Dragon Raja: Dragon Slaying Begins with System Hosting

Author: Pioneer Without a Road

Summary:

In 2007, after reading his parents' repeated apologies in their letters, Lu Mingfei completely gave up.

But it seems that fate wouldn't allow him to give up, and directly gave him a hosting system to bring him back to life.

Thinking it was a dream, Lu Mingfei casually wrote down his daily life under the hosting system: [1. (Win the most beautiful girl as my girlfriend), 2. (Become a strong person like Senior Chu Zihang), 3. (Become a very rich person), 4. (Become a hero who saves the world). ...]

Chapter 1: Please Begin Your Custody Routine

Lu Mingfei's fingertip hovered above the words "I'm sorry" in the letter, as if touching the surface of a frozen river.

The sunshine that had filled his heart when he received the letter vanished, and his heart returned to its gloom.

In their numerous replies to their son over the years, his parents repeatedly used the sincere phrase "I'm sorry," a sentiment Lu Mingfei earned through repeated disappointments.

People say that pi has no end, and now, as Lu Mingfei reads the repeated "I'm sorry" in the letter, it seems he can't see its end either.

A sense of powerlessness suddenly welled up in Lu Mingfei's heart; at this moment, he seemed to have lost the will to live.

At home, his aunt was the source of his fear, a warning bell for his wonderful life, and a constant reminder that the beautiful world was an unattainable utopia.

This world is a mess, that's the norm.

At school, his cousin Lu Mingze used him as a topic of conversation, revealing that his parents had run away abroad for five or six years and had not shown their faces, making him feel like an abandoned orphan.

Lu Mingfei, who was not good at academics, family background, or personality, was like a soft and transparent jellyfish swimming in the "sea of ​​learning" at Shilan Middle School, where there were many outstanding students. The top students only needed to stir up the test papers to create a vortex and crush him.

Sometimes, it doesn't even need the eddies to destroy it; it just dissolves on its own as it swims.

It's as if life is trying to chew me up, but I just melt in its mouth.

What is the purpose of human life?

"If only I could skip these meaningless days," Lu Mingfei thought as he drifted off to sleep.

In his dream, he seemed to have obtained a AFK (away from keyboard) system that could help him skip these boring days.

Please select the daily childcare service you wish to use: 1. (), 2. (), 3. (), 4. (), 5. () ...

[Note: 1. The managed tasks system will categorize daily managed tasks into primary, secondary, and lesser-negative based on your task priority. 2. Managed tasks can be modified at any time.]

Faced with the blanks given by the management system, Lu Mingfei filled them in without hesitation: 1. (Win the most beautiful girl as his girlfriend), 2. (Become a strong person like senior Chu Zihang), 3. (Become a very rich person), 4. (Become a hero who saves the world).

When it came to 5. (), Lu Mingfei didn't know what to fill in, but it was enough.

He dreamed that after being taken over by the system, he began to exercise, learn knowledge, skills, and cooking, in preparation for pursuing beautiful girls and becoming a "stronger person".

To make money, he sells his gaming skills tutorials and game guides online.

It's possible that there isn't a truly beautiful girl in the world, or perhaps he doesn't have a set number of girlfriends, so the system simply determines that all high-value girls are potential targets.

In order to pursue all kinds of beautiful girls, he began to pay attention to his appearance and learned all kinds of flirtatious words to girls.

At the same time, he studied psychology to think about what his girls needed and what their bottom line was.

The hosting system is like a spider, carefully weaving a large web that traps girlfriends, making them unable to escape...

In the managed mission of saving the world, the managed system believes that saving the world means stopping humanity's internal conflicts and uniting as one.

So after graduating from university, he chose to enter politics, skillfully navigating the bureaucracy and blending in with the crowd, yet never forgetting his original aspirations...

As dawn broke, before his dream had even ended, Lu Mingfei threw off the covers and got out of bed.

In fact, Lu Mingfei was still a bit confused, because at the end of the dream, the hosting system seemed to have burned out its CPU, making it somewhat powerless and contradictory in the fourth task of saving the world, and it fell into self-refutation.

Because where there is positivity, there is also negativity, just as the saying in "The Last Speech" states: "Justice cannot be eradicated, because truth will always exist."

But looking at it from the other side, it also means: "Evil will never die, because desire drives everything."

Lu Mingfei even saw the hosting system, trapped in its own paradox, develop murderous intent towards all of humanity.

Since it can't solve the problem, it intends to solve the people who caused the problem.

While thinking about his dream, he began brushing his teeth, washing his face, changing his clothes, and then going out, as if he hadn't woken up properly and was still a little dazed.

As dawn broke outside, he sensed something was wrong. It wasn't even time for school yet! Why was he already up and out the door?

He took a step and started running, but Lu Mingfei was even more confused. This wasn't the direction to school! And he couldn't control his body at all!

"Stop!" Lu Mingfei thought to himself, stopped walking, and took control of his body again.

[Managed System (Version 1.0.1)]

[Please select your desired daily life scenario: 1. (Win over the prettiest girl as your girlfriend), 2. (Become a strong person like Senior Chu Zihang), 3. (Become a very rich person), 4. (Become a hero who saves the world), 5. ( )...]

[Note: 1. The managed tasks system will categorize daily managed tasks into primary, secondary, and lesser-negative based on your task priority. 2. Managed tasks can be modified at any time.]

