【You have experienced a painless transmigration】
【When you open your eyes, you find yourself in a world of steam and magic, and your body has reverted to that of a 15-year-old, frail and ordinary】
【You have no identification, no money, and not even a bowl to your name】
【As a transmigrator, you are not too panicked. You calmly survey your surroundings, ready to start from scratch in this world】
【Though the body of a 15-year-old is not yet fully developed, it is capable of self-reliance. This is your greatest asset and confidence. You cheer yourself on in your heart, struggling to climb out of the filthy water】
The roar of steam.
The meshing of gears.
The efficiency of magic.
At night, steel and steam, magic and mystery, together form the central hub of this massive city.
What wakes Xu Xi is an incredibly sharp, prolonged whistle.
“Doo—!!!”
He opens his eyes.
High red walls block both sides, leaving only a narrow space in the middle, revealing the dim sky and the faint glow of yellow streetlights.
Suddenly, scorching white steam erupts from somewhere.
It shoots high into the sky.
Collides with the cold night wind.
Forms a dense mist of scattered water droplets, which then dissipate into fog, slowly and evenly spreading to every corner of the city.
This fog greatly obscures vision, and from time to time, curses can be heard from various parts of the city.
Then.
Xu Xi sees it.
A figure in a robe, holding a wand, floats in the air, casually waving it, and a massive firestorm appears, devouring the fog.
The city falls silent once more.
Praise the omnipotent magic and the noble Fire God.
People pray like this.
This era is so wondrous, with the faith of gods spread across the land, the might of magic held high, and the convenience of steam. Yet, in the great corners, there are also some overlooked shadows.
“What can I say? Couldn’t the simulation have given me a better start?”
Xu Xi struggles.
He laboriously climbs out of the alley.
The alley is filled with black, filthy water, stinking and strangely corrosive. Compared to the last simulation’s famine-stricken start, this is just as miserable.
Xu Xi strongly suspects that the simulator is deliberately messing with him.
“In any case, I’ll first figure out the basics—food, clothing, shelter, and transportation—and then consider delving into magic.”
After standing up.
Xu Xi staggers out of the alley.
In this new simulation world, he has no trace of supernatural power, nor does he possess the Eternal Tear, so he can’t rely on his sister’s support.
Fortunately, he has three trait talents, so self-reliance is still possible.
【You have taken the first difficult step】
【Through inquiries, you learn that your current location is Allenson City, located in the northern part of the world. This is a large city powered by highly efficient steam machinery, primarily worshiping the Fire God, the Blacksmith God, and the Harvest Goddess】
【As a newcomer, you choose to earn your first bucket of gold through manual labor】
【You succeed. Though you’re half-dead from exhaustion, you’ve earned your first meal and your first meager sum of money—a whole three copper coins】
【You count them for ten minutes】
【You are immensely relieved. Everything is going according to your plan】
【You choose to temporarily settle in the slums. Here, food is cheap and good, and you don’t need to rent a house. A few sheets of metal on a muddy patch of land become your new home】
……
【A year has passed. In this year, you have successfully grasped the basic intelligence of the world and know what to do next】
【This is an era ruled by gods】
【Countless people rely on their faith in gods to gain the ability to wield magic. The deeper the faith, the stronger the magic. Some are even chosen as the gods’ representatives, known as demigods】
【There are also those who choose to practice magic without relying on the gods, known as elemental mages】
【By perceiving all things and establishing a connection with the elements, they can unleash magic】
【This is an extremely difficult path. While faith in gods allows one to become strong in a short time with enough devotion, elemental mages can only progress step by step, and few choose this path】
【You smile. You happen to possess an excellent talent for elemental perception】
【At the same time, you have no interest in worshiping gods】
【You spend all the savings you’ve painstakingly accumulated over a year to buy a bottle of the lowest-grade slime mucus from a shop in the city center. This is the most inferior magical material known, and the only thing you can afford】
A year later.
The slums.
Ignoring the pervasive stench, Xu Xi sits expressionless in his ‘home.’
If a few sheets of metal pieced together on a muddy patch of land can be called a home.
“A year… tsk.”
“Though the senses in the simulation world aren’t as sharp as in the real world, I’ve truly had enough of this slum life for a year.”
Xu Xi sighs, shaking the transparent, colorless slime mucus in his hand.
