"Dimensional Paradise is tolerant and generous, its punishments are gentle, and it rarely involves annihilation or forced execution." "The bad news is that the opposing camp is full of high-pressure lunatics struggling on the brink of death." "As a summoner, it's perfectly reasonable for me to sell everything I own to support a few powerful protectors." Chu Danqing felt that apart from being so poor that he had nothing left, he was actually doing quite well. … As a dimensional apostle, he traveled through countless worlds and saw cave beasts lurking in the deep caves, worshipping humans. I also see dragons lurking in the rivers and mountains, tigers lurking in the mountains, and the demons of the human heart causing havoc in the world. Even more insatiable is the greed of a snake trying to swallow an elephant; in the end, all good things come to naught, like a mantis catching a cicada.

Implanted prosthetics, psychics and the psychic path, space carriers, colossal wonders, technological singularity, falling stars, corrupted cyberspace... Ideals, confusion, wonder, the future. These can all be put aside for now. Song Shi made the decision happily. The first step is to restore strength. The second step is to go and greet each of your enemies from your past life. ——
