Volume 0: Prelude to Recovery

Chapter 1 The Black Dragon Appears

In 2020, it is a sunny day in Nanda.

A fierce solo one-on-one game is taking place on the basketball court.

While Lin Xingtao was dribbling the ball, he squeezed out his free time and waved gracefully to the girls watching the game.

Sweat soaked through his undershirt, leaving dark marks on his back.

Opposite him, the boy whose clothes were also soaked with sweat was panting and staring at him without blinking.

They are two of the three phantoms in the Nanjing University basketball world, but this time it is very rare for them to get together to play together.

All the onlookers are guessing who is stronger.

Now it seems that Lin Xingtao is stronger, and he also believes that he will maintain this advantage to the end.

Opposite him is Wang Xichen, the league secretary of Class 1 Chinese International, who has a more resounding title than the three phantom gods in the basketball world - Wang Baoyu, born with minerals.

Lin Xingtao smashed the basketball on the ground with his long fingers, leaving a wet mark. In his sight, apart from that trace, was Wang Xichen's shiny AJ co-branded basketball shoes. It's hard to say how expensive they are, but they are not cheap.

"Brother," Lin Xingtao said.

Brother Wang Xichen didn't say anything, he just lowered his center of gravity to better defend.

Lin Xingtao does not hate the rich, but he has to have a reason for soloing with others. His reason is that people wearing AJs are not as good at playing basketball as wearing ordinary Nikes.

Wang Xichen Ning has the guts!

He shouted a slogan casually in his mind, as if he was the representative of all the boys who couldn't afford to wear AJ co-branded clothes, and then he smiled brightly at Wang Xichen.

Then he turned around at an absolutely rapid speed.

Wang Xichen had no time to react, and Lin Xingtao's vigorous figure flashed before his eyes.

As fast as thunder, there is wind under your feet.

He is talking about Lin Xingtao.

Lin Xingtao has never lost one-on-one, or in other words, as long as he does something with his heart, he will always come first.

"My Mr. Lin is so strong!" Lin Xingtao's fans outside the field cheered loudly.

The sound of refueling stirred up youthful sweat flying freely in the air.

At this time, the sun was scorching in the sky, and the wind blowing from the sky was as soft as goose down.

The smell of long-stemmed and lying weeds being scorched by the sun was also blown in.

Wang Xichen reacted, and he was not slow at all. He quickly stepped forward to defend Lin Xingtao closely.

Lin Xingtao saw that he wanted to use a move to counterattack, but Lin Xingtao moved in an amazing position and passed Wang Xichen with a fake move.

During the fast-paced confrontation, he saw the wind blowing up Wang Xichen's hair and sweat dripping on his thick eyebrows.

Lin Xingtao and Wang Xichen looked at each other, then strode towards the basket.

It's time to end, he thought, and he wouldn't give Wang Xichen a chance to slap him in the face.

Wang Xichen chased Lin Xingtao to the basket.

Lin Xingtao jumped up first.

The breeze this time brushed the sweat on his eyelashes.

But he was so excited that he couldn't blink.

Suddenly he was in a trance.

The basket gradually faded away from his sight, and he saw himself in Wang Xichen's eyes.

In his eyes, he was slowly jumping up, at a very, very slow speed.

Looking down, Wang Xichen's clothes were rolled up by the wind, and the Supreme logo with white letters on a red background was clearly visible at the corner.

There was a drawn-out scream in his ears.

Lin Xingtao felt a little strangely that the whole world seemed to have slowed down.

Finally, sweat dripped into his eyes, and he saw the water droplets smearing in his eyes.

The world also fainted with ripples.

The girls' soft laughter and high-pitched screams became loud and strange. He listened carefully, and heard the sound getting closer and closer, and the echoes——

Ringing in my ears!

Boom!

A deafening thunder.

Lin Xingtao's fingers touched the frame of the basketball, and a slight electric current spread from his fingertips to his whole body.

The basketball passed through the basket and vibrated in the air.

Also trembling unconsciously was Lin Xingtao himself.

The sky became overcast.

The basketball fell to the ground before anyone else, but Lin Xingtao couldn't hear the sound of the basketball landing. He couldn't even hear his own breathing or heartbeat.

All he could hear was the vibrating sound in his chest.

The blood is stirring, and from every pore, a heart palpitating sensation that makes your fingers tremble.

The original sunlight divided his body into two distinct lines.

As he fell, the sunlight gradually streaked across his body, immersing him into the shadow side.

The sky finally became completely overcast.

And Lin Xingtao fell into darkness.

Snap, he fell to the ground, he stood up, he raised his head——

Everything fell into silence.

It took a long time, maybe a long time.

"Lin Xingtao cowhide——" Fang Chao, the fanboy, shouted, rushed over and hugged Lin Xingtao's neck, causing him to stagger.

Lin Xingtao suddenly recovered from the strange feeling of the world slowing down.

He looked across. Wang Xichen kept jumping up, but for some reason he never jumped up. Maybe he knew that even if he jumped up, he couldn't stop Lin Xingtao, so he chose to give up.

Under Lin Xingtao's gaze, he slowly retracted his hand and said lightly: "Congratulations."

"I have something urgent, I'm leaving first," he said.

Lin Xingtao nodded. Looking at Wang Xichen's hurried figure, he couldn't help but sigh: "A man who is handsome, tall, rich, and can also play basketball."

"Wow! I, a man, can't help but call you husband!" Fang Chao immediately made a dog-licking sound, "Husband, is it you, husband?"

"I'm not your husband." Lin Xingtao quickly denied.

Remove the word "rich", this is Lin Xingtao.

Lin Xingtao is a simple proletarian who has never experienced the hardships of the bourgeoisie.

