1. Doomsday Planet

One day, an ultimate world war broke out on a planet called Earth.

This nuclear war wiped out two-thirds of humanity, and the radiation spread throughout Eurasia and North America. Once the birthplace of human civilization instantly became a ghost domain, and all animals and plants were almost completely extinct in the following years. Humanity that survived the war had to put on chemical suits and leave their homes to migrate to outer space.

After hundreds of years on the run, the humans aboard the Hope spacecraft thrived and survived the brutal conditions of the universe. Planet 18 is located at the edge of the Milky Way, the farthest space Hope can reach, and if there are still no human conditions for human survival, Hope will have to drift forever.

The first to arrive on Planet 18 was a group of descendants of Chinese, who were tired of the darkness of the universe and settled here, using the existing high-tech and cutting-edge equipment, and quickly established a new city here - named the City of Hope.

This is where our story takes place.

Mu Yun is an ordinary poor student in the city, his parents died when he was very young, he was raised by a neighbor, and now he is struggling to survive on a small amount of government relief and a few casual jobs. In Mu Yun's eyes, everyone in the City of Hope seems to be living happily, because the families who can immigrate to outer space have a prominent background and countless wealth. He was the only one who was a special case, and as such an orphan, he felt lost about what was to come. In his impression, the whole world seems to be just a path from school to home, and life has never been turbulent and joyful.

At the end of the day's study and work, it was already eleven o'clock in the evening. Mu Yun came out of the night of his part-time job, and dragged his tired body towards his residence.

The streets are lit with neon lights and few pedestrians, and the big billboards in Hope Square are playing commercials for the latest hit game, Doomsday Planet: the latest simulation online game, Doomsday Planet, takes you back to our true home, Earth. Through the 5,000-year development process of China, you can experience a different life, and you can cultivate a super heterosexual partner to accompany you on your game journey.

At the end of the ad is a high-sounding sentence such as "Resist bad games, indulging in games hurts ...... body".

Mu Yun stopped in front of the advertisement and smiled bitterly. Because he knows that such a grand simulation experience game has an almost real feeling, and it is the first choice for Hope Coin players, and he is a part-time student who works and studys, and his livelihood is still a problem, where can he afford to play this kind of game?

However, the next ad made him quite excited: the "Doomsday Planet" Super Pet Competition, where the owner of the strongest pet will receive a huge prize of 100 million hope coins.

100 million hope coins, what is that concept? Mu Yun couldn't help but think like this, I'm afraid I won't be able to eat this hundred million if I eat hamburgers in a Western restaurant, right?

I really want to participate in this competition, and I really want to play this game, but Mu Yun can only think about it. After all, I don't even have a minimum configuration somatosensory computer. He stood in front of the big screen for a long time, looking at the ad over and over again. The beautiful girl in the advertisement is very beautiful, and the technology of the City of Hope can already be real when drawing characters. It is impossible for such a beautiful person to exist in reality, Mu Yun thought: because the country that is good at plastic surgery has been wiped out by nuclear war for hundreds of years.

He smiled wryly, looking rather dismissive, the planet called Earth is in the past, and now you can only experience the former home of mankind in the game?

At eleven o'clock, the luminous bell of the bell tower in the square showed a time point used to mock the singles. Mu Yun finally had to leave the brightly lit square and turned around and walked into the alley just across the street.

The night breeze on the extraterrestrial planet was a little cool, and Mu Yun tightened the thin T-shirt on his body and moved his backpack upward. The alley was pitch black, most of the houses on both sides had turned off the lights, but the windows were flickering with flickering lights, and Mu Yun knew that it was game enthusiasts who were fighting day and night in their virtual world, maybe playing Doomsday Planet. Mu Yun didn't know......

A gust of wind blew up a few pieces of waste paper on the ground, brushed the upper of Mu Yun's shoes, and rolled towards the alley behind him. Mu Yun subconsciously glanced back. Just as he turned around, a bolt of lightning suddenly pierced the ink-stained night sky, illuminating the dark alley, and in the garbage can not far away, something reflected the light of the lightning, stinging Mu Yun's eyes. It was a disc, and Mu Yun could see it clearly.

