Chapter 1: The Mysterious Woman
They have finally chosen to come.
But "that time", how did humanity become extinct?
Is it because of "disobedience"?
Perhaps, from the very beginning, human beings did not live autonomously. Our ancestors were so weak that they had to develop the wisdom of using tools. In fact, no matter how powerful a tool is, it cannot hide the fact that man himself is weak.
Yes, humanity has always been in a vulnerable position, and perhaps we have spent millions of years conquering the natural world, but we have not been able to conquer our own hearts. Fear, since the day of life, has been spreading.
Hunting, being hunted......
To conquer, to be conquered......
To destroy, to be destroyed......
Countless lives are lost like stars; All that was left was the trail of light that pierced the night sky; Even if it was so beautiful, it was only a flick of a finger.
The vast majority of human beings have been chasing one thing all their lives - "Remember me!" β
Because he realizes that his life is short, time is fleeting, and Xiao Xiao is easy to decay; So chasing eternity. Everything with eternal value is worth paying for, even if you die for it.
But as everyone knows, the wine of eternity is a cup of poison.

"We human beings are only in a relatively low dimension, and our cognition is even narrower, and we can only perceive three dimensions by relying on our sensory functions......"

"This is the last chance...... It is better to either let Him defeat Them, or let Him end us early, even if we ourselves go to destruction, than to be mercilessly humiliated by Them! β

"Please, make him a hero to all mankind!"

"I'm going to kill them all!!"

"All the warriors who still have a shred of their dignity as human beings! We're going to die - hold this last line of defense! β

