Check the Database, Master of Destiny

Boom~!

A low, muffled rumble echoed through the corridor.

Qin Luo raised an eyebrow and turned to look at the little boy riding a small UFO hovercraft ahead of him, surprised. "The Alliance has a place like this?"

"Of course."

The boy steered the hovercraft to float not far in front of Qin Luo and explained, "The Alliance has been around for over 60,000 years. All its historical records and archives are stored in this most special of places."

He then sighed and added, "Originally, we didn’t have to go through all this trouble because everything was digitized."

"But there was no choice. We were hacked once."

"Even my [God-tier Black Tech System] couldn’t stop them. In the end, we had no choice but to destroy the digital archives."

Qin Luo: "........."

Qin Luo seemed to recall something and coughed lightly. "Was that hacker ever caught?"

"No. We suspect they were also a Transcender—extremely dangerous."

Qin Luo nodded. "How the times have fallen."

"Another time, the entire headquarters’ network crashed. We thought it was another hack."

"But guess what? Someone had unplugged the main network cable."

"The security cameras only caught a shadow, something like a hand."

Qin Luo sighed. "Morals truly are in decline."

Time passed.

The two of them walked through one dimly lit corridor after another, the flickering lights accompanied by the occasional buzz of electric currents.

Finally, after passing through a series of heavy mechanical doors, Qin Luo followed the little boy into an impossibly vast space.

The silence here was almost eerie, broken only by the faint hum of air flowing through the ventilation ducts above.

Towering metal shelves stretched from floor to ceiling, their cold, metallic surfaces gleaming faintly in the dim light. Ancient scrolls, glowing blue crystal slates, and palm-sized smart chips were meticulously arranged on the shelves.

"Well, this is the Alliance’s most important archive."

The boy floated to the side, waving his small hand proudly as if showing off his most treasured possession. "This place was built using my Black Tech System and an Absolute Barrier System—making it the most secure archive room ever!"

"Every critical piece of information from ancient times to now is stored here—from star charts of old interstellar voyages to mysterious relics left behind by prehistoric civilizations. You name it, we’ve got it!"

"You wouldn’t believe how archives used to be stored back in the day."

As he spoke, he gestured dramatically with his hands.

Qin Luo, meanwhile, strolled forward leisurely and pointed at one of the shelves. "What’s recorded in this section?"

Seeing his interest, the boy grew even more excited and floated closer. "This row?"

He pointed to the towering metal shelves on the left, filled with glowing crystal slates. "These contain records of all known superhumans—whether they can control fire, reshape mountains with their minds, or anything else. Every detail, from the moment they awakened their powers to every step of their progression, is documented here."

Qin Luo picked up one of the crystal slates and asked curiously, "Superhumans? Like those who returned from another world in Cherry Blossom City?"

"Oho, so you know about dimensional travel too."

The boy looked surprised. "Yep, just like them."

"Oh?"

Qin Luo put the slate back and turned to the boy. "From the way you say it... does the Alliance have the technology to travel through time?"

The boy nodded. "Actually, my Black Tech System can build a time machine. But unfortunately, I’m stuck on a progress lock."

"Stuck where?"

"The main quest requires me to fall in love and get married... I’m only eight! Eight, you hear me?!"

The boy looked like he was about to faint from frustration. "How am I supposed to play the game if the system just bans me like this?!"

Qin Luo gave him a once-over. "Come to think of it, I never asked your name. You are...?"

"Just call me Little Ke."

Qin Luo nodded. "So, the system doesn’t have age restrictions for its users?"

"Nope, not at all."

"Honestly, I never expected to be chosen by the system either."

Little Ke tapped his wristwatch, and a lollipop popped out. He licked it a few times before continuing, "But I think it’s pretty fun. Everyone here is like-minded."

"The pain of not being able to connect with kids my age is something normal people just can’t understand."

"Anyway, let’s get back to dimensional travel."

Little Ke excitedly floated to the right and patted a large metal crate. With a click, he opened it, revealing a stack of thin crystal slates.

"I got bored once and went through the entire archive."

"And I found that, throughout history, there have always been certain individuals who appear at key moments—people we call the [Chosen Ones]."

Qin Luo’s interest was piqued. "What kind?"

"We usually refer to them as... transmigrators!"

Little Ke handed one of the slates to Qin Luo. "You can channel your spiritual energy into it to see."

Qin Luo examined the slate, which bore a single name:

[Liu Mang]

Interesting.

He infused it with his energy.

In the next moment, the surroundings began to shift. A flash of light filled Qin Luo’s vision, and the solemn quiet of the archive vanished, replaced by solid ground.

In the distance, rolling mountains stretched beneath swirling mist—an entirely unfamiliar, fantastical realm.

Not far away, a man was sprawled on the ground, his modern clothes torn and covered in dirt and grass.

His eyes were wide with shock and confusion as he muttered, "Wh-where is this? I just stayed up late playing a game... how did I end up here?"

"Wait... don’t tell me..."

He slowly got to his feet, his expression shifting to excitement. "I’ve transmigrated?!"

Qin Luo: "......"

Classic opening.

Still, there was one thing he was curious about. Putting the slate down, he asked, "How did you find these Chosen Ones?"

"That’s easy."

Little Ke grinned. "Remember when Uncle Ouyang announced during the assembly that the leader granted you and Miss Su SSS-level clearance?"

"Before you two arrived, since the founding of the Alliance, including Uncle Ouyang, there were only five SSS-ranked Transcenders in total!"

"And one of the remaining four..."

Little Ke’s expression turned serious. "She possesses the ability to see through fate."

"Her system is called..."

"[The Ultimate Fate System]."

"Rumor has it, every single record of the Chosen Ones in this archive was documented by her."

"She’s the kind of existence that transcends fate itself—no one even knows how long she’s been alive."

"And I’ve also heard..."

Little Ke’s voice lowered. "She can manipulate people’s destinies, altering their original paths. Her abilities are terrifying."

"But there’s a condition—the target’s luck must be inferior to hers."
