Chapter 1Chapter 1 Reclamation

The year 4015, February 15th, marked the seventh year since the Blood Moon energy eruption. After years of arduous struggle, people finally entered the post-disaster era, which started to stabilize, with wars and natural disasters slowly diminishing.

"Nanshan Base broadcast announcement: This year, our Nanshan Base has achieved a phased victory due to everyone's unity and joint efforts, ushering in a peaceful situation. We have preliminarily solved the problem of food and clothing.

This year, we will prioritize land reclamation and strive to plant more high-yield crops to ensure everyone has enough to eat. Wood Power Users willing to reclaim land may go to the citizen center to register. Seeds for grains and vegetables will be available in exchange for points and Contribution points. The Base, to encourage everyone to actively reclaim land, will offer a series of incentive policies, and the cap on Contribution points will also be increased..."

Listening to the broadcast that kept replaying, a slender, tall girl with short hair came down the street pushing a single-wheel cart toward the base gate.

This slender girl is Li Pan, a Wood Power User specially tasked with planting crops and doing farm work at the base. According to her labor harvest, she earns monthly Contribution points and a wage, plus a fixed amount of grain.

Now in the post-disaster stable period, the sudden appearance of the Blood Moon on Water Blue Star had caused an energy riot, leading to whirlwinds, tsunamis, heavy rains, earthquakes, geomagnetic waves, and a series of natural disasters. Humanity discovered, in despair, that a portion of the population had gained superpowers. However, before they could rejoice, they faced the frenzied attacks of mutated animals and plants.

Animals and plants had also mutated, and humans found themselves struggling to survive amidst the disasters brought on by these natural calamities.

During the disasters, the military, government workers, scientists, and medical personnel were the first to rush to the front lines, where batches of heroes fell.

Cities and rural areas became perilously unstable, and while people initially kept to themselves, reality quickly slapped them in the face.

In a large residential area, barely one in ten homeowners survived; communities with thousands were left with only dozens, as the population plunged to the brink of extinction.

With intense front-line battles, the logistics at the rear started to suffer from a shortage of workers, and various supplies couldn't reach the warriors on the front lines. Mao Tu Country on Water Blue Star swiftly entered a military-controlled era.

Under the organization and propaganda of government employees, everyone began to adopt a mode of unity and cooperation. Combat superpower users such as the Ice Element, Fire Element, Earth Element, Gold Element, and Thunder Department joined the military to fight the Mutant Beasts and protect their homeland.

Many superpower users with Water Power were healing-based and entered the medical system to treat the sick and save lives.

Wood Power Users, though weak in combat, excelled in planting and healing, staying at the rear to grow food and take care of logistics.

Other ordinary people worked in various positions at the base according to their abilities and pre-disaster educational level, such as teachers continuing their profession. Children needed education, which is the hope for the future, even during disasters.

For instance, ensuring everyone had electricity and that mobile communication remained basically smooth required people's work.

However, electricity was now rationed; there was power for two hours from eight to ten in the evening, with no supply to residents at other times to ensure energy for agriculture, medical care, and industry.

While mobile phones were usable, the signal was often weak, but within the base, basic smooth communication could be maintained.

As the Blood Moon lasted longer and its energy became more stable, people made it to the post-disaster era through countless difficulties. Those who survived were clearheaded and pragmatic.

There was also a basic understanding of the importance of unity and cooperation, especially among the weaker superpower users like those with Water and Wood Elements. They might not be on the front lines, but by healing soldiers and growing food, they significantly supported the warriors.

Especially the Wood Power Users, who at the beginning of the disaster were ridiculed and disdained for their inability to hunt as the Mutant Beasts evolved much faster than humans, leaving everyone struggling to protect themselves.

The military, however, promptly adjusted its policies, collecting Wood Power Users to work at the rear on farms. No matter how strong a warrior, they still needed to eat, and due to their bodies' alterations by their superpowers, they had better physical capabilities than ordinary people—consuming more and, consequently, needing more food.

Although Wood Power Users were weaker in combat, they knew how to plant and some could heal, ensuring that everyone could be well-fed, which was critical.

Even the most powerful superpower users had families and children who needed to eat. Food was indispensable, and it was imperative for everyone to be united and cooperate in their assigned roles.

Caring for Mr. Mutant

[COMPLETED] How can a Mutant and a Mutant Caretaker fight for their love, if science is their greatest enemy? ------------------------ Year 2023: Random DNA mutations suddenly occurred around the world. These mutations caused newborn babies to acquire animal traits, and no one knows why or where they originated. Year 2033: When funds, advanced technology, and a capable workforce became available to study these mutants, a national team of scientists was formed, called the "DNA Mutation Cadre" or "D.M. Cadre". They were given modern, state-of-the-art laboratories complete with equipment and isolation rooms. Here, mutants were studied and monitored in exchange for a large sum of money and government assistance. Year 2048: In the busy city of Makylee, a 25-year-old part-timer, Lia Brentvale, got fired from her two part-time jobs in just one unlucky day. Since her parents aren’t around, she’s the breadwinner of her family, providing for her two college brothers. She applied as a Mutant Caretaker in the D.M. Cadre Research Facility and after passing their exam, she was assigned to the mysterious and aloof vulture mutant. But as she got to know him, she also learned more about D.M. Cadre. Together with her hacker friend and their batchmates, they tried to uncover the deep secrets that lie within the research facility. ------------------------ PREVIEW: Aesop had always felt that being a mutant is a curse. But upon meeting Lia, he started accepting himself. Lia was always pointing out his strong points. She was always encouraging him to enhance his skills and discover his talents. She always tells him not to think of himself as a test subject just like how the scientists treat him. She reassured him that even though he's a mutant, he's not less than a person, so he shouldn't look down on himself. It was her uplifting words and her mere existence that gave color to his monochrome life. "Lia… I love you," Aesop uttered as his golden eyes stared through her deep blue eyes. "Ae, I… I love you, too," Lia then wrapped her arms around Aesop's neck, drawing in close to him. Aesop's hands slid down to Lia's lower back, and he embraced her. Their heartbeats quicken as their lips graze against each other. Lia thought it would be just a simple kiss, just like they had always done after their very first kiss, but she was wrong. Aesop's right hand suddenly caressed her back, then he placed it at the back of her head, pulling her to him with a little force. The vulture mutant's majestic wings enveloped them, and it was as if he was owning her. Aesop's wet tongue slid into her mouth, and it surprised her. She tried to resist, but with his hand at the back of her head, she couldn't get away from him. Eventually, she gave in to that passionate kiss... NOTE: Not a superhero story, but tackled more of science ethics and social issues ------------------------ UPDATE: Added CFMM Special - The Afterstory chapters after the Finale.