The mucus is sealed tightly in a transparent bottle, slowly sloshing back and forth as he shakes it.
Using slime mucus for cultivation.
This is an impossible feat.
But Xu Xi is different.
Long ago, when Xu Xi chose the magic side as the new simulation world, he prepared extensively for it, having already secured meditation techniques for magic cultivation and studied various cultivation practices.
Moreover, in this simulation, he possesses the special trait of elemental perception.
Thus.
A miracle that should have been impossible is born in the slums.
……
【You have become a magic apprentice】
【Through meditation, you successfully perceive the life element within the slime mucus. Your mind is unusually calm, reaching the limit of what a mortal can achieve, and you engrave this elemental fluctuation in your spiritual sea】
【You have thus learned the 0th-level magic: Life Mucus Generation】
【You leave the slums and head to the Mage Association in the center of Allenson City, registering and enrolling as a magic apprentice, with a monthly stipend of 10 silver coins】
【Your life has genuinely improved】
【You have crossed class boundaries, rising from a slum dweller to a revered magic apprentice. Everyone is shocked by you and believes you to be a devout follower of the Life Goddess】
【For in this world, elemental mages are exceedingly rare. Even if someone wishes to learn, it is difficult to perceive the elements. They are considered to exist only in stories】
【You smile, neither confirming nor denying】
【In an era where everyone worships gods, atheists are seen as heretics. The misunderstanding others have of you allows you to live more safely】
e, Immortal Body, Transmigration, System, Progression Fantasy, Academy Setting, Third-Person Perspective. Alternate Title: Transmigrating into a High Martial World and Reading Live Comments. Bad news: I transmigrated. This is a terrifying high-martial world, and my original, pathetically weak body fell into a coma and never woke up. Good news: I got a Popularity Points system upon arrival. I can see live comments and even create an unkillable alternate identity. Starting out, the alternate identity has all stats at 1. The system tells me that to grow stronger, I must participate in the plot, gain popularity points to allocate stats and grow stronger, and ultimately awaken my original body. And so, carrying my original body on my back, I officially entered Huaqing Academy, where the story's protagonist resides. From that moment on, Chen Guan kicked the original plot to pieces. Live Comments: [Doesn't anyone find this mysterious coffin guy creepy? He can summon indescribable grey misty hands.] [Is this guy a hero or a villain? What kind of onion became a spirit?] [By the way, does anyone know who's in the coffin? Shouldn't the debt for saving his life be repaid by now?] [According to unofficial histories, the person in the coffin was Chen Guan's first love. Their love was once passionate and earth-shattering, but they were separated by life and death due to worldly circumstances. What a star-crossed pair.] ... Years later, the world knew of a demon god born from a coffin, shrouded in grey mist, impossible to gaze upon directly. His foremost divine emissary often wielded a scythe, reaping lives like the god of death. As war approached, facing former friends and a boundless sea of enemies, Chen Guan merely raised his scythe. "Would you like to dance as well?"
] This is a dark fantasy-themed dating simulation game. The main gameplay involves containing various monster girls and investigating the truth of a world shrouded in mist alongside your companions. However, due to his love for the dark and bizarre atmosphere, Luo Wei ended up turning a dating game into a detective mystery game. Women? Women only slow down his quickdraw! To Luo Wei, the female leads in the game are more like tools to perfectly clear levels and squeeze out rewards. For Luo Wei, flirting with every girl he meets and then discarding them is standard procedure. Worried about characters losing affection points? No need. With his maxed-out charm stat, Luo Wei is practically a "human incubus." A little psychological manipulation and those points come right back. It's a bit scummy, but the paper cutout heroines in the game won't actually come at him with real cleavers. However... Luo Wei has transmigrated. He's accidentally entered the second playthrough of this game. His past actions have caused all the girls to transform into terrifying yanderes. Due to the game's setting, most of the heroines he once contained are "troubled girls." Obsessive, twisted, mentally unstable, all aggressive yanderes... The type who will kill you if they can't have you... Luo Wei wants to cry but has no tears left. "I really just want to survive..." In short, this is a story of battling wits and engaging in a love-hate relationship with yanderes.
nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
s + Rent Collection Wealth】 At the start, he inherited a rundown house in the urban village from his grandfather. The house had no tenants, but the moment he was diagnosed with a terminal illness, a self-proclaimed empress from the Tianxuan Continent arrived as his first tenant.
