Save the simulator and make Sarkaz great again!

Author: Koss

Summary:

[Multiple female protagonists + wearing clothes + simulator + Gillette's steamed bean curd (laughs)]

Shen Lin accidentally bound to a girl-saving simulator, and he could get rewards as long as he saved the girl in the simulation.

Shen Lin felt that he might be able to lie down, but it was unlikely that he could do so.

I heard that some people in this land are singing the praises of suffering?

Shen Lin:?

I heard that someone is maliciously withholding wages and workers have no way to collect the debt?

Shen Lin: ...

I heard that someone disrupted the market order and bread was unsalable?

Shen Lin: Quack! I just want everyone to have milk and bread. Why are you insects trying so hard to get me involved? You are so disloyal, unjust, unkind, and unfilial!

He said he was fed up with the red tape.

Kill kill kill kill kill kill!

P.S.: The rescue simulator encounters a host with an unbelievable understanding that is as strong as a monster, and no amount of effort can defeat him.

Kill that Sarkaz

Chapter 1 Girl Rescue Simulator

[Buzz...Buzz—Your Girl Rescue Simulator has been successfully installed. The host can view details via the system panel. To reject the message, please reply with "HD".]

"..."

The small room exudes warmth and coziness. Soft lighting shines on the beige walls, as if draping the room in a hazy veil.

At a simply decorated desk, a young man, drowsy from staying up late, heard a voice echoing in his mind. He subconsciously picked up his phone and opened it, only to find that there were no message notifications.

Shen Lin tilted his head, subconsciously checking his surroundings to make sure it wasn't a prank.

He has had similar experiences of being pranked by his best friend, and as someone who has been through many battles, he can now maintain a calm and composed demeanor when faced with such situations.

After all, he didn't want to be caught on camera by some random act and then have it uploaded to some website and become a social media addict the next day.

After some fiddling, he finally confirmed that the sound he had just heard was not a hallucination.

Could it be that……

Shen Lin had an idea and tried to bring up the simulator panel that had finished loading.

"But then again, I never thought that an ordinary person like me could also get a cheat code..."

He muttered to himself, seemingly recalling the past, and then he sighed softly.

He was just an ordinary office worker, working a job that was supposed to be a 9-to-5 job, but in reality, he was forced to voluntarily work 996 overtime every week.

He thought he would live a peaceful and uneventful life, but fate played another cruel joke on him.

【Ding Yi Yi】

[Congratulations, host, you have successfully activated the Girl Rescue Simulator. This simulator will fully assist you in experiencing the lives of various down-on-their-luck girls.]

Once the simulation begins, the host's consciousness will be projected into the simulated world.

At the end of each simulation, rewards will be distributed based on how engaging the host's simulated life was.

[Current number of simulations: 1]

Shen Lin's attention was completely drawn to the suddenly appearing virtual panel.

"Oh wow? A girl rescue simulator, that sounds really exciting."

"Saving various down-on-their-luck girls...does that mean there's more than one girl who needs saving?"

He scratched his chin, sensing that the task seemed a bit tricky.

At this moment, the words "Start Simulation" below the simulator were flashing brightly, and Shen Lin had a feeling that this small workshop was using too much material.

If you changed the words "Start Simulation" to "Share with friends to start immediately" or "Watch a 30-second ad to start immediately," it would sound much better.

Shen Lin remained silent for a while, making sure he hadn't missed any part of the system introduction before pressing the button.

After all, he was also very curious about what this girl rescue simulator was like.

[Simulated Startup 1]

[Worldline projection in progress]

[A simulated world detected: Arknights]

[Talent generation complete. Please select four talents as your initial character talents in your first simulated life.]

Talent levels are ranked as follows: Green, Blue, Purple, Pink, Gold.

[Note: If the evolution conditions of a talent are met during the simulation, the evolved talent will have the same effects as the original talent.]

When a green talent evolves into a blue talent, the green talent disappears, and the blue talent, in addition to its own effects, also includes the effects of the green talent.

"Huh? Arknights world simulation?"

Upon seeing this, Shen Lin, who had once gathered the power of the three phases, was secretly startled.

"Can't even a criminal record related to anime and manga be hidden now?"

Shen Lin suppressed the strange feeling in his heart and continued to look at the virtual screen.

[Green Talent: Fitness Coach]: Your strength has increased slightly, and you have a well-proportioned physique and well-developed muscles.

[Blue Talent: Artistic Talent]: You possess innate artistic talent, and your thoughts and ideas can be expressed very smoothly through art. You are a born artist.

[Blue Talent: Charm Aura]: Slightly increases your charm attribute, improving the first impression other people have of you. Now you are more likely to gain favor from other units.

[Green Talent: The Art of Language]: Your affability has slightly improved when communicating with other people, and you are now more likely to gain their favor during conversations.

[Purple Talent: Originium Master]: Your Originium talent is innate, and your mastery of Originium arts is higher than that of the average race. However, due to your affinity for Originium, you are much more likely to suffer from Oripathy than ordinary people, and the severity of the Oripathy you suffer from is also higher.

[Golden Talent: Living Up to Expectations]: Your affinity is slightly increased. When other people have positive expectations of you, your own ability value will increase according to their expectations. The extent of the increase in ability value is related to the number of people who have expectations and the strength of those expectations.

"If talent can evolve, does that mean the initial talent quality isn't the most crucial factor, but rather which combination makes it easier to complete the task?"

Shen Lin's gaze swept back and forth between the golden and purple talents, which were among the higher-level talents that had been refreshed in this group.

