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.
As a thousand-meter light beam soared 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.
The No. 1 Xinhuo Academy in Jiangyuan City, Male Dormitory Building No. 3, Song Chi took off his virtual helmet and exited the White Tower 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.
The one ranked behind 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 It's his turn.
Ultra-long-range star sea launch and exploration of the unknown star sea. How can I not be nervous when I think that I will soon experience these two in person?
While 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 shattered universes 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 the universe have acquired a new name over a long period of time - Star Sea Floating Land.
Soon, civilizations of all races discovered that as the final essence of the shattered 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 sea of broken stars, countless civilizations have been destroyed every moment and annihilated in the long river of time, but similarly, various new civilizations have also They started to spring up like bamboo shoots.
Human civilization is one of them.
In the powerful Xinhuo Civilization Domain, all civilized citizens can carry out ultra-long-distance interstellar launches through the Xinhuo spaceship at the age of 30, 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 Seed 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 Source. Seed, bind the fireship, and 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 awakened successfully and obtains his own Fire Airship, he will Become a master now.
As long as you can strengthen your Fire Ship to a higher level, you can split the earth and seal the territory in the future, become the star domain lord of a vast star field, have a long life, and enter the Fire Human Civilization Joining the ranks of the nobility is not difficult.
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 a standard training posture for 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 It increases the chance of success in awakening the Seed of Fire. Before the age of 30, the higher the level of Guiding Technique, 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 use the Fire Seed to control the Fire Seed. While the awakening probability is greatly increased, the learning of 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 lv4. If he wants to improve it, it can no longer be achieved in a short time.
It was already dark outside now, and he had no intention of continuing to practice. After washing up, he went directly 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 is successful, the quality is "colorless", the next one is Zhou Pengfei."
As the white tower fire fire bureau operator's voice sounded, the person below the awakening stage Hundreds of students had different reactions.
Some people sighed softly, but most people still showed 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 If you can awaken four of them, it's pretty good.
This is the first Xinhuo Academy in Jiangyuan where elites gather. The success rates 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.
"Thirty years, everything depends on today."
Thinking to my heart, the announcement sounded again.
"Zhou Pengfei, the fire awakening failed, the next one..."
"Zhao Yunfeng, the fire awakening was successful, the quality is "colorless"."
......< br>
As each student succeeds or fails, it soon becomes the turn of Song Chi’s Class 5, Ten Years. "Next, Sun Hao."
Hearing the sound, the figure 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 Song Chi's few best friends in the school.
Sun Hao nodded slightly and stepped towards the awakening stage.
After a while.
"Sun Hao, the fire awakening is successful, and the quality is "white"."
For 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.
Although white is only the second to last qualification, only one awakened person may appear among dozens of people. As for qualities like blue and purple, the probability of awakening is extremely low.
A smile appeared on Song Chi's face, sincerely happy for his best friend.
Unsurprisingly, 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 understanding. A bit of friendship.
Don’t blame the philistines, in fact, Sun Hao at this moment can indeed be called a piece of cake.
The small consortiums, chambers of commerce, families and other outside forces 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 get it. A considerable investment in resources to strengthen the Fire Ship will enable the subsequent improvement of its Fire Ship to be much faster than other Awakened Ones.
After all, the initial level of the Xinhuo Airship is 0, and the subsequent upgrade and strengthening of each component will require a lot of resources. Without sufficient financial support behind you, the upgrade speed will be extremely slow.
“Next, Song Chi!”
After four consecutive people failed to awaken, it was finally Song Chi’s turn.
Next to 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 "Seed of Fire". Although it is not the original fire in the core star field of human civilization, it is 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 there was a stabbing pain in his right hand, his closed eyes reopened. .
Before he could react, the announcement was heard.
"Song Chi, the Fire Awakening was successful, and the quality is "colorless"."
Stepping off the awakening stage, Song Chi felt mixed feelings in his heart, a mixture of joy and sorrow.
I am happy that I have successfully awakened the Seed of Fire, and my path to transcendence will be smoother in the future. The efforts of the past thirty years have not been in vain.
The worry is about the quality of the fire. As the lowest level of fire, colorless fire seeds have 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 fire will become worse. The strengthening of the fire flying ship will surely come to a standstill, blocking his subsequent path to transcendence.
“Hiss!”
While he was thinking wildly, a burning sensation suddenly came from his chest. Song Chi, who thought of something, narrowed his eyes and thought to himself at the same time.
“It’s the Xinghai market order that is 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 confused look on his face, but in the eyes of outsiders, he looked like he was lost.
"Brother Chi, don't think too much, the quality of the Fire Seed can be improved, and it doesn't matter if it is colorless..."
Sun Hao only thought that Song Chi had been hit, and hurriedly spoke comfort.
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 level 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 is confident that he can slowly increase his Fire Seed. The grade of the seed is improved.
Yes, he is a time traveler, and he came through the womb.
What he was curious about at the moment was the Xinghai Market Order hanging on his chest.
As the initiator of his own time travel, he came from the Blue Star in his previous life. Over the past thirty years, he has been extremely certain that this Xinghai Market Order is his golden finger.
How could he not care when he thought that his golden finger was undergoing unknown changes?
Curious, Song Chi couldn't take it out to see what was going on in public. Fortunately, it didn't take long for the burning sensation to slowly dissipate.
After another half hour or so, the awakening ceremony for the entire Jiangyuan First Academy’s fresh graduates 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, 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.
