Friend of Elderly Women? One Hundred Thousand Gay Heads? Are These Nine Choices of Four Even Serious?

"I have three sins: I failed to protect my family, destroy the Holy Spirit Cult, and slay Tang San..."

Bai Jingtian, a youth with only the upper half of his body remaining, turned to look at the flames not far away, his expression growing ever more unwilling to accept his fate.

Although the memories of his previous life had just awakened, he and his family had already been slaughtered by Evil Soul Masters, and he was currently cosplaying as the imprisoned master. Whatever knowledge and ambitions he had possessed, it seemed too late for them now.

Everything could only become the prime minister's son's line...

Just then, a screen of light abruptly appeared before him, densely packed with text:

"Young man, as compensation for the late arrival of your past-life memories, please choose four of the following options to strengthen yourself. I hope you can live the rest of your life without regrets.

Option one: God King Apostle. You will gain the attention of Tang San, the Sea God and Asura God King, and become his agent in the mortal world. If you help him complete his tasks, you may ascend to the Divine Realm and become a divine official. If you betray him, you will be destroyed by the way to death, your soul scattered.

Option two: Shrek Successor. You will gain the approval and appreciation of Shrek Academy's higher-ups, as well as preferential access to resources. As the leader of the new generation of Shrek Seven Devils, you will devote your life to restoring Shrek's glory.

Option three: Holy Son Descends. Your lightning-element Martial Soul will mutate, and you will gain the appreciation and inheritance of the Holy Spirit Cult's higher-ups. You will become a Holy Son renowned throughout the world, wholesaling despair to the entire world.

Option four: One Hundred Thousand Gay Heads. You will gain the assistance of one hundred thousand Gay Head Fours. Against any male powerhouse, you will have a chance to seal his power and subject him to ultimate humiliation for three months. The price is that after those three months, there is a considerable chance you will be killed.

Option five: Friend of Elderly Women. When you meet a woman over eighty, there is an extremely high chance she will take a liking to you, but also a high chance you will experience an old man teasing a young rascal and get a taste of the rich woman package.

Option six: Blue Scientist. You will inherit the knowledge and practical skills of the vast majority of blue scientists from tokusatsu series.

Option seven: Original Four Strongest Template. You will receive the template and martial arts inheritance of a random member of the Original Four Strongest from the Magnetic Field world. There is a small chance of triggering a critical hit and receiving an additional inheritance from the Original Four Strongest. Your Martial Soul's lightning element will gain the potential to evolve into Electric Current Propulsion and eventually Magnetic Field Rotation.

Option eight: Dark Asura Path. You will gain the qualifications to learn the Dark Asura Path. If you obtain true love, your learning progress and speed will increase.

Option nine: three uses of Magnetic Field Haunting plus one trial card. It can be activated in a crisis to unconditionally summon a random Magnetic Field lunatic to resolve it. If you have a fixed template, you can fix the choice of person."

In his final burst of vitality, Bai Jingtian's memory became better than ever, and his reading speed was as if he had activated quantum wave speed-reading. In less than a blink, he had memorized all nine options.

He could no longer spare any attention for what the first sentence meant and immediately began making his choices.

He ruled out option one at once. Be Tang San's dog, with nothing but a divine official's position as payment?

If the reward were a God King's position, or even the Dragon God's, that would be another matter. But for terms like these, whoever wanted the job could take it. He certainly wouldn't.

He wouldn't consider option two either. How could he not know what a pile of crap Shrek was?

Besides, if the other options were powerful enough, Shrek Academy would come knocking even if he didn't choose this one, begging him to become one of the Shrek Seven Devils.

Option three... didn't sound like anything good.

Even if he really could become Sephiroth, that "man among men," what if this world refreshed a Cloud, who then diced him into mincemeat with Omnislash?

Would he go on living in Cloud's memory?

Option four... sounded awfully tempting, yeah. It was more than good enough as a superior substitute for option two.

Still, if the other options were more tempting, he could pass on it.

