Initial Volume: Their Encounter Prologue: An ordinary futuristic world, and a man who is afraid of trouble

Next Chapter

Year 2335.

Three hundred years have passed since mankind acquired interstellar navigation technology. Curiosity and excitement about the new world have prompted countless humans to embark on a journey to open up the universe and find new habitable planets. In the first fifty years, humanity's footprint began with the planet of origin and expanded in all directions of the universe.

The process of exploring new and unknown worlds is exciting. Unlike those who can only succumb to the surface of the planet and compete for the limited resources, the universe is infinitely vast, and the resources here have no owner, and as long as they are discovered, they can be claimed ownership. Under the banner of the New Age of Discovery, countless adventurers piloted spaceships with distinctive personal imprints, and with the fearless spirit of fearlessness, they marched into the dark deep space where no one knew what would lie ahead, in search of the hope of getting rich overnight, although the possibility was slim but real.

As humanity became more and more extensive, it was finally the first intelligent beings to come into contact with other intelligent beings that also lived in the galaxy.

It was a civilization far more advanced than humans, and unlike humans who had just entered the age of space, that race began to explore the universe thousands of years ago.

The sudden appearance of a powerful alien civilization made human civilization very nervous for a while, but with the goodwill released by the other party, human beings gradually accepted the reality that the other party was indeed much more developed than themselves, and began to actively integrate into each other's society, learn from each other, and then quietly try to surpass.

Alien civilizations that are good teachers have brought humanity into a wider world, and a transgalactic organization called the Galactic Council has entered the human sphere. Humanity has become the ninety-eighth legitimate member of the Galactic Council, which means that in this vast galaxy with a diameter of hundreds of thousands of light-years, humanity is the ninety-eighth budding civilization that has achieved inter-universe navigation and has been discovered by higher civilizations.

Suddenly exposed to such a vast world, the worldview of all human beings has undergone a baptism of tearing down and rebuilding. But humans are very adaptable creatures, and after the shock, they quickly accepted the status quo and began to feel genuinely excited that they were not alone in the universe.

In the next two hundred years, with the help of the stargate technology provided by the friendly civilization that first encountered, human beings officially stepped into the interstellar world and became an insignificant speck in the vast sea of stars.

In the process of continuous development, the original concept of the state was gradually diluted, and human beings were spontaneously divided into three organizations with different ideas. They are-

Focusing on industry and commerce, it believes that the Evolver is only a civilian with superpowers, and does not limit whether the leader must be an Evolver's industrial and commercial association.

With human evolution as the noble goal, the status of researchers is higher than that of evolutionists.

An alliance of evolutionaries who believe that the Evolvers are the chosen ones, inherently superior, and should rule over the commoners.

Evolutionary. This is a term specific to people with superpowers. Before the start of the space age, humanity first ushered in an evolutionary frenzy of large-scale superpower awakening, and during that time, a large number of humans awakened their superpowers for some reason. This group of people with superpowers is the Evolvers.

Although later, when human beings really entered the interstellar world and came into contact with other civilizations, they found that superpowers were not only unique to human beings, but the common practice of the whole universe, and other civilizations were also accustomed to calling this ability "psionic energy", but the title of superpowers and evolutionaries has been deeply rooted in the concept of human beings, and it is difficult to change.

After three hundred years of continuous research, mankind has mastered a mature method of exercising superpowers. Awaken, consolidate, strengthen, sublimate, and finally, use superpowers to realize your own authenticity.

Of course, not everyone has the qualifications to awaken superpowers and become evolutionaries. In other words, it is precisely because of this that humanity has split into three different forces. Whether it is Olympus or the Evolutionary Alliance, in their society, the social status of the evolutionary is higher than that of the commoners, and only the Chamber of Commerce and Industry treats the evolutionary and the commoner equally, because their manufacturing technology is the strongest, relying on the power of science and technology, even ordinary people without superpowers can exert their combat effectiveness that is not inferior to that of the evolutionary.

That's right, it's combat effectiveness, and in the unpredictable interstellar world, combat effectiveness is the only criterion for measuring the strength of a force.

In the interstellar world, although there is a galactic council, large-scale clashes of civilizations will not occur, but there is no law and morality to follow in the universe, and in the background, small-scale wars and conflicts have never stopped for a moment. In order to protect one's own interests, no matter which force it is, it must have the strength to protect its people from being oppressed by other external forces.

There is no time to be quiet, but someone is carrying the weight for you, this famous saying is not wrong no matter what era it is.

The universe is infinitely vast, and the Milky Way is just a corner of the vast universe, and beyond the Milky Way, there are countless galaxies. Obviously, there are civilizations in other galaxies, but the distance between galaxies is often very far, and there is no dead space in between, which makes it very difficult for galaxies to communicate with each other. Only extremely advanced civilizations have the ability to make space jumps between different galaxies, and the races with this ability are also known as "interstellar nobles".

