Divine Powers to the Rescue: Don’t Panic, I’ve Got Powers

A good-for-nothing young man gets bound to a sharp-tongued System. Whenever he’s about to die, he just has to shout, “Editor, save me!” and a magical treasure will fall from the sky. The catch is, the side effects can be a real pain.

Chen Xiaofan, 25, unemployed, with only three digits in his bank account. His greatest achievement in life is not having left his residential compound for six months straight.

In the early hours of the morning, he absentmindedly clicked on a “Cultivation Closed Beta Invitation,” and an “Editor” who could pop up WeChat chat windows moved into his head. The System is great in every way except for its mouth, which never stops running. It mocks his tacky name, calls him lazy, and complains that he collapses after just 37 squats.
