The slightest rain hit his face, giving Zhao Cheng a cold feeling, which made him shiver.

The weather at this time is actually not cold, but his body is getting worse and worse, especially in the past few years, which is visible to the naked eye.

Perennial wandering, hollowed out his body, he through the glass of the shop on the street, reflected a little blurred shadow, because he rarely took care of it, so the hair is very long, in his thirties, the hair is already gray, he looks like this, to say that he is more than fifty, and some people must believe it.

In a trance, Zhao Cheng remembered the dream just now, everything was like yesterday, and it was like a world away.

After that, Zhao Cheng glanced at the sky dome, and could see that there was a vague aura above, that was the City of Clouds, the real City of Clouds, as for the lower city where he stood, it was actually not recognized.

The war has changed so many things.

More than a decade ago, the two most powerful nations went to war, and in the end, both were defeated, and instead came out victorious, but instead rose to the fore and formed an alliance to create the deformed world we have today.

Company by company, city by city, for the company, people are only divided into useful and useless, useful, sign a contract that can be called a slave contract, not only sell themselves, but also sell their children and grandchildren, and for generations to come, they are all company people.

And useless, how can there be really useless things in the world, even if it is a piece of waste paper, it has its value, yes, those seemingly useless people, were exiled to the lower city, limited resources, poor living environment, and a little hope to become a company person, in this case, the people in the lower city, not only can be used as a spur for comparison, let the company people work harder, but also can provide a steady stream of new blood for the company.

For a long time, for this post-war world, although Zhao Cheng grew up here, he is actually more like a ghost.

This world also feels very strange to him, the two kingdoms that each control half of the world, say defeat, and the final fruits of victory are stolen by the company, everything is coincidental like a script.

At the same time, after the war, the science and technology tree also began to be crooked, gene technology and prosthetic technology in parallel, some people still believe in the body, but some people choose a stronger steel, as early as ten years ago, the propaganda of flesh and blood is even more powerful, and many companies have jointly launched prosthetic loans, which makes many people tempted.

But in the end, the ending was not good, the original prosthetic body was not stable, many people had problems in the spiritual aspect, and those reformers, sacrificed themselves and took on debts, while the company reaped wealth, as well as valuable experimental data, win-win, the company directly won twice.

Zhao Cheng wandered around the city, the deep night, the sporadic lights, made him forget himself.

It's not that he hasn't had the idea of settling somewhere, but whenever he settles down, loneliness and pain, like a poisonous snake, tear at his heart.

Only when he wanders in the silent world can there be so much peace in his heart.

Zhao Cheng is rummaging through a hundred treasure chests, of course, this is a saying in the industry, which is easy to understand, it is a trash can.

It's the same lower city, but between the lower city and the lower city, there is also a gap between the rich and the poor, more than ten years earlier, you can still get food through the treasure chest, at that time, it was also the era when there were the most wanderers, and every treasure chest, there was competition.

But in the future, when resources are getting tighter and tighter, there is no such good thing.

If you want to wander, you need a little skill.

For example, Zhao Cheng has mastered the rough chip repair technology, limited by the tools, and his own technical level, the success rate of his repair is not high, but thanks to his raw materials, they are all opened from the treasure chest, but they will not starve to death.

In fact, with his technical level, if he is willing to work for others, in a place like the lower city, basic decency can still be had.

After the war, the local education system in Xiacheng completely collapsed, and more than 70 percent of the new generation, more than 70 percent of the people, were able to read and write normally.

Zhao Cheng, as a college student who has studied for one year, is undoubtedly considered to have received higher education in this era.

As for his maintenance skills, he learned it from another wanderer when he was about to starve to death, and that wanderer's previous identity was a professor at a well-known university, the powerful kind, and later became a wanderer because his wife died of illness, and as for children, he had no children, he was a Dink family.

After the death of his wife, the professor became a little crazy, to be precise, he could not find the anchor of life, nor could he find the meaning of life, so he began to wander.

Follow-up and Zhao Cheng encountered, to be precise, they had met a long time ago, and they all knew a little about each other, and when Zhao Cheng was about to starve to death, he met each other again and was picked up by the professor.

However, the two wandered together for about a year, and the professor died of illness because he was too old.

Zhao Cheng inherited the professor's set of simple repair tools, and did not follow the professor's advice to start a new life, and now he is used to life, or rather, wandering is his anchor point.

As for now, time has passed, and technology is constantly being updated, but fortunately, in places like Xiacheng, technology is updated very slowly, and some civilian products in Shangcheng, the things inside, Zhao Cheng is completely incomprehensible.

Sometimes, Zhao Cheng is also thinking that maybe it won't be long before he will be completely eliminated by the world, but this is not necessarily a good thing, he actually doesn't have the desire to live forever.

Compared with being eliminated, Zhao Cheng feels that it is more likely that he will not survive that time.

At present, he has clearly felt that the fire of his life is beginning to be dying.

In the past, he dreamed of the past and Zhao Xiaoxiang, but not so often.

It is said that when people are about to die, they will dream of the past more and more frequently, and Zhao Cheng thinks that his death omen star is probably already shining in the sky.

……

"Congratulations, you've qualified for the Dream Race, and if you win, you can achieve the dream you crave most, even if it's empty."

"Of course, you can give up, but fate will never favor the same person twice."

Zhao Cheng looked at the almost perfect girl in front of him, with fair skin, delicate facial features, wearing gorgeous clothes, black hair like a waterfall, to say that the only flaw is that there is no emotion in her eyes, just like a doll.

"Can you raise the dead?"

Zhao Cheng asked.

"It's easy."
