Reborn as the Darling of the Delta.

"Hey kid, calm down. I'm not your enemy. What's wrong with you?"

After hearing the shield bearer's words, Zhang Hao's eyes gradually regained their light. His bright red pupils slowly dimmed and returned to their original black. As if he had just woken up, he asked the shield bearer:

"What did you say, brother? I killed all of these people?"

These words stunned the shieldbearer, who nodded and said...

"Why would I need to lie to you? Do you think I have any fighting ability looking like this? You were like a completely different person back then."

Hearing this, Zhang Hao was also stunned.

(?? o_o)?

But suddenly, a wave of dizziness hit him, and Zhang Hao could only sigh inwardly at his weak body before collapsing, unable to wake up no matter how loudly Asara's shield soldier shouted.

Chapter 3: Picked up by Wheat Mouse

Just as Asara's shield soldier was about to drag himself over to check on Zhang Hao's condition, three laser beams struck him.

"Don't move. Put your hands up. This is GTI Global Emergency Operations. We mean no harm. Put down your weapons. We need to check on the wounded."

The speaker, a man with a thick beard and around 28 years old, addressed Asara's shield-bearer.

"Hmph, GTI, I don't believe you. All you want is the Mandel brick developed by Hafk."

Asara's shieldbearer snorted coldly, showing no kindness to these men.

“Red Wolf, the person lying over there looks like he’s from China. I want to go take a look.”

At this moment, a woman with short silver hair, a graceful figure, and a great physique spoke up from behind the man.

"Okay, but Mai Xiaowen, you need to be careful."

The bearded man called Red Wolf nodded. The woman gracefully walked towards Zhang Hao, knelt down, and carefully examined his injuries.

"His breathing is relatively stable; he appears to be unconscious for now."

The woman turned to the red wolf and spoke. Asara, the shieldbearer, remained somewhat wary upon seeing this.

"Don't even think about taking this opportunity to do anything to him."

Red Wolf waved his hand: "Don't worry, we GTI won't harm innocent Chinese people. Saving him won't do us any harm. Besides, our goal is to protect peace. Do you have better technology here to treat him than we do?"

"Quick, Luna, come and help. There's a stretcher here. Let's carry him back to headquarters."

Just as they were about to lift Zhang Hao onto the stretcher, a commotion suddenly arose in the distance, as if a large group of unidentified forces were heading their way. Red Wolf frowned and shouted, "Never mind that for now, take the wounded and get out of here. We'll deal with the rest back at base!" The group quickly sprang into action, carrying Zhang Hao, and hurriedly left the scene under the complex gazes of Asara's shield soldiers.

Shortly after the GTI members left, Said arrived with his guards. When they arrived, they found the entire camp lying in ruins, with the bodies of Asara soldiers and Hafk soldiers among the dead.

"Captain Said!" Asara, the shieldbearer, called out excitedly upon seeing Said.

"Huh? There are still survivors?"

Saeed turned his head and quickly walked to Asara's shield-bearer's side, asking urgently.

"What's going on? Where are the others?"

Asara, the shieldbearer, struggled to sit up, panting heavily, and said...

"It was Hafk's men. They launched a surprise attack on us. I wanted to tell you earlier that I found a Chinese man who slaughtered all of Hafk's soldiers, but then he passed out."

"And where are they now?"

Said quickly asked, "If someone with such strength were to join Asara, the chances of counterattacking Hafk would be even greater."

"But the GTI people just came and took him away."

“GTI… their involvement has made things more complicated.”

He looked around at the ravaged battlefield. "Let's bury the dead first. They sacrificed themselves to liberate Asara. Asara will not forget them."

Meanwhile, at the space base, several high-ranking officials were watching a video of the machine gunner Hafk being killed by Zhang Hao.

"Dr. Rometheus, is this your research result? Why did this destructive killing weapon develop self-awareness without being equipped with a brain-computer interface? This is a company asset, and you've botched it."

A tall, thin, and wiry old woman questioned the man next to her, who was getting his glasses checked, in a mechanical voice.

“Demulan, it’s no use blaming me. I was only responsible for creating him with the best genes. We don’t know what will happen if the brain-computer interface is linked to him too early. He needs time to grow before he can accept this newly developed brain-computer interface. If it is implanted prematurely as you said, and he dies, can you afford that loss? Now that he has self-awareness, he is still alive, so we have a chance to catch him and implant the brain-computer interface.”

"Hmph, now that they've run off to Asara, there's no need to reason with them anymore. It's time to let them know that Hafk is not someone to be trifled with."

The camera pans to Zhang Hao, who is now staring directly at him.

"He's so young, such a cute kid. He's doing just fine in China, so why is he in Asara? Hey, Luna, look, his hair is white just like mine!"

While looking at Zhang Hao's face, Mai Xiaowen reached out and touched Zhang Hao's white hair.

"Let's go back to the Special Operations Department and have the bee doctor check his condition."

Red Wolf walked in front, surveying the surroundings as he spoke.

"We're almost at the evacuation point. Let me scan it with the probe arrow."

After Luna finished speaking, she drew her blue composite bow and fired an arrow that glowed red.

"No one is here, so it's safe to evacuate."

After Luna finished speaking, she and Mai Xiaowen quickened their pace and carried Zhang Hao to the evacuation point.

"It's nothing serious, just exhaustion. I passed out, but it's nothing serious."

When Zhang Hao opened his eyes again, he found himself lying on an operating table, with a European or American man suddenly leaning over next to him.

"Oh, you're awake. How are you feeling now? I've given you an injection."

Zhang Hao took a closer look and exclaimed, "Hey, isn't this Roy Smee, the character I love most when I'm running knife? Codename Bee Doctor?"

