Chapter 4: Reader: meow~

Start from the beginning
                                    

He should know this place, but he just couldn’t find it in his memories… It’s like when something was at the tip of his tongue and he could almost but not quite remember it.

Du Ze put that thought aside for now since he couldn’t remember why this scenery was familiar. Maybe later he will remember. Du Ze quietly looked at the endless empty space. Now he knows how the male lead in “Shadow World” felt. The first sentence that popped into this head was: This was really a barren land, ah! Not even a single blade of grass or an ant could be seen!

Q: What does this mean?

A: If there is nothing, then what can he eat!

This was a very mundane problem. In order to not become the first person transported into another world who d*ed because of hunger, Du Ze decided to start moving. Not having a real destination in mind, and since there were no landmarks except for the column of light, Du Ze headed in that direction. He just wanted to find a place where there were people. The language barrier was not that important, his priority right now was: Food (=_=+)

Du Ze’s moral integrity was shattered.

As he walked, the sky turned from dark to light. This place had day and night skies, the two of them revolving around the sky. The starry night sky that was directly above Du Ze before had moved down to his feet while the blue sky was now above. Du Ze did not see any creatures along the way and the landscape was still silent.

Distressed, Du Ze looked at the headphones in his hand. When he was transported into this world he had not received any advance warning and the headphones’ battery only had enough power for half a day so now it has no energy at all.

Find a charger.

Find a charging station.

Find food.

Du Ze rubbed his empty stomach and looked at the column of light that was still far away. He suddenly remembered the old saying: it looks very close but it is far away.

Either he would die of exhaustion or of starvation, there seemed to be no other choices.

The situation being what it was, Du Ze had no other choice. He reluctantly put his headphones into his pocket, gritted his teeth and continued to walk. However after walking from day to night, the four corners were still empty, the column of light was still far away, and the already bitter reader became even more bitter. However, perhaps due to excessive hunger, Du Ze no longer felt hunger pangs.

Walk then rest; walk then rest for a longer time; walk until exhaustion then lie on the crystal ground to sleep; wake up and continue to walk towards the pillar of light – he continued doing this for what seemed like forever. After repeating this routine for four to five days, Du Ze discovered something very unusual. A person who does not eat or drink can live up to five days. From the time when Du Ze crossed over, he had not eaten rice or drunk any water but he is still able to walk. Along the way, sometimes he felt hungry and thirsty but after some time the hunger and thirst eventually disappeared.

Is this the legendary golden finger? Looks like the great god is not very reliable, giving him a legendary cheat, but… don’t be so random, ah! The given skill should also have a name, ah! I’m begging you, please leave me a user guide!

Because the great god did not give him the user manual for the golden finger, the reader could only do his own research. Du Ze stopped for a while then began to explore his “skill.” Anyway, within half hour he will start to feel hungry. Considering his stomach problem, his golden finger should relate to physical strength.

The first experiment was strength. Looking at the empty space around him, the only thing available is the crystal ground below his feet. But he doesn’t know how hard it is, so even if he is able to break the crystal, he has no frame of reference.
