In this age of planes where big shots are as common as dogs, domineering CEOs are everywhere, and you could toss a brick into a crowd and hit an award-winning actor or a top-tier star, Zhang Yu is as ordinary as his name.
He's just a passerby A who can't hold down a steady job, hauling bricks for a living!
One day, while laying bricks at a construction site, a brick started talking.
Brick: "Young man, do you crave power?"
Zhang Yu scooped up some mortar, expressionless. "You're the sixty-eighth System to come looking for me this month, and the weirdest-looking one. Shut your mouth before you get mortar in it."
So the brick tried a different approach, pleading, "If you turn me down, I'll have been rejected a thousand times. Then I'll be destroyed TAT"
Zhang Yu: "My pleasure."
Brick: "..." Does this man even have a heart? :)
Zhang Yu felt sorry for it and agreed to let the oddly corporeal System take him to different planes. The excuse was that completing missions came with generous rewards.
On their first trip, the brick discovered a problem. Why was Zhang Yu more familiar with this plane than it was, even though it was the brick's first visit? How did he know so many people?!
On the second plane, the brick wondered: where had this perfectly ordinary guy gotten so many fans who were crazy about him?
On the third plane, he was freaking that dragon with the treasure! Both the princess and the knight liked him!
On the fourth plane...
Brick: "Sorry, I'm numb to it all. Thanks, big shot, for helping me start over as a System. Big shot! Stay calm! Don't throw me at the zombies, I'm fragile!"
Zhang Yu: "Even if you break, I can still go back."
Brick: "TAT I'm sorry! I'm just dead weight."
Zhang Yu: I just want to quietly haul bricks. Why do those Systems keep coming to me, insisting on taking me to worlds I've already visited? Don't they know that an ordinary, peaceful life is what matters?
