Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 8: Origin Energy And Engraving

"Today, the new book rushed to the rankings, I beg everyone's support! Collection! Red tickets, come more violently!"

Ron nodded and waved his hand, causing the youths to run. Occasionally, those who were slow would attract the instructor's whip. The long run ended at six o'clock in the morning when Ron announced that it was over. Then there was breakfast. Breakfast was very sumptuous. Everyone was given enough food to fill their stomachs. Not only was it plentiful, it was also well-matched. There was no lack of drugs that could stimulate human growth, so some things tasted strange.

Many teenagers swallowed their food, and Alan was also starving to death. His physical strength was not bad, otherwise, how could he survive in the harsh wilderness for five years? But Ron's long-distance running almost drained his energy, and the second lieutenant was indeed "looking at him differently". Whenever Allen had a slight lead and slowed down to save his strength, the grinning lieutenant would personally whip over, forcing him to run at full speed.

Just like that, Alan was three laps ahead of this group of youths!

Even the fingers holding the bread were trembling. Alan took a deep breath and suppressed the flames of hunger. He was not in a hurry to force himself to eat the food bit by bit. A few of the youths who were too anxious to eat were already rolling on the ground with their stomachs in their arms. Ron asked the instructor to carry them down and walk among the teenagers, "Remember, when you consume the show, don't eat too much and quickly. That will kill you, especially if you're hungry in the wild for two or three days. It's best to drink only water at first, and keep it under strict control!"

Hearing the second lieutenant's words, these youths suddenly came to a realization. So eating was also a subject of learning.

"After you finish eating, you have 15 minutes to rest, followed by strength training!"

Ron's words caused bitter expressions to appear on the faces of the youths.

Over the next two months, time passed through physical fitness, strength, and other training. Instructors kept attacking, sometimes with whips, sometimes with sticks, sometimes with daggers, and sometimes with bare hands. The drill instructor's attack did not differentiate between time and place, only at night, he would never make a move, that was to ensure that the teenagers had enough time to sleep.

Otherwise, it would not be training, but torture.

Two months passed quickly, and Alan gradually adapted to this kind of life. Many of the skills Ron had taught him were very similar to what he had learned from the snow wolf. However, there were many things that Snow Wolf could not teach him. After all, humans had perfect knowledge inheritance, and Snow Wolf relied more on his own experience. The two were as far apart as clouds and mud.

On the first day of the third month, after breakfast, Ron surprisingly didn't let the teenagers do strength training. Instead, he gathered them in the plaza. After two months of training, six more teenagers were eliminated, leaving 29.

Looking at the remaining teenagers, Ron revealed a signature smile, "Your performance really surpassed my expectations. I originally thought that at least half of them would be wiped out in two months, but I didn't expect that there would be so many left. Congratulations, kids, because you will have the chance to come into contact with the true power of this world!"

"Listen, if you go to those war academies in Babylon. Those long-winded academicians will probably start explaining the principles to you, but this is a training camp. In a few months, one of you lucky ones will have to participate in the death arena. So I don't have that much time to explain it to you. You just need to know. In the world, and even in the entire universe, the true power is called Origin Energy! "

"As for what Origin Energy is, I will give you the most intuitive impression." Second Lieutenant Ron looked up, "But before I do, I have to tell you that there are two major types of Origin Energy. One was cosmic origin energy, the other was life origin energy. As for the specifics, the instructors will give you a manual later. You can read it when you rest. Don't worry about the universe Origin Energy. Not to mention you brats, even the top experts today may not be able to come into contact with this kind of power. It is no longer something that can be grasped through hard work. It requires talent even more. What I need you to touch and grasp is the Origin Energy of life! "

Alan's body trembled slightly. He understood what the light he saw on Bai Fang, Ron, and the others was. If nothing unexpected happened, it should be the life force that the second lieutenant was talking about.

