An Unorthodox Guide to Conquering Another World

The tone of this book is clearly stated in the synopsis: it's like playing a game for the second time.

After completing the game, you've lost interest in the main storyline and now want to try a different lifestyle. For example, you might find maps that you couldn't unlock, try other professions, pursue characters you couldn't previously pursue, find some hidden Easter eggs, complete some interesting side quests, and when the time is almost up, you can follow the storyline to progress through the game and then continue to leisurely enjoy your daily life.

That's the whole book.

Of course, many people won't like this kind of low-tension story, and the male protagonist's erratic personality will also make it popular. It has received a lot of criticism and negativity recently.

As a reborn person, shouldn't one develop their power, settle old scores, conquer dungeons, become a lord, dominate the world, and then stop eating beef?

It's actually quite simple. Because he couldn't write it. As mentioned above, Lao Chuan's writing skills aren't up to par for serious drama. Moreover, from the very beginning, he intended to write a carefree, nonsensical, and joyful slice-of-life story. Aside from the character of the great magician Ya Feng, everything else in the book was written to achieve this goal.

Sometimes, what the author wants to write and what the reader wants to read may differ.

But as the saying goes, the author is like a bus. As long as you keep driving forward according to your own ideas, passengers will naturally get on and off when they reach their stops. If someone thinks you are driving too fast or too hastily, you can listen to their opinions and adjust accordingly. But if someone tells you to blow up the bus and replace it with a new one and drive it according to their ideas, that won't work.

Yes, there are indeed people in the book review section who say that this book is ruined and suggest that Lao Chuan delete it and rewrite it as a lord-conquering novel.

Haha, I laughed in exasperation. There are all kinds of people in the world.

At first, I would try to explain to them, but after realizing it was completely illogical, I deleted them all.

As for those who don't accept it, then they don't accept it.

after all...

The floating clouds may obscure the moon, but they cannot block my vision! My eyes, my eyes, my eyes, my eyes! My pursuit of the Way will not falter, even unto death! Iron, iron, iron, iron!

Main text

Chapter 80 Little Light, Conceptual Level?!

"Hello Master, I am your AI assistant Xiao Guang. Nice to meet you!"

Ya Feng held the tablet in his hand, completely bewildered, never imagining that this was the familiar of the gods that he had painstakingly created.

Why...why artificial intelligence?

Does this fit the setting of this world?

This is the Western Fantasy Continent!

He shook his head vigorously.

No, it's definitely not as simple as I think. This is a Source Beast, after all. Its limits can't be that low.

Who knows, maybe it really does have some powerful abilities that I never expected?

"Ya Feng, is this really a normal familiar?" Ilsa asked at this moment.

"I'm not sure either, but after all, it's a familiar transformed from a source beast, so it's likely that it will be somewhat different from ordinary ones," Ya Feng said.

He wanted to check the two innate skills his familiar had acquired, but they seemed to be blocked, making it impossible to observe them properly.

"Does that mean we need to complete the initial customization first?"

He looked at the screen and thought to himself.

"How should I address you..."

His gaze moved back and forth between several titles. In addition to the titles provided, one could also input the title they wanted, which was very user-friendly.

"Master, Boss, Brother, Dad, Baby, Brother, Emperor... Why are these titles getting more and more out of place?"

He glanced at the somewhat ambiguous terms of address.

"...Hmm...Although Master sounds nice too, it would be nice if a young familiar called you Dad in a cute little voice..." he thought to himself.

"Ahem, never mind. Anyway, in the future, there won't be just one way to address an AI. It doesn't matter what it's called."

With that in mind, he ultimately decided to use "master" as the title.

"character..."

After a moment's thought, he chose "vitality".

Who wouldn't want an AI that wakes you up every morning with boundless energy?

Another factor is body shape...

Why does this flat surface have a body shape? Could it transform into a beautiful girl in the future?

And this body detail is not yet unlocked because I haven't selected a body type, but judging from the description, could it be what I'm thinking?

You can choose the size, shape, color, and pattern; whether it has fur or not...

He raised his eyebrows, then his finger hovered over the first option for body type.

At that moment, he felt a gaze from the side.

Ilsa was watching him from the side.

"what happened?"

"It's nothing, just a little bit of that 'as expected' feeling," Ilsa said with a snort.

"Ahem, is there a problem? Newly born familiars have to start from the bottom, what's wrong with that?" Ya Feng said.

Then I pressed it on top.

But nothing happened.

A message appeared on the screen:

[External unit not yet installed, please try again]

"?"

No, what's going on? You mean I have to sculpt your body again?

Ya Feng is numb.

Fortunately, a skip option appeared at this point, and since he couldn't choose it, he eventually skipped it.

The pixelated emoji reappeared.

“≧▽≦”

"Hello, Master! Your AI assistant is now officially online. How can I help you?"

It's actually quite...cute.

"Uh... what can you do?" Ya Feng asked tentatively.

