New World: "I can communicate with the author; both the Protagonist and the author are cheating!"

Time Travel Mode: Protagonist replacement, complete replacement, Clone replacing the main character.

Seal: Completely sealed!

Unsealing condition: Primarily based on the consciousness of the original body.

Aura: Infinite Passive Guaranteed Minimum Aura (already activated), ensuring a minimum return regardless of economic conditions.

Late at night, Ling Yi, who was setting up a private server for the mir2 game, suddenly heard a cheeky voice in his mind.

Author's note: Congratulations, kid. From now on, you're the Protagonist of my novel.

Ling Yi looked completely bewildered, glancing around blankly. Was he hallucinating?

Author's note: This is not a hallucination. I am an online novel author, and I'm preparing to write a novel. You are now the Protagonist of my novel.

"I'm the Protagonist? How can you, an author, talk to the Protagonist?"

Author: Hehehe, I've activated a cheat ability that allows me to directly communicate with the Protagonist in my novel. Whenever the Protagonist gains an ability, I gain that ability too.

"So, my world is fake, and I'm a fictional character?" This was something Ling Yi found hard to accept.

Author: No, no, no, it's not what you think. Your world is still the real world. You were originally just an ordinary person. It was I who bound your world to the system and defined you as the Protagonist.

Author's note: From this day forward, you will be extraordinary, and everything you experience will become a novel in my world.

"Can I take this to mean that from now on, I have to follow your plan?"

Author: No, I'm just providing you with a cheat code to make your life take off. How it actually works is up to you.

"A cheat system? Does it exist now? Send me one first!" Ling Yi asked cautiously.

Whether it's auditory hallucination or something else, I want a benefit first.

If it's true, then I'll be rich and successful, and my career will soar to Yifei heights.

If it's fake, then I'll probably have to go to the Second Hospital.

Author: Yes, of course, and you can customize your own cheat codes, but...

"..." But what about...?"

Author: However, there's a prerequisite: because this novel is categorized as a time-travel story, you have to travel to Parallel World for our cheat abilities to activate simultaneously.

"I refuse. I'm perfectly fine living in my own world. Why would I want to travel to a strange one? It might be interesting if it were a movie or novel world, but it's just Parallel World. I'm not going." Ling Yi refused outright.

Author: But if you don't time travel, my system can't be activated, and if my system can't be activated, I can't define a cheat code for you.

Ling Yi certainly didn't want to transmigrate; who would willingly choose an ordinary life?

Besides, he was an orphan with no Bond to this world, so time travel wasn't a burden for him. He refused because he wanted to test it out.

If the other party is the author, and you are the Protagonist in their novel, is it really true, as the author claims, that you can still decide your own life and will not be controlled by the author?

Author: Wo Cao, Ling Yi, say something! Do you really want to be an ordinary person your whole life, instead of becoming the Protagonist who wields power over the world and enjoys the company of beautiful women?

Author: You're an orphan with no friends, so even if you were transported to a new world, it wouldn't be a big deal, right?

Author's note: My system's newbie gift pack includes one opportunity to customize a level 1 cheat code for the Protagonist.

Author: Okay, to be honest, I'm just a struggling author. I don't aspire to be a top author, but who wants to be ordinary? I'm fed up with an ordinary life.

Author: Hey, give me a response! I finally got the system, and this chance to bind to the Protagonist's world only comes once!

"Tell me about the functions of your cheat system." After listening to the incessant chatter in his mind for a long time, Ling Yi finally said with a smile.

Author: Phew!

Author: It's no big deal to tell you, after all, we'll be supporting each other from now on, like grasshoppers on the same rope.

Author: My system's cheat is called the Novel System. It has three main functions. The first is the novel setting, which I need to complete in advance. My setting this time is a time-travel novel.

Author: After all, I'm only good at writing time-travel novels. The second function is that everything you experience will be automatically generated into novel text. That's right, I don't need to write it myself. I just need to publish the generated novel chapter by chapter.

Author: You gain popularity points through the novel, and these points can be used by the Protagonist, that is, you Ling Yi, to exchange for even more powerful cheat codes.

Author: The third function, which I just mentioned, is that I will acquire the abilities that the Protagonist gains in the novel.

"So, popularity is key, and the quality of the novel determines popularity. In other words, my performance determines the quality of the novel, right?"

Author:... Uh, yes!

"You didn't even think about such an important question?"

Author: Blushing. jpg!

No wonder he's a flop author.

Author: Hey, don't hit someone in the face. So what if you're a struggling author? You're still an author, okay?

"Is there any difference between my Minecraft and your world?" Ling Yi asked another crucial question.