The final line of defense, will it hold or collapse? Everything starts "this time" on June 7: the story is often a series of waves and extraordinary, breaking into the ordinary.
β»β»College Entrance Examination Dayβ»β»
Jingle Bell Bell ...... It's the alarm clock that is ringing.
"It's noisy!" It seems that someone complained, and then turned off the alarm.
[Well, now that the world is quiet, you can continue to sleep......]
Fifteen minutes feels like a long time when you're half-asleep and half-awake.
"Oops!" Jing Xiang stiffened violently and sat up from the bed, "It's late!" Today was the first day of the college entrance examination, and he was scared into a cold sweat when he realized the terrible fact that there was less than half an hour left in the examination room and he would not let himself in.
"Damn, I've been repeating my studies for a year, and my life is gambling on this exam!" In a hurry, he finished washing and dressing in less than a minute. However, to his great horror, he seemed to have slept naked last night.
[Strange, impossible, I obviously slept with the air conditioner on my clothes...... Don't? γ
He noticed that there was an abnormal protrusion in the quilt, so he swallowed his saliva and gently lifted the corner of the quilt.
"Don't move~ People still want to sleep for a while!"
[It's a girl...... Moreover, I also saw the other party's bare back! γ
Jing Xiang trembled and covered the quilt and quickly packed up the stationery; He hesitated for a moment as he walked out the door, but finally did not remove the keycard.
Mainly in a hurry, so he stayed alone in a hotel near the exam room, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen!
"This kind of thing happened to me...... What a beast I am! Thoughts like this don't come to Jing Xiang's mind at the moment, because there are more troublesome things that have been bumped into by him.
"For what?! Why don't you let me in? Jing Xiang looked at his watch, and there were still three minutes before the time limit for prohibiting entry into the examination room.
However, he saw the doorman sweating profusely and shivering, "I...... I said it, you...... You are suspicious, you are not allowed to go in and spoil the atmosphere of the exam, you ...... If you pester, I'll ...... I'll report it...... Alarm! β
Not only the doorman, but also the surrounding parents also looked like they had seen some ghosts, and when he saw this, his heart was half cold.
[Oh no...... My bad luck actually ...... at this time]
No matter how much explanation was given, the people around him seemed to be frightened by something, and their souls were about to fly. Jingxiang had no choice but to go back to the hotel disheartened.
Along the way, the cat and dog blew up when they saw him, and the driver of the car began to apply the brakes when he was far away, as if everything was clearing his way, and everything seemed to be repelling him.
He doesn't want to spend another year, and his parents also let him live alone in junior high school because of his bad luck.
At school, he has always been alone, his classmates are alienated from him, and the teachers are afraid that he will ask questions, let alone ask him...... Over time, apart from the detective novels and mathematics, geography, and history that he was interested in, he became insulated from his studies.
In fact, Jing Xiang himself didn't know why Lu Dao became like this, and everyone was afraid of him.
But...... Today is destined to be an unusual day, because, the single bed that has been sleeping alone for a long time, from this morning, suddenly got into a girl.
When Jing Xiang returned to the hotel and was about to take out the room card to open the door, he suddenly recalled this - he left the room card to "her".
The reason why he made the move of leaving the room card at that time was that he subconsciously thought that he had done despicable behaviors such as XX and OO to the girl, and then, of course, Jingxiang was responsible for her. He left her the room card and the things in the room, indicating that he would not run away alone.
But how do you open the door now?
There is no way out of the mountains and rivers, and the willows and flowers are bright and another village.
With a click, the door suddenly opened a small crack, and through the glimmer of light coming from the crack in the door, he could glimpse a person looking at him through the crack in the door.
"Coming back so soon? Not...... Then you must be turned away? β
Although he couldn't see the girl's expression clearly, Jing Xiang could still imagine her smiling expression.
As soon as I thought of this, an evil fire ignited in my heart. He couldn't help clenching his fists, but of course he didn't want to beat people, but to show his unwillingness.
As if noticing Jing Xiang's reaction, the girl opened the door and patted him on the shoulder very happily, and said with a smile: "A little more energetic~"
"Heyβ" Jing Xiang was dumbfounded.
"Life is not the only way!"
"Hey, hey!" Jing Xiang stretched out and pointed to the girl's chest.
"By the way, how about my sister take you to a fun place today?" After speaking, she bent down slightly, looking at Jing Xiang with her big crystal eyes and crooked her neck, which was very cute.
"Wow! I haven't got my clothes on yet, so wait a minute! β
Bang! The door closed again.
Jing Xiang felt that his nose was itchy, and he felt that something was flowing down, so he stretched out his hand and wiped it, fortunately it was not red...... It's just that I have a runny nose because of the cold.
After another fifteen minutes, the neatly dressed girl sat at the desk, staring at Jing Xiang with her cheeks propped up.
Jing Xiang sat cross-legged on the edge of the bed very helplessly, his eyes were dim, his pupils were very gray, and the ten fingers of his hands kept touching each other, wanting to stop talking.
Finally, he made up his mind, stood up and bowed deeply to the girl, "I'm sorry, though...... I've forgotten what I did to you, but...... But I'll be responsible for you! While...... Of course...... I don't have the ability now, and I only rely on the living expenses given by my parents, but ...... But I'll go to work! If...... You're leaving, I'm ...... I will also count your loss as money, and I will definitely not let you suffer! I...... I ......" He said in a low voice, speaking quickly and slowly, pondering his words as he spoke.
Jing Xiang, who lowered his head, didn't see it, the girl had been covering her mouth since he said the first word, her eyes flashing and blinking, as if she had discovered the most interesting thing in the world.
"Okay~" The girl bit her lower lip, held back her laughter very hard, and cleared her throat to show a serious temperament, but no matter what she did, she still couldn't stop Jingxiang's words that would later make the girl remember for a lifetime.
"I will definitely treat you with sincerity!!"
Jing Xiang seemed to use all his strength to roar, so that his voice was a little hoarse when he said this.
And after this, Jing Xiang also breathed a sigh of relief, and slowly raised his head to look at the classic beautiful girl with willow eyebrows, ink crystal pupils, red phoenix eyes, and melon seed face.
I saw that the girl's lips opened slightly, and the expression of the whole person looked like a "embarrassed" word.
Despite this, Jing Xiang still frowned, staring at the girl's eyes very seriously.
