MTL - Infinite Throne-Chapter 1 Tower Era 2121
Chapter 1 Tower Era 2121
"Humans have conquered the sky for thousands of years, but on this day, the sky has become a forbidden area for God..."
On the podium, Pharaoh read aloud.
Irin yawned and turned to look out the window.
In that direction, far, far away, there is a tower soaring into the clouds with no end in sight.
"Irin!"
Accompanied by the teacher's roar, a short piece of electronic pen smashed onto Irin's forehead with unparalleled precision.
"Ouch!"
The strength of this electronic pen smashed a red packet out of Yi Rin's forehead.
Wang Fenbi, male, 40 years old, unmarried, withdrawn, irritable, small stomach, it is said that the "spirit" attribute is as high as 3.2, and the throwing accuracy is as high as 93%.
"Irin, stand up!"
Yi Rin heard the words, rubbed her red forehead that was smashed, a hint of helplessness flashed in her eyes, and stood up slowly.
"Irin, answer this question! Humans have conquered the sky for thousands of years, but on this day, the sky has become a forbidden area for gods... Which day does the day I just said refer to? "
Irin sighed.
Then he looked at the distant horizon, the towering grey tower.
"You don't understand, right? If you don't understand..."
The old king on the podium saw Yi Rin's reaction, he just straightened his face and wanted to reprimand him, but Yi Rin gave the answer leisurely.
“November 11, 2111…”
Pharaoh's expression turned cold, and he silently squeezed another piece of the electronic pen.
"This answer that the whole world knows, I think Teacher Wang is definitely not satisfied."
Yi Rin's voice changed, and the electronic pen that Old Wang wanted to throw out was forcibly taken back.
Yilin smiled slightly and continued: "On November 11, 2111, four giant pagodas appeared on the earth out of thin air, but in our country, there are more than 200 million in Jiaoyan, Chuan, and Xizhou provinces where the giant pagodas appeared. The population evaporated out of thin air…”
"At 23:00 that night, 3422 artificial satellites from outer space fell to the earth at the same time, triggering the most 'spectacular' meteor shower landscape in human history... This night was called 'starfall night' in history. One day, mankind completely lost air supremacy."
"And from the date of November 11, 2111 AD, many people proposed as the beginning of a new era... Tower Era."
"But considering the source of this original sentence, it came from the paper "To the Sky that Humans Will Lose" published by Molly, a researcher of tower science, in the journal "Creation" on January 5, 2114. This paper, through various data and experiments, confirmed the real existence of the 'no air zone' above 3,000 meters."
"So the answer Mr. Wang wants should be January 5, 2114."
Having said that, Yi Rin looked at Pharaoh calmly.
Pharaoh's eyes widened, he would have imagined that the students, who usually do not make a sound and seem to be honest and friendly, actually have a certain understanding of "Tower Science".
"Mr. Wang, can I sit down?"
"Cough cough!" Old Wang coughed twice to hide the embarrassment in his heart. With a straight face, he clapped his hands: "Student Yilin is serious and eager to learn, and has a deep understanding of the history of tower studies, which is worth encouraging! Yilin Students, sit down."
"Thank you, teacher."
Irin calmly sat back in her seat.
This little episode did not interrupt the enthusiasm of Pharaoh's class. He pressed the button to clear the content on the screen and started writing again with the electronic pen.
"This day is the biggest disaster in human history, but at the same time, it is also the beginning of a new human civilization..."
Irin's eyes drifted out of the window involuntarily again, as if staring at the gray giant tower through endless time and space.
Hearing the old king at the lecture table speaking with great interest, Yi Rin shook his head. This is the "reality" currently recognized by human beings.
…
After class, Yi Rin packed up his textbooks and prepared to leave.
A tall figure walked up to Irin.
Yi Rin raised his head and looked, with a bright smile on his face: "Brother Yang, it's you, what's the matter?"
While speaking, Yi Rin silently recited the name of the future person three times in his heart.
Henry Zhang, Henry Zhang, Henry Zhang.
"Hehe, Xiao Rin, shouldn't you want to study Kao Ta in the future?" Henry Zhang leaned on Yi Rin's shoulders and asked with a smile.
"Yeah..." Yi Rin put the book in her hand into her bag, and then smiled helplessly: "I heard that the country needs a large number of professionals to study 'Tower Science'. Studying a major will reduce the total attribute requirements, um... It is one more hope."
"Also, who made Xiao Rin just an ordinary person..." Henry Zhang's eyes flashed a trace of disdain, but his face was even wider, patted Yi Rin's shoulder hard, and then changed his tone: "By the way, today's historical homework …”
As he said, before Yi Rin agreed, Henry Zhang stuffed a thick stack of homework into Yi Rin's schoolbag.
"Oh...homework! It doesn't matter, wrap it on me!" Yi Rin happily put away the homework that Henry Zhang had stuffed over.
"It really deserves to be my good friend of Henry Zhang. Don't worry, Brother Yang, I am a genius with strength, agility, and mental measurements over 10.0. In the future, I will be Henry Zhang, and I will not miss you."
Irin laughed: "Yeah, who made us good friends. If Brother Yang has nothing else to do... I'll go first."
Irin finished packing and was about to leave the classroom with a thick schoolbag on his back.