The interface of the Dream Hosting System appeared before Lu Mingfei's eyes, and he was immediately stunned.

What is this ghost?

He rubbed his eyes, his gaze filled with disbelief.

He even wanted to slap himself twice to wake himself up, but he put his hand down as soon as he raised it. Slapping his own face would hurt so much.

I gently pinched my arm, and the pain immediately shot up the nerves and into my brain.

Lu Mingfei was somewhat relieved that he hadn't chosen to slap himself twice.

But did the dream come true? And why is that?

Looking at the system interface, he also fell into self-doubt.

He knew the general function of the hosting system because he had already seen a demonstration of it in his dream.

If it remains one of these four managed care options, he will most likely, just like in his dream, begin to study, start exercising, start thinking about ways to make money, learn communication skills, and improve his interpersonal skills...

Without hesitation, Lu Mingfei deleted the fourth option. He was still shaken when he thought of the scene in his dream where the hosting system fell into a self-paradox and harbored murderous intentions towards all of humanity.

This automated system doesn't seem very intelligent! But that makes sense, since automated systems in games are mainly for completing simple tasks.

"But this..." He didn't know what to do at this moment.

This hosting system is undoubtedly a good thing. Under the extremely rational, extremely utilitarian, and extremely purposeful hosting, he became a very successful person in his dream.

He dated several beautiful female classmates in high school and also earned a considerable amount of start-up capital.

He got into Tsinghua University, where he started a business while pursuing various beautiful girls, and at the same time became a time management master to balance the gap between them.

Of course, that wasn't enough. Several girls almost left him because they couldn't accept his womanizing ways, so he decisively went to audit psychology classes to study his girlfriends' minds...

Upon entering society, he was adept at navigating social situations, demonstrating excellent interpersonal skills, work abilities, and social graces. He earned unanimous praise from those around him and was highly regarded by his superiors, leading to his rapid promotion.

Under the system's management, his life was somewhat precarious, yet through the system's skillful control, he always managed to safely reach the other side.

His dream life was undoubtedly the envy of many; the words "successful person" were practically etched onto his forehead.

However, he couldn't remember whether he was happy or unhappy in his dream.

Chapter 2 begins hosting

A cold morning breeze blew by, and Lu Mingfei shivered.

He suddenly thought of a terrible question: was he, who was being managed by the system, still himself?

He stood there with his arms crossed, deep in thought for a long time, but he still couldn't figure out the problem.

However, he couldn't possibly not use the hosting system, and he was very firm in that belief.

He'll look down on the other player if they use cheats in the game; if you can't handle losing, don't play.

But in reality, he felt no psychological burden about having cheat codes. Although his life in the dream, which was managed by the system, was somewhat blurry, he still remembered a lot of it.

Only after reaching the pinnacle of his life did he discover that there were quite a few players using cheats in the game "Earth Online".

The system's ingenious calculations are like walking on thin ice, while some people seem to walk on flat ground all the way to the top.

There are three watershed moments in life, with amniotic fluid being the first hurdle. Getting a perfect start means you've already won half the battle and become a rich second-generation heir without any material worries.

The second hurdle is the college entrance examination. Getting into a good university and choosing a good major will secure your future.

The third hurdle is the opportunities that come after entering society. Seizing one opportunity can lead to instant success, and some people are even more so, standing in the right place at the right time, where even a pig can be blown away.

Choosing one of the three watersheds is already quite good, choosing two makes you a successful person, but Lu Mingfei in his dream has seen quite a few players who have chosen all three!

Putting aside my skill level, my luck is absolutely incredible. I didn't even turn off any cheats!

But then he thought that when it comes to the probability of luck, anything is possible with a large base number, and if the base number is infinite, then it is inevitable.

With a population of 13 billion, there are thousands of such people, even if you only find one in a million.

Looking at the remaining three managed options, Lu Mingfei hesitated for a moment, then added the managed task 4 (Become a hero who saves the world).

In the dream, he was really just demonstrating the actual gameplay, showing only some of the functions, and did not add, delete or modify the four initial tasks.

Lu Mingfei was afraid that deleting the fourth task might alter the trajectory of his life in his dream.

He was afraid of changes, afraid that the girls in his dreams would drift further and further away from him, not because of his possessiveness, but because he simply didn't want to lose them.

The beautiful girls he pursued in his high school days, though he's forgotten who they were, still hold a deep place in his heart for the genuine love and excitement he felt for them.

Especially when he finally won over the first girl, his first love, he couldn't quite describe the joy he felt, perhaps because his memory was a little hazy. The whole world seemed to brighten up, and his body felt like it was infused with new vitality.

He didn't want to lose that girl.

"Continue hosting," Lu Mingfei instructed the system.

[Start running, estimated time 30 minutes, distance 3-4 kilometers...]

The system took over his body and started running. The slightly chilly morning wind made his body feel cold, but as he exercised, his body began to heat up and he was able to resist the cold.

The system stopped walking and slowly walked back until it became exhausted.

My energy is almost depleted; the run is over. This workout is over...

My aunt was cooking breakfast in the kitchen when she heard the door open. At first, she thought it was her son or nephew getting up and didn't pay much attention. But when she realized the sound was coming from the wrong direction, she peeked out.

Seeing Lu Mingfei walk in from outside, she asked in surprise, "Lu Mingfei! Why are you up so early? What have you been doing?"

[The aunt harbors some ill will towards the host...]
