"You've arrived, Blood Fiend."
"So, have the materials needed to construct the dimensional gate finally been identified?"
"Boundary Breaking Armor, Crystal Realm Fruit, Crimson Lotus Karmic Fire, Truth Incantation, Rakshasa True Word, Gleaming Gold South-Pointing Compass... all troublesome things."
"As a reward for you, I'll let you be the vanguard in collecting the materials."
"This is the highest honor... what, you don't want it?"
"Hmm, that's more like it. Good luck, Blood Fiend, don't disappoint my expectations..."
"How's the progress, Blood Fiend?"
"After so long, you've only obtained the Crystal Realm Fruit and a wisp of the Crimson Lotus Karmic Fire?"
"What a waste!"
"I'll have others retrieve the main body of the Crimson Lotus Karmic Fire."
"As for you... I'll give you six months to bring me the Rakshasa True Word..."
"Otherwise... you know the consequences..."
*********************************************
I woke up with a splitting headache.
I felt grass beneath me and realized I was lying on my back.
Opening my eyes, I saw a sky full of stars, a beautiful night sky, and three moons.
Wait, three moons?
I sprang up like a shrimp, gazing at the sky—that's right, three moons hung in the brilliant night sky! One silver-white, one golden yellow, and one orange-yellow... What's going on!
My head started to hurt again... I slowly recalled what happened before.
Leaving school to get my bike, I encountered the culprit of a massacre—that Blood Mist. As I was dying, I was sucked into a spatial rift that suddenly appeared. I barely won the tug-of-war against the Blood Mist, and then... I dreamt of something while unconscious, it seemed like a man was talking to me... When I woke up, I was here.
Looking around, this seemed to be a clearing in a forest. Giant trees I couldn't name surrounded me, a far cry from the street where I encountered the Blood Mist. Deeply influenced by web novels, I immediately understood my situation: I had transmigrated.
My mind went blank. Transmigration, I actually transmigrated. Not soul transmigration or reincarnation, but my physical body directly transmigrated to another world. As an ordinary, dead university student, I knew nothing about wilderness survival, nor did I understand magic or martial arts. I didn't even know how to run a business to make money. Other transmigration protagonists at least had a skill from their original world, using their knowledge to make money, pick up girls, and improve their status in the new world... What about me? What would I rely on to establish myself in this other world? Soldering circuit boards?
"In short, I must first understand this world, and then..." I shook off my confusion and muttered to myself, "...find a way back!"
That's right, I had to find a way back! Since my entire being had transmigrated to another world, the me from the original world must be considered missing. My roommates, facing police inquiries, anxiously speculated about my whereabouts; my parents, in tears, searched all over the city for me; my grandparents, whose health was already poor, upon hearing the news of my disappearance... I dared not think further. My family, my friends, my unfinished university life... everything I cherished was in another world, so I couldn't be like the male protagonists in transmigration novels who cut ties with their past upon arriving in a new world and heartlessly enjoyed their new lives!
Since I had adjusted my emotions, it was time to act, at least to get out of this forest first. With that thought, I brushed aside my hair and walked forward...
Wait, brushed aside my hair?
I reached up to my head and felt not the expected buzz cut, but flowing long hair.
Speaking of which, since a moment ago, my chest felt... so heavy? And when I muttered to myself just now, didn't my voice sound surprisingly high-pitched?
Shocked by the fact of my transmigration upon waking, I only now realized the abnormality of my body.
No way, no way, no way, no way, no way, no way.
Trembling, I lowered my head, but I couldn't see my feet because two high, prominent peaks blocked my view.
"Don't be ridiculous!"
There was no mistake! The roar I just let out, though its pitch changed due to anger, was absolutely, one hundred percent, a woman's voice!
Just as I was in utter disarray, I suddenly heard someone shouting from a distance.
"Did you hear that? Sounds like someone's yelling over there."
A reply came from another direction: "Seems like it, let's go check it out."
I snapped out of my panic. I'd deal with the body issue later. Judging by their conversation, were these residents of this world? Was I going to interact with the natives so soon? Their language seemed no different from Chinese? Were they friendly? Should I ask them for information?
After thinking for a moment, I decided to hide and observe the situation first. So, I immediately ran towards the nearby bushes. On the ground there, I found a hollow, a natural hiding spot.
Through the gaps in the leaves, I watched the clearing. Soon, two men emerged from the giant trees.
Their appearance was somewhat like a mix of East and West from Earth. They wore pure white uniforms. One looked relaxed, the other serious, and both held palm-sized boxes. As soon as they came out, they looked around as if searching for something.
"Did we mishear? Is there anyone here? Let's just pack up and go home."
"The family head discovered strong Spiritual Energy Shockwaves in this area two days ago. Strange occurrences have been happening everywhere recently. If something really happened, we wouldn't be able to handle it."
As he spoke, the man flipped open the lid of the box in his hand. Instantly, a pale yellow light screen spread out from the box. I quickly lowered my head, curling up entirely in the hollow. The light screen passed directly over my head, spreading for dozens of meters before fading and disappearing.
"See? No abnormal reactions. You're worrying too much."
"It only means there's no one on the surface. Our compass level is too low, and the detection range is too narrow."
"Hey, hey... Are you planning to search yourself? With my detection Supernatural Ability, without the compass's assistance, I'm useless! Besides, those top students have already searched most of the area and found nothing!"
"Indeed. Then I'll report this place..."
"Are you crazy? Alerting the higher-ups for such a trivial matter!"
Seeing the two men arguing, I quietly got up, trying to ignore the slight sway of the two mountains on my chest, and quietly slipped away under the cover of the trees. Ten meters, twenty meters... I moved stealthily through the dense forest for nearly three hundred meters until I reached a sparkling river before I felt relieved.
At this distance, I shouldn't be discovered. To be safe, I waited a few more minutes, but there was still no movement around me.
It seems there's no one else nearby.
So...
I swallowed.
It was time to examine my body.
I carefully took off my tattered clothes and slowly walked to the riverbank. My long hair brushed against my neck, tickling me. The two mounds on my chest swayed with my steps, making me anxious. The moonlight in this world was incredibly bright, and the gently flowing river reflected the moonlight, appearing like a natural mirror. I took a deep breath and, with a "what the hell" attitude, looked at the water!
At that moment, my heart seemed to stop beating.
Beautiful, waterfall-like black long hair, a flawless snow-white face, incredibly red cherry lips, sparkling, crystal-clear eyes, slender willow brows, a cute little nose, and delicate, small ears hidden within the black cascade of hair, occasionally peeking out playfully, exuding a peculiar charm. The features, each perfect in its own way, combined flawlessly, creating a beauty as divine as a goddess.
Looking down, a slender, perfectly proportioned figure, paired with flawless, jade-like skin, formed this beautiful body, like a work of art. Slender hands, without a single scar, were as soft and tender as a newborn baby's. Sculpted, slender jade legs, shimmering with a snow-white, tender hue, evoked endless fantasies... A delicate, snow-white neck, having lost its former masculine symbol, was instead tinged with a faint pink, further enhancing the overall exquisite beauty.
...That would be one thing, but the crucial part was the bust! This cup size, at least an E! And not sagging at all from gravity!
I collapsed powerlessly onto the ground.
I had transformed, I had truly transformed.
And it was the kind that could topple nations.
