Chapter 1 This Superman Is a Monster!
The dark starry sky.
When meteors drag their long tails of blue phosphorescence, they cut through the dark night.
Falling like fire.
In the end, countless meteorites hit the ground in all directions.
A strange force also followed.
Since then.
The supernatural power in people's imagination is no longer an illusion!
Under the influence of unknown forces.
Various fictional abilities in novels, animations, and movies are constantly being presented in the hands of real people.
These "awakened ones" seem to have inherited the power of a character in a fantasy work.
What makes people feel strange is that most of the fantasy works where the awakened people's abilities come from are some "hot" works.
Such as the genetic warriors of the Super Seminary, the telepaths of the Hunter World, the mutants of the Marvel World...
For this reason, these well-known authors in the entertainment field began to feel miserable.
They were taken away, investigated, and interrogated one by one.
In this case, no one will tell you anything about humanitarianism.
Most of them have to peel off the skin.
Among them, a mahjong player who works part-time as a cartoonist is the most miserable.
It is said that I will not be able to engage in the career of "playing mahjong" in the future. It is really pitiful!
Fans laughed and expressed regret over this.
Of course, what happened to the "authors" is just a small episode.
On this ordinary and ordinary blue star where no supernatural power has ever appeared...
From the moment the "Awakened One" appeared in the world, it gradually collapsed!
The originally relatively stable order in various regions began to become restless.
The awakened people’s fighting, zero-yuan purchases, the fall into war-torn areas, and even a coup in a certain country have become common news headlines.
And to commemorate the meteor shower that brought strange power.
This day is called "Awakening Day".
The internationally accepted almanac has since reset to zero and started recalculating.
The year name of "AD" was also changed to "Awakening".
In the first year, which is the first year of the awakening calendar.
As the awakened ones continue to appear.
In just a few months, the policies of various countries have changed from fully concealing it to laissez-faire.
The status of the Awakened, who were initially regarded as experimental subjects, was quickly improved and became a necessary military reserve for powerful countries.
On TV, the news channels that broadcast various bizarre accidents gradually became more upright.
Less than a year later, the words "Awakened One" officially appeared in the print media.
It’s a final conclusion!
As a result, the attitude of ordinary people towards it has changed from being dubious at first to becoming a hot topic of discussion in their free time.
Even in the blind date market, awakened people have become an extremely sought-after resource.
…
Awakening calendar 3 years.
A coup led by the Awakened attracted the attention of countries around the world.
In fact, it is not uncommon for awakened people to compete for power in their own countries.
This is not the first time.
But who made the country where this coup took place so special?
As the "pole" among the countries in the world, many people want to see how it will fare against the awakened ones.
With its strong national power, it is unlikely that there will be any big problems.
But at least, you have to be disgraced for a while, right?
However, the result was quite surprising.
The coup was successful!
Although I know that the effect of modern military on these individuals who control supernatural powers may be very unsatisfactory.
But no one expected that it would be so powerless.
That was almost a massacre of ordinary soldiers by the awakened ones!
finally.
Although the awakened organization failed to completely take over the entire country, it became the true ruler of one of the states.
In other places, there are gradually signs of listening to the announcement but not to the tune.
In this incident, the inability of modern weapons controlled by ordinary people to fight against powerful awakened people was fully exposed.
Many awakened people around the world have been touched.
Blue Star's original order, which was no longer peaceful, became increasingly chaotic.
In this situation of frequent chaos, the status of the awakened ones has been further improved.
same year.
There are rumors circulating in the academic world, claiming that the reason and origin of the emergence of the Awakened Ones will soon be proven.
Ordinary people will also be expected to become members of mutants, new humans, and awakened people.
As soon as this statement came out, it quickly spread to every corner of the world.
…
Awakening calendar 5 years.
With the support of papers and experimental data published by countless scholars, the enlightenment of awakened people has been confirmed.
The scientific community has officially determined that the meteor shower five years ago brought mysterious power and awakened people.
The meteorites that are the "last gifts" of the meteor shower are called "awakening stones."
According to the official statement, this is for commemoration? !
But then, more and more people revealed the news on social platforms.
