Sequence: The God Eater

Chapter 3: Opportunity to Become Stronger - Feast of Gluttony (1/2)

The edge of the safety zone is a very backward area.

Lagging behind in every aspect, not just in the streets and the crowds that gather.

For example, the same is true for education, which the coalition government attaches most importance to.

[Ju'an School] The content of the one-day course in the third year of high school is all boring about the glorious history of ancient humans and outdated scientific theories.

Nowadays, gods rule the world, but the classroom here is still talking about "separation of powers", "social revolution" and other meaningless contents.

Even the functional geometry of mathematics, the force field analysis of physics, and the molecular structure of chemistry are pale and powerless.

The old saying "If you learn mathematics, physics and chemistry well, you will not be afraid of traveling all over the world", it simply doesn't work now.

This knowledge, before the end of the world comes, is a stepping stone for academic work.

But today, when the end of the world is approaching, it has completely lost its meaning.

If you want to stand up, there is only one way out.

Awakening sequence ability.

Only with the ability to sequence can everything be changed.

As for the courses related to sequence abilities, this backward school on the edge of the safety zone does not cover them at all.

On the edge of the poor safe zone, there is almost no trace of sequence ability users. The teachers are all ordinary people and have no chance to receive relevant education. How can they teach students?

Although Qin Siyang did not know about it, he believed that the safe zone had been established for ten years and that the awakening of sequence ability users had been five years old. The coalition government would definitely have courses on sequence users, but it had not spread to [Ju'an School] yet.

The lack of knowledge in the current world system makes Qin Siyang unable to see any future here.

Courses related to sequence ability users are not only provided for awakened sequence ability users, but can also be provided for ordinary people.

Because the birth of sequence ability users will definitely spawn many industries and create many jobs at the same time.

After ordinary people study, the jobs they can engage in after graduation are also much wider.

[Ju'an School]'s platform and resources are at the bottom of the safety zone, and the path students can take is extremely narrow.

Either take the college entrance examination and compete for those few pitiful places, or smoke from the ancestral graves, awaken the sequence ability, and become a sequence ability user.

But for the past five years, the ancestral graves of the students of [Ju'an School] have been very peaceful.

The only hope for the students sitting in the classroom is to rely on their excellent college entrance examination scores to enter a school specially set up by the coalition government for ordinary people, and then work as a clerical or research staff in the coalition government after graduation.

But judging from past school results, even if you are in the top ten of your grade, it is difficult to get into this kind of school. Not to mention Qin Siyang, who is only in the top 100 in his grade.

Being a worker in his previous life taught Qin Siyang a lesson: Don't make unnecessary efforts, rest when you need to, and don't make things difficult for yourself.

Qin Siyang only waited for lunch and dinner time, and went to the cafeteria to get a few more meals for the weekend.

He did not write any homework and was reprimanded by teachers in various subjects.

Also reprimanded were Li Jingwen and her best friends.

Li Jingwen's best friend always copies Li Jingwen's homework. Qin Siyang did all Li Jingwen's homework.

Qin Siyang stopped the dog licking service, directly disrupting the entire industry chain.

Throughout the whole day, Li Jingwen cast sad glances at Qin Siyang from time to time, but Qin Siyang turned a blind eye.

And several of her close friends with Li Jingwen are also giving her advice.

Qin Siyang is Li Jingwen's licking dog, so they can also get some light from him.

For example, Qin Siyang would not refuse if he asked Qin Siyang to help him buy things, prepare meals, etc.

Now that Qin Siyang stopped licking, their interests have also been harmed.

"Jingwen, don't worry, Qin Siyang probably encountered something suddenly that put him in a bad mood."

"Yes. You see he has been in a daze, maybe he was stimulated by something."

Li Jingwen was a little worried: "What should I do? Will I have to do my homework by myself in the future?

Today I was discussing homework answers with Zhou Yang. I said I was sick and didn't have time to do my homework, but he said he couldn't tell that I was sick.

If this continues, Zhou Yang will definitely discover my problem. "

"Zhou Yang's uncle awakened his sequence ability a few days ago, and his family will definitely benefit from it. If I can be with Zhou Yang, I can also help you a lot!"

