Chapter 343: Three Lives, Pangu's Possession!
Ah?!
A single "No reward" made Zhao Si's eyes widen:
What the hell?!
Damn it, the first lifetime had no reward, which was understandable—after all, Lin Liu truly did nothing in his first lifetime, just battling wits and courage with wild monsters, so no reward was normal.
But why does this second lifetime have no reward?!
"Give me an explanation!"
Zhao Si snapped angrily: "Lin Liu has accomplished so many great deeds in this lifetime, his impact on the world is simply immeasurable... why is there no reward?"
The rank of the reward is secondary, after all Zhao Si hardly lacks high‑grade prizes.
But the reward itself is also a form of recognition and evaluation of the protagonist's life.
No reward means the game system simply does not acknowledge Lin Liu's efforts in this lifetime!
This is a denial of Lin Liu's character and dignity; Zhao Si has good reason to demand an explanation for him!
【Players, think carefully: what exactly is the standard for evaluating the protagonist's achievements?】
This question needs no thought; Zhao Si blurted out:
"Obviously it's the extent of his impact on the world."
【Then what has Lin Liu changed in this lifetime?】
Zhao Si raised his eyebrows: "Many things—seizing power of the Shun Dynasty, unifying the Four Great Continents, saving all the people under heaven, overthrowing the lazy Heavenly Court..."
【Players, are you sure?】
"Then of course..."
Zhao Si was about to say "of course" instinctively, but then he suddenly realized and reopened the historical records to look.
Upon seeing that, he was stunned!
It seems, more or less... Lin Liu really hasn't changed anything...
In the historical records, it clearly states that the monkey revived after seven days and even restarted the timeline!
Thus the timeline rolled back several hundred years, using the moment the dream‑protagonist monkey was born as the baseline; everything in the world was reset, meaning Lin Liu essentially made no change to the world at all...
【Players, note: the simulation settlement is based on the final world situation; no matter how many earth‑shattering feats Lin Liu accomplished, if the monkey restarts, it's as if he achieved nothing—everything is reset.】
"........"
After hearing the system's explanation, whether Zhao Si accepts it or not, he can only accept it now...
"Fine!"
Helpless, Zhao Si nodded, acknowledging the matter, but the more he thought about it, the more frustrated he became, unable to hold back: "Damn it... continue the simulation!"
He just wouldn't believe it—could this simulation really have no solution? 【Whether to start the next round of simulation?】
"Yes!"
【Ding! This round of simulation has been fully completed, now returning to the initial node...】
【Since you have obtained sufficient information in the previous simulation, this round will have more option nodes and freedom than before, and the plot will accordingly shift.】
【......】
【...... At some point, accompanied by a wail, you were born into a fisherman's family on the shore of the South Sea...】
【One day when you were three, while napping at home, a humanoid blood clot suddenly appeared in your palm, and at the same time, memories like smoke surged into your mind... You recalled your past lives and couldn't help feeling bewildered about your former fate.】
【Yes, bewildered.】
【"I can't do anything..."】
【Password correct, username wrong...】
【Grasping the Blood God Son, the three‑year‑old you showed a sorrow unbefitting your age.】
【In your past life, you did everything you could, but the cruel reality smashed all your lifelong efforts to pieces!】
【Originally, dreams were dreams and reality was reality, but you, this world‑shaking protagonist, hit a bug, forcibly anchoring the dream as reality, and consequently reality had to be abandoned......】
【You inexplicably recalled the lament once uttered by the Heavenly Emperor and the Bodhi Old Ancestor: "Why were you born here?"】
【To be honest, you truly feel guilty and sorry.】
【Originally everything was fine, but you created the biggest problem; to the Primordial Wasteland, your protagonist identity has shifted from "savior" to "disaster"!】
【You feel so guilty that you are even willing to sacrifice yourself to let the Eternal Primordial Wasteland achieve perfection!】
【But it's useless; you're not Lao Jiao, and here there's no need to create the Heavenly Dao—your sacrifice has no positive meaning and would only bring about the end of the world.】
【So you not only cannot die, you must instead live well; but the Eternal Primordial Wasteland is a hurdle you cannot avoid: if you don't die, you cannot reach the Eternal Primordial Wasteland; if you die, the Primordial Wasteland is doomed......】
【Nonsense bug! Dead horse game!】
【You keep cursing in your heart the abstract existence that arranged your birth here......】
【After cursing, the helpless you looked again at the Blood God Son in your hand: this equipment is powerful, but it is utterly useless against the apocalyptic dilemma you currently face.】
【After putting away the Blood God Son, you resolutely decided: you must still seek an opening, you must still request aid; facing a bug‑level catastrophe, you, alone and helpless, can only hope that "another self" will once again wield mysterious power... Please give some help, dear!】
【Ding! The helpless you once again applied for aid to "another self"... Please grant him a primordial‑grade gift that can help him defy heaven and change fate!】
Great! Finally another request for aid! Zhao Si's spirits lifted: "I'm not afraid of not having it; I'm afraid you won't want it!"
