The organization I founded has been exposed by the reborn!

Outside the Seventh Ring Road of Yanjing.

Museum corner.

A taxi was parked on the side of the road.

Shen Lesheng pushed open the car door and got out, gazing at the vast museum complex in the distance.

According to the memories flooding my mind, the headquarters of Dawn is located inside this museum.

Shen Lesheng lowered the brim of his hat and walked quickly to the wall outside the museum.

Place both hands on the ground.

A slight thought.

"open."

With whispers, a magical scene unfolded.

The once hard asphalt road and the underlying soil seemed to come alive, automatically rolling and retreating to both sides like a tide, forcibly cracking open a dark downward passage under Shen Lesheng's feet.

Shen Lesheng disappeared directly into the ground.

The soil quietly closed in behind, erasing all traces.

Traveling underground is a wonderful experience.

The rocks and sand buried deep underground were clearly visible to Shen Lesheng.

He didn't even need to dig; with just his mind, the thick soil in front of him would automatically push aside and make way for a path.

After he passes by, the soil behind him immediately closes up, erasing all traces.

After a while.

In the center of the museum, in front of that huge ancient tree.

The smooth soil receded in all directions like blooming flower buds.

Shen Lesheng's figure rose from the earth and quietly appeared on the ground.

Looking up at the ancient tree that blocked out the sky, Shen Lesheng felt a slight tremor in his heart.

The thick, gnarled branches pierce the open-air dome, and the lush shade of the trees envelops the entire main building.

The financial resources required to transplant and nurture such a colossal plant in Yanjing are truly unimaginable.

Shen Lesheng withdrew his gaze and looked at the giant black stone monument directly in front of the ancient tree.

It was a stone tablet several meters high, with a deep, dark black color all over, as if it had risen from a dimensional rift.

At the very center of the stone tablet, two large characters are engraved in ancient script that shimmers with a mysterious glow: "Dawn".

To the left of the stone tablet, a black cat statue sits quietly.

The statue is made of neither gold nor stone, and its surface is covered with viscous, liquid shadows that seem to surge like a living thing.

The moment he took a step forward, Shen Lesheng felt a chill run down his spine.

The eyes of the black cat statue were fixed on him as if they were real.

This was an unimaginable pressure.

Under this oppressive force, the energy that was originally surging within Shen Lesheng's body actually stagnated for a brief period of time, and he even found it a little difficult to breathe.

The oppressive feeling gradually disappeared only after he withdrew his gaze.

"Let's go to headquarters first."

Shen Lesheng took a deep breath to calm the surging blood in his chest, then stretched out his palm and gently pressed it onto the surface of the dark stone tablet.

"Buzz—"

A dull, resonant sound suddenly arose in the space, and the ancient runes on the surface of the stone tablet resonated violently.

Immediately afterwards, a void vortex emitting a faint, eerie light tore open in front of the stone tablet, transforming into a thin, shimmering curtain of light.

Shen Lesheng did not rush in rashly.

He raised his right hand and tentatively reached towards the light barrier.

A wonderful tactile sensation spread from my fingertips.

The arm passed through the light barrier without any obstruction, and the cool air and strange magnetic field coming from the other end of the palm were completely different from the outside world.

It was as if behind the door lay another unknown dimension.

Shen Lesheng gritted his teeth, no longer hesitated, and stepped into the void vortex.

……

The vision experienced a brief period of weightlessness and dizziness.

When Shen Lesheng opened his eyes again, he found himself in a completely unfamiliar world.

Gray fog lingered beneath the sky, while the earth beneath one's feet exuded a calm and weighty texture.

The air was filled with tiny specks of pale blue dust.

With each breath, a cool and refreshing airflow flowed into his lungs, and his slightly weak mental energy, which had just awakened, recovered at an astonishing speed.

Look into the distance, following the line of sight.

Around the giant stone plaza in front, there stands a group of ancient, solemn and oppressive black stone buildings.

The majestic hall soared into the clouds, its powerful runes appearing and disappearing in the mist.

"This... is the Dawn headquarters?"

Shen Lesheng looked around at this mysterious world that had its own set of laws. His usually rational and calm mind went blank for a moment, and his heart was filled with turmoil.

Before this, he had imagined countless possibilities, thinking that Dawn might be an ancient force hidden underground in the city, or a secret organization that controls some kind of secret stronghold.

But what he saw before him completely overturned his understanding.

Create your own high-dimensional folded space and take control of the order of your own world!

