Municipal Library.
The historical area that no one had set foot on for a long time was covered with a thick layer of dust, and a young man was looking for something inside.
"No... not yet..."
The young man muttered to himself, a little disappointed.
Shake his head.
He closed the book.
"brush!"
A twinge.
There were long bloody marks on his hands.
"That's it again..."
The young man smiled bitterly. He had been careful enough, but he didn't expect to be injured by the pages of the book. But he was not surprised. To be more precise, he was used to it.
His name is Chen Feng, he is twenty-two years old, and bad luck has been with him since the day he was born.
He almost choked to death when he drank milk when he was just one year old. His mother passed away when he was three years old, and his father passed away when he was five years old. When he was ten years old, the orphanage he was in closed down, and he was later sent to other orphanages. By the time he reached adulthood, his orphanage had a total of Thirteen companies closed down for various reasons.
In addition, something is bound to happen every time he goes out.
According to his incomplete statistics, so far, he has been blackmailed by old ladies 85 times, had car accidents 36 times, been visited by thieves 76 times, fell into sewers 10 times, and was chased and bitten by dogs 15 times. It is already a miracle that I have survived until now.
In comparison, what happened today was nothing.
The purpose of his coming here today is also to find the legendary 'lucky artifact'.
He doesn't believe this, but what he has experienced since he was a child makes him believe that there is such a thing as luck in this world, and what he has been with throughout his life is bad luck! Therefore, since he was sensible, he has been reading all the myths and biographies, looking for things that can transport things!
Transfer beads, jade carp, four-leaf clover...
He has tried all the things that represent luck, but nothing works!
His bad luck never changed.
Until one day, he saw some written records from the information left by his father during his lifetime - the Stone of Destiny. According to legend, possessing it will change his destiny.
His father is an archaeologist. After studying ancient times all his life, he failed to produce anything valuable. Instead, he passed the exam. There is not much information left about the Stone of Destiny. Over the years, he has been to all kinds of strange places, but he has never seen the so-called Stone of Destiny.
Does that thing really exist
He was doubtful.
He really doesn't have high requirements, he just wants to live like an ordinary person, that's all.
However…
Life
No, just living is already very difficult. Every time he goes out, he must be extremely vigilant. If he relaxes even a little bit, he may die on the way!
For him, the world is a battlefield everywhere.
"where are you?"
Chen Feng sighed, calmly took out alcohol from his schoolbag to disinfect the wound, and wrapped gauze on his hand. As a person who is injured every day, his schoolbag is a small medicine box.
The sky has darkened.
It was time for the library to close. Chen Feng was about to leave. His foot slipped and he stumbled. He hit the bookshelf next to him and a pile of books fell down.
"Numbly."
Chen Feng cursed secretly.
I knew it wouldn't go so well!
He looked at the place where he fell. There were some water stains on the ground. He raised his head and found that the place was in disrepair and the roof was leaking.
"It's really..."
Chen Feng smiled helplessly.
Bad luck is at work again.
He got up with pain all over his body and was about to leave, but he suddenly froze. Among the pile of ancient books that had been smashed down, there was one book that caught his eye.
Title of the book - "Fortune".
"This thing..."
Chen Feng was a little curious. There was actually a book about luck
He carefully opened it, and it contained a large introduction to all kinds of strange fortunes, from cosmic astrology to constellations. Chen Feng had seen many of them in other books. Most of the content was nonsense. This book was more like It's the kind of pirated hodgepodge that costs 20 yuan a copy.
"Sure enough, I'm overthinking it."
Chen Feng laughed at himself and suddenly his expression froze.
Because on the new page he turned to, a name suddenly appeared - Stone of Destiny!
It doesn't matter which ancient books it was pirated from, because the introduction to the Stone of Destiny here is unprecedentedly detailed.
The Stone of Destiny: The legendary transport artifact.
According to rumors, there is a kind of power that is above ordinary power. It is invisible and intangible, but it affects everything. So far, no one knows what kind of power it is. They only know that it may be related to luck, and the Stone of Destiny , has the power to control it!
"really have!"
Chen Feng's mouth went dry with excitement.
Following the introduction and turning to the next page, my eyes suddenly opened wide!
On this page, a picture of the Stone of Destiny appeared. It was also the first time that Chen Feng really saw the appearance of the Stone of Destiny. He was completely stunned.
It was a coin-sized object with some strange patterns on it.
"Is this the Stone of Destiny?"
Chen Feng's voice was trembling, not because of the appearance of this thing, but because of this thing... Chen Feng's hands were shaking and he pulled open his collar, revealing what he was wearing around his neck. It was the Stone of Destiny mentioned in the book!
"How can this be?"
Chen Feng was shocked.
Do you always carry the Stone of Destiny with you
This thing that my father got during archeology, a gift from my father when I was born, and the only relic left by my father to me, is actually the Stone of Destiny? But if it was the Stone of Destiny, how could I be so unlucky
Fake
Or is this an imitation made by his father
Chen Feng endured the sudden shock and continued to look down.
Rumor has it that the Stone of Destiny possesses extraordinary power, but it is not easy to use it. Before the Stone of Destiny is officially activated, it will continue to absorb the surrounding luck. It cannot be opened until it absorbs enough luck. So, if you don't have enough power to activate it, then owning it can be a nightmare for you.
"Depend on!"
Chen Feng couldn't help but curse.
Absorbing the luck around you
His whole body was cold, and he finally understood where his bad luck came from! This stone of destiny dug out by his father from the ancient tomb took away everything he had!
"This thing..."
