Chapter 1 The Last Time
In 2161 A.D., a meteor came from the vast universe to the Blue Star, and on that night more than ninety percent of the world's countries and human beings disappeared, and the day of this catastrophe was called the Night of the Stars.
Seven years later, the former city of Yun Province, once a city full of high-rise buildings, has long disappeared, leaving only a huge bottomless hole, the dark hole is like the entrance to hell to the world.
A hundred miles away, a city floating in mid-air and exuding colorful light - Falling Star City.
There are 10 cities of different styles below the Falling Star City, and the 10 cities are distributed in turn around the Falling Star City in the sky.
Nine Cities, every street in the city is deserted, except for Ninth Avenue, where one-third of the people in the city live.
Here you can see the towering buildings and the streets are bustling with people, as if everything was back before the night of the stars.
In the center of Ninth Avenue is a tall building made entirely of special alloys, which is said to be so strong that even previous hydrogen bombs could not do any damage to it.
Early in the morning, the area around the Nine Cities Super Power Center was crowded with people, most of them with excitement and excitement on their faces, and a few with sad faces.
A man in his mid-20s in his mid-20s with neat short hair in plain clothes looked so ordinary in the crowd, the only difference was that the man's expression was always indifferent.
Li Ran looked at the Super Energy Center, couldn't help but clench his fists and slowly let go, and followed the crowd into the Nine Cities Super Energy Center.
All 16 floors of the Nine Cities Super Ability, of which the first to third floors are designed for ordinary people to awaken the Super Power, as for the rest of the floors, only the Super Powers know what they do, Li Ran's goal is the Awakening Hall on the first floor, it should be said that everyone's goal is the Awakening Hall.
There were 10 silver-white machines distributed in the hall of the Awakening Station, and there were many people lining up in front of each machine, and Li Ran walked to a place where there were fewer people and silently lined up behind.
β¦β¦
Half an hour later, Li Ran took out a metal card from his clothes, and a nine was engraved in the upper right corner of the card.
This is Li Ran's identity card, which not only records Li Ran's personal information, but also the contribution points are stored in the identity card.
After the night of the stars, human society collapsed, and many things that used to be useless in this era, contribution points are equivalent to the previous money, but contribution points are far more important than money and more difficult to obtain than money.
Li Ran put the ID card in a groove on the machine, and the screen of the machine immediately appeared: "Name: Li Ran."
Gender: Male
Age: 21 years old
Contribution points: 1311
Γber: None"
Li Ran skillfully operated on the machine, and then a sentence appeared on the screen: "There is only one last chance left for your awakening, are you sure to apply for awakening!" β
Li Ran did not hesitate to point to the point.
A second later, there were only 311 contribution points left in the ID card.
It takes 1,000 contribution points to apply for awakening, and most people can save 1,000 contribution points in three years, but Li Ran has applied for awakening 9 times in three years, and this is the 10th and last time.
After the contribution points are deducted, the phrase "Please go to Awakening Room 21 immediately" appears on the screen.
Li Ran put away his identity card and walked towards the second floor.
Coming to the second floor, Li Ran, who had 9 times of experience, came to the No. 21 Awakening Room with ease.
Li Ran inserted his identity card into a slot on the metal door of the awakening room, and the metal door opened with a bang.
Entering the awakening room, a cold electronic voice came: "Starlight will appear in three minutes, please put on a receiving suit, and kindly remind you not to wear other clothes in order to ensure the reception of Starlight." β
When he took off his clothes, he saw scars of different sizes all over Li Ran's entire body, and several of them had faint blood overflowing.
Li Ran put on the receiving suit and quietly waited for the star energy after three minutes.
After the stars, the survivors found a special stone called the Star Stone in the place where the meteor fell, and through the Star Stone, some people had incredible special abilities, and these people were called Superpowers.
At first, people hated and excluded the superpowers, treating them as monsters, but after an accident, people's attitudes towards the superpowers changed, until everyone wanted to be superpowers.
For the next period of time, people went crazy looking for star stones, but the number of star stones was too small, and every star stone that appeared would trigger a fight.
That period was the most chaotic, and it didn't stabilize until the establishment of Falling Star City, and then it developed to the present.
Three years ago, Falling Star City discovered star energy, which is an energy that can replace the star stone to help people awaken, but star energy is not 100% awakened superpower, only two or three out of 1000 people can awaken superpower, but compared to the few star stones, star energy is the hope of most people.
Three minutes were soon there, and the awakening chamber was flooded with bursts of blue light.
At the moment when Star Energy appeared, the receiving suit worn on Li Ran suddenly tightened, and an invisible suction force appeared on the receiving suit, attracting Star Energy in the awakening room.
After absorbing the star energy in the awakening room, tiny spikes emerged from the inside of the receiver suit and pierced into the skin on Li Ran's body, and these spikes were so thin and small that he didn't feel any pain.
Then blue liquid appeared at the tip of the spike, and this blue liquid slowly flowed to Li Ran's heart.
Li Ran felt warm and comfortable all over his body, and remembered that he screamed out comfortably when he first woke up.
As the last drop of blue liquid flowed into his heart, Li Ran's whole body emitted a faint blue light, and the scars on his body that were bleeding scarred in an instant, and even the previous scars were much lighter.
When the blue light on his body dissipated, a trace of unwillingness appeared on Li Ran's cold face: "Failed, even this time, this last time I failed to awaken the super power." β
Awakening through star energy, everyone has 10 chances, after 10 times, the human body can no longer absorb star energy, generally speaking, the first awakening, the human body can absorb the most star energy, the later absorb the less.
Li Ran had one of the most important reasons to become a superpower, but now ......
Li Ran was stunned for a long time, until the awakening room sounded: "The awakening time is over, please leave the awakening room." β
Li Ran, who heard the voice, also came back to his senses, put on his clothes, turned around and walked out of the awakening room, his eyes were confused.
As soon as Li Ran walked out of the awakening room, he faintly heard a cry, and followed the sound to see a young woman squatting on the ground, covering her face with her hands and trembling slightly, obviously she also failed to awaken, and I don't know if she will continue to apply for awakening.
However, no one should awaken 10 times like him, and most people can only save up 1,000 contribution points in three years, so you can imagine how many contribution points Li Ran has spent in the past three years.
When he was about to leave Ninth Avenue, several men blocked the intersection, led by men dressed in black, with an iron cane in his right hand, and looked at Li Ran with complicated eyes.
