"What… what is this situation?"
Ye Feng looked around at the completely unfamiliar surroundings, a sense of desolation hitting him, his face filled with shock.
He only remembered that last night, after eating his fill at home, he was about to start playing a post-apocalyptic survival game called "Remaining Fire." But as soon as he entered the game interface, his computer suddenly caught fire, and then he inexplicably fainted…
When Ye Feng woke up, he found himself lying in this dilapidated wooden shack, the hard floor pressing against him uncomfortably.
Not far from him, a small bonfire was burning, and beside it lay a small axe made of stone.
"Hmm? What's that?"
Suddenly, Ye Feng's attention was drawn to a golden light on his left, resembling a piece of paper.
"Is it blank?"
Ye Feng picked it up curiously. The golden paper began to slowly show characters.
"Welcome to the world of 'Remaining Fire'!"
"Survival for all, travel for all, random locations. Some are in oceans, some in deserts, some in small villages, some in cities, some in the belly of whales…"
"Remember!"
"In the world of 'Remaining Fire,' never let the fire die out. There are dangers and monsters in the darkness beyond your imagination. Only fire and light can give you safety!~"
"The environment here is complex and ever-changing, fraught with peril. Please find resources to survive as quickly as possible…"
"Resources can be obtained by exploring the world of 'Remaining Fire.' While the 'Remaining Fire' world is full of danger, it also holds opportunities. Treasures chests will randomly drop, containing various resources…"
"Treasure chest grades, from lowest to highest, are: Wooden, Bronze, Black Iron, Steel, Silver, Gold, Diamond,…"
"…"
"Holy…!"
After reading the content on the paper, Ye Feng was stunned. He had actually transmigrated into the game he was about to play?!
"Huh?"
Before Ye Feng could think further, another line of text appeared on the golden paper.
However, this text was not in a printed font but handwritten, and the script was delicate, looking like it was written by a girl.
"Live well. I hope you can find the legendary 'Creation Lamp'!"
…
As soon as Ye Feng finished reading, the paper he was holding suddenly ignited with a "whoosh!" and vanished in an instant.
Immediately after, a strangely shaped bracelet slowly materialized on his wrist.
"Beep beep!~"
The bracelet vibrated, and the next second, a light screen projected, displaying several options.
[World Channel] [Regional Chat Channel] [Private Chat Channel] [Trading Channel]
[World Channel]: Everyone can post messages. 10 posts per person per day (non-cumulative).
[Regional Chat Channel]: A communication channel within a certain area. Visible to survivors in the same region. 10 posts per person per day (cumulative).
[Private Chat Channel]: For 1-on-1 communication between survivors. Unlimited posts.
[Trading Channel]: Used for resource trading. Survivors can post resources they wish to trade, along with trading conditions.
"Hmm, let's see what everyone else is up to first~"
Thinking this, Ye Feng clicked on the [World Channel].
"Holy crap, what kind of shithole is this!"
"Where is this? How did I get here? Am I dreaming?"
"Is this some kind of elaborate prank show? Hey, I didn't sign up for this, let me out, or I'll sue you!"
"Damn it, who brought me here? Do you know who I am? Believe it or not, I can get you killed with one phone call! Get me back now!"
"Hey upstairs, who the hell are you to be so arrogant!"
"And who the hell are you to talk to Master Hu like that?!"
"Everyone stop arguing. Tell me, where are you guys right now~"
"I'm in a small wooden shack in a forest. According to that golden paper, I can't let the fire die out. I'm planning to chop some wood outside to burn later!~"
"Wood? I'm in a vast desert! I have a small wooden shack too, but there's not a single blade of grass outside. Where am I supposed to find wood? Damn it!"
"I'm at sea. Why do you all have wooden shacks? I only have a raft, and there's a waterspout not far away, moving towards me…"
"Wait, is your bonfire burning? Why did mine go out?"
"Is it bright where you are? And you have a bonfire? I'm in a dark, hot, steamy place. The ground is squishy and it's moving~ and my foot is being corroded by some liquid, it hurts a lot!" Su Dan Novel Network
"Buddy, aren't you in the belly of a whale? I just saw that on the paper!~"
"I also think that guy is in a whale's stomach!~ His foot is probably corroded by whale stomach acid~"
"Guy upstairs, where are you going to get wood?"
"That guy hasn't replied for a while. Did he fall into the whale's stomach acid entirely?"
"Hey, buddy, say something~"
"…"
"I envy you guys in the forest. I'm in the desert, I'm so thirsty, can someone give me some water?"
"Buddy, this is the chat channel, you should go to the trading channel~"
"Haha, I'm lucky, there's a river next to my shack!"
"What the hell, that good?"
"Wait, there are sharks in the river, looks like Great Whites!"
"What sharks? Stop talking nonsense, Great Whites live in the ocean, how can they be in a river!"
"Exactly, does anyone have common sense? Great Whites in freshwater die within a short time!"
"Why would I lie to you? There really are sharks, and so many!~ I just saw a monkey get bitten to death by a shark that jumped out!"
"Hahaha, I'm the best, I'm in a city, although it feels a bit rundown… Wait, damn it, there are zombies…"
"City guy, are you okay?"
…
Immediately after, Ye Feng opened the [Regional Chat Channel].
"What is this place? It's so scary, I'm so hungry, there's nothing to eat. Can someone give me some food?~"
"I want food too~"
"I'm not hungry, but I'm so thirsty~"
"Can someone take me home? My dad is Ma Teng, he's very rich, he'll give you money~"
"My dad is a powerful official, take me back, and I'll make you a high-ranking official…."
"I should have listened to my dad, I shouldn't have shown off that I had two cows. Now I've been kidnapped, sob~"
…
Ye Feng quickly scanned a few glances and stopped looking.
Because these messages were all similar, basically discussing what this place was and what had happened.
Then, Ye Feng opened the [Trading Channel], but it was empty, with no one selling resources.
"This…"
After looking around the small wooden shack, Ye Feng was at a loss.
Because according to the paper that had burned away, the world of "Remaining Fire" was fraught with peril, its environment complex and ever-changing, with monsters. He had to find resources to survive as quickly as possible.
But there were no survival resources inside this small wooden shack.
Nothing to eat, nothing to drink, nothing to wear. Only that crudely made small stone axe…
"Ding!~"
At this moment, a clear chime sounded in Ye Feng's mind.
"Host detected and meets preset conditions. System activating. 1%, 20%…40%…."
After the chime, a mechanical voice sounded.
…
