The pain was just too much. luckily, it seems the heavens indeed smiled favorably at him.
In his last moments of losing consciousness, Gray heard the system's emotionless voice.
Ding!~
[Congratulations, Host. Please stand by while the system upgrades the host's body. The host is about to be awakened.]
Hahahhahahahahhahah~
Him? An Awakener?
Worth it!... It was all worth it!
Gray finally fainted with a large grin on his bloodied face. It wasn't till 6 AM that Gray woke.
Snacking his lips and almost choking on the harmless mutated green bugs in the dumpster, Gray had his first meal for the day.
Pleh!~
So disgusting. It tasted so bad.
The routine garbage workers on the surface grounds were also shocked to see the young badly bruised boy jump out the bin.
"What's going on? Bullied so much you have to sleep in a dumpster?"
"Go! Hey out of here kid! Or are you trying to steal valuable items for yourself? Dare to take our things in our turf?"
Then many garbage workers were furious.
Don't look down on their garbage job.
Since it was a surface job, it had better pay and lesser work hours.
For one, most garbage workers, though starting early at work, finish the jobs by 4 PM.
That was a dream life for many down below the surface. What's more, they also got 2 days off too.
Damn!
Talk about being lucky.
Maybe the best and most rewarding aspect of collecting garbage was that the wealthy threw away valuable items they considered as trash.
What they typically did was come way earlier than scheduled to rummage around the garbage treasure hunting.
Now seeing Gray jump out of their precious stash, how can they be happy?
No one felt pity for him despite his condition.
What? If they began pitying everyone, then who would out them?
Society has beaten them so badly to this state that they would even be willing to burn, crucify, hang or offer anyone who takes their stash as a sacrifice.
Don't blame them for being cruel. Their families especially children, depend on the thrown-away materials of those higher in status.
Who knows, maybe they could find a few doors of a powerful elixir in its original container there.
Yes! They are free that they are rats!
They are rats very willing to scavenge for goods and opportunities to better their lives.
Many of them got these surface jobs because their children became awakeners.
They were now struggling to find other raw materials that could make their other children become awakened too.
The more awakeners are in one's family, the fewer work days they'll get. Their jobs would also change too.
A few of them know of one or two people with 3 children in their families who all turned into awakeners
Do you know where these people now work? As surface factory workers with an incredible pay, only working 4 days a week, on a 7-hour shift.
That was the life… The dream life.
Do you think they too don't want that life?
–---
"Thief! Thief! Stop him now!"
Shit!
Gray cursed under his breath, surprised by the immense strength he now felt. Everyone else was also flabbergasted to see the boy covered in blood flying so fast.
This alleyway was usually used by the famous Adler Gannon's gang bullies. The treasures they typically found were amazing.
Sure enough, this boy should have tasted some potion thrown in the bin for him to speed up so fast.
Dammit!
Gritting their teeth, they sore that should they ever meet up with this thief, they would definitely throw wood at him and burn him alive.
If they could, they wished they had the ability to throw weapons high in the air and kill the son of a bitch from a distance.
"Don't let us find out who you are or you are dead meat!"
(*x*)
Phew~
Gray ran to a safe location, hiding behind a wall and secretly checking if he was being flowed or not.
It was times like these that made him realize just how vicious their current world was.
Whether one was an awakened human or an ordinary one, everyone was more ruthless than one could imagine.
All this for scrapes of junk from the bins?
Sigh…
What has humanity turned into?
Looking at the sky and his shadow, the shadows of the other buildings and the thickness of the morning fog, Gray couldn't help exclaiming with both hands on his head.
SHIT!
He's going to be late for school if he doesn't go home now and freshen up.
The school rules were very unfavorable to people like him should they make a single mistake.
It was odd that he should feel his body ache all over yet he now felt stronger than ever instead.
So what changed?

