Background / History

Zhou Yi accumulated billionaire-level wealth through stock investments after transmigrating, while the system repaired and enhanced his body beyond human limits. Conscious that his rapidly growing physical strength could make him arrogant, he deliberately cultivated humility and adopted a strict principle of avoiding risks without certainty. 2 47

His overriding goal is to return home without losing his own moral limits. Although he pursues experience, wealth, knowledge, and power aggressively, he distinguishes this from becoming a being who casually tramples human lives. 112 226

During the Assassin world arc, Zhou Yi became a Templar Knight and developed its abilities far beyond their initial level. His conflict with the Yishu people—who mistook him for one of their mutated descendants—became a lasting grievance after one pursued him for research. 48 96 109 118

Appearance

Zhou Yi is consistently described as exceptionally handsome, with a powerful but streamlined physique rather than exaggerated musculature. In formal settings, he can project an imperial, controlled presence through immaculate clothing and posture. 118 389 406 446

• His system-enhanced body exceeds normal human physical limits. 2
• He has firm, defined muscles and an athletic build. 446
• His killing experience created an intimidating aura that he cannot fully suppress at will. 110
• He can deliberately appear ordinary or harmless when dealing with unknown threats. 110 222

Personality

Zhou Yi is calculating, cautious, and highly adaptive. He evaluates threats before acting, conceals his full capabilities unless necessary, and frequently uses negotiations, bluffing, or carefully constructed identities to obtain what he wants. 47 173 244 469

He values independence and resists hierarchical control. When Daniel proposed a partnership, Zhou Yi explicitly rejected a superior-subordinate arrangement in favor of equal cooperation. He later declined Norrington's knighthood for the same reason. 112 201

Despite his pragmatism and occasional ruthlessness, Zhou Yi retains a personal moral boundary. He is willing to intervene against crises such as the Resident Evil outbreak and alien incursions even when no professional experience is guaranteed. 226

He enjoys showing off, teasing others, and monetizing useful opportunities, but can become serious and decisive when Earth or other worlds face large-scale threats. 96 490 494

Abilities & Skills

Enhanced Physiology and Knight Bloodline

Zhou Yi's system-enhanced body grants extraordinary physical capability, further amplified by the Templar Knight's bloodline.

• The Knight Bloodline enhances vision, hearing, strength, and speed. 48
• He can consciously control bodily reactions such as accelerated breathing and blood flow while the bloodline is active. 48
• Advanced Knight Bloodline provides a greater all-around enhancement. 96
• His physical ability was sufficient to match Diana in a fight while relying only on physical power. 289

Stealth and Backstab

His Templar Knight profession grants assassin-like magical techniques powered by his Magic stat.

• Novice Stealth Skill turns him into a faint shadow in dim conditions, approaching invisibility while reducing sound and increasing mobility. 74
• He can later control individual aspects of Stealth, including reduced weight, without becoming invisible. 232
• Advanced Backstab provides a reaction-speed boost and frontal instant-kill power against opponents at his former level. 96
• Advanced Backstab is extremely mana-intensive. 96

• He uses teleportation magic, dimensional travel, barriers, and spell arrays. 244 477 490