Li Jingwen's best friend exclaimed: "Zhou Yang's uncle has awakened the sequence ability?! I heard that his uncle is the director of our education department, but I didn't expect..."

The exclamation from her best friend made Li Jingwen feel a little satisfied. She was the first to know about Uncle Zhou Yang's awakening sequence. This convinced her that her relationship with Zhou Yang was already very close.

However, the changes brought by Qin Siyang now made her a little upset.

"Don't talk about things so far away, let's talk about what's at hand. Qin Siyang is good at studying. If Qin Siyang doesn't help me with my homework, you won't be able to copy it."

After Li Jingwen said this, her best friends became more active in making suggestions. Li Jingwen later climbed up the high branches, and they thought they could get some light along the way.

"Jingwen, in this way, when school is over, you stop him and tell him..."

When school was over, Qin Siyang left all the books on the desk.

Because his schoolbag is full of food.

Today he was particularly shameless in the cafeteria and took a lot of extra food. The cafeteria lady didn't scold him and gave him whatever he wanted.

Now, not to mention two meals a day on weekends, there are also three meals a day plus midnight snacks.

He had made plans. These days, he carried a backpack full of food and slept directly near the exit of the safe zone.

As soon as a sequence ability user came back from hunting gods, he would go forward to try his luck.

If he was lucky, he would become stronger, and then slowly develop, and find a chance to leave this hellhole on the edge of the safe zone!

Just as he was going home happily, Li Jingwen suddenly appeared and blocked his way.

Qin Siyang frowned and looked at her, his face full of confusion.

Li Jingwen showed a lovely expression: "Qin Siyang, I reflected on myself again today and asked my heart. In fact, I have you in my heart. It's just that I am still young now..."

"Get lost."

Qin Siyang didn't wait for Li Jingwen to finish speaking, and he said coldly, and walked around her with disdain, as if he was walking around a pile of dog shit.

Only Li Jingwen was left, messy in the wind.

She thought that her bowing could change Qin Siyang's mind. Unexpectedly, this is the result!

Qin Siyang, has he really changed? After that, who would she ask to help her with her homework, and who would she ask to ask for breakfast to please Zhou Yang?

She had a lot of sweet talk, but no one was listening to her.

Qin Siyang returned home, took a cold shower, and went to bed.

He had originally wanted to wait at the exit of the safe zone tonight, but he didn't get enough rest last night and was a little tired, so he changed his mind.

After resting at home tonight, he would go out early tomorrow morning.

Qin Siyang glanced at the black giant insect crawling on the window, and closed the curtains calmly. I'm used to it.

Go to sleep!

...

In the early morning, the alarm clock woke Qin Siyang up.

Saturday arrived.

He opened the curtains. Although it was still dark outside the window, it was indeed seven o'clock in the morning.

Qin Siyang hurriedly ate breakfast and prepared to leave.

He looked at the calendar

[Blue Star Chronicle January 2, 2010]

[Western calendar, Saturday. 】

[Xia calendar, Jichou year, November 18th, suitable for burial]

"Suitable for burial? It seems that today's Xia calendar has nothing to do with me."

Because there is no sun, the temperature outside the safe zone continues to drop, and it is unusually cold.

Qin Siyang can't afford expensive antifreeze clothes, so he has to wear a few more thick clothes, wrapped like a bear, and went out with a backpack full of food.

There are many exits in the safe zone, and the nearest one is only ten minutes away from Qin Siyang's home.

However, the exit of this safe zone is not large, and there are not many wandering gods outside the exit, so usually a team of sequence ability users will not set out from here for a few days.

Fewer teams means fewer opportunities for oneself.

Qin Siyang decided to go to the largest safe zone exit near his residence-No. 114514 safe zone exit.

In the safe zone, only the larger safe zone exits will be numbered, which is convenient for sequence ability users to communicate and locate team hunting tasks.

The smaller the number of the safe zone exit, the more gods wandering outside this exit, and the more powerful the gods are.

Danger and opportunity coexist. More gods mean more opportunities to kill gods.

So there are more teams of sequence ability users gathered at the exits of those safe zones.

The exits of the safe zone No. 114514 seem to have a relatively low sequence number. The sequence number of this exit is more than 100,000, and it is obviously not taken seriously in the safe zone where Qin Siyang is located.

