Chapter 1, Li Weiyi
Li Weiyi boarded a long train that had been waiting nearby, found an empty seat, and sat down to rest with his eyes closed
Watching the gradually receding train and the lights of nearby buildings slowly illuminating, Li Wei smiled gently and walked towards a tall building nearby
A mournful cry rang out as the yellow-haired beast, propelled by its own momentum, charged forward for a short distance before crashing to the ground with a thunderous sound, stirring up a cloud of dust
... ...
The figure of the yellow-haired beast in the dust struggled a few times in vain, accompanied by a reluctant wail, and then fell completely silent
Arrived! Li Wei whispered to himself, then quickly got up and got off the track vehicle
The yellow-haired beast that had fallen to the ground struggled weakly a couple of times, opening its mouth in an attempt to roar, but no sound emerged. Subsequently, its eyes gradually became vacant, losing their luster.
The young man in black looked up at the sky, murmured softly, and then walked away slowly
The three yellow-haired beasts quickly came to a halt, turning to fiercely roar at the young man in black.
Looking at its neck, there is a wound about one foot long, with blood flowing out of the cut in a trickle
It is getting late, we should return to the base
Upon seeing that soldier, the young man in black, Li Wei Yi, grinned and said: "Is it Zhang Ge's turn to stand guard again today? Hehe! The harvest this time is not substantial, we only hunted a few low-tier ferocious beasts."
... ...
However, what turned around was only two yellow-haired beasts
These three yellow-haired ferocious beasts stand nearly two meters tall, and their appearance resembles that of the old-fashioned "pastoral dogs," only they are several times larger than the "pastoral dogs"!
Suddenly, a flash of cold light appeared, and the young man in black swiftly charged behind the three-headed yellow-haired beast
However, before it could make any decision, the human in front of it suddenly rushed towards it, and the enormous fist gradually loomed larger in its beastly eyes
Wū ~ ! ''
Alas! We are no longer capable! From now on, the survival base will rely on you young people to support it. The soldier with the surname Zhang shook his head and sighed; he was already over forty years old, and with his physical condition, it was impossible for him to make any further progress in his cultivation.
Near the entrance, a soldier guarding the gate saw the young man in black and jokingly remarked, "Hey! Isn't this our 'Lone Hero Li Weiyi'? How's it going? What have you gained today?"
You are only nineteen years old! You are already capable of hunting ferocious beasts outside the base on your own! You are much stronger than us old folks!
The yellow-haired beast felt a surge of excruciating pain, and its consciousness gradually faded away, leaving no time even to let out a cry of anguish before its life came to an end
The other yellow-haired beast shook its body slightly, its eyes revealing fear and unwillingness as it fell to the ground
The Yellow-haired Beast belongs to the lowest rank of low-tier ferocious beasts. However, although it is the lowest level of ferocious beasts, it is still significantly stronger than ordinary humans, and non-cultivators cannot contend with it
Subsequently, the rail vehicle slowly began to move, heading towards the vast and dark survival base ahead
As the young man in black leaped, he plunged the battle knife in his hand fiercely into the skull of one of the yellow-haired beasts
A mournful cry rang out, emanating from the remaining yellow-haired beast.
His home is located on the eighteenth floor of this tall building, within a less than thirty square meter inexpensive apartment
Looking further away, towards the picture book, there is a dark, seemingly endless city wall rising dozens to hundreds of meters high, appearing at a distance of nearly one kilometer.
The young man in black, with a cold expression, tightly gripped his battle knife, and as the two yellow-haired beasts charged towards him, he instantly flipped and leaped up.
They have lost their former gentleness and have become extremely aggressive. Moreover, their behavior resembles that of wolves from before the New Era, exhibiting pack behavior, often moving in groups of at least ten to several dozen "yellow-haired beasts".
The development of electricity on Earth has ushered in a period of vigorous growth, leading humanity into a grand era of electricity usage
As night falls, outside the survival base, there are dangers everywhere. A moment's carelessness could lead to death beyond the survival base. Therefore, they can only return to the survival base before night arrives to avoid unforeseen circumstances outside.
Before the yellow-haired beast could react, the fist of the young man in black struck directly on the head of the yellow-haired beast
It is precisely because I am young that I must strive to follow in the footsteps of my predecessors and become a strong individual like them. At this point, Li Wei's gaze became incredibly resolute
As evening approached, at the imposing and massive Survival Base No. 7, groups of practitioners occasionally entered through the entrance and exit, all of whom were teams that had set out in the morning to hunt ferocious beasts
However, their name is now referred to as "Yellow-haired Beast"! It belongs to the category of low-level ferocious beasts
Moreover, these three yellow-haired ferocious beasts completely lack the gentleness of the "pastoral dog"
Although the young man in black could easily kill three yellow-haired beasts, he questioned whether he could escape if the earlier noise attracted a horde of yellow-haired beasts, and he imagined it would be quite a messy situation
At the very moment the young man in black launched his attack, the three yellow-haired beasts also roared and charged out towards the picture book
Within these towering, dark walls lies the true base of survival
Boom
Harnessing the collective strength of scientists worldwide, under their full efforts, the various electrical challenges that arose before the new era have been resolved one by one
The second station has arrived, passengers nearby please disembark in a timely manner
... ...
