Urban Supernatural Powers + Play the Pig to Eat the Tiger + Lighthearted Power Fantasy + Myriad Worlds
Supernatural powers descend, and every eighteen-year-old across the globe awakens a profession. There are nine ranks, from divine to discarded. In full view of the crowd, ordinary teenager Fang Linchuan awakens the lowliest discarded-class profession: Scavenger. His status panel offers only the most basic ability to pick things up. The whole school mocks him, the entire internet laughs at him, and even his family considers him a disgrace.
No one knows he secretly possesses the one heaven-defying passive ability, All Things Return to the Pick: anything the world discards, scorns, or forgets grants him hidden peak power as soon as he picks it up. What others see as scrap metal, discarded treasures, or the remains of gods becomes an unparalleled opportunity in his hands.
From being bullied at school to gaining immunity to divine poison by picking up an old face mask; from being watched by the authorities to sweeping away powerful foes with broken keys and scraps of cloth; from a lowly scavenger to taking in countless castoffs and establishing a recycling yard, he steadily forges an invincible divine body. He keeps pretending to be a weakling of the discarded class, playing the pig to eat the tiger, delivering face-slapping moments to geniuses, intimidating the authorities, and sweeping through the city.
As the garbage passages to the myriad worlds open, Fang Linchuan steps into countless realms, picking up discarded legacies of immortals and demons, the bones and blood abandoned by gods, and the laws of expired worlds. He gathers civilizations and living beings cast aside by the myriad heavens and uncovers the shocking secret that Earth is a dumping ground for the gods. Facing the cold, supreme cleaners, he takes on the mantle of Lord of All Things Picked Up, protecting everyone who has been abandoned. He turns a lowly beginning into a legend of the myriad heavens, using the trashiest profession to pick his way to a supreme divine kingdom!
