After feeling the effect of the Eye of the Genius, Chen Fann was full of confidence. The urge of finally being able to read the Old Gospel motivated Chen Fann to finish reading the 100,000 books.

With the System praising the Old Gospel, Chen Fann was more interested in reading its contents

What will be recorded in the Book of Universal Truth, The Word of Truth?

Thinking of the ‘Old Sun’s Gospel’, he suddenly remembered something. The System had said that the gospel book in his hand was only one verse of it. If he could complete it, he would be able to learn the ability to cross this dimension.

He didn’t know how many parts the Old Sun’s Gospel had, but if it was a gender- based book in their point of view, wouldn’t that mean that other gender-based books could actually be parts of the Old Sun’s Gospel?

If he could complete and read all the gospel books, after reading 100,000 books, he would have the ability to step unto a higher dimension with a single step.

Thinking of this, Chen Fann immediately switched off his phone and rushed downstairs. He excitedly went to the nearby Xinhua Bookstore.

“Host, I didn’t expect you to come to the bookstore to read books. You must have tasted the sweetness of the Eye of the Genius Student. That’s why you came to the bookstore to read, right?” At this moment, the System’s proud voice sounded in Chen Fann’s mind.

Chen Fann ignored the System. He went straight to the magazine area and found a famous gender-based book.

“System, look at this book in my hand. What kind of book is it?”

“Host, although I know that all men have this kind of demand, there isn’t even a woman in the world right now. What’s the use of reading such books?” The System looked at the charming mature woman on the cover and said disdainfully.

“This System really didn’t expect that your energy would be so vigorous. You’re still in the mood to think about these things,  at this time?”

“Host, don’t do anything disgusting in front of this System!”

Chen Fann:… “

“System, you really understand us men!”  Chen Fann gritted his teeth.

He was a little disappointed that the Old Gospel wasn’t easy to find. One of the bisexual books being a part of the Old Gospel didn’t necessarily mean that other sexual books were its components.

As expected, my thinking was so naïve.

Not only did he not find the gospel book, but he was also chastised by the system.  Chen Fann was a little saddened.

Although he didn’t find the gospel, Chen Fann didn’t plan on returning empty-handed.

He went to the nearby shopping malls , brought out and gathered all the pure mineral water and stored them  in the store downstairs.

Because everyone had transmigrated to another world, and currently there were no water or power outage, it was foreseeable that this kind of day wouldn’t last forever.

Without humans supervision, the machines wouldn’t operate for too long. If matters got serious, he could  even face the dilemma of a power and water outage tomorrow.

Water was the most important element crucial to the survival of mankind. If the water supply ceased, it would be very difficult for him to get it. He collected all the mineral water in the nearby shopping malls ahead of time. This way, he would be able to deal with its shortage for a period of time.

As for the food problem, Chen Fann wasn’t worried. Although fresh food could go bad if stored for more than few days, the supermarket’s wheaten food, instant noodles, compressed food, and dry food were enough to sustain him for a long time.

After making these preparations, it was already dark.

The quiet night, the dimmed yellow streetlights, the bustling metropolis, everything was silent like a ghost city. Looking around, there was no one.

He was not only the only one in the entire city but also in the whole earth…

The shrill cries of kittens and puppies that somehow managed to escape the transmigration sounded horrifying. Having lost their owners, they seemed to have fallen into a crazy state.

This kind of situation was scary, and it wasn’t a lie.

Had he not encountered such a bizarre thing, he would only be  but an ordinary member of the seven billion people on Earth.

In addition to having a lower sense of existence, he was just an ordinary sophomore student.

If it wasn’t for the system, he probably would have already collapsed and turned into a madman.

“System, can I really live? Can I really become stronger?”

When night comes, people begin to get sentimental.

Because they fear the darkness, when night comes, they will be afraid.

Chen Fann was no different. At this moment, he was lying on the bed, curled up, terrified and trembling uncontrollably.

He wasn’t scared during the day.

However, at night, he started to feel scared. The weak side of mankind manifested in him as  negative emotions rushed out, as if they were going to devour him.

The fear of the unseen future, of darkness, and the of the unknown.

If possible, he hoped that he would be one of the seven billion people, and not the one left alone on Earth.

“Although fear is human nature, fear cannot aid you in becoming stronger. If you have time to be sentimental, you might as well read a few more books. Only by reading and learning can you be saved. It’s useless and yet here you are hurting the spring and the autumn. ” The System said emotionlessly.

“Well, you’re right. Rather than feeling sorry for myself, I might as well continue reading and complete 100,000 books as soon as possible.”

Chen Fann quickly sprung up and picked up a stack of electric books that he had brought back from the bookstore. He quickly flipped through them.

The system was right. It was meaningless for him to be sentimental. It won’t be like the protagonist of a comic whom when he reveals his weak side, a beautiful would appear and hold him in comfort.

…

Time flickered by, and in a blink of an eye, it was the next day.

Today, he began facing  the initial crisis of survival. The power, water, air and network outages came correspondingly one after another. From morning till afternoon, and in a short period of one day, they were all completely cut off.

However, all of this was within Chen Fann’s expectations. The whole reason he had come back yesterday to read the electrical books.

He could do nothing about the gas and network outage, but the power outage was much simpler since he could still use generators to power.

After understanding the operation method of generators, it’s  working principles and how to use them. He went to the machine hardware wholesale market and drove a generator back using a tricycle.

At the same time, he also brought back a few boxes of gasoline from a nearby gas station alongside the road. Because he used a gasoline generator, he needed to add gasoline every seven or eight hours.

According to the knowledge he learned yesterday, after successfully generating electricity, Chen Fann dived into reading again.

With electricity and water, life basically wouldn’t be affected.

Right now, his sole focus was reading books. After all, the system’s super mode could only be activated after a few days. Before the activation, he could only read books and accumulate reading volume.

And just like that, five days had passed.

The system finally successfully activated the super mode.

“[Super Mode activated successfully, world information re-loaded, body attribute function activated. Host can now view the body attribute panel and understand the world’s dynamics]”
