Cut off my way home? You'll sacrifice the entire other world in return!

Li Fan felt that he had lost all feeling in his body.

That's numbness from overload.

Devouring the Heavenly Dao, sacrificing millions of dead souls, tearing apart the barriers between planes... This series of operations has almost exhausted all his resources, even with his current plane devourer physique.

But he doesn't care.

Because he knew the finish line was just ahead.

"Braised pork belly..."

Li Fan's consciousness was somewhat blurred, and he muttered unconsciously.

"Add more sugar, less ginger..."

"Is Dad's secret stash of money still under the shoe insole? I'll have to tell Mom when we get back..."

"I haven't logged into that Steam account for ten years, I wonder if the account still exists..."

His strong desire to go home led him through the doorway.

I don't know how much time has passed.

A suction force came from it.

That grounded, weightless feeling returned to my body.

puff.

Li Fan fell to the ground.

The ground was so hard it hurt.

But he smiled.

Because this is the tactile sensation of a physical object.

It is neither the white jade of the void nor the divine realm, nor the obsidian of the Demon King's castle.

Is this soil and... cement?

Li Fan lay on the ground, greedily inhaling the first breath of air.

"Cough cough cough cough!!!"

A violent coughing fit suddenly broke out.

The air... something's not right.

It was dry and pungent, with a strong smell of rust and burnt metal, as well as a kind of radioactive dust that made his skin sting slightly.

"Is the smog really that bad?"

Li Fan coughed and chuckled self-deprecatingly.

"It seems that environmental remediation efforts have failed after ten years of absence."

He propped himself up and slowly got to his feet.

My body is very heavy.

The energy within his body was nearly depleted, and even the power of the Heavenly Dao's origin had been completely consumed during the recent transmigration.

He is now as weak as an ordinary person.

But he doesn't care.

It doesn't matter whether I have the strength or not, as long as I'm home.

He just wanted to be an ordinary person, live a carefree life, and take care of his parents in their old age.

"let me see….....…"

Li Fan closed his eyes and took a deep breath (though it made him choke), a hopeful smile on his face.

"Let me see which city I've landed in?"

Is it the familiar CBD? Or my hometown, a small county town?

"I hope to see that Shaxian snack shop at that intersection."

He slowly opened his eyes.

It catches the eye.

Devastated.

Li Fan's smile froze.

It will gradually disappear.

In the end, it became a blank page.

There are no skyscrapers or bustling traffic.

There are no neon lights, no roadside trees, and no zebra crossings.

There's only garbage.

Endless garbage.

He was standing on a mountain of garbage made of twisted pipes of rusted metal and piles of unidentified black slag.

Looking around, the whole world is in this grayish-yellow hue.

In the distance, the outline of a city appears as if it were in ruins.

Those buildings are taller than any skyscraper on Earth.

But they are twisted and tilted.

Some are only half left, revealing the dense metal skeleton inside.

Some looked as if they had been bitten by something, with eerie blue sparks flickering at the broken edges.

Metal pipes extend and wrap around these ruined buildings.

It's very windy.

The dust and plastic fragments kicked up from the ground stung my face.

There was no fragrance of flowers or food in the wind.

It only smelled of engine oil, rotten smells, and a nauseating chemical smell.

"this….....…"

Li Fan opened his mouth.

His voice was a little hoarse.

"Where...is this?"

He subconsciously looked up at the sky.

Perhaps a nuclear war has broken out on Earth?

Perhaps he traveled to a post-apocalyptic Earth several hundred years in the future?

As long as he's still on Earth and can find people, he'd accept it even if it's a wasteland.

But the moment he saw the sky clearly.

His last shred of hope was completely shattered.

The sky was dark red.

And in the gaps in the clouds.

The moon hangs in the sky.

Not one.

There are two.

Two moons emitting an eerie purple light.

They stood on the left and right, like the eyes of two demons gazing upon this wasteland.

"Two...moons?"

Li Fan looked at the two purple moons.

My body began to tremble.

It's not because of the cold.

It's because of anger.

An intense rage that makes one want to kill.

He gave it his all.

He sacrificed the entire other world.

He devoured the Heavenly Dao.

He caused the souls of millions to scatter and vanish.

It's all for the sake of getting a ticket home.

result.

Did you get on the wrong bus?

"What a joke..."

Li Fan lowered his head and gripped his hair tightly with both hands.

"What a joke!!!"

He punched the pile of garbage next to him.

boom!

Although his energy was depleted, his body, forged through countless trials, remained incredibly strong.

This punch pierced right through a large, rusty steel plate.

Blood flowed from the back of his hand because he had given up defending himself.

It hurts.

But the pain told him that this was not a dream.

This is reality.

A fucking absurd reality.

"Coordinates... are the coordinates incorrect?"

Li Fan forced himself to calm down.

Whatever the reason.

There is only one result.

he's lost.

Lost in the cracks between countless worlds, they fell into a place that seemed even worse than the previous world.

Fortunately, there was an anchor point left from the previous world.

"roar."

A deep roar came from afar.

The ground trembled slightly.

Li Fan raised his head.

In the shadow of ruins a few kilometers away.

A colossal object is moving.

That's not a living thing.

Or rather, it is not a purely biological organism.

It was a monster that looked like a lizard.

Its body length exceeds fifty meters.

Its body is mostly made of rusted metal, with various gears, pistons, and hydraulic rods exposed.

It carried a huge exhaust pipe on its back, still emitting black smoke.

Its limbs are a combination of tracks and mechanical claws.

And its head.

It is a metal jaw equipped with a searchlight and a meat grinder.

The searchlight was emitting a red glow, scanning the surroundings.

"Mechanical... monster?"

Li Fan narrowed his eyes.

The art style of this world is completely different from the previous sword and magic games.

Is this from the technology side?

Or is it post-apocalyptic punk?

The mechanical lizard seemed to have smelled something.

Its metal head turned around.

The red searchlight beam instantly locked onto Li Fan at the top of the garbage mountain.

"drop"

"A high-energy biological reaction has been discovered."

"Identifying high-quality organic fuels."

"To carry out predation."

The monster actually emitted a synthesized electronic sound.

Followed by.

Rumble!

The mechanical lizard moved.

Its tracks spun rapidly, kicking up clouds of dust as it charged toward Li Fan.

It was extremely fast and had an astonishing momentum.

Wherever it goes, garbage mountains are easily crushed, and hard clods of earth are ground to dust by its meat grinder-like mouth.

Li Fan stood still, watching the charging steel behemoth.

His body is now completely empty.

There is no magic.

Even the system is playing dead.

But he didn't run.

He simply shook the blood off his hands.

His eyes turned extremely cold.

"You were robbed right after landing?"

Li Fan twitched the corner of his mouth.

"Perfect."

"I'm so angry right now, and I have nowhere to vent it."

"No matter what kind of junk you are."

"Since it's delivered right to our doorstep..."

Li Fan clenched his fist.

"Then be my punching bag."
