Life Simulation System

"Ahh~"

Han Han sucked in a sharp breath as countless memories played through his mind like a slideshow. The process lasted a full hour.

"What is this...?!"

Han Han stepped out of the room. He was on an unimaginably enormous tree, which was covered in hundreds of millions of tree houses.

"How beautiful."

"Too bad... Thousand Leaf Planet has been enslaved for generations."

After absorbing the memories, Han Han had learned what world he was in and what situation he was facing.

Without a doubt.

He'd picked up key information about slave planets, the universe, Apprentice Rank, Planet Rank, and, most importantly, the Virtual Universe. This confirmed that he was in the world of Swallowed Star.

The Thousand Leaf Planet where he lived was a slave planet that had been enslaved for over two hundred years.

Thousand Leaf Planet had a population of over ten billion. Everyone reached Apprentice Rank upon adulthood, and those with a little talent could reach the ninth stage of Apprentice Rank. Unfortunately, not many managed to break through to Planet Rank.

As for the original owner of this body...

He'd just come of age today. But an accident while absorbing Cosmic Origin Energy had killed him, and Han Han, a transmigrator, had taken over his body at the moment of his death.

"Thousand Leaf Planet uses an elimination system."

"You come of age at twenty. If you haven't reached the fifth stage of Apprentice Rank by twenty-five, you become a breeding tool."

"Four stages in five years... That'll be tough."

Han Han knew very well that the first time someone absorbed Cosmic Origin Energy was the most effective. Some people could even reach the third or fourth stage of Apprentice Rank in a single attempt.

But he hadn't even reached the second stage.

With talent like his, he'd inevitably become a breeding tool in five years, barring some unexpected turn of events. Breeding tools lived an average of just twenty-seven years...

"Ding!"

A crisp sound rang out.

It sounded mechanical, but to Han Han, it was more pleasing than any music he'd ever heard.

[Life Simulation System successfully bound]

[The host can spend Simulation Counts to simulate a life. Based on the evaluation, the host can bring back rewards—including, but not limited to, items and Law Comprehension—to reality]

"How do I get Simulation Counts?"

Han Han suppressed his excitement and asked. If he could, he really wanted to shout, I've got a cheat too!!!

[Apprentice Rank: one Simulation Count every three days. Planet Rank: one every month. Star Rank: one every year. Universe Rank: one every ten years, and so on]

[Simulation Counts can accumulate]

[Whenever you break through a major realm, your Simulation Count resets to one. Please choose your reward carefully]

"Not bad, not bad." Han Han was delighted.

He'd read plenty of novels. Some simulation systems let you exchange items for Simulation Counts. This system worked differently, but he could accept that.

The last two pieces of information were easy to understand, too.

"So if I choose a cultivation reward that lets me skip a major realm, I'd better wait until the final simulation. Otherwise, all my accumulated Simulation Counts will reset to one," Han Han reasoned.

That was good, too.

If he had no Simulation Counts, breaking through a major realm would immediately give him one.

"I should have one simulation now, right?" Han Han contacted the system in his mind. Technically, he'd just broken through to Apprentice Rank, which counted as his first realm.

[Simulation Count: 1]

"Then... Actually, wait."

Han Han looked around, then decided to return to his tree house and sit cross-legged as if he were cultivating.

There were surveillance cameras all over Thousand Leaf Planet. At least in his area, the Supervisor could see his every move. That was why he'd held back from revealing that he'd transmigrated.

Once he was ready, Han Han closed his eyes.

"Let's begin."

[Simulation Count: 0]

[During the simulation, the host will not possess memories related to the world, but will have the same personality and other traits as the host]

[The host's realm is weak. This simulation will be presented in text]

"Fair enough."

Han Han knew that he was only at Apprentice Rank. Fusing with the original owner's memories had already been difficult enough. If he had to personally enter one simulation after another, he'd go mad sooner or later.

[Life simulation begins]

[Age 20: On the age Thousand Leaf Star People came of age, you successfully reached the first stage of Apprentice Rank. Unfortunately, your first attempt at absorbing Cosmic Origin Energy was ineffective]

[Age 21: Your neighbor also reached Apprentice Rank, but he broke through directly to the third stage and awakened the rare talent of a Spiritual Force Reader. As for you, with your dismal talent, you remained at the first stage of Apprentice Rank]

[Age 22: The Supervisor sent you to gather Three Illusion Leaf]

[Age 23: Knowing you had to reach the fifth stage of Apprentice Rank by the time you turned 25, you gathered Three Illusion Leaf with all your might. Your efforts stood in stark contrast to those of the other Thousand Leaf Star People, who thought you were born to be a slave]

[You were ostracized]

[But you didn't care. That same year, your hard work led to a batch of Thousand Leaf Star People being executed, and made the Supervisor realize that productivity could be so high. The quota for gathering Three Illusion Leaf was raised by 50%]

[You were rewarded with some basic resources]

[Age 24: You reached the second stage of Apprentice Rank]

[Because the quota had increased, you couldn't meet the requirements for a reward again, no matter how hard you worked]

[Age 25: You reached the third stage of Apprentice Rank]

[Age 26: You had failed to reach the fifth stage of Apprentice Rank by this age. Under Thousand Leaf Planet's rules, you were among those with the worst talent]

[You were branded a breeding tool]

[You were assigned to Thousand Leaf Planet's breeding zone, where all the female Thousand Leaf Star People with poor talent lived. You were given four mating partners]

[Age 27: You worked hard to reproduce, and the probability of your partners bearing children was extremely high. The number of your mating partners increased to eight]

[Age 28: Your reproductive rate was far ahead of everyone else's]

[Age 29: In just three years, you got 169 female Thousand Leaf Star People pregnant and fathered nearly 300 children. As a result, the reproductive quota was raised by 20%]

[You were rewarded with some basic resources and reached the fourth stage of Apprentice Rank]

[Unfortunately, this work had an average life expectancy of only 27. Your body was severely depleted, and even with resources to help you cultivate, there was no way to make up for it]

[Age 30: Sensing that death was near, you decided to make one last attempt to reach the fifth stage of Apprentice Rank. This was the realm that would determine your fate]

[You succeeded, but you died]

[This simulation has ended]

[Evaluation: A-66]

[Evaluations range from lowest to highest: A~G~SSS. Each grade uses a 100-point scale]

[In the simulation, you worked hard to gather Three Illusion Leaf and did your utmost to reproduce. By yourself, you raised Thousand Leaf Planet's standards for enslavement. The Thousand Leaf Star People will never forget your name]

[Choose one of the following rewards]

[One: Fifth stage of Apprentice Rank]

[Two: Basic resources x2]

[Three: Three Illusion Leaf gathering experience; extraordinary mating experience]

"Ahh~"

Han Han sucked in a sharp breath. "No wonder I'm me. I single-handedly made the enslavement of Thousand Leaf Planet even worse."

The simulation showed that he really was capable.

The quota for gathering Three Illusion Leaf had gone up by a full half, and the reproductive rate had increased by a fifth. All he could say was that he'd put his talent points in the wrong place—not into cultivation.

But the simulation had also reflected his personality well.

If he hadn't gone all out, reaching even the third stage of Apprentice Rank would've been quite an achievement.