My Survival System In An Apocalyptic World A Chaotic World
Oh My God! ('O') Gray had a new level of fear and respect for Spade who had given him so many points with a single throw. The others might not know, but before throwing him into the garbage bin, Gray definitely felt his bones snap, his legs twist and his body crippled. He was sure Spade wanted him to never use his arms or limbs again. It might seem like he was protecting Gray, but that bastard was also recharging a lesson for standing against Adler Gannon. Thanks to the evil villain, he was not only able to gain enough points to become an awakener but was also able to increase his strength, agility, physique, and even his Punching Bag armor body. Listening to their conversation, he understood that Spade didn't care if he was crippled. Provided he didn't die, it was all good since it didn't cause any major backlashes for the Gannon household. Just because they won't do it openly, doesn't mean he was safe in private. "I better continue pretending as though I'm limping or h
My Survival System In An Apocalyptic World Shameless!
Pah!Teacher Kang slapped a well-folded paper in his hands, watching the many people entering, knowing there were only 42 more seconds left before the gates closed.No way!He can't afford to be late. Even if he was truly crippled, he would still get punished. Don't you see the other injured people crawling on the ground to make it on time? [Humans before the Apocalyptic era]: ("_")... erm… aren't you all being a little too harsh here?.Not Good. Time was really running out for them!As if this was some blockbuster movie, many people felt the same, squinting their eyes and kicking their feet with every muscle in their body.~Tick-Tock. Tick-Tock. The imaginary clocks in their brains began ticking as many grabbed others in their way, pushing them back.Hell!Others even jumped over the fallen, with some stepping on their bodies for a bigger boost. Yes!They believed they could fly, and fly they did with some somersaulting forward like assassins. "Move, dammit! None of you are go
My Survival System In An Apocalyptic World Watchful Eyes
(~-_-~) Teacher Kang had even more black lines on his face, watching the already madly injured and soaked Gray stand from the fountain's pond, turning his butt to face everyone while placing his hands on his ears to mock them. Why didn't he notice how shameless Gray was? What was he? 3? Even a 3-year-old could act better than him. "Lalalalalalalalalalalala~... I'm safe, I'm safe, you all cannot hit me, you all cannot touch me, I'm safe I'm safe, I'm fucking safe, so you can all kiss my ass!" Teacher Kang was amazed at how one person had the ability to anger the masses. Everyone who was about to receive punishment had fiery eyes that for a moment glowed an imaginary red and evil hue. Their fists were clenched and even the ordinary people had a menacing aura that was hard to miss. Their hairs were standing up in fury and Teacher Kang felt that should he throw Gray from the fountain into the masses, he might be beaten to death, eaten alive, and even his bones boiled in a broth
My Survival System In An Apocalyptic World All Eyes On Him
Spade would have found it all suspicious if not for the boy's painful cries when walking alone with 'no one' around.Every little step looked like he was walking on nails as tall as trees. At times, he even heard the boy curse his ill fate for meeting him last night. The boy also went on and on about wanting to walk straight someday too. He cursed and resented the heavens as if they were the ones who injured him. This alone proved his actions last night were proficient. It can only be seen that due to the boy's extraordinary endurance levels, he was able to pretend to be strong in front of others and swallow his pain quietly, probably not wanting others to further look down on him.Heh. Spade tapped his fingers on the balcony rails rhythmically, his eyes growing colder with disgust. "He does have a high endurance level, but that's all there is to it. With his capabilities and lowly spirit score, he won't become anything else other than an underground worker, keeping this bloody s
My Survival System In An Apocalyptic World Strange Powers
Here we go again. Stepping into his class, Gray suddenly felt he was being targeted by the whole world. "Gray Ravenleaf! Stop for me!"The sexy Teacher Han roared with undisguised disgust."Trash like you is still coming late despite your capabilities?""But--" "Shut up!" Miss Han threw a piece of chalk violently at his desk, causing a deep hole on its surface. "You still dare to quibble? Stand up on your desk for me!"Miss Han hated poor people the most, talk less of those without talent!It was one to be poor, but now, you also have no talent, then what's the use of you?If she were the one, she would just jump over a building and end it all.Pushing flicking her luscious green hair, she moved her seductive body across the aisle, toward Gray. The green aura she released was no joke, as it particularly choked Gray. Gray felt an invisible force strangling his neck. The feeling was very uncomfortable.Everyone also chuckled in excitement, wanting to watch the good show that was a
My Survival System In An Apocalyptic World Been Found Out?
Although it wasn't ideal, Gray decided to do it with the new skill bestowed on him by the system. Back to reality, no more than 2 seconds had gone by since Gray began talking with the system. All onlookers were shocked by how long Gray had stayed alive since his daring act. "You!--"Teacher Han woke from her stupor, holding her chest in defense and stepping back with anger and shame written all over her face. It was so shameful that a young vibrant girl of 89 like herself was feeling overwhelmed and intimidated by this trash's disgusting eyes.(Although She was 89, her face looked to be in her late teens.)Teacher Han felt a shiver crawl up her spine when lifting her head to stare at the boy whose eyes were still shamelessly glued on her perky bosoms. She indeed undid 2 of her bottoms for maximum sex appeal, but did she ever say she wanted it from a little brat who didn't even have money or power?How disgusting!She felt as though worms were crawling on her body from the thought
My Survival System In An Apocalyptic World Z-Sphere: Home Sweet Home
Leaving the school premises with a limping leg and a bloodied body, Gray's thoughts were far. The stronghold he was in is often ranked 27th out of 30 within The Z-Sphere Area.Just like the letter represented, Z-sphere was the worst place to live in in this Apocalyptic era.Resources for evolution and advancement were hard to find here, and even the air was too polluted compared to other reasons.The fog was thicker and everything was just so dull. More importantly, the zombies and mutated creatures here were too weak to boost an awkener's fighting capabilities.Strong zombies only thrive in places where opportunities can be found. They were drawn to those places like flies following light on a dark night. It was because the air in those regions was also infused with rich vitality that could make one rank up faster. Thus, a place like Z-sphere, which was way down the Alphabetical order, was also humanity's weakest and undesirable zone. Feeling his goggles clog up again with dirt