The youth's thoughtful expression fell into Ron's eyes. The second lieutenant smiled and continued, "What is life?" The most superficial explanation was only the explanation after mating between a man and a woman. Is it really that simple? No, there's competition everywhere in the universe. Every life needs to go through a cruel competition. When your father releases the essence of life into your mother's body, you only have tens of millions or even billions of chances of being born! "

"Of the tens of millions of sperms, only the strongest and fastest one can get the chance to combine with the egg and begin the journey of life. In other words, you who are lucky enough to be born carry the best part of your parents' genes." Second Lieutenant Ron paused for a moment, giving the teenagers some time to digest before saying, "The source of life is the energy that elicits the latent energy in our genes." It was extracted, absorbed, and strengthened to distinguish it from mortals. Those who grasp Origin Energy will have a chance to obtain wealth and power that ordinary people will never be able to attain in their entire lives. Origin Energy is both powerful and powerful. Everywhere in the universe is heaven! Without strength, you are just pigs and sheep that are slaughtered by others! "

The second lieutenant's voice was as loud as thunder as if it was the first time they had met, forcefully stuffing every word of his into every youth's head.

Ron raised his right hand. His arm was as thick as a woman's thigh, and his muscles were bulging, crawling with earthworm-like blood vessels. "Then I'll let you kids open your eyes and see what Origin Energy can bring to a person " At this moment, rays of firefly-like light appeared on the second lieutenant's arm. They were extremely faint, but they could be captured by the naked eye of ordinary people. Many of the youths let out soft cries.

These streaks of light flashed across the second lieutenant's arm, forming a pattern that resembled an electronic circuit. In the end, they gathered at the back of the second lieutenant's hand, forming a firefly pattern that looked like a blade.

Second Lieutenant Ron waved the pattern on the back of his hand. "Listen, unlocking the potential of genes is just the first step. In the entire Origin Energy system, we call it the Fire Seed. The spark that ignited the Origin Energy was merely a passport to this vast world. Ignite the fire seed and form a vortex of Origin Energy. At this stage, such a person is called an Origin Energy Cultivator. "

"But don't think it's that amazing. Origin Energy practitioners are only the lowest group in the entire system. In a real war, they were just cannon fodder. What's really useful is to form nine vortexes of Origin Energy like me and condense the first genetic circuit. This will be the most important moment of your lives. The formation of the genetic circuit will cause something like the back of my hand to appear. "We call it engraving!"

"Seal is innate. What kind of seals will be formed is related to your genetic potential. When you form the seal, you will activate the first ability of your life. Next, he would temper his Origin Energy and continuously increase its strength, forming more genetic circuits to fill in his imprints, thereby stimulating more and stronger abilities. Ron waved his hand and said, "Only by doing this will you be able to walk step by step towards the top of the pyramid of the Origin Energy System." Each engraving is unique, just as each of you is unique. "The imprint on my hand is called the Steel Sharp Blade. Its first ability is to make my arm as hard as steel, as sharp as a blade!"

Hearing Ron's explanation, the youths' faces were filled with intoxication. Ron opened the door to a brand new world for them. As for what was behind the door, the youths needed to explore it themselves. Of course, that had to be after they possessed Origin Energy.

At the very least, he had to ignite the Origin Energy spark.

Looking at the teenagers below, Ron said like a wolf that kept throwing out bait and finally revealed its ferocious fangs, "You blissful fellows, if you hadn't participated in this training camp." Even if he spent his entire life, he might not have the opportunity to do so. In seven days, the first batch of enlightenment potions would arrive. It will help you activate your hidden Origin Energy as quickly as possible. It should be noted that this kind of enlightenment potion is extremely harmful to your nervous system. Ordinary people can only use it two to three times. "If you exceed this limit, your neural network will die and become an idiot!"

The youths sucked in a breath of cold air, and Ron's next words caused their excitement to plummet to the bottom.

"Also, in the next two months, you must light the fire seed for me. Before dawn 60 days later, all the trash that cannot light the fire seed will be eliminated!"

In these two months, the teenagers knew that elimination meant death. However, they only had two months left, and they could only use potions three times to activate and ignite the Origin Energy Fire Seed. The time was short, and the difficulty was great. It could be said that there was no such thing before. It was unknown how many of the twenty-nine youths who were standing here would be left in two months.

Predictably, this number would not be large. After all, Origin Energy practitioners were far from flooding.

Next up was strength training. From today onwards, Ron strengthened his training. The standards he had set were always the limits that these youths could reach. The second lieutenant's grasp was so accurate that it even weighed heavily on some special people. Alan, for example, was practically twice as trained as the other teenagers!
