Apocalyptic Wasteland Simulator

Chapter 278 - 273 Simulation in Progress
”Choose to accelerate the simulation time.”[Ding! Simulation cooldown acceleration successful. 1,200 Simulation Points deducted. Remaining Simulation Points: 20,842. Remaining Simulations: 1.]

Chen Pingchuan immediately started the simulation.

[Enter simulation?]

[Yes] [No]

”Enter simulation, yes!”

[The host has been detected to possess the following talents, skills, and achievements:]

[Skills: Master Thief (Rule-type), Bloodthirsty Plunder (Purple), Fusion with Nature (Blue), Alteration (Silver)]

[Achievements: Worse Than a Beast (One Star), Loli Abductor (Two Star), Strongest Garbage King (Two Star), Insect Race’s Godslayer (Four Star) (Rare Unique)]

[Talents: Double Strength (Green), Heavenly Dao Rewards the Diligent (Green), Symbiosis (Silver, Light), 24k Titanium Alloy Dog Eyes (Yellow), Friend of Women (White, Growable), Dying with Regrets (Special), I Am the Heavenly Dao (Purple)]

[Currently retained simulation rewards: None]

[Random talent extraction in progress. Please select the amount of Simulation Points to invest: 0 for a White talent, 10 for a Green talent, 100 for a Blue talent, 1,000 for a Yellow talent... 100,000 for a Gold Flash talent.]

[All options have a chance of yielding a lower or higher-grade talent.]

[You have invested 1,000 Simulation Points. Please confirm your desired direction.]

[Directions include Attack, Defense, Evasion, Growth, Mystery...]

[Remaining Simulation Points: 19,842]

”I choose the Evasion direction.”

[Ding! Congratulations, you have obtained the Yellow Skill: Just a Little Faster Than You]

[Just a Little Faster Than You]: Yellow Skill. Unlimited uses. Duration is determined by stamina. The host only needs to lock onto a moving object to run at a speed slightly faster than it.

PS: When the wolf comes, you don’t have to outrun the wolf, you just have to outrun the other kids.

”Huh?”

Chen Pingchuan wasn’t surprised by the Yellow skill he received. He also wasn’t bothered by the fact that it didn’t seem very powerful. This was because he had already noticed a pattern: simulated talents were much stronger than simulated skills. However, most talents were passive, unlike skills, which could be actively used and were highly situational.

However, this skill doesn’t seem weak either.

Chen Pingchuan stroked his chin. At first glance, this skill doesn’t seem very powerful. ’Just a little faster’... what if I raced against a turtle? Wouldn’t I be ridiculously slow? But wait... what if my target was a spaceship? Or a supersonic missile? Wouldn’t that give me invincible speed? If there was another nuclear strike, could I move faster than the missile itself and avoid being vaporized?

Hmm, not bad at all.

Chen Pingchuan quickly made his final assessment.

[At night, you lie in bed tossing and turning, unable to sleep because your divine intuition tells you that tomorrow won’t go as smoothly as expected.]

[In the early morning, you wake up very early. Looking at the morning sun outside the window, your heart is as calm as the clouds. Breakfast is delivered on time, and you take the chance to pack some of the food.]

[Afterwards, you act according to the plan in your mind. You release the prisoners from the other cells. At first, they try to cause trouble, but upon seeing the followers you’ve gathered, they scatter in all directions.]

[Seeing everything going as planned, you begin to doubt whether there’s something wrong with your divine intuition.]

[Despite some doubts in your heart, you still take several newly recruited followers, planning to hijack a vehicle to travel to the Southern Alliance’s bank branch in Hantan City.]

[Unfortunately, your divine intuition proved correct, as you find Xu Lingyin at the back gate with troops surrounding the entire courtyard.]

Damn it! This woman is here to ruin my plans again.

It seems the nagging sense of unease I felt was because of her.

Could it be that my sudden pang of conscience tipped her off?

At this moment, Chen Pingchuan wanted to slap himself. I should have just quietly watched her die. Why did I have a brain fart and give her a chance? The direct consequence is that my own plan has been affected. One wrong move now, and it’ll be difficult to enter the Divine Tree Domain on schedule.

Whatever. There’s no use overthinking it. Since it’s already happened, I’ll just see how my divine self resolves it.

[Facing a military force several times your size, you remain unfazed. You give Xu Lingyin an opportunity: order her troops to lay down their weapons and come with you, and in return, you will spare her life.]

[Xu Lingyin thinks you’ve drunk yourself stupid and orders her men to capture you alive.]

[You and your followers engage in a great battle with the military. Although the individual soldiers are weak, their weaponry is sophisticated, and they fight bravely, without fear of sacrifice.]

[They manage to hold you down for a full hour before you finally defeat them, capturing Xu Lingyin in the process.]

[Pale-faced, Xu Lingyin makes a laughable threat, telling you that if you don’t release her now, her father will hunt you to the ends of the earth.]

[Your contemptuous smile damages Xu Lingyin’s pride, and she begins to taunt you wildly. Although you can’t harm her seriously due to her usefulness, a painful spanking is unavoidable.]

[Her resistance eventually gives way to a flushed face, and you discover that Xu Lingyin is a masochist. Consequently, you escalate your actions, with remarkable results.]

[During the rest of the journey, Xu Lingyin makes use of her high-class status, turning away all the teams sent to intercept you.]

[However, despite this, the initial delay she caused means you still run right into an overwhelming insect horde!]

So we were delayed after all, just as I thought.

Chen Pingchuan frowned at the simulation text, his mind racing.

My last run to the bank vault barely left me with enough time. Now, we’re leaving more than an hour late... no wonder we got caught by the insect horde. But there’s no other way. Even if we had set off right away, we’d still have to defend the bank until the horde arrived so we could hide in the vault. Going in early would be like trapping ourselves in a barrel for them to shoot.

Women are so damn annoying!

From now on, if a woman causes me trouble, I’ll just kill her. Kill, kill, kill!

Chen Pingchuan set the tone for his future actions and refocused on the simulation.

[Due to the overwhelming scale of the insect horde, you have no choice but to lead your followers in search of a safe refuge to temporarily avoid the brunt of the swarm. Fortunately, you find one.]

[You discover a research institute. And Xu Lingyin, whom you nearly killed to vent your anger, surprisingly has the access credentials.]

[You successfully take shelter in the Genetic Research Institute and proceed to uncover some incredible secrets.]
