Ha-ha-ha, didnt see that one coming, did ya? Zhong Yu felt great aweso, in fact at the wolfs fate. Laying on the tree, he took his ti to enjoy the feeling before glancing down at the endless adow. Zhong Yu recalled the creek and found it to flow here. The grass closer to it grew as high as his waist.
Pondering, he stood up with caution and climbed up the cliff. The constant blood loss had him weary and his hand shaking. A couple of narrow escapes had his will tested again. I just escaped a wolf and now Im to die here? No! Zhong Yu gathered himself and dragged himself out of danger.
He lay on the edge gasping for breath. The serious wound wasnt helping either, sapping his energy and feeling like he would be a goner soon.
Even twitching a finger proved to be a toiling affair. Zhong Yu had a foreboding, that his body was giving up on him. As life ebbed out of him, it took its toll on his mind. Through the haze in his head, one question lingered on, What am I doing here? I dont want to die!
Crossing over, life was leaving him before he even got to et glorious civilization. Arent I the main character here? Wheres my rotten luck, my grandpa, my cheat? Im such a loser. A la neet whos death will an nothing to anyone. No one will care Im gone, only my parents. Lady Luck is a fickle mistress. It gave the greatest chance to a new life, only to turn it into a sick joke.
Zhong Yus mind was fading and losing touch with his body when a sudden ding brought him to focus.
Sensing hosts life draining. System restore. done. Imperial Conquest System is now online. Loading. done.
The voice was music to Zhong Yus ears, fueling his desire for life. Whos there? I didnt see anybody around.
Thinking of the bizarre way he himself was spirited away, Zhong Yu asked, Is that you, god? Whoever you are, save , please!
What greeted him was a monotonous voice. Fear not, host, for I am the Imperial Conquest System created by an unknown and all-powerful existence, having heard hosts plea. I am designed to assist host in the conquest of this strange new world.
He felt his strength coming back to him. How are my wounds gone? Is a god playing tricks on ? Zhong Yu rejoiced at having escaped certain death. But the high was short-lived.
This day had been packed with more excitent than all his life. From a boring and stable life, he first escaped death and now found this was another world. He was spent in mind and body, unable to even question his situation.
Of all the things happening today, he was at a loss where to lant or rejoice. What ca after was fear, How did I just slip into this strange land? And seeing its so primal forest, I just went on a stroll.
Only to end it with a deadly chase in form of a wolf on his tail. At least I ca out alive. Is a neets guard that lax? I need to shape up.
Hours later found Zhong Yu hiding in a tree, dozens of ter off the ground. Finding so semblance of safety at long last and getting a rest, he recalled that voice.
Imperial Conquest System, an unknown all-mighty existence, a strange new world, all ca back to Zhong Yu. With no danger addling his neet mind, he realized he was living the dream of every neet out there, to cross over.
Im not so down on my luck, after all. Maybe Lady Luck smiles upon . Exotic babes, co to daddy! And you, minnows, bow at my feet and greet Lord Zhong Yu!
System, are you self-aware and capable of emotion? Among the long list of webnovels he perused, there were plenty of systems ruling against their host.
The system is not self-aware, following strict protocols. I am no danger to host and host need not fear .
I see. Zhong Yu breathed easier at the chanical and cold reply. Now lets think this through. He took his ti formulating questions.
System, since you are to assist in conquering this strange world, what can you do? Do you have an exchange store or sothing? Can I see it?
My current functions are issuing quests and exchanging.
Quests are issued when hosts fulfills certain conditions. Host may complete these quests for system rewards. Systems flat voice ended, giving Zhong Yu ti to digest the new information before resuming.
The exchange function uses fortune the user amassed for a wide variety of items and personnel, acquiring sothing that would take decades in a matter of seconds.
Taking weapons as example, it would take months or years to make. While host just has to provide fortune and the item in question is offered. Sotis you might need a specialist or an army. They all take decades of education and drills to reach their peak, while host has to just give so fortune to have an instant army.
This is aweso! Why was history filled with great clans? Because of the talents they raised to rule the lands and give back resources and information. With a strict monopoly on resources and talents, a nation would ground to a halt. These clans dictated its glory and even the rise and fall of dynasties.
System, youve spoken for so long but not once explained fortune. What is it? Can you tell how I get it?
Fortune, the luck and fate every person is endowed with. For host to have it, you need to increase your clout on this strange world. That is how you extract the fortune of the people under your influence.
Live the good life in this world might very well be within reach with this. But why do I feel excitent brewing?
Then he exclaid, Almost forgot a crucial detail!
System, you said you can issue quests and can do exchanges. Currently. Does that an there are further features in store?
Correct, host needs only increase his power and reach, and by offering enough fortune, the system will unlock more features to help the host. To have a much better living in this world, host has to work for it.
Theres still many options blocked. I need to get to work!
