Otaku System

  "Woohoo...... I finally got it, the limited edition Railgun PVC figure!" Muxiaoxiao held a paper bag and walked on the street with an excited face. "It's just a bit expensive, looks like I'll only be eating instant noodles for the next few days, sigh..."

  Muxiaoxiao, 17 years old, an ordinary otaku, his family is quite well-off, but his parents are often away on business trips, so he's always alone at home. This makes him frequently complain that in the classic conditions for picking up girls in the second dimension, having a car and a house, with both parents busy, these are the necessary conditions for a man, but why has he himself passed 17 years, not to mention anything else, he hasn't even held hands with a girl.

  How unscientific!

  Is it that my own parents are not powerful enough? Looking at the dads and moms in anime, they're all divine teammates, fighting with a great assist, even if their own family doesn't have a beautiful girl, they'll still send an unmarried wife to their son. Indeed, the third dimension can't be compared to the second dimension...

  "Whatever, I've lost interest in the three dimensions anyway," sighed Xiao Xiao, hurrying home to grab the limited edition figurine. He could have left early and waited here, but now that the sky was darkening, Xiao Xiao suddenly stumbled, his foot stepping on empty air, and before he could react, he tumbled forward.

  "What the...?!" Mu Xiao was still trying to figure out what was going on when a strong pulling force suddenly came from all directions, and he could only helplessly shout out one sentence before fainting.

  "Who the hell dug this hole?!"

  The already unconscious Xiao Xiao didn't know that under his feet was not a pit, but a black hole. In the instant when the black hole sucked his body in, a light point entered Xiao Xiao's left eye. The people on the surrounding road didn't show any abnormal behavior, still walking by themselves as if they couldn't see this scene...

  ——————————————————————————————————————————

  "Drip, drip, drip... System activated... Life form detected... Beginning scan of life form characteristics..."

  "Scan complete, matching host conditions, starting host binding..."

  "Binding successful, Otaku system officially launched......"

  "Hmm... what's that sound? Mu Xiaoxiao's consciousness slowly returned, and in her daze, she kept hearing the 'drip, drip, drip' sound beside her ear. She slowly opened her eyes, "Ah... my eyes... they hurt so much." As soon as Mu Xiaoxiao opened her eyes, she felt a sharp pain coming from her left eye, and she couldn't help but cover them with her hands. "What's going on... did I get beaten up without realizing it?"

  Muttering to herself, Xiao Xiao casually swept her gaze around the surroundings. Her originally careless expression froze, then slowly widened in shock. Her eyes grew wide with an incredulous light, "This... where is this?"

  All he saw was himself lying in a forest, surrounded by towering trees that pierced the clouds, their tops invisible to the naked eye. Underneath the trees were countless flowers and grasses that stretched as far as the eye could see. Xiao Zhang's mouth agape, he stared blankly for a while before struggling to speak, "What's going on? I remember...I think I fell into a hole before...and then I don't know what happened...Damn! When I woke up, I ended up in the Amazon rainforest?"

  The bizarre situation made him automatically ignore the lingering stinging sensation in his eyes.

  "Host, this is not the Amazon jungle..."

  "Where did the voice come from?" He hadn't even absorbed the information from just now when the sudden voice startled him, and he cautiously scanned his surroundings. "Is there someone else here?"

  "I am not human..." The voice sounded again, "I am an intelligent AI of the system..."

  "AI? System?" Mu Xiaoxiao blinked her eyes, "Did I hear that wrong?"

  "Of course not, I am the Otaku System's AI, Host."

  "Could it be that I fell into a pit and stepped on dog shit at the same time? Otherwise, how could I be so lucky?" Mu Xiaoxiao said excitedly, "Otaku system, it seems my dream can come true!" Standing there daydreaming for half a day, Mu Xiaoxiao finally wiped away the saliva from the corner of her mouth. "Right, system, do you know where this place is? How did I suddenly end up here?"

  "This is the Miracle Continent, but as for what specific place it is, even the system isn't clear."

  "Miracle Continent?" Mu Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment before stiffening her face, "Could it be... I've crossed over?"

  "Yes."

  "......" Xiao Xiao twitched the corner of her mouth, sighed and said, "Alas, fell into a pit and crossed over. In this era, one must be cautious when entering a pit. System, is there a way for me to return?"

  "The system is unclear and requires the host to explore on their own... perhaps when they reach the level of 'god', they can return..."

  "Is that so," Mu Xiaoxiao sighed again, "forget it, let's talk about this later, these things are still a bit early for me, hmm..." At this time, the stinging sensation in her left eye also gradually dissipated. Mu Xiaoxiao relaxed her hand and asked, "System, what's going on with my eyes?"

