Devouring Stars, becoming Luo Feng's golden finger

Jiangnan Base City, Yangzhou City.

Yi'an District, First High School, June 9th, the last day of the National Higher Education Entrance Examination in China.

In a certain examination room, after the papers were distributed, Luo Feng took a deep breath and thought to himself, "Only this math exam left."

"Work hard, keep going!" After silently encouraging himself, Luo Feng began to focus on the questions.

The classroom was very quiet, highlighting the sound of writing and breathing.

As time gradually passed, Luo Feng, who was immersed in solving the problems, suddenly felt his body temperature rising, feeling uncomfortable all over, his heart beating faster, and his vision becoming somewhat blurred.

He subconsciously looked at the watch on his left hand and found that the 'pulse' number displayed on the screen was constantly soaring, and his expression changed slightly, as if he recalled the two sudden comas he had experienced as a child.

"I feel so uncomfortable, no, no, I must not faint now."

However, the severe headache and uncontrollable body were completely beyond Luo Feng's control, and he eventually fainted in the examination room.

The invigilator, hearing the sudden noise, quickly walked over and, finding that a student had fainted, became anxious. While shouting, he took out his mobile phone and began to dial the hospital's emergency number.

At that moment, a subtle golden stream of light leaped out of space and drilled into Luo Feng's mind, which was in a coma, merging deeply with it.

No one noticed anything unusual during this process, and even the universe did not record this scene, as if the golden stream of light had never appeared.

Therefore, even if a powerhouse above the level of a Universe Master were to perform a space-time reversal, they would not be able to find any clues.

"Sigh."

"Sigh!"

"Sigh"

Bai Chen didn't know how many times he had sighed.

In the void, without a real form, only the soul body of Bai Chen sat cross-legged, feeling like he wanted to cry but no tears came out.

The good news was that he had transmigrated into the Swallowed Star world and even brought a cheat.

He thought he could traverse the starry sky and become a peak powerhouse in the universe like the future City Lord Luo.

But he never expected that something went wrong during the transmigration process, and his cheat actually shattered?!

Seeing his cheat shatter, Bai Chen, without protection, was about to perish in the torrent of time. At the critical moment, Bai Chen's soul unexpectedly fused with the shattered cheat, becoming the spirit of the cheat, preventing the cheat from completely collapsing, and allowing him to barely survive.

Then, he possessed Luo Feng, binding himself to Luo Feng.

"From a protagonist with a cheat to someone else's worker, I'm so unwilling" Bai Chen felt helpless. He saw the outside world through Luo Feng's perspective.

At this time, Luo Feng had already woken up in the hospital bed. Learning that he had fainted in the examination room, his face was full of loss and unwillingness, while his father, Luo Hongguo, and his younger brother, Luo Hua, were comforting Luo Feng.

"No, I have to cheer up!" Bai Chen took a deep breath, if he still had breath.

"No matter what, it's good to be alive!"

"And possessing Luo Feng... Luo Feng is the protagonist of Swallowed Star, with infinite future achievements. Possessing him, maybe I can get out of here with his help." Bai Chen's mind raced.

Thinking like this, the future might not be all dark. Bai Chen comforted himself.

Calming down, Bai Chen then had time to figure out the function of the cheat. - No, now he and the cheat are one, the cheat is equal to him, and he is equal to the cheat. This should be his own ability.

This cheat didn't have a name, but as the spirit of the cheat, Bai Chen roughly knew the abilities he now possessed -

There were only two abilities.

The first ability was: "Creation"

"Consuming some kind of special energy, you can generate all kinds of items."

This 'item' encompasses everything, whether it is inanimate, animate, or even a concept, it can be generated.

"In other words, it all depends on the imagination to create? As long as there is enough special energy, I can create it?" Bai Chen's heart stirred, exclaiming awesome.

"As long as there is enough special energy, I can recreate the Star Tower!"

"And what other novels, anime, and movies I have seen, including physiques, divine powers, techniques, treasures, and even talents, I can create them all."

Bai Chen marveled, feeling like he was about to ascend to the heavens.

But then he thought, originally he could have been awesome all the way with the ability of this cheat, but now he can only possess Luo Feng and watch Luo Feng use his ability, and he has to let Luo Feng use it.

After all, Luo Feng is now his host. To obtain special energy, he can only rely on Luo Feng. This is the underlying rule of the cheat. Even if Bai Chen is now one with the cheat, he cannot change this rule and can only abide by it.