Although galaxies provide a space for civilization to survive, they are also like transparent glass bottles, limiting the scope of civilization activities living in them. Only by being promoted to the "Star Aristocrat" can you have the ability to escape the restrictions of the "glass bottle" of the galaxy and gain true freedom.

So far, the Galactic Council has only had contact with two intergalactic nobles, who call themselves the "Protoss" and the "Starry Saintess".

Of course, the interstellar nobles can name themselves whatever they want, and the Galactic Council dares to talk nonsense, of course, it is recorded word for word.

And our story unfolds in the context of such an exciting era.

——————————————————————————————

On November 15, 2335, the first galaxy of mankind, the solar system, revolved around the fourth planet called the Sun, which was named Mars.

After hundreds of years of environmental modification, Mars has long become a habitable planet. After the origin twin planets, Earth and Blue Moon, were transformed into tourist attractions and were no longer used as habitable planets, Mars was given many special meanings because of its proximity to the origin planet.

This is the closest habitable planet to the planet of human origin, and many important institutions, including the Galactic Council's Office of Human Civilization, have moved their headquarters to Mars after the three major human forces jointly proposed to protect the planet of origin. To put it simply, the status here is equivalent to the South Second Ring Road of Beijing in the 21st century, Lujiazui in Shanghai, with crowded population and high housing prices, but it is also a condensation of the most essential part of human civilization.

Having a suite here is the lifelong pursuit of many human beings. Regrettably, 99.9 percent of the people ended up taking this dream to their graves, and they never saw the light of day until they died.

But sometimes, there are people who are born to stand at the finish line that others need to look up to for a lifetime. This is fate, and no one can recognize it.

For example, our protagonist has his own real estate on Mars at a young age.

———————————————————————————————

Chu Yuesheng, a name that sounds very ordinary at first glance. If it weren't for the fact that his surname was Chu and the two words Yuesheng would become "Sheng" when combined, this name would indeed be quite ordinary.

I live in the center of Mars Central City, in a good location, and eight streets away is the headquarters of the United Government of Mankind. In a city where every inch of land is at a premium, being able to own a property of your own so close to the coalition government is not something that ordinary people can do.

But...... There are exceptions to everything, unfortunately, Chu Yuesheng is this so-called "ordinary family". He really doesn't have much to say about his property other than this three-storey duplex villa.

This suite was the last adult gift from his long-sighted explorer mother, who had asked him if he would like to go to the interstellar world and find the boundary of this universe with her. Of course, Chu Yuesheng, who couldn't understand the fun of cosmic exploration at all, refused Chu's mother's invitation without hesitation, saying that he would prefer to nest in the civilized world and be a little salted fish that occasionally turns over and is happy every day.

So there was this house, and a letter of farewell. In the letter, Chu's mother said that she was about to leave this galaxy and go to other galaxies to explore. And with the current level of research and development of the warp engine of the Galactic Council, it may take thousands or even tens of thousands of years to cross the dead space between galaxies and galaxies, Chu Yuesheng didn't think that he could live that long, so by the time Chu Ma finished this journey and woke up again, I am afraid that Chu Yuesheng would not even have a handful of loess left.

Chu Yuesheng can be regarded as an ordinary person, with ordinary appearance, ordinary education, ordinary physique, and a little superpower.

In this era of supernatural energy development has been systematically developed and evolutionaries are everywhere, about 30% of human beings can naturally manifest their own "personal reality" and thus obtain their own supernatural power.

There are various types of superpowers, and even if they are the same type of superpower, they often show completely different characteristics due to different development priorities, different depths of understanding of the application of superpowers, and the strength of individual mental power. It can be said that the superpowers of every superpower person are unique.

Chu Yuesheng's superpower is the "butterfly effect".

"A butterfly in the Amazon rainforest of South America, with an occasional flap of its wings, can cause a tornado in Texas, USA, two weeks later. This is the most common elaboration of the butterfly effect, and it is also the truest portrayal of Chu Yuesheng's superpowers.

Chu Yuesheng can get his own definite result through very small efforts. But all he can be sure of is the beginning and the end, and as for what will happen in the middle, even he doesn't know.

This superpower is not too chicken, but it is definitely not very strong, at least it can't be used directly in combat. Because in the process of moving from the beginning to the end, anything can happen, and there is a possibility of hurting Chu Yuesheng himself, so for the sake of his own life, Chu Yuesheng, who is just an ordinary person, has never thought of using his superpowers to kill any hero.

Chu Yuesheng, who has mediocre academic performance, chose the artificial intelligence major when he applied for the university, which is just like the computer major in the 21st century, and it also belongs to the big road goods with nothing special. Because the results of the college entrance examination were not up or down, Chu Yuesheng studied at an ordinary university that could be regarded as a key point, but in fact, it was not ranked at all, and spent four years there. After graduating from university, Chu Yuesheng, who felt that he did not have any special talent in editing artificial intelligence, wisely gave up the professional knowledge he had learned in the past four years, returned to his home in the central area, and opened a "house of everything" that was entrusted to solve problems.

And our story revolves around this "house of everything".
