1 Ch 1: The system descends!
"Come back from the library early after reading the book for a while, remember to call your father back, after all, it was hard for the whole family to have a holiday today, and everyone must be here for lunch on time at noon."
"No problem, Mom."
Receiving the schoolbag, Ryan waved to the blond middle-aged woman standing at the door and then walked along the sidewalk to the nearby library.
The sky is blue with a few white clouds passing by. Because it is a holiday, many neighbors take advantage of the good weather to trim the lawn or sit in the sun in front of their homes. Ryan greeted the neighbors as he walked.
Seeing all this in front of him, Ryan sighed silently in his heart. It has been a full ten years.
After arriving at the library and greeting Mr. Manager, Ryan soon saw his foster father Mr. Lambert Liang, who was half-Chinese, in the reading room on the second floor of the library, who was writing on the table. A middle-aged man, a writer who has written several popular novels that are best-selling books in the region.
Ryan was adopted, and his foster parents told him this fact when he was in elementary school. Of course, it was obvious. After all, a white-faced couple can't give birth to a pure Asian child anyway.
For Ryan, after being inexplicably smashed by a meteor in his previous life, he found that he had shrunk into a one-year-old baby and came to a foreign country. It is a great fortune to meet a pair of foster parents who treat him as their own and to have the same surname as in the previous life. Ten years of nurturing is enough to make Ryan recognize them as his parents in his heart.
After greeting his foster father and delivering the instructions given by the foster mother, Ryan sat in an empty seat to act like he is reading his middle school textbooks. After all, with the soul of an adult, Ryan has always been among the best in elementary school based on the learning foundation of college students in his previous life (this was nothing to be proud of).
According to normal development, he should finish middle school and high school in a good private school, and then be admitted to one of the top ten universities in the UK.
These are the routes that Ryan planned for himself a week after he was adopted and after he figured out all the conditions.
Of course, after going to middle school, he can slowly use the information he has about the future to make money. If all goes well, he can basically live a good life of financial freedom before the age of thirty that he used to envy in his previous life after graduating from college.
Just as Ryan was working hard to revise the school textbooks in the library and plotting for the future, suddenly there was a ding-dong sound in his mind.
The system has been activated——
Myriad Realms General Store opening ——
Ding Dong——
The system has started for the first time, and the realm channel has been opened smoothly——
Ding Dong——
The novice task is generated, please receive——
what's going on? ??
Ryan's froze to a standstill immediately. He originally thought that this was just a force rebirth in years before in the same world, since the changes in the world over the past ten years have also developed as such as he had in his memory. Why did a system pop up suddenly?
As an ordinary college graduated white-collar worker in his previous life, not a weeb, he has read a lot of novels. Naturally, he knows there is a common protagonist's golden finger. But that was just crazy authors making crazy and fun novels. After rebirth, to have a complete family and a glorious future within reach, Ryan already felt very lucky, so he didn't think that this kind of golden finger would fall on him.
but now...
Goldfinger really came.
Am I the protagonist with a legendary fate? Ryan wondered silently.
After confirming that a system really popped in his mind and he wasn't hallucinating, Ryan, who had an adult soul, quickly calmed down and began to check everything in the system.
The body of this system is the last remaining crystallization of a crystal wall system. As a result, when moving the crystal wall system, hit the Ryan in his previous life (that is, the meteor), it then took him to this world and placed him in the current Ryan's body, After the series of influences by the soul and this world, it evolved to become this kind of system.
The system has been resting all this time because it consumes too much energy to take people from one dimension to another. Until today, ten years later, the system has absorbed enough energy to finally activate itself.
It's a pity that this system is not as smart as the systems he read about in the previous life novels, let alone talking, the system only has a personal attribute panel and a taskbar for the time being, in addition to displaying its origin.
I have to admit that the system has a modernist minimalist style, and all content can be clearly seen at a glance.
But, the mission...
Is this really something an 11-year-old kid can handle?
Written on the taskbar is:
The general store is open for business.
Since it is a store-type system, the first task is naturally to complete a transaction.
Prompt-Myriad Realms General Store is open for business, of course, you have to trade with various worlds, so please be prepared to travel. The free world provided for novices mission is Plants vs. Zombies world.
Reward-Myriad Realms General Store will officially be opened.
It seems to be a very common type of mission according to his old world's novels. But the question is, this body of Ryan is only 11 years old, can he really complete the task of going to other world to trade? The world of Plants vs. Zombies is not a peaceful one.
However, since this is his cheat, his golden finger, turning a blind eye to it is impossible for him. Fortunately, this system gave him 24 hours of preparation time. Ryan decided to make some preparations and wait until his parents fall asleep to do the task at night.
Lest he disappears suddenly and scares them.
After this, Ryan was not in the mood to read the school textbooks anymore, so he found a few books on survival in the wild and began to browse through them. Although this kind of last-minute info-dump might be useless, it's better than nothing, right?
When it was about noon, Lambert called Ryan to go home together.
On the walk home, Lambert asked: "Why did you suddenly read such books as survival in the wild today?"
"I felt a little tired from studying school textbooks, so to change my mind I read something different. Wilderness survival is quite interesting." Ryan replied, he didn't want his foster father to become worried about him.
"Ah, that's great. Only studying in life is not a good thing. I happen to have a set of camping equipment. Tomorrow's your birthday, I will find it for you as a birthday gift. Of course, I also prepared something else too." At this moment, the two people had already walked to the door of the house, and Lambert said as he opened the door.
"Dad when did you buy those? and why didn't we go on a family camp before?"
"Well, that's because..."
"That's because your father likes to stay at home. He vowed before that he would camp and he bought everything. But when I talk about it, he always says that he has something to do. We never went camping. He just bought everything suddenly and now It's covered in dust in the backyard storage room." The foster mother, Sally, came out of the kitchen with a tray. She spoke as the two people entered the home while setting the plate.
"Now, go wash your hands, the meal will be ready soon."
After eating a hearty lunch, Ryan and his foster father went to the backyard storage room to find the camping equipment and organize the storage room in goodwill.
(A few minutes ago
"Today is a holiday, you two should also do some housework."
"No problem, my dear wife."
"No problem, mother.)
Ryan also took advantage of the spare time in the afternoon to pick out the possible usable things from the entire set of equipment and put it in his schoolbag.
In the evening, after his parents fell asleep, Ryan secretly went downstairs to the kitchen and packed a few boxes of frozen tacos and hot sauce from the refrigerator and packed them in his school bag. Then he returned to the bedroom and started the task.
A blue light flashed, and Ryan disappeared from his bedroom.
The room of his foster parents was on the other side of the corridor, they were in a deep sleep and naturally did not notice that their son had disappeared. The entire community was asleep by now, the moonlight filled the sky.
An owl dropped a parchment letter into the mailbox of Ryan's house.