"Well, it's okay, but I still feel a bit weak."

"It's alright, it's normal. When you were brought here, you were unconscious due to exhaustion. You just need to rest for a few days," the bee doctor said.

"Hey little brother, where are you from? What's your name?"

Just then, Mai Xiaowen came bouncing over, staring at Zhang Hao with her big eyes.

"Um, my name is Zhang Hao. I actually have a genetic disease, and I was tricked by Hafk into coming to Asara..."

Just as Zhang Hao was using his previous excuse...

"Alright, the report from above has arrived. You yourself don't actually know how you got to Asara, right?"

At that moment, a tall Russian man walked over with a report in his hand, his blue eyes fixed on Zhang Hao.

"Um, well, actually I can explain it."

Upon seeing this massive figure, Zhang Hao immediately connected it to Alexei Petrov from the game. As a GTI instructor, he naturally had new information, and even he himself was completely baffled by his current body, wondering why the opposing team was wiped out after he lost consciousness for a moment.

"Satellite footage shows that you emerged from the Bakshibabel Tower and miraculously crossed the Longbow Valley. The last image of you was of you collapsing at the entrance of the Zero Dam substation. On the very day you escaped, the Hafk Corporation posted your photo on the dark web, with no other information except for the code name 'Zero.' They offered 5 million Hafk coins for you alive, so stop making up excuses."

After saying that, Shenlan continued to stare at Zhang Hao with his big eyes.

"ヾ(;?;Д;?;)ノ?"

Zhang Hao was also dumbfounded. "Damn, am I really that strong? I can run from the Tower of Babel to Dam Zero before collapsing. Am I Superman?" But facing the menacing Deep Blue, Zhang Hao knew that deception and trickery would probably not work.

“Okay, the moment I opened my eyes, I found myself at the entrance of the substation. My head was throbbing, but I clearly remembered my past memories, which were completely different from what you said. In my memory, I grew up in China. I have all my memories since I gained sentience, but I don’t know how I got to Asara.”

"Oh, alright, Deep Blue, don't put so much pressure on a child. Luna studied psychology too. Do you think this child is lying?"

Just as Deep Blue was about to continue asking questions, Bee Doctor stepped in to smooth things over. After all, in his eyes, Zhang Hao was his patient, and a weak little boy at that. In his country, a little boy like that would still be in school. Moreover, his young age reminded him of his most adorable daughter in the world.

“Deep Blue, he wasn’t lying.”

Luna had been watching Zhang Hao since he started speaking, and after hearing what the Bee Doctor said, she turned to Deep Blue and spoke.

"Oh, it seems there's something quite complicated going on. Alright, kid, these interrogations are necessary. Don't be upset about it. I also have to be responsible for everyone's safety. You can stay in the Special Operations Department for now. I will report your situation to my superiors and contact China as soon as possible."

After Shen Lan finished speaking, he patted Zhang Hao's head and turned to leave.

"Alright, little brother, look at your tattered clothes. Hmm, this is what I wear in the summer. You're a bit shorter than me, so just make do with this for now. When Weilong comes back, I'll ask him to buy you some clothes."

At this moment, Mai Xiaowen produced a white T-shirt and black tactical pants from somewhere and stuffed them directly into Zhang Hao's hands.

"Come on, I'll take you to the room I've arranged for you. You won't fit into those adult underwear anyway, so let's vacuum pack yours until they're dry."

Mai Xiaowen chuckled mischievously and pulled the dazed Zhang Hao to the room she had arranged for him.

Chapter 4 Brother Weilong

"Phew, taking a bath is the best thing ever. It feels like my soul is being elevated."

Zhang Hao lay in a bathtub and sighed contentedly. He was just an ordinary sophomore in college who suddenly died and transmigrated to this Delta world. It was only because he was relatively adaptable and naturally intelligent that he survived. Otherwise, he would probably have been killed in the first wave of questioning by Asara soldiers in this world.

After taking a shower, looking at the clean sheets on the bed and at the room that now belonged to him, Zhang Hao felt a sense of belonging to this world for the first time. Lying on the bed, Zhang Hao suddenly remembered his system, closed his eyes, and called out "System" in his mind.

"System? Are you there? Do you have your own consciousness?"

"Ding, host, this system is a helper to help you integrate into this world. Code name 9527. We have detected that you received a point a few hours ago. Would you like to participate in a lottery or purchase items from the store?"

The system gave a cold, impersonal reply.

"Huh? Where did these points come from? Did someone care about me while I was unconscious? 9527, can you tell me who gave me these points?"

"This system automatically turns on the blocking mode, otherwise the author could spend half a day just writing this, and besides, you don't want me nagging in your head every day, do you?"

"Um, okay, okay, let's open the store first and see if there's anything good."

As someone who guarantees a Red Wolf skin, Zhang Hao knows his lottery luck is so bad it would make even a dog sneeze twice before leaving.

"This system is currently at level one, and has level one purchase privileges in the in-game store."

As 9527 finished speaking, the classic online store interface appeared in Zhang Hao's mind, with a 300-point mark in the upper right corner.

"Let me see, uh, why are there so many bullets? 240 rounds of 9x19 for 10 points each, what's the use of this? I'd rather go find a bot with a knife. Level 3 armor, it can block 3 hits, uh, it doesn't seem to be of any use."

"This is a Level 1 privileged host in the mall. Before Level 3, the items provided are mostly from the Delta world. To become stronger, you need to continuously improve yourself, build good relationships with others to earn points, and upgrade the system to unlock higher privileges. At that time, the system will be able to bring you cutting-edge technology from other worlds."

"Alright, alright, then open the stat allocation interface and see if I can improve myself."
