I, the heir of the great Eastern nation

Flowers are red, trees are green, and streams flow gently.

However, Liu Zhao, standing among the flowers by the river at this moment, had no intention of appreciating the beautiful scenery whatsoever.

Looking at the unfamiliar surroundings, he felt only intense panic.

"Heavens above, what have you done to me?"

After letting out a trembling, hoarse wail, Liu Zhao, already utterly exhausted, slumped to the ground. Recalling his experiences over the past half-day, his heart was filled with utter despair.

As a senior student about to graduate, he had just received a stroke of good luck, achieving an exceptionally high score of 160 in the provincial civil service exam, ranking first in the written test, second in the interview, and ultimately first in the overall score, successfully securing a job that will accompany him for the rest of his life.

I was having a great time when I made plans with some friends to go to one of my buddies' hometowns in Guizhou for a couple of days. After we got back, I'd slowly start the job process.

Unexpectedly, as Liu Zhao was leaving Guizhou and preparing to take the subway to the airport, following the road signs and walking into a tree-lined path, he inexplicably found himself in a vast forest with an ice cream stick in his mouth.

My phone suddenly lost signal.

At first, Liu Zhao thought he might be dizzy and lost.

But soon, what he saw in the forest made him realize he was wrong.

Moreover, the mistakes are quite egregious.

Two huge suns overhead...

A gigantic vine, thicker than my own thigh...

A giant, colorful mushroom bigger than my head...

It casually ate the carnivorous plant that was flying by like a sparrow with a smack...

And... a colorful toad that's half a meter tall is fighting with a red lizard of similar size!

I won't even mention the colorful and fluctuating special effects.

The lizard's tail swept across the tree trunk, snapping it in half!

Good heavens, if that hit him, he'd die on the spot.

Upon seeing this, Liu Zhao turned pale with fright. Without saying a word, he grabbed his bag and ran for his life.

Finally, unable to run any further, they stopped by the river to rest for a while.

During his break, recalling his bizarre experience, he couldn't help but come up with an outrageous guess.

Although I really didn't want to believe it.

But it seems, it appears, that he really... traveled through time.

"Seriously, I'm speechless. Is my life really that miserable?"

Lying on a large rock by the river, Liu Zhao gasped for breath.

"Just wear it, it's not a big deal."

"But why did you just dump me in this damn crappy place?"

Looking at the endless dense forest around him, Liu Zhao felt like crying.

"I'm just an ordinary, weak college student with no special advantages, and I've got this terrible start. How am I supposed to survive this?!"

but.

Resentment aside.

Make a fuss as it may.

Liu Zhao dared not risk his life.

After regaining some of his strength, he immediately began to think of a solution.

A decision was made quickly.

Let's walk along the river!

Yes, if you don't know the way at all, the chances of survival are definitely higher if you follow the river to find a human settlement than if you wander around randomly!

Without further ado, let's set off!

With a thought in mind, Liu Zhao immediately perked up and began walking downstream along the river.

This walk took nearly three hours.

Despite spending so much time, his exploration progress was extremely slow.

There was no way around it; he was a delicate flower of the motherland who had lived in a greenhouse since childhood. The most difficult days of his life, all I could count, were preparing for the college entrance examination and the provincial civil service examination.

Let alone real wilderness survival, he'd tremble even if you asked him to kill a chicken.

How could this withstand the harsh environment of the primeval forest?

Now, they have to carefully avoid unknown poisonous flowers and plants, and also find a way to cross the treacherous thicket roadblocks. The journey is incredibly difficult.

Carrying a sports backpack, he hopped and jumped around, climbing and crawling.

Most importantly, he was constantly in a state of high tension.

After just four hours, I was completely exhausted.

Luckily, he still had two bottles of water left in his backpack, and he also occasionally played sports with his roommates. This trip was also quite casual, so he didn't have much stuff in his bag, and it wasn't very heavy. Otherwise, he would have been exhausted long ago.

Even so, he felt that his physical strength was almost at its limit.

To make matters worse, it was getting dark very soon.

