[The remaining abyss creatures have been cleared, please leave the shelter in an orderly manner] The vague and dull broadcasting sound came into Chu Xiu's ears. He reached out and pulled up the steel plug in front of him and crawled out from under the desk. What he saw was a classroom with a cold style, and the smell of gunpowder still remained in the air. Unlike the classroom with large floor-to-ceiling windows and warm white walls and wooden tables in the previous life, here are rough military explosion-proof walls that have not been painted yet. The tables and chairs are like military products of the Cold War, without any fancy decorations. Looking out from the fist-sized air vents, the sky above is dark and airtight, like the sky covered by lead gray. The playground below is covered with the corpses of deformed creatures, and the anti-aircraft guns on both sides are still rotating the red-burning gun barrels. The stench of burning corpses floated from below, filling Chu Xiu's nasal cavity, making him want to vomit. Even though he has been in this world for almost three months, he still can't get used to it. Yes, Chu Xiu is a time traveler, from a social animal who just graduated from college to a senior high school student. According to the memory in my mind, this is a world very similar to Blue Star. However, in 2028, the mysterious power called "Abyss" by later generations descended on the earth.
No one knows what the abyss is exactly. They only know that since then, the sky has often torn into cracks, and countless powerful and terrifying monsters have emerged from it, destroying everything in front of them like tireless killing machines. Even with powerful thermal weapons, humans are retreating in front of almost endless monsters. After all, even if all the monsters are wiped out, the losses have already been caused. Fortunately, the connection with the abyss has also opened up the road to transcendence for humans. Humans who enter the abyss will awaken [Talent] and [Profession], and can explore in different abyss worlds to gain powerful power. Today is 2067. Relying on the sacrifices of countless predecessors, the human race has finally gained a foothold, paved a path with blood and bones, and opened an era of universal awakening. "Awakener" Chu Xiu's eyes showed yearning. No one can resist the temptation of extraordinary power. It is also very simple to become an awakener. Every senior high school student can sign up for the awakening trial when graduation is approaching. As long as they survive, they can become an awakener. However, the mortality rate is very high, exceeding 60%. Moreover, most people awaken to low-level [talents] and life [occupations] that are useless. So, even if the temptation of extraordinary power is very strong, only about half of the people sign up every year. Chu Xiu himself was also hesitant and had been thinking about it during this period. As a Chinese who has lived in peace for many years, it is difficult for him to make up his mind immediately when he is suddenly asked to fight for his life. Just as Chu Xiu was thinking, a tall young man came over and patted him on the shoulder. "A Chu, the registration for the awakening trial has started. Do you want to go?" The man has a square face, a broad frame, and a body of tendon meat, which gives people a strong sense of oppression. This is Zhang Qingshan, the childhood friend of the original body and the monitor of their class. They have a very close relationship. It is no exaggeration to say that they grew up together.
Looking at the registration form in the other party's hand, Chu Xiu sighed softly, knowing that it was time to make a choice. Finally, after thinking carefully in his mind, he solemnly said: "Qingshan, I want to go." This is not Chu Xiu's momentary impulse. In fact, on the first day of coming to this world, he consulted a lot of information about the abyss and knew the danger of the abyss very well. It's just that in this dangerous world, ordinary people without power are like rootless duckweed. No matter how much they have achieved, they may be destroyed at any time by the invasion of the abyss. Once you encounter an abyss creature, you can only sit and wait for death! In despair, you will be torn into pieces by sharp teeth and claws! Instead of living in fear every day and pinning all your hopes on others, Chu Xiu wants to take his fate into his own hands. Even if he dies in the abyss, it is his own choice. Of course, there is another important factor that prompted Chu Xiu to make this decision, that is, as a time traveler, he is not completely helpless. In his mind, there is an ancient black book that traveled with him. At present, this book cannot be opened, but Chu Xiu can feel that once he enters the abyss and comes into contact with extraordinary power, he will be able to "wake up". "Although I don't know what this ancient book is for, at least it is worth my effort." Chu Xiu made up his mind. After hearing his answer, Zhang Qingshan hesitated with the registration form in his hand, and did not put it down immediately, but asked: "A Chu, have you thought it through?" "Your academic performance is so good, you will definitely be able to go to the inner ring university and settle in the inner ring city. It is said that the abyss cracks there will be high-level awakeners to deal with it in less than a minute, and ordinary citizens will not even notice it." "There is no need to fight to the death with us." Zhang Qingshan said very tactfully, but Chu Xiu understood what he meant. Although you need to enter the abyss to determine what specific talents and professions have been awakened, there are actually clues before that, and the concept of energy level is one of them. Energy level refers to the total amount of extraordinary power that has not yet been activated in a person's body. The higher the energy level, the stronger the talent that can be awakened. Even if it is the same talent, such as [Endurance], a person with a high energy level may awaken [Endurance (B+)], while a person with a low energy level is more likely to awaken [Endurance (E)] The average energy level of ordinary senior high school students is set at , while Chu Xiu only has . On the other hand, Zhang Qingshan's is as high as , which is the top three in the grade. Not to mention Chu Xiu's physical fitness, fighting skills and other achievements, which are also ordinary. It is indeed too risky to enter the abyss like this. However, the mysterious ancient book in his mind gave him the courage to fight. "Don't worry, Qingshan, I have thought about it carefully." Chu Xiu smiled faintly. "That's good," Zhang Qingshan let out a long breath and patted Chu Xiu's shoulder heavily: "A Chu, you have been smarter than me since childhood, I believe in your judgment." "You and I will meet the people in our club and my girlfriend's girlfriends later. Say hello in advance so that we can take care of each other when we enter the abyss later." "No matter how dangerous the abyss is, we brothers will go through it together!" Hearing this, Chu Xiu's eyes showed gratitude. Zhang Qingshan and his girlfriend Chu Qin are both top students in their grades and have a wide network of contacts. With these people taking care of them in the abyss, the chances of survival will indeed increase greatly.
He didn't say much, just punched Zhang Qingshan, and everything was self-explanatory. In the next half month, Chu Xiu seized every opportunity to hone his survival skills, strengthen his physical reserves, and concentrated on reading a lot of knowledge related to the abyss. He did not put all his hopes on the golden finger. In the intense preparations, time flew, and finally the day of the awakening trial arrived.
