was composed of low, rudimentary tenement buildings and numerous dilapidated structures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, even within the slums, there were varying degrees of quality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The best location was undoubtedly the outskirts of the neighborhood, where there was ample sunlight and newly built improvement housing by the authorities to enhance the city’s appearance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both the living environment and condition were more comfortable than elsewhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only the workers employed in Qiuye City could afford it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the deeper one ventured, the older and more decrepit the buildings became, and the environment turned increasingly dirty and chaotic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, most of the sunlight was blocked by the tall buildings on the outskirts, making the lighting appear very dim.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the neighborhood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The buildings stood very close to one another, with only a narrow, dark passageway separating two adjacent buildings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If someone’s arm were a little longer, they could reach out and touch the window on the opposite side, hence, these buildings were also called handshake buildings by many.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The interconnected maze of alleys and passages linked countless handshake buildings together, forming this chaotic and rundown neighborhood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many children aged three to four were running and playing in the passageways, and if they found an old soccer ball, it would elicit bursts of innocent and joyous laughter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some obese middle-aged women, on the other hand, squatted at doorsteps picking vegetables, casually pouring household sewage into roadside ditches.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garbage piled up, sewage overflowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damp and cold, never seeing sunlight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was where Lu Yuan’s family lived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Originally, both Lu Mountain and his wife worked in some mechanical factory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though the salary was not much, the job was stable enough to afford living on the outskirts of Qiuye City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, after Lu Yuan was born, merely to buy the spirit liquid required to sustain his life, Lu Mountain emptied all their savings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, they were left heavily in debt and had to move their entire family to this place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Lu Yuan and his family walked through the one dark and damp passage after another, they finally arrived at a rundown building long overdue for repairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Yuan entered the building, took a few steps to the right, and the first apartment was their home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ground floor was damp and dark without any light, so the rent was the cheapest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A one-bedroom apartment with 30 square meters only cost four hundred star coins.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, every night while sleeping, they could clearly hear the footsteps of all the residents going upstairs and downstairs, coming in and out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Mountain took out a key to open the door and pressed the light switch on the wall, letting a soft light illuminate the dark room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The layout of the room was suddenly all visible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Yuan took a look around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This house was very simple, with just a few pieces of second-hand furniture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The originally narrow and cramped living room was split in half by a wooden board.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The outer area was the dining space, and a sofa was placed inside where Lu Mountain and his wife slept.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only room was Lu Yuan’s bedroom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If not for me, my parents wouldn’t be living so hard...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Yuan silently looked at it all, feeling rather uncomfortable inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he had experienced many lifetimes of reincarnation, his Dao heart had become extremely resilient, yet he disliked owing others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially the kind of unconditional nurturing and care from his parents, which made his feelings extremely complicated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I must become a Martial Artist or a Mecha Master as soon as possible; only then can I change our fate and allow my parents to live a better life.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Yuan murmured to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for becoming a cultivator, it was temporarily not within his consideration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without sufficient resources.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even with the cultivation technique and experience from his previous life, it would be difficult to tread this path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he forced himself onto the path of cultivation, it would not only severely overdraw his body’s potential but could even bring a fatal disaster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fortunately, Hulao Star is far from the Central Star Realm, beyond the Star Alliance’s sphere of influence, where governance is backward and chaotic.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Otherwise, with my top-grade spirit root, I fear I would have been killed in the cradle upon birth.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Yuan said helplessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The workgroup is rushing orders these days, so I’ll head back to work.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Mountain took a few gulps of cold boiled water and hurriedly left the house.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah Yuan, you go rest first, mom has half a day off today, I’ll make your favorite braised pork tonight.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mother Lu, noticing Lu Yuan’s silence along the way, thought he hadn’t recovered from the heavy blow of dropping out of school, immediately comforted him in a soft voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mom, don’t worry, I’m fine, and you don’t tire yourself out too much.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Yuan replied, then returned to his bedroom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He locked the door, ensuring he wouldn’t be disturbed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He focused his mind and called up a virtual panel only he could see.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Talent: Reverse Cause and Effect]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Available Future Outcomes Prepayment: 1\u002F1]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Prepaid Outcomes: 0]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Prepayable Outcomes: Head Injury Recovery, Cooking

