Battlefield of Civilization: From the Bottom to the First Citizen

Chapter 2 Superpowers

Energy-generating agents are necessities for life in the future space age.

Of course, they may appear in different forms, but at their core they are all the same thing—high-purity absorbable energy.

Source energy crystals from source energy beasts are low-purity source energy agents, and require an absorption and conversion method to be absorbed or used more effectively.

Not to mention the energy sources in outer space.

The future of Blue Star lies in the discovery of the method for making source energy potions among the gradually discovered relics of 'prehistoric' civilization, which gradually led to Blue Star civilization regaining control over its races.

Otherwise, if the Source Energy Beasts manage to take over first, then the Blue Star civilization will become a beast-based civilization.

Using the heat to completely evaporate the moisture from his clothes, Wu Ou dismembered the energy beast, which was large enough to fit two of him, and gradually swallowed it.

It's not that he's a glutton or has pica, enjoying swallowing raw flesh and bones; it's related to his special ability.

Under the influence of the energy tides, humanity's previously halted evolutionary progress has finally resumed.

The most common path is to absorb source energy and gradually strengthen oneself as a source energy warrior.

Secondly, there is the enhancement of mental strength, which strengthens the individual's thinking speed and the scientist's path of mastering the shaping power of source energy.

Finally, there is the path of the superhuman, which is relatively rare in the universe.

Because those with superpowers are beings who only have the opportunity to awaken when such a full-scale energy tide occurs in the universe.

According to rumors later circulated in the universe, the superpowers of those with special abilities are actually the result of the influence of the universe's fundamental rules projected during the era of energy tides.

In theory, every superhuman has the opportunity to eventually evolve their abilities to the level of the origin of the universe.

But such rumors are best taken with a grain of salt.

Although Wu Ou had never met any superhumans from advanced civilizations before his rebirth, the strongest superhumans from those famous mid-level civilizations were only at level five.

The rating of a superpower is calculated based on the energy consumption rate. In other words, the less energy is consumed per activation, the higher the rating of the superpower.

The lowest level, Level 1, which is Wu Ou's own ability level, is one to one.

The ratio increases tenfold for each level you advance.

Before his rebirth, he had witnessed a level four ability user effortlessly create a high-temperature fireball the size of the moon, which destroyed the main spaceship of an exiled civilization in one move.

I have also seen a level four cosmic energy beast, relying on its level three superpowers, fight against a team of level four energy mech warriors with a strength of a thousand, and almost wipe them out.

In some exchanges between civilizations, in addition to the most direct civilization rating, the highest-rated superhumans are also considered as "civilization-level" weapons.

All of this is enough to demonstrate the impact of a person with superpowers truly growing up.

Another point is that whether Blue Star civilization is now or will enter the early stages of the universe in the future, it is a development plan centered on people with superpowers.

Before contact with other civilizations, being a superhuman could still bring some advantages within the Blue Star civilization.

Having been reborn, he not only wanted to live well himself, but also wanted to change the fate of Blue Star civilization, which had failed in this competition and become an exiled civilization.

"Pooh!"

He took another bite, spitting out the 'nutritious meat' that had been dehydrated and integrated with energy within his body, and then put it into his backpack.

There wasn't even a trace of blood left where the Source Beast had fallen.

Brushing the snow off his clothes, Wu Ou continued walking to the right.

In the woods, there was a clearing that had clearly been cleared.

Three RVs, along with stacked logs, formed a simple campsite.

Under the makeshift shed, two strips of meat were being roasted on a stove made from a metal tube.

The car door was pushed open, and the head of an eleven or twelve-year-old child peeked out.

"Dad, is the meat ready yet?"

"Almost done, almost done! Linlin, go back quickly, don't catch a cold!" The man who was grilling the meat called out as he turned around, his voice carrying a gentle smile.

"Oh! Mom has cooked the noodles, now it's just you left!" the little girl said, then shrank back inside.

Those who have survived to this day, whether they are elderly people over eighty or children under five, have all undergone the baptism and tempering of the source energy.

Even if it doesn't reach the fifth level standard and generate flowing energy, it still has basic resistance to the current ambient temperature of minus twenty degrees Celsius.

But as a parent, especially a father, how can he not worry about his child, especially a lovely daughter!

Some mechanical sounds came from the opposite RV, and half of the door slid upwards while the other half fell downwards, forming a small staircase on the ground.

One foot tentatively peeked out from inside, paused on the stairs for a few seconds, and then slowly walked down.

"Hmm! This time it's not bad, except it still takes a bit longer to open..."

"Uncle Hu, you're still thinking about your secret staircase!" The man looked at the old man who came out and couldn't help but sigh inwardly, thinking that this disaster had some benefits after all.

Take Mr. Hu across from me, for example. He is 75 years old now. Normally, an elderly person of this age would have many age-related illnesses, if not half-buried.

Those who can live a normal life and take care of themselves are considered to have saved their children a lot of trouble.

Many of them require special care, and their chronic illnesses flare up from time to time, requiring hospitalization and incurring expenses.

If someone gets seriously ill and becomes bedridden and needs care, they will suddenly become a major expense for the family.

But what happens after the disaster?

This elderly man, who has a university degree, is skilled in factory work, and enjoys doing some carpentry work in his neighborhood, did not succumb to illness like many other seniors. Instead, after two days of fever, he seemed to be more than ten years younger.

Not only was his physique as agile as that of a middle-aged man, but his carpentry skills also seemed to have "mutated."

He can make all sorts of ingenious little mechanisms with simple tools.

The toys he uses to amuse children are all small, such as crossbows with the power of pistols, foldable shields, and auxiliary mechanical arms. It seems that his craftsmanship is getting better and better, just like those "high-tech" DIY bloggers I used to see online.

He remembered very clearly that when he was young, this guy only helped make furniture in the neighborhood and didn't show any particular skill!

"Ha! What do you know, kid? Technology is power! Without the crossbow I made, where would you have hunted venison!" Grandpa Hu walked back and forth twice more, and only after he felt there were no problems did he turn it off.

"Yes, yes, you're really skilled! But this thing is only good for hunting. If you really encounter those evolved beings or those powerful camps, it won't be a threat at all!" The man said with a smile as he cut off half of a piece of roasted meat and gave it to Grandpa Hu.

Grandpa Hu took the meat strips, but a hint of disdain flashed in his eyes.

"Heh, those people don't value technology. We'll settle the score with them when their guns have all turned into firewood!"
