She remembered that she was watching a popular science program introducing cutting-edge technology, which mentioned Odega ore and Odega technology, and many infrastructure facilities in the city were related to this technology. ?

It seems that this Odega technology is still one of the core technologies of this world. After arriving in the library, she has to add relevant knowledge to help her understand the world more comprehensively—information is very important , if you want to survive in this world for a long time, you must first understand this world. ?

Luo Yan looked up at the main gate of the school - New Aonan No. [-] Supernatural School, and asked, "Is that engineer also a supernatural person?"?

"That's right, and he's also an extraordinary level supernatural user. The top level of supernatural ability brings far beyond ordinary people's perception ability, excellent architectural knowledge, and unique insights into Odegar's technology... probably also Only a person like him can design a work like the Inverse Corridor."

Luo Yan nodded, thoughtfully.

Because supernatural powers improve individuals in all aspects, including not only physical fitness and reaction ability, but also energy levels, the appearance of supernatural powers affects not only combat, but also all aspects of human beings in this world.

The world seems to be getting more and more interesting. ?

Chapter 17 Causes of Offset

Lu Xiaona's school is called New Aonan Supernatural School, which is the only supernatural school in New Aonan. Luo Yan believes that its scale should be able to reach the level of key universities in her previous life. In terms of students, most of them are between the ages of 12 and 18. There are people of all kinds, and there are people of all kinds—she has already confirmed through Lu Xiaona that New Onan is indeed an independent city composed of multiple countries and ethnic groups, among which immigrants from the Republic of Asia and their descendants dominate , followed by the races of the Europa League and the British region.

It is worth mentioning that although the major countries and cities in this world are quite different from those in the previous life in terms of territory and naming, they can correspond to some countries in the previous life in terms of culture, history and social structure.The discovery of this point made her feel more and more that this world should be a parallel world, but because of some major accidents, it seriously affected the development process of the original world line, and caused a great change in the entire historical trajectory. offset. ?

Of course, all of this is just her conjecture, and what it looks like needs further research.

When I came to the library this time, I also had such a purpose in it.

The library is in the northwest corner of the school. Luo Yan came all the way, and it really attracted a lot of attention. Previously, she used to travel in the car in New Aonan. Now, in an open environment where people come and go, Luo Yan finally realized that " The feeling of "everyone's attention", walking on campus, she can feel many eyes falling on her, if she pays a little attention, she will hear things like "who is that", "that girl is so beautiful", " Sure enough, the friends of beautiful girls are all beautiful girls, Lu Xiaona is so cute, the girls walking beside her are even prettier” and other comments.Even if Luo Yan turned her eyes to the library in the distance, she could still feel some fiery gazes fixed on her proud chest that swayed slightly with her steps.

At this time, Luo Yan suddenly realized something.

In his previous life, he would occasionally be attracted by some irresistible glamorous scenery. At the beginning, he thought he observed it very covertly, but now it seems that he should have been noticed...

Thinking of this, Luo Yan felt a little belatedly embarrassed, but it didn't matter, after all——what's wrong with men being XX? ?

So, despite feeling a little out of place and unnatural, she was able to understand some of the fiery stares. ??

"This is the library, sister Luo Yan."

Lu Xiaona stopped and pointed at the large irregular building with metallic luster in the distance, "I'll let Atlanta accompany you in, so I'll go to class first, and I'll come to you after class."

Luo Yan nodded: "Go to class first, don't be late."

After Lu Xiaona walked away, Atlanta raised her hand and made a "please" gesture: "Miss Luo Yan, please follow me."

The two easily passed the inspection at the entrance of the library. After arriving inside, Luo Yan found that compared with the exterior design, the interior of the library was obviously more imaginative.

Layers of white stairs spread out in waves, and above the stairs are also wavy bookshelves. Being in it is like walking in a space full of sci-fi.

Atlanta introduced: "This is a well-known design in New Aonan, named Shuhai. This library was also created by Chen Orion, who is a graduate of New Aonan Supernatural School. Therefore, whenever there are novel and interesting ideas, the alma mater will be given priority.”

"How long has it been since this library was built? How long ago did Chen Orion graduate?" Luo Yan asked. In fact, she was more curious about that superhuman named Chen Orion.