[Golden Talent: Living Up to Expectations] is a must-have talent for Shen Lin because it offers the best value for money compared to other talents.

But... this purple talent...

Shen Lin finally managed to shift his gaze away from the [Purple Talent: Originium Master], which was indeed a difficult choice for him. The bonuses provided by this talent were tempting, but its side effects could not be ignored.

There are gains and losses; he must weigh the pros and cons.

The world he is heading to is Arknights, and his mission is to save a girl in distress.

In other words, the best way to complete the mission is to gain a certain social status that can provide them with social protection, and they must also try to avoid being identified as infected.

Because in the Terra continent of Arknights, being an infected person means stagnation in social development and deprivation of social human rights in some areas.

And there's also the most important point...

Shen Lin's gaze fell on the only golden talent among all the talents. Just based on its effect, it was enough to make all the other talents support it.

In the end, Shen Lin chose the [Blue Talent: Charm Aura], [Blue Talent: Artistic Talent], [Green Talent: The Art of Language], and the only [Gold Talent: Living Up to Expectations].

To be more stable, he chose the most stable playing style.

In Shen Lin's plan, no matter where he was born, he could go to Letania to develop his artistic talents. With his other talents, he could improve his interpersonal skills and gain social status.

Once he has accumulated a certain amount of wealth and social resources, he can then carry out his mission to save the girl in a targeted manner.

The weak save themselves, but the strong can save others.

[Host has completed talent selection. Now, a race will be randomly selected for the host.]

Looking at the large disc that appeared before him, Shen Lin felt a sense of foreboding.

"Huh? The race is randomly selected?"

"Hiss—if this talent is to be extracted, as long as it's not a Sarkaz, it doesn't matter what race it is... right?"

One characteristic of the Sarkaz race is that almost everyone is a master of Originium, but they are also basically all sufferers of Oripathy. Those with low crystallinity are too embarrassed to speak loudly.

However, each race only occupies a small portion of the disc, so accurately drawing a specific race is not an easy task.

As Shen Lin watched the rapidly spinning wheel, he glanced at it and discovered that it not only included ordinary races, but also some divine beings.

Before Shen Lintu's heartbeat, as the drumbeats resonated, the roulette wheel turned like the gears of fate, its pointer slowing down.

"WOW! The Bloodline of the Year Phase? Possessing partial authority, getting this will take us straight to the top."

The pointer didn't stop completely after Shen Lin spoke, but instead moved forward a little like a snail.

"Ah... Draco is fine too. He has the right to inherit the Victorian throne, he's definitely a Celestial Dragon. He won't die unless he courts death."

With a great sense of relief, Shen Lin's face showed a relaxed smile.

Although I was a little disappointed that I didn't get the power of authority, the Drak are a renowned race after all, so it's acceptable overall.

Just as it was about to stop, the pointer seemed to have used up its last bit of power and moved to the middle between the Drak race and the next race.

The result of this random draw is: Sarkaz.

[Host, the simulation is about to begin. Have a pleasant simulation! Ciallo(∠?ω<）⌒☆]

"Great, it's... a ghost!!"

"System, thank you so much! I'll make you fly!"

P.S.: New author, new book, thank you all for your support!

Chapter Two: The Art Exam, and Then Failing.

[Host's race detected as Sarkaz (Banshee), automatically learned Sarkaz language]

[Simulation officially begins]

A blinding white light suddenly burst forth before my eyes, and my consciousness detached and rose, drifting aimlessly towards an unknown and mysterious boundary.

You have traveled to the continent of Terra. You feel that you are in peak condition compared to ever before, and you suspect this is the result of a fusion of your talents. You are full of confidence in the future.

Just as you were full of hope and ready to move forward, reality dealt you a heavy blow. You found yourself in a desolate and chaotic place. Through inquiries with your people, you learned that you were in Kazdel, the homeland of the Sarkaz.

This place is engulfed in war and chaos; you must find a safe haven before making any further plans.

[You are inherently a person who is hard to dislike. Faced with the Sarkaz mercenaries' suspicious attitude, you successfully won their trust with your silver tongue.]

The other person took you to the settlement closest to your location and warmly introduced you to the local situation, giving you a general understanding of the area.

To make a living, you inquired about jobs from the locals, and thanks to your outstanding charm, many were willing to help you.

You've found the largest mine here and successfully become a proud miner, because it's the only profession with low barriers to entry.

You never imagined that what used to be a 996 work schedule would become a blessing here, but looking at the Sarkaz working so hard around you, you can only silently swing your pickaxe.

[During your work, you didn't stop learning about art. Although you are of Sarkaz race, your unique artistic talent still came to the fore.]

Whether it's painting or playing the piano, you have your own unique insights during the learning process, and your progress in art is rapid.

After months of intense work, you quit your job, used your earnings to buy a guitar, and started trying your hand at performing in town.

[This process went surprisingly smoothly. By adapting songs from your past life and performing for money, coupled with the succubus's natural singing voice, you quickly gained a large following.]

The manager of a Sarkaz beer hall noticed your talent and invited you to be his resident singer, promising a fixed monthly salary and all-inclusive room and board.

In your new work environment, your talents are truly blossoming. The beer hall is packed every day because of you, and you've made many Sarkaz friends.

Through their words, you gradually learn what kind of country Kazdel is: poor, backward, divided... and death is a constant occurrence.

You'll often see Sarkaz giving speeches on the streets; they resent the foreign invaders, and they hate those who made Kazdel what it is.

In Kazdel, almost no Sarkaz have hope for the future.
