Chapter 1 - A Second Chance?

"Uhhh—!"

Syrus Vale found himself lying on a bed inside a tight-sealed metal room.

He sat up suddenly, "Am I not dead?"

He clearly remembered that he died in a war against a Level three civilization.

He was not a simple soldier or anything, he was the supreme commander of his army and on top of that every soldier in his army was not a human but a robot.

Yes, a robot.

He had just risen to power.

Originally, he was an average joy from Earth. He was living his life. He had just turned twenty-five,when he was suddenly teleported to a distant and desolate planet.

He even got his own system, a Technological System.He started upgrading his technology tree.

And his technology tree reached level three,barely.He ,who had got arrogant by now,attacked a level three civilization and one that had entered technology level three centuries ago.

He thought that he has a system can win any battle.

But he lost..

Thankfully,the system prepared backup plan that if in any case,he was to die,his soul would be sent into a body that is the same as his.

"Thank God,If not for the system's plan,I would have died already.I can only blame my habit of rushing things that brought disasters to me.In this life, I shall be more careful and mindful."Syrus said to himself,looking white determined.

In the next second, a flood of memories rushed in.

Seven nations… trapped on the planet…

Initiating nuclear war… world's end… rise of the mutated beasts…

Syrus Vale… billionaire… built his own underground safety shelter… apocalypse arrives…

Took in three sisters… mistreated them… drugged… poisoned to death…

After assimilating all the memories, Syrus Vale still felt a bit dizzy.

This person's name was also Syrus Vale...

Firstly, technology level was once in a state similar to Earth's. However, the trajectory of its tech tree seemed skewed. Instead of advancing towards space, it charged into bio-technology.

With remarkable results, they created gene potions that could enhance lifespans and boost individual strengths.

Everything seemed to be prospering, seemingly moving towards a brighter future. Yet, unexpectedly, the new ruler turned out to be a warlord, launching nuclear warfare recklessly.

One after another, other nuclear-armed nations retaliated after suffering initial setbacks.

Thousands of mega cities were destroyed, billions of humans perished. The world was completely enshrouded by nuclear radiation. The old order shattered, and the apocalypse began.

To make matters worse, in the irradiated areas, some creatures underwent countless genetic mutations and began to feed on the nuclear radiation, breaking biological limits and growing wildly.

From that point, humanity realized their dominant status was gone; mutated beasts had become the new rulers of the planet. Humans tried to reunite, only to discover that their ultimate weapon, nuclear bombs, actually accelerated the growth of these mutated beasts. It was like trying to fend off a dog with a meat bun.

From then on, humanity lurked in the shadows, facing challenges like water and food shortages, civil conflicts, and the ever-present threat of the mutated creatures.

The modern civilization was nearly wiped out, and humanity regressed to an era where individuals and families were the primary units of society.

The original Syrus Vale, the one from before the time-travel, was once a billionaire of the old world. Although not an influential figure, he had more options than the average person.

Not only did he build a 150-square-meter underground nuclear shelter during the nuclear war, but he also spent a fortune to purchase a level-one power gene potion, gaining some capital to survive the apocalypse.

"This world… is truly chaotic…"

A few years ago, before the nuclear war had erupted, humans were relatively harmonious, retained some sanity, and lived normal lives.

But with the emergence of the mutated beasts and the ensuing chaos, violence and robbery became common. Stepping out without a gun meant being a sitting duck.

However, as time passed, the rapid expansion of the mutated beasts impacted this area.

In the past month, even the nearby trading markets were occupied by a mutated beast sized about tens of meters.

Every night, the original owner would venture out searching for food and water, but always returned empty-handed.

As the memories zoomed in, a peculiar expression appeared on Syrus Vale's face.

He realized that the previous owner seemed to be a little perverted.

The three sisters had been saved by him a year ago. At that time, the original owner was very polite and used a month's time to pursue the eldest sister, Sophie.

From then on, he began his way with her.

"F*ck, this person was actually a pervert…"

Syrus Vale was speechless; the original owner of the body was more or less violent. He used a whip to whip Sophie, burned her with cigarette butts, and even strung a ring on her groove.

His methods were cruel and perverted, making Syrus Vale feel a little uncomfortable.

"How did I die? Wait, how did the previous owner die?"

Syrus Vale sped up his browsing and quickly saw yesterday's memories.

During this month, he destroyed the agreement with Sophie. He did something to her two younger sisters, Clara and Xu Xiu Lan.

"How shameless…"

Syrus Vale was a little embarrassed. He did not expect to transmigrate to such an person.

Especially his last wish, which made him speechless.

[System.]

[The original owner's last wish has been detected: Complete a foursome with the three sisters of the family.]

[The host must complete the previous owner's last wish in order to have complete control of this body.]

"What was this person thinking…"

Syrus Vale was speechless. The original owner had such a lustful wish.

"Wait, wait, wait. I still have not figured out how I died?"

Syrus Vale realized that the original owner seemed to have suddenly fainted while sleeping.

If he did not find out as soon as possible, this clone of his would be gone.

Syrus Vale looked around the room and stood up to check it. There was nothing strange.

He thought for a moment and looked through his memories of the day before.

In order to ensure that he found the source of the danger, he carefully checked every detail, including the part where the previous owner assaulted Ava.

After rummaging through his memories, Syrus Vale found something unusual.

It was after the original owner had forced himself on Ava that Sophie came over and questioned him about why he had broken the agreement.

Not only did this person not feel ashamed, but he even beated Sophie on the spot. As he moved, he even cursed and said that he wanted to take down her third sister, Clara, as well.

Along the way, Syrus Vale noticed Sophie stared at him with killing intent.

"Did she do it?!"

Syrus Vale felt that he might have found a hint. From here, he pushed back his memories.

Soon, he compared it with his memory and found something wrong.

The original owner's underground shelter was more than 150 square meters and had seven to eight rooms. The safest place was where he was sleeping now. Even the door was made of steel.

Only he could enter and exit, and he carried the key with him.

There seemed to be a ten-minute span where the key around the original owner's waist disappeared.

If Syrus Vale wasn't able to pause his memories,thanks to the system, he might have completely missed this detail.

Beyond that, he also noticed that an hour before, when the original owner returned to his room, the cup on the table had been shifted by a inch.

This meant someone entered his room and tampered with the cup.

Syrus Vale picked up the cup from the table and examined it carefully.

He discovered a barely detectable layer of white powder at the bottom of the cup.

He turned the cup upside down and gently tapped it on the table, causing the powder to pour out.

Syrus Vale observed the substance closely. He couldn't identify it but suspected it was some kind of poison.

"So, the original owner was poisoned to death…"

"And the one who poisoned him…"

The ten minutes when the key around the original owner's waist disappeared was precisely when he was with Ava for the second time.

"It must be Sophie…."
