Chapter 0001: Perfect Life
In 2014.
The northern extension of the Great Rift Valley, where the Red Sea meets the Suez Canal......
Here is thousands of miles of red land, at a glance, all the vast and boundless long loess earth, the vast territory from ancient times to the present has low vegetation coverage, except for the sailing ship, the inaccessible track.
Twenty years ago, however, in 1994, a majestic base made entirely of steel rose almost overnight on the East Coast Plain and stands to this day!
Who owns it?
What's in the base?
Some of the nearest villages and towns are 100 kilometers away, and the local residents only know that anyone who dares to cross the cordon set up a kilometer from the base will be shot dead on the spot, and the local government will turn a blind eye.
On the walls and guard towers of the base, there are more than 500 elite soldiers in full armor guarding them at all times, dressed in desert camouflage and wearing heavy body armor, guarding the perimeter of the base like an iron tower......
Mystery is often the most intriguing, and there is always endless speculation about what is in the base.
Some say that it was the place where some of Africa's major warlords secretly researched weapons of mass destruction.
Others say that it is where all the diamonds and gold mined in Africa by a wealthy man are stored.
All kinds of speculation have never been broken......
It wasn't until ten years ago that a strange old man riding a lion passed by the area, and after seeing the base, he finally said something that made the local residents feel creepy.
He said - this is a terrible cage with a devil in it!
Since then, almost all the inhabitants of these villages and towns have fled as long as they can, making the surrounding area even more desolate.
......
In mid-July, a night when a heat wave rolled in.
In the center of the base, a steel fortress with a hundred blades high stands here, and the top is pierced by dark clouds, which is a miracle!
In all directions, all of them are heavily armed soldiers, more in number than anywhere in the base, and the guards are extremely tight, and the occasional passing insider will be strictly checked!
On the second floor of the fortress, in the dark corridor, it was dark and deep, with a dull roar from time to time, mixed with some metal crashing sounds, as if leading to an endless abyss, and there were demons lurking in the darkness.
Two heavily armed guards walked back and forth in the corridor, their heavy boots making a dull noise as they stepped on the ground, until they reached the middle of the corridor, when one of them finally stopped slowly, turned around and looked at the prison next to him with interest.
A ...... An infinitely reinforced prison!
Just like the iron cage, but the steel bars used for welding are too thick, like the thickness of the arm, and it is layer by layer, and it is enough to reinforce twelve layers before it stops!
In the darkness, it is faintly visible, and there is a person imprisoned inside!
A miserable man, with his limbs chained to the wall!
Tall and burly, about 1.85 meters tall, the body presents an almost perfect golden ratio, the muscles are coiled around its body like an angry dragon, but it does not give people a sense of stiffness like Mr. Bodybuilder, but is very coordinated, full of elasticity, just by looking at it, you can feel the explosive power hidden in the muscle fibers!
Black hair is like a steel needle, sword eyebrows, angry eyes, sharp edges and corners, nose like a hanging gall, and a square mouth!
The whole face covered by the messy hair is full of masculinity, and it is already a face that cannot be described as handsome or handsome, it can only be said that the male sense of aggression and oppression is interpreted to the fullest!
"Bang Bang Bang Bang ......"
Every time the man in the darkness moved, the chains that held him in place made a series of crashing sounds.
"Beast!"
The guard sneered, looked at the man inside, and teased: "Let you break out and hurt people, now you know the bitterness, right?"
The man hung his head and said nothing, his black hair covering half of his cheeks, but there was a cold glow in his eyes.
Seeing this scene, the other guard couldn't help frowning, as if he was afraid of something, pulled his companion, and said in a low voice: "Okay, let's continue patrolling, it's better not to mess with this beast, have you forgotten what happened in the morning?
"It's fine!"
The guard waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's all imprisoned like this, is it possible that he can still turn the sky upside down?"
"Let's go!"
His companion seemed to be somewhat afraid of the imprisoned man, and said in a deep voice: "After all, this guy is the only one who survived among the thousands of real people, and he has the genes of several primeval supreme races, and he is a freak himself, and he doesn't know how many secrets are hidden in his fucking body, and he has great potential, don't provoke him to cause trouble!"
