Chapter 1

Time: May 12, 2076

Location: Zhonghai City

Zhonghai City is an international metropolis. Even though it was already 7 PM and the streetlights were on, the city was as bright as daylight.

Zhao Feng walked leisurely along the roadside, standing out from the hurried crowds around him.

Zhao Feng didn't pay much attention to this and continued his slow walk home, occasionally glancing at the giant advertising screens on the walls of the surrounding buildings.

In the past, these screens mostly displayed ads for luxury items like watches and clothes. Now, they were dominated by vibrant game scenes.

Among these screens, some showed grand battle scenes with thousands of people fighting. Although there was no sound, the countless sword clashes still managed to stir the hidden passion deep within people's souls!

Other screens displayed idyllic scenes, with lush trees, blooming flowers, and various animals and birds that had long been extinct in reality, playing and flying around, making people yearn for the eternal right to live in such a place!

It was a feast for the eyes!

Creation!

This was a game that was unknown to the world just two months ago but quickly swept the globe after its launch a month ago!

Although it was just a game, its origin was significant!

Virtual reality technology first appeared around 2030, initially experienced by only a small group of people. As time passed and the technology matured, it was soon applied to games, attracting countless eyes.

However, after more than 30 years of development, the best virtual technology could only provide 50% of the real feeling.

Creation, with its significant origin, was not the product of a single company but a creation of the state!

And not just one state, but a joint development by the top ten countries worldwide, including China!

It provided a 100% real feeling, not the vague 50%!

This meant that if you stood inside the game, you wouldn't feel like you were in a game. You would feel like you were living in another world!

A new world built from data!

Creating another world where humans could live! This was the origin of the name "Creation"!

If you thought that 100% virtual reality was its selling point, you would be wrong!

Its true selling point was intelligence!

Artificial intelligence!

The official announcement from the Creation Group, formed by over ten countries, stated that once Creation was launched, it would be entirely maintained and operated by artificial intelligence, and no one could privately modify the game data!

Moreover, there was no beta or public testing; it was directly released to the public! Any bugs found could be exploited!

Not only that, the game's map was a hundred times larger than the real Earth! Each country's game map was ten times the actual area of the country, including the sea!

With such a vast map, there were countless resources, and no matter what kind of personality you had, you could find endless fun in it!

Although Zhao Feng was only 25 years old, minus two months, he was a relatively experienced gamer and a well-known game expert.

For a game full of infinite possibilities, he naturally couldn't let it go! On the first day the game opened, he became one of its players.

Looking at the various game scenes on the screens, he recalled his experiences in the game over the past month.

The 100% virtual experience indeed had many surprising aspects.

At this moment, Zhao Feng suddenly heard a very faint wailing sound.

The sound was very weak, even softer than a fly's buzz, and in the bustling street with cars and people, it was hard for ordinary people to hear.

But Zhao Feng heard it clearly!

The wailing was very urgent and was a woman's voice!

After considering for two seconds, Zhao Feng turned and walked down a smaller side road. After a few turns, he appeared in a dimly lit alley about one meter wide.

The sound was still there, but it was separated by a small wall about twenty meters high in the middle of the alley!

The wailing was weakening and moving away. Without hesitation, Zhao Feng used his legs to push off the walls on both sides, leaping up and easily reaching the top of the 20-meter-high wall.

At this moment, he clearly saw the situation on the other side.

Five burly men in black suits and sunglasses were nervously leaning against the wall of the alley. Each of them had a gun, and one even had a submachine gun!

One of them was holding a beautiful woman in a purple evening gown, with fair skin and a delicate oval face.

The woman was very young, around 23 or 24 years old, and her mouth was covered by the man's large hand, only allowing her to make wailing sounds.

Seeing the woman's appearance, Zhao Feng was taken aback.

Not because of her beauty, but because he recognized her!

"I didn't expect it to be her," Zhao Feng thought, somewhat surprised. He looked at the woman again and found her even more beautiful than on TV. Considering her outstanding talent, it was no wonder she had achieved her current status.

"Probably she doesn't remember the country bumpkin from ten years ago," Zhao Feng smiled wryly. Without saying more, he spread his fingers and suddenly pinched a brick beside him.

If someone had been there, they would have been shocked. The hard brick, in Zhao Feng's hands, was like tofu, and he silently pinched off a large piece!

