Chapter 1: In the Super God World, Brain Development **
In a rented room, Jiang Hao woke up from bed.
As soon as he woke, he felt a flood of new memories filling his mind.
"This is...?"
Once the memories settled, Jiang Hao understood what had happened to him.
He had transmigrated, landing in the body of another version of himself in a parallel universe.
He was still named Jiang Hao, and his parents were the same ones he knew, but his childhood experiences were completely different.
Moreover, many place names in this world did not match those in his original world.
For instance, the country he now lived in was called Huaxia, not XX.
The city he was currently in was named Juxia City.
His hometown had become a place called Tianhe City.
In this world, he had graduated from university a year ago; half a month ago, dissatisfied with his boss's exploitation, his predecessor had resigned.
He was now unemployed.
Juxia City was a bustling metropolis, and the cost of living there was not low.
Therefore, only half a month after resigning, the predecessor had started looking for a job a day ago to survive.
However, he had not yet found a suitable position.
Then, as usual, the predecessor went to sleep, and upon waking again, he was Jiang Hao from another world.
"Juxia City, Tianhe City, North Star, the Juxia-class battleship launched just two years ago—could I have arrived in the Super God world?" Though his tone was uncertain, Jiang Hao was basically certain he had indeed entered the Super God world.
This was because, in his predecessor's memories, he had seen a familiar figure.
Qi Lin, the super soldier of the future Xiongbing Xiongbing Lian and the sniper of Shenhe.
In this world, he and Qi Lin were middle school and high school classmates, though they did not attend the same university.
After the college entrance exam, the predecessor's scores were average, and he attended a second-tier university, while Qi Lin, with excellent grades, was admitted to a police academy.
Recently, someone in the high school class group chat had mentioned Qi Lin, saying she was now a police officer at the Juxia City Public Security Bureau, eating the state's rice.
Qi Lin was beautiful, having been pretty since middle school.
During high school, many people pursued her, and Jiang Hao of this world was one of them.
But none succeeded.
It was not that Qi Lin was hard to pursue, but rather her parents forbade her from dating before university.
So she rejected everyone.
After entering university, people gradually realized the gap in their statuses.
Those still pursuing Qi Lin became very few.
Because most people knew their place.
Precisely because of Jiang Hao's memories about Qi Lin in this world, he was basically certain he had arrived in the Super God world.
Thinking of the future invasion by the Taotie and the Demons, where nearly one-third of the human population would die, and Earth would plunge into great chaos.
Jiang Hao immediately frowned; how could an ordinary person like himself survive the coming war and disasters?
And what could he use to protect his parents and relatives?
[Ding, Transmigrator locked, Jiang Hao]
[Congratulations, you have received the World's Gift: your brain development has reached **
%. In the realm of knowledge, you are the omnipotent God; no knowledge can stump you. On the path of scientific research, you will never encounter a bottleneck. Whatever you deem achievable, knowledge will help you realize it. Remember, the end of science is theology; all impossibilities become possible before you.]
[Ding, congratulations on receiving the World Gate. Opening the World Gate will allow you to travel to other universes and witness the splendor of the myriad heavens. Current cooldown: 3 days. Once the cooldown completes, you may open the World Gate and travel to other worlds.]
"The cheat code has arrived?" Jiang Hao's face lit up with joy.
He had always said, as a transmigrator, how could he not have a system?
The moment this thought formed, the next second, he felt his brain struck as if by a heavy hammer.
Faintness and dizziness surged over him.
Jiang Hao crashed back onto the bed with a thud.
An unknown amount of time passed.
Jiang Hao woke up.
The moment he opened his eyes, the world around him seemed different.
It was clearer, and also seemed more fantastical.
At the same time, Jiang Hao found his mind exceptionally clear.
Many things he had forgotten before suddenly came back to him, as if he could play movies in his mind and even pause them.
Any detail could be recalled with perfect clarity.
His thoughts also moved very quickly.
Especially, Jiang Hao discovered he could hold several ideas simultaneously.
No, or rather, if he wished, his mind could hold dozens of different ideas at once.
Multi-tasking, even multi-dozen-tasking.
Jiang Hao knew this was the effect of his brain development reaching **
%.
Of course, because the knowledge accumulated by his predecessor and himself was not yet sufficient.
He was, in fact, still a 'normal person'.
He needed knowledge.
He was now like a master architect whose architectural skill was flawless.
But without materials, he could not conjure a beautiful, perfect building.
And for Jiang Hao, knowledge was the material.
To obtain things, he still needed 'materials' to lay the foundation.
Jiang Hao did not know how long he had been unconscious.
However, when he checked that the World Gate's cooldown had two days and seventeen hours remaining, he immediately knew he had been unconscious for seven hours.
It was now five in the afternoon; Jiang Hao had not eaten for a day.
His stomach's protest made Jiang Hao rise from the bed.
How to face the invasion of the Taotie and the demons was not something to worry about just yet.
The most important thing for now was to eat first.
The previous owner was not someone who liked to cook.
But he still bought groceries and cooked for himself; there was no other reason, just no money to order takeout.
So Jiang Hao could only do it himself.
However, Jiang Hao's cooking skills could only be described as average.
The food he made was sometimes inedible even to himself.
But when Jiang Hao truly started cooking and stir-frying, he immediately noticed a difference.
Based on the existing seasonings, which ones to add, how much, how much to stir-fry, when to take it out of the wok, and when to flip the vegetables with the spatula.
He seemed to have clear judgments on all of it.
