When the system manifested ahead of schedule, Shen Ge found himself staring at a dead stray cat, his composure slipping. A disembodied voice crackled through his consciousness, cataloging the incident with detached precision. Back at his apartment complex, a cheerful security guard offered him an orange—the same moment a fresh notification exploded across his mind: 【Warning! Detected: Tier-5 Anomaly (Trait: Three Heads, Six Arms). Host's current strength is insufficient. Flee immediately!】 Shen Ge's fingers trembled as he weighed the fruit in his palm, torn between mundane courtesy and supernatural terror. The following afternoon, he wheeled a cart through the supermarket aisles, piling instant noodles and snacks with methodical precision. Another system alert blazed: 【Host has bravely infiltrated a Tier-6 Anomaly's territory and scavenged ample supplies. Reward: 1,000 system points!】 His hand froze above the payment terminal, caught between the absurdity of his situation and the weight of impossible choices.
