Chapter 3: Text Projection Simulation
"No wonder Cousin Xun'er is already at the ninth star of Dou Disciple!"
"Cousin Xun'er is only fourteen. If she can condense a Dou Qi vortex within half a year, wouldn't she surpass Cousin Xiao Feng in reaching the Dou Practitioner level?"
"Truly terrifying..."
As the five large characters appeared on the Magic Stone Tablet, the crowd erupted into a flurry of discussions.
Xiao Xun'er ignored the reactions of others and walked over to Xiao Feng, asking in a slightly childish voice, "Brother Feng, how did Xun'er do?"
Faced with Xiao Xun'er's cute expression seeking praise, Xiao Feng smiled and patted her little head. "Our Xun'er is, of course, the best."
Xiao Xun'er, hearing this, first smiled happily and then asked expectantly, "So... is there a reward?"
"How about I take you to the market tomorrow?"
"Okay~"
Amidst the envious gazes of the crowd, Xiao Feng smiled and held Xiao Xun'er's little hand, and the two left the square together like a pair of golden children, inseparable.
...
The golden crow set in the west, and the bright moon rose in the east.
Since Xiao Feng was the young clan leader of the Xiao family, like Xiao Yan, he had his own courtyard.
Returning to his courtyard bedroom, Xiao Feng first closed the bedroom door and then eagerly began studying his cheat.
With a thought, a somewhat rudimentary translucent attribute panel appeared in his mind out of thin air.
[Name: Xiao Feng]
[Cultivation: One-Star Dou Practitioner]
[Skill: Lion's Fury]
[Dou Techniques: Lion Mountain Shatter, Swift Wind Step]
[Merit Points: 87]
[Simulation Times: 1 (increases once per month)]
The attribute panel was very simple. Even without a "newbie guide" like in games, Xiao Feng could roughly guess what they represented.
"Lion's Fury" was the top skill of the Xiao family, a mid-level Black class wind attribute skill.
When Xiao Zhan learned that Xiao Feng had broken through to a One-Star Dou Practitioner, he directly passed this skill on to him.
"Lion Mountain Shatter" and "Swift Wind Step" were two Dou Techniques.
"Lion Mountain Shatter" was a low-level Black class Dou Technique that could condense lion-head-like energy on the practitioner's fist, easily breaking stones and monuments.
"Swift Wind Step" was a high-level Yellow class Dou Technique that allowed the practitioner to move as fast as the wind, leaving no trace.
Given that his cheat was called the "Merit Simulator," Xiao Feng guessed that "merit" was similar to in-game currency and "simulation times" were akin to game attempts.
After examining his attribute panel, Xiao Feng internally said.
I want to start the simulation!
[Ding! Randomly selecting simulation world…]
To Xiao Feng's surprise, a new blue panel appeared next to the character attribute panel, with a rectangular white box in the middle where the text was rapidly changing.
[Ding! Simulation world selected!]
Soon, the mechanical prompt sounded again, and the rectangular box displayed the five words [Attack on Titan].
[Ding! Please choose a simulation method!]
Before Xiao Feng could figure out what was happening, the system prompt sounded again, and two lines of text appeared under [Attack on Titan].
[Text Projection Simulation (no cost)]
[Body Projection Simulation (costs 100 merit points)]
Xiao Feng blinked in confusion, then looked at his meager 87 merit points and ultimately chose [Text Projection Simulation].
[Ding! Text Projection Simulation starting!]
[Day 1: You crossed over to Shiganshina District on Paradis Island. Looking at the fifty-meter-high walls in the distance, you immediately realized where you had crossed over to Attack on Titan.]
[Day 2: Penniless, you accidentally got hit by a carriage and fell in front of Carla Yeager. The kind lady saved you and took you home.]
[Day 3: After enjoying a breakfast made by Carla Yeager, you looked at this gentle and beautiful lady and decided it was necessary for Eren Yeager to have another father!]
"Ah???"
Xiao Feng couldn't help but shout in his heart, "It's slandering me! It's slandering me!"
He wasn't like Boss Cao, interested in married women. Since crossing over to the Dou Qi Continent, he had only had eyes for Xiao Xun'er, his childhood sweetheart, showing how pure he was.
Otherwise, with his status as the young clan leader, even if he didn't frequent brothels or keep mistresses, no one would find it odd if he had a few beautiful maidservants around him.
This was clearly slander, blatant slander!
[Day 4: To win Carla's favor, you volunteered to chop all the firewood and fill all the water jars...]
The Merit Simulator ignored Xiao Feng's protests and continued generating new simulation content.
[Day 44: After persistent effort, Carla had tacitly allowed you to stay in her bedroom. Eren, who listened to your stories and boasts every day, gradually accepted you as his stepfather.
Just as you were feeling life was wonderful, a loud noise came from outside the walls. A colossal sixty-meter-tall titan emitting steam appeared outside the walls.
The terrifying Colossal Titan reminded people of their fear of titans.
With a horrific roar, the towering Wall Maria was breached, and countless Pure Titans, led by the Armored Titan, stormed into the walls.
As an ordinary person, you had no way to fight the titans and could only flee with Carla and the others.
Unfortunately, you were targeted by a blonde Female Titan. To protect Carla, who had twisted her ankle, you risked your life to distract the Female Titan and were crushed into a meat patty.
You died!]
[Simulation ended!]
