Chapter 3: Entrance to the city

Views:

In 3016, Shi Qingyang was sixteen years old, and it was in this year that his life entered the first trough.

Shi Qingyang was born in Xinghuo City, a tertiary city in the southeast of China, which is subordinate to the secondary city Anhang City.

The third-tier city is the smallest city today, but because human beings cannot survive outside the city, although the Spark City is not large, it is home to 500,000 people, most of whom live in the underground city, and their families huddle together in one There are not a few people in the small house of ten square meters.

Shi Qingyang's current life is actually not particularly bad. At least because he is a minor, he can receive 1,500 credit points of relief every month, but before, although his life was not particularly good, in this city Also considered average.

February 24, 3016, was Shi Qingyang's sixteenth birthday. On this day, he was injected with radiation energy medicine and successfully induced radiation energy. Not only that, but after a month's physical examination, he was still alive. It has been tested with good results of double C- for radial energy accommodation and radial adaptability.

Radiation energy is actually the abbreviation of radiation energy. Since the asteroid hit the earth in 2045, the entire earth has been shrouded in intense radiation, and animals, humans, and plants have all died in large numbers. Finally, humans hid underground and built It was only after a special radiation-resistant dungeon that he finally survived.

After human beings finally escaped this disaster, they found that all mammals were basically extinct, and every plant contained radioactive substances, and the only one who adapted to such a harsh environment turned out to be inconspicuous before. of insects.

Insects reproduce fast and evolve fast. They also die in large numbers, but many have adapted to the environment full of radiation and have mutated. After the mutation, insects are alien beasts.

Humans without weapons were vulnerable in front of them. Humans could only use thermal weapons to deal with these exotic beasts until radiation energy was discovered later.

After humans are injured by radiation, some people can produce a kind of violent energy in their bodies. This energy brought by radiation is named radiation energy, which can make the human body stronger.

Just relying on radiation to have radiation energy has a great mortality rate, so later humans have developed radiation energy medicines.

Now, as long as you reach the age of sixteen, you need to go to the hospital to inject radiation energy medicine to induce radiation energy. About 80% of people can induce radiation energy successfully. After success, it is necessary to test radiation energy tolerance and radiation energy adaptability.

Radiation energy tolerance measures how much radiation energy a person can accommodate, and radiation energy adaptability measures how much radiation energy a person can adapt to.

Radiation energy is a very violent force. Historically, there have been countless examples of the collapse of the body because of the inability to control the radiation energy in one's body. Shi Qingyang's previous life was one of the examples.

The worst of these two tests is E-level. People who are both E-levels will never be able to become radiation fighters in their entire lives. The above is D-level, and they may become first- or second-level radiation fighters. The top is C-level, and it is expected to become a third- or fourth-level radiation warrior. B-level may become a fifth- and sixth-level radiation warrior. A-level has the opportunity to become a seventh-level radiation warrior. S-class, and even the legendary SS-class and SSS-class.

Nowadays, some people are born with radiant energy, and the radiant energy accommodation and radiation energy adaptability can reach the S level. These people are undoubtedly the favored people of heaven, and they will never appear in a small third-level city, in Starfire City. , the best physique is only B-level, once someone detects double B-level, they will immediately be sent to a second-tier city...

Under such circumstances, Shi Qingyang can detect a double C- score, which is naturally a good score. With such a score, he can even go to Xinghuo Academy, the best college in Xinghuo City, and learn the application of radiation energy there. .

Nowadays, humans can only cultivate a small number of plants in the city, which cannot meet the food needs of so many people. The source of food is the beasts outside the city, and only radiation warriors can leave the safe area outside the city. Therefore, basically every Everyone wants to be a Radiation Energy Warrior, and so does Shi Qingyang.

Therefore, after receiving the admission letter from Xinghuo Academy, both he and his parents were very happy. His father even had a heartless heart and set aside a small area outside the city, which he planned to use to grow some herbs—after radiation The plants can no longer be eaten, but they can be used to treat radiation damage, and even to make anti-radiation ointments or medicines for conditioning radiation energy.

Shi Qingyang's father is a second-level radiation warrior, and his mother is a junior pharmacist. The two grow herbs outside the city. As long as they are willing to work hard, they will definitely make a lot of money, but no one expected that the herbs they planted would It even attracted alien beasts, first a grasshopper beast, and then a mantis beast...

A second-level Radiation Energy Warrior is simply impossible to be an opponent of the Mantis Beast! When the inspection team from Starfire City arrived, Shi Qingyang's parents had already passed away.

All the family's money has been invested in the medicinal plant, leaving only a part of the living expenses. His parents originally planned to harvest the first batch of medicinal materials before he started school and sell them for his study... Shi Qingyang has just received his parents' double allowance. After the terrible news of his death, he found out that he had to save for school tuition alone.

