Chapter 302 Extra 1 Zhao Chen in the Great Nirvana Period
Prologue, late summer 2014.
In a flat in a bustling area of Changshan City.
"According to the latest report, the R virus that broke out in the XX region has been confirmed as the 13th variant. According to the naming convention of the World Health Organization, it is named R-Δ1 variant. Its toxicity has been reduced again, but its transmission ability..."
On TV, Zhao Chen sat with his parents, listening to the news reports on TV, all with solemn expressions.
"This R virus...why does it keep mutating?"
Mother Zhao couldn't help muttering.
Mr. Zhao next to him also looked worried, worried about his daughter who was studying in college far away.
"I remember it shouldn't be this time..."
There was some doubt in Zhao Chen's eyes, which was the instinct of human beings when facing the unknown.
It’s only 2014, and a pandemic that spreads across the globe… shouldn’t have appeared until six years later, and it took three years to almost wipe it out.
Yes, Zhao Chen is a time traveler, or a reincarnated person.
He was born with the memories and thoughts of his past life, and with his so-called "talent", he went to college at the age of 10 and graduated with a doctorate at the age of 15.
During school, he copied many literary works, such as "My Ditan" and "The Three-Body Problem".
"Is it because of the normal world?"
Zhao Chen let out a long sigh, then looked at his parents and said, "Mom and Dad, don't worry. As long as our family doesn't go out, nothing will happen."
Because of some experiences in his previous life, Zhao Chen had a bad premonition when the R virus first emerged and appeared in the news, and then stockpiled supplies on a large scale, enough for his family to live for a long time.
Father Zhao nodded vigorously, looked at Zhao Chen and said, "Mom and Dad don't know as much as you do, so we will listen to you."
Zhao Chen is very lucky, his parents in this life are very clear-headed.
After Zhao Chen showed his "talent" that was far beyond that of ordinary people, his parents respected Zhao Chen's wishes and let him choose his own future life plan.
Otherwise, even if he was not the one who hurt Zhongyong, he would not necessarily be able to become a qualified plagiarist.
After all, Zhao Chen in his previous life had actually seen a true genius who was strangled by his parents. That person went to college at the age of 10, which was very different from Zhao Chen, a time-traveling kid.
……
In January 2016, the R virus evolved into its most terrifying variant, the RR virus.
This is a terrible variant that can survive in the air for at least 3 hours, and can be carried and spread by humans, birds, animals, and even insects.
A great nirvana of life and death has truly begun.
In Zhao Chen's home, in the bedroom, Zhao Chen was lying in bed with a high fever.
Next to him, his parents and younger sister were accompanying him.
"It's all my fault. If I hadn't been bitten by that mosquito, I wouldn't have been infected."
The little sister wiped the red corners of her eyes.
Within this month, Zhao Chen's entire family was infected with the RR virus, but fortunately, the 30% chance did not fall on Zhao Chen's family, and except for Zhao Chen himself, no serious case occurred.
"water……"
Lying on the hospital bed, Zhao Chen tried hard to open his eyes, and a hoarse sound came out from the corners of his cracked mouth.
Just a moment ago, he saw a kaleidoscope of images, which were his past and present life.
"How do you feel, kid?"
While feeding water, Zhao's mother asked cautiously.
Zhao Chen wanted to respond, but he no longer had the strength to do so and could only utter a few words.
"I'm... fine, don't worry."
The little girl next to her covered her mouth with her hands, her face was covered with tears, and she couldn't even see the scene in front of her clearly.
Father Zhao, who was always calm and composed, also took a deep breath, with tears in the corners of his eyes.
"Kid, hold on. Your parents can handle it at their age, so you will be fine."
Father Zhao felt helpless. At this time, Zhao Chen had no other means of treatment except taking some antipyretic medicine. As for sending him to the hospital, it was already overcrowded.
Perhaps it was God's blessing that Zhao Chen managed to pull through. The severe fever lasted for a full seven days and finally ended in the early morning of the eighth day.
"Brother, you're awake!"
When Zhao Chen sat up from the bed, the little sister with dark circles under her eyes was extremely surprised.
"Don't worry... I feel great, better than ever."
As Zhao Chen spoke, a real glimmer of light appeared in his eyes. He was now in a very special perspective.
Just like a three-dimensional scan, all the scenes and food in the bedroom appeared in Shen Mu's mind from a God's perspective.
This is a true God's perspective, not a bird's-eye view, but the ability to see all-round scenery and details up and down, left and right.
If there is a crack in an almost completely enclosed object, Zhao Chen can see the scene inside through the crack.