But Qin Siyang believes that no matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat, and there will still be some teams of sequence ability users gathered here.

This knowledge has not been taught in school or textbooks. Qin Siyang saw it from the popular science post in the [God Killing Camp] forum during the half hour he was online yesterday.

Thinking that what he learned in half an hour of online time was more useful than what he learned in school for many years, he complained in his heart: "School is really useless, it's better to go online."

"Alas, but the Internet is too expensive, and there is no meal.

School is free, and two meals are provided. It would be great if the advantages of school and Internet cafe could be combined."

Qin Siyang thought for a moment and chuckled again: "I have to thank the policy of the coalition government for being able to fill my stomach, so what qualifications do I have to dislike school?"

Exit 114514, Qin Siyang needs more than two hours to reach, but he is full of energy.

He is full of expectations for his future. That safe zone exit hides his hope of getting rid of his current fate.

The journey of more than two hours is somewhat monotonous.

Traveling along the road, all you see are some dilapidated houses, most of which have collapsed. The road is also covered with gravel and dust because no one takes care of it.

In order to pass through these collapsed buildings and stones, he often needs to climb up and down, and he is exhausted.

Although the journey was long, Qin Siyang didn't see many living people in two hours. Occasionally, there were one or two passers-by who looked hurried, but they were not residents here.

Four years ago, for some unknown reason, several pieces of the air-raid glass here suddenly burst. The air-raid glass is a barrier that isolates gods from entering the safe zone. Once the glass bursts, the residents here lose their only support.

Many gods took the opportunity to pour in and attacked the safe zone.

In order to prevent the situation from escalating, the United Government urgently dispatched a sequence ability force to eliminate and drive away all the invading gods, and then asked the engineering team to quickly repair the air-raid glass here.

Fortunately, the United Government arranged very timely, and no large gods entered the safe zone, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

But the accident still caused a lot of losses. The original residents either died in the attack or moved away.

The coalition government repaired the security zone fortifications here, but did not rebuild the streets and houses here.

Qin Siyang believes that it is probably because once an unsafe incident occurs, people will no longer trust the safety here.

Even if the infrastructure is built, no one will be willing to move in.

The coalition government simply didn't waste its efforts.

The lack of people made Qin Siyang feel relieved. At least he didn't have to worry about someone stealing the food in his schoolbag.

Most people who graduated from [Ju'an School] couldn't find a job to make a living, which also made the public security here relatively poor.

For Qin Siyang, no one was much more reassuring than someone.

Finally, Qin Siyang saw a blue sign two people tall, with the words "Safe Zone Exit No. 114514" painted in white.

"Finally arrived"

Walking to exit 114514, he wanted to go over and take a look, but found that for some reason, there were many people surrounding this place.

In order to understand the situation inside, he had to find a high earth slope and observe carefully.

At first glance, he saw the protective gate of the exit.

This was his first time to come to the exit of the safety zone with a sequence number, and it was also the first time he saw the gate of the exit of the safety zone with a sequence number.

The gate was seven or eight meters wide and three or four meters high. It seemed to be made of a special alloy and looked very heavy.

There were many layers of protective glass on the protective gate, so many that he couldn't even see through the glass outside the protective zone.

In front of the protective gate, there were more than a dozen people wearing transparent helmets and orange and white striped antifreeze suits.

Antifreeze suits, one piece is worth more than two silver coins, which is an astronomical figure in Qin Siyang's world. Only sequence ability users can afford it.

Since the establishment of the coalition government, the currency is no longer based on the country, but has been changed to copper coins, silver coins and gold coins issued uniformly by the coalition government.

Although they are copper coins, silver coins and gold coins, in order to support the large-scale use of safe zones around the world, these currencies are not pure precious metals, but various alloys to be precise.

Among them, copper coins are the least valuable, because copper coins are not only cheap to make, but also mixed with many impurity metals.

Generally speaking, the price of 10,000 copper coins is the same as the price of a silver coin. And the price of 1,000 silver coins is the same as that of a gold coin.

However, due to the low production cost of copper coins and the different proportions of other metals mixed into coins in different places, it may take 12,000 copper coins to exchange for one silver coin.

For Qin Siyang now, silver coins are like tens of millions of assets in his previous life, which are out of reach.