"Mother-in-law, mother-in-law, look how Lao Tzu teases this beast!"
The guard smiled, "Bang" kicked on the iron fence, and shouted: "Hey, mongrel, lie on the ground and bark a few times for the dog, and the master will give this to you!"
As he spoke, he took out a compressed biscuit and shook it in mid-air, teasing him, he knew that this beast had been hungry all day because of what happened in the morning, and now he was hungry for food!
"Roar!"
What answered him was a roar like an angry dragon, and the rolling sound waves spread in the air, like thunder, and it was hard to believe that a person's voice could be so terrifying!
The next moment, the imprisoned man jumped up suddenly, and slammed into the iron fence like a cannonball, and the chains tied to his limbs were stretched straight with a "clang". Just listening to the "boom", the whole fortress was slammed and trembled, and the frightened guard sat down on the ground with a butt!
However, the strange thing is that at the moment when the man burst out, a blue arc suddenly appeared on the iron chain tied to his body, and the "Kara" knocked the man down on the spot, and he knelt on the ground with a painful face, but when he looked at the two guards opposite, his eyes were full of resentment and killing intent!
The guard was already pale with fright at this time, sitting on the ground "humming" and panting, and it took a long time before he finally came back to his senses, only to find that he didn't know when, his whole body was already soaked in cold sweat, and even the legs were cold, and he was directly incontinent!
Annoyed and angry, they jumped up and were about to teach the man inside a lesson, but who knows, an old voice sounded behind them: "What are you doing?"
I saw that an old man with sparse hair and a dry corpse holding a wooden box in his arms appeared behind them at some point, his eyes were terrifying!
"Ah, Old Li, why are you here so late?"
The frightened guard suddenly shuddered, and looked back with some horror at this dry old man who looked like a dried corpse, like a frosted eggplant, and didn't even dare to raise his head.
"If I don't come, I don't know what kind of basket you're going to make!"
Li Lao stretched out his scarlet tongue* on thin lips, his face was like withered bark, the whole person was gloomy, and his appearance was indescribably terrifying in this darkness: "If you don't want to die, get out, don't affect my work!"
"Hey, you're busy!"
The two guards ran out almost in a hurry, obviously terrified of the old man, and fled to the top of the stairs when they heard a low, hoarse roar in the darkness - I will kill you!
was so frightened that the two of them stumbled at that time and rolled down the stairs directly.
When the surroundings finally quieted down, the gloom on Li Lao's face finally faded, and was replaced by a kind of heaviness, holding the wooden box tremblingly towards the prison, he was too old, as if he would fall to the ground at any time, like a candle in the wind, the pace was not very steady, and when he came to the prison, he trembled and took out the key from his jacket pocket, and opened the door directly with a "Kala"!
Layer by layer, until all the doors were opened, he walked towards the fierce man and took off the chains that held the man in prison!
Strangely, the man did not rise up, but was surprisingly quiet, and when he looked up, the expression on his face was ...... Especially when looking at the old man, his eyes flashed with something almost envious: "Grandpa, you are here." ā
"Alas......"
Li Lao sighed faintly, sat down, looked at the man deeply, and said softly: "They beat you in the morning, does it hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt!"
The man laughed, clean and pure, showing a mouthful of white teeth, which was so different from before that it was hard to imagine that these two very different personalities would appear in the same person!
Perhaps, only Li Lao is the only one in this world who knows that this man is actually a blank sheet of paper, and what remains on his body is an instinct that is almost a beast!
Beasts, who treat those who violate themselves, have always repaid them with fangs and claws, and have always sacrificed their lives to protect those who are close to them!
Perhaps, it was this kind of purity that made Li Lao feel a little sorry for this poor man, frowned slightly, and seemed to be making a difficult decision, and after a long time, he said, "You go!"
"Let's go?"
The man was stunned: "Where should I go?"
"This world is very big, there should always be a place for you, haven't you been bored of being imprisoned here for twenty years?"
Li Lao had a bitter face on his face: "Abandoned by the sky and left behind by the world." Child, your life is too hard, it's time to enjoy life!"
The man was already dumbfounded!