Author's note: There is no difference; they are Parallel World. Except that your world doesn't have me, Minecraft doesn't have you, they are exactly the same.

"If that's the case, does it mean that the current situation in the online Literary World of both of us is pretty much the same?"

Author: That's right, apart from the difference between you and me, everything else is the same.

"Then why do you still write time-travel novels? Don't you know that time-travel novels are already overdone?"

Author: Well, it depends on what kind of cheat/gift it is.

"What level can a level 1 cheat ability achieve?" Ling Yi asked again.

Author's Note: This is a Level 1 cheat system, meaning the Protagonist's rate of becoming stronger is much slower, but the method is not limited.

The two then fell silent, seemingly pondering how to design the cheat system to maximize their benefits.

After a long while, Ling Yi spoke again.

"I do have an idea. Since it's about time travel, then time travel in reverse should also count as time travel, right?"

Author's note: Reverse time-travel novels don't seem to be very popular.

"No, no, no, it's not just a simple time travel. You should know I'm a private server operator for MiR2."

"I was thinking, if I developed a private server game that allowed Protagonist from Myriad Worlds to log in, and I could also enter the game, there would be a chance that their abilities would drop if I killed these horned creatures in the game."

"And everything the Protagonist gain in my game can be taken out of the game world..."

Author: Wocao, your idea is absolutely brilliant! It has the feel of time travel, but you don't have to leave your own world.

Author's note: However, isn't just having a private server for the game mir2 a bit too monotonous?

"Games can be added at any time. For example, when the number of players Myriad Worlds reaches a certain level, a new game can be started. You'll need to set that up."

Author: Let me ask the system if this works.

A few minutes later...

Author: Absolutely, I'll create your first cheat code right away.

"So now there's one last question," Ling Yi said after thinking for a moment.

Author: What else?

"How's the writing style of your system? You said it yourself, your system automatically generates novel text based on my actions. If it has no writing style at all, then no matter how much effort I put in, it's probably all for nothing."

Author: Probably not. It's a system, after all. If it has problems, what kind of system is it?

"That's true!"

The author has stopped responding; clearly, they've gone off to do something else.

About ten minutes later, an electronic notification sounded in Ling Yi's mind.

This voice is clearly very different from the author's speaking voice.

"Ding, system detected host, initiating binding, binding successful."

"Ding, the system is detecting the surrounding environment and searching for a carrier."

"Ding, target carrier successfully located. Modification in progress."

Ling Yi stared expressionlessly at the Computer in front of him, which was currently emitting a Yingying glow.

What was originally an ordinary desktop computer began to shrink and Shapeshifting rapidly, soon turning into a pure blue water droplet.

The next moment, the water droplet floated up from the table, accelerated suddenly, and disappeared into Ling Yi's mind.

"Ding, the Myriad Worlds Login Game System has been activated."

"Ding, currently available game: Mir 2 - Super Modified Private Server. Do you want to start the game?"

Ling Yi's lips twitched. This overused novel trope really gave him absolutely no sense of anticipation.

Moreover, this system's cheat-like ability was something he and the author devised together, so expectations should be even lower.

"Start up!"

"Ding, Mir 2 - Super Modified Private Server. Myriad Worlds Version, starting up..."

"Ding, startup successful. Host can log into the game world at any time. Invite players from Myriad Worlds?"

"Yes!"

"Ding, inviting you..."

"Ding, the number of players who have accepted the invitation is currently 75."

Ling Yi frowned. "What about those players who refused the invitation?"

"Ding! Players who declined the invitation will be re-invited at 6:00 AM every day until the target accepts."

How many players did you invite in total?

"Ding! 10,000 players."

Out of 10,000 players, only 75 agreed? But thinking about it, it Protagonist Karmic Luck different worlds.

The main Protagonist in this Karmic Luck all share a common flaw: they are suspicious.

However, is inviting only 10,000 players a bit too few?

"System, how do I increase the maximum number of invitations?"

"Ding! By defeating other players in the game world, the host has a chance to obtain their cultivation techniques, martial arts skills, supernatural abilities, equipment, and attributes. Furthermore, based on the target player's strength, the host will receive varying amounts of points..."

"Alright, that's enough for now. It definitely requires consuming points to upgrade the system and increase the player cap, right?"

"Ding, yes, host."

"I want to log in to the game."

"Ding, simply say 'Log in' to complete the process."

With a thought, Ling Yi Ling Yi a vortex that appeared out of thin air and swallowed him whole.

"Damn, this experience is terrible!"

Ling Yi's sarcastic remark echoed from within the vortex, after which the vortex vanished.
