MTL - National Star Sea Era-Chapter 1 Fire Awakening
Chapter 1 The Awakening of Fire
Morning Star Principality, Golden Shark Star Territory, White Tower Floating Continent.
Gangwon City, suburbs, ultra-long-range Xinghai launch platform.
With a thousand-meter beam of light rising into the sky, the hundreds of fireships that were parked neatly on the platform a moment ago completely disappeared and were dropped into the unknown distant starry sky.
At the same time, thousands of miles away, Jiangyuan City is one of the five largest cities in Baita Fulu, together with Jiangyuan City.
Jiangyuan City's No. 1 Xinhuo Academy, No. 3 Male Dormitory Building, Song Chi took off his virtual helmet and exited the Baita network.
Nervous emotions appeared on his face. What he just watched was the real-time star sea broadcast of fresh graduates from Xinhuo Academy in Gangwon City.
And the one ranked after Jiangyuan City is Jiangyuan City where he is located. As a fresh graduate of Jiangyuan's No. 1 Xinhuo Academy, in other words, the scene just broadcast on the screen will soon be his turn.
Ultra-long-distance star sea launch and exploration of unknown star sea. How can I not be nervous when I think that I will soon experience both of them personally?
Although he was nervous, there was a trace of expectation deep in his eyes, because this was also a rare opportunity. As long as he could grasp it, it was not impossible to soar into the sky.
This is a great era of the star sea. Millions of years ago, the multiverse was shattered, and the fragments of space and land that remained after countless universes were shattered were scattered in the void of the star sea.
Since then, the multiverse era has ended, and a new era has emerged. The remaining civilizations of all parties call it the Broken Star Sea Era.
These remaining fragments of space and land have also been given a new name over a long period of time - Star Sea and Floating Land.
Soon, civilizations of all races discovered that as the final essence of the fragmented universes in the multiverse era, most star seas and floating lands contained countless rare resources.
In order to compete for these resources, the remaining civilizations of all parties refused to give in, and the entire Broken Star Sea was engulfed in war.
For millions of years, in every corner of the boundless Broken Star Sea, countless civilizations have been destroyed every moment and annihilated in the long river of time. However, at the same time, various new civilizations have begun to spring up like bamboo shoots. .
Human civilization is one of them.
The Xinhuo Civilization is a strong domain. All civilized citizens can use the Xinhuo spaceship to carry out ultra-long-distance interstellar launches when they are 30 years old, and start a journey of exploration of the star sea.
Of course, due to the optimization and advancement of genetic technology, the average life span of Xinhuo citizens has reached 140 years, and today’s 30-year-old is actually equivalent to the age of adulthood.
Since the fire source was ignited more than 300,000 years ago, this has become a rule shared by members of the entire fire human civilization. Legal citizens over 30 years old can try to awaken the fire seed and bind the fire Airship, start exploring the star field.
Scavenge the resources of the alien star sea, strengthen the Xinhuo airship, and sublimate the life level to fight against the increasingly powerful alien civilizations adjacent to the Xinhuo human civilization and defend the Xinhuo human civilization territory.
It can be said that awakening the Fire Seed and controlling the Fire Airship is the most important opportunity in the life of all citizens of the Fire Civilization. Once they successfully awaken and obtain their own Fire Airship, they will immediately become a master.
Even as long as you can strengthen your Fire Ship to a higher level, split the earth and seal the territory in the future, become the Lord of the Star Territory of a vast star field, and have a long life, it is not difficult to step into the ranks of the nobles of the Fire Human Civilization.
Suppressing the strange emotions in his heart, Song Chi stood up, spread his legs in a horse stance, and at the same time raised his hands, palms upward, and slowly opened them.
This is the standard training posture of Daoyin Shu.
According to the official authoritative data of the Xinhuo human civilization, this set of guidance techniques developed by the Xinhuo human civilization over tens of thousands of years can not only strengthen the body and promote the sublimation of life levels, but also effectively improve the level of Xinhuo. The success rate of awakening. Before the age of 30, the higher the level of Daoyin Shu practice, the greater the chance of successfully awakening the Seed of Fire.
As for why the age for awakening the Fire Seed is set at 30 years old.
It's very simple. Based on the average life span of 140 years, awakening the Fire Seed at the age of 30 and controlling the Fire Airship will not only give people enough time to practice the guidance technique, but also greatly increase the chance of awakening the Fire Seed. At the same time, learning the basic knowledge of the Star Sea will not be left behind, effectively reducing the mortality rate after successfully awakening the Fire Seed and subsequently exploring the alien star field.
The remaining hundred years are completely enough to strengthen the Xinhuo Airship in the future and further sublimate one's own life level. It can be said that it kills three birds with one stone.
…
Three hours later, Song Chi ended his practice.
After more than twenty years of continuous practice, his guidance level has already reached level 4. If he wants to improve it, it will no longer be possible in a short time.
It was already dark outside now, and he had no intention of continuing to practice. After washing himself, he went straight to bed.
Tomorrow is the day when the fire awakens, and nourishing the spirit is more important than anything else.
…
The next day, the playground of Jiangyuan No. 1 Xinhuo Academy.
The awakening ceremony has begun early.
"Zhang Lili, the fire awakening was successful, the quality is "colorless", the next one is Zhou Pengfei."
As the White Tower Xinhuo Bureau operator's voice sounded, the hundreds of students below the awakening stage reacted in different ways.
Some people sighed softly, but most people still had envy in their eyes.
Although all legal citizens of the Xinhuo Civilization can try to awaken the Seed of Xinhuo at the age of 30, the success rate of awakening is actually not high. Based on the average success rate of the No. 1 Xinhuo Academy in Jiangyuan City in previous years, ten students Being able to awaken four of them is considered very good.