This almost godlike method has long surpassed the limits of human imagination.

"Click, click."

Just then.

The sound of mechanical rollers came from below.

Shen Lesheng looked down and saw a crude robot, shaped like a wastepaper basket and equipped with wheels at the bottom, gliding up in front of him.

"You've come!"

The robot spoke in a man's voice.

This is a robot that Zheng Qiang casually pieced together and reconstructed from scrap metal in his spare time.

Zheng Qiang named it "Zero".

The camera on top of Zero flickered a few times with a faint blue light, and Zheng Qiang's voice came through the mechanical speaker again:

"Please wait here for a moment, I'll be right there."

After speaking, the robot's indicator light went out, and it entered standby mode.

Shen Lesheng stared blankly at the robot in front of him.

He had represented the school in the National College Robotics Competition and had some understanding of mechanical structures.

The robot in front of me, though its appearance is so simple that it looks like a pile of junk, has exposed wiring and transmission structures that far surpass the level of current technology.

It's as if the rules of physics have been redefined at the microscopic level.

This place is eerie in every way.

……

Not long after.

A series of steady, uneven footsteps echoed on the stone path.

Zheng Qiang, accompanied by Feng Gang and Wen Xiaoxiao, strode over through the thin gray fog.

"You're the new member the boss was talking about?"

Zheng Qiang sized up Shen Lesheng in front of him.

"The leader is our leader of Dawn, the great being who bestowed upon us extraordinary power."

Zheng Qiang smiled and extended his right hand, saying, "Let me introduce myself. My name is Zheng Qiang, and my awakened ability is a C-level ability... [Mechanical Brain Domain]."

"My name is Feng Gang, you can just call me Lao Feng from now on! Awakened ability... C-rank [Blazing Yang Qi]!"

The bald, burly man beside him grinned, his thick arms exerting a slight force, the bulging muscles faintly radiating the lingering warmth of masculine energy, exuding a fierce aura.

"And me! My name is Wen Xiaoxiao! I've awakened a C-rank healing ability... [Healing Aura]!"

The girl with pigtails skipped over and waved her little fist with a grin: "I'm the team's medic. If anyone gets hurt, I can heal them all."

Shen Lesheng looked at the three people in front of him, each with distinct features and a different aura, hesitated for a moment, and then took Zheng Qiang's hand.

"Hello, my name is Shen Lesheng."

"My awakened ability is A-level... Sand control."

This statement came out.

The smiles on Zheng Qiang and the other two's faces froze instantly.

"Holy crap?! A-rank ability?!"

Feng Gang touched his bald head, his face full of disbelief: "And it's an extremely rare natural elemental type? Dude, your luck is just too incredible!!"

Wen Xiaoxiao also opened her mouth wide, her big eyes filled with admiration and amazement.

It's important to know that among the current Dawn members, apart from Qin Xinran who is A-level, the other three are all C-level.

The seemingly dull and frail new member in front of us has woken up to find himself at the top of the combat power rankings!

Zheng Qiang recovered the fastest; a flash of shock crossed his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure.

He stepped forward, reached out, and patted Shen Lesheng on the shoulder, his tone cheerful:

Welcome to Dawn.

"No wonder the boss specifically arranged for us to come and meet you in advance. Come on, let us show you around the headquarters."

……

The next half hour became a shocking journey in Shen Lesheng's more than 20 years of life, in which his values ​​were completely reshaped.

Their first stop was the main hall of the Dawn Conference Room, built by Blackstone.

"Don't let your legs go weak when you go in later," Wen Xiaoxiao winked at him, kindly reminding him.

A sense of curiosity arose in Shen Lesheng's heart. He considered himself to be quite knowledgeable and did not think that anything could shock him.

As the two heavy black stone doors were pushed open.

An ancient, desolate, and heavy feeling, like the pressure of a mountain, washes over you.

Shen Lesheng's gaze was instantly drawn to the magnificent war history murals on the black stone walls on both sides.

In the mural.

A blood moon hangs in the sky, the abyss rages, and humanity's ancestors struggle in despair.

At the highest point of the scene, a figure whose face is obscured holds an iron spear, firmly pinning a massive black dragon that blots out the sky to the summit of a towering mountain.

In another mural, purple lightning intertwines into a net, and an ancestor wearing tattered robes stands amidst the raging waves, forcefully suppressing and sealing an indescribable abyssal sea monster.

"These are all true records of the Dawn's predecessors' struggle against the abyss."

