Chapter 1 - Chapter 1: The System Starts by Giving Suspenders Strap

Fontaine, inside the solemn Opera Epiclese.

Furina stood in the second-floor box, her voice full of flamboyance and exaggeration. She loudly asserted, "Yide, your struggle is futile.

The evidence is irrefutable. No matter how eloquently you try to argue, you cannot erase your crimes.

You are a heartless and cruel murderer!"

At this moment, Yide, under the scrutiny of the crowd, looked ashen and listless.

He helplessly repeated, "It wasn't me, really! How could I possibly bring myself to kill my future father-in-law?"

Furina turned her head, her gaze falling on Neuvillette, who stood upright on the high platform. "Chief Justice, I don't think this trial needs to continue.

Yide should pay for his crimes.

And I, as the Hydro Archon of Fontaine, have once again defended justice!"

Her words sparked a wave of applause, with countless spectators cheering.

Neuvillette did not respond immediately. His gaze shifted to Yide, who was gradually falling into despair in the defendant's seat.

He vaguely felt that this murder case was not so simple.

After a moment, he said in a deep voice, "Yide, if you cannot provide new evidence to prove your innocence, then the Oratrice Mecanique d'Analyse Cardinale will have to make a ruling based on the existing evidence!"

Yide's face turned pale in an instant, his eyes filled with horror. "I… really didn't kill him! I have nothing to do with this!"

He suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart, and the blood in his chest gushed out uncontrollably. Then, his whole body fell into a deep darkness.

Suddenly, he clutched his chest, his face showing unbearable pain. A mouthful of blood spurted from his mouth, and then his whole body seemed to be swallowed by darkness, losing consciousness.

Furina's eyes widened when she saw this scene, filled with disbelief. Even the playful white strand of hair on her head drooped weakly at this moment. "How… could this happen?"

Neuvillette's expression became serious, and he immediately ordered, "Suspend the trial and provide first aid to Yide immediately!"

His voice echoed in the silent courtroom, with unquestionable authority.

The audience was extremely disappointed by this sudden change. They had been expecting the climax of the trial, but they did not expect it to come to an abrupt end at the most critical moment.

In the audience, a man and a woman sat there with gloomy faces. They were clearly very disappointed with this outcome.

The man was about thirty years old, with handsome features and a gentle temperament, the kind of uncle type that young girls like.

He gently took the hand of the young woman next to him and comforted her tenderly, "Elina, don't worry. It will only be delayed for a few days at most. Yide will still go to the Fortress of Meropide."

However, Elina frowned slightly and pushed his hand away with some displeasure. "Rodman, please behave yourself.

It would be very bad if others saw us like this.

Besides, Yide has not been formally convicted yet."

Rodman did not stop his actions because of her refusal. He smiled contemptuously. "Didn't you see his performance in court?

He's just like a helpless child.

I really don't understand why your father insists on marrying you to such a waste?"

Mentioning her father, Elina's eyes instantly became complicated, seeming to hold some pain and sadness.

Rodman keenly captured her emotional change and said softly, "After this is over, let's go to Poisson for a long vacation together.

Relax and leave all your troubles behind."

"Okay." Elina responded absentmindedly.

Lin Yide was sinking into endless darkness, like a person about to drown.

If he had another chance, he would still rush out and save the innocent child.

He must be dead, right?

However, at this moment of despair, a cold, hard voice sounded in the darkness: "Congratulations to the host for coming to Teyvat. You have obtained the Traveler's Experience System.

Before the system starts, you will face three task options."

Lin Yide was a little dazed for a moment.

Have a drink?

Isn't that the world of Genshin Impact?

Could it be that he had actually transmigrated to this fantasy world?

While he was still in shock and confusion, three options clearly appeared in front of his eyes in the form of text, telling him that everything he had just experienced was not an illusion.

Face the Raiden Shogun Ei's Musou no Hitotachi head-on. Subdue the Geo Archon Morax. Save the Hydro Archon Focalors.

Lin Yide chose to save the Hydro Archon Focalors without hesitation.

In his opinion, the difficulty of this option was too simple. According to the normal plot development, didn't Furina survive in the end?

Wait…

It seems that Furina survived, not Focalors.

He then realized what a stupid choice he had made.

"Can I choose again?" he asked bitterly.

As soon as he finished speaking, the system's cold voice came, "Once the task is selected, it cannot be changed.

If the task is not completed, the system will impose an obliteration penalty."

Now that things had come to this, Lin Yide could only accept it helplessly.

"Then, are there any newbie gift packs or other benefits?" he asked expectantly.

According to the transmigration laws he knew, transmigrators usually enjoyed some special benefits.

The system asked in return at this time, "Did you recharge?"

This sentence directly silenced Lin Yide.

After a long time, he said,

"Does the small monthly card count?"

"Yes."

The system replied officially, "The host is gifted Suspenders Strap."

Suspenders Strap?

Work for two and a half years?

Lin Yide was full of doubts, but before he could ask the system clearly, he suddenly felt a disgusting liquid being injected into his mouth.

Although this liquid made him feel extremely nauseous, unexpectedly, it also brought a warm and greasy feeling, as if his whole body was soaked in a hot spring, making him feel comfortable.

Lin Yide tried to open his eyes, but found that his brain was blurred and he could not see the things around him clearly.

At the same time, countless fragments of memory began to flood into his mind.