August 19, 2102, 3 PM, clear
At this moment, they revealed their ferocious appearance, with long fangs exposed, shining with a terrifying glint, and occasionally emitting chilling low growls.
After the New Era, due to the occupation of survival bases by ferocious beasts and the difficulty in obtaining oil resources, humanity turned its full attention to overcoming the challenges of electricity.
In an instant, the battle blade pierced through the skull of the yellow-haired beast
The rail vehicle gradually accelerated, passing through the main gate of the inner base, and then entered the true survival base
Oh dear! It's done! You! Others form teams of several people to go out and hunt ferocious beasts, and they can only hunt a few. But you, on the other hand, go out alone to hunt and still find it insufficient! Are you not allowing us lower-tier individuals to live? Hearing what Li Wei said, the soldier with the surname Zhang pretended to be furious.
Brother Zhang, I will go in first. When I have time, I will chat with you again
Two angry and ferocious roars echoed, as if mourning the death of their companion, yet also as if they had never cared about the life or death of their kind, but merely sought to bring the human before them to their demise beneath their fangs
The two yellow-haired beasts that had turned around stopped their roaring, tilting their heads and looking somewhat puzzled at the yellow-haired beast that lay on the ground
In an instant, one person and three beasts collided with each other
The practitioners who disembarked at Station 1 gradually made their way down
Surrounding the survival base, there is a buffer zone of one thousand meters, akin to an outer city, encircling the internal survival base. This is designed to withstand the beast tide, thereby better protecting the human survival base
Before long, a young man in black, bearing a battle knife, approached slowly. This young man in black was the same one who had effortlessly slain three yellow-haired beasts in that dilapidated small town.
The first station has arrived, and passengers nearby are requested to disembark in a timely manner. The artificial synthesized voice on the train sounded, reminding the practitioners to get off at the station
The No. 7 station has arrived, passengers nearby are requested to disembark in a timely manner
After a moment of stalemate between one person and three beasts, the young man in black narrowed his eyes slightly, his body moved instantaneously, and his battle knife was raised, glinting with a cold light as it swiftly swept towards the three yellow-haired beasts
The exposed fangs of the two yellow-haired beasts gleam with a terrifying cold light; if one were to be bitten by them, it would likely result in either death or severe injury
Watching their companion die, the remaining two yellow-haired beasts were momentarily stunned, and then slowly raised their heads to look at the young man in black. In their small, fist-sized eyes, fierce light burst forth!
However, the young man in black has only encountered three "Yellow-haired Beasts," which can be considered very fortunate.
Its two companions had been killed in succession by the human before it. From its somewhat hesitant body and the hint of fear in its beastly eyes, it was evident that it was now feeling a bit afraid
In the evening, many practitioners return from outside the base, and this orbital vehicle is specifically designed for these practitioners, transporting them directly to the vicinity of their homes within the survival base
Well! Hurry inside!
Within the survival base, towering buildings are everywhere in sight
After bidding farewell to the soldier with the surname Zhang, Li Wei walked slowly into the survival base
In a dilapidated small town located twenty kilometers from Survival Base No. 7, beneath the ruins, a young man in black clothing tightly grips a one-meter-long battle knife with both hands, his gaze fixed ahead, poised to attack at any moment
Haha! Brother Zhang is joking. Compared to those true strong ones, I, as a younger brother, am still far from it!" Li Weiwei slightly shook his head, with a glimmer of brilliance flashing in his eyes
It is evident that this young man in black possesses immense confidence and remarkable strength, showing no fear towards the three yellow-haired beasts before him
The two yellow-haired beasts charged simultaneously towards the young man in black, one from the left and the other from the right, launching a pincer attack
Moments later, the track vehicle slowly started and drove towards the next station
The cars running on the road, the rail vehicles, as well as the aerial transit systems, small aircraft, and various living facilities are all entirely powered by electricity
Within the survival base, various industries are almost entirely dependent on electricity! All production primarily relies on electrical energy
Roar
This enlarged version of the "Pastoral Dog," a fierce beast with yellow fur, is derived from various dog breeds that existed before the new era, having mutated as the vital energy of the Earth revived
At this moment, the young man in black, with a stern expression, slightly raised his battle blade, showing no signs of panic in the face of the three yellow-haired beasts before him
After dealing with the three yellow-haired beasts, the young man in black cautiously surveyed his surroundings, confirming that there were no other yellow-haired beasts nearby, and only then did he relax.
... ...
Ten meters in front of the young man in black, three tall, yellow-haired ferocious beasts were slowly closing in on him in a fan shape
Before long, this railcar was filled to capacity
Roar
As Li Wei's small figure passed through the tall and futuristic gate of the base, what came into view was an expanse of open land
Wū ~ ! ''
The levels of ferocious beasts are classified by the new human civilization into seven grades, from highest to lowest: Imperial, Royal, Celestial, Terrestrial, High, Medium, and Low