head, it’ll heal in a couple of days.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As for becoming a Martial Artist, it requires some initial investment, which, for penniless me, seems quite far off.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What’s urgent now is to quickly master mecha knowledge; even becoming a mecha maintenance apprentice will provide a stable income.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the prepayable outcomes column, Lu Yuan pondered for a moment before decisively choosing the Mecha Mastery option.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Yuan’s expression turned dazed, as countless knowledge and information about mechas suddenly surged in his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This knowledge felt instinctual, as if it had always been part of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once it appeared, it was imprinted deeply in his mind, never to be forgotten.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon after.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After absorbing all the information, Lu Yuan slowly opened his eyes and exhaled a turbid breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although outwardly, he seemed unchanged from before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But when he turned and looked at a miniature mecha model on the desk, his mind involuntarily conjured the internal structure and operating principles of the model.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without needing to think much, he could easily identify the defects and flaws in the mecha model and knew how to make it more perfect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It could be said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his eyes now, even a true mecha was nothing more than a construct of thousands upon thousands of components.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"With my current mastery of mecha knowledge, I can easily overshadow those mecha maintenance masters with decades of experience and secure a job with a monthly salary in the tens of thousands.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If I have enough materials, I might even be able to build a Zero-Type Mecha by myself.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Yuan thought to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like the Martial Artist realms, mechas also have level classifications.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to combat strength, mechas are divided into zero form and tier one to tier nine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of these, the zero form is the weakest, belonging to the basic mecha class.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the tier nine mecha, it can rival gods, possessing destructive forces capable of shaking the heavens and the earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, even the most basic zero-type mecha can easily split mountains and face a hundred opponents alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as he was imagining the future, suddenly his vision darkened, and sharp stabbing pain coursed through his entire body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not good, I need to take an energy potion.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Yuan’s forehead veins bulged, and he gritted his teeth tightly. He forced himself to his feet, found a potion from the drawer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This potion was akin to an oral liquid, flowing with a certain green liquid inside a glass bottle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just seeing this green potion ignited an uncontrollable craving in every cell of his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like a long-barren desert in dire need of rain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without further thought, Lu Yuan immediately opened the bottle cap and poured all the green liquid into his mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the entire liquid was absorbed, the unbearable hunger within Lu Yuan’s body slightly diminished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Even though I possess a top-grade spirit root, I didn’t expect to live in such poverty.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Yuan showed a self-mocking bitter smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This spirit liquid was a basic energy potion developed by the Star Alliance, containing a trace of Spirit Grass Essence, which could boost a Martial Artist’s cultivation speed or flesh body recovery ability.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But its price was extremely high, with each bottle costing twenty thousand star coins.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Spiritual energy is like water, cultivators like fish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On this spiritually scarce Hulao Star.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Yuan had to rely on consuming basic energy potions to nourish his spirit root just to barely maintain normal life signs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, he would dry up like fish out of water and die of thirst!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have to take one basic energy potion every month, which means twenty-four thousand star coins a year.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But even with my parents working overtime every day, their combined annual salary is only around ten thousand.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"To cover the gap to buy energy potions, our family is already in debt by over a million!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Yuan clenched his fists, feeling quite distressed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In shallow waters, no True Dragon can thrive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a world lacking spiritual energy, a top-grade spirit root is a curse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s like throwing a baby shark into a drying puddle; even if it survives, its body would become severely deformed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And only by quickly becoming a Mecha Master and earning sufficient cultivation resources can he completely change his fate!\u003C\u002Fp>",1601,"2026-05-30T16:07:04.605Z","2026-06-01T04:31:39.774Z",1,"novelbin.me","89d0593a3cc8f4a29dad16140b59bba742beba33fe27a8e67f4e00885bdca92e","let-you-simulate-life-but-you-change-fate-every--chapter-720","let-you-simulate-life-but-you-change-fate-every--chapter-718",1186,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Flet-you-simulate-life-but-you-change-fate-every--cover.jpg"]