This is still the first Xinhuo Academy in Jiangyuan where elites gather. The success rate of other Xinhuo Academy in the city will only be lower.
Among the crowd, Song Chi, like most people, was envious in his heart and clenched his fists, feeling extremely nervous.
“It’s been thirty years, everything depends on today.”
Thinking about it, the announcement sounded again.
“Zhou Pengfei, Xinhuo Awakening failed, the next one...”
"Zhao Yunfeng, the fire awakening was successful, and the quality is "colorless"."
…
As each student succeeds or fails, it soon becomes the turn of Song Chi’s Class 5 of Ten Years. “Next, Sun Hao.”
Hearing the sound, the figure standing next to Song Chi, who was nearly two meters tall and looked like a black bear, trembled.
Seeing this, Song Chi gently patted the other party's shoulder to signal him to relax.
“Haozi, come on.”
The sturdy man named Sun Hao was one of the few best friends of Song Chi in the school.
Sun Hao nodded lightly and stepped towards the awakening stage.
After a while.
"Sun Hao, the fire awakening was successful, and the quality is "white"."
After a while, there were bursts of exclamations from the group of students.
As we all know, they are also awakened fire seeds, but the quality of fire seeds is divided into different categories. Colorless is the lowest, followed by white, then blue, purple, etc.
Don’t look at the fact that white is only the second to last qualification, but only one awakened person may appear among dozens of people. As for qualities like blue and purple, the probability of awakening is extremely low.
Song Chi had a smile on his face, feeling sincerely happy for his best friend.
As expected, as soon as Sun Hao stepped off the stage, he was quickly greeted by friendly greetings from many classmates. Even those who had barely said hello a few times in the past ten years also gathered around him, hoping to deepen their friendship.
I don’t blame everyone for being philistine. In fact, Sun Hao at this moment can indeed be called a piece of cake.
Small financial groups, chambers of commerce, families and other forces from the outside world are definitely willing to invest in white-quality fire seeds. As long as Sun Hao nods his head and signs a legal investment agreement, he will soon receive a large sum of money. By investing in resources to strengthen the Fire Ship, the subsequent improvement rate of its Fire Ship will be much faster than that of other Awakened Ones.
After all, the initial level of the Xinhuo Airship is 0, and the subsequent upgrade and strengthening of each component will consume a lot of resources. Without sufficient financial support, the upgrade speed will be extremely slow.
“Next, Song Chi!”
After four consecutive people failed to awaken, it was finally Song Chi’s turn.
Beside him, Sun Hao also gave him a cheering look.
Song Chi took a deep breath, suppressed the tension in his heart, and stepped towards the awakening stage.
On the high platform, under the guidance of the Xinhuo Bureau personnel, Song Chi stretched his right hand towards the dark flame in front of him.
The dark flame is called the "Source of Fire". Although it is not the original fire in the core star field of human civilization, it is still separated from it. It can assist the human body in awakening the Seed of Fire and increase the success rate of awakening.
Song Chi felt that his right palm was surrounded by warmth. It seemed like just a moment, and it seemed like ten thousand years had passed. When he felt a stabbing pain in his right hand, his closed eyes reopened.
Before he could react, the sound of announcement had already reached his ears.
"Songchi, the firewood awakened successfully, and the quality is "colorless"."
Stepping down from the awakening stage, Song Chi felt a mixture of emotions in his heart, including joy and sorrow.
I am happy that I have successfully awakened the Seed of Fire. The path to transcendence will be smoother in the future, and the efforts of the past thirty years have not been in vain.
What worries me is the quality of the fire. As the lowest level of fire, the colorless fire seed has a very low upper limit. It is okay in the early stage, but if the quality cannot be improved, then as time goes by, the strengthening of the fire ship will be inevitable. will come to a standstill, blocking his subsequent extraordinary path.
“Hiss!”
While he was thinking wildly, a burning sensation suddenly came from his chest. Song Chi's eyes narrowed as he thought of something, and he thought to himself at the same time.
“It’s the Xinghai Market Order that’s getting hot. What’s going on? This is the first time this has happened in 30 years.”
He returned to the class team with a face full of doubts. However, in the eyes of outsiders, he looked like he was lost.
“Brother Chi, don’t think too much, the quality of Fire Seed can be improved, it’s nothing if it’s colorless…”
Sun Hao only thought that Song Chi had been hit, and hurriedly spoke to comfort him.
Song Chi shook his head gently, indicating that he was fine. He was not forcing a smile, he really didn't care too much.
The moment the results of Colorless Fire Seed came out, he was indeed a little disappointed in his heart, but he quickly came around.
As Sun Hao said, the grade of the Fire Seed can be improved. Although it is extremely difficult and requires the consumption of extremely rare special resources, as a time traveler, he has the confidence to slowly improve the grade of his Fire Seed. .
Yes, he is a time traveler, and he came through the womb.
At this moment, what he was curious about was the Xinghai Market Order hanging on his chest.
As the initiator of his own time travel, he was reincarnated from the Blue Star in his previous life. Over the past thirty years, he has been extremely certain that this Star Sea Market Token is his golden finger.
How could he not care when he thought that his golden finger was undergoing unknown changes?
Out of curiosity, Song Chi couldn't take it out and see what was going on in public. Fortunately, it didn't take long for the burning sensation to slowly dissipate.
About half an hour later, the awakening ceremony for all fresh graduates of Jiangyuan First Academy was completed.
There are more than 600 students in total, and not even 200 people have successfully awakened the Fire Seed.
Cries, laughter, exclamations, wailings... The whole square was in an uproar for an instant, some were happy and some were sad.
After all, from now on, the life trajectories of the two groups of people will be completely different.
