"Roar!"

Haystack Village was a quiet and peaceful small village. It was located at Baron White Deer's border in the western region of the Wind Wolf Kingdom. It was a day's journey away from the nearest town. The villagers lived and worked in peace under the guidance of the village chief.

The Harvest Festival was a traditional festival in the Wind Wolf Kingdom. It was a festival to celebrate the autumn harvest. On this day, the people of the Wind Wolf Kingdom would hold a bonfire party in the evening. There would be enough barbecue, bread, and ale for everyone. People would celebrate their hard work for the entire year and party to their heart's content on the night of the Harvest Festival—it was very lively.

However, the Harvest Festival party in Haystack Village this year was different.

… 

It was the Year 1273 of the Wind Wolf calendar.

Under the illumination of the pristine white full moon, the ground seemed to be covered with a layer of white frost. Tonight, it was the annual Harvest Festival party again.

"Roar!"

At this time, the open space where Haystack Village held the annual Harvest Festival party was in a mess. There were ripe, unripe, half-cooked roasted meat and colorful wild fruits. There was also white bread that the villagers were usually reluctant to eat scattered among pools of blood. There was also wheat wine that flowed out of an overturned wine barrel.

Drip! Drip!

Bang!

The wine barrels that were still dripping were kicked away by a large foot. The one who kicked the barrels was dressed in linen clothes, and he was one of the villagers. His face was pale, and there was blood at the side of his mouth. He was staggering around the field aimlessly. His stomach had a big hole, and his intestines were flowing out.

"Roar!"

The scattered bonfire was still emitting light from the corner of his eye, illuminating this villager who was no longer alive. He let out a low roar from time to time, but suddenly, he stopped in his tracks and slowly turned his head to look at the grain warehouse at the eastern end of the village. After letting out the loudest roar, he staggered over as if he was summoned by something.

… 

"Roar!"

Bang Bang Bang! 

"Village Chief, we can't.."

"There are too many monsters..."

"We can't block all of them..."

"Sob sob sob…"

"..."

The chaotic roar, the banging of doors, the sounds of conversations in unknown languages, and the familiar cries of various races penetrated Tian Xing's ears.

"Uhh..."

Frowning, the frustrated Tian Xing wanted to open his eyes and sit up, but he could not do so no matter how hard he tried. His entire body was weak, and his chest was still in pain. It was so painful that he could barely breathe.

Huff!

In the end, Tian Xing gave up trying. Since he could not get up, he would just lie down! There was an old saying that went well, "wherever one fell, one would just roll over and lie down." — it would be even better if he had a pillow.

"Where am I?"

Tian Xing liked to let his thoughts run wild when he was quiet. After he quieted down, he recalled what had happened before he fainted.

"I remember... I think... Wait!"

In his shock, Tian Xing suddenly opened his eyes. He was filled with fear as he remembered that when he was walking on the sidewalk earlier, a truck full of goods suddenly lost control and crashed into him. No one wanted to experience that feeling a second time.

Then the question came. How did he come back to life?

"How did I come back to life? Where am I?"

After recovering for a while, Tian Xing finally suppressed the fear in his heart. His eyes began to turn randomly as he observed the situation around him.

'This place is very dark, and there are flames all around. It might be nightfall, and I'm in a wooden building. The place is crowded with people from all walks of life. Are they foreigners? I don't understand what they're saying, but I feel that they're terrified. What are they afraid of?'

His field of vision was limited, and that was all Tian Xing could think of. Just as his mind was filled with questions, a middle-aged man with a broken arm squeezed through the crowd and walked over. 

When he saw that Tian Xing had opened his eyes, he cried out in surprise, "Parr, you're finally awake!"

… 

After he heard the man, Tian Xing's vision went black, and countless images flashed through his mind. It felt like a second had passed, but that one second also felt like ten years at the same time.

"So that's how it is!"

When Tian Xing opened his eyes again, all the questions in his heart disappeared.

"I've transmigrated into the body of a ten-year-old boy from another world."

The corner of Tian Xing's mouth twitched. He had encountered the most theatrical scene in a typical novel— a modern youth being hit by a car, and his soul transmigrated to another world.

