I, the leader of the esoteric sect, am doing great things in the infinite world!

Li Lin stiffened his neck and got up from the ground, then plopped down on the sofa.

Perhaps his movements were too large, because the floor started to shake.

Something seems to have awakened.

Li Lin was oblivious. He stared at the books, his face contorted, and after a moment he made a shameful gesture: "Appraisal!"

Of course, no panel opened in front of him.

Li Lin suddenly collapsed to the ground, pressing his right hand down with his left, and roared hoarsely, "No, you can't, you can't touch it! My King's Power!"

He struggled to the fireplace, quickly pulled out a book, and then walked back to the sofa as if nothing had happened.

It's clear that the doctors' decision to put him in the psychiatric ward wasn't unfounded.

Just as Li Lin was about to turn to the first page, the door opened.

"Who are you! Why are you in my house!"

Li Lin quickly rolled over and hid on the edge of the sofa.

He had absolutely no sense that he was the one who had broken into someone else's home.

However, the visitor had no intention of responding to him in the first place.

The already crumbling door snapped open with a crack, revealing a chrysanthemum-yellow "gas lamp" floating in mid-air, its exterior covered in dark scales resembling cloud patterns.

The air was filled with the stench of reptiles.

It was a giant snake of unimaginable size.

Li Lin was stunned: "Monster girl?"

He then looked at his pants with ecstatic joy.

In that instant, a transparent box suddenly appeared in front of Li Lin. With the appearance of this box, the surroundings seemed to fall into an eerie stillness, and even the giant snake dancing outside the door stopped moving.

This box-shaped interface is extremely rudimentary, like something made by a novice programmer.

Li Lin's attention immediately shifted from the monster girl to the "system" in front of him.

He said in a deep voice, "I, Li Lin, have never acted inferior to anyone in my life. Deep Blue, give me some points!"

The transparent interface slowly opened, and a familiar, dark green flat desktop appeared before Li Lin's eyes.

A strikingly handsome card lies quietly on the table.

The paper doll is actually myself?

When Li Lin focused his attention on the card, it lit up.

Name: Abraham Leelin

[Occupation: Key Hunter (Former)]

[Physical condition: 1 (An average person, possibly due to lack of exercise or a past death at the hands of a snake)]

[Intelligence: 3 (An exceptional individual. This is your limit without access to other avenues. Mentally ill individuals possess broad thinking.)]

[Current World: Awake World.]

This entry is not currently visible.

[Current remaining travel attempts: 1 (no cooldown)]

[New player protection time remaining: 30 seconds.]

The classic esoteric simulator desktop system, combined with the infinite flow system description, results in a typical hybrid interface.

It's obvious that he can't add points to Li Lin's stats.

When he looked at the book in his hands, a similar notification lit up.

[A book containing classified information has been detected.]

[Extraordinary power detected: Tantric system.]

It's obvious which world I'm in now; without a doubt, this is the worldview of the Cultist Simulator.

The identity of the giant snake outside the door is now readily apparent—it is the snake referred to as "Young Sister" in the esoteric simulator.

Considering the description of his "physical constitution" leading to his death in a snake's belly, one can imagine what happened between Li Lin's predecessor and this bratty little sister.

If things continue like this, I won't be able to escape even if I try.

Unless you continue traversing.

In a world where time stands still, Li Lin's eyes darted around. He reached out and pressed the confirmation button for time travel while intending to move over and pick up the suitcase full of books.

However, the moment he moves, the invincibility period of the novice protection is automatically considered to have ended.

The large snake that peeked in from outside the door and Li Lin looked at each other in bewilderment.

Li Lin stomped his foot angrily on the ground: "Blanch!"

He clicked "time travel" directly.

This time, the journey wasn't as passive as the previous two.

Specifically, the first two times he was like toilet paper being flushed away, but this time he pressed the flush button himself.

The cards on the system desktop automatically collapsed, and a crisscrossing map gradually emerged on the previously empty desktop.

A moment later, the card that symbolized Li Lin appeared somewhere on the map.

......

On the snow-covered plains, Li Lin stood blankly in a snowdrift.

"Where the hell is this?"

Give me some points in Chapter Two!

It's worth mentioning that Li Lin was also wearing a coat, which gave him the leisure to examine his system even in the freezing cold.

What if it can add points?

He shifted his gaze to the paper figure in the upper left corner of the table.

Name: Abraham Leelin

[Occupation: Key Hunter (Former)]

Despite these two factors, his physical and intellectual abilities remain pitiful. Li Lin simply smiled and dismissed it: "After I add some points, he'll become both intelligent and brave sooner or later."

This system is really terrible.

Under the sections for physical fitness and intelligence, new statuses are constantly being updated.

Li Lin squinted, examining the text on the interface.

[Anchored World: The World of Awakening.]

[Current World: Arknights]

[Current remaining travel attempts: 0 (Cooldown is in progress; returning to the anchor world does not consume attempts).]

The current world is not an anchored world; a universal language has taken effect!

[Current season: A time of quietude.]

No special power system of this world has been detected yet!

In other words, even if Li Lin ends his journey in the Arknights world, the world he returns to is not Earth two thousand years in the future, but the world of the Cult Simulator.

The so-called "awakening world" is the name given to the real world in the worldview of the esoteric simulator.

The silent season is a special mechanism in this game: every so often, a different season will begin, and different events will occur in each season.

The silent season represents the absence of any special events.

Li Lin clicked his tongue in dissatisfaction.

He's not thinking about his plans for the time being after returning to the world he was in, because the world he's in now isn't exactly a good one either.

Arknights is a world filled with kemonomimi (animal-eared girls) and natural disasters.

Players take on the role of the head of an illegal pharmaceutical organization, leading his kemonomimi (animal-eared girls) against countless enemies.

Of course, there are not only animal-eared girls, but also furry beastmen who are a source of great joy for Fury fans... Half of this world is harsh and cold, while the other half seems to be filtered through anime. Of course, Li Lin is not saying that this aspect is bad.

To be fair, if a girl with animal ears were willing to end up with him, Li would be quite willing.

So where can I kidnap a beast-eared girl?

Li Lin stared blankly at the map that the system had kindly provided, scanning it back and forth until he finally found a small village marker.

......

Talulah walked back to the village on the path, carrying her day's harvest.

The weather was bitterly cold, breath turned to frost, and a blanket of white snow covered the barren plains, with the harsh winter lingering long in the northern border of this land.

Three-quarters of the year in Ursus is winter, and the harsh winter resides in the veins of the people of Ursus, sculpting them into a hard and cold form.

Quite some time has passed since she escaped from the immortal black serpent, Duke Koschche. Although life here is lacking in supplies and the usual activities are rather uninteresting, it is still quite good for Talulah.
