Ch5: The Plan

Chapter 5 - The Plan

Shi Qingyang yearned to be stronger; his biggest ambition in his former life was to slay all those ferocious beasts. This conviction didn't change after he was reborn.

Even though he had been schemed against by others and ended up as a lab rat in the research institute, he was still human, and he couldn't forget the circumstances following his death.

At that time, myriads of mutated insects crashed into the city and flooded the entire capital. Even if the Rad-Warriors had a high tolerance for radiation, the residents of the city were exposed to radiation after the barrier was breached. They also wouldn't have been able to deal with so many beasts.

Finally, there was a huge explosion that devastated the whole city.

This was the largest city in China. What chance did other cities have if it fell? Would humanity be able to survive?

Shi Qingyang had no idea why it happened, but he knew that his hatred for the alien beast would never go away.

In addition to the mutant insects, he had to contend with his adversary! Shi Qingyang was now an unremarkable orphan in a third-tier city, while his rival was the proud son of heaven praised by all in Central City. This chasm was somewhat wide.

He had no idea how he had unexpectedly possessed a very potent and relatively stable radiation energy in his previous life. If that wasn't the case, he might have only been a fourth or even fifth level Radiant-Warrior. Radiant-Warriors were respected in Spark City, but they couldn't transcend the grade divide.

On the other hand, his life here might have been peaceful, even without this extra power. The fourth and fifth level rad-power wouldn't have caused his body to suffer so much...

Shi Qingyang recalled involuntarily the month-long struggle that had left him dazed and half-conscious. In the end, a significant change had occurred, and he felt his powers growing greater. He must return there!

Shi Qingyang couldn't help but grin wryly after writing down what he wanted to do and everything that had happened in his previous life. Whether it's revenge, traveling beyond the city to destroy mutant insects, or investigating the activities of beasts, none of these tasks can be done by a young man who can't even strike with his rad- power. Right now, he only had about 20,000 credits.

Twenty thousand credits might seem a huge sum, but it was only the expenses for three months in the underground for a normal family of three. Shi Qingyang recalled that when his parents were alive, his father would sometimes go out the city to look for something valuable. His family spent money on good food to improve their lives. A meal could cost several hundred credits...

Spark Academy's 20,000 credits tuition fee was actually symbolic. He was probably the only one troubled by it. If someone else in his situation wished to become a Rad-Warrior at his age, they would almost certainly accept a scholarship from others and then sign a years-long contract to pay it back.

Shi Qingyang didn't have enough money right now, nor did he have the strength.

After being injected with rad- medicine, 80 percent of people will have rad- power. However, except for being more immune to the radiation environment in the wilderness, they were no different from average humans. The true value of rad-power was becoming rad-warrior and being able to fight.

Rad-Warrior can be judged based on two factors: the amount of Rad power the body possesses and the attacks power they can perform. They are divided into one to nine levels. As for the higher levels... the human body can't actually store much more rad- power. In truth, as a human reaches the ninth level, it will be difficult to get higher. The volume of rad-power in the body will be so strong that if one isn't careful, the rad-power could backfire on you.
