Chapter 1 Swallowing the Starry Sky? Fishing makes the system stronger

"Wow—"

"唳唳——"

The chirping of birds that filled the sky seemed to ring in my ears.

Jiang Lan woke up instantly and turned to look at the source of the sound.

The next second, his eyes widened and he stared out the window blankly.

Outside was a large bird with a wingspan of tens of meters. It was speeding across the street, and its wings were flapping like a terrifying hurricane.

On both sides of the road, the glass crackled and shattered, and the cars parked on the ground were also lifted up by the hurricane, and then smashed to the ground with a dull thud.

"Aren't I reading a novel at home? What's going on?"

Jiang Lan looked confused, sat up from the bed and stared out the window.

The next moment, a sharp pain suddenly entered his mind.

Under the severe pain, he clutched the sheets beside him, and a low hum escaped from his throat.

The pain came and went quickly, disappearing without a trace after a while.

In his mind, there is an extra complex memory that does not belong to him.

Monsters, RR virus, extreme martial arts gym, thunder and lightning martial arts gym...

"This is...a world that swallows the stars?"

Jiang Lan's eyes were surprised. He never thought that time travel would happen to him one day.

After sorting out his thoughts, he remembered what happened in his previous life.

In his memory, he was enjoying reading a novel at home, but suddenly a thunder exploded in the clear sky outside, and it hit him by accident.

What's even more coincidental is that he was immediately killed by him!

After waiting for a while, he finally accepted the fact that he had traveled through time.

Just make peace with what you have come to, and Jiang Lan sorted out the memory of the original owner of the body.

Soon, he frowned deeply.

Trouble.

The original owner's name was the same as his, Jiang Lan.

Speaking of which, the original owner of this body was quite miserable. Both his parents died when he was young. Without the help of relief funds, he would never have lived to such an old age.

But that small amount of relief money was just a drop in the bucket for a young man who was growing up. He couldn't even guarantee the most basic three meals a day, let alone other things.

So the original owner actually suffered from long-term malnutrition and starved to death?

"Good guy, I've seen a lot of misfortunes, but this is the first time I've seen such misfortune..."

After complaining, the expression on Jiang Lan's face suddenly froze.

Since the original owner could starve to death, wouldn't he, an outsider who had just arrived here, die faster?

"I'm really impressed..."

Jiang Lan closed her eyes in pain and began to think about how to survive in this fucked up world.

Soon, he had an idea in mind.

Since this is a world that swallows stars, as long as he can pass the quasi-warrior assessment and become a warrior, the current crisis can be easily solved.

Not only can he live in a luxurious residence assigned by the martial arts school, but he can also receive a fixed salary.

Then the problem comes again. In Jiang Lan's memory, although this body infected with the RR virus is much stronger than ordinary people in the previous life, it is still far from the standard to pass the warrior examination.

To pass the assessment of a quasi-martial artist, the required strength threshold is 900 kilograms, and the speed needs to be 25 meters per second, which is four seconds per meters.

Jiang Lan glanced at the calendar on the table and found that tomorrow was the 1st, which happened to be the day when the extreme martial arts gym started the assessment for prospective martial artists.

If you miss tomorrow, you will have to wait until next month to take the exam.

And now, Jiang Lan is penniless again. He can barely survive even three days, let alone next month.

At this moment, a mechanical beep suddenly sounded in Jiang Lan's ears.

[Congratulations to the host, traveling through the world of Devouring Starry Sky, the fishing system of the heavens is being bound. 】

[System binding is successful, congratulations to the host for getting newbie benefits: fishing three times at random levels. Do you want to use it? 】

His thoughts were interrupted, but Jiang Lan didn't care at all. Instead, his eyes widened with excitement on his face.

"I just said...since you are a time traveler, you should have some benefits."

As the system's beep ended, another unfamiliar memory flooded into Jiang Lan's mind, allowing him to understand the function of this fishing system.

The All-Heavens Fishing System, as the name suggests, can fish for elixirs, exercises, magic weapons, physical constitutions, etc. in all the heavens and all realms.

Treasures are divided into nine levels, from bottom to top: bronze, silver, gold, platinum, diamond, epic, myth, immortal, avenue, and chaos.

As the host of the system, Jiang Lan can have one bronze-level fishing opportunity every day, which can be saved if not used. Every three fishing opportunities can be combined into a higher-level fishing opportunity.

In other words, if you don’t use fishing opportunities, you can do a silver-level fishing in 3 days, gold in 9 days, platinum in 27 days, and diamond in 81 days... If you want to do a chaos-level fishing, you need to save enough 19683 days.

After absorbing the information provided by the system, Jiang Lan excitedly said:

"Use random fishing!"

【Fishing in progress...】

[Congratulations to the host, you have obtained a silver-level item: Type A2 Genetic Modification Potion. 】

As the system sound ended, Jiang Lan also understood the effect of this genetic modification potion.

As long as the user takes the potion, the user's physical fitness, strength, speed, and neurological response ability can be greatly improved.

It just so happens that the last three points are all abilities that Jiang Lan urgently needs right now.

There was no rush to take the potion, Jiang Lan's eyes showed excitement, "Continue fishing!"

He wanted to see what other surprises this system could bring him.

【Fishing in progress...】

[Congratulations to the host, for obtaining the platinum-level skill: Starry Sky Body Forging Technique. 】

Memories flooded into his mind like a tide, and the next moment Jiang Lan understood the starry sky body-building method.

This method can nourish the body with the power of the stars. The improvement brought about by the initial practice is not big, but more about laying a good foundation for the body.

But once your physical fitness reaches a certain level, the improvement brought about by the star training method is particularly terrifying. When you practice it to perfection, you can even shake the planet with your physical strength!

Jiang Lan's face was filled with joy.

I have to say, this golden finger is really awesome!

He didn't use up his last fishing opportunity, and what he got now was enough for him to pass tomorrow's assessment.

As for fishing, it won’t be too late after the assessment is over.

Jiang Lan must make full use of every minute now and make sure that tomorrow's assessment is flawless.

Pulling out the stopper of the genetic potion, Jiang Lan raised his head and drank it.

The next moment, severe pain swept through Jiang Lan's body, and large beads of sweat emerged from Jiang Lan's body, which was then evaporated by the frighteningly high body temperature.

Cells, bones, muscles, nerves... everything is being broken up and reorganized.

His whole body was like a cooked shrimp, and the skin on his body turned a strange red color.

"Damn it, didn't I promise there would be no side effects!"

Jiang Lan complained at the end, and then his consciousness completely fell into darkness.
