Chapter 2: The World
Standing on the busy cross-street, feeling the sportswear soaked in sweat and sticking to the body, Wanli's eyes were a little confused with a pair of dumbbells.
Hey? Dumbbell?!
"Hey, big company, just let me get a pair of dumbbells casually! And Manager Jiang, obviously a man with five big and three rough, just play tricks for me, whose standard pinyin is that taste?! This interview is purely a delay in time, isn't it okay to hand out my flyers and set up my small stall? Wanli raised his somewhat sour arm: "Forget it, don't be angry." A pair of steel dumbbells, this wave is not a loss. ”
The red light on the other side of the street turned green, Wanli walked across the road with dumbbells in his hand, and was scolded for failing the interview, and all kinds of melancholy in his heart turned into a silent sigh: 'There is no one who is so miserable with the reborn...... I'm going to kill that turtle grandson absolutely, absolutely! ’
……
Wanli is not a person from this world.
In another world, he lived for 23 years, and his name was Wan Liyang.
In that world, he had a happy family and an ordinary life. Ordinary finished elementary school, junior high school, high school, was admitted to an undergraduate university that was not good or bad, and spent four years of college in an ordinary way to get a graduation certificate. If nothing else, he will find a job with a monthly salary of about 4,000 in an ordinary way, and then marry a woman who is neither beautiful nor ugly......
But accidents always happen inadvertently.
Wanli still doesn't understand, how can you get lost when you take the high-speed train home?!
The high-speed train must have been speeding that day, the body was running too fast, and the soul didn't keep up!
As soon as his eyes were closed and opened, he became Wan Li Yang in this parallel world, in 2005, 6 years old, orphaned.
The only thing to be thankful for is that his predecessor through rebirth is the only normal child in the entire orphanage abandoned children, no intellectual defects, no physical disabilities, and no other problems except for mild autism. This allowed him to enter the campus shortly after being reborn and learn about the world more quickly.
Wanli was also half an otaku in his previous life, and he read many novels that passed through rebirth and went to the pinnacle of life. This world looks exactly the same as the previous life at first glance, but just as there are no two identical leaves, Wanli does not believe that there are two identical worlds, and Goldfinger definitely exists!
As a player who came out of the orphanage, Wanli tried his best to understand the world while showing his 'intelligence' through the exam. The history is similar, the place names are similar, there is the Internet, there is Baidu, and even the familiar songs and film and television works exist......
Just when Wanli was stunned and wanted to carry out his life as a primary school bully to the end, the discussion of cartoons among several classmates attracted his attention, and the names that came out of their mouths Wanli had never heard of them at all!
At that time, it was strange for thousands of miles, aren't there only a few children love to watch?
Didn't you see the big-headed son and the small-headed father?
What's that?
Sanmao Wanderings?
Who is it?
Ultraman should know, right?!
What's slow?
Wanli's heart is ecstatic.
He took advantage of the school style to run to a nearby manga booth to verify: there is no Saint Seiya! No Detective Conan! No Dragon Ball! Not only that, but the only dozen or so manga in the manga pavilion are also low-level and immature, this is the world where the manga animation industry is withering!
Reborn in a parallel world, the restless heart caused by helplessness has finally been appeased. I can't remember anything about the cartoon Wanli I watched in my previous life, but I can still remember the anime Wanli I chased after me!
He doesn't have any big ambitions, he doesn't want to become a great cartoonist, and he doesn't want to revitalize the comic industry on his own, he just hopes to draw two big IP comics in the future, and then lie on the royalties and wait for death, and it is best to have the spare energy to repay the orphanage that adopted him, that's all.
If you want to draw comics, you naturally have to learn it.
As a reborn, it is not difficult for pit elementary school students to be willing to pay a little popsicle money, and after buying a 'zero-based beginner introductory drawing comic hand-drawing tutorial' with a dozen five cents, Wanli began to teach himself comics.
That changed when he entered junior high school. The orphanage's control of Wanli was relaxed, and he could go out and find some part-time jobs to save some savings. Saving money and learning comics, this was all the life of Wanli at that time. It was a hard time, a part-time job, and even harder when others didn't understand...... Wan Li had never suffered this kind of grievance in his previous life, but he persevered!
Wanli's performance in the high school entrance examination was very poor, but he was not sad, because his life finally saw the light of day - the comic book was completed!
However......
On the night of June 30, 2014, in the square of a community in Bincheng, a red-haired man suddenly fell from the sky, causing the uncle and aunt who were dancing in the square to panic. He didn't care about it, and danced an awkward dance to the music.
'I planted a seed, and finally it bears fruit, and today is a great day......
After the high school entrance examination, Wan Li created his first comic work during the day, worked at night to make money, and happened to set up a stall at the edge of the square that night to sell light sticks for children to play, and clearly saw the red-haired man's face that seemed to be smiling but not smiling through the fluorescence.
Wanli with a big heart thought it was a prank made by some bastard who didn't do things lightly, and he thought it was funny enough to add some material to his comics.
But the subsequent development caught him off guard. The red-haired man is actually a visitor from outside the world, and the day after the dance, he dropped something in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. It is impossible to know the exact circumstances of the situation, but it is commonly referred to as a magic box thrown by visitors from outside the sky, because it brings with it a gas that does not exist in the first place!
This gas fills the air, and people are surprised to find that their constitution can be nourished and improved by it. People panicked, people rejoiced! The vast majority of people call it Reiki, while a few people think of it as 'demonic energy'.
But even those who have the most malicious speculation about the arrival of visitors from outside the world can't resist the temptation of becoming stronger and prolonging their lives in the end!
Without the slightest precaution, the era of cultivation has just begun!
When Wanli finished drawing the first episode of the first work in his life step by step, and went to submit it with great anticipation, he found that the comic magazine had actually closed down......
'The kids have gone to practice, comics? No one was watching it in the first place, and now? Scold! Don't draw children, you'll starve to death if you draw comics......
Miles:???
Wanli, who has always had no ambitions, set a grand ambition for the first time that day: one day in the future, he must kill the bastard who threw the magic box, and then put his ashes in the box!