Settling In
Venturing into the academy, everyone was not disappointed. There were towering castle-like stony buildings scattered around with magnificent giant statutes. Wow! Was that water flowing out from the mouths of several stone dragon heads? Gray had never seen anything like this before! The buildings were all so gigantic, and the space stretched out for as far as the eyes could see, enclosing many hills, paths and terrains. Some buildings stood on hills, others stood on cliff sides, and some stood on ground floor with massive ancient fountains shooting out at the center of their many courtyards.Many people's hearts hammered in their chests, feeling country bumpkins seeing city life for the first time. Everyone who has gotten accepted into the academy, was obviously an awakened human. So kicking their feet, they steadily ran forward to cover more ground. Walking normally will take them forever to get to their quarters. So how dare they dilly dally when nightfall had already come?

Making A Big Splash?
After fighting, boxing, stabbing and punching, Gray finally saw the academy’s silhouette from a distance. “Really there?” Real or fake? The siblings, Fariel and Faron, who were behind Gray, were painting heavily, wondering how this guy could fight and keep running at the speed he did without even breaking a sweat. You have to know that they were panting so hard after running 5 hours at max speed while carrying their luggage. Fortunately, this guy didn't mind fighting off the many underground creatures and clearing the path for them. Who was he truly? Could this guy be a senior and not a first year like them? Giving each other tactful stares, suddenly, they didn't feel like geniuses anymore after being with Gray for this short time. Just this accident that happened earlier, allowed them to know how big the world truly was. Forget revenge. They must first grow strong enough to survive before thinking of ever making a move at their cousin who clearly had all the resources an

In another corner, a broken down vehicle was getting ambushed by flesh eating plants from all corners. The vines yanked the massive metal tires away, before reaching force to tears the rest of the vehicle apart. Bam! The 2 siblings in the vehicle broke through the vehicle’s roof, getting on it while fighting the many vines that came their way. “Brother!” The dainty girl with brown hair in a ponytail and short bangs, quickly called to her brother when feeling a sharp pain on her left leg. Oh no! One of the spiky vines was now wrapped several times around her leg, pulling her away without mercy. “Sister!!!” ~Slash! Slash! Slash! The brown curly haired boy sliced and diced with his long twin blades with a pale face when seeing his sister getting dragged into the ground below. They were supposed to go to the academy, grow strong together, so they can finally take their revenge on their despicable cousin who caused their parent’s deaths. Their journey towards revenge had just