"Xiaoxing, go to your bedroom and change your clothes."
Zhao Chen closed his eyes instinctively, but this God's perspective could not be directly retracted.
My little sister Zhao Xing's cashmere pajamas are thick, but very loose.
Zhao Xing was stunned and said quickly: "Oh, I'll go right away."
Soon, the rising sun shone through the floor-to-ceiling windows in the spacious and bright living room, as if dispelling all the haze.
At this time, his parents and younger sister were looking at Zhao Chen in shock.
Under Zhao Chen's control, the kettle on the coffee table slowly floated up, as if held by an invisible big hand, pouring water into the cup beside it.
"I have fallen into the trap of inertial thinking."
Zhao Chen suddenly shook his head, and the kettle fell back on the coffee table, but the boiled water in it flew out in a strange manner, like a stream traveling in the void, dividing into three tributaries, filling all the cups.
"Brother...you, you became Superman?"
Zhao Xing came back to his senses from his stupor and couldn't help but speak.
Zhao Chen groaned for a moment and said, "It seems so. It should be the most common telekinesis, capable of controlling objects and detecting the surrounding scene from every angle."
Zhao Xing was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses in an instant and exclaimed.
"My daughter, are you okay?" Mother Zhao looked at her daughter with some concern.
Zhao Xing shook his head in embarrassment. Accidents like these were inevitable, so just ignore them.
At this time, Father Zhao couldn't help but say: "Actually, I feel that I have changed a little bit. My strength has increased a lot."
Father Zhao seemed to have not changed at all in the past few days, but only he knew that he had become much stronger and was very hungry.
However, his son had been in a coma with a high fever, so he had no appetite. After a few days, he was so hungry that he had stomachache.
"Strength, how much strength do you have?" Zhao's mother asked.
Father Zhao hesitated for a moment, then said, "It's at least two or three times bigger than before. I think it can lift up the coffee table."
The tempered glass coffee table is very thick and heavy, at least two hundred pounds.
But the biggest problem with this large coffee table is not its weight, but that it is so large that it is difficult for one person to lift it, and it requires more effort.
As soon as Mr. Zhao finished speaking, the large coffee table in front of him suddenly floated up slowly, startling the family members, and then they reacted. "Xiaochen... is it you?"
Zhao Chen sat there, seemingly motionless, but his invisible mental power was already spreading out.
"Yes, my telekinesis seems to be very strong. At least I feel very relaxed when lifting this coffee table. I don't feel any burden at all."
Zhao Xing's eyes lit up and he said, "Brother, you should study how strong your telekinesis is."
There are quite a few heavy objects and furniture in the house. Zhao Chen can try to lift them one by one and find that he can lift them all.
In the end, Zhao Chen chose to make multiple large pieces of furniture, such as wardrobes, float at the same time.
In the end, Zhao Chen roughly measured the limit of his telekinesis control, which is to control objects with a total weight of no more than 1 ton.
Then Zhao Chen tried to control two Phillips screwdrivers. The seemingly ordinary screwdrivers, driven by Zhao Chen's terrifying 1 ton of mental power, truly turned into powerful weapons that could kill anyone who stood in their way.
In the living room, Zhao Chen stood in place and waved his hand gently. Two screwdrivers flew through the air at a terrifying speed, leaving a series of afterimages.
"Xiao Chen, do you think we should file a case for this situation?"
Mr. Zhao next to him suddenly spoke up, wanting to seek his son's opinion.
At this time, the whole family noticed their own conditions, and there were some changes to some extent. Their strength, speed, endurance, etc. were at least twice as great as before.
Mr. Zhao's situation is a bit special. He was originally in sub-health and of a relatively old age, and being able to lift more than 100 kilograms was his limit. Now he can easily lift more than 500 or 600 kilograms, which is close to the level of the previous Olympic champion.
As for Zhao Chen, he is even more special.
"Register, that's fine."
As Zhao Chen spoke, the two screwdrivers fell back into his palms.
At this moment, there was some worry in Zhao Chen's eyes.
If my speculation is correct, all people who have been infected with the RR virus and survived have undergone some kind of evolution at the life level to a greater or lesser extent.
But the RR virus... doesn't just infect humans.
As it turned out, Zhao Chen's speculation was not wrong.
Humans who have been living comfortably have seen their physical conditions improve so much.
The birds and animals that survived the RR virus have always followed the law of survival of the fittest in nature. This time, the physical transformation has made the strength of various birds and animals much greater than that of humans. Moreover, some of the terrifying monsters have even gained wisdom!
