An orange light flashed and Xiao Yi left D planet. After a long transmission, the black-haired youth once again set foot on the spotless translucent street of the Salvation Alliance Town.

System 2d14: [Lord Host! The host system sends feedback that because the mission time limit this time has already passed and the number of survivors is too small, the points will no longer be calculated according to the usual formula. Instead, there will be a one-time increase of 1 billion points as a reward! So, Lord Host now has 9.65526 billion points!] IBeECF

The joy of receiving points swept away the discomfort caused by the youth’s trypophobia. The black-haired youth happily said: “Go, let’s buy a house!”

Once again, he arrived at the Alliance Real Estate Centre on North Street in the small town. Seeing Xiao Yi, the blonde beauty in a silver uniform who served him last time seemed to have thought of something and her smile stiffened, but she quickly adjusted her mood and walked up to welcome him. Presumably, the embarrassing experience of assuming the youth’s rank by his serial number was still fresh in her memory. This time, the blonde beauty was very tactful and didn’t ask Xiao Yi to display his serial number. Instead, she smiled and said:

“This time, do you still want to look at the houses you saw last time? Shall I take you to the exclusive floor for A rank saviours?”

As a salesperson, the blonde beauty’s professionalism was still very high. She remembered Xiao Yi’s saviour rank after just one meeting. She obviously wanted to make up for her stupid mistake of treating the black-haired youth as a low level saviour last time. However…… Gxaz6o

The black-haired youth: “No need, thank you. I’m now SS ranked.”

Consequently, the blonde beauty’s professional smile once again stiffened on her face. A short time passed before she found back her voice: “Then shall I take you to the top floor lounge exclusive for SS and SSS rank saviours?”

The black-haired youth faintly smiled and didn’t mind the blonde beauty’s reaction: “I just want to buy a house with a garden. I didn’t see many houses like this on the street. You can just introduce those houses to me.”

The blonde beauty: “S-sir, houses with gardens are very difficult to sell so the price is very high, and for our Real Estate Centre, an unused house is a very big loss for us. Hence, these garden villas are usually all specially made to order for the high-level gods. As for readily-made garden villas, there is…… only one. The sale price is also quite high, at 8 billion points.”

No wonder she said so much. 10 billion points was the level of an SSS rank god. In the entire alliance, there were only 9 of these people.

Hearing that he was just able to buy it, the black-haired youth happily said: “Can you bring me on site to take a look?”

The blonde beauty: “O-okay.”

So, after looking around the site, the black-haired youth directly purchased this two story villa with a cosy garden. He happily sat on the bench in the garden and looked at his own little house. dv6NHP

Because no one had lived in this place for a long time, the only greenery in the entire garden was the lawn, which seemed a little lonely. However, the courtyard wall was composed of metal railings more than 4 metres high with green vines wrapped around it, forming an impenetrable screen that provides good privacy for the courtyard. Not long afterwards, the landscaping team from the Alliance Real Estate Centre came and only entered with the youth’s permission.

The youth looked at the portable terminal in his hand with keen interest. There were all kinds of rare flowers and trees inside, each of which was displayed using a holographic projection, showing off their lushness and beauty. It was just that the price was staggering. Any random flower costed hundreds of thousands and even millions of points. Even the cheapest tree was a staggering 5 million points!

After flipping through the catalogue with great enthusiasm, he returned the terminal to the landscaping team member. wlRTrW

“These flowers and tress are all rare species from various planets. Even outside the Salvation Alliance Town, each plant could also be sold at a sky-high price. So even though the price looks expensive, it is actually very reasonable. We also have a super gift pack for first time buyers, which includes 5 trees, 20 flowers and 20 herbs, as well as a 1000 square metre high-end lawn, for only 49.99 million points. Of course, these won’t do much in decorating your villa. You can choose a higher quality exclusive package for 888.88 million points…… However, we will charge an extra planting fee for each plant.”

The black-haired youth smiled: “Thank you. I have collected many precious plants from my mission worlds. Help me plant them according to the layout of the high-end exclusive package!”

Saying this, the black-haired youth took out nearly a hundred lush green trees and thousands of flowers from his space.

“O-okay!” The landscaping team stammered. They were simply dazzled by this local tyrant’s actions. Then, a dozen people started to get busy. 0IPNDq

Sitting on the bench, the black-haired youth happily watched as his dream house was gradually taking shape. He said to 2d14: “Look, now we finally have our own little house!”

System 2d14: [Lord Host! This house…… isn’t small at all, right?]

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

The black-haired youth: “Well it feels pretty small to me, but it’s very comfortable and warm!”

At this moment, the whispers of two landscaping workers who were planting flowers entered the youth’s ear: M9DKR8

“Say, how can there be saviours with so much money? This 9000 square metre garden is ranked 3rd in the entire alliance town!”

“Right! Even SSS rank gods would used their points on upgrading their own strength. They wouldn’t buy such an expensive house.”

“Ai, I have worked in the Salvation Alliance for hundreds of years, but I only need a small house that can fit myself to be content!”

“Right. Houses are used as a place to settle down. As long as I can live inside, then that’s all I need……” 9q7NOK

As the two workers gradually proceeded, the black-haired youth also sank into contemplation: A house that can fit myself? The youth thought of his current 120 thousand tonne body…… No, he’s too fat, he can’t afford such a big house!

At night, the youth sat at the dining table in the pavilion of the garden, eating dinner and enjoying the glow of the artificial sunset.

System 2d14: [Ding! The host system has sent you an assigned mission request. Mission location: Happy Planet. Destruction time is 2 days later. Mission contents: Find the cause of the end of Happy Planet. The specific details will be left to the prophet Xiao Mao to introduce to you.]