The piece of brick, about the size of a baby's fist, was crushed into a handful of pebble-sized stones with a single squeeze!

A burst of energy flowed from Zhao Feng's hands, enveloping the dozen small stones. With a wave, the dozen small stones shot down at a speed faster than bullets, instantly enveloping the five burly men!

The five men were all skilled, and they noticed the stones as soon as they were launched. Unfortunately, the stones were too fast!

With a purposeful attack, as they raised their heads to locate the source of the sound, the small stones were already in front of them, giving them no time to dodge, and instantly shattered their heads!

"Bang bang~"

The heads of the five men exploded, and their bodies fell to the ground, splattering the purple-clad woman with blood.

The woman was strong, and after a moment of shock, she quickly regained her composure in the face of the five headless corpses!

Actually, this wasn't the first time she had seen a corpse. Standing at the pinnacle of the world, she enjoyed boundless wealth and attention, but she also saw aspects of reality that ordinary people could hardly reach.

Not to mention corpses, she had even participated in gun battles a few times!

These black-clad men were all highly skilled international mercenaries. If they were ordinary kidnappers, she could have handled them herself!

The martial arts and gun skills she had practiced with great effort were not for play!

Ignoring the blood on her, the woman calmly took a phone from one of the black-clad men and dialed a number.

In less than a minute, several other burly men in black suits rushed over. Their clothes were identical to those of the fallen men, but they were clearly not from the same group.

"Miss Su, what happened?" The black-clad man looked at the five bodies on the ground, his eyes flashing with shock.

The men on the ground were once his comrades, who had betrayed them for money but were still very strong. He never expected them to end up dead here!

"I don't know, they were suddenly killed," a pleasant female voice came from Su Ziyang.

Her voice was like a nightingale's song, clear and ethereal, instantly calming the men who had rushed over, still somewhat agitated and shocked.

Nodding to Su Ziyang, the man waved to the others to set up a defense and went to examine the bodies.

In the shattered heads, he didn't find any bullets but saw brick fragments that didn't belong there!

Looking around, the man quickly noticed the wall separating the two sides of the alley.

A 20-meter height was unattainable for ordinary people, but for him, it wasn't a big deal.

Stepping back a bit, he ran and stepped on the walls on both sides, quickly reaching the top of the wall. Compared to Zhao Feng, his movements were less graceful and less beautiful.

Especially, the force he used to step on the wall was much greater, making a loud thud with each step, while Zhao Feng was like a dragonfly skimming the water, making no sound!

Reaching the top of the wall, the man first saw an empty alley, then he noticed the brick that Zhao Feng had pinched, his pupils instantly contracting!

He also pinched the brick, and with a crack, a large piece of brick broke off. However, the loud sound made his companions behind him look at him with puzzled eyes.

His eyes flickered, and after checking the wall and the alley and finding no other traces, he stepped down.

"Did you find anything?" Su Ziyang's clear and pleasant voice asked again.

The man nodded, "Yes, it seems a master of the Transformation level did this!"

"What? A master of the Transformation level?" Su Ziyang and the man's companions were all incredulous.

It wasn't that they were overreacting, but the event was too shocking!

In reality, martial artists were divided into several levels: Manifest, Concealed, and Transformation!

The Manifest level was reached by those who had practiced for over ten years, with each punch having the force of hundreds of pounds, enough to break an ordinary person's bones!

The Concealed level was reached by those who had practiced for several decades, considered top-tier experts. Concealed strength meant strength within strength, with double or multiple strikes, enough to destroy a tree as thick as a thigh, let alone a human body!

The Transformation level? Those who could skillfully use qi and had already generated "qi" within their bodies! Each of them was a grandmaster!

The black-clad men were highly skilled international mercenaries, top-tier experts at the Concealed level, but in the face of a Transformation-level master with mysterious qi, they were like children, completely helpless!

Only a Transformation-level master, with the help of mysterious qi, could silently break a brick!

"Miss Su, let's leave first," the man suggested, ignoring everyone's shock.

The matter involving a grandmaster at the Transformation level was far beyond his handling.

"Okay," Su Ziyang nodded and quickly left with the men's protection.

Before leaving, the man used a dead man's phone to call the police, believing that the police would handle the bodies.
