Chapter 1: Death Simulator

The 12th year of the Tianqi era of the Great Qian

In the early stages of famine, wherever the starving people went, the bark of trees was stripped bare, the grass seeds were completely dug up, and wild beasts retreated.

Is the system not working?

In less than a month, the number of disaster victims has exceeded one million

In a remote mountain village in Jizhou, a baby named "Sumu" was born into this world

Rest: Instant death upon encountering fatal injury, reducing suffering

Moreover, is it still in a state of waiting to be reincarnated

The anticipated golden finger has indeed appeared

... ...

Apart from a desolate and dilapidated mud house, Sumu has nothing at all

The displaced masses, like an avalanche or a colossal wave, surge towards other regions

Wisdom: 4

Accompanied by the prompts of the simulator, ten gray talents appeared before Su Mu

The sound of machinery echoed once more

However, Sumu still underestimated the terror of fate

If not completed within the time limit, it will be randomly assigned or selected

The disaster victims who are barely surviving are all emaciated and have withered faces

It is too dark!

Ten talents, none of them serious

Host: Sumu

What on earth are these things

... ...

[Fate: 1]

Talents: Immortality, Feast, Rest

Su Mu really wants to ask, can this simulator be returned

However, before a single word could be spoken, there was an inexplicable stutter, producing a sound reminiscent of a machine malfunctioning

What is the use of a near-death experience

Is this the fate of 1 o'clock

[Joyful Mourning: 1 basic attribute point reward for death after 100 years]

Only by possessing sufficient strength can one defy fate and change one's destiny

However, as a modern youth who has experienced various forms of internet culture, Sumu quickly accepted the current situation

[Fate: ? ]

At just 8 years old, Sumu is among the earliest of them

The two sentences after the system recovery left Sumu in a daze

Good Fortune: Continuous misfortune before the age of 80, turning into good fortune after the age of 80

However, that amount of stored grain is simply insufficient

However, regardless of his thoughts, the first life after the crossing is about to begin

[Body: ? ]

This exposed him to the dangers and horrors of this world

After some consideration, Sumu decided to allocate more to both "Physical" and "Intellectual".

The solitary disaster victims, nine out of ten have become the prey of beasts.

[Fate: 1]

The quality issue is too significant, I want to file a complaint

In the 20th year of the Tianqi era, a drought occurred in Jizhou, leading to a great famine

Wisdom: ?

The host is detected to be in an extremely dangerous world

And Sumu is one of those struggling in this hell

So, are you saying that I traveled through time after my death

Immortal: The rate of decomposition of the corpse is slow

Then basically there is only one dead end left

At the graves of his parents, Su Mu let out a helpless sigh

Can this be called talent

Very soon, the number of people who are being starved to death is increasing rapidly

... ...

The first rebirth is about to begin

However, Sumu, being a second-generation individual, began his own journey of survival right after burying his father

Death is more painful, flesh is more delicious, dying young, and it is easier to attract ghosts

Why does he feel that something is off with his golden finger

With only three minutes left, Su Mu could not think much and could only allocate the attribute points first

He glanced around and found that these talents were quite peculiar and sinister

What is it? A death simulator?

At the same time, a virtual screen appeared in front of Sumu

Wisdom: 4

Sumu has died once, but does not wish to die again

Feast: The flesh is exceedingly delicious, leaving an unforgettable impression

Even wild dogs have begun to eat humans

He knows nothing about the world that is about to be reborn, nor does he know how to allocate resources in the best way.

Host: Sumu

Host: Sumu

Body: 5

... ...

Is it possible? Did I just cross over with a golden finger only to have it become useless?

Early mortality: The rate of death due to illness significantly increases before the age of three

Simulation begins

Please select three initial talents

[Paradise: Lifespan shortened to 30 years, can ascend to Paradise early]

respectively "Immortality", "Feast", and "Rest"

This is a common 5-year-old child, without relatives or friends, living in complete poverty

Please allocate the basic attribute points and select the initial talents within 3 minutes

He wants to change to a golden finger

As the three minutes were about to expire, the helpless Su Mu could only choose three talents that appeared relatively harmless

Death Simulator? To provide the host with a better death experience

Body: 5

What is this thing

The allocation of basic attribute points has been completed, and the corresponding instance has been generated

Three years later, his mother passed away

Hello, host. The reincarnation simulator is at your service

Even tigers and wolves do not dare to approach the starving disaster victims

This scene is indeed somewhat magical

Su Mu felt a sudden panic in his heart, while also feeling somewhat speechless

As the virtual panel illuminated and then faded away, Sumu's consciousness sank into a realm of darkness

and in order to bury his father, sold the only remaining piece of land in the family

Resentment: The pain at the time of death is magnified tenfold

This text appears to be a series of symbols or placeholders and does not contain any translatable content

Feast: The flesh is exceedingly delicious, leaving an unforgettable impression

As the saying goes, my fate is determined by me, not by heaven

Unallocated basic attribute points: 10

I have gained a deeper understanding of the horrors of famine

The Moon: The fate of the Great Yin, easily attracting ghosts, spirits, and evil entities

Embracing this idea, Sumu quickly allocated 10 basic attribute points

At the age of only five, Sumu became an orphan

Two years later, his father also passed away at the bedside

Heavenly Deficiency: Born with a random absence of a certain organ

They resemble lifeless corpses, dragging their half-dead bodies as they walk across this parched land

As a time traveler, Su Mu had not yet demonstrated any of his talents when he was swept away by the torrent of fate, becoming one of the disaster victims

Rest: Instant death upon encountering fatal injury, reducing suffering

Unallocated basic attribute points: 0

and decided to invest in a good opportunity

More than half of Jizhou has already fallen into hell

Sumu silently recited a phrase in his heart

Yet it is merely at a level where one does not starve to death, with suffering so abundant that it is hard to know where to begin.

Fortunately, after Su Mu made a few complaints, the system seemed to return to normal, and the mechanical voice sounded again

After making the selection, Su Mu's first life in another world has begun

Relying on his eloquence and charm, he roamed the village to "beg for alms," barely managing to eat from the tables of a hundred families

Immortal: The rate of decomposition of the corpse is slow

These three talents will at least not cause him too much trouble while he is alive.

Indeed, in the next moment, a mechanized voice echoed in his mind

By this time, the beast no longer feared the disaster victims

Some wealthy households and landlords who had stockpiled grain were also completely robbed

Sizzle ~ ~ sizzle sizzle ~ ~ ~

Sumu rubbed his temples, feeling quite a headache

Looking at his own transparent soul, and then glancing around at the vast, white space, Su Mu couldn't help but feel a bit dazed

In order to better serve you, the system has automatically switched to the death simulator, which allows you to have a better death experience
