Chapter 7: Disaster Arrives

A few days later.

If someone was outside at this moment, he would definitely be able to appreciate the rare scenery. There were many scarlet flames in the sky falling towards different locations on Earth.

The beautiful Earth was about to disappear. After the baptism of the asteroid, people would only see ruins in the future.

Boom!

There were loud noises.

A terrifying tremor suddenly began.

The earth shook.

There were also various explosions and the sound of houses collapsing..

The entire Earth seemed to be shaking as the asteroid fragments fell.

Countless people fainted at this moment.

Lorne, who was sitting in his technology city, also felt the tremors.

He could also feel a wave of air hitting him from all directions.

In an instant, Lorne also fainted.

Before losing consciousness, Lorne only thought of one thing. Wasn’t this secret chamber supposed to prevent tremors?

An hour passed. Lorne suddenly moved his fingers and slowly opened his eyes.

He struggled to sit up on the ground and held his head. Now that he was awake, he wanted to complain about his system.

“System, what’s going on? I want to file a complaint. Didn’t you say that it can prevent tremors? Why am I still knocked out?” Lorne questioned the system angrily.

“The shock prevention System mentioned before is based on the average physical fitness of an adult carbon-based creature on Earth. The host’s physical fitness is lower than the average man on Earth. That’s why he fainted.”

“If you use the numbers commonly used on Earth, a normal male adult would have a physical fitness of 5 points, while the host only has 3 points. I suggest that the host should do hand exercise less and train more,” the system said in Lorne’s mind.

Lorne’s face turned red.

Did he want to do hand exercise?

In the past, he was just a poor person. How could he have the money to find a girlfriend? But now that he obtained this system, he should be able to reach the peak of his life.

“System, check the current situation of my residence.” Lorne was too embarrassed to argue. He quickly shifted his attention to the current situation of his residence.

[Congratulations to the host for successfully passing the impact of the asteroid.]

[Achievement: Live through Earth’s first crisis.]

[Received system reward: All attributes+3]

[The Most Powerful Technology City System is officially activated. The system will help the host establish the most powerful technology city.]

[The System Shop is open. Host can use materials, metals, and various resources and technology points to exchange for various items in the System Shop.]

[Host, the reward for surviving the asteroid disaster is 90 points.]

[Remaining points: 110 points]

[Through the upgrade of the system, the technology city is in good condition. It is not damaged by the impact of the asteroid. The only accident is that the host fainted due to the shock.]

Lorne was quite happy to hear that.

But when he heard the last sentence, Lorne’s face instantly darkened. Wasn’t he just a little unconscious?

Wasn’t it because his body was just a little weak?

Did it have to emphasize it so many times?

“System, didn’t you reward all attributes with three points because I survived the asteroid disaster? Add them all now.”

When Lorne heard the system’s mockery, he remembered that the reward for surviving the asteroid disaster seemed to be to improve his physical fitness, so he immediately told the system.

As soon as Lorne finished speaking, he felt a wave of energy coming from his body, slowly nourishing his body.

After a minute, the energy slowly faded away. Lorne felt that his body had become exceptionally healthy. He felt that he could now fight ten of his previous selves.

“System, show me my character panel.”

[Most Powerful Technology City System]

[Host: Lorne]

Strength: 6

Speed: 6

Spirit: 6

Points: 127

Looking at his stats on the interface, Lorne was very satisfied.

After improving his physical fitness, Lorne slowly observed his surroundings. It was pitch black.

At this moment, he really needed something to light up the way. Hence, he took out a ball pen from his pocket and looked at it.

Soon, the information that Lorne wanted to see appeared before him.

“Cheap ball pen.”

“Upgrade direction 1: Upgrade the material of the ball pen and increase its lighting feature. It can dispel all darkness within five meters (3 points).”

“Upgrade direction 2: Upgrade the ball pen material, increase the hardness of the ball pen and turn it into a powerful wilderness survival tool (5 points).”

Lorne reached out and tapped on the upgrade direction 1. Instantly, Lorne realized that the points on his interface had decreased by 3 points to 124 points. The ball pen also twisted and turned into a brand new ball pen.

A beam of light shot out from the ball pen, instantly illuminating the area around Lorne.

Lorne had always kept this ball pen with him. He could not help but sigh at his foresight.

Relying on the light from the pen, he successfully found the generator in the residence and began running it. About five minutes later, the residence regained its light.

Lorne checked the various equipment in the residence and found that they were intact like the system said.

He remembered that the system said that he could upgrade his residence with materials and points.

Thus, Lorne turned his attention to the door of the residence. This was the main guarantee of his future safety.

Soon, a message appeared on the door.

[Technology City Iron Door]

Effect: It can prevent most disasters from affecting the residence. It should be enough for the host for now.

Upgrade direction 1: Increase the thickness of the iron gate. Requires 10 points. (If the host provides 5 units of iron, then only 5 technology points.)

Upgrade Direction 2: Transform the gate’s material from iron to alloy. Requires 30 points. (Requires the host to provide another type of metal other than iron. The amount of metal provided by the host will gradually decrease the number of technology points required.)

Looking at the words that appeared in front of him, Lorne understood the usage of the system after upgrading.

Apart from relying on technology points to upgrade items, they could also be upgraded by providing the system with materials, reducing the technology points needed for upgrading.

This meant that Lorne would need to search for metal materials outside in the future.

But that was good. Lorne didn’t want to stay in the shelter all day. Loneliness was scary.

Lorne was not about to go out now, though. After all, the asteroid had just landed.

There must be flames everywhere outside. And there should be radiation as well.
