Chapter 002: Titan Mechanical City

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

Two corpses of thunder beasts were piled in the corner, next to which was a chainsaw that had long been prepared

As for others, even those who are fire seed practitioners can only follow the path of the eleven.

Amidst the roar of the engine, Li Mu kicked up a cloud of dust and drove away.

After two months of arduous training, the Fire Seed Body Refinement Technique has significantly enhanced his physical constitution

Canned food is the staple diet of the residents in the city

However, such a colossal structure, shrouded in mist, only reveals its clear outline when one is several kilometers away. The city, composed of steel, has chimneys emitting white smoke, and within the city, the buildings are densely packed and brightly lit. Searchlights, continuously sweeping, barely dispel the surrounding fog.

The vast majority of the original sparks obtained are quite weak, and those truly qualified to become professionals do not exceed thirty percent

The meat of the thunder beast must be fresh to hold value, therefore time cannot be delayed any further

Today, there are no pedestrians or vehicles on the streets; only the trams come and go.

Moreover, the prices of ordinary living supplies are not high. Apart from the smaller living space and fewer entertainment options in Frostfire City, the laws are well-established in other aspects, and the happiness level of ordinary residents is actually much higher than that of the previous era's 996 work culture.

Among them, steam power is predominant. In addition to the precious nature of fire source energy that necessitates conservation, there are also many foggy areas in the fire source world that render electric energy ineffective. Conversely, the most primitive steam power, due to its exceptionally high adaptability, has become the most commonly used conventional power in Titan Mechanical City

Li Mu immediately took out the infrared binoculars for observation, and indeed all the ferocious wolves had left. The number of thunder beasts had decreased by three, one of which had presumably been dragged away by the ferocious wolves. The remaining two thunder beast corpses were surrounded by a group of thunder beasts.

If the ordinary residents are not treated well, how can talent be retained

In the world of fire seeds, the energy of fire seeds is omnipresent. The fire seed meditation technique is a universal means of refining the spiritual perception of fire seed energy. Although he has not yet awakened the innate fire seed and is unable to absorb fire seed energy, he can still perceive the fire seed battleship within his soul through the fire seed meditation technique.

The city wall is nearly 1,000 meters high from the ground, densely covered with cannon barrels on top.

The population of Frostfire City is 160,000, with an average of no more than 1,000 youths participating in the awakening ceremony each year

Fortunately, the taste is good, and it is rich in nutrition, being both high-quality and affordable. Frostfire City does not exploit ordinary residents, as they are, after all, the guarantee of the population. The more people there are, the more talents will emerge. No one knows whether a genius might arise from a lower-class family during the awakening ceremony

Following the flow of people, we passed through the underground passage of the main building of the academy, where there were guardians from the Frostfire City Lord's Mansion stationed along the way. Soon, we had advanced through the passage into Titan Mechanical City, traversing from the surface living area through the underground factory zone, ultimately arriving at the deepest underground core of Titan Mechanical City

Although Frostfire City is a city of fire seeds, its conventional power sources are nuclear energy and steam power

Li Mu arrived at the supply warehouse, where he could move freely, but for the supplies placed inside, it was as if time had come to a standstill. The only way to break this time freeze was for him to hold the items in his hands

Returning to the cabin via the elevator, Li Mu simply prepared some food

Pushing the cart, Li Mu arrived at the rental shop near the city gate to return the steam motorcycle, and then he headed straight back to his residence

Having eaten and drunk to his satisfaction, Li Mu reclined in the rocking chair and began to practice the Fire Seed Meditation Technique

All students of the Fire Seed Academy can ride the tram for free

Li Mu waited for quite a while before being granted entry into the Fire Seed Academy after a strict verification of his identity

He has long since completed the self-study of the courses at the Fire Seed Academy and is fully capable of using these two months at home to eliminate these two Thunder Beasts

The Frostfire Titan Mechanical City is not very large, with a diameter exceeding 5,000 meters and a height exceeding 1,000 meters

At this time, there are still two months until the awakening ceremony

However, as I passed through the city gate, a red light swept by.