It seems that they are the sequence ability users gathered at this exit.

There are only a few people wearing antifreeze suits. In addition to these dozen people, there are thousands of ordinary people like Qin Siyang, wrapped tightly and surrounded here.

Qin Siyang was a little puzzled, what exactly do these people do.

Isn't it only sequence ability users who gather at the exit?

At this time, two sequence ability users wearing antifreeze suits took off their helmets, as if they had completed the hunting mission and were ready to go back.

Hundreds of ordinary people around them surrounded them at once.

"Two commanders, do you want to take a rest? There is a good foot bath!"

"Two commanders, I have excellent dishes here!"

"I have a high-end apartment for the two commanders to live in for free! As long as the two commanders are willing to take a few photos with me!"

"Commander, my daughter is not married yet. When she saw your heroic appearance, she decided to marry you!"

"Commander, do you want a wife? If you have a wife, I will be your mistress, and I don't need a name!"

The crowd rushed forward frantically, but tacitly kept a distance of more than one meter from the two sequence ability users.

The two sequence ability users seemed to be accustomed to this scene, and did not stay for long. In the end, they just picked a high-end restaurant and a comfortable hotel and left.

The two shop owners he picked had red glows of excitement on their faces.

Qin Siyang looked at the reactions of the crowd and was dumbfounded.

He knew that sequencers were popular in this world, but he didn't expect it to be like this.

Undoubtedly, these were ordinary people on the edge of the safe zone. They hoped to get close to a sequencer, get rid of their miserable fate, and live in a more comfortable place.

Like Qin Siyang, they also tried hard to achieve class leap. Unfortunately, none of them had the luck of Qin Siyang, and they might never get out of the edge of the safe zone in their lifetime.

Thinking of this, Qin Siyang felt grateful for fate and once again strengthened his mind.

"God has given me the [God Eater] sequence, I must become stronger!"

He wanted to pass through the crowd and get close to the remaining dozen sequencers, but was immediately pushed away.

"Smelly boy, go to the back to line up! Why are you squeezing forward!"

Qin Siyang said: "I'm not here to find sequencers, I won't compete with you for business."

He just wanted to see if there were any abandoned remains of gods in front, and he was not interested in sequencers.

But his idea, others would not believe it.

When they heard Qin Siyang's words, everyone around laughed.

"Who are you trying to fool? Everyone who wants to squeeze forward says the same thing."

Qin Siyang had no choice but to wait at the outermost edge.

The protective door at the exit of the safe zone opened again and again, and sequence ability users kept coming in and out, and the number of ordinary people surrounding it became fewer and fewer.

At night, Qin Siyang finally occupied a front position.

However, unlike others, whenever sequence ability users came back from outside the safe zone, he was not concerned about these sequence ability users, but the whereabouts of the god debris in their hands.

Unfortunately, these debris were taken away by the prosecutor of the United Government next to him, and he didn't pick up any of them.

Just when Qin Siyang thought that he had no harvest today, another team of people came back from outside the safe zone.

This sequence ability user checked his harvest and finally threw an ear with many worms growing on it on the ground beside him.

"I took the wrong thing. This thing is useless. It wasted a space in my backpack." He complained.

Qin Siyang looked at the ear with worms, his eyes lit up, swallowed his saliva, and prepared to put it away when no one was paying attention.

However, a cleaner swept the ear into the dustpan and turned away.

Qin Siyang was going crazy! The piece of god's remains that he had waited so long for was taken away!

He gave up his position in the front row of the spectators and immediately followed the cleaner out of the safe zone exit, hoping to find a chance to grab the god's ear.

The cleaner didn't realize that someone would be so interested in the garbage in the dustpan.

He walked to the corner of the street and directly dumped the ear into the dirty trash can, and then left.

Qin Siyang watched the cleaner leave in the dark.

"Great!" Qin Siyang knew his chance had come!

After the cleaner left, Qin Siyang came forward and tried to take the ear out of the trash can.

He opened the lid of the trash can, and a strong smell of blood came to his nose.

However, when he saw the scene in the trash can, he was stunned.

There were actually many remains of gods in it! !

Qin Siyang's eyes widened, and his heart was thumping.

"Is this... a gluttonous feast?!!"