Vrmmmmm! The vehicle roared to life, its engine bellowing like a beast unleashed. Gray's cheeks flapped wildly, his gums fully exposed as Yegan's car surged forward with incredible speed. "Fuck!" Gray cursed inwardly, his fingers digging into the seat. In this post-apocalyptic era, seatbelts were a forgotten luxury, a relic of a safer past. Just having a car, especially one pieced together from rusted scrap, was a miracle in itself. If Gray had been born before the apocalypse, he would have marveled at these current steampunk-inspired vehicles that ran on water and sometimes coal. The engin

The Aftermath
The Dean looked at Yegan's gangster attitude and wasn't offended. Reaching for the bottom of his desk, he calmly took out 2 vials and threw them Gray's way. Gray held on to them in confusion but soon understood their uses thanks to the dean and the system. The first was a Grade Z-3 Energy gathering elixir. It was blue and would make many newly awakened humans breakthrough in strength. Having a Z-3 grade potion was very unbelievable. Do you know what Z-3 is? In Z-sphere, pills, potions and elixirs are graded from Z-1 to Z-6. Weapons and skills are also graded as such. For people like them at the bottom of the awakened food chain, a Z-3 potion was like a godly item dropped from the heavens. The next vial contained 4 red booster pills that will give anyone additional strength for at most an hour after taking it. It's just that your eyes will give away the fact that you took it. Still, when fighting for your life out in the forest or dangerous places, who cares if your ey

"Teacher," Lohan's voice humbly bellowed. "Apologies, won't be going with you at once. But I swear to report to the academy soonest."He came from a clan and had several matters to finalize before leaving. What's more, if he left his mother without so much as a simple goodbye, he truly believed the woman would storm the academy and break in just to give him a good beating. Don't underestimate his mother. In their clan, although his father was a Patriarch, his mother was stronger than his father. It's said that growing up, his mother used to beat his father in battles so badly that anyone with common sense would stay away. But his father seemed to be a different breed, sticking his mother like glue. One thing led to another and now, they're married with 2 children, himself and his younger sister. It was amazing how many times Lohan had heard his father falling off from bed from his mother's kicks. His mother loved wearing handles and always walked with her hands on her waist an

Leaving The Stronghold
Many recruiters stared at Yegan with envious eyes. This guy managed to indirectly recruit 4 of the top 6 giants into his school. Lucinda and Emelia were going to his academy, alongside Gray and Lohan who now had different identities, being his students.All 4 are going to Phoenix Tide Academy, who would've known the odds would be so different? Luckily for the other academies, they could still recruit a few more impressive students below the big 6. Of course, many talents had long decided to attend Yegan's academy too. It can be said that before today, several people had done their research, already having a clue of where they wanted him You could say that Gray was the only oddball who didn't even bother researching what academies would benefit him or not. After all, understand that it's just recently that the system came to him. With his previous 1.4 spirit score, although he didn't want to give up, he subconsciously knew his fate. Thus, never bothered researching the big acad

Yegan's Past
True or false? Many looked at the intimidating Yegan and suddenly felt shivers crew up their spines. Gray's head was lowered, so no one could see what his expression was. But if it were them, they would definitely jump at the chance of leaving Yegan's side. F***! Didn't you know what the female recruiter said? The last time Yegan had a student 35 years ago, his training was so intense that the student appealed to the academy on his knees, crying and begging for a way out. The student looked like he was begging for his life, even promising to work free for the academy and do multiple jobs on their behalf if it meant he would never get Yegan as his teacher again. Yegan has only had 2 students he took in all his life. The first one unfortunately died out on a mission and the 2nd disgraced him, throwing his face when begging to be removed from his care. People speculate that Yegan began stricter in his teachings after the death of his last Student. Anyway, the one pleading gave

"What is it? What is it?... What is the score?"Many people poked their heads over other's shoulders, clenching their fists to bite the anxiety that was eating them up inside. And then… the score finally stabilized. [49145]Boom! Many felt their chests, breathing in and out like crazy while others rubbed their eyes to ensure they weren't dreaming. 49 thousand, 1 hundred and 45.That score was too shocking! Many didn't even have to quench their shock before Gray bombarded them with another surprise attack. Putting his hands on the Spirit Ball, Gray felt the surge of energy explore every nuke and cranny of his body.It took a long time, a little longer than others .. and when it stopped, many cleaned in, forgetting to breathe.
