The Little Penguin Saves the Interstellar World with Purification Powers

★ A new story set in the same world, The Lone Scholar Rules the Stars, is available for preorder. Blurb below~

■ This story's blurb ■

Chen Manman, a little penguin, was a water purifier in an escape game, responsible for purifying water sources.

One day, she transmigrated to a spacefaring era where all marine life had gone extinct.

Looking at the heavily polluted black ocean and land, she felt the tension leave her.

It wasn't much different from the situation in the game.

No need to panic. It wasn't a big problem.

As long as she kept purifying things every day, the ocean would turn blue again eventually!

Then, during a live broadcast monitoring pollution in the open sea, everyone saw a girl stranded in a remote stretch of ocean.

At first, people were terribly worried.

[What do we do? The ocean is full of toxins. We have to rescue her!]

[What could have happened to make her give up on life like this?]

Just as the Empire sent out a rescue team, people suddenly noticed something.

On the livestream, the girl had turned the black seawater in a glass bottle transparent!

The whole internet was instantly stunned!

[What the heck! How did that happen?]

[That's right! She turned the seawater in the bottle transparent!]

Chen Manman didn't just purify the water in the bottle. She dug a huge hole on the shore and purified herself a little swimming pool!

The rescue team dispatched by the Empire was urgently recalled before it even arrived!

Watching the live feed, Imperial General Gu An said solemnly, "I'll go invite her in person."

Later, the heavily polluted ocean gradually turned blue again.

In Chen Manman's hands, the ocean that had been gone for a century came back to life!

As marine ecosystems recovered, people began to hope that extinct sea creatures might return as well.

On the livestream, Chen Manman gazed at the blue ocean, leapt in excitedly, then climbed back out as a chubby little penguin.

The viewers: "!!!"

"Manman is the only marine-type person!"

That day, StarNet crashed!

■ Upcoming story blurb ■

Outwardly goofy but secretly slow to warm up, lone-wolf top student X fake-cold, truly bashful little shell

Qi Yu, convinced that a lone wolf could make it all the way from undergrad to a doctorate, was a chemistry PhD at a top-tier university.

One day, she transmigrated to a spacefaring era tormented by scorching heat.

She was also sent to a technical school in space, where she drew the ice magic program, a major no one in the entire galaxy had ever mastered.

Looking at the familiar symbols in her textbook, Qi Yu gave a scornful laugh. "Isn't this just a chemical equation? What's so hard about it?"

On the first day of school, everyone wrote off the new transfer student.

"I'll bet a hundred star credits she'll be crying and dropping out tomorrow!"

"It's ice magic! No one's cracked it in centuries. How could someone with her terrible luck possibly learn it?"

"If anyone could master it, would the heat crisis still be a problem across the galaxy?"

Later, during the technical school's annual final assessment,

Qi Yu mixed two liquids in front of everyone, instantly cooling the sweltering classroom.

A moment later, the whole campus forum exploded:

"Am I imagining things, or did the temperature just drop?"

"It's ice magic! She really learned ice magic! Could this finally solve the heat crisis across the galaxy?"

"And she didn't even chant a spell..."

Qi Yu didn't just make the classroom temperature plummet. She also turned water into snow in front of everyone!

Mu Sinian, a top student who had long struggled to find a way to ease the heat, paid Qi Yu a visit at once when he saw her magic.

"As long as you teach me, I'll do anything you ask."

Later, the extreme heat across the galaxy was brought under control, and the seasons finally returned to their proper cycles.

During a livestream, Qi Yu was asked where her partner, Mu Sinian, had gone.

Qi Yu pointed at the little shell in a glass bottle and smiled.

"Sinian, open your shell and say hello to everyone. Why are you so shy?"
