[Viral Memes] + [Cosplay] + [No Saintly Heroics]
Zhong Gui transmigrates into a world of viral memes. He alone understands what they really mean. In this despairing age of Great Zhou etiquette, deep gloom, and keeping it together, he has to hold it together!
“Taking the college entrance exam? Red King will arrive on Earth in three hours? I have to find a hamburger and put an end to the Sorrow of Stopping War once and for all!”
The teachers and students below are overjoyed? Wrong. With Red King rampaging, all they feel is despair. Just then, a man appears in a tailcoat, holding a hamburger and shouldering the fate of everyone.
“Everyone, stand back. I’ll take over the battlefield from here. Drop the hamburger on the school building, and I’ll pin Red King down in the No. 2 Middle School exam hall.”
…
“At a time like this, you’re still thinking about hamburgers? What a dead-last ringleader!” [Mockery +1]
“Your brain’s fried, damn it~” [Contempt +1]
“Are you even human? Even the back-handed possum can’t stand this. It’s shaking its head at you.” [Confusion +1]
[Emotion gauge full. You have perfectly mastered the viral meme Sorrow of Stopping War, and gained Red King’s power and infinite hamburgers!]
“I don’t eat beef. Your level is too low to understand the core of these memes. It’s only natural you can’t do it. The gap between us is like the gap between ordinary people and viral memes.”
…
“I hate apologies after the fact most of all. Kill!”
Zhong Gui: “What if, and I’m just saying what if, I had a hamburger?”
“So good!” [Happiness +1]
…
Zhong Gui: “Once I reach the next level, I’ll never go to the big bathhouse again.”
“Why?” [Confusion +1]
“Because the secret of heaven must not be revealed.”
…