One of the girls watching handed Lin Xingtao water, and Lin Xingtao drank a few sips and comforted himself: money is nothing, handsomeness is the first priority.

Fang Chao reminded the girl who brought him water who was the campus belle, but Lin Xingtao was not in the mood to chat with the campus belle at this time. He just felt very strange about the change in the weather.

"Did the weather forecast say it was going to rain? The thunder just now was really loud."

"It looks like it's going to rain. Should we go back to the dormitory, or... go to the library to find our academic bully?"

"Of course we're going to the library." Lin Xingtao smiled.

"Then treat him to dinner, and then borrow his reading notes?" Fang Chao asked with a smile.

"You guessed it right, prophet."

Lin Xingtao picked up his schoolbag and prepared to leave, and thanked the girl who handed him the drink.

The sudden cloudy weather did not make the energetic college students lament that they could not play basketball, but made everyone more active.

In fact, everyone likes the weather with a hint of coolness.

Usually, Lin Xingtao does not care whether it rains or not, but a strange feeling in his heart made him speed up.

"Wait for me!" Fang Chao shouted.

"By the way, Da Tao, did you say you heard thunder? I don't think I heard it?"

"But when you dunked, the sky suddenly became dark, wow, so cool. It's like turning off the switch between heaven and earth, haha."

Lin Xingtao stopped suddenly.

Looking up at the sky.

In response to Fang Chao's laughter, there were sudden exclamations and gasps.

The sound of "Fuck" continued, and everyone stared at the sky, as if petrified.

Lin Xingtao clenched the shoulder straps of his schoolbag, and a thunderbolt seemed to flash through his mind.

At that moment, it was the astonishment, excitement, and perhaps a trace of fear that common sense was overwhelmed by facts.

Because something that could never appear appeared in the sky-

A dragon!

It was a dragon!

Rolling in the dark night sky! Shuttle through the heavy black clouds!

The edge of the dragon scales shone with golden light, like the rising sun.

Lin Xingtao's eyes were sore from the sting, but he didn't want to cover them with his hands.

Everyone around him didn't want to miss this strange scene like him.

No one took a mobile phone, and no one made any extra movements. In the face of a huge impact, the first reaction of human beings is always to use their own eyes to see and observe, and people only believe what they see with their own eyes. ∮Thinking Rabbit∮Network∮Document∮Sharing∮and∮Online∮Reading∮

But can human eyes deceive people? Everyone was in great shock.

In 2020, at the end of the second half of the college students' school year, a black dragon with golden edges and lightning appeared above Nanjing City.

"The dragon walks on the crimson air, and the sky speaks.

Chaos is suspected to be judged, and the primeval world seems to be divided."

Although he is not a person who likes to recite poems or is not very good at reciting poems, Lin Xingtao inexplicably remembered this poem.

He felt that something was about to begin in this world.

Chapter 2 Between Life and Death

A black dragon appeared above his head.

It is indeed a dragon - unless there are other animals with horns like deer, heads like camels, eyes like rabbits, necks like snakes, bellies like clams, scales like fish, claws like eagles, paws like tigers, and ears like cows.

Everyone in Nanjing can see this dragon, and only people in Nanjing can see it.

At the moment when the black dragon appeared, countless people in Nanjing looked up at the sky.

According to statistics, the real-time search rate of Nanjing in major search engines at that time dropped to a terrible level because everyone stopped playing with their mobile phones.

What followed was a big explosion.

#泳京黑龙# was instantly pushed to the top of the hot search.

Not long after, Weibo was paralyzed, and countless people's enthusiasm was vented on the Internet, setting off a feast for netizens.

Mobile phones could not take pictures, but millions of people in Nanjing saw the dragon together, which was a fact that people from other places could not deny.

As they observed, they found that the dragon's body was broken.

The broken end was located above Zhongshan Mountain, and there was purple and black air at the broken end, which was gloomy and terrifying.

So, the materialistic conjecture that there really existed such creatures as dragons in the world turned into a fantasy reality that there were dragons that could be broken into two and still move.

The official issued a notice as soon as possible, mainly notifying personnel at all levels to manage local order, appease the masses, and a paper.

The title of the paper is "The Periodic Relationship between Celestial Movement and World Changes".

According to the paper, this incident was caused by a special comet passing through the earth.

Similar situations also occurred in ancient times, as evidenced by similar myths and legends in various countries around the world and the endless strange stories in ancient times.

The comet was named the Spirit King Comet, and the official event was also defined as "the resurrection of spiritual energy and the manifestation of dragon veins".

Spiritual energy resurrection! Dragon veins!

These two words immediately caused heated discussions.

"It seems that the authorities have been prepared for a long time." Lin Xingtao said, swiping his card and entering the library.

The voice of the principal came from the campus radio: "Please don't panic, students, return to normal order, it's just a dragon, just take a look..."

That's right.

This dragon has not caused other abnormal phenomena for the time being, and the order of modern society is not so easy to collapse. Life must continue as usual.

——For example, in some classrooms, the teacher smiled and held up the roll call list.

It's normal for some people to skip class. After all, such a big thing happened, and there were only a few people left in the usually overcrowded library.

Lin Xingtao walked into the science lending room on the fourth floor. The person he was looking for was buried in books and ignored him.

Lin Xingtao said nothing and spun the basketball twice on his fingertips.

Quietly, the movements are graceful and smooth.

Xu Youxin looked up from his study materials and said, "You disturbed me."

"You caught my eye."

"Are you Duan Mulei from Alliston?" Lin Xingtao raised his chin, "Let's go, I'll treat you to a meal."

Xu Youxin pushed up his glasses and said in a harsh tone: "You don't have to treat me to dinner, I will lend you my notes."