  "Don't worry, this is just a residual symptom of the system having just taken up residence in the host's body, nothing special..."

  "Post-traumatic symptoms," muttered Xiao Xiao, plopping her butt onto the ground. "System, what functions do you have? Show me."

  As the sound of Mu Xiaoxiao's voice fell, a semi-transparent blue virtual interface appeared in front of her eyes. Mu Xiaoxiao turned her head and found that the interface moved with her line of sight, apparently it was directly projected onto her retina, so others couldn't see it.

  "The Otaku system has a total of six major functions, namely [Personal Information], [Backpack], [Mall], [Dungeon], [Brave Warrior] and [Camp]."

  On the virtual interface, these six functions formed a hexagram. Mu Xiaoxiao first opened [Personal Information]. After the interface changed, a row of information appeared before Mu Xiaoxiao's eyes.

  Host: Mu Xiaoxiao

  Title: None

  Blood type: None

  Ability: None

  Evaluation: 0th order

  "So simple attributes..."

  Below are [Arena Record] and [Dungeon Entrance].

  "The arena is like a brave fight against evil dragons, this existence similar to an instance, divided into challenge mode and task mode, winning battles or completing tasks can earn a large number of rewards."

  Brave Warrior, this name makes Mu Xiaoxiao want to mock, open the arena battle record and start the copy, find that the display inside is all zero, close it casually, then Mu Xiaoxiao opens her backpack again.

  "The backpack has three abilities: 'organize', 'repair' and 'fragment synthesis'," the system explained, "If the host's equipment or weapons are damaged, even if they become fragmented, they can still be repaired to a good condition, it just requires spending a large amount of diamonds."

  Muxiao counted the small numbers, and there were fifty grids in her backpack. At the top of the grid was "Organize" and "Repair", and below it were three horizontal bars, "Diamonds", "Crystals" and "Battle Points". "System, this should be the currency?"

  "Yes, diamonds can be used to buy props and equipment, crystals are for buying pets and mounts as well as characters, while battle points are for purchasing bloodline abilities and titles."

  "Can only be obtained from copies and Dragon Quest, huh? And there's also a fragment synthesis?" Upon discovering the fragment synthesis ability next to it, Xiaoxiao opened it up and the interface displayed: [X Fragment: 0], [Energy Fragment: 0], [Alloy Fragment: 0], [Chaos Fragment: 0], [Soul Fragment: 0]. Below them was a row of data.

  [X Fragment] —— [Can replace any fragment]

  Character Card —— Soul Shard + Chaos Shard ×50

  Pet Card —— Soul Shard + Energy Shard × 50

  Ability Card - 50 x Chaos Shard + Energy Shard

  Equipment Card - Chaos Shard + Alloy Shard × 50

  Tool Card - Alloy Fragment + Energy Fragment × 50

  "What is this?" Mu Xiaoxiao asked hastily.

  "This is fragment synthesis. Using fragments can synthesize the above five special props, and using these five special props can randomly obtain equipment, abilities, etc."

  "Random?" He originally thought that character cards and the like could be obtained by specifying certain items, but now that he's heard it's random, his interest has decreased by half. Having been influenced by domestic web games for many years, he had no hope for random draws.

  "Don't worry, host, although it's random, the acquired items are limited to anime and games, and most of them are pretty good. As long as your luck isn't too bad, even divine artifacts or powerful bloodline abilities can be easily obtained, which is why these cards are considered special props."

  "Really," Mu Xiao nodded slightly and looked at the next one, "Mall... let's see what good things there are."

  [Market] is divided into five templates, namely [Props], [Equipment], [Abilities], [Titles], [Pets] and [Characters]. After opening a few templates casually, Mu Xiaoxiao found that the powerful abilities or characters did not cost much currency.

  Boundary Yokai (Bloodline): 1000 Battle Points

  The Red Dragon Emperor's Gauntlets (Destroyer of Gods): 800 Diamonds

  Icarus (Character): 300 Crystals

  "In terms of currency, the most valuable is Crystal. The least amount of crystal can be obtained by completing tasks or Brave Warrior Dragon. The value of Battle Points and Diamonds are about the same," the system said. "Next is Instance, which refers to the world of anime and games. Only when an instance is opened can one enter it, and opening an instance requires an item called Instance Key. A key can only be used once. If the host clears the instance, it will be permanently opened, and the host can enter and exit at will."

  "The brave warrior fights the evil dragon, similar to a level-based game, with a total of ten levels. Each level has a BOSS guarding it, and defeating the BOSS allows entry into the next level. The more levels cleared, the higher the reward."

  "As for the camp, the host can be regarded as a separate base-building system, but since the host does not have a base yet, this function is useless."
