and classify the data of various abilities that they currently have in the world, and finally, they have formulated a set of theories of five new human abilities, that is, the abilities are divided into: natural, physique, alien, change, and special.
Nature, the ability to control the use of an elemental substance on Earth for one's own use, was once considered the most powerful ability class, and the most obvious way to distinguish it was by changing the color of the pupils.
Physique, that is, keeping the original appearance unchanged, body parts or whole body strengthened, and being able to constantly break through the limits of one's own physique, belongs to the most common type of ability, and the way to distinguish it is that there is no change in physical characteristics.
Xenomorphs, i.e., people with other additional organs growing out of body parts, such as tails, wings, multiple eyes, and multiple hands, are often considered to be the weakest of the abilities, or those who have failed genetic modification, and can be distinguished by significant changes in physical characteristics.
Mutations, the genes in the body are compatible with other animals and elemental substances, and they have the ability to change into other states in an instant, and only when they use their abilities, the body shape will change greatly, and the way to distinguish it is that a special mark will be produced somewhere on the body.
Special, which doesn't accurately define the ability of the class, such as healing, soundwave, telekinesis, etc.
The disaster is opened, and it is recommended to collect it all!!
