I chose the safe house, and the Human Alliance regretted it.

Chapter 154 has arrived.

In the kitchen, Zhou Yao stared wide-eyed, her face filled with disbelief.

"I...I've awakened!"

"Me too!"

"......."

Her several "young wives" were also very excited.

"Haha!" Zhou Yao laughed, hands on her hips. "We're superpowered now, so we don't need to be afraid of that little girl Li An anymore!"

Clearly, Zhou Yao had just gained her superpowers and was getting a little cocky.

"Uncle Zhou, did you call me?"

At the kitchen doorway, Li An peeked in, his gray eyes fixed on Zhou Yao.

Zhou Yao froze, as if someone had grabbed her by the neck.

Looking into Li An's eyes, which seemed to see nothing, her newly formed blind confidence vanished instantly.

"The food... the food will be ready soon, An'an, please wait a little longer." Her voice was trembling.

Li An smiled and left.

Zhou Yao was covered in cold sweat; her back was soaked through.

She then realized that even after awakening, the gap between her and Li An was still unimaginably large.

However, Zhou Yao perked up again when she thought about her special ability.

She looked at her several "little wives" and said smugly, "Do you know what kind of superpower your husband has awakened?"

The seven women were taken aback.

Zhou Yao suddenly opened her mouth, and a pink tongue stretched out, extending continuously, licking each of their faces like a nimble snake.

The seven women stared wide-eyed in astonishment at the sight.

The next moment, their faces turned bright red.

Zhou Yao, this lesbian, has awakened her tongue!

In the living room, Li An sat down next to Wang Wei and asked softly, "Big brother, when are you leaving?"

Wang Wei reached out and patted Li An's head, uttering two words: "Three days."

Li An's expression darkened, and he lowered his head without saying a word.

........

Upper Capital, underground urban living area.

Qian Mengxun's gaze remained fixed on the numbers on the circular electronic screen.

This woman is obsessed.

She didn't leave for a moment, standing in front of the screen all day, motionless, like a statue nailed to the spot.

Her fingers unconsciously clenched at her sides, her nails digging into her palms and drawing blood, but she was completely unaware.

His eyes were bloodshot, but a fire burned in his pupils.

It went on until midnight.

Qian Mengxun watched helplessly as the countdown numbers changed from "3" to "2".

The underground city of the capital was always warm and humid, but her fingers were icy cold.

It wasn't because of the cold, it was because of the excitement.

"Two more days..." Qian Mengxun murmured.

The next day, Qian Mengxun was still standing in front of the countdown screen.

However, other content began playing on the electronic screen.

At the same time, in the underground city living areas of the six major bases of the Dragon Kingdom, under Chen Junjie's arrangement, all electronic screens almost simultaneously began to broadcast the precautions for the Awakening of the Prosperous Era.

The moment of national awakening is fast approaching, and the six bases need to be prepared.

Otherwise, before disaster strikes, the base's underground living area might be destroyed by these suddenly awakened people.

On the electronic screen, a person with superpowers patiently explains how to quickly control their own superpowers after awakening.

It also introduces the classification of superpowers and their ranks, allowing those who are about to awaken to understand superpowers in advance.

Qian Mengxun had no interest in listening to any of this.

She's worried about her countdown!

Fortunately, the video explaining the superpowers only lasted half a day.

The presentation ended as afternoon approached.

The countdown reappeared on the large circular screen – 2.

Qian Mengxun finally breathed a sigh of relief.

As time went by, it approached midnight.

The circular electronic screen flickered – 1.

Qian Mengxun looked at the "1" on the screen.

"Only one day left," she whispered. "It'll be soon..."

The closer it gets, the harder it is to get through.

Time seemed to slow down!

at this time,

"boom--"

A series of supernatural energy fluctuations erupted!

In the underground urban living area of the capital city, a large number of people awaken.

It's not a few hundred people, not a few thousand people, but tens of thousands, soon approaching one hundred thousand.

The awakening began incessantly from the very beginning, with various supernatural energy fluctuations intertwining and shaking the entire city.

"Awakening... I've awakened!"

"I...I've awakened too, S-rank!"

"I'm Grade A!"

"Oh my god, I'm SSS-rank!"

Cries, laughter, screams, and exclamations mingled together, sweeping through the entire underground space like a tsunami.

Adults held their children and wept with joy, while many young people waved their hands, releasing the abilities they had just acquired.

Some people hugged their loved ones and wept bitterly, while others knelt on the ground to thank God.

A middle-aged woman squatted on the ground, covering her mouth with her hands, tears streaming down her face.

She used to be just a supermarket cashier; now, she's an S-class metal-type ability user.

She stared at the metallic blade materializing in her palm, unable to believe it was real.

An old man with white hair stood up shakily, and a thick burr of earth rose from the crack beneath his feet.

He stared blankly at his hands, his cloudy eyes filled with disbelief.

SSS-level Earth-type Ability.

A young girl floated in mid-air, her long hair flying, surrounded by golden, sharp, and piercing energy waves that seemed to cut through everything.

She closed her eyes, feeling the surging power within her, and a slight smile appeared on her lips.

SSS-level metal-type superpower.

At the same moment, on the surface of the capital city.

The superhumans on the city wall turned around at the same time and looked down at the city below.

The energy fluctuations emanating from underground were so intense that the entire city trembled slightly.

The snow on the city wall was shaken off and fell down in a soft rustling sound.

Chen Junjie stood on the city wall, his hands gripping the crenellations, feeling the tremors of the city beneath his feet.

His expression was calm, but a complex emotion flickered in his eyes.

"The Awakening of the Golden Age...has arrived as promised."

Dewey stood behind him, his gaze filled with shock: "Everything you predicted has come true."

Chen Junjie did not answer. He simply gazed into the distance.

There, in the direction of Jiangnan City, it was pitch black.

.......

Tianhai City, underground living area.

"I'm SSS-rank! I'm SSS-rank now!" A young man waved his fists, lightning dancing on his fingertips.

The people around him looked at him with envy.

In this era of awakening, A-rank is already very common, and only SSS-rank attracts everyone's attention.

In the southwest city, an elderly man who had just woken up from a coma held his grandson, tears streaming down his face.

He awakened an A-level water-based superpower, which, although not strong, was enough to protect his family in the apocalypse.

In Shanghai, a middle-aged man with a full beard squatted in a corner, his hands covering his face, his shoulders trembling violently.

He awakened an SS-level healing ability.

His wife went over and gently hugged him, and the two of them wept silently in a corner.

In the northeastern city, a teenager stood in the middle of a corridor, his hands raised high, flames erupting from his palms and illuminating the entire passageway.

Six major bases, hundreds of millions of people, began to awaken one after another at the same time.

The levels of superpowers range from A to SSS, but each person who awakens feels like they have been reborn.

Those ordinary people who once struggled to survive in the ruins, those elderly, weak, women and children who could only tremble in fear in the corner.

Finally, I managed to turn over and stand up.

The awakening lasted until dawn, then from morning until noon, and from noon until dusk.

For two whole days and two nights, there was not a moment's rest.

In the Awakening Era, one in ten people will awaken supernatural abilities.

The Dragon Kingdom currently has nearly 800 to 900 million people, which means that nearly 90 million people will gain extraordinary powers.

The revelry continued.

Those who awakened wept with joy, for they finally had the means to protect themselves in the end times.

But some people are filled with regret and resentment.

With a one in ten chance, most ordinary people still cannot awaken!

---

In the final revelry, there was one exception.