Chen Feng subconsciously wanted to pull it off, but he couldn't pull it off at all.
This is the only relic left by his father and his only spiritual sustenance. It has never been taken off. Unexpectedly, when I wanted to take it out today, I couldn't take it off at all!
"Can't it be removed by conventional means?"
Chen Feng calmed down and looked down again.
The Stone of Destiny cannot be taken off after being put on. Only after it is activated can you control its power. If you get it accidentally, then activate it.
Immediately afterwards, the activation method is provided.
Chen Feng looked at it and saw that it was not too difficult. He just needed to create a formation with his own blood and then put the Stone of Destiny in the middle.
"So simple?"
Chen Feng frowned slightly.
He didn't feel right, but getting rid of this damn bad luck was too much for him. He even dreamed of throwing it away and living his own life!
"Try it."
Chen Feng pulled off the gauze.
The blood flowed down his fingers, drawing a strange formation on the wooden floor. Chen Feng's face was more serious than ever before. He lay on the ground and placed the Stone of Destiny in it.
"Buzz-"
A strange light flashed.
Chen Feng was in a state of shock.
Done!
The blood-condensed formation turned into a flash of red light, and the Stone of Destiny bloomed with an amazing halo. When Chen Feng was excited, he saw a line of small words reflected in the red light: "When the Stone of Destiny is activated, it will absorb All the luck around you supplements the energy needed to run the Stone of Destiny.”
not good!
Chen Feng's expression changed drastically.
Absorb all the luck? It’s not even written in this damn pirated book! The Stone of Destiny has been absorbed for twenty years without being activated. What will happen if all the luck is absorbed in an instant
He has no idea!
Walk!
Chen Feng turned around and ran out without any hesitation.
However, at this moment, the entire library was shaken.
"boom!"
"boom!"
earthquake!
Before Chen Feng had time to escape, he was submerged by the huge boulders in the sky. His eyes went dark and he lost consciousness. Vaguely, he only remembered the flash of bright golden light on the Stone of Destiny around his neck.
at night.
A news channel.
"At six o'clock this afternoon, a minor earthquake occurred in this city. The city library collapsed on the spot, killing one person. According to the investigation by the relevant departments, it may be related to the shoddy construction... "
…
There was darkness before my eyes.
There was a moment of confusion in consciousness.
for a long time.
Chen Feng's consciousness returned and he slowly opened his eyes. The blurry world became clear, but it was still dark, and there was a strange fishy smell nearby.
"Where is this?"
Chen Feng looked with some doubts.
The surroundings were shrouded in darkness, and the faint light flickering on his wrist could only allow him to see clearly that this was a cave, and there was only darkness further away.
"Strange, am I not dead?"
Chen Feng was shocked.
Looking at the shimmering wristband on my wrist, and then feeling the memory that was completely not my own, I suddenly realized.
He has traveled through time!
He had checked various myths and biographies, and naturally read a lot of novels. Thinking of the golden light before his death, Chen Feng somewhat understood that the Stone of Destiny absorbed all the luck and caused an earthquake, but the successfully activated Stone of Destiny made him After a narrow escape, I traveled here!
"I survived!"
Chen Feng was excited.
Of course he was excited, because the damn bad luck finally disappeared! But, what kind of world is this? At this moment, all the memories of the original owner came back.
Chen Feng flipped through his memories and was immediately amazed.
This world is somewhat similar to Earth but very different. After major breakthroughs in genetic research, the entire world has entered the genetic age. Human beings can not only develop their own potential, but also genetically fuse with genetically mutated organisms. Almost everyone can have genetic abilities!
Some people use these abilities to work and become industry elites. Some people, after merging genes, have super combat power and are called genetic warriors.
The world changes because of this.
The emergence of genetic abilities has brought the entire world into a state of rapid development.
and.
It’s different from the fact that the earth’s resources are close to being exhausted and we have to look for alien planets.
This continent and this planet are mankind’s greatest wealth! This world has its own moon and sun. It is a place very similar to the earth, except for its size! The size of this planet is countless times that of the earth! The continent is vast, more than ten thousand times the size of the earth!
The world has no shortage of resources!
Because so far, the mainland’s development progress is only 18%!
Even if human beings' technological level makes it easy to travel to other planets, there are still many places on this planet that humans dare not set foot in!
For example - the ice fields in the far north!
It is said that the place is affected by some special ability, and time almost stops, and those who step in will never be able to get out! The Genetic Union once sent a small team of genetic warriors there, but there was no news about them forever.
For example - the volcano on top of Burning Sky!
It is said that an ancient mutated beast slept there, and it once drank up a river in one gulp. Since then, it has become a forbidden land for humans.
Similar places abound.
This is a dangerous world, but also a magical world!
Chen Feng's eyes flashed with brilliance.
The world is more wonderful than he imagined!
and…
This is only part of it.
According to the memory of the original owner, the magic of the genetic age has spawned many amazing technological devices.
Some people continue to fuse genes and have super high combat power, while some people have transformed into magical genetic abilities through continuous fusion of genes!
For example - Luo Yuan, the founder of Storm Technology, the world's largest technology company.
His ability is digitized, and the holder can release some mysterious abilities to detect his own genetic state, mental state, and even determine the tricks you have mastered based on the level of muscle memory. He was despised by countless people because of his non-combat type genes.
However, after years of experiments, Luo Yuan extracted those mysterious and mysterious energies and made a wristband that everyone can wear, creating a legend!
Just activate the wristband and you can check your status.
so.
Today, the world is not only the age of genes, but also the age of data!
