Age of Calamity in Swallowed Star

Chapter 1: Age of Cataclysm!

Night.

Pitch black.

The moonlight was bright and clear, falling upon the earth like a bolt of white silk.

Rumble!!

In the wilderness bathed in moonlight, a black python with a body length of fifteen meters crashed heavily to the ground, causing the earth to tremble slightly.

Its body was covered with hideous wounds, and the giant python was on its last breath.

The surrounding land was stained with its blood, a crimson expanse.

In the dark night, a young man in black combat uniform, carrying a long, narrow knife case on his back, leaped down from a boulder.

His figure was agile and nimble, darting through the night.

Lin Ye crouched down, and his sharp combat knife pierced through the python's indestructible head, completely destroying its remaining life force.

Only then did Lin Ye begin to gasp for breath, the deep exhaustion making him unwilling to move.

At the same time.

A clear, electronic synthesized voice sounded in Lin Ye's mind—

[Killed a high-level beast soldier, gained 5 attribute points!]

Hearing this familiar electronic voice, Lin Ye's expression remained unchanged, and he directly ordered in his mind: "Panel, allocate points!"

Buzz!!

A feeling of numbness, like an electric current, appeared out of thin air and quickly flowed through his entire body.

Immediately afterward, strands of power appeared out of nowhere, quickly wandering and filling his body… The feeling of increased strength quickly faded away.

Extending his hands, silently feeling the regained power, Lin Ye narrowed his eyes slightly.

Then, he whispered in his mind: "Open the information panel."

[Name: Lin Ye (Advanced Warrior)]

[Attribute Points: 0]

[Body Technique: Micro-level (Proficiency 55/100)]

[Strength: 4250kg]

[Speed: 62.5m/s]

[Mental Power: Unawakened (Gray)]

[Domain: Unawakened (Gray)]

[Clone: Unawakened (Gray)]

[Memory: Incomplete (Planet-level complete)]

[...]

(Average strength of an adult male human is 100kg, speed is 9m/s)

...

His thoughts swept over strength and speed, and a look of understanding appeared on Lin Ye's face—

"One attribute point increased strength by 50kg and speed by 0.5m/s, not bad."

Lin Ye pondered secretly, also very clear in his heart.

As his own strength increases.

The attribute points gained from killing the same level of monster will also decrease.

The next column, "Mental Power", is built into the panel.

When Lin Ye first saw it, he was very excited.

Moreover, the information he perceived from it:

Consuming a large number of attribute points can completely activate 'Mental Power'.

Afterward, the level can be increased with attribute points or cultivation.

"When I have enough attribute points, I might try mental power."

His consciousness continued to sink down.

The 'Unawakened' in the domain column is also built into the panel.

Like "Mental Power", it is in an unactivated gray state.

This time, Lin Ye perceived that [Domain] needs his own strength to enter a certain level before it can be automatically activated.

He could accept this.

One drink and one peck, taking without paying a price would make him uneasy.

Reborn into this world, Lin Ye deeply believes in one truth—there is no free lunch in the world.

The so-called gift of fate has long been marked with a price.

"Perhaps the lost part of my memory is the price of transmigration."

"It's just that memory can only be complete when it reaches the planet level, I don't know when that will be…"

The evening breeze carried away his sigh and floated into the depths of the wilderness.

Lin Ye picked up the alloy combat knife, looked at the cold light flowing through the blade, and his eyes were firm:

"Instead of sitting idle, I believe more in relying on the combat knife in my hand. In this crisis-ridden age of cataclysm, I will carve out a piece of my own world and protect everything I cherish…"

"Right now, I still need to kill more monsters and first break through to become a War General level martial artist…"

Finally, his consciousness landed on the [Clone] column.

Judging from the perceived information, activating [Clone] also requires a huge number of attribute points.

But the consumption required for this 'clone' is far beyond what Lin Ye can currently afford.

"If I had so many attribute points, I might as well allocate them to strength and speed first, increasing my strength to save my life is more important."

He was not overwhelmed by this information, and still remained clear-headed—

To survive in the age of cataclysm, strength is the foundation of everything.

A touch of anticipation appeared in his eyes: "As for the mental power, domain, and clone behind the information panel, I'll consider them when I'm strong enough…"

Withdrawing his consciousness from the information panel, his cold and calm eyes swept over his right arm.

On his right arm, there was a level badge—an 'Advanced Warrior' badge.

He is now an Advanced Warrior.

Woo~ woo~

The hot night wind swept across the wilderness, and faint roars of monsters could be heard in the distance.

The wind of the wilderness interrupted Lin Ye's thoughts.

He stood beside the python's corpse, pulled out a dagger from his combat uniform's leggings, and quickly began to dissect it.

"Puchi!"