"This is bad news! Once it gets dark, the danger in this forest will definitely increase exponentially. Even if I don't encounter any strange 'monsters,' any ordinary, large wild animal could probably take me down with ease!"

Liu Zhao had an extremely clear self-awareness regarding his near-zero wilderness survival skills.

Therefore, even when his physical strength was almost at its limit, he still gritted his teeth and continued to persevere.

As I moved forward, I kept silently encouraging myself.

"Go Liu Zhao, you can do it!"

"It's just a simple survival challenge in another world, that should be no problem for you."

Even without weapons and tools, even without directions and maps, even without cell phone signal, even if the plants and animals here could kill you at any moment...

Liu Zhao, who originally wanted to encourage himself through psychological suggestion, found his voice growing weaker and weaker as he spoke, and his nose began to sting with tears.

In a moment of distraction, he didn't notice where he was going and tripped over a vine, hitting his elbow and wincing in pain.

Immediately feeling extreme exhaustion and excruciating pain in his elbow, Liu Zhao couldn't help but curse through tears.

"Damn it! Why?!"

"Why me? Why do I have to come to this godforsaken place and suffer like this?!"

Feeling uncomfortable all over, Liu Zhao immediately felt an urge to give up on himself.

"Damn it! Since continuing like this doesn't guarantee survival, instead of just adding to the suffering, I might as well give up!"

"Live? Live my ass! Just lie here and wait to die!"

One second ago, Liu Zhao felt he had reached his absolute limit and made the decision to give up and wait for death.

The next second, out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught sight of a gray, nearly half-meter-tall canine creature, neither wolf nor dog, standing quietly in a bush not far away, staring intently at him with its blood-red eyes.

Seeing the beast's bare, sharp white teeth, Liu Zhao jumped to his feet and then fell silent.

Seeing that the beast did not attack immediately, Liu Zhao, who was frozen in fear, did not dare to make any rash moves and forced a smile on his face.

"Hey... Brother Dog, I was just kidding, please don't take it seriously, okay?"

Knowing he could never outrun his opponent, Liu Zhao immediately abandoned the idea of ​​escaping and tried to communicate with Greyhound.

And what about Greyhound?

The greyhound remained silent, only barking softly as it approached.

Seeing this, Liu Zhao was terrified.

"No! Calm down! Calm down!"

"Don't panic, or we'll really have to send it!!"

In the face of a life-or-death crisis, the instincts of a top-notch test-taker within Liu Zhao began to kick in.

Given the extremely critical situation, and the fact that you are exhausted and would undoubtedly lose in a one-on-one fight, how can you survive the jaws of a wild beast?

If you can't defeat them by force, how can you outsmart them?

Tools are essential!

"Tools! Tools!"

Liu Zhao gritted his teeth and frantically searched his mind for all the tools he possessed.

A Nike backpack... useless.

Two bottles of mineral water... no use.

A change of clothes... is useless.

Two pairs of chopsticks... no use.

A power bank that's out of power... is useless.

A pair of flip-flops...useless.

Three packs of instant noodles... no use.

A bottle of Lao Gan Ma chili sauce... might be of some use.

cell phone……

mobile phone!

In an instant, Liu Zhao had a flash of inspiration and immediately pulled out his still-powerful Mate 60 Pro from his pocket.

Then, with practiced ease, I opened the Bilibili app and found a newly saved video in the cached videos.

The name of this video is:

A real tiger roars in the mountains; are you afraid to be alone in the wild?

Turn the phone's speaker volume up to the maximum.

Click to play.

Roar~

Instantly, the deep roar of a tiger, the king of the forest, suddenly came from the phone.

At the same time, Liu Zhao, in sync with the tiger's roar coming from his phone, bared his teeth and made a fierce expression at the greyhound.

Don't tell!

Caught off guard, the greyhound was genuinely startled.

Its already low intelligence was immediately replaced by fear. It looked around with its head turned left and right, whimpered twice, and then turned and ran away.

Upon seeing this, Liu Zhao finally breathed a sigh of relief.

A surge of energy!

Wow~ So the Douyin users weren't lying after all!