Pointing to the mural, Zheng Qiang's tone was filled with deep awe and pride: "The Dawn has been passed down for hundreds of years, silently guarding human civilization in the darkness of history. And our leader... the great being who bestowed upon you extraordinary power, is the fifty-second leader of the Dawn."

Shen Lesheng felt a chill run down his spine upon hearing this.

Before this, he had always thought that the extraordinary power was a recent phenomenon that had suddenly emerged.

Unexpectedly, deep in the shadows of human history, there has always stood such a savior organization, silently protecting humanity.

However, this is just the beginning.

As he followed Zheng Qiang deeper into the main hall.

His steps abruptly halted, his pupils contracting sharply in shock.

On the massive black stone supporting pillars of the main hall.

A massive beast skeleton, emitting a ghostly green glow and topped with spiraling horns, was bound and locked to a thick bronze chain, its body still faintly exuding the aura of an ancient creature.

"This is... a unicorn?!" Shen Lesheng's voice was slightly hoarse.

"Yeah, right." Wen Xiaoxiao nodded. "It was just spoils of war killed by the third leader seven hundred years ago. Nothing to be surprised about. The real surprise is yet to come."

Shen Lesheng looked in the direction Wen Xiaoxiao pointed.

Behind the solemn, dark gold round table in the center of the main hall.

Inside a towering, transparent vessel, there was a mysterious energy liquid that emitted a faint blue glow.

In the center of that liquid, a dragon cub, several meters long, covered in dark red, gnarled scales and with two prominent horns, was suspended in mid-air!

Its slender whiskers even floated gently in the slight ripples of the liquid, as if it had simply fallen into a deep sleep.

"A dragon...a dragon?!"

"This...this is real?!"

Shen Lesheng's scientific mind, which had been rational for more than 20 years, completely crashed at this moment.

Creatures that only exist in myths and legends actually exist!

And it's been so casually made into a specimen and displayed here!

"How could it be fake?"

Feng Gang patted his chest and said, "More than two hundred years ago, this evil dragon attempted to cause a tsunami along the coast, but was captured on the spot by our forty-second leader and turned into a specimen."

Looking at Feng Gang's nonchalant expression, and feeling the perfect structure of the biological specimen in front of him, which showed no signs of artificial forgery on a physical level.

Shen Lesheng took a deep breath.

The last trace of doubt and confusion in the depths of his eyes vanished, replaced by the same awe and fervor as Zheng Qiang and the others.

It is the greatest honor of his life to be able to join such a great organization with unparalleled heritage!

After leaving the conference hall.

Zheng Qiang and the other two then led Shen Lesheng to the [Tianji Xinggui Yi].

Looking at the enormous instrument, composed of countless interlocking bronze gears with a vast miniature nebula suspended in its center, Shen Lesheng was once again awestruck.

Then, they arrived at the portal in the square.

A colossal gate, constructed of towering black stone, stands in the void. Its ancient and weathered stone body is covered with intricate runes that shimmer with a dark golden luster.

"This is a portal; I don't need to explain its function, right?"

Zheng Qiang then pointed to the bronze platform on one side of the giant gate.

On the platform, several black stones with intricate carvings are scattered about.

"That's a teleportation stone. If you encounter mortal danger, crush it, and you'll be instantly teleported back to headquarters."

Zheng Qiang turned to the side and gave an awkward smile: "According to the organization's practice, every new member who joins Dawn is given one as a life-saving trump card. However, we don't have the authority to do so; we'll have to wait for the boss to return and distribute it to you personally."

"clear."

Shen Lesheng nodded emphatically, staring at the black stone on the bronze platform, his eyes filled with undisguised shock.

A teleportation artifact that can ignore spatial blockades and save lives is practically like being given a second life.

……

Afterwards, Zheng Qiang and the other two led Shen Lesheng on a tour of the [Organization Mall], [Task Board], and [Eternal Warehouse].

The mature reward system includes the Taskbar and Points Mall.

The Everlasting Warehouse holds hundreds of thousands of tons of strategic materials piled up like mountains, preserved as if time had stood still.

The impressive organizational foundation shattered Shen Lesheng's narrow-minded perception.

On the eve of a cataclysmic event that threatens to collapse the social order of humanity.

While the secular world was still groping in the dark, Dawn had already completed all its arrangements!

At this moment, looking at this headquarters that governed its own laws, Shen Lesheng felt from the bottom of his heart the power and terror of Dawn.

It was his good fortune to be able to follow that leader who controlled everything!
