System/Transmigration
(Please don't take anything I'm writing here seriously. I'm going through a bit of a tense situation, and I'm trying to clear my head of unnecessary thoughts. This story is just another one I can drop and just forget about any day. so I hope you don't expect daily chapters or amazing grammar. Oh, I'm also using Google translate to render this story in English, so there will probably be a zillion errors.)
.....
The first signs of spring had arrived. At the entrance to the village of Espírito Santo, it was possible to see a beautiful landscape of the flowers blooming. In a poorly made hut within the village, a young man slowly opened his eyes.
Looking around him, he looked confused.
"Douluo Continent… Holy Spirit Village… Martial Spirits…"
"I never thought such magical transmigration could happen to me..." The young man muttered in a low voice.
The young man's name was Ling Yun. Originally, he was just an ordinary college student on Earth. However, while walking back to his house after classes, a red bolt hit him on the head and sent him to this place.
It is worth noting that, the person he possessed now was also named Ling Yun. Just one more name, Duan Ling Yun.
Duan ling Yun was a young orphan who was taken in by the village chief while he was abandoned inside a forest. Unfortunately, his health was very poor, and he died within minutes giving space for Ling Yun to take over his body.
Furthermore, even though he was looked after by the village chief for some time, his body never showed any signs of improvement. So, in time, everyone began to lose hope in his recovery.
Old Jack cut his living costs a lot Just so he could try to save this young man from certain death. But unfortunately there was no improvement. Each day he lost even more hope, and he really was expecting the worst for the next few days.
Ling Yun let out a light sigh. Force was the only law known to everyone in this world. Even someone with small expectations of becoming strong was greatly revered by everyone. Compared to normal humans, the current Ling Yun was nothing but a cripple with no hope of surviving.
Although he could live in this world like an ordinary person, Ling Yun knew it wouldn't be that easy. Furthermore, his illness was also something very strange that prevented him from trying to live normally.
Just thinking about how he knew this story, and how he could become the most powerful but couldn't use his knowledge. It was like giving a big, juicy piece of steak to a toothless tiger. It was of no use…
Ling Yun sighed again, his expression filled with despair.
Why did he have to face such a rough start when he transmigrated, while others had a good life after transmigration?
With his current deplorable situation, and his mental state going into continual despair, it was very likely that he would kill himself.
It would be very difficult for him to live a life where he would forever be a cripple. Also, everything becomes even worse when he gets to know the world he's in, and his future.
"Ding! The update system has been activated successfully."
A cold, emotionless voice sounded in Ling Yun's mind, causing him to go into a state of shock. Then he got an incredibly excited look in his eyes.
Ling Yun, as a transmigrator, was naturally familiar with some of the system's functionality.
Perhaps… could he, like those protagonists, live a life full of honor and glory? Or, he would also be a slave to the system like so many others..
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully activating the update system. The starter reward is now available in the form of 50 free upgrades, Do you want to upgrade?"
Ling Yun was surprised when he saw a blue panel magically appear in front of him. Also, on the dashboard was some of his basic information.
…
Host: Duan Ling Yun/ Ling Yun
age: 5
Health: 4.5 (extremely weak for a human)
1st Spirit: (Blocked)
2nd Spirit: (Blocked)
.
.
….
Ling Yun clicked on his health points to learn more about the specs, but was shocked when the system spoke up once more.
"Ding! Do you want to add an upgrade point to your health?"
Subconsciously, Ling Yun mentally nodded and then was surprised when he felt his body rapidly strengthening.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully updating once. Current Health: 14 (you are stronger than an average human)"
Ling Yun's eyes widened as he heard the system's announcement once more. So without hesitation he double-clicked on health points.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully updating once. Current health: 24 (you are almost superhuman)"
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully updating once. Current Health: 50 (Congratulations, you are superhuman)
"Ding! Unleashing superhuman abilities!"
…
Host: Duan Ling Yun/ Ling Yun
age: 5
Health: 50 (Superhuman)
1st Spirit: (Blocked)
2nd Spirit: (Blocked)
Special Abilities: Super Strength/ Super Stamina/ Super Speed/ Super Perception/
…
"Ding! Quest completed. Congratulations on a super update! Releasing knowledge of update points"
Ling Yun finally came to his senses when he heard the voice of the system. Looking at the increase in his attributes, and feeling the strength coursing through his body, he couldn't control his tears.
"Ding! Upgrade points are random. It can be received at any time and at any time. Every three days, the host will receive a single update point. There are no other ways to earn them, just waiting."
Ling Yun quickly read the new warning, and then finally decided to stop using his points on his health. By now, he was well enough that he didn't have to stay in her bed all day. Furthermore, he felt at least a few million times stronger than he had a few moments ago.
"This level of health is perfect for now, I should save some points until the day of my spiritual awakening." Ling Yun thought logically, before slowly standing up.
At the same time, a middle-aged man was slowly walking towards the hut where Ling Yun was staying. His steps were slow, fearful of spilling the hot soup in his hands.
"Xiao Yun! Granny Jack brought you some nutrient soup to help you with your recovery."
Before entering the cabin, old Jack said aloud as if he expected to wake the young man inside the house. However, in response to his voice, he heard footsteps coming from inside.
Ling Yun walked out of the hut, as if he didn't care what people thought about his miraculous recovery.
As he left, he took particular notice of the middle-aged man who was holding a large pot of hot soup in his hands. Unlike his previous life, old Jack looked even older. Clearly his coming into this world had brought about some changes, and that was what he was most afraid of these days.
"X-xiao Yun… is it really you?"
Old Jack was entranced as he looked at the young man in front of him. He ran, and then came face to face with Ling Yun as she slowly assessed him.
"Y-did you recover? But how?" he asked.