Atlanta seemed to understand what she meant, and smiled slightly: "It has been built for 8 years. At that time, Chen Orion was only 23 years old, and his power level was Luminous. Six years later, that is, when he was 6 years old At that time, he broke through the genetic restriction and became a supernatural person, and in the same year, he designed the inverse corridor for the school."

"I remember it really clearly." At this time, the two had already entered the reading area, and Luo Yan sighed with emotion in a low voice. ??

Atlanta shook her head and said in a low voice: "There are only a handful of supernatural users in New Aonan, and Chen Orion is not a low-key person. He knows some information about him. If you want to know and don't It's not a particularly difficult thing. Having said that... With Miss Luo Yan's talent and strength, if you stay in New Aonan long enough, you might have a chance to meet him."?

The library is very quiet. Although it is said to be a school with supernatural powers, the style of painting is actually the same as that of a normal school when studying. Everyone is immersed in reading, and there is no trace of supernatural powers.

"On the left is the humanities and history area, here is the supernatural theory, and on the right is genetic science... I will not accompany you any more, please feel free, Ms. Luo Yan, if you have anything, you can come to the entrance to find me, or you can ask Staff nearby." The female guard with blond hair in a single ponytail and a neutral suit stopped in her tracks and said softly.

Luo Yan nodded, she didn't object, and she really needed a little private space, if someone followed her while reading, she would probably feel uncomfortable. ?

She first went to the humanities and history area, and then picked out "Light of Civilization", which talked about the evolution of civilization in this world as a whole, "Cuneiform... Stone Age... Feudal Kings... Great Voyage... Sure enough , is similar to the information I found on the Internet yesterday. The history of this world is indeed highly overlapping with the previous life... Blue Star, so this planet is called Blue Star, but it is slightly different from the previous life, but in a sense, it is even more appropriate .”

Compared with the information on the Internet, the historical details in the library are more abundant, and Luo Yan also saw more historical worlds that echoed the previous life, such as the great unification of Asia in ancient times, such as the Eastern Expedition of the European countries. The specific details here have undergone some changes, but most of the time nodes and the final historical results can be matched.

Another point is that although the geographical map or world map of this blue star is not the same as that of the previous life, there is a certain degree of similarity.

These current discoveries undoubtedly made Luo Yan more convinced of her "parallel world theory". However, the question is, since the historical process is similar, what caused the two world lines to go in completely different directions?

Her brows furrowed slightly, and she speeded up the page flipping, until at a certain page, her slender hands paused slightly, "I found it, and that's the reason."?

The year 2000 in the Western calendar is called "Millennium Mutation" by historians, also known as "Century Mutation".

Chapter 18 The Millennium Change

On December 2000, 12 in the Western calendar, the scientific research institutes of different countries simultaneously fed back a piece of information - in the low-earth orbit of the blue star, multiple groups of unknown high-energy light sources were discovered, and these high-energy light sources were grazing near the earth at the speed of light The track then disappeared inexplicably.

At that time, the emergence of this phenomenon aroused extensive discussions in the scientific community, and there were different opinions. However, no one knew at that time how far-reaching the occurrence of this phenomenon would have on the future of the entire human kingdom, let alone thought that, The changes caused by this phenomenon came so quickly. ?

Before anyone could react, this world that had been at peace for a long time ushered in earth-shaking changes.

First of all, a large amount of high-energy substances began to gather on the surface of the blue star. These substances were called Odega ore by later scientists. At the same time, various types of animals also began to mutate due to the pollution of high-energy substances.

According to the existing witness records, the first mutation was a carnivorous animal named "Tiberian Snow Tiger".

After the mutation occurred, the skin and flesh of the "Tiberian Snow Tiger" began to harden. If the degree of mutation was deep, it would not be an exaggeration to describe it as steel and iron.In terms of body size, there is also a trend of becoming huge. Those with a small variation range are basically a round larger, and those with a large range are almost doubled.Not long after, similar mutations appeared in different subspecies of tigers. For the convenience of research, the academic community named these tigers with the same mutation signs "iron-toothed tigers".

The "iron-toothed tiger" was only the prelude to this upheaval, and then various mutant beasts appeared in the field of vision of human beings one after another, including the "corpse dog" that terrifies people. Under such circumstances, it is still possible to rely on the instinct of wild beasts to launch attacks...