When walking out of the door, Yi Rin suddenly remembered something: "By the way, Brother Yang, I think the weather is not right. It might rain heavily tonight, remember to close the doors and windows. Bye~"
Henry Zhang looked at the back of Yi Rin leaving.
Until Yi Rin left completely, Henry Zhang spat out two words with disdain on his face.
"idolt."
…
…
"Welcome home, Irin."
"It is July 8, 2121, 18:30."
The moment Irin opened the door, the lights and air in the whole house were purified and started to operate automatically.
A sweet but unfeeling electro-synth sounded.
Yi Rin casually threw his schoolbag aside: "Xiaoyi, help me warm up a quick and nutritious meal, flavor B, eat it in 30 minutes."
"This is for you, Irin."
Irin looked up at the electronic screen.
and bowed his head.
raised his head again.
bowed his head again
over and over again.
Confirmed six times.
Today is indeed July 8, 2121.
Even the AI housekeeper makes mistakes. If it is normal, it will be wrong.
But today.
Never allow any errors to occur.
"About 3 hours left."
Irin nodded calmly and went to the gym.
In the gym, the floor is actually full of dummies.
The body of the dummy is covered with deep and shallow scratches, but these scratches are more concentrated in the neck, the center, and are deeply dented.
There are even some dummies, which are split in two from the neck, which looks a bit scary.
Irin came to the strength tester with a blank face.
With all his strength, he threw a punch.
"120KG!"
Soon, a cold number flashed on the screen of the strength tester.
"It's only 120KG... It should be around 2.0 in terms of strength attributes."
Irin's expression didn't change.
He came to the speed tester again.
After pressing the button, countless small **** are shot from the barrel.
Irin focused on it, and quickly slapped the small ball in the air with the palm of his hand.
"I missed 5...Agility is about 3.0? But it may not be very accurate...but it's enough."
Irin nodded in satisfaction, then stopped wasting energy and walked out of the gym.
Irin finished taking a shower, changed into clean clothes, took out a quick and nutritious meal at just the right temperature from the microwave, and ate it in big gulps.
Although it is a nutritious meal, it looks like a mysterious paste. As for the taste…
that's not important.
…
A few years ago, the chief scientist of the Dragon Kingdom invented a magical instrument that can classify human talents into three major attributes, "strength", "agility" and "spirit", and measure specific values.
Among them, the level of strength attributes is related to muscle strength, physical explosiveness, physique, cell activity, etc.
Agility is related to various factors such as reaction speed, running speed, and sensitivity.
As for mental attributes, it is equivalent to a comprehensive score of various abilities such as memory, calculation, observation, understanding, and abstract thinking.
The emergence of the attribute tester has completely changed all talent selection systems in human society.
Since then, all schools and units have canceled the "examination" system, and replaced it with an attribute tester to test the "three dimensions" attributes to evaluate each person's talent potential.
Even five years ago, the state announced to the whole country two ancient fitness martial arts, "Strengthening the Body" and "Longyoubu", which have been handed down since the Ming Dynasty. As long as you can continue to exercise, you can steadily improve your strength and agility attributes. It set off an upsurge of national martial arts.
Just like Qingcheng High School where Irin is located, the physical education class takes up half of the time.
According to the data released by professional researchers, the measurements of ordinary people are all below 3.0.
Strength and agility attributes can be steadily improved by exercising the strengthening technique and dragon walk, but the increase is related to talent.
A single attribute value that exceeds 3.0 is excellent, and if it exceeds 4.0, it is genius.
And Yilin went through an official authoritative "preliminary test" three years ago. The three dimensions were... Strength 1.5, Agility 1.8, Spirit 2.9.
And the final comment turned out to be—
"Ordinary ordinary people."
…
20:00.
Irin only did one thing, and practiced the strengthening technique twice.
Promote digestion.
Under the condition that the nutritious meal provides enough energy, the excessive feeling of fullness should not affect the flexibility of the body.
8 points full, just right.
One more point, one less point is not enough.
Too tired, too lazy, too full, too hungry.
He has tried hundreds of times, eating a nutritious meal, and practicing twice a tonic after an hour.
"Just right." Yi Rin is well aware that he has a slight obsessive-compulsive disorder, especially when it comes to numbers. But it doesn't matter, these don't affect the overall situation.
20:10.
It rained outside the house, as in my memory, it was a heavy rain that day.
Seeing the rainstorm coming as scheduled, Irin finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Over the past three years, he has not even dared to spit on the side of the road.
I was afraid that this mouthful of phlegm would cause some unpredictable butterfly effect, which led to the day of July 8, 2121, from heavy rain to sunny.
20:30.
Irin emptied his bladder completely.
He pulled out the black waterproof sweater he had prepared three years ago from under the bed and put it on his body.
I dug out another box from the toilet that had been dusty for three years.
Gloves, masks.
And one more…
Brand new dagger.
Under the desk drawer, Yi Rin tore it hard, pulled it, and took out the small paper bag that was stuck to the bottom with tape.
A small, square and light paper bag.
Irin carefully opened the paper package, and there was only a small card, blank on both sides, and nothing.
But Irin carefully placed the blank card close to her body.
"Let's go."
When Irin was ready, he walked out of the house, left the community, and disappeared into the rainstorm in a blink of an eye.