It seemed that there was not much time, Li Lao didn't say anything, just handed a piece of paper and a stack of money to the man, and said: "This is the escape route I have planned for you and the arrangements for you in the future, you will leave tonight, if you continue to stay, you will die!"
As he spoke, he put the box in his arms in front of the man, and said, "This box was obtained by my wife and my wife in the early years when we were exploring a ruin, it is very extraordinary, my wife died for it, it carries my sorrow, and now I will give it to you, it must be a very amazing thing inside! But I don't know what it is, because it is stained with my wife's blood, I can't bear to open it, leave it for you to explore." ā
This qiÄ happened so suddenly that the man never came back to his senses, just stared blankly at the money and paper in his hand, and the quaint box.
Li Lao frowned and snorted: "Silly boy, do you want to stay here and wait for death!?"
In a word, the man was finally drunk!
Looking down and thinking about the days he had spent in this cage all these years, the man finally nodded and agreed, took the box into his arms, looked at Li Lao very seriously, and asked word by word: "Before I leave, grandpa, can you sue me...... Why am I here? Why did everybody do that to me? I ...... Who the hell am I!?"
"You ......"
Li Lao opened his mouth, wanted to speak and stopped, and after a long time, he sighed faintly, and said softly: "There is a shocking secret hidden in your body, even grandpa knows very little, grandpa only knows, you were born in response to the catastrophe, it is a huge family that you can't imagine I created you with my own hands, standing out among more than 2,000 real yĆ n babies, and the genes of several of the strongest races in the primeval world are injected into the body but do not conflict, but act on all parts of your body, which is very strange!" Where is the reason, grandpa has been exploring, but unfortunately to no avail, but it is certain that it will inevitably make you have the unpredictable ability of ghosts and gods, but I don't know whether it is a blessing or a curse. ā
Speaking of this, the corners of Li Lao's mouth brought a trace of bitterness: "Now, I don't know what the reason is, that family has lost patience and wants to use you as a furnace to become a supreme powerhouse, how can grandpa see you being harmed by them......"
Li Lao lowered his head, his cloudy eyes flashed with love, after all, it was his work, how could he have no feelings when he looked at the children who had grown up?
The man was stunned for a moment, frowning thoughtfully: "Born in response to the catastrophe?"
"Yes, you are the perfect warrior created by that huge family to cope with the catastrophe, and you are invulnerable!"
Li Lao closed his eyes lightly, as if he was contemplating, and after a long time, he suddenly said inexplicably: "After the solar calendar 2014, 15 years of light will never come." Humanity will be lost, and the program will collapse...... This is the prophecy left by the great sages of that family in the distant primeval world, and it is a pity that many records have been erased by the years, but it is certain that in the near future, something terrible will happen! This is all I know, whether it is the secret buried in the years or the secret of you, you have to pursue it yourself......"
After finishing speaking, Li Lao stood up: "Okay, it's not early, you should leave." ā
The man didn't move, and suddenly raised his head, with reluctance in his eyes: "Grandpa, you told me, in the outside world, everyone has their own name, and they place their expectations on him." You...... Would you like to name me too?"
Li Lao closed his eyes, but he opened them again in a moment's effort, and a trace of essence flashed in his cloudy eyes, and a kind of momentum broke out on his thin body, and he said slowly: "The one who punishes the heavens, the one who punishes the heavens, dares to kill the emperor with blood and bravery!
The words fell, looked at the man, and said word by word: "Your name is Xingtian, dare to kill the heavens!"
"Xingtian ......"
The man lowered his head and muttered to himself, and after remembering all the words of Li Lao in his heart, he turned into a black shadow and left with a "whoosh", as fast as lightning!
Two seconds later, two screams were heard at the staircase!
Li Lao knew that the two guards had already been killed, and he couldn't help but hang his head and whispered to himself: "Is it right or wrong to put such an inhumane and unruly creature into the red dust?"
The words fell, shook his head and smiled: "Regardless of whether he is right or wrong, I only know that I can't watch my child be killed like this, even if it sets off a monstrous murder in the world, I will bear the cause and effect!
Elder Li knew that if he let Xingtian go, that family would not give up, and if he thought about it, he was afraid that he would not be able to escape this catastrophe!
But...... If you can achieve a nine-day extreme realm, why be afraid of death?!