Although Frostfire City is quite large, the majority of it is occupied by weapons and factories, making the residential areas relatively crowded. The residential areas that are farther away from the factories have particularly high housing prices. It took me more than half an hour to navigate through the winding streets of Eleventh Avenue before finally returning home.

Although it is merely a mental consciousness that has entered, here his mental consciousness is as if it possesses a physical form

In contrast, those fortunate individuals with a better innate spark of fire, only have a survival rate of 30% to 60% after ten years. Furthermore, the subsequent situation is not entirely safe; however, after ten years, they have all become seasoned veterans, knowing how to ensure their own survival more effectively

Even if the braised meat is made by a novice cook, it can still be nutritious and delicious, leaving one wanting more.

Tomorrow marks the day of awakening the innate spark of fire, and today, nothing is more important than replenishing one's spirit.

In the moment of proximity, a hand reached out and had already collected two corpses of the Thunder Beasts into the supply hold of the Fire Seed Warship

It is evident that the battle between the Thunder Beast and the Savage Wolf has come to an end

He currently possesses a strength of 200 jin with one arm. Here, the 200 jin does not refer to weightlifting, but rather the ability to wield a weapon weighing 200 jin for up to one hour. This requires not only sheer strength but also a combination of formidable endurance and physical robustness.

Li Mu took out the loudspeaker again, but this time the sound that spread was not the howl of wolves, but the gunfire originating from humans. Just a few days ago, this group of Thunder Beasts had been hunted by several Fire Seed Hunters, and at this moment, hearing the sound of gunfire would definitely cause them to flee in panic

After approximately half an hour on the tram, we finally arrived at the only Ember Academy in Frostfire City

At this moment, he could not help but marvel at humanity's talent for food. In the world of fire seeds, many things are not palatable, yet consuming them brings significant benefits. For this type of food, there are specialized culinary professionals among the fire seed practitioners who have developed various delicious foolproof seasonings.

The innate talent of the original fire seed may not be exceptional, but it does not signify misfortune; at the very least, one can live a stable life within the city for at least two hundred years

Beneath the city walls are hundreds of meters high wheels and tracks, which serve as the primary power source for Titan Mechanical City

A metal skyscraper reaching up to fifty stories, even after ten thousand years, this building will not exhibit any quality issues

Just like the college entrance examination on Blue Star, everything in Frostfire City today must make way for the Awakening Ceremony

At this moment, a long queue has already formed at the main entrance of the Fire Seed Academy

Early the next morning, Li Mu set off in high spirits for the Fire Seed Academy

This red light is the true test

The soldier guarding the city gate verified his identity card and allowed him to pass without further delay

At least here, houses are allocated for free, and the daily work of ordinary people is not considered arduous

Two months later, Li Muxiang sweetly consumed the last piece of Thunder Beast meat

Li Mu listened intently for a long time, and only then did the thunderous sounds from the Thunder Beast Wilderness gradually subside

As expected, the group of thunder beasts abandoned two corpses of their kind and migrated overnight

After a busy half day, Li Mu felt a bit drained in his mental state. He then disassembled the two Thunder Beasts, carefully separating and storing the bones, flesh, and skin. Contentedly, he left the Fire Seed Warship, holding a bone in one hand and a piece of meat in the other.

... ...

Li Mu arrived at the side of Frostfire City and took the elevator to the city gate located several hundred meters above the ground

The real estate developers of Blue Star would definitely be infuriated to see such a building

In the next moment, Li Mu's spiritual consciousness entered the Fire Seed Warship

The technique of refining the body with fire essence aids in digestion, allowing him to consume even several thousand pounds of meat without difficulty

As Li Mu observed the herd of thunder beasts moving a certain distance away, he immediately retracted the camouflage cloth and exited the hiding cave. He retrieved a steam-powered off-road motorcycle from the fire seed battleship within his soul, ignited the engine, and charged straight towards the two thunder beast corpses