In September 2015, starting with the attack of countless creatures in the ocean, countless birds and beasts transformed into "monsters" and began to attack human settlements!
A war between humans and monsters has begun.
In this bloody and crazy war, people were shocked to find that the thermal weapons they had always been proud of were only effective against some low-level monsters.
The powerful flying and walking monsters were not afraid of bullets or artillery fire. Bullets could not even break their scales!
The missile attack was easily avoided by the monster with quick nerve reflexes and high speed.
During the war, many cities were destroyed.
Countless small countries, especially various island countries, were almost completely destroyed at the beginning of the war.
The greatest crisis in human history has emerged. At the critical moment, the five major countries truly reach a historical reconciliation and establish the Earth Alliance to fight the final battle between human civilization and monsters.
In December 2015, an evolved giant snake rushed out of the Taihang Mountains, leading countless monsters to launch a beast tide.
In the endless crisis, Zhao's mother disappeared.
In July 2016, a super electric eel monster appeared in the Huhe River Basin. It was even more powerful than the evolved giant snake, and little sister Zhao Xing died.
In the same month, Zhao Chen's mental power soared again, and according to the evaluation at the time, he was called a level 7 evolver.
Whether it is telekinesis or one's own strength, as long as it reaches 1 ton, it is considered level 1.
The subsequent classification is even simpler and more crude. Doubling the strength or telekinesis intensity is considered an increase of one level.
Zhao Chen became a level 7 strong man, and a spiritual evolver, and directly became one of the few strong men in the entire North China Plain.
And Zhao's father is also quite talented, and he can become a level 4 strength evolver, which is rare in the urban area.
At the end of the same year, according to the call to establish a base city, Zhao Chen, as one of the few level 7 evolvers in Yanzhao, led a group of people and headed towards the capital.
In the capital, there is also a level 7 power evolver named Jia Yi.
In early 2017, the first super-large base city in China's vast land rose from the ground. During this period, Zhao Chen and Jia Yi became the two pillars of the north, stationed in the base city.
This year, large-scale base cities were established one after another on the vast land of China, integrating high-level evolutionists at the national level to support each other.
In mid-2018, a super-giant hairy crab appeared in the Dongting Lake basin. Its body was as big as a mountain and even nuclear weapons could not destroy it.
At the critical moment, a man in black, Hong, stepped forward and burst out with power beyond that of a high-level evolver, repelling the monster.
At this point, the first being who surpassed the advanced evolutionists appeared in human history.
The following month, the second high-level evolver appeared on Earth. He was a young Chinese-Indian man who was studying at a famous Chinese university and called himself Thor.
The two beings who surpassed the advanced evolvers joined forces and killed the super crab in the Dongting Lake area.
……
"Hong, Thunder God..."
On the observation deck of the base city, Zhao Chen's laughter was a little hysterical.
Zhao Chen had seen too much about the background of the evolution in the end times in his previous life, until the names Hong and Lei Shen appeared, it was like a bolt of thunder, illuminating his past and present lives.
"It's ridiculous that I don't know whether my life is false or real."
The voices and smiles of his younger sister and mother flashed before Zhao Chen's eyes.
Boom!
With intense emotions surging and invisible mental power spreading out, the entire lookout tower was out of control, distorted and collapsed.
A shrill alarm sounded instantly, and at the first moment, a figure rushed over from afar, at an extremely fast speed, as if flying close to the ground.
"Old Zhao!"
Jia Yi looked at Zhao Chen with some concern.
"No... I'm fine, I... made a breakthrough!"
Zhao Chen's voice was a little hoarse. He looked up at the starry sky, and boundless fear appeared in his eyes.
When Jia Yi heard what Zhao Chen said, he was stunned.
"Breakthrough, you...became a Level 9 Evolver?"
Jia Yi became a level 9 evolver faster than Zhao Chen, and reached this level at the beginning of the year.
But they are no match for Zhao Chen, because Zhao Chen can control 8 flying knives, each of which can unleash an impact force of about 240 tons.
"Let's go and test it out!"
Jia Yi pulled Zhao Chen to go for the test.
A moment later, the Base City officials issued a new announcement, which made countless Base City residents happy and encouraged.
Zhao Chen, the strongest man in Base City, has made another breakthrough and become a level 9 spiritual evolver. He is also able to control 9 flying knives, each of which can unleash 280 tons of power.
When Zhao Chen goes all out, he can unleash an impact force of more than 2500 tons, which is comparable to the basic strength of beings beyond the level of advanced evolvers, and is known as the third in the world.