"Xiao Guang can do anything. He can help you find information, answer your questions, and even help you with your daily work. Just tell Xiao Guang if you need anything!"

Ya Feng thought for a moment and said, "Then help me search for the uncut version of the original behind-the-scenes photos of the Hell Sisters."

"Okay, searching for sexy photos of Cerberus for the master."

"No, what Cerberus! It's the Cerberus sisters! It's from the comics and anime!" Ya Feng exclaimed speechlessly.

"Okay, Master wanted the 'Three Sisters of Hell' comic. The search has been corrected and repeated. Here, the three sisters of hell refer to Satan, Beelzebub..."

"Wait! Where did you get this setting from! I'm talking about the comics!"

"Okay, searching for comics. Which comics would you like to read, Master?"

"..."

Ya Feng paused for a few seconds, then said:

"I'm asking you, my Bluetooth earphones are broken, should I go to the dentist or the ENT specialist?"

"My Bluetooth headset is broken. Of course, I should go to the dentist. Should I find the nearest dental clinic for you?"

Ya Feng chuckled, feeling relieved.

This guy is even more clueless than Ms. Bean...

What kind of thing did I just create...?

He covered his face and sighed deeply.

"Uh, this... Ya Feng, don't be sad. Even a divine familiar like a Source Beast is very weak when it is first born. It needs the nurturing of its contractor to become strong." Ilsa comforted him from the side.

“Yeah…that’s true…” Ya Feng forced a smile.

That's true. Familiars also need to be nurtured; there's no such thing as being invincible from birth.

Since it's already happened, there's nothing more to say. This is just the beginning; maybe we can discover even more of its capabilities?

Besides, some newly born familiars can only say "abba aba," so it's already quite good that mine can speak and think right away.

"Ya Feng... well, I'll go back and rest now. I have class tomorrow," Ilsa said.

She seemed to feel a little sorry for Ya Feng; the familiar she had painstakingly contracted seemed rather dim-witted.

"Hmm..." Ya Feng nodded, saying he wanted to stay there a little longer, and Ilsa went back first.

Looking at the tablet in my hand, the screen still displayed a pixelated emoji:

"∩_∩"

Ya Feng sighed.

"Alright, let's see your talent first."

Don't let me down.

He raised his hand and placed it on the tablet, sensing the two talents he had acquired:

The first one is:

[Modular Chip System: Xiaoguang can analyze targets and generate a chip containing that target's data, which is stored in its own data hub. This chip can be installed or uninstalled at any time. Once installed, both Xiaoguang and the host will gain the capabilities of the target corresponding to that chip. (The data center's storage limit and chip installation limit increase with Xiaoguang's level.)]

The screen redirected to a page that served as Xiaoguang's data hub, labeled with several unit sections: [Main Control Unit], [Functional Unit], [Personalized Unit], [Combat Unit], and [Extension Unit].

Each chip must be installed in the corresponding unit according to the provided effect in order to be used normally.

"Hmm?" Ya Feng raised his eyebrows.

This means that it can convert the capabilities of a target into chips, and can also store these chips in large quantities for installation and use at any time.

After installation, not only Xiao Guang will gain the corresponding abilities, but the host himself will also gain the corresponding abilities.

Moreover, the description of this "goal" is very general, as is the capability that can be obtained.

Can the knowledge in a person's mind, the magical attributes a person possesses, or even a person's personality traits be transformed into a chip?

Or, going a step further, it's not just about people. If we analyze the Holy Spring of the Church of the Radiance of Life, could we obtain a chip with mythical power?

Ya Feng dared not imagine; the upper limit of this ability was terrifying.

However, these still need to be tested first to see where the upper limit of this chip's conversion is.

Then he looked at the second talent.

[Concept Assignment: Xiao Guang can randomly generate a concept. Note that this ability can only be used once a week, and the concept generation depends on Xiao Guang's current strength.]

"What does this mean?" Just from the literal meaning, Ya Feng was a little confused.

However, this seems to be usable immediately, so why don't we just use it and see?

He used that ability.

The screen suddenly turned into a static display, flickering a few times before content appeared on the screen;

If I offered you 100,000 gold francs, but a snail would chase you for 24 hours, would you accept?

【Yes】

【no】

"Uh... what kind of old-fashioned multiple-choice question is this from a forum..."

If you don't work hard when you're young, you'll end up being judged on forums for your abilities.

Ya Feng was confused, but still symbolically pressed the "Yes" button.

Suddenly, a huge pile of banknotes rained down from the sky, forming a small mountain in front of him. Before he could react, another message popped up on the screen:

[Selection successful! For the next 24 hours, a snail will relentlessly pursue you! Beware! The snail will advance in a straight line towards you, cannot be destroyed, and cannot be stopped. It travels at 100 meters per hour and will respawn within 50 meters of you every hour. You will die instantly upon contact with the snail!]