"No way! Such a surprising thing can actually happen? And it happened to me! I'm a twenty-year-old single man! Wait! What does this have to do with me being a single man?"

After a few random words, Tian Xing began to accept this fact. After all, he was an orphan in his original world. No one would be sad if he died, and he did not have anything to worry about. However...

"My best buddy will definitely suffer in his mobile games. I can no longer go for rank matches with him. I hope that he doesn't drop from Silver-rank to Bronze-rank."

Tian Xing continued to utter nonsensical words to ease his chaotic and indescribable mood. However, in the eyes of the middle-aged man who called him, he seems like someone who has been knocked silly. 

"Parr! Do you still recognize who I am?" The middle-aged man grabbed Tian Xing's shoulder and shook him with a face full of anxiety.

"Yes, I do!"

After receiving the memories of this body's original owner, Tian Xing began to understand the language of this world. The middle-aged man shook him so hard that he was about to fall apart. He hurriedly shouted,

"You are my adopted father, Jack!"

"Phew!"

The middle-aged man with short dark red hair let out a sigh of relief. It seemed that his adopted son had not lost his memory. That was enough for him. The zombies outside were still knocking on the door. He had to go and hold them off.

"Parr, rest well."

After instructing his adopted son, the middle-aged man turned around and left. However, Tian Xing, who had occupied Parr's body, called out to him.

"Dad, Wait!"

Tian Xing had never called out his father's name before. Thus he found it difficult to speak. However, he had to force himself for his body to recover quickly.

"Parr, are you feeling unwell?" The middle-aged man turned around and came closer, wanting to see if there was something wrong with his adopted son's body.

"No, I just want to ask, where did my black short sword go?" Tian Xing used all his strength to move his right arm.

"Little brat, why are you still concerned about your short sword at this time? Here you go." As he spoke, the middle-aged man picked up a black-colored short sword with a scabbard about half a meter long and stuffed it into Tian Xing's slightly raised palm. Then, without saying anything else, he turned around and squeezed through the crowd to walk towards the heavy wooden door that was in the process of being knocked down. 

...

Phew!

"Great!"

Feeling the smooth touch of the sword scabbard in his hand, Tian Xing let out a long breath and then closed his eyes.

"Data Panel!"

As he chanted in his heart, a simple data panel that appeared in Tian Xing's mind along with Parr's memory appeared in front of him once again.

'Why the f*ck does he need to be up on time! And what the hell is this noob? Why is he so weak?'

After looking at the crude data panel, Tian Xing could not help but swear. At first, the data panel that looked like a game menu made him excited. After all, this was the cheat code of a transmigrator! But now, it seemed that it was probably useless. The last two columns of experience points were two big zeros.

He still had 10 HP left. At the back, there was a near-death indication. Skills and talents could not restore his vitality. What could he do? 

However, Tian Xing did not give up. According to Parr's memories, he felt that he could still save him. The only hope of surviving was the black sword in his hand.

"I must not make a mistake..."

Tian Xing focused all his energy on his right hand as he muttered, holding the black short sword. He tried his best to unsheath it with his thumb, but sadly, he found that his current strength could not even do such a simple thing.

'F*ck!'

Tian Xing cursed in his heart. He endured the pain in his chest and took a few deep breaths. Then, his breathing slowly became rhythmic.

"Wind Wolf Basic Breathing Technique!"

The technique on the data panel flashed. Ten seconds later, the value of his Spirit Points decreased by one point, while five points increased his Stamina. 

"Stamina represents the amount of strength that I can use!" Tian Xing muttered to himself. 

Six points of Stamina were enough for him to move his hands. Therefore, he extended his right hand, holding the short black sword in front of him. His left hand grabbed the hilt of the sword and pulled it up. The uneven black sword appeared in front of his eyes. There were two red dots the size of soybeans on it.

"Beep, Life Energy Points detected. Do you want to absorb it?" 

"Yes! I'll absorb it for sure!"

The prompt that suddenly popped up on the data panel made Tian Xing's face reveal a look of joy. He hurriedly shouted in his heart,

"Quickly absorb it!"

Beep, absorbing…

Beep, absorption complete. Total 20 Life Energy Points gained.

"Great!"