They claim that as long as they touch those awakening stones that contain mysterious power, ordinary people will have the opportunity to become awakened.
And in some secret shopping malls and underground black markets, sky-high price rewards for buying back these meteorites have quietly appeared.
During this year, rumors related to the Awakening Stone have intensified.
Its function on the Internet has also changed from a function that can make people awaken, and finally became a magical stone that can make people immortal.
In reality, countless people rush into the mountains and forests, trying to find a crazy awakening stone.
Not just for the sky-high remuneration, but also for the coveted extraordinary power.
Until 2 years later, the awakening calendar is 7 years.
A city federation dominated by the Awakened, announced the true role of the Awakening Stone.
Can people become immortal? rumor!
Can ordinary people become awakened? reality!
But this is not a 100% chance, and even the chance of successful awakening is less than 1%.
But compared to the original situation where no single awakened person could be picked among tens of thousands of people...
The probability of awakening after touching the Awakening Stone is much higher.
After the true function of the Awakening Stone was announced to the public, a spokesperson for the city's federation stated that residents of this city have the opportunity to touch the Awakening Stone and gain the opportunity to awaken.
Young students can only awaken after passing the college entrance examination.
It also created the first dedicated Awakened University to teach people to learn to use, understand and develop superpowers.
Foreign residents will also have the opportunity to awaken when they meet certain conditions.
At the same time, elites from all walks of life are welcome to move to this city.
In order to remain competitive, other countries and city-states had no choice but to follow suit.
After this battle, Blue Star officially entered the era of awakeners.
…
Awakening calendar year 11.
That is four years after the official announcement of the role of the Awakening Stone.
After four years of development, the number of awakened people has surged from less than one million to fifty million.
It has increased by as much as fifty times.
However, the number of awakened ones has increased, but the quality has not improved much.
Awakened people who awaken by touching the Awakening Stone are no less than "innate awakened people".
But there seems to be an upper limit to the strength of the awakened ones, which leads to this result.
At present, the most destructive awakened beings are what netizens refer to as "city-destroying level".
A full blow is far less shocking than a large-yield intercontinental missile.
But what makes the Awakened so difficult is not their destructive power and lethality.
Rather, it lies in various abilities, such as typical mind control.
This has led to the current situation where most of Blue Star's political powers are dominated by awakened people.
However, there is an upper limit to the abilities of the Awakened. Perhaps this is something to be thankful for? !
At least, everyone won't worry about the terrible situation that due to the fight between some powerful awakened people...the whole Blue Star will be destroyed.
It is also because of this that some people assert that the abilities of characters who frequently destroy heaven and earth in novels, comics, film and television works such as Marvel, Dragon Ball, and Journey to the West can never awaken in reality.
Because these are not scientific at all!
Many people agree with this conclusion.
It's almost tacit and acquiesced.
Until Superman in DC comics, the Kryptonian's obviously super-super powers appeared in reality...
This "common sense" in people's perception has been officially broken.
And as soon as it was learned that someone had awakened DC Superman, there was naturally a wave of public opinion around the world.
However, for a period of time afterwards, no information related to the Awakened Superman came out.
Therefore, the news that someone had awakened Superman was regarded as a rumor and was quickly put to rest.
But three months later, people were shocked to see the figure of "Superman" on various news headlines.
And his remarks about preparing to rule the world!
Then, in just one afternoon.
While the people were still stunned, the federations of various countries united through simple talks.
Very quickly and decisively, the agreement of the offensive and defensive alliance was concluded.
However, this so-called anti-Superman Alliance was eventually annihilated by the parties involved at a faster speed.
The whole process was like a bunch of ants fighting against a god.
Just as the remaining people in power were preparing to welcome the tall figure descending from the sky accompanied by a roaring sonic boom;
When you accept His judgment and give your loyalty...
That "god" changed his mind and stopped playing!
Does he seem to have lost interest in the dominance game?
In short, the "Superman" finally returned to his own territory and his own city.
But even so.
After witnessing its power, people directly regarded it as a "god".
Secretly, there is also a saying with unknown meaning circulating:
"This Superman is a monster!"
