Category: Fantasy-Another World.

【Introduction】

Eating hot pot and watching a movie alone is worth one more person.

A person practices boxing and meditates, and looks at the scenery from a hundred-meter-high building. The value of each person is added by two.

A person is chased by wolves, lions, and gods. He turns around and chases the wolves, abuses the lions, and chop the gods. His value increases by five.

【Golden Five Chapters】

Chapter One: One Person's Worth. The protagonist, Tang Hong, is traveling alone on a high-speed train. Bored, he resorts to playing with his secondhand phone and wearing 9.9 yuan headphones with free shipping. He watches movies with a dead battery and listens to loud music. Worst of all, the couple sitting across from him are incredibly affectionate. In this moment of boredom, the system arrives. While the superior power fails to align with it, the power of one person succeeds, but the intelligent mechanism escapes.

Chapter 2: The first sentence of the day. The protagonist returns to the dorm. His roommate is out partying, and he invites him to join them, but he can't do anything illegal. The protagonist studies alone, sleeps, and wanders off to his own thoughts. He discovers that increasing one person's power is incredibly difficult. However, while the power increase is minimal, it does appear to be a numerical increase.

Chapter 3, Gods (Part 1). The protagonist looked up his loneliness level online, hoping to gain more loneliness points by increasing it. He went to the supermarket alone, failed; he ate hot pot alone, also failed. After searching for a long time, he finally decided to go to the amusement park alone. Disney tickets were expensive, crowded, and the wait was long. Fortunately, his loneliness points increased. To increase his loneliness points, the protagonist decided to ride a two-and-a-half-hour bike back to school. Thunder rolled in.
Chapter 4, Gods (Part 2). The protagonist witnessed a group of people besieging a ball of light in an abandoned factory. They were defeated miserably, unable to defeat them. Going on their bike now would likely lead to them being overtaken. The protagonist decided to take a taxi back to school, quickly adding the points they had earned to their willpower. However, before they could even catch their breath, they were blocked upon entering the campus. It was unclear whether they were friend or foe, and the other party was ruthless. The protagonist could only calmly say, "Don't kill me! I'll join you!"

Chapter 5, The Memory Eraser. A mysterious figure asks the protagonist to join, offering a generous internship salary. However, if the training is successful, there's a high chance the Sniper God will die. The protagonist wants to increase the salary, refuse, and reply the next day, but the figure waits for him downstairs in the dormitory all night. The other party's desire for talent is strong, but the protagonist's desire to survive is also strong. What should he do?
【Brief Comment】

First, let me question the classification. Although the author of this book has always written fantasy themes and won the first prize in the Fantasy King essay contest, this book should actually be classified as urban supernatural or science fiction.

Because, in terms of subject matter, it feels closer to urban supernatural dramas such as "Global High Martial Arts", "Above the Dome", and "The King Spares Me".

This book is also a system-based one, where you level up by adding points. The conditions for gaining points are your own strength and loneliness. The lonelier and more miserable you are, the more points you'll earn. This is a path to a life of loneliness, a path to Iron Man, from which there's no return.

As for the style, some say it's stream of consciousness, with scene transitions not seamlessly cohesive. That's unimportant; what's important is how the protagonist, at the cost of his own life, achieves his own power. Readers enjoy watching the protagonist's greed, caution, and irresistible urge to showcase his talent.

The language of this book is extremely charming, with all kinds of magical jokes and code words, which are very hidden. Fortunately, thanks to the power of the masses, it is not stressful to interpret.

For the time being, the protagonist only wants to experience the peak of life in the material world. Marrying a beautiful, rich woman or something like that is not something he is considering for the time being because his hormones are temporarily suppressed.

As for saving the world, it's not his turn yet, but he should be there later. After all, with great power comes great responsibility.

The book starts off brilliantly, and the sequel is thrilling too, with endless sass, leaving your opponent choking and unable to vomit. Plus, the author's imagination is incredibly unique, always able to combine real life and come up with many hilarious and hilarious plots.

【At last】

No matter what the subject matter is, as long as it is light-hearted and funny enough, it can easily touch the hearts of readers.

If we can make this chapter more lively, even if we crowdfund some content, I think it will have a very good effect.

So, friends passing by, if you also like this article, please go and take a look.

[Cang's Ramblings] First of all, I would like to apologize to my readers.

I actually did an online car rollover show, the difficulty level is 99999+
You may have also seen my previous article "Record: The Third Time on the Recommended List".

I thought I was on six-band, but after the results came out I found out that I wasn't.

This week’s top pick in the short story category!

It can be seen that I am really a cute little newbie. I don’t know anything, but I dare to talk nonsense.
Of course, I am still very grateful to the editor MM for her kindness.

She is the kindest editor I have ever met, and she is quiet and doesn't talk much.

Actually, it was just one sentence. I asked her at that time, should I go naked on the shelves?

She said: Keep updating and write well!
It is these words that have always inspired me to update 4000+ words every day.

(Of course, this is also to hold on to perfect attendance!)
There are also some friends who have followed my column and other platforms before and know that I have written many book reviews.

They thought I was just moving it directly.

Are you kidding me?
That's because they haven't read the VIP chapters!

There are actually two points that are the essence of my book.

First, exquisite book reviews;
Second, the magical mumbling.

Once, about three months ago, a reader left a message on my "Collapse Demon King" and attacked me, so I banned him.

He said I was "writing nonsense"!
He didn't know that there really was an author named "Xia Xie".

I don’t know, does he know what “stream of consciousness” is?
None of this matters.

Write a book, no matter what your purpose is.

If you are not happy writing, it will become an extremely painful thing.

Even if the book performs very well and the author is very famous, it will still have the fate of being a eunuch.

Recently, many well-known authors have decisively chosen this path.

Including last year's newly-crowned platinum writers.

In fact, when he first published a new book, the title showed that it was not of good quality and was obviously following the trend.

I also said yesterday that from now on I will be a soulless book promoter.

That's just for other platforms.

My soul is really here!

So, let’s chat together.

Who are you waiting for?
I'm empty!
Because this week’s recommendations include the store’s treasure in the short story category, “Come On,” and the chart-topping master, Sweeping Leaves Monk.

Alas, I can’t look up to the sky~
I can only rely on the power of one person.

The lonelier, the stronger!
