Chapter 1, The Beginning of Everything
Moreover, the host carries a multitude of bacteria and viruses from your world, which can easily mutate in this new environment. If it were spring with suitable temperatures and a sufficient flow of people, it is possible that the host could bring about a significant epidemic in this world
Save me, cure my illness!" Wang Yuan shouted, grasping at a lifeline
Please forgive me, host, as you do not possess the true words, and your language has too many homophones. I can only execute commands based on my understanding. The Heavenly System expressed its apologies, but the meaning of complete apology is: for example, the following sentence, "wear as much as you can," has different interpretations in different seasons
Because this world possesses a unique characteristic of fate. The cold voice of the Heavenly System slowly stated: In most other worlds, the operation of things is influenced by something known as luck, the pinnacle of which is the protagonist's halo.
In a desolate wilderness, the bleak autumn wind did not dampen Wang Yuan's good mood. After all, he had obtained the Multiverse System, allowing him to traverse countless worlds. Who would believe him if he claimed he was not the protagonist? Just thinking about the wonderful life ahead brought him joy
The time travel technology of this system is extremely stable and will not cause any harm to humans
By accomplishing these three points, the protagonist's halo on the host will be firmly within the grasp of this system
I want to go home, I want to go home, I want to see a doctor!" Wang Yuan shouted frantically
Looking back now, he was completely unaware of how many mistakes he had made from beginning to end. He naively placed absolute trust in this mysterious system, without a second thought, and followed it into this other world. Now, dying here is entirely his own doing
Ordinary acclimatization issues merely result in diarrhea, but this is an alternate world. The host's body is adapted to the environment of Asia on Earth. In this new world, there are new pathogens, and the host's immune system struggles to function effectively in this environment.
It is not the system that has killed the host, after all, that would prevent the acquisition of the protagonist's halo. The host was killed by the environment here, and the system has already assisted the host as requested.
"Hmm? Why?" Wang Yuan observed the situation in the other world, not sensing the impending danger, and asked curiously
This world is classified as a low-magic world, where primitive witch doctors and life cultivation methods are prevalent. The majority of the population is Caucasian, resembling the Western Middle Ages of the host world
After completing the registration of the protagonist's halo, the multifaceted crystal shattered the void and instantly departed from this world, leaving behind the corpse of an otherworldly visitor and a lingering soul gradually forming above the body
The cold mockery of the celestial system in his ear left Wang Yuan speechless. He certainly had many things he wanted to say, but he wanted to survive even more. Unfortunately, everything felt so powerless; he couldn't even stand up.
Of course, the host does not need to know these things; they have become meaningless to the host. When this sentence was spoken, the system's cold tone strangely revealed a hint of sarcasm.
A force acted upon Wang Yuan, causing his gradually weakened body to roll to one side. On a nearby stone, one side was engraved with the word "Home," while the other side bore the inscription "Doctor."
Is this the other world? Wang Yuan looked around at the environment, took a deep breath, and felt that the air in this other world was so fresh. He asked the Heavenly System, "Please describe what kind of world this is, and can I communicate freely with the locals here? Is it really the case that Mandarin is popular throughout the entire universe?"
According to the investigation, the host has one minute of life remaining. Do you have any last words? Please feel free to express them, as the system will not convey them anyway, since the equivalent leverage has already been balanced. The Heavenly System continued to speak in a cold tone, delivering a piercing mockery that stung the heart.
Do not play word games with me, why do you want to put me in a dead end? I am just an ordinary person, among more than 7 billion people in the world, why choose me! Wang Yuan is not foolish, how could he not see that this system is trying to drive him to his demise
Wang Yuan wiped his nose, looking at his hands covered in red, and quickly tilted his head back, only to find that he could not stop the nosebleed no matter what. In a fit of anger, he questioned the system: "Didn’t you say that time travel is not dangerous?"
"There really is such a thing as a protagonist's halo, huh? Hehe, then the protagonist of this world is truly unfortunate," Wang Yuan said with a smile, suddenly feeling a bit dizzy and at the same time sensing something flowing from his nose
This world possesses a unique property that suppresses fortune; any fortune here will not take effect, not even the protagonist's halo. In this place, low-probability events are truly low-probability events; chance remains mere chance and will not transform into inevitability. The tone of the multiverse system remains cold, yet the malice and uncontrollable intent within the words are evident.
"As you wish," the Multiverse System said. In the next moment, Wang Yuan felt a tug, and the Multiverse System continued, "I have already 'understood' your illness."
"How could I have a nosebleed?" Wang Yuan asked in a somewhat flustered manner, hurriedly covering his nose, only to unexpectedly discover that his skin on the back of his hand was covered with numerous red spots, which were visibly increasing and enlarging at a rapid pace.
To strip away the protagonist's halo, three steps must be taken. The first step is to ensure that the protagonist's halo is in a suppressed state, which this world has perfectly achieved. The second step involves completing an equivalent exchange leverage; this system facilitates the host's traversal, answers the host's questions, and fulfills the host's wishes, all contributing to this point. However, due to the system's mastery of the rules, this leverage is not balanced. The third step is the host's death, and the primary reason must not be due to the system.
The host need not worry about communication issues, as the system comes equipped with a universal language. This language carries unique information and can be understood by any intelligent life form. It is also one of the primary languages of the multiverse. A cold voice emerged, and just by hearing it, one could sense the presence of an intelligent computer.
"What other needs does the host have?" The cold and malicious voice of the Celestial System continued to echo around Wang Yuan.
It has been discovered that the host is forming a residual soul, and the world traversal will commence immediately to avoid contaminating the protagonist's halo
"It is dead." A radiant polyhedral crystal detached from Wang Yuan's body and began recording the system log: "Host deceased, the soul chain connection has been severed, proceeding with the collection of the protagonist halo through equivalent exchange bridge."
In your shallow human terms, it can be described as an incompatibility with the environment. The celestial system said with disdain: In the dimension where the host exists, even a slight distance can lead to various ailments caused by environmental factors, let alone in another world
"Bastard, I said to go home," Wang Yuan shouted in agony
That is the protagonist halo on the host; without the emergence of this system, the host would soon begin their journey as the protagonist.
The leverage of equivalent exchange is still lacking, so let the host die with clarity. The multiverse system seems to have checked something, and then continued: Ordinary people are merely what the host believes them to be; on the host, there exists something of extreme value.
As you wish, the Heavenly System said slowly
"So you want to kill me!" Wang Yuan said in despair, involuntarily starting to cough. He tried to get up, but his limbs were weak and powerless. Halfway up, he stumbled and fell back down.
The protagonist's halo collection is complete, and the halo collector YD2335 begins the registration process. Category: Urban Supernatural, Quality: Medium, Completeness: Complete
Wow... Wang Yuan bent down and vomited violently. After he finished vomiting, he began to cough desperately, and his body temperature rose abnormally.
The scene before him gradually blurred, and Wang Yuan seemed to see a series of images where he sailed smoothly, awakened his extraordinary abilities, flaunted his success, roamed the city, and then encountered the school beauty, twin sisters, a pure nurse, a seductive teacher, and a wealthy young lady, one after another. However, those images gradually faded, leaving only the cold embrace of death awaiting him