A tiger's roar can really scare a dog!

However, just as he felt relieved and thankful that he had been lucky enough to escape with his life.

Suddenly, a sharp pain shot through my left calf.

"grass!"

Liu Zhao instinctively slapped a long, thin, emerald-green venomous snake away.

Then, looking at the two small bloody holes bitten into his calf, his first reaction was to immediately search his mind for the appropriate treatment.

"Don't panic! Stay calm!"

"I remember seeing a related video on Douyin a few days ago, how do I do it?"

"Right, the first step is to film the snake to identify what kind of snake it is, and then clean and wash the wound..."

"It's okay, it's okay, take it one step at a time, calm down..."

Liu Zhao forced himself to calm down and prepared to follow the method he remembered step by step.

However, the next second, just as he was about to turn on the camera, he suddenly froze.

My phone has no signal, who can I send the video to?

The thought had barely crossed Liu Zhao's mind when he suddenly felt his body stiffen, his vision blurred, and he collapsed to the ground.

Before losing consciousness, he couldn't help but let out a mournful howl of immense grief and indignation in his heart.

"Damn it! What a terrible start!"

"send!"

Then, with a groggy head, I successfully clicked a button in the bottom right corner of the stopped video with my finger.

[Brainwashing Cycle]

Finally, with his last bit of consciousness, he shoved his phone into his pocket, and then completely lost consciousness.

By the riverbank, the unfortunate college student lay unconscious on the grass, his phone still playing the same roaring tiger video on repeat.

"roar"

The continuous roars of beasts echoed and spread in all directions.

After some time, a figure was finally drawn to the place and saw Liu Zhao, who had lost consciousness.

……

I don't know how much time passed.

When Liu Zhao opened his eyes again, he instinctively sat up.

With his head still spinning, he squinted and saw that he was lying on a hard wooden bed.

Beside the bed lay a thin, blond-haired girl who looked only four or five years old.

Upon seeing him wake up, the little girl was stunned for a moment, then let out a gasp that Liu Zhao couldn't understand, and quickly ran towards the door.

The next second, a tall, thin, middle-aged man with brown hair who looked like a foreigner suddenly rushed into the room. When he saw Liu Zhao sitting on the bed, his tense expression instantly relaxed.

"Aurelia#Anfesah%Minos*"

He clasped his hands together and said something that Liu Zhao couldn't understand.

Liu Zhao was stunned for a moment upon hearing this.

Foreigners?

But it doesn't sound like English!

No, wait, I've been transported to another world! This person is a native from another world!

In an instant, Liu Zhao was jolted awake by this fact.

Then, just as he smiled and raised his right hand, ready to express his goodwill through gestures as much as possible despite the language barrier.

The thin, middle-aged man in front of him did something that caught him completely off guard.

He suddenly knelt down!

And it was the kind where your forehead was directly touching the ground!

The little girl who followed him in did the same thing, kneeling respectfully before Liu Zhao.

This immediately startled Liu Zhao.

"Holy crap...no!"

He jumped out of bed and quickly reached out to help the tall, thin man up.

However, to Liu Zhao's surprise, his action caused the tall, thin man to look terrified. Instead of standing up, he knelt down and retreated repeatedly, speaking in a language that Liu Zhao could not understand.

This reaction completely baffled Liu Zhao, who had no idea what was going on.

Just then, Liu Zhao, who was standing on the high ground looking down at the other party, suddenly noticed something very strange.

That is, the old man and the young man kneeling in front of him both had a line of white text displayed above their heads.

Upon seeing this, Liu Zhao was stunned.

What is this thing?

What text is written above their heads?

A game ID?

Did I travel into a game?

What does this mean?

At that moment, thinking of this possibility, Liu Zhao subconsciously looked up.

Upon seeing this, they were completely stunned.

Above his head was also a line of text!

And, right under his gaze, that line of text that he couldn't understand before suddenly entered his mind in an incredibly strange way, just like learning a new language in an instant, and he understood it instantly.

And translated, this line means...

The Heir to the Great Eastern Power