Isn't this also a kind of awesomeness.

For a time, Bai Chen felt even more miserable.

Taking another deep breath, Bai Chen, who had recovered, sensed his second ability - "Task System"

"By setting tasks, and then the host completes the tasks, you can get task rewards."

"Wait." Bai Chen felt his ability and suddenly realized the essence of this ability.

The task rewards that the host obtains are not obtained out of thin air, but Bai Chen, as the cheat, secretly steals special energy from the outside world based on the magnitude of the host's influence on the outside world, and then uses this special energy to create task rewards for the host.

Bai Chen felt that this special energy could perhaps be called: the Power of the World? The Power of the Source? The Power of the Universe?

However, the name is not important, what is important is that Bai Chen discovered the blind spot.

"Can I take a cut from it?" Bai Chen muttered to himself.

Obviously, it was possible, because he himself was the cheat, and he set the tasks, task rewards, and so on.

Except that he couldn't leave Luo Feng's body and could only rely on Luo Feng to obtain special energy, Bai Chen himself had no restrictions.

"Special energy can create any item I can imagine..." Bai Chen's eyes became brighter and brighter (if he had eyes).

"Then can I create a 'special ability that allows me to break away from Luo Feng and transform into a human'?"

Bai Chen felt the strength of his 'creation' ability and had a definite feedback in his mind.

It's feasible!

When God closes a door, he opens a window!!

Although it requires an extremely massive amount of special energy, at least it gave Bai Chen a possibility, and that was enough!

In the void, the soul body of Bai Chen felt a little relieved.

Otherwise, being trapped in this space forever would undoubtedly be a punishment.

Outside, it was already evening.

After dinner, Luo Feng entered the bedroom and told his family that he wanted to be alone for a while before closing the door.

Luo Feng's house was only 36 square meters in size, with one bedroom and one living room. Luo Feng and his younger brother, Luo Hua, slept in the only bedroom, while his parents slept on the old sofa in the living room that could be flattened into a bed.

In the living room, Luo Hua sat in a wheelchair, accompanying his parents. Looking at his older brother's back, his eyes were helpless and full of heartache.

Luo Hongguo and Gong Xinlan, on the side, had worried expressions, wanting to say something.

"Don't worry, Mom and Dad, my brother is just a little depressed. Let him recover. Let's not bother him." Luo Hua comforted his parents.

"Alas, that's all we can do." Luo Hongguo said helplessly.

Clearly, in the afternoon at the hospital, the eldest son had a calm expression, saying that it was okay, saying that this year's math was very difficult, and although he missed a few questions, the First Military Academy was likely hopeless, but there might still be a chance to enter the Second Military Academy.

Now it seemed that the son was just pretending, just so that he, as a father, wouldn't worry.

Inside the simple but warm little room, Luo Feng took a deep breath, his expression somewhat nervous.

Unlike the emotional downturn that his parents and younger brother, Luo Hua, thought, Luo Feng's eyes revealed a trace of apprehension and uncertainty.

"Are you still there?" Luo Feng whispered cautiously.

"...Just talk in your mind, I can hear you." Inside Luo Feng's body, the soul body of Bai Chen responded with his legs crossed.

Several hours ago, after careful consideration, Bai Chen decided on the method of communication with Luo Feng.

That was, he would personally stand in front and communicate with Luo Feng, instead of hiding behind the scenes, acting as an emotionless and unintelligent cheat.

There were many reasons for making this decision, and the biggest reason was that Bai Chen couldn't stand the loneliness and loneliness in the void.

Being in the void, if he couldn't even speak, then over time, Bai Chen would probably go crazy.

Rather than suddenly jumping out later because he couldn't bear the loneliness and loneliness, it was better to jump out now in the first place.

Luo Feng at this time was still very naive, well, naive also meant easy to fool.

Hearing the man's voice appear in his mind again, Luo Feng's heart skipped a beat. Sure enough, he hadn't misheard, it wasn't an illusion!

Luo Feng immediately asked impatiently in his mind, "Who exactly are you? How did you appear in my body?!"

After the Great Nirvana, the entertainment industry on Earth was in decline, martial arts and becoming stronger were deeply rooted in people's hearts, and there were martial arts gyms everywhere. Even elderly people in their sixties and seventies insisted on exercising. Although there were novels and anime, Luo Feng, who was only eighteen years old, simply didn't have the energy to come into contact with them.

