Hi everyone just a heads up this is a rush work but the concept of the story is already here so basically well just discover more things about the war as the story have progressed but now you meet our mc at the last part of this chapter by the way Datu city is located in phillipines .
At the end of 2025 Chinas has becoming more aggressive on taking actions on multiple places being sanction by multiple countries does not affect the china's stand against there 9 dash line claim of the south china sea multiple Chinese vessel's were also sighted as far as the countries in the west. This action of china have also created more tension between the two giant country china also interfered in the stock market they created an economic crisis on their own. This moved of china has angered a lot of people countries decided to bond together to put a stop on china they never thought that china would fight back by crippling all of their economies.
This leads to multiple countries having uncontrolled rise in the inflation rate and chaos has descended on earth civil war has erupted at different places overnight America was not happy against this moved of china they decided to send some of their vessels on the south china sea but this lead to a more mistake. China have sent warning multiples times claiming that the area is under china's authority and the usa is trespassing but Americans are not afraid they thought that china was still afraid of their country but they are mistaken that they it was all over the news war ships of Americans have sunk over the south china sea.
This started the prelude to the great war now that china has the control to the artificial island on the south china sea it's almost impossible now for U.S navy to enter the region undercover. Patrols of Chinas navy have seen everywhere till the coastline of the Philippines even on the west Philippine sea some of the big vessels of china was seen patrolling the area and also submarine was used to check the underwater world.
Taiwan, Korea and Japan are not happy with this moved from china they are also one of the powerful and rich country on Asia that decided to fight against the behemoth country of China but resistance is futile china has intercepted all the vessels by launching the ICBM (Inter Continental Ballistic Missile). Everyone was caught off guard by this news, important ports airports and military bases are the target for this chaos. The radar of every country has detected the missiles too late to destroy all of them they managed to intercept some of the missiles but most of it have reach the target.
More than 200,000 people was reported to be dead under the attack of china to this 3 countries alone it happens on the eve of January 2 ,2026 just a day after the celebration of new year. Important military bases of these 3 countries are now damaged and most military personnel are now dead the military of the 3 countries are now almost paralyzed due to this attack. China has used tourism to spy with other countries and collected data tons of data they could used for retaliation. Before this happens every military is already on high alert after the sinking of American war ship on the south china sea but chinas action are too fast for them to make a decision.
Takahiro karma Japan's prime minister has decided to launch an attack on the coastal cities of china "This unprecedented attack against japan is a humiliation against our ancestor never have ever japan would surrender without a fight now all remaining military would focus on rebuilding al the important facility and our industry would produce more weapons of war "
The morning of January 3 japan has declared war against china this act was followed by the Korean and Taiwan government united states have also decided to join the war. In all international news the war against china has been published and know to public they taught that this act could deter the china to stop it from expanding but they taught wrong Russia and China has decided to allied together to fight the U.S and the rest of the world this created more conflict between countries. The U.S has retaliated by dropping nuclear bombs at the important cities in china and Russia this has angered both of the countries and decided to launch all nuclear weapons in their arsenal to target all the enemy.
This resulted on billions of lives lost and yet survivor did not stopped fighting, America has decided to launch all the cobalt bomb they have on their arsenal but china have managed to intercept 5 out 10 the radiation that it caused has covered the entirety of the globe. China and Russia have won the war but the consequences are too severe the surface of the planet in now covered by deadly radiation some part of globe are still healthy and doesn't have any toxics but not for long radiation is spreading really fast and they only have more than a year to solve this issue.
The result all the remaining countries have decided to stop the war against china and focus on solving the problem of the radiation the came up with the underground cities that would only the small amount of population this underground cities are called banker cities. There's no tall building in any underground cites all of it are tunnels upon tunnels with some special rooms for aqua culture and orchard.
The construction of all the cities have mobilized all the remaining forces on every country they have promised that everyone can lived underground but they all lied all the people who have helped the construction of bunker cites are not allowed to get in and died only the elites of the society have managed to survived.
But not all ordinary workers have died some of them have managed to get in those bunker cities before they closed all the gates but their situation is dire everyone has a label on their wrist that identified their status on the bunker.
Now groups are divided into two the inferior and the superior, inferior lives in the upper part of the banker cities since radiation was still able to penetrate the thick armor of the upper part of the bunker. They are build like a cylinder divided on multiple levels the biggest one known among the bunker cities is the one located in Tokyo.
Inferiors doesn't have any good treatment to any bunker cities since most of them are known as infected by the radiation and their genes are degenerating as the time passes by. They only have a limited supply of food, water and power but most importantly they are the one who fights against the intruders or the mutated since their location is near on the earth's surface.
We are the superiors we are responsible for the supply of power, water to the entirety of the bunker cities most superiors are located at the deepest part of bunker cities protected from any harm of radiation with enough food and water.
Inferiors are lucky since we allowed them to stay inside the bunker cities for free they have their own orchard and aqua center to grow their foods we supply them electricity in order for them to survive. Without us the superiors they would just die outside the cities full of mutated. The only thing we ask for them is to defend the entrance to the cities it's a win win situation for all.
Now class this is the only information we have on the archive of knowledge on the city most information humanity have are now lost forever the history of war is deemed as not as important for the knowledge of modern medicine and technology here on the Datu City. If you want to now more then you need to venture outside and locate all the other underground cities maybe they have some information regarding the war. That is if you will survive out there said by our professor for history mrs. Barns
I know you have a lot of question but you are all lucky that you are born as a superior just imagine your life if you are born as an inferior you would not be able to enjoy all the things we have out here on the Datu city. Now the city is divided into two corner the upper floor and the lower floor now here on the lower floor we can enjoy plenty of food we have enough medication for everyone of us so don't let the inferior the lich on us we are already kind enough to provide them electricity and shelter.
Now for the next class we will discuss what are the jobs available for us here in the datu city before I end the discussion does anyone of you have any question?
Ah Mrs.barns I have a question do we have any information about the surface I mean its been 25 years since the last superiors have gone onto the surface maybe we can already live out there.
Good question John its already 30 years since the war has ended we managed to survive here in Datu city its because we have our own nuclear power plant but the energy reserves we have are only enough for 300 years we already consume the 10% of it that's why we are now limiting the supply of power in the upper floor. Yes we tried to send someone out on the surface but the radiation level is still too severe for us we can only stay there for 4 hours more than that we would have irreparable damage the last mission happens 5 years ago and there was no good news the surface is now covered by the mutated we can not survived out there without any decent weapons.
So in the semester we would discuss about the different mutated that can be found in the surface so we are going on the border of the city between the upper floor and lower floor class dismiss enjoy your weekends.
As a I get out of our classroom I observe everything that I always see for the fast 15 years I was born on the Datu city 15 years after the war the only information we have about the surface is pictures about the former glory of the planet. Everything is green tall buildings on every metro politan cities stars on the sky at night but now when I look up the only thing I could see is light from the lightbulb smooth metal walls the corridor is at least 4 meter high and 4meter wide.
We now lived inside this enclosed walls underneath the earth since I saw the picture of earth I always longed to be outside and look at the sky the stars but that's impossible I might need to spend the rest of my life here on the city. My name is Ethan 15 years old I taught I will spend the rest of my lfe here on bunker cities but I am wrong the disaster is not yet ended little did I know that these 15 years are most peaceful time of my life here on Datu city the rest are in chaos and this is my story.
