NCCnovel Chapter 1 Prologue
Chapter 1 Prologue
As night fell, the moon was bright and the stars were few, with a cool breeze blowing.
On his way home from get off work, Shichen yawned, instantly shaking off his dejection.
Although it was another day of working overtime, the thought of going home to watch anime and play games cheered him up, and he couldn't help but quicken his pace.
When he arrived at the subway station, he took out his phone to scan the code to board the train, but it seemed like there was something wrong with his phone.
The phone screen was filled with a messy "GG" icon, with no "X" icon in the upper right corner and no exit button. He couldn't exit by pressing the home button.
"Infected with a virus? Your phone is already broken? It's only been two years!"
Shi Chen muttered to himself as he tried to turn off the computer, but it didn't work. Only then did he take a closer look at the pop-up message, "GG".
[If you had a chance to become a god, would you seize it?]
[Will/Will/Are]
The screen is full of GGs, but there are only two sentences, and the text is a bit small.
"What the hell is this? What's the difference between the three options? Who would choose this?"
There have been a lot of scammers like this lately. Although they're a bit different, they probably know he's into anime and manga, which is why they're doing these cringeworthy things.
It's well known that people in the anime/manga community are hard to fool. He doesn't believe this guy, and what if he clicks on it and his account balance disappears?
That was his foundation.
For a person, the key number in their account is their only support in life.
Shi Chen tried to turn off the phone again, but it still didn't work. The volume buttons wouldn't work either, and the home button wouldn't let him exit.
It seems more likely that the virus is the culprit.
Mobile phones are updated very quickly, but a normal mobile phone can be used for more than three years without any problems. Shichen originally did not want to change his mobile phone so early.
But in this situation, we have no choice but to change it.
Nowadays, mobile phones are an essential tool for going out. If they break, he can't do anything. Fortunately, staying at home doesn't count; he can just run back.
It's a good time to run and exercise, and I can also switch phones on the way.
He had always wanted to improve his physical fitness, as health is the foundation of everything, but he could never get started. Even though he was determined, he would always find various excuses to procrastinate.
Knowing something is one thing, doing it is another.
And so this delay lasted for several years.
Looks like it's finally going to start today.
For some reason, I'm even a little grateful to this virus.
Shi Chen put his phone away, grabbed his shoulder bag, and started running.
He runs very slowly. He hasn't run in a long time and needs to get used to it first, otherwise he'll be finished before he's even started running.
Thinking about how he would really have to start training his body in the future, Shi Chen got a little excited and couldn't help but speed up.
But at that moment!
Suddenly, a large, dark shadow appeared in front of him and rushed towards him at high speed!
It's a truck!
Without any warning or commotion, it appeared as if it had suddenly appeared.
A chill ran down his spine and he broke out in a cold sweat. But perhaps it was his strong will to survive, but he reacted instinctively and pushed off the ground with both feet, lunging to the side.
Swish!
The truck sped past without slowing down or stopping, until it disappeared from sight.
When Shichen sat up, he couldn't even see a trace of the car. Suppressing the urge to curse, he touched his ankle and grimaced.
My body reacted too quickly, unleashing its potential, but also twisted my joint; my ankle seems swollen.
He didn't dare move his feet and could only sit there and wait to recover.
At this moment, Shi Chen cursed the truck driver, wishing he would hurry up and be reincarnated.
If it weren't for his strong will to survive, he would have hitched a ride to another world.
It's a bit strange, though. The truck was going so fast, why was there no sound at all? He was just running, he wasn't desensitized, and he was paying attention to his surroundings, so how could he not hear anything?
too weird.
Just as he was thinking this, Shi Chen suddenly noticed a flash of light at the edge of his field of vision.
Hmm? Firelight?
He couldn't help but look up to see what was going on, and then he saw a fire-bearing object hurtling straight down on him.
"?"
The flames grew larger and larger, and the falling objects grew larger and larger, until they filled the eyeball of the hour.
It's a meteorite?!
With countless words and thoughts, I can only blurt out one common plant.
Grass!
Bang-!
Shi Chen was struck hard by the meteorite, and had no ability to resist. His body was completely destroyed, leaving not even a trace.
Shi Chen never imagined he would be killed by a meteorite; he didn't know whether to call it good luck or bad luck.
He dodged the truck, but then a meteorite struck. Was death coming for him?
He didn't do anything heinous. He would help elderly ladies cross the street, and he was always willing to lend a hand to people in need. He was friendly, had a gentle tone, and was a typical good-natured person.
How could such a kind-hearted person be caught by death?
Does good deed go unrewarded?
and many more!
Why can I still think?
Shi Chen suddenly realized the problem, and then he heard a mechanical, emotionless voice.
[The host has been granted the opportunity to become a god; the system is currently reshaping the host's body.]
[Body reconstruction begins!]

