How did I become the Lord of Evil Gods?

Chapter 1 Frostfall City, Energy Tower and Vampires

It is October, 4243 in the Herar calendar, in the cold winter.

In the northern border of Frost Kingdom, the seaport city Frostfall City.

As night falls, the energy tower standing in the center of the city begins to operate. Accompanied by the low roar of the supercritical boiler, gray-black high-temperature exhaust gas is discharged above the energy tower.

The strong flammable liquid from the underground world, made by goblin craftsmen, releases energy in the boiler that far exceeds that of burning coal, and continuously pumps water deep into the ground through giant water pumps.

After complex thermal energy conversion, the ultra-high temperature steam extracted from the underground passes through the thermal energy shell of the energy tower, along the steam pipelines throughout the city, and is input into steam hubs to heat the city streets.

As the city's temperature rises, the snow that accumulates on the streets during the day melts.

A figure lying deep in the alley gradually regained consciousness.
  "Cold, so cold!"

A biting cold awakened Yun Mu. She opened her eyes and found herself lying in an alley covered with snow.

He was wearing a heavy leather coat and a pair of equally heavy coarse cloth trousers.

Under his feet was a pair of muddy leather boots.

At this time, her clothes were covered with snow water, which was the main reason why she felt cold.

"Where is this!?" Yun Mu subconsciously opened his eyes and stood up from the ground with a sudden movement.

She clearly remembered that she was in a warm home, sitting at the computer desk, making small games while turning on the heater and humming songs. Why was she here all of a sudden?
  Looking at the buildings outside the alley, none of them were familiar modern high-rise buildings to her. They were all made of cold gray insulating stone, with some wooden structures and exposed metal pipes.

It reminded her of some steampunk works.

"I won't be able to travel through time, will I?"

She looked down at her hands: fair skin, slender fingers, and a thin layer of calluses on some joints.

Her perspective at this time was also different from usual, and she could clearly feel that she had become shorter.

This is not her original body!
  Yun Mu only felt a loud "buzz" sound coming from his brain, and his whole body froze on the spot.

The bodies have been changed, what is this if not time traveling?
  But the problem is, she has no intention of traveling through time!
  "Ugh"

After a while, she sighed quietly.

If you want to time travel, just go back in time. Anyway, her parents passed away early, so there's nothing worth worrying about. The only pity is that she made more than half of the game, so she probably won't have the chance to see it released.

Just as she was thinking this, a gust of cold wind whistled past her, making her shiver.

At the same time, a newspaper with a slightly yellow surface and wet with snow fell at her feet.

"This is."

Yun Mu bent down to pick up the newspaper and found that there was a dark writing on it that looked like a combination of some kind of letters.

[Steam technology is shocking! The energy tower is activated for the first time, and the whole city is like spring! 】

This was the headline of the newspaper, and for some reason she could tell the meaning of the words at a glance.

The word "春日" is the result of her translation based on her own understanding.

Under the title, a gray-white photo of the mayor, workers and goblin craftsmen standing in front of a building suspected to be an energy tower was reflected on the paper.

"What kind of black technology is this?" Yun Mu complained after reading the introduction of the energy tower in the newspaper.

Continuing reading, another piece of news soon caught her attention.

[The murderer of the mummy serial murder case is still at large, the fourth victim was killed this month! 】

"Murder case?" Yun Mu looked a little strange. In her impression, it seemed that every time traveler would eventually encounter the murderer once he saw such things in the news or newspapers.

"What are you thinking about?" She shook her head: "It's all just artistic processing."

As she spoke, she turned over the pages of the newspaper.

A photo of a horrifying-looking corpse appeared on the pages of a newspaper.

The deceased looked like a dried jujube. His muscles were atrophied and his skin was full of wrinkles. Under the thin skin, the outline of the bones could be clearly seen.

suddenly! Just after she saw the deceased in the photo.

As if she had been stimulated by something, or a switch had been turned on, a large number of memories poured out of her mind like a tide.

It took a while for her to finish digesting the memory of her predecessor.

It turns out that the original owner of the body she traveled through was an orphan.

He has no name. He has been making a living on the streets of Frostfall City since he can remember, and he learned the art of pickpocketing on his own without anyone teaching him.

As for why she can understand the words on the newspaper, it has something to do with a god in this world.

Yes, Yun Mu learned from his memory that there is a god in this world.

Under the influence of Herald, the god of civilization and history, all races with civilization can understand the universal script of their civilization from birth.

Of course, I can only understand it, but I can't write it.

In short, the predecessor relied on his self-taught pickpocketing skills to survive in Shuangluo City.

Until last month, in fact, it was yesterday afternoon. The time calculation should be correct. After all, she didn't know how long she had been unconscious.

When the predecessor was pickpocketing, he was discovered due to a mistake. He had no choice but to throw away his wallet to attract attention, and then used the complex terrain in the alley to get rid of the other party.

However, on the way to escape, she actually met the murderer of the mummy serial murder case in the newspaper!
  It was a woman wearing a dark red leather hood. My predecessor witnessed her biting the neck of an alcoholic and sucking him into a mummy.

What impressed her the most was that the woman's eyes were always emitting a scarlet light when she was sucking blood.

At that time, her hands and feet were frightened and she ran out of the alley without looking back. However, before she could take a few steps, she suddenly felt a cramping pain in her heart, and then she lost consciousness.

What happened next was that she time-traveled into this body.

"Is that a vampire?" Yun Mu recalled the memory of his predecessor.

Things like time travel can happen, and there are gods in this world, so it doesn't seem strange that there is a vampire who can suck blood.

And when the predecessor saw the appearance of that vampire, it was inevitable that he would silence him.

As for angina?

The predecessor had lived for so many years without any heart problems. It must have been the woman with the scarlet eyes.

The question now is, if the vampire with supernatural powers knew that she was not dead, would he come to kill her?

She couldn't help but shudder when she thought of the memory of the other party sucking people into mummies.

Speaking of mummies, if her memory serves her right
  Yun Mu turned around and looked deeper into the alley. On the dark, snow-covered ground, there seemed to be a vague outline of some kind of creature.

She bravely took two steps deeper into the alley, and soon, under the moonlight, a shriveled corpse with a pale face and scarlet spots all over her body was reflected in her eyes.

However, what made her almost stop breathing was that the corpse covered in scarlet spots suddenly twisted and stood up when she got closer!
