Chapter 1: The Eleven Cities of Steel

The Eleven Cities of Steel, the last habitat of mankind.

Whatever one may say, human nature ...... After all, it is greedy.

The year 5020 is a year of near-destruction of human civilization. Although technology has changed the world, it can't change the greed in the hearts of human beings.

This year, a war finally broke out between the five superpowers that swept the world.

And the source of war is the various resources that exist in the vast starry sky.

In the field of aviation, Huaxia, after 30 years of painstaking development, has finally led the world, leaving other countries far behind.

At the beginning, Huaxia wanted to exchange technology in the field of aerospace with the other four countries.

However, those four countries tacitly blocked their own technology. is reluctant to let Huaxia make a breakthrough in this field.

The vast starry sky and its abundant resources bring benefits beyond imagination. With such a huge piece of cake, of course, I don't want anyone to join in.

Then, Huaxia worked hard and finally made its own space station, and there were many breakthroughs in the exploitation of space resources.

This time, the other four countries have blown up, and the exploitation of space resources, in addition to the most basic economic interests, also has its strategic significance.

Subsequently, the four countries and China began negotiations to share space resource extraction technology.

However, how could Huaxia agree to such an unreasonable request, naturally refused.

The other four countries will not get the technology, and they will not watch Huaxia swallow this big cake alone.

In the years that followed, friction was constantly created, and reasons were found to go to war. Trying to divide the Huaxia Kingdom and divide it and eat it.

In the end, Shikoku couldn't wait any longer and finally showed his demonic fangs, and from then on, the war broke out completely.

October 5020.

It was the worst month since the war began.

The world's more than 7 billion people have plummeted to more than a billion because of the arrival of war.

Whether it is the aristocracy, the conglomerate, or the commoners, they are all swept up in the killing machine of war, and there are countless casualties.

Some of the consortia and big families involved in the war heard some news that the five major powers were going to use biological and chemical weapons, and after researching them, they all felt that they could not sit idly by. Once the war turns from hot military to biochemical, then there may be no pure land in this world.

Fuck the war, fuck the interests.

Only living by oneself is king.

Therefore, some big conglomerates, and families, began to prepare, find the ideal location, and do their best to arrange the fortress of survival, to prepare as many living materials as possible, hoping that they can avoid this biological war.

Once the war has begun, it cannot be stopped.

Originally, it was still a siege of one country by four countries, but as the war deepened.

Some contradictions gradually emerged between the ambitious four countries. Then it magnifies, and the friction continues.

In the end, the five countries scuffled and red-eyed.

The biochemical war has begun, the virus is raging all over the world, and humanity is vulnerable after all.

In the ruined city, you can always see humans wandering the streets, like zombies. It has long since lost consciousness, leaving only instinctive nerve reactions, but it will not live long.

The primeval mountains and forests everywhere are also in the midst of this war...... Destroy.

Everywhere you look, there are black broken tree trunks, which are lifeless. The land has also become dark red and charred, apparently cut off, and the land once again has the possibility of green life.

The five major countries have long been shattered by biochemical warfare, and the world is in a state of anarchy.

In December 5020, the war ended once and for all. Because the country is gone. All that is left is a ruined planet with little life.

In January 5020, gray snowflakes fell from the sky, which lasted for a day or so. All over the world, the climate is starting to get harsh.

The accelerated melting of glaciers in the Arctic and Antarctic has led to a sharp increase in sea levels and inundated some low-altitude areas.

Snowflakes are the size of goose feathers in the sky, fluttering with the wind, and it seems that the snow that has swept the world will not stop for a while, and the temperature around the world has plummeted. It's approaching about minus 20 degrees.

This snow. It lasted for more than two months, and the snow was a few feet deep, turning the ruined earth into a blanket of gauze, bandaging a scarred patient.

In December 5021, a year had passed since the war, and many of the consortia and families hidden in the underground fortresses they had opened up had also been wiped out, but in the end, some people survived. But they still didn't dare to open the gate and lead to the ground, because they didn't know if the outside environment was suitable for survival at this time.

In January 5021, on a certain day during the month, the surviving humans fell into a collective coma.

And on the huge earth, there seem to be some things that ordinary people can't understand. In some areas, there are some ripples of time and space that even scientists can't explain, and from these ripples, some vague energy is emitted into this world.

This lasted for an hour or so, and the ripples of time and space disappeared.

Everything is calm, only the people who are waiting to wake up.

In March 5021, the snow and ice in some areas began to melt, revealing the long-lost soil. At the same time, it is surprising that the land that was originally extinct has a trace of greenery.

In June 5021, some primeval forests on the earth also began to burst out with some vitality, which came faster than expected, within a few days, sprouts grew from the dry trees, and then in the next few days, frantically absorbed the nutrients existing in the ground to replenish their bodies.

Like a hungry and thirsty person, when he encounters food and sweet rain, the wind and clouds fill his stomach.

During this month, most of the primary forest becomes vibrant and rapidly evolving. Surprisingly, some creatures have also appeared. However, there are some creatures that appear that are not in the original cognition of humans, that is, new species have appeared.

In August 5021, the human beings hidden in the underground fortress became more and more scarce in living resources, and had no choice but to explore the outside world.

As soon as they came to the ground, they were dumbfounded, there was no imaginary dilapidation, but a world full of life.

A colorful python, unexpectedly, swallows a person who is full of joy to check this unknown world in one bite.

A scream that alarmed everyone here.

Before these people could react, a big bird, with wings covering the sky and the sun, swooped down at great speed, opened its claws, and grabbed the colorful python that was still devouring humans just now.

Then they soared into the sky and disappeared, leaving only the stunned people.

Their mouths are all muttering, how can a bird become so huge, and its size is comparable to that of an airplane.

And the danger was only just beginning, and it wasn't until another person was fed by a giant bug that they were relieved. Crazy escape back to the underground fortress.

In September 5021, humans in the underground fortress gradually learned the so-called law of the jungle, and began to fight against the dangers of the forest, while also looking for food to replenish energy.

In October 5021, on the land, there were gradually some protection houses, which were the habitats of major consortia and big families, and they were also the original prototype of the Eleventh City of Steel.

In March 5042, twenty-one years, five major consortia and six major families worked together to create a new homeland and a new human civilization. That is the Eleventh City of Steel, and since then, humans have a habitat where they can roam freely, but outside the city, there are still many dangers.

The five major consortia and the six major families also jointly customized new rules and established a joint army. As the saying goes, there are no rules.

Until...... In 5316, some unknown forces began to permeate the planet, and the contradictions beneath the surface of hundreds of years of peace gradually began to emerge. After all...... There are always people who are not willing to be left behind.