The appearance of mutant beasts began to have a great impact on the structural stability of human society at that time. After tens of thousands of years, human beings who already possessed high-tech weapons such as guns once again challenged those who were either exiled or kept in captivity. creatures feel fear. ?

Of course, although these changes are absurd, they obviously cannot shake the foundation of human beings who have already mastered thermal weapons. What can really scare human beings is the irresistible and irreversible upheaval from within——

When the first mutant beast was discovered, this mutation also came to humans. ?

A highly contagious disease called "hemolytic disease" has appeared on a large scale among the human population.

This disease has a mechanism similar to "cancer". It is also caused by cell mutations. Ability - "Contagion". ?

"...The mutated cells are also called "hemolytic cells". They have strong vitality, differentiation ability, and aggressiveness. Through continuous self-division and assimilation of healthy cells, they continuously infect surrounding tissues and eventually spread and transfer. to the whole body.The clinical symptoms of early stage patients usually manifest as chest tightness, shortness of breath, muscle weakness, and extreme fatigue, which are relatively hidden. If people do not pay enough attention to it, they often regard it as a sequela caused by lack of sleep.And when "hemolytic disease" develops to the middle and late stages, it will show obvious features, such as dark blood red spots on the skin, bleeding in facial features, organ failure..."

In the middle and late stage of "Hemolytic Disease", there are related pictures in the article. Luo Yan glanced at it, and only saw a horrible body covered in red spots, blood from eyes, nose, and ears. The opponent's eyes widened, which also made the body look even more ferocious.

It is a visible desperation. ?

"From the early stage, "hemolytic disease" has been highly contagious. Generally speaking, the infectivity and severity of the disease are often negatively correlated. However, "hemolytic disease" has broken this routine and become a disease beyond " "Cancer" is an incurable disease..."

""Hemolytic disease" is mainly transmitted through contact and body fluids. The abnormal cells overflowing the patient's body can survive for a certain period of time at room temperature-according to the experimental results, as long as there is a suitable environment, they can survive for at least 24 hours. In a high-temperature environment of -60°C, its survival time still exceeds 100 hours. Fortunately, the mutated cells cannot spread through the air..."

"In 2001 in the Western calendar, that is, after the "Millennium Incident", the order of the world began to collapse day by day, and human beings had to regain their faith and courage to fight against the absurd reality..."?

A chill came over Luo Yan's heart.

High fatality rate and strong infectivity.

Picking out any one alone is enough to make people feel frightened, but this "hemolytic disease" takes up both of them, and its destructiveness can be imagined. Although she has not experienced such an era personally, she can pass through The words and pictures truly felt the despair and fear of the people at that time.

What's more, at that time, there were not only "hemolytic disease", but also a large number of "variant beasts"...

Although she had already prepared herself for how bad this world is from Nicole's "world full of devastation" and what she has seen and heard in the past few days before reading the information, she has to say that the cruelty of this world is still Far beyond her imagination. ?

"...The human world, where everything is interconnected, was forcibly divided by mutations. Later scholars divided the world into three types of plates based on the environment of each place-polluted area, wasteland, and order area... Under the impact of mutations, many countries disintegrated one after another, and remained on the old pages of history forever...Limited by the new territory environment, independent cities began to become the new mainstream model...Countries fell apart because of the mutations, and people fell apart because of the changes. The same beliefs gathered together again, and the order was rebuilt in pain and despair. At this time, Aonan City also ushered in a new light. From then on, Aonan City has become history, and New Aonan is writing a new page..."?

After this page is a comparison map of the world map before and after the millennium change.

It can be seen that many countries have perished and disintegrated in this mutation—due to the drastic changes in the environment, the pressure brought by the ultra-long borders has also surged, and the model of great powers is unsustainable, except for the Republic of Asia, the Europa League and The few remaining major countries such as the United States and Canada, and the remaining twenty or so medium-sized countries, most of the remaining countries have been divided and reorganized into independent cities. ?

It turns out that this is how the independent city of Ao Nang came about.

Luo Yan felt a sudden sense of surprise, and then was attracted by the title of the next chapter. ?

The Light of Darkness - The Supernatural Being. ?

I'm coming.

Luo Yan took a deep breath and immediately cheered up.