His family was so poor, his father, Luo Hongguo, and his mother, Gong Xinlan, worked overtime every day, and his younger brother, Luo Hua, was disabled. Luo Feng's goal had always been to get into the First Military Academy and then change his family's living environment. Therefore, he studied hard at school, and after school and during holidays, he either went to the Extreme Martial Arts Gym to exercise or worked as a tutor to earn money. Where did he have the time and energy to read novels and anime?

Therefore, Luo Feng had no concept of systems, cheats, or old grandpas. He was just nervous and uneasy about the voice that suddenly appeared in his body.

Bai Chen could feel Luo Feng's nervous mood. After pondering, he said,

"You will know my origins later. Now, you just need to know that I can help you become stronger."

Explaining the origins now wouldn't make much sense. After a deep trust was established between the two, many things would come naturally.

"Help me become stronger?" Luo Feng asked hesitantly.

"Yes, help you become stronger." Bai Chen affirmed.

"Why should I believe you? And if you help me become stronger, you will definitely need me to pay a price. What is the price?" Luo Feng wasn't stupid. Or rather, he was actually very smart, otherwise he wouldn't have been confident in getting into the First Military Academy. Those who aimed for the First Military Academy were all elites, not inferior to the top students of Tsinghua University and Peking University in his previous life. Plus, the children of poor families matured early. Although he was young, Luo Feng knew that there were many dark things in the world and was much more mature than the average peer.

"Price? Of course there is a price." Bai Chen smiled. As expected of the future Lord Luo, still so young and naive, but still not so easy to fool. After thinking about it, he responded,

"However, you can't afford this price now. You need to get stronger before you can help me."

Luo Feng fell silent after hearing the response from the mysterious voice.

Indeed, what did he have now that was worth this mysterious being's desire?

However, Luo Feng still had a doubt. He asked Bai Chen again in his mind,

"Then... then why did you choose me, instead of choosing someone else?"

Hearing Luo Feng's question, Bai Chen couldn't hold it in anymore. He didn't want to choose. Why be a cheat when he could be a human?

But he had no choice. If he didn't merge with the cheat, then in that situation, he would definitely have been annihilated in the torrent of time. To survive, he had no choice!

As for why he ended up binding with Luo Feng... Bai Chen guessed that it might be because Luo Feng had great luck, instinctively attracting the cheat?

Or perhaps it was because he himself was a native of Earth in his previous life, so after arriving in Swallowed Star, he directly located Earth, and then Luo Feng was lucky enough to get his binding?

Bai Chen didn't bother to guess the reason. After a moment of silence, he replied, "Because you are the most talented person on this planet. Possessing you, there is a slight chance to help me in the future."

This planet?! Could it be that this mysterious being in his body came from outside the Earth??

Luo Feng couldn't help but swallow. This kind of secret was undoubtedly shocking news for him, who was still just a high school student.

"Are you... a being from outside the Earth?" Luo Feng asked nervously.

That's right, how could there be strange beings on Earth that could possess people? He had never heard of such a thing.

"...Let's wait until you become strong enough before asking this question. There's no point in asking now." Bai Chen replied.

Luo Feng was silent for a moment, and his emotions calmed down.

That's right, now he was just a senior martial arts gym student, not even a martial artist. What if he knew the world outside the Earth?

Even on Earth, he was a bottom-level existence.

"Then, what method can you use to make me stronger?" Luo Feng asked the question he most anticipated in his heart.

Although he was still a little worried about the mysterious being in his body, as he said, he had no ability to resist now, and no power to have an equal dialogue with the mysterious being in his body.

Instead of worrying, he should think about how to use this opportunity to make himself stronger, and then let his parents live in a big house and cure his younger brother, Luo Hua's, disability!

Just a simple sentence.

1. The protagonist, Bai Chen, obtains energy is his ability as a cheat, not stealing Luo Feng's things. If he's stealing, it's stealing the original universe's energy.

2. This book leans towards a behind-the-scenes narrative. Bai Chen's character is somewhat of a mischievous spectator, and his relationship with Luo Feng is that of a mentor, friend, and father figure. The plot largely revolves around Bai Chen helping Luo Feng become the 'Dragon-Sky' Luo, with Bai Chen being Luo Feng's golden thigh and major backer. As far as Bai Chen is concerned, the working-class Luo only needs to 'fight' in the front lines, while Bai Chen has much more to consider, such as how to obtain more amusement.