As for not going to school... If he didn't go to Spark Academy, how would he learn to use radiation energy? How could he kill alien beasts and avenge his parents if he didn't learn how to use radiation energy

Shi Qingyang can't give up going to school, his double C- grades are not enough for the school to take him seriously and reduce his tuition fees. In the end, the only thing he can do is to work and save money...

This was undoubtedly a very gloomy year in his life, and now, he actually came back

Recovering from his memories, Shi Qingyang was a little unsure about the authenticity of all this. He hesitated for a while, looked at the contact terminal in his hand, and then clicked to check the balance.

Every citizen of the Earth Alliance can get a chip bound to himself after birth, which records all the information. This chip is placed in everyone's contact terminal, so that people can use the contact terminal to do many things, such as buy groceries.

18,798 credit points... Shi Qingyang remembered that the annual tuition fee of Xinghuo Academy was 20,000 credit points. Back then, he spent all his efforts to collect 20,000 credit points and paid the tuition, but in the end he had no money to pay the miscellaneous fees, which attracted the ridicule of his classmates, and even Didn't even buy a meal card.

Of course, in his situation at the time, he didn't have the money to eat in the school cafeteria.

Shaking his head and thinking no more, Shi Qingyang walked along the streets of the underground city.

The dungeon is made of steel and stone, and the sky is not visible here, and the lighting relies on sparse street lamps, but everyone is used to such an environment, and they are not uncomfortable.

Shi Qingyang walked along the street. There were not many shops in the underground city. After walking for a while, he saw a shop selling food and water.

Fifteen credit points for a nutritious meal per box, and five credit points for a bottle of water.

In the past, Shi Qingyang would only buy a box of nutritious meals and a bottle of water every day at night. After eating half a box of nutritious meals in the morning, he would not eat until the evening, but this time, he did not feel wronged and bought A box of nutritious meals and a bottle of water, I devoured it and drank half the bottle of water.

After eating and drinking, he became more and more sure that all of this was true. Facing this situation, he was both fortunate and sad.

I am glad that I got a chance to do it again, but I am sad that he never returned to before his parents died.

His parents, who were the only people in the world who would treat him unconditionally, died in the mouth of a strange beast, leaving no bones behind!

And he himself died under the mouth of the alien beast...

The picture of the entire city being destroyed before his death seemed to be in front of him. For a time, Shi Qingyang didn't even know where he was.

Clenching his fists, he ran along the road of the dungeon. Although it had been twenty years, the road he used to run twice a day was still very familiar. It didn't take long before he came to the entrance.

Go up the steps, swipe the contactor at the door to go out, and then come to the ground from the dark underground world.

The buildings on the ground of Starfire City are not high, and there is a semi-circular protective cover above. The protective cover is transparent, but because of the thick anti-radiation paint, it finally becomes translucent, but even so, the relative Compared to the underground city, it is also much brighter here.

The shopping malls, schools, and various guilds of Starfire City are all on the ground. The roads here are still very wide, and some chariots are going back and forth on the road.

Before his parents died, Shi Qingyang had been studying in a nearby school, but after his parents died, he didn't go to school, but found a job washing cars. The place of work was at the west gate of Xinghuo City.

People who have been out of the city will carry radioactive substances on their bodies when they return to the city. They need to clean their radiation protection suits at the door, and naturally they also need to clean their chariots. This work will be exposed to strong radiation. He couldn't do it, and logically he wouldn't do it at his age. After all, the radiation damage was not small, but he was really short of money.

Moreover, this job has another advantage, that is, you can get in touch with the radiation warriors who return to the city. These people often talk about the world outside the city, and even exchange some radiation knowledge. When he was young, he would never give up such a learning opportunity. .

There are countless entrances between the underground city and the underground city of Spark City. In addition to the public passages, the buildings on the ground have basements connected to the underground city, but there are only four gates out of the city and into the city, one in each of the south, south, north and west.

Shi Qingyang lives in the west of the city, and where he works is a car wash at the entrance of the west gate.

The west gate has one exit and one entrance, covering a wide area. There is an entrance square and an exit square. The exit square is mainly for people in the city to make various preparations. Some people sell various radiation-proof products in the shops around the square. Clothing paint and even ointment, there are many car washes and laundry shops in the city square, and some people sell food that is more expensive than the city.

In order to prevent radioactive substances from entering the city and polluting the city, if you want to enter the city, you have to go through a regular passage. Shi Qingyang once again swiped his contact terminal on the machine, walked through the long passage, and then felt a clear The radiant energy also smelled the strange and bloody smell brought by the alien beasts.

All this is very familiar to him.