The origin of the supernatural beings in this world, and other detailed descriptions related to them, these are the things she wants to know most besides understanding the historical background of this world. ?

Chapter 19 The Light of Darkness

"...At present, there has been an accurate conclusion, that is, people with supernatural powers are mutants who have been screened. This is like a process of natural selection of the survival of the fittest. People who adapt to mutations can unlock the genetic restrictions and obtain supernormal abilities. The incredible power of human beings, and for those who cannot bear this kind of mutation, those mutated cells become an out-and-out poison, not only will they be swallowed up, but also will continue to drag new people. into the abyss of misery and despair..."?

"These people who adapted to the mutation were later called "supernatural beings" by scholars. It is precisely because of the appearance of these "supernatural beings" that countless people in this era have heard of the mutation and another term. Draw an equal sign. "

"...that noun is called 'evolution'. "?

"When the supernatural beings were first discovered, the vast majority of people did not realize how the appearance of the supernatural beings would affect the entire human world. The number of people with supernatural powers is very limited, and those who can successfully pass the "screening" to become supernatural beings are even rarer. When people see supernatural beings, in addition to envy and jealousy, they also have rejection and resistance. "

The emergence of supernatural beings is accompanied by the death of countless people. From this point of view, it is not incomprehensible that people will reject supernatural beings.

Similarly, the emergence of such a cruel viewpoint as "evolution theory" is also intensifying the contradiction between the two groups of "ordinary people" and "supernatural beings". ??

Luo Yan shook her head, and continued to read: "... Another reason why supernatural beings did not attract enough attention from the public at the beginning was that there was no systematic way of cultivating supernatural beings at that time. Compared with ordinary people, the advantages of supernatural beings who display their talents are only better physical fitness, explosive power and reaction speed..."

"Of course, the above facts are only explained from the perspective of ordinary people. In fact, at that time, many countries and interest communities noticed the importance of supernatural beings, and regarded them as the turning point of the new era and carried out a lot of research work..."

"Some countries and independent cities that have made leading progress in the study of abilities have taken this opportunity to develop better, and the world pattern is also quietly changing in the process. The method has sprung up in people's field of vision like mushrooms after rain, and a special school for supernatural beings came into being."

"...With the continuous development and improvement of the supernatural cultivation system, the gap between supernatural beings and ordinary people has gradually widened. When supernatural beings appeared, people realized that it turned out that High-level supernatural beings have almost surpassed human cognition..."

"Today's scholars generally regard the year 2006 in the Western calendar when the superhuman level was born for the first time as another inflection point of the times. Suddenly looking back, supernatural beings, as a special group that has been controversial since their appearance, already have In addition to the completely different social status, more importantly, in the same year, the proportion of people with supernatural powers in the world's population reached 10 times that of the millennium, that is, 0.3%. "

"At the same time, based on the gradual expansion of the scale of supernatural beings and the gradual in-depth research on supernatural powers, people who think that they have a relatively comprehensive grasp of supernatural powers finally jointly established a method for distinguishing supernatural powers this year. There are four successive levels of ability—alienation, awakening, light-grazing, and extraordinary. Until now, people still use this division system when distinguishing the level of supernatural beings. However, around 2020 in the Western calendar, a comparative Extraordinary and more powerful supernatural beings..."?

"Because alienated genes can be passed on to offspring, coupled with environmental changes over the past 20 years, supernatural beings have become more and more active on the world stage. According to the latest statistical results, the number of supernatural beings in 2025 in the Western calendar accounted for the world's total." The proportion of the population has reached 1.3%. Experts speculate that this data will continue to expand at a relatively high rate. However, some experts have analyzed the potential alienation population and pointed out that the proportion of 1.5% is close to the threshold, and it will take another 10 years at most. It will reach a peak, and then it will plateau..."

This book was written in 2025 of the Western calendar, and now it is 2030 of the Western calendar, so the latest statistical results mentioned in the article are actually in the past tense. According to the latest survey data she found on the Internet, the current abnormal Capable persons accounted for 1.5%.

In just 5 years, it has increased by 0.2 percentage points, and the momentum is still not declining. The experts who put forward the "peak theory" may be in a bad situation. ?

