Chapter 1 Tokyo Dragon

Chapter 1 Tokyo Dragon

December 15th, China, Shangshi City, Shangshi High School.

[The evolution game has been loaded and is being carried out simultaneously around the world]

"What's that noise..." Anson Lu was stunned for a moment. He looked around and everyone seemed to have heard the same sound as him. They all showed surprised and strange expressions.

There was a commotion in the classroom.

"Did you hear that? What was that sound just now?"

"I don't know. If you hadn't told me, I would have thought I was hallucinating."

"Evolution game?"

"Was that a broadcast?" Anson Lu observed the surroundings with his peripheral vision and scratched his cheek in confusion. "But the monthly exam is tomorrow, the school shouldn't make such a mess, right..."

At this moment, the cold, mechanical female voice sounded in Anson Lu's ears again.

His whole body went cold and he shivered.

[Now let me introduce the evolutionary game mode. Every half a month, all players with a career sequence will be forced to enter a game dungeon. The dungeon may be a player confrontation dungeon, an adventure survival dungeon, etc.]

[Also, every six months, the World Boss will descend on Earth, and all players with a professional sequence will be teleported to a specific city to fight the Boss.]

[It is predicted that the first world boss will appear in Tokyo, Japan]

[Now showing a preview of the World Boss]

A blue panel appeared in front of everyone in the classroom, and a video quickly started playing on the panel.

The location of the video is Tokyo, Japan.

Shortly after dusk, the setting sun sank into the horizon, taking away the remaining afterglow from the earth. The world turned gray. Soon after, neon lights lit up one after another in various parts of Tokyo like fallen dominoes.

The bustling night scene is brightly lit. The dark skyscrapers stand side by side like giants. The elevated railway casts bright sparks when the train passes by. The streets are crowded with people, and the light of neon lights sways and splashes.

What should have been a very beautiful scene was shattered by a dragon roar that shook the sky.

"roar!!!"

A roar loud enough to shatter the eardrums was heard, and a giant dragon covered with white scales appeared high in the moonlit sky.

There is also an incredibly long blood bar on its head. Anyone who has played the game will know: this ridiculously long blood bar is the health value of this dragon.

"No..." Anson Lu stared at the video screen, with light trembling in the depths of his eyes, "What the hell is this?"

The next moment, the dragon in the video folded its wings and fell to the earth like a snow-white meteorite.

It was like a comet wrapped in the aurora, dragging a mixture of red and white light, smashing into the earth squarely, with an unstoppable force, crushing the world-famous Tokyo Sky Tree and all the high-rise buildings around the Tokyo Sky Tree into ashes and dust, turning them into a wasteland.

This extremely white comet, like the aloof Poseidon, the god of the sea, brings with it an irresistible gray ocean, sweeping, swallowing, covering and infecting everything wherever it goes.

Anson Deer stared in fascination. It seemed that nothing in the world was more dazzling than this comet with a mixture of countless colors, as if all the light was gathered into this beam of light.

Tokyo was as dark as ink, and everything was silent.

There was no sound, no light, just like the moment of deathly silence before a nuclear bomb exploded, a moment of darkness, and then a loud bang that was loud enough to burst the eardrums.

“Bang!!!!”

Sand within a radius of hundreds of meters was completely blown into the sky, and dust covered half of the sky.

Japan's capital is like an oil painting immersed in the deep sea. All the colors are disintegrated in that instant, as if God has taken away the seasoning plate of the world.

Anson Lu was stunned and suddenly felt that the comic book in his hand was boring.

“No buddy, just look at how we beat this Boss yourself?” The realism of this scene was so strong that it didn’t seem like it was produced by AI at all. Instead, it seemed like a real historical fact that happened in Tokyo, Japan.

The panel quickly disappeared, and in its place, that cold voice sounded again.

[This is the world boss that will appear in half a year. All players are welcome to challenge it. ]

"Challenge your sister! Is this something that a human can do?" Anson Lu's eyes twitched.

[In order to select excellent humans, individual data is being analyzed and tested. 】

[Detection scope: Shangshi High School. ]

[The data analysis for Shangshi High School has been completed. The Evolution Game will give priority to selecting humans with "transcendent talents" in a certain field (reminder: the detection scope is "talent", not "ability in the current corresponding field")]

"What the hell..." Anson Lu closed the anime magazine, "Analysis?"

The beeping continues.

[Currently, a selected human has appeared, his name is: Anson Deer]

Anson Deer was shocked: "What the hell?"

No...what's going on? Only one person was chosen from the entire school, and it was me. What have I done to deserve this, sister?

[Anson Lu’s (specialty) talent lies in the field of - chess. ]

[Talent is judged as: Transcendent level, there is only one person in the world, and he has monopolized a career sequence. ]

Ah, chess?

A super talent? There is only one person in the world?

Anson Lu stood there in a daze. If he wasn't thick-skinned, he would have dug out three living rooms and six rooms with his toes by now.

However, he is really good at chess. He even won the provincial chess league championship in junior high school. No matter what kind of chess he plays in the community, he is "invincible and has no rivals."

What’s funny is that even though he was playing international chess, those old men and women thought he won a prize for traditional chess.

After being defeated, those uncles and aunts all shouted, "Luzi, you are definitely a good chess player. Since you are not good at studying anyway, why don't you play chess and win glory for your country?"

Every time, Anson Lu would touch the back of his head, wave his hands with a dry laugh and say, "Lucky, lucky, you guys are really good at chess, I only know a little bit about chess, I was able to beat you just by luck."

He knew in his heart that games like chess and go require a lot of investment to cultivate from a young age, and it would be ridiculous to learn them when you reach a certain age.

But Anson Lu doesn't have that kind of capital.

His parents died in a car accident when he was young. Fortunately, he was adopted by his cousin's family and had a way to make a living.

In recent years, he was even afraid to eat, so how could he dare to talk about these things with his uncle and aunt? However, he gave all the prize money he won in that Go league to his aunt, without leaving a single cent.

[Based on Anson Lu's unique situation, a unique extraordinary career sequence has been created: Old Chess Player]

[It has been detected that there are no other humans with extraordinary talents in Shangshi High School. A test is being generated for "Anson Deer". 】

"Anson Deer...did she just say Anson Deer?!"

"How is that possible? The guy who was just punished by the class teacher to do a month of duty?"

"What the hell is going on! Beyond-level chess, he also knows this kind of advanced stuff?"

Everyone in the classroom turned their eyes to him. According to their usual behavior, not many people would pay attention to this poor boy with the worst grades.

"No way..." Anson Lu's face twitched slightly, "Is it true?"

【Tests on human "Anson Deer" have been generated. 】

【Rules: General rules of chess. 】

【Location: Class 3 (4) of Shangshi Senior High School. 】

[Introduction: Use the classroom as a chessboard, select 16 students from Anson Lu's class, and these 16 students will become 16 white chess pieces held by Anson Lu.]

[16 hostile black chess pieces will appear soon. Defeat your opponents and complete the test, and you will be able to awaken the unique career sequence in the evolution game - the old chess player. ]

The entire teaching building, and even the entire school, was in an uproar. No one could explain where the sound came from, but everyone remembered the name 'Anson Deer'.