"Poofβ"
Haha......ha
The mysterious girl leaned back and smiled until her whole body was paralyzed before she had a tendency to stop.
"Maybe you don't believe me, but I'm serious! I do what I say! Jing Xiang thought that the girl doubted his character, and complained unhappily.
The girl was so happy that she twitched for a while by this sentence, and then waved her hand weakly and said, "Okay, okay...... Jingxiang children's shoes, don't like me! Otherwise, you will die a miserable death~"
"Andβ" Before Jing Xiang could come back to his senses, the girl continued, "I can cure your illness!" β
"Sick?!" Jing Xiang suddenly became energetic and listened with his ears pricked up.
"Phew, what's not sick, I'm confused about your thinking, it's called superpowers, you big idiot!" The girl gave Jingxiang a burst.
"As for my name...... the girl said this, looked around, jumped up and looked out of the window, "It's called Jing Mo!" β
"From today onβ" The girl turned her back to the sun, and the sun circled behind her in a circle of light, lining her like a god, "I'll be your sister, brother, do you hear?" β
On June 7, 12, Jingxiang officially got rid of "singleness" and had a nominal "sister".
However, this cheap sister couldn't help him fill in the blanks in the language exam......
"Anyway, that ......" Jing Xiang shyly touched his earlobe.
Seeing that he looked like he wanted to speak and stopped, Jing Mo immediately reacted to what he wanted to ask, "Don't worry, you didn't do anything to me, I got into your quilt by myself, who told you to set the temperature of the air conditioner so low last night!" If you don't believe it, that kind of thing must have been done, there will be traces left, I just got up anyway, it's impossible to clean it up, you go check it yourself~"
Hearing this, Jing Xiang turned around and wanted to lift the sheet, but he didn't dare to stretch out his hand.
"It's a wretch, you can do whatever you want!" Jing Mo said with hatred that iron is not steel, and he moved the quilt away, and sure enough, there was nothing left; "No wonder you can't control your abilities after they awaken."
"Ability? Control? Jing Xiang grasped the key words and threw out his questions in one go: "Do you know what my ability is?" How can I control it? I...... I've been hurt enough by this thing. β
"Stop, stop, I've received your grievances, well, this thing can't come in a hurry, I'm not an expert in this area, if you have superpowers, I still need to bring you to ask a professional to help." Jing Mo spread his hands, "And the most important thing now is-"
"What is it?"
"I'm hungry," cooed......
Jing Xiang stared at Jing Mo's stomach speechlessly.
In a Western-style fast food restaurant, a strange scene is being staged, a big boy who obviously looks like an ordinary high school student sits opposite a beautiful woman wearing sunglasses and gobbling up. What's even more speechless is that the beautiful woman in sunglasses is still talking while eating - "GurrrPurr......"
The corners of Jing Xiang's mouth twitched and picked up a napkin to help Jing Mo wipe the residue from the corners of his mouth, and said, "Don't talk when you eat, and, please pay attention to your image!" β
After speaking, Jing Xiang looked at the people around him who were eating breakfast, and everyone who was touched by Jing Xiang's gaze cowered and stopped looking at this side.
"Uh~ so full, so full...... Well, your abilities are really strong, you can do bad things and not let people say it, haluha. Jing Mo held up his stomach that didn't seem to rise and fall and smiled with satisfaction.
"I didn't want to do that kind of thing, I hated this ability of mine, if it was really a superpower, not a disease." Jing Xiang said lightly.
Jing Mo took off his sunglasses and said to the big boy, "You look into my eyes." β
Jing Xiang stared at Jing Mo's eyes, and his face was reflected in his pupils.
"Do you think you're scary?"
"No...... Very ordinary. β
"Are you content with this ordinary?"
"Hmm......" Jingxiang was speechless.
"Huh? Didn't think about it or didn't want to say it? β
"I ......"
"If you have the ability, you must have the consciousness to use it, for example, to use it to protect something."
"Protection...... But my abilities only make people away from me and afraid of me. β
"Isn't there still someone close to you?" When Jing Mo said this, he grabbed Jing Xiang's hand.
Jing Xiang instinctively shrank, but his eyes couldn't leave Jing Mo's pupils, as if he was attracted by that deep gaze, and relaxed very peacefully.
"Hmmm......"
"So, are you satisfied with the ordinary and powerless now?"
"No...... I want to control it, and then β protect what's important. β
"Isn't that all there is to it?" Jing Mo put on his sunglasses again, pulled up Jing Xiang and said happily, "Let's go!" β
"Huh?" Jing Xiang woke up from the chaotic state just now, and his back suddenly broke out in sweat, "What did you do to me?" β
Jing Mo turned his head, "I asked myself what I did to me before, and now I ask you what I did to you?" As he spoke, the corners of his mouth curved in an elegant arc, "Hehe, if hypnotism can be regarded as a superpower, then I will use a superpower on you!" β
What is hypnosis, Jing Xiang, who has read many detective novels, of course knows that it is a common psychological application, and it is not a superpower in the general sense at all, and after thinking about the content of being hypnotized before, it seems that there is no harm in it, so he took the initiative to accept the idea instilled in himself by his "sister" - use his ability to protect!
The weather in the city is very hot in June, and you will be sweating profusely after walking down the street for a while.
However, the strange thing is that Jing Mo did not sweat, and Jing Xiang, who was walking beside her, also felt that the temperature was suitable, and there was no precursor to heat stroke.
After walking for nearly two hours, the two finally stopped in front of the gate of a school. "Palliative Health School 235 Branch" is the name of this very humble school.
To say that it is inconspicuous is that it is not even an undergraduate, and there is no real school gate, only a fenced iron gate like the side gate of the old factory, located in the residential area of the old city.
It's true that the school is very old, and it doesn't look like it's coming from any students. Even the surroundings seem to give a sense of reconstruction. Although inconspicuous, Jing Mo insisted that this was the place where she wanted to bring him to "treatment".
"This school, you must be admitted!" When Jing Mo said this, it was like a parent pointing to a prestigious university and patting his child on the shoulder with anticipation.
In the face of such a school, Jing Xiang, a fresh high school student who always has some expectations for himself, can't raise his energy.
"Are you sure this guy can heal me?" Jing Xiang was already suspicious from the bottom of his heart.
Jing Mo smiled with a sunny face: "Hmm! However, it is not to cure you, but to study you! β
"Research ...... Study? Jing Xiang suddenly felt that his forehead was heavy.
"Hee-hee, here, research is equal to salvation!" Jing Mo turned around with her hands behind her back, and the breeze blew through her long blue hair, blowing pieces like catkins - white plastic bags; "This is the Abnormal Human Research and Rescue Center!"