A thoughtful look flashed across Luo Yan's eyes: "Speaking of which, based on the latest 1.5%, about 200 out of 3 people are supernatural beings. This ratio is actually quite high. According to the Judging from the level classification of supernatural beings, I, who is displayed as "Awakening" level on the system panel, should be regarded as having just crossed the threshold of beginners.Of course, this is also foreseeable. After all, with my "awakened" strength, I can only be classified as a student in Lu Xiaona's supernatural school, but I am relatively excellent. "

What is waiting in front of her now is Luang Guang, Transcendence, and a more powerful level above Transcendence. ?

On the road of supernatural powers, she still has a long way to go.

Luo Yan looked through several books related to supernatural powers, among them was the supernatural teaching materials written by Lu Xiaona's school, New Aonan No. [-] Supernatural School.

It should be said that the textbook is really worthy of being a textbook. I thought it should be something like "martial arts cheats", but in fact it is more about theory, and there are many professional formulas in it that make the scumbags have a headache when they look at it— —Although 30 years have passed since the Millennium Incident, people still prefer to use the original scientific framework to analyze abilities.

"What a scumbag is not worthy of doing is a plus, tsk, it's so miserable..."

Luo Yan shook her head secretly and sighed, even though she couldn't understand most of the formulas inside, she still had a system, which was a great advantage - if there was no advent plan that she had to pay attention to, it would be even worse. All right.

At present, it can be confirmed that the way of cultivating supernatural powers in this world is still based on theory and actual combat, and there should be no one like her who can practice supernatural powers through the built-in system, at least in the supernatural teaching materials she has seen now is not mentioned at all.

However, in addition to theory and actual combat, there are not no special cultivation methods, and it can even be said to be varied, but most of the people who write the textbooks have reservations about these methods. It was only when a noun passed her sight that it finally caught her attention. ?

Odegar Extraction.

Chapter 20 Communication

"Odega ore contains incredible high-energy energy, which is often used in the energy industry. If oil is the blood of industry, then Ordega energy is the heart of industry. Ordega technology has subverted everything and given new life to industry. It also brings infinite possibilities for the improvement of supernatural beings..."

Xu Chen, who was reading a tome next to the bookshelf, paused slightly when he read this passage, then quickly glanced at the content behind, and shook his head: "Although this book also mentions the Odgar extraction method, , but the specific talk is about the industrial extraction method that I heard about the cocoon. As for the part of the laboratory extraction that I want to know the most, I still briefly mentioned it. When the theory class teacher talked about this part, he also chose to avoid the important ones, probably because he was worried about us. Quick success, direct purchase of raw ore, self-extraction practice..."

He came to the library this time because he wanted to find more non-industrial methods of refining Odgar ore.

Of course, he also understands that if this is knowledge that the school doesn't want to mention, then the possibility of finding it in the library is very small.

Moreover, he skipped class today, if he didn't come to the library, he couldn't think of any other better place to go.

As for why skipping classes, the reason is very simple.

Because for him, who was at the top of his grade in theoretical courses, the knowledge at this stage was too simple, and he was eager for more profound and practical knowledge.

Although sometimes some people in the class will be rejected because of his own way of personality, but he doesn't think it's a big deal. It's a stupid thing to care too much about how others think of himself. It's better to devote limited energy to In infinite learning. ?

At least knowledge never betrays itself. ?

Obviously, for him who doesn't need to socialize and is still a single nobleman, the library is the only place to go. ?

This is the whole reason why he came here, not because of such unspeakable reasons as social fear, absolutely not.

"Huh? This... "On the High-end Extraction Method of Odegar Ore" seems to be interesting..." Xu Chen lightly raised his rimless glasses, and was about to take the book off the shelf, but At the same time, a slender hand reached out from the opposite side of the bookshelf, and took the book away before him. ?

He froze slightly. ?

At the same time, because the book was taken away by the other party, a thin gap leaked between the bookshelves, allowing him to see the other party just in time.

It was a very good-looking girl, and he could be sure that this was the best-looking girl he had ever seen in his short ten-year study career, whether it was the astonishing size of the chest that was about to be revealed, or the male-female picture. His pretty face is worthy of the subconscious evaluation he made in this very short time.Xu Chen has always been not interested in other people's appearance, but this does not prevent him from making such an evaluation here and now. ?