"?"
What the heck?
The mobile phone virus that just appeared?
It's not fake?
But it seems like they were forced to agree?
So the truck attack and the meteorite fall were both caused by this thing?
Shi Chen tried to move his hands and feet, but he couldn't feel anything; only his mind could function.
If it's true, then he won't pursue it further; living is better than dying. But if it's false, then he'll truly be in despair.
In this situation, he might have become a vegetable.
Being alone, becoming a vegetable, or dying are no different.
Shichen is optimistic. Even without family and busy with work, he is content as long as he can watch anime, play games, and occasionally get together with friends.
Life is that simple. He's just an ordinary person, content with what he has.
[two%]

The mechanical voice continued, which reassured Shi Chen a lot, and he could also feel his feet and legs again.
Was the reshaping done starting from the lower body?
Shichen still had the interest to think about these things.
There's nothing we can do, it's all too sudden. Suddenly asking him to become a god or something, he has no concept of it.
Although there are many such plots in anime and novels, they are ultimately fantasy, fake, and do not exist.
He also recognized reality and stopped dreaming unattainable dreams.
This suddenly really happened to him, and he was very confused. Was there something special about him?
It can't be that good people always get good rewards, can it?
There are many good people in this world, and even if good people are rewarded, it's unlikely that he will be among them.
But whatever, since it has happened to him, he might as well accept it.

[Body reconstruction complete.]
[Congratulations, host, on achieving a divine body, an immaculate form, and a flawless form.]
[The divine body: above all else, sacred and inviolable.]
[A pure body: Free from defilement and impurity.]
[A flawless body: untouched by dust, pure and immaculate.]
Shi Chen could feel his body again, and it was indeed a little better than before, with a particularly relaxed feeling, but he couldn't quite grasp the specifics yet. Similarly, he could also see.
He was in a white space, empty and silent, with no end in sight.
Shi Chen wasn't interested in this space; he first looked down and examined himself.
He was completely naked, yet his skin was as white as jade, incredibly alluring. He seemed to have grown taller, with strong, powerful legs and well-defined, yet not overly prominent, abdominal lines—this was the physique he had always desired.
My little brother seems to have grown up a lot...emmm.
The ground in this space was like the surface of water. Shichen squatted down and looked at his own appearance.
It seems like nothing has changed, but it's also very obvious that he has. It's still him, but he looks younger, more handsome, and more dreamlike, giving him the feeling that he has transformed into a god-like figure.
It seems he has become a god, so can he still become younger?
pretty good.
So what is he going to do next?
The question had barely crossed my mind when, as if in response, the mechanical voice rang out again.
[The divine body has been formed; the quest to become a god has begun.]
[Please collect ninety-nine fragments of divine essence. Once collected, you will become a god.]
[The fragments reside in different people in different worlds, requiring the host to actively contact them and gain their trust.]
"Ninety-nine fragments of divine essence? Different worlds? This is so troublesome! When will it take? Will it take until I'm old?"
[The divine body never ages.]
"Then your mind will age too."
[The host has no right to refuse.]
"..."
[Next, the host will travel to the world of "The Burial of Frilian" to search for fragments of divinity. Please prepare, 3, 2...]
"What did you say?" Shi Chen suddenly froze, wondering if he had misheard.
But the mechanical voice ignored him.
[1. Teleportation begins.]
Before he could ask any more questions, a black hole suddenly appeared beneath Shi Chen's feet, and he fell right into it without warning.
