[This story takes place in a parallel universe] [The Fourth Calamity] The game System, a family heirloom of the Ji clan, the House of Zhou's royal family, reactivated after lying dormant for a long time. The six-hundred-year deadline has arrived! The System has returned to the world! It's determined to help the Ji family return to their former glory and become true Sons of Heaven of Zhou once more! But what the hell?! Why do the players it summons all run off to other states without looking back? What's so great about Qin? It's full of tigers and wolves! What's so great about Chu? It's full of barbarians! What's so great about the Three Jins? Traitors and rebels! Damn it! Why is someone even running off to become a Rong tribesman?! Oh my god! Why is someone heading straight to Greece to meet some Plato?! Come on! I summoned you to restore the Zhou dynasty, not to build your own countries and conquer the world! In the twenty-first century, a game called The Rise of the Nine Provinces burst onto the scene, taking you on an authentic journey through the Warring States era. Forge alliances and rivalries as you please, choose from the Hundred Schools of Thought, and come unify the Central Plains! #This trash game's death rate is way too high!# #I just wanted to farm, so why did the Chu army show up?# #Help, I got dropped in Rong territory. What do I do?# #The State of Chu urgently needs a persuasive diplomat# #Live debate from the Jixia Academy, don't miss it# #Confucius, Mencius, Zisi, and Zhu Yan: let's see who rules China# #The Mohists beat up the Confucians# #The Agrarians beat up the Confucians# #The Confucians beat up the School of Diplomacy# #The School of Diplomacy came back with an army!# The players and the feudal lords are all fired up: Stir things up! Stir things up! Stir things up! Reform! Reform! Reform! Destroy Qin, wipe out Chu, pacify the Three Jins; the Americas, Australia, Asia, and Europe! The steppes, the islands, the Mediterranean! The Nine Tripod Cauldrons: Stop it, already!!! [A quick clarification]“Destroy Qin, wipe out Chu, pacify the Three Jins” is just because these three powers are strong, and the phrasing sounds impressive. It doesn't mean those events are guaranteed to happen, or that the states will necessarily be conquered in that order.

Montage was an unfamiliar foreign word with a French feel, and film editing was considered simple work that required no skill. The pay was meager, the job was looked down on, and it was mostly done by women. Before she transmigrated, Mercedes was a proud street loafer. After she transmigrated, Mercedes was still a proud street loafer. Her nationality changed, her race changed, the year changed, and the world changed. The one thing that never changed was her inability to find a job. After a friend who couldn't stand watching her do nothing dragged her into a film studio, Mercedes picked up a strip of film for the first time. And she never put it down again. Mercedes spent her whole life doing just one thing: defining what cinema was. Mercedes contributed enough to cinema to be recorded in the annals of art history, and remembered well into the next century. But what people loved gossiping about most was her legendary love life: how she dumped the Father of Cinema and swiftly married a real estate tycoon, how she took half his estate after he grew old and lost his looks, and how she found a boyfriend twenty-three years her junior with a fortune worth hundreds of millions. Posterity summed up her romantic history this way: Mercedes's Boyfriend Is Forever Eighteen I Raised Elephants in Ancient Times Wilderness survival in the early chapters, infrastructure-building later on.