The black-haired youth was shocked for a moment: “What? My current several kilograms brain can’t seem to understand. The host system doesn’t know why Happy Planet will be destroyed? Is Xiao Mao the cat from the Cloud Raising Cat group?” 5u6e9i

System 2d14: [Ding! Stranger VV9988 requests to communicate with you. Do you wish to connect?]

The black-haired youth: “Yes.”

“Hello Xiao Yi. I am saviour number VV9988 Xiao Mao. The host system should have already sent you an assigned mission request.” A young girl’s voice came through.

The black-haired youth: “Hello, Xiao Mao! Are you the cat from the Cloud Raising Cat group? Nice to meet you.” EfAkm

“Yes, I am.” What surprised Xiao Yi was that Xiao Mao acknowledged what he said without any embarrassment. The girl continued to say in a cold voice: “Now, let’s get back to business. I have a language ability. Sometimes, I will see some scenes or hear some predictions about the future. The words I just heard in my sleep are: In the astronomic calendar year 12036, on the 4th of August at 11am, Happy Planet will be completely destroyed.

However, Happy Planet is currently operating as usual. So the host system has assigned you to immediately leave for that planet to investigate the cause of its destruction. Remember, I have previously made 1223 predictions and they have all come true. You must take this matter seriously!”

The girl’s voice completely subverted the delicate impression Xiao Yi thought Xiao Mao would have. However, he quickly put away his surprise and used his current only a few kilograms brain to try and analyse the whole story. Then, he finally grasped the key point:

“Xiao Mao, you didn’t just make this prediction, right? Otherwise, why is it that the first thing the host system did after knowing about the situation is to find me? Concerning the life or death of a planet, instead of sending several SSS rank saviours, it only appointed me. And as for you, you don’t see any problem with it. Could it be that you saw something about me in your other predictions?” fxSDYK

“In my vision, all prophecies cannot be altered. No matter what changes everyone makes, the designated outcome would still happen. However, there are some scenes with altered endings that would flash through my mind according to people’s different choices, but whenever I reveal the contents of these scenes to others, the new ending would always be much worse.”

The black-haired youth: “So you ‘saw’ a scene about me? Okay, don’t say it out! I will immediately leave for Happy Planet. Why didn’t you predict it earlier, there’s only 2 days left……”

Chrysanthemum Garden.

The youth complained and disappeared with an orange light. Compared with D planet, Happy Planet was clearly much closer. A few minutes later, the black-haired youth appeared on the bustling streets of Happy Planet.

This was a pedestrian street. There were high-rise buildings, restaurants and shopping malls on both sides. The street was bustling with activity; streams of people were window shopping and sightseeing. The surrounding tourists were not at all shocked when the black-haired youth appeared out of thin air. There was even a young girl eating ice cream who enthusiastically greeted Xiao Yi: zAFxXd

“Welcome to Happy Planet. You directly came through a transmission array, right? You are so wealthy!”

The black-haired youth smiled: “Thank you, beautiful lady.”

Seeing the youth’s clear and handsome smile, the girl blushed and dragged the friend beside her to walk away while saying words such as ‘so handsome!’. From time to time, she would also glance back to look at the youth’s side profile.

The black-haired youth slowly moved along with the stream of people on the street. 2d14’s system prompt sounded in his mind: yBRIbm

[Ding! Now providing a brief introduction of Happy Planet for the host: Happy Planet is a famous entertainment planet in the galaxy. It is famous for its convenient transportation and rich entertainment facilities! Happy Planet has establish long-term transmission channels with more than 200 planets in the entire galaxy. There are thousands of A ranked simulated natural landscapes as well as thousands of iconic buildings. While allowing people to appreciate the natural scenery, it is also a good destination for shopping and recreation……]

System 2d14 continued to read aloud the introduction, but the black-haired youth was bored to death: “Did the host system just copy and paste Happy Planet’s travel advertisement?”

After System 2d14 read for another ten minutes, it finally concluded: […… the cross-planet traffic reaches 200 thousand visitors per month. Now, the time until Happy Planet is completely destroyed is 47 hours and 23 minutes.]

The black-haired youth subconsciously looked at the clock in the plaza. It was now 11:05 in the morning, which meant that two days later at 10:23 local time, this planet would be completely destroyed. rSxoqK

The black-haired youth was puzzled: “How is this possible? It doesn’t look like this world is going to be destroyed at all. 2d14, what is the host system’s definition of the complete destruction of a planet?”

System 2d14: [Ding! Definition: The death of all humans on the planet.]

System 2d14: [Ding! Because the host’s operation this time is not classified as an act of salvation, the host system will temporarily change the host’s system number to 0193 and keep this operation confidential.]

After hearing this, the black-haired youth thought for a moment and mumbled to himself: “Because this isn’t a salvation operation, it needs to be kept confidential? The system number also needs to be changed? What is this logic?! Even if the host system is finding an excuse, this excuse is too random. I feel like the host system and Mao both know something. It’s just me who’s kept in the dark……” 7WDYcm

The black-haired youth: “No, my current brain capacity isn’t enough. I must replenish it.”

Saying this, the black haired youth secretly took out some camouflaged transparent strands from his space and extended them towards the surroundings.

  1. This mission is really sus. If it wasn’t for the prophecy, I would have thought that this was a pit mission set up by the main system.

  2. Hmm. Is this a trap? Also, if I don’t get an amusement park date with god H then it’s all in vain.

    Thanks for the great translation ♥️
