Reincarnation Paradise (Chat GPT translation)

Nighttime in a bustling yet restless second-tier city.

The streets are teeming with traffic, the night life begins, drawing many young people out of their stuffy rooms to spend their time freely.

Su Xiao crouched on the roof of a two-story villa, feeling a cool breeze pass by.

Dressed in black, wearing a large black hood, he hid his figure in the darkness of the rooftop.

This outfit would make anyone feel stuffy even at night during the hot summer.

But compared to his unfortunate experiences, this was nothing. He had already been waiting here for two hours.

Given his current age, Su Xiao should have been enjoying a wonderful time in college, but three years ago, driven by hatred, he abandoned his studies and started learning other skills.

Human anatomy, combat, quick lock picking, and other knowledge.

The long wait began...

Two hours later, a black luxury car slowly drove into the villa courtyard. The muffled engine sound ceased, the car door opened, and a middle-aged man with a hint of drunkenness stepped out of the car.

The middle-aged man's steps were obviously unsteady due to excessive drinking.

On the rooftop, Su Xiao picked up a long knife beside him. The blade was pitch black, hard to notice in the night.

Leaping from the six-meter-high roof, Su Xiao's agile arms grabbed the protruding corner of the villa, slowing his descent.

Landing smoothly, Su Xiao stood right in front of his enemy.

Without any words, the long knife in Su Xiao's hand sliced through the air, making a whimpering sound before slashing his enemy's throat.

Blood spurted out, though Su Xiao tried to avoid it, his sleeve and hand were still stained with blood.

The drunken enemy, not understanding what had happened, fell backward to the ground.

Such an injury was fatal, so Su Xiao immediately ran towards a less populated area.

Out of the corner of his eye, Su Xiao saw a security guard in uniform.

Although he was committing murder, it didn't matter if he was seen on the spot as his appearance was well hidden.

But in the next moment, Su Xiao felt a chill run down his spine. The security guard actually pulled out a gun from his waist, a dark pistol with a silencer attached.

How could a security guard have a gun? Su Xiao had no time to think carefully.

Behind him was a villa at least ten meters wide, and the security guard was about twenty meters away. If he chose to run, his back would be completely exposed to the enemy, making him a living target.

When faced with danger, Su Xiao's first reaction was to eliminate the source of danger, not to run away.

He charged forward in an S-shaped pattern, trying to avoid getting shot.

"Thud, thud, thud..."

The silenced pistol only made weak sounds.

Su Xiao had only run about five meters when he felt a numbness in his leg, followed by the same sensation in his chest.

Su Xiao knew he had been shot. Although he was a avenger, he had never been shot before.

The feeling of powerlessness spread through his body. Su Xiao didn't feel fear, only unwillingness.

He hadn't completed his revenge and was already falling, killed by an unknown enemy, which was such a pathetic way to die.

Using the last of his strength, Su Xiao threw the long knife in his hand.

This throw was left to fate, but it seemed fate acknowledged Su Xiao's unwillingness and his unfair experiences. The knife spun rapidly in the air before miraculously piercing the chest of the armed security guard.

Falling to the ground, Su Xiao smiled.

He had coated the knife with neurotoxin, a mixed type, ensuring the guard's death.

As his consciousness faded, Su Xiao felt a heavy blow to his head, then everything went black.

In his last moments of awareness, Su Xiao vaguely heard.

"Hunter, 'Reincarnation Paradise' is now open for you."

--------------

[Body transfer in progress...]

[10%, 50%, 100%, transfer complete, detecting severe damage to hunter's body, beginning repairs...]

[Hunter's consciousness has not awakened, repair commands postponed, maintaining minimal survival state for ten minutes...]

[Beep... Hunter has growth-type talent, extending survival time by two hours.]

In the darkness, several lines of faint blue text floated in the air, emitting a soft glow.

Below the blue text, Su Xiao lay covered in blood, suspended in the void.

His fingers twitched, and Su Xiao slowly woke up.

Upon waking, Su Xiao was initially dazed, but he quickly tried to stand up, remembering the dark muzzle of the gun.

Pain surged through him, almost causing him to faint again.

Struggling to sit up, Su Xiao scanned his surroundings. Except for a few lines of glowing blue text, it was pitch black.

[Hunter, welcome to 'Reincarnation Paradise']

A line of text appeared in front of Su Xiao, but he ignored it, focusing on checking his injuries.

His leg was pierced, the flesh around the wound turned outwards, and his fingers could easily probe inside.

This bloody scene only made Su Xiao frown slightly, showing no other reactions.

He had experienced scenes ten times more brutal, so this didn't faze him.

The injuries on his chest were even more severe, but neither his leg nor chest wounds were bleeding anymore.

"I'm not dead?"

Placing his hand on his chest, Su Xiao felt his heart beating strongly.

[Hunter, you are not dead. Do you wish to join 'Reincarnation Paradise'? Everything you want is here.]

Su Xiao had long noticed the suspicious text, but out of caution for the unknown, he had ignored it.

The current situation was strange; he had suffered fatal injuries but miraculously survived, and a line of blood-red numbers was counting down in front of him.

[1:35:10][1:35:9]...

An hour and thirty-five minutes and nine seconds. If Su Xiao guessed correctly, that was the meaning of the numbers, which continued to count down.

The red numbers gave Su Xiao a foreboding feeling, as if he would lose his life when they hit zero.

[Hunter, please communicate with 'Paradise' and sign the contract, or you will die in '1 hour 35 minutes'.]

As expected, the numbers represented his remaining survival time. Su Xiao had suspected as much; his injuries were too severe for him to have survived.

"Where's my knife?"

Su Xiao didn't care about the "contract" or "Paradise" but asked for his knife.

That knife was the only keepsake left by his parents, supposedly a military officer's knife captured by his great-grandfather and passed down to him.

[Most real-world items cannot be brought into 'Paradise'. Please sign the contract promptly.]

Su Xiao fell silent, the blue text flickering, perhaps never having encountered a "Hunter" like him.

"A contract? Tell me, what do I need to give, and what can I get?"

The dwindling survival time left Su Xiao with little time to hesitate, and he sensed that he might be experiencing some "supernatural" event, causing his heart to race.

Su Xiao desperately needed power to avenge himself, and though supernatural events came with great risks, they also held the potential for extraordinary power.

[By signing the contract, you will travel through various 'derivative worlds' to complete tasks assigned by 'Reincarnation Paradise', earning 'World Source'. Your rewards will be determined by the amount of 'World Source' you collect.]

['Reincarnation Paradise' can do anything.]

...

A large amount of text appeared, and Su Xiao read it carefully.

"Can anything bring the dead back to life?"

All the blue text suddenly stopped in mid-air, then vanished.

[Given your status as a Hunter, no.]
