After finally finishing the first draft of his graduation thesis, Bai Yongnian fell into a blissful sleep in the early hours of the morning. But when he opened his eyes again, he had transmigrated to a Sentinel-Guide world. He spent four or five miserable days scavenging through trash without earning a cent, and nearly lost his life in the process.

Fortunately, he was lucky enough to survive, and with a powerful benefactor’s support, he successfully enrolled in the Interstellar Federation Military Academy.

During his time at military academy, Bai Yongnian relied on his patchy knowledge of Sentinels and Guides to try to live the life of an ordinary student. That was until one day, his little spider spirit dragged back a cocoon.

“So my spirit is actually a female spider,” Bai Yongnian concluded. “How is that not a kind of transgender identity?”

Unfortunately, no one here understood his humor. All he knew was that the school was temporarily going into lockdown to find the culprit who had kidnapped the spirit of the chief Guide’s younger brother, a white moth.

Bai Yongnian fell silent. He shone a flashlight on the cocoon. A white moth.

Great. He’d earned himself a disciplinary penalty.

Fortunately, the white moth Guide was kind and didn’t pursue the matter. The white moth Guide was perhaps a little careless, though, because his spirit kept getting discovered by Bai Yongnian’s little spider in all sorts of places, spun into a cocoon, and dragged back.

As time went on, the things inside the cocoons dragged back by the little spiders grew stranger and stranger: butterflies, miniature harpy eagles, dolphins... Unwrapping a cocoon every day had become a mystery-box activity.

As the little spiders kept abducting other people’s spirits, they began to acquire more and more abilities. Bai Yongnian became the only genius in the history of the Interstellar Federation Military Academy to possess spirits of four different types.

There is a one-sided crush on the gong’s side. The ending is 1v1.

Guide gong (Bai Yongnian) x Sentinel shou (Su Songlin)

Content warnings:

1. Readers who are sensitive to extremely heavy or severe gksk should proceed with caution.

2. The gong and shou dote on each other; both are strong, and the shou is not a mere background character (both are sexually inexperienced).

3. The shou appears late and has few scenes in the first half.

4. I’m a super omnivore who loves reading and eating everything, so I’m not great at identifying potential triggers. Readers, please check the rest for yourselves.

Next novel: So It Turns Out I’m the Nonhuman One [Quick Transmigration]

Han Yu, a CEO, went to sleep as usual in his two-hundred-square-meter bed. When he opened his eyes again, a rubber duckling calling itself System 111 had bound itself to him. He was supposed to travel to various little worlds and help the protagonists complete their main quests.

Han Yu: Doesn’t transmigration usually happen when someone is on the verge of death?

111: You’re a CEO, so you’re way too hard to kill. I couldn’t wait, so I bound you first~

Han Yu: ...You’re so desperate to hit your performance targets that you’ve lost your mind, aren’t you? If you’re sick, go get treated, okay?

111: Hehe~

Just as he was about to enter a little world, that damn rubber duck suddenly added something else.

111: By the way, Host, the human data in our modeling database is incomplete, so I can only randomly match you with modeling data for other species~

Han Yu: Hah, you’re telling me this so early? I thought you’d wait until I was dead to tell me.

111: Hehe~

1. [Amnesiac headless spirit-writing ghost x High school teacher born with yin-yang eyes]

111: This time, your mission is to protect the protagonist from evil spirits~

Han Yu: Wait, I’m a little lost.

On the final day before summer break, a teacher was making his nighttime rounds when he came across some students playing the spirit-writing game in their dormitory. The surrounding yin energy grew heavier and heavier. The students got scared and hurriedly stopped the game, and the yin energy disappeared too.

Believing everything was safe, the teacher went into the bathroom in the middle of the night, only to discover that his head was missing from the mirror.

Teacher: ...

He had been haunted by an amnesiac ghost who insisted that he help find its head.

After that, the headless ghost kept appearing before him with all kinds of random things in place of its head. Sometimes it was a radio, sometimes a flower...

Until one day, the teacher took a copy of the 53 practice exam book from the headless ghost’s neck.

Teacher: ...

Teacher: All right! Stop playing with the students’ study materials!

2. [Cthulhu-like evil god who usurped another’s place x High Priest of a dead true god]

111: Boohoo, the protagonist had a difficult childhood, growing up amid intrigue in the temple. Our mission is to protect this poor little thing until he grows up healthy and takes control of the temple!

Han Yu: Who’s going to pity me? Why am I a golden slime this time?

111: You country bumpkin! This isn’t a slime!

The young priest, monitored day after day, went before the statue to pray as usual. Suddenly, a low voice came from inside it: “You really are rather pitiful...”

The god granted him a miracle.

It was not the god worshipped by the temple, but a god who belonged to him alone.

“Ah, sorry. I spaced out again.” Han Yu looked ruefully at his golden hair, which had lost its shape.

“But my High Priest will forgive me, right?” he asked with a smile.

The black-haired priest, wrapped in golden, viscous goo, opened his mouth, but even his mouth was occupied. All he could produce were meaningless sounds.

3. [Abandoned iteration unit x The last technician sent to repair it]

111: This time, the mission is...

Han Yu: How did I turn into code? I don’t even have a human form this time?

111: Oh, that sort of thing? With your current abilities, you can make as many as you like~

Coming to this deserted island to repair an iteration unit that was about to be decommissioned was clearly a miserable job.

In the end, the job no one wanted fell to him. The technician dutifully went to the chip matrix, only to discover the real reason the iteration unit was being decommissioned...

After seeing that familiar face at yet another corner for the umpteenth time, the technician rubbed his forehead in frustration.

“That’s enough. I’m not leaving, I won’t shut off your power supply, and I won’t secretly report you to the company so they can activate your self-destruct sequence.”

Han Yu: “Understood, my administrator.”

“So save some materials and make fewer copies of yourself.” The technician heard footsteps behind him again.

Several identical voices spoke at once: “Request denied. Please submit a new application.”

Other worlds to be decided.
