Chapter 548 Chaotic Era (Filming in progress) The sky was pale white, and countless cold silver cities hung in the clouds.
With rapid advancements in technology and years of development, pollution on Earth's surface has reached unprecedented levels. This blue planet has finally been abandoned by humankind.
Humanity ventured into space, wandering, roaming, and settling amidst the vast Milky Way. The cloud cities on Earth, as humanity's last foothold before migrating to space, were preserved, becoming ancient ruins museums. Meanwhile, the vast landmass became a center for processing cosmic waste.
Oceans, land, mountains—every corner of the earth is piled high with silvery garbage. In this technological age, nothing is wasted. Before being discarded, this garbage has already undergone its final resource extraction. Its energy, color, and organic components have long been drained, leaving only a frail shell struggling to stay afloat.
The Earth's surface is covered with this silvery-white debris. From a great distance in space, it looks like small snow-capped mountains or silvery waves.
People living in this era don't understand why Earth was once called "Blue Star." It should have been Silver Star, Snow Star, or Frost Star.
The sea has long since dried up, the snow-capped mountains have long since melted away, and the earth is barren.
Today, only four types of organisms survive on the ground: ancient rats, ancient ants, ancient cockroaches, and...
Human rebels.

"I still stand by my previous opinion; let Lao Lu keep it." An old man with oddly dressed, neither entirely ancient nor entirely Western, said, "I've done some calculations; Lao Lu's birth chart shows Ren and Gui in power, with overlapping Killing and Official stars; Yin can absorb water, transforming the Killing star into a life force..."
“Hey! Chinese,” a dark-skinned young man sneered, “stop making trouble here!”
Another young man who looked exactly like him chimed in, "Don't try to fool people with things from your grandma's era."
The young man continued, "Even a translator can't translate the nonsense you're spouting!"
The two brothers spoke back and forth as if they were telepathically connected; although they were two people, it was as if they were talking as one.
The four people each spoke three different languages, yet they communicated with each other without any difficulty.
"Young man, what's the rush?" the old man chuckled strangely. "Do you want me to calculate your birth charts? Sometimes, a difference of just a few minutes in your birth dates can make all the difference—"
"Old Zhao," a gaunt-looking middle-aged man snapped, "say less."
“Old Lu,” Old Zhao took off the translator and mouthed to him, “these people are unreliable.”