After all, using his own power to select Gay Head Fours loyal to him, having them humiliate whoever he chose, then making hundreds of millions of copies of the recording for people across the heavens and myriad worlds to enjoy-wouldn't that be even more exciting?

Option five... "Rich ladies, love me, so I can work twenty years less," was that it? What bastard who wanted Chao Tianxiang, Lin Huiqun, Elder Song, and the old lady Ye Xishui to fall in love with me put that in there?

Was it because old women were like fine wine, growing richer and mellower with age?

Anyone who could enjoy it was welcome to choose it. He, Bai Jingtian, wasn't blessed enough to partake.

Option six was a tremendous bargain. Soul Tools, that counterfeit answer to the meta, might already be falling out of favor, but tokusatsu's blue scientists were not something Soul Tools could constrain.

Take Ultraman Hikari, for example. As long as he could ensure his laboratory's safety, nothing could stand in his way.

Option seven was the absolute best of the best. For the Douluo Continent, Magnetic Field power was beyond anything the simple word "overpowered" could describe.

Besides, this was a template of the Original Four Strongest. Even if he got Oga, who had been wishy-washy all his life and lost all his cool in the ultimate battle royale in his Oga Man form, it would still be countless times better than being a dog for Tang San, Shrek Academy, or the Holy Spirit Cult!

He had to take option eight unconditionally too. Did anyone understand the value of a health tank who could be blasted to bits and instantly revive on the spot?

Besides, although Bai Jingtian had been a single dog with no romantic experience in his previous life, this was the continent of romance, so obtaining true love from someone else wouldn't be difficult. That was called a blessing in disguise.

Option nine seemed not to be worth it, but the power of Magnetic Field Haunting had already been personally verified by a certain dog-donkey. Even if Bai Jingtian encountered a Limit Douluo or a descending God King, he could crush them head-on.

Moreover, with option four to go with it, he wouldn't have to worry about being unlucky enough to roll the Giant Shark Heavenly King, who would destroy the Dou Ling Empire, where Bai Jingtian was now, along with its neighbors, the Star Luo Empire and the Heavenly Soul Empire, their neighbor the Sun Moon Empire, and even the neighbor's neighbor's neighbor, which existed only in theory.

Besides, given Bai Jingtian's present circumstances, whether for vengeance or to save his own life, Magnetic Field Haunting was the most important thing right now.

Then the answer was settled!

"I choose six, seven, eight, and nine!"

Bai Jingtian immediately made his selection. The next moment, the screen vanished, and four images representing the Original Four Strongest of the Magnetic Field world-"Sea Tiger, Oga, Tiandao, and Hell"-flashed rapidly past.

At last, the display stopped on an image of a battle, showing Sea Tiger fighting Hell when the two clashed.

"Congratulations! You have obtained the Sea Tiger template and martial arts inheritance. You have triggered a critical-hit reward and obtained the Hell-style martial arts inheritance.

The remaining rewards have been issued. I hope you can live the rest of your life without regrets."

A powerful force poured into his body, easing Bai Jingtian's pain somewhat.

However, although the Sea Tiger template had given Bai Jingtian a considerable boost, he still had to learn the Sea Tiger martial arts, Hell's inheritance, and the Dark Asura Path himself.

And Bai Jingtian was still in the imprisoned master's condition...

"Magnetic Field Haunting trial card, activate!"

With a thought from Bai Jingtian, a towering apparition immediately appeared beside him.

A muscular body, resolute eyes, and three red, inverted-triangle battle markings on his forehead: this was Bai Jingtian's chosen template character, one of the Magnetic Field world's Original Four Strongest, "Sea Tiger" Bai Junlang.

After appearing, however, Sea Tiger merely cast Bai Jingtian a sympathetic glance. Then he let his phantom body gradually disperse, merging with Bai Jingtian as he lay on the ground.

"Kid, I don't want you to experience the despair I once did. I'll let you experience my power first, so you can save your old man yourself.

Magnetic Field Rotation, Cellular Recombination!"
