Swallowing the Stars: Sacrifice to Become Stronger, Fiancée is Alluring

Chapter 1 Sacrifice System, Black-Crowned Golden Eagle Corpse!

"Hey, the college entrance exam is next month, are you confident?"

"I've given up on the top military academy. With my grades, even if I perform well, I'll barely pass the undergraduate entrance exam. Let's see if I can get into the second-best military academy."

Hearing the conversation around him, Jiang Lan let out a long sigh.

He might not even be able to reach the passing grade for undergraduate programs now.

He has been in this world for over a month.

He also roughly understood that this should be the world of a novel he had read in his previous life called "Swallowing the Stars".

RR Virus, Monster, Ultimate Martial Arts School, Thunder Martial Arts School.

In short, this is a dangerous world.

And he had nothing left except for the few unproductive memories he inherited from the original owner.

The original owner's parents died in an accident before he transmigrated.

He was originally a student at the Third High School in Yi'an District, and he was always unremarkable at school, the kind of person who blended into the crowd.

Because of the sudden death of his parents, the original owner's family was instantly shattered, and he chose to end his life because he could not bear this sudden and huge blow.

So, Jiang Lan took the blame for this unlucky guy.

Apart from 32,800 yuan in savings and a commercial apartment, Jiang Lan now has practically nothing.

There was absolutely nothing.

No relatives, no friends, and even his memories are incomplete.

No, it's not that he had none at all. In his vague memory, he seemed to have a fiancée.

Jiang Lan only had a vague impression of this, and his mind was completely blank as to who his fiancée was.

Although he had knowledge from his previous life, he knew without even thinking that the college entrance exam in this world would definitely not test what he had learned in his previous life.

As for becoming a martial artist...

Based on Jiang Lan's limited memory of the novel, in this world, to become a junior warrior, one must have a punching power of at least 900 kilograms and a speed of 25 meters per second.

His previous test results at the martial arts school showed a punching force of 300 kilograms and a speed of 12.3 meters per second.

This physique would be considered Olympic-level back in Jiang Lan's hometown.

But in this place where everyone has been modified by the RR virus, his physical condition is even worse than that of an ordinary person.

"I was clearly injured and killed while helping an old lady cross the street, and I even pushed her away before I died. How did I end up in this unlucky body?"

Jiang Lan couldn't help but complain again.

With only one month left until the college entrance exam, even if he were a genius, it would be impossible for him to learn everything that others have spent over a decade learning in just one month.

Becoming a martial artist is even more absurd.

With such terrible physical abilities, he'd be the worst beginner in the martial arts school, not even qualified to register for the martial arts assessment.

But even if he were to participate, it wouldn't make a difference; he simply couldn't get through it.

"In my past life, I was at least a corporate slave. Now, I've lost all my education. I wonder which construction site is short of workers... I'm a transmigrator after all. Even without any cheat codes, I might still become a foreman someday."

Jiang Lan had already foreseen the miserable life that awaited her.

Thirty thousand is enough to live on for a while, but that's only enough for a while. It's far from enough to live a life of leisure and idleness.

If he didn't want to starve or have to accept relief food, he had to start planning for the future.

"唳——"

"Screech—"

Just as Jiang Lan was pondering, a bird song suddenly rang out from the sky.

Immediately, a violent hurricane swept by, causing Jiang Lan to fall to the ground with a thud.

Jiang Lan looked up at the sky and saw a huge bird, more than twenty meters long, flying by.

The large bird resembled a fighter jet, its feathers reflecting a cold luster under the sunlight, with a few dark feathers standing atop its head like a crown.

Jiang Lan subconsciously squinted her eyes.

"A black-crowned golden eagle?"

He had read Swallowed Star in his previous life. Although he didn't remember many of the plot details clearly, he could still remember the beginning of the story.

Holy crap!

Jiang Lan struggled to her feet, supporting herself with her hands, and ran towards a more open area in the distance.

This thing is so destructive; standing under these tall buildings is practically suicide.

Just then, the black-crowned golden eagle suddenly flapped its wings, instantly increasing its already extremely fast speed by several levels, breaking the sound barrier, and emitting a series of booming explosions.

"Hey!"

The black-crowned golden eagle let out a high-pitched cry, and the huge, sharp sound actually turned into a visible shockwave that rapidly spread outwards towards the city below.

"Crash! Bang!"

On both sides of the street, whether it was residential buildings or shops, the glass shattered instantly and crashed to the ground.

Some of the debris hit cars, triggering vehicle alarms and causing chaos throughout the street.

The sound waves also reached Jiang Lan's ears, and the loud noise made his mind go blank.

Jiang Lan instinctively covered his ears, but he didn't notice that a huge "GG" sign above his head was already teetering on the verge of collapse.

As the black-crowned golden eagle flapped its wings again, creating a fierce hurricane, the GG sign finally gave way and crashed to the ground.

Jiang Lan felt a chill run down her spine, sensing that danger was gradually approaching.

But the GG card fell so fast that he didn't even have time to react before it crashed down on him.

"Holy shit!"

The intense numbness and coldness made Jiang Lan instinctively curse aloud.

Taking advantage of the gap, Jiang Lan looked down with difficulty and saw that two steel bars had pierced through his calves.

Fortunately, it was only her calf that was injured, and her arteries were not damaged; otherwise, Jiang Lan would probably be dead by now.

"Damn it, I can't even be a foreman?" Adrenaline surged, and Jiang Lan felt no pain, only a surge of excitement. "Damn it, if I catch you, I'll rip your eggs off and roast them!"

After cursing for a while, Jiang Lan finally felt a bit tired.

A wave of fatigue washed over Jiang Lan, making her instinctively want to close her eyes.

"I can't sleep! It's shown on TV that if I sleep, I'll die!"

Jiang Lan reached out and slapped herself hard across the face.

Jiang Lan's lower body was covered by the GG brand, but her chest and arms were still exposed.

He gritted his teeth and held on, not knowing how much time had passed, but it felt so long that he almost couldn't hold on any longer and closed his eyes again.

"Bang!"

A tremendous sound rang in Jiang Lan's ears. He forced his eyes open and saw a huge bird.

However, the large bird looked completely dead; apart from the faint twitching of its feathers, it showed no signs of life.

"Fine, consider it revenge for me..."

Jiang Lan muttered something to herself and was about to close her eyes.

He simply couldn't hold on any longer.

[Items eligible for sacrifice detected; sacrifice system now bound!]

Jiang Lan immediately opened her eyes again.

You fucking bastard!

They've finally arrived!

Any later and I'd be dead!