"As for the primordial‑grade gift that could help you defy heaven and change fate..."
Zhao Si pursed his lips:
I currently have only two primordial‑grade gifts in hand: the Primordial Wasteland Power and Pangu's Possession... all that's left is to recite an ID number!
"If we must say which thing could be useful to him, then it can only be Pangu's Possession!"
Thinking this, Zhao Si picked up Pangu's Possession:
It is a small square sand‑plate emitting a faint red glow, with a sun and seventy‑two heavenly stars floating above it, representing the three primordial‑grade gifts that compose this treasure.
【From Xue Xuan's Pangu Existence】: Primordial-grade; formed when the Chapter Three protagonist Xue Xuan, during the destruction of the Primordial Era, unintentionally used the three primordial-grade gifts—"Primordial Fragments", "Golden Crow True Fire", and "Zhou Tian Stars"—to trigger the "Primordial Existence", thereby causing Pangu's true form to reassemble.
Because it serves as the core of Pangu's reassembly, it thus obtained a great amount of tempering of 'Being', the three treasures combined into one treasure, and also obtained a wonderful sublimation.
Holding this treasure, one can thereby obtain a certain 'Pangu Breaks Law Divine Power' empowerment, breaking all techniques, treasures, magical power, illusions, inner demons, Chaos... one force can break myriad laws!】
"I told you, something this awesome is definitely useful; maybe it's the key breakthrough point of this chapter..."
Looking at this currently most awesome gift in hand, Zhao Si slowly placed it on the phone screen.
In the next instant, a red light flashed, and the small sand tray had already disappeared!
【Ding! Assistance succeeded!】
……
"Assistance assistance assistance..."
A three-year-old fisherman's child sat on their small bed, murmuring words, continuously praying for that 'other self' to grant them assistance.
It's not that they want to beg; mainly they truly have no other way, praying for mechanical descent of gods is currently the only hope.
As for whether that exalted being can actually grant them a useful treasure... it should be possible, after all they are an existence transcendent of the material world.
Moreover, even if they can't, we now have no choice but to treat a dead horse as if it were alive...
Just as their thoughts were tangled, a red small sand tray that appeared out of thin air slowly fell before them.
"Really?!"
Lin Liu was overjoyed!
Although I don't really understand how this small sand tray will help me debug, but based on the previous assistance experience with Blood God Son, as long as they truly send down the thing, it will definitely meet my requirements.
In short:
Great, no need for more words!
"Let me see how this thing is actually used..."
With excitement and curiosity, Lin Liu first flipped through its usage instructions, then according to the manual, cautiously grasped it...
……
"East Sea Pearl! Top-quality East Sea Pearl! Pearl produced by the East Sea Clam Maiden, can nourish the primordial spirit!"
"Extreme North Mystic Ice! Top-quality Extreme North Mystic Ice! Collected personally by our clan's Mystic Immortal Elder Ancestor on the extreme cold ice plains of the Northern Wasteland, two pieces of money per jin! Plenty available! Sold until gone!"
"Pills! Various pills! Refined using the alchemy technique passed down to humanity by the Golden Heaven Emperor in their early years; not only are they good quality and cheap, they also have collectible value... What? What to do if they get moldy? Nonsense! Mold is also a great tonic!"
""
The fisherman's child stood dazedly on this market, seeing only "people" coming and going, extremely prosperous.
"People"! Lin Liu also doesn't know if they count as people, because these "people" each have some non-human features to some degree.
Some have ox horns, some have horse tails, some are covered in long hair, some simply wear a fish head, a full-blown cosplay scene...
And most importantly, it's still oneself.
Just now I was clearly still on the bed researching the newly obtained assistance treasure, how did I end up here in the blink of an eye?!
Lin Liu stared, looking at their empty palms; although they had nothing in their hand, they could feel that the red small sand tray called 'Pangu's Being' was inside it.
Obviously, this is what it did.
"Where the hell did you bring me? Is this still the Great Shun?!"
Lin Liu looked left and right with a bewildered face, feeling that something major had happened to them...
And soon, this dazed human child who suddenly appeared in the market attracted the astonished exclamations of the "people":
"Huh? Whose child is this?"
"Human race? No way, I've seen humans, humans aren't like this..."
"City guards! City guards! Come register, a child is lost!"
""
Lin Liu stood up silently and then took off running! Although they didn't know what happened, they obviously needed to flee!