"Whirr!"

...

The simple and unadorned cutting sound was dull and rapid, bringing with it bursts of pungent stench.

Lin Ye was not moved by it at all, his technique was clean and efficient.

He was already familiar with the matter of dissecting materials.

Soon, this Blackscale Vicious Python was dismembered into eight pieces by Lin Ye, and only a pile of flesh and blood remained of its huge corpse.

All the valuable parts were collected by Lin Ye into his backpack—snake eyes, snake gall, snake tongue, snake teeth… he even took the snake whip!

Carrying the slightly heavy backpack, Lin Ye's pair of cold eyes quietly looked into the distance, somewhat lost in thought.

Today is September 16, 2019.

In a blink of an eye, he has already transmigrated to this world for four years.

Gradually, he fell in love with this new life with a family of four, with a father, a mother, and a younger sister.

Compared to his previous life as a lonely and helpless working man.

This life is undoubtedly much happier.

He thought that such a beautiful life could continue forever.

However, disaster struck!

The rampant mutant virus changed the genes of all life.

Mountains, plains, oceans, deserts… one ferocious and brutal monster after another mutated all over the world.

They attacked human settlements, feeding on flesh and blood, and then achieving higher evolution…

In these four years, humans have launched countless large-scale wars against monsters.

As the war continued, humans were defeated again and again, losing both land and people, and were at an absolute disadvantage!

Blood, darkness, madness, turmoil, despair… various emotions quickly bred in all parts of the world, sweeping across like a storm.

The weapons that were once proudly relied upon were also repeatedly frustrated when facing high-level monsters, not only failing miserably.

It even pushed the mutation of monsters to a new height, giving birth to more ferocious monsters!

Large cities fell one after another, turning into human paradises and breeding bases for monsters;

One island nation after another struggled desperately, eventually collapsing in despair;

Pieces of human civilization were trampled under the feet of monsters, wantonly abused and trampled.

In the four years since, humans have fought large-scale battles with monsters.

The world pattern has also undergone earth-shaking changes.

Fortunately, Heaven never seals off all exits.

While monsters were mutating, humans were also evolving.

The martial artist group rose in such a chaotic situation, forming a system of its own.

Although this martial artist system is not very complete, the pioneers on the road of human evolution have been working hard to improve it.

They barely stabilized the war situation that had been defeated by relying on bloody battles and desperate fights.

Despite this, the current situation of mankind is still not optimistic.

Outside the shelters and fortresses.

Various hideous and terrifying monsters are ready to break through the defense line at any time and slaughter humans.

Humans can only continue to increase their strength and struggle to support themselves.

In this world where monsters are rampant and crises are heavy, only strength is the foundation for the continuation of the race.

Therefore, the status of martial artists is very high in human society.

And Lin Ye relied on the attribute panel that he awakened a year ago.

After one life-and-death battle after another with monsters, he has grown into the current advanced warrior.

"In this world where monsters are rampant and humans are in danger, no strength equals a dead end!"

Thinking of his parents who died tragically in order to distract the monsters and give himself and his sister a chance to survive, a faint mist appeared in Lin Ye's eyes.

He gently closed his eyes, and some past events quietly emerged.

Since the virus raged and the cataclysm descended.

Lin Ye has seen too many humans who died tragically in the beast horde.

In such an age of cataclysm, no strength means losing everything.

After a short while, Lin Ye slowly opened his eyes, and a gleam flashed in his eyes: "Therefore, finding a way to improve your strength is the only way!"

"Otherwise, it will be difficult to survive in this world!"

The night was getting darker, and the moon was covered by a thick layer of clouds at some point.

"Mr. Lin Ye, a group of pig-like monsters has been found outside the canyon in the southwest direction of Shelter 057.

Among them, there are two suspected high-level beast soldiers. We don't have enough manpower for the time being, so please go and solve it."

The headquarters prompt that suddenly sounded in the headset interrupted Lin Ye's thoughts.

In today's great cataclysm, the war between humans and monsters is intensifying, and many villages, towns, and cities have been destroyed by the beast tide.

In desperation, the military and martial artists can only build shelters and fortresses everywhere to fight against monsters.

Provide some shelter for the surviving humans.

Despite this, these shelters may be attacked by beast hordes at any time.

And Lin Ye is one of the elite martial artists who was hired by the military from Shancheng City and stationed in the shelter in rotation.

"Received, I will solve it!" Lin Ye flicked the headset with his finger, his voice low.

After that, everything returned to silence.

"Two high-level beast soldiers? Good!"

Under Lin Ye's calm expression, his eyes gradually became hot, and then he started the off-road vehicle.

He stepped on the accelerator to the end.

The off-road vehicle sped forward madly, leaving a long trail of smoke.
