Chapter 330: 330
When Zuan mentioned feasting and revelry, Lu Shu’s heart was itching . Although he did not plan on doing anything, he had never been to those places after all .
It was normal for one to experience a surplus of hormones in his puberty years . But Lu Shu actually had no guts for anything, even if he was told to do it .
Conflicted, Lu Shu sat in the front passenger seat and thought, if they were really heading to that kind of place, how could he pretend that it wasn’t his first time there? That was the burning question!
However, their final destination was a rundown factory-looking building, situated in the suburbs . There were even weeds outside its courtyard . Lu Shu was confused, why did this not seem right?
At the entry, Lu Shu suddenly saw six security guards standing in the yard . A young man, dressed in a Chinese cotton shirt, was sitting next to them with his eyes closed, composed . To Lu Shu’s surprise, there were energy waves from the young man .
After the car stopped within the gates, Chen Zuan lowered his window and flashed his VIP card . Only when Chen Zuan showed up, the young man opened his eyes and smiled at the latter, but still remained seated .
He was probably the coolest security guard Lu Shu had ever seen .
Chen Zuan murmured, “Though he’s a Class D Metahuman, strangely the Heavenly Network doesn’t pay much attention to him . Actually that’s pretty normal, but people like him who dare to walk around brazenly are still a rarity . “
“If you don’t think he’s self-conceited enough . Before I got promoted to Captain and ascended to Class D with my rewards, he wouldn’t even bother to greet me,” Chen Zuan complained .
After the incident at Salt Lake remains, the greatest credit was given to Lu Shu in the end . But Chen Zuan was already fully satisfied, his ranking as a Captain was enough for him to hold his head high .

Lu Shu nodded . As the saying went, one who is too clever has no friends . Before he got in touch with the real world, his judgment could only be based on the Golden Foundation comments . Now, however, he started to realize that the Heavenly Network did not have full control over every Practitioner and Metahuman in the country .
But… What happened to the feasting and revelry?
The abandoned factory was rather spacious as it occupied more than one hundred hectares of land . Young men and women were gliding to and fro among the buildings, but there were no pretty and cute girls in revealing clothing as Lu Shu had imagined . Most of them were dressed in sportswear…
Lu Shu felt cheated .
After Chen Zuan parked his car, Lu Shu suddenly heard a gunshot from one of the buildings . The shot definitely did not sound like one from an ordinary gun… Was it a rifle?
“Brother Shu, you can sign up for membership here too . For Practitioners, the card registration is free,” Chen Zuan locked his car and smiled, “There are no cocktail parties or night performances, all we have are things like guns, boxing, Practitioner matches and extreme games . A few years ago in a nightclub, a champagne tower was considered the lowest level acceptable . Now, people are no longer interested in that unfashionable stuff . ”
Lu Shu was dumbfounded for a few minutes . Since Practitioners could get free membership, he could roughly guess the function of the place . Speaking of which, they changed their activities to keep up with the new fashion, but Lu Shu had no interest in violence . To Lu Shu who had already ascended to Class C, those activities had no appeal at all . He still preferred unfashionable stuff…
What about those pretty and cute girls? Huh?!

Chen Zuan brought Lu Shu to the shooting range first, where two people were playing with guns . There were a pile of guns on the counter, but Lu Shu could not name any .
Chen Zuan smiled, “Actually many were disappointed, as not everybody had the aptitude for cultivation . At first, people went with the flow, starting with guns and boxing but suddenly, violence gained popularity . Then, some people realized that the fear of death could stimulate awakening, so things like extreme-sports and parkour began . After that, the club has been holding professional training sessions for parachuting, including certificates and scheduled skydiving outside with chartered planes . Would you believe me if I said a girl really awakened to her power while parachuting?”
Lu Shu could imagine that, since the rest would certainly risk their lives for that slim glimpse of hope following someone else’s success . After all, so many people went for arm wrestling with Liu Li .
Everything here was challenging Lu Shu’s beliefs . Initially he thought people like Chen Zuan would enjoy alcohol and flirt with pub girls all day, but it turned out that the life of the rich was beyond the imagination of someone as poor as him…
However, for an ungifted individual, the chances of awakening might be unthinkably faint .
Under the disguise of the dilapidated facade, the interior was very modern, forming a stark contrast with the weathered walls outside .
The pavement inside were rather advanced as well, with the road surface made of materials permeable to water .
“Let’s go . Guns are boring, let me show you actual combat,” Chen Zuan smirked, “Practitioners are the boss here . You’ll know it later . “
Following Chen Zuan, Lu Shu walked towards the innermost factory building . He actually heard waves of cheering inside .
Lu Shu took a look inside . Surprisingly, there were as many, if not more, girls than guys . He expected the former to be uninterested in those activities, but the reality showed otherwise .
They looked like fan-girls of some celebrity .
When Chen Zuan entered, one person brightened up and came to greet him, “Good to see you, Zuan! Wanna have a fight in the Lower Realm?”
“Haha, not today . I’m Class D anyway, my rivals will be begging for mercy if I fight in the Lower Realm,” Chen Zuan smiled faintly, but there was a tinge of overbearingness in his voice .
Lu Shu cast a glance at Chen Zuan, hehe, look at how proud he was!
Unexpectedly, in response to the provocation, the other person only smiled politely, “Indeed . They will be begging for your mercy, haha . “
Begging? His mercy?! You gotta be kidding me! Lu Shu was shocked, how weak were those people?!
Even Chen Zuan was considered an ace here?
At first, with the impression that the club members were all sky-divers and snipers, Lu Shu held them in high regard . But now… their image suddenly plunged .
The man turned to Lu Shu, “This is?”
Chen Zuan grinned, “Haha, this is my guest, a pro!”
The man was curious, “A pro? Even better than you?”
Chen Zuan’s face froze for a second, and then he burst into hearty laughter, “Hahaha, about the same!”
LOL, don’t you have some bloody idea whether we are about the same?

How the Stars Turned Red
Announcement as of 05 July 2022: I've been diagnosed with some pretty severe nerve damage in my left arm, rendering me unable to write effectively, and as such this story is on hold until it is healed. I am so sorry, and I promise to get back to writing as soon as possible. In the latter half of the 3rd millennium CE, humanity has spread across the stars, inhabiting close to five-hundred worlds across the Orion Arm. Earth has become irrelevant, a historical has-been. The galactic map is dominated by two mega-factions, both controlling vast amounts of territories either through direct control or through their many allies and treaty signatories. The Kingdom of Aurora is the political and economic hegemon despite consisting of only seven inhabited worlds; their strength lies in the Royal Union, an interstellar commonwealth composing an internal market and a common defence pact. These member worlds are myriad and varied, culturally as well as politically, but they all flock to the same banner. The Independent Systems Alliance, spearheaded by the Republic of Elysium, is the ascendant challenger to Aurora and the Union. A pseudo-federal multi-system polity, the Alliance economy and military is rapidly expanding, but at the cost of effective democratic and meritocratic involvement by its people. However, with two superpowers as this, chafing along a common border, and with a constant clamour of polemics, both sides have become convinced the other is constantly preparing for war and are on the look-out for any perceived weakness in their opponent. The predictable result is a huge arms race and a cold war spreading across the stars, requiring only a spark to set the galaxy aflame. Drawn into this game of high stakes are ordinary men and women, their peaceful lives, hopes, and aspirations swallowed by the vortex of conflict and distrust. This is their story. Cover art by Rhodex Designs (FB). Hope you like long chapters and adjectives. Note: English is not my first language. Another story set in the same universe, written by a good friend
