Summary:

Jing Yuan transmigrates to the world of "Ling Cage" and obtains the Devouring Source Essence to Become Stronger System, rapidly rising to prominence with his mental power.

As the deputy captain of the Hunters, he entered the Dawn Hall, slept in Jingnan, protected Mark Ranbing, took the Lighthouse to Dragonbone Village, forced Morgan to abdicate, killed Charles, destroyed the Lord of Light and Shadow, and instantly killed a King-level being...

Chapter 1 Wanting to impose a crime

Lighthouse, an open space in the Shangmin District, a fit young man is doing push-ups.

"98! 99! 100!"

"Finish!"

With a push of his hands, the young man lightly leaped up from the ground.

These 100 push-ups are a piece of cake for him now.

"Next up are 100 sit-ups!"

He then lay down on the ground and started doing sit-ups.

"1, 2, 3..."

Just as easily! After all, he's been training like this for three years now!

The young man's name was Jing Yuan. Eighteen years ago, he traveled to this world.

After his memories returned, he compared various pieces of information about this world, especially the fact that he lived in a lighthouse in the sky. He became convinced that this was the world of the anime "Ling Cage".

At that time, Jingyuan felt utterly hopeless.

Ling Cage is a post-apocalyptic wasteland where the entire world is occupied by the Mana ecosystem and the ground is full of Devouring Beasts. The surviving humans can only struggle to survive on the Lighthouse.

Not only are supplies scarce on the lighthouse, but the hierarchy is also very strict, making life there extremely oppressive.

Although Jing Yuan knew that there was still Dragon Bone Village on the surface, led by Bai Yuekui, he was an ordinary person and didn't even have the right to go down to the surface, let alone go to find Dragon Bone Village.

Fortunately, after the three laws were promulgated, Jing Yuan obtained the status of an upper-class citizen, which made his life not so bad.

But they only live slightly better than ordinary people.

Among the upper class, he was also from the lower class.

For Jingyuan, whether he was from the lower class or not was not important, since he had been a beast of burden in his previous life anyway.

In this post-apocalyptic world, survival is the most important thing.

Although Jingyuan hadn't seen the ending of the lighthouse in his previous life, he could guess that a lighthouse couldn't stay in the sky forever.

Even if the lighthouse doesn't crash, it will be destroyed once the Devouring Beasts on the ground evolve the ability to fly.

Thinking about all this, Jingyuan lost all motivation to live.

However, things took a turn for the better three years ago.

Three years ago, Jingyuan awakened a system cheat.

系统要求他每天完成100个俯卧撑、100个仰卧起坐、100个深蹲和10公里长跑，并坚持1080天。

Once the goal is achieved, the talent will be unlocked.

When Jing Yuan first saw the system requirements, he didn't think much of it, but with the mindset that "something is better than nothing," he still complied.

After persisting for a few days, push-ups, sit-ups, and squats were all easy to complete, but the 10-kilometer run took time.

Just when Jingyuan was about to give up, he suddenly realized that this training method was Saitama's training method!

Saitama became invincible after three years of training!

1080 days, which is almost three years!

Jingyuan believed at the time that a miracle would happen in 1080 days.

Who cares about the Devouring Beasts then? It'll just be a matter of one punch, right?

If one punch isn't enough, then throw a few more!

It was his hope for the future that kept Jingyuan going.

"Good! 100!"

Push-ups (100/100)

Sit-ups (100/100)

Squats (100/100)

Running (10km/10km)

[Duration (1077 days/1080 days)]

Seeing the pop-up message, Jingyuan confirmed that he had achieved his goal for the day.

"Three more days!"

Jingyuan was in a good mood at the moment. After finishing his exercise, he quickly ran to school.

Today is an important day.

Jingyuan and his fellow trainees, now eighteen, will be assigned to various roles within the Lighthouse.

Lighthouses don't support idlers.

As long as the common people have the ability to work, they will be assigned to work. The upper class is a little better off; they study together until they are eighteen years old before being assigned to various professions.

If there is a shortage of staff, children as young as fifteen or sixteen will also be assigned.

Previously, the Wilderness Hunters suffered heavy casualties, so many people were transferred from the school to join them.

Jingyuan was still young at the time and thus escaped this batch.

The hunters need to go down to the ground, which is life-threatening. Many of the trainees in the same batch do not want to be taken away by the hunters.

Jing Yuan didn't care; he had always wanted to join the Wilderness Hunters anyway.

As long as you can complete the training check-in and activate your talent, you have absolutely nothing to fear from those Devouring Beasts.

If we find Bai Yuekui and the others, we can solve the mystery of Mana's ecology if we have the chance. If not... living in Dragon Bone Village is better than living in Lighthouse.

Upon arriving at the classroom, all the students in the same batch were already seated.

Jingyuan was the last person to arrive.

Standing on the stage was Instructor Elon, who, as the school's head, only appeared for major events.

"Young men!" Instructor Elon clapped his hands and said, "You are eighteen years old now, which is a sign of adulthood in the Old World. From today onwards, you will graduate from here and go to various positions in the Lighthouse to make your own contributions."

"The choices you make next will affect your future, so please think carefully before you fill them out."

A female teacher distributed a form to each student.

Elon continued, "You can fill out three applications, and we will review them based on your performance. If you pass the review, you will go to your first-choice department for an assessment. If you pass the assessment, you will be hired. If you don't pass, you can take the assessment for your second-choice department, and so on. If you fail the assessment for all three choices, then you will have to wait for an assignment. Do you understand?"

"I understand!"

Jingyuan picked up a pen and wrote the words "Hunter" on the volunteer application form.

He only wrote down one application and was confident that he would be accepted.

After three years of training, even without awakening his talent, his physical condition was still excellent.

Besides, being a hunter isn't exactly a lucrative job. People with connections avoid it like the plague, so the competition is minimal.

Jingyuan filled out the form and handed it to Instructor Elon.

Elon glanced at the form and said with some satisfaction, "Very good!"

One by one, the trainees came up to hand in their registration forms.

Just then, a group of uninvited guests walked in.

The newcomer was Ned, the Inspector of the Light and Shadow Society, followed by four or five priests.

When Elon saw Ned approaching, he had a bad feeling, but he still smiled and asked, "Ned, why aren't you with the Society of Light and Shadow? What are you doing here?"

“Instructor Elon, some people are discussing the Three Laws in private and spreading the idea that ‘humans should have emotions.’” Ned narrowed his eyes as he looked at Elon. “Instructor Elon should know what kind of crime that is!”

Elon stepped forward and asked, "Who?"

Ned gave a signal, and the priests behind him rushed forward to grab the man.

The person they arrested was Jing Yuan!

"Let me go!" Jing Yuan struggled free from the hands of the priests.

Instructor Elon immediately reprimanded, "Jingyuan, did you say those things?"

"I don't!"

Jing Yuan was, after all, a transmigrator carrying memories of his previous life, so he disliked the Lighthouse's system because it was inhumane. He also disliked the Light and Shadow Society because it was full of nonsense.

But Jingyuan kept these feelings of dissatisfaction buried in his heart.