How could there be such a thing? Mu Yun couldn't help but feel strange, the disc had withdrawn from the historical stage of this era, and now no matter what you do, you can download it from the server on the network, so the disc is no longer needed at all. It must have been a relic of the earth hundreds of years ago, how could it be here?

Mu Yun's first thought was that this thing must be valuable as an antique, so he quickly ran forward and rummaged the disc out of the foul-smelling garbage heap. Another lightning flashed, and the rain poured down, Mu Yun didn't have time to see what kind of disc it was, so he stuffed it into his schoolbag and trotted all the way to the apartment.

Although he was soaking wet, Mu Yun's heart felt a little excited and excited. I'm excited that I've picked up a treasure, and I'm excited that I don't know if this counts as stealing? But on second thought: since it appeared in the garbage heap, it must be no one wanting, and there should be no problem.

The landlord Xiao Mo is a full-time wife, Mu Yun has never met her fiancé, and she never mentions it, although she is not bad to Mu Yun, but in Mu Yun's opinion, this mature woman is very mysterious, because there is always a trace of inexplicable gloom in her modest smile.

She hadn't slept yet, she had just put away her clothes and was about to lock the door. Mu Yun, who was drenched all over, broke in.

"So late, I thought you weren't coming back." Xiao Mo said with a smile.

Mu Yun said: "I'm sorry" quickly threw off his shoes, and then went upstairs, and when he walked to the entrance of the second floor, he said again, "I'm sorry, I won't be next time." After saying that, there was the sound of hurried footsteps.

Xiao Mo shook his head and put the shoes that Mu Yun took off on the shoe rack in an orderly manner, "This kid is always hairy. ”

Mu Yun finally returned to his nest, looking out the window at the lightning and thunder, and the heavy rain pouring, it seemed that this was destined to be an extraordinary night. I locked the door, closed the curtains, took off my soaked shirt three times and two times, and didn't even have time to wipe the water off my body, and couldn't wait to see the treasure I picked up today, the old disc.

He held the disc carefully in his hand, fearing that if he tried a little harder, he would shatter it.

The disc has no pattern or text on either the front or the back, with some scratches on one side and a small note on the other. It reads: Doomsday Planet Final Beta.

Mu Yun's heartbeat seems to beat with those nine words...... "Doomsday Planet"! How is this possible? How can such a new game be stored on a disc?

As if he had found a treasure, he rubbed his hand lightly on the scratches of the disc, and with a click, another thunderclap flashed outside the window, and the electric light in the room flickered twice and then went out.

"There's a power outage?" Mu Yun was about to take a good look at the disc, although it didn't have anything else special. "I didn't expect the power to go out at this time," he cursed in his heart.

At this time, a halo suddenly lit up around the disc, and the aura became bigger and bigger, and the room of more than ten square meters was all shrouded in that bright light, and Mu Yun was naturally in it. The scene around him changed, and what he saw was no longer his room, but a magnificent game screen, in which he was placed, accompanied by sonorous and powerful music, he felt an unprecedented shock, and all the traces of time were reflected in those movie-like pictures, walking faster and faster. He saw the First Sino-Japanese Naval War, saw the pirate ships of the Western Ocean dominate the ocean, saw the Mongol iron cavalry sweeping across Europe and Asia, saw the Silk Road, saw the ancient Roman Empire, saw Cleopatra, saw the saber-toothed tiger, mammoth, dinosaur, saw the land disappear into the ocean, the ocean turned into land again, the vicissitudes of the sea, the universe exploded, the interstellar collision, the earth was born under the reflection of a ball of firelight, and then the earth exploded, and finally returned to the four huge golden characters - "Doomsday Planet".

When he was stunned, a deep voice sounded in the room: Welcome to Doomsday Planet, please set an account and password.
