After being formatted as a cannonfodder, I became a heartthrob

“Going back now?”guqqMzYNJjNACzewVMtfNjwpVtOowd

rPEfEjWCTflbeNt

The speaker was a young man who appeared to be under twenty, his very colors seeming fragrant. With a slender neck, small head, and long legs, he carried a youthful air. His skin was like white jade, lips stained red, pupils showing a faint reddish-brown hue. A red birthmark at his throat added an alluring touch.DmDccJgazoPNSuzmYlsDYBqDAXEmGJ

Yet his entire demeanor was one of extreme coldness and detachment, like translucent pearls.gJtUwCDKwognicVaTUDCuEasMGORbX

A slightly mechanical voice sounded in his mind as Xiao Ai, the system, spoke excitedly: “Yes, dear! Congratulations on successfully completing all eight training worlds of our Harmony System. Next, we’ll begin your true Harmony Project by sending you back to your original world.”ZCFnpXsGUWODjewrvRLnyVtrHBDOpR

After Xie Fengxing died, he learned he’d merely been a cannon-fodder supporting character in a certain fiction. Fortunately, he’d been selected by the Harmony System, which promised him a chance at rebirth upon completing all harmony tasks.WkdbaEVRspDkrjEsmlnwnneOiDwMSK

“You might not know this, but in your original world, several fictions are unfolding simultaneously—think of them as series stories sharing the same author’s universe. The author has a uniform fetish, so these are all occupation-themed stories: racing, aviation, firefighting, you name it… For example, you came from a racing story.”LPRFOveHfNPHvmQBuwnfppZJQaTthg

After being formatted, Xie Fengxing had lost all previous memories, so he reacted indifferently, merely nodding.sypvCVygjaoMLoGUCxnzPdHZzcxqUj

That sounded much more tempting.HStUyrWfoOOWKXpDMutJdVCYwySrqg

The Harmony System that selected Xie Fengxing—true to its name—required severing emotions and desires. He’d been formatted, losing not just memories but all capacity for feelings or desires. He couldn’t smile, and his body temperature was lower than normal.HFMfyYmiVRDdLthUCmuyYYUsvGQDGq

DFjmgXgNSmGMumb

Not completely emotionless like a robot—”harmony” meant eliminating romantic love and physical desires while retaining negative emotions, which ironically made him even colder.QehKvjAgUvqBCDxEtMSOdrohxqycyJ

Through eight worlds, he’d met all kinds yet never felt attraction—not even masturbation. He’d loved no one, his skin felt no pleasure, even pain registered duller.cXmwMDagahmFnRMWtHheIqnSxBJkRU

“Xiao Ai will now assign your mission,” the system said. “This world’s difficulty is highest because multiple stories intersect here simultaneously. Completing all tasks resolves the mission. Your first target is the story you originated from—Getting In.”lRmuqKCScoHXClicPYueSGnaJaoiil

Xiao Ai could read his thoughts and chuckled twice before continuing in its slightly mechanical tone, speaking with righteous fervor: “‘Get On’ is an extremely Harmony System-needing novel. It claims to be a racing story, but ends up driving a completely different kind of ‘car’ at breakneck speed.

“Love Value. When the scum gongs’ Love Value for you reaches 100, the mission is complete,” the system replied, seemingly without a shred of doubt in his abilities. “Don’t worry, you’re no longer the cannon fodder of the past. With your current skills and conditions, there’s no mission in this world you can’t accomplish.”PtyLpEFcyHwSEXXTcfatlSyoKUJwwm

Xie Fengxing had already undergone training across eight transmigrated worlds—ancient, modern, interstellar, even the animal kingdom. The system had focused on honing his survival skills, physical fitness, mental resilience, and more. In each world, he mastered a new skill. After being formatted, he became a terrifyingly efficient mission machine with an unparalleled learning ability. Multiple languages, arts, and music were child’s play to him. In mechanical control, he was a once-in-a-century genius.ZXtVprNFxzkqzhkfLToArWavdKYeKJ

“Since we’ve granted you additional benefits, it means that as you complete missions, your human senses will gradually return. For someone like you who’s been formatted, these will all be first-time experiences. Given that our Harmony System has witnessed too many people succumb to or become trapped by desire, we don’t know whether you’ll remain true to your original purpose once you experience these sensations… But you must remember: while desire may be intoxicating, only by completing all missions can you truly be reborn.”imwMDReVzkGWKWwjNRzerwWjBcFYay

After resting overnight in the system space, Xie Fengxing opened his eyes the next morning to find himself lying in an unfamiliar house.aasHoUkKtIXaDpPXwpXxYlxlRGIZCT

It was a south-facing bedroom, spacious and extravagantly decorated, with a view. Car models lined the windowsill and bedside table.LUlANbposrjgHbbeOcWcSPvcLXsMTu

He walked to the window and pushed it open. Daylight spilled from the edges of the clouds, flooding the world below. The sunset, gilded with gold, stretched endlessly across the horizon. The blazing red light fell into his eyes, igniting a fire within his already russet-brown irises.XnUNhJMqpyMtmAnCrjfHAxrhQFuZBL

He surveyed the entire house before finally stopping in front of a mirror to examine his reflection.hYWBAHUXIEszkyALixUZrzmarbeZEL

The person in the mirror had a face that was both unfamiliar and familiar to him. His attire was unconventional, somewhat sloppy, with long, messy hair dyed a yellow he thought was cool. Thick black-framed glasses obscured most of his face.bApYShoMbfyDZSyHzkMpPLAFnIdFPM

Song Yu came from humble beginnings and had relied on his financial support to climb his way to becoming a top-tier racer in the country.

That was when he realized he’d been cheated on.nUXNJbmktswRTRPJXutfBBpLGrGWBG
