Chapter 2: Synthetic transformation table

Yang Yi opened the gift package, and with a flash of light, a familiar object appeared before his eyes.

“Congratulations! You have obtained — ‘Chocolate Generator’ * 1.”

“Chocolate Generator: Developed for those suffering from constipation. Simply crouch and right-click to continuously produce fresh ‘chocolate.’ Production volume depends on your hand speed. Note: Make sure you’ve eaten your fill before using, and always be mindful of your life safety.”

Yang Yi took a closer look and instantly felt his vision go black. That damned chocolate was still chasing him.

A block, identical in appearance to a latrine, appeared before him—the “Chocolate Generator.” Its rusty cast-iron casing was covered in suspicious brown scabs, and a faint wisp of greenish-brown toxic gas seemed to float from the small opening at the top.

The precision of this thing’s modeling was more than ten times higher than in the game; just looking at its appearance made it feel like he could smell a foul odor.

This thing was disgusting just to look at. He suddenly understood why Steve in the game would automatically get poisoning and nausea debuffs.

“Alright, I admit it was a bit wrong to make Steve eat so much when I played the game before. Now that I’m on a sky island, I’m not going to have to eat it myself, am I…?”

He placed the block in the air, next to a grass block, and the detailed device appeared before his eyes.

Every thirty seconds, it would emit a gurgling sound like intestinal peristalsis, followed by a puff of light green mist from its top exhaust port, as if urging Yang Yi to hurry up and crouch down.

Due to muscle memory from long hours of gaming, Yang Yi crouched down and right-clicked. A refined, indescribable object appeared on the device.

It then shrunk and flew towards Yang Yi. “Tonic, tonic, ah, Adashi, I, the little mouse, am going to be washed away… How do I turn off this automatic pickup?”

The indescribable object flew to his side and was sucked into his backpack. Yang Yi couldn’t hold on any longer and quickly broke the generator block, sucking it into his backpack.

Then, with a ashen face, he knelt on the ground.

“Boom!” Yang Yi, tears in his eyes, slammed his fist into the ground. “Ye—!!! Steve, I was wrong! I’m not a human, ah! ! !”

“I truly deserve to die, to die, ah! Even dying ten or a hundred times wouldn’t be enough, ah! ! ! Forcing you to eat such filth thousands of times! ! ! What kind of ultimate humiliation is this, ah! ! !”

“Ugh~ Ugh.” Yang Yi, who was feigning tears while collapsed on the ground, suddenly realized that he was kneeling right next to where he had just placed the block, and his head was facing exactly where the generator device had been.

Moving to the other side, Yang Yi recovered for a while, then suddenly thought, “Wouldn’t this thing be somewhat invincible if placed in the Naruto world? It could easily raise an army of White Zetsu.”

“Forget it, I won’t think about it. Let’s see what else the remaining gift packages can open.”

Yang Yi began to pray. Without water, he couldn’t bathe or burn incense, so he could only pray that HIM would bless him with something good, and secretly promised, “Brother Steve, if I get the chance, I’ll definitely treat you to big fish and meat every meal, ah. Please, let me go.”

The second gift package, activated.

Accompanied by a flash of light, falling dry kelp blocks directly plastered his face.

The stack of dark brown blocks before him was composed of strips, each as thick as an arm, piled up. Salt crystals on the surface sparkled faintly in the sunlight, looking exactly like aged goods bundled into bricks during a supermarket sale.

“Congratulations! You have obtained — Dry Kelp Block * 64.”

“Ordinary Dry Kelp Block: Kelp has three benefits—it’s cheap, filling, and fire-resistant.”

“At least it’s better than eating shit.” Yang Yi found joy in his misery, breaking one of the blocks into dry kelp and chewing it. A salty, fishy taste instantly exploded in his mouth, like chewing ten bags of expired shredded squid at once. Afterwards, his hunger bar recovered a little.

The good news was that he still had his sense of taste; the bad news was that he still had his sense of taste. If he hadn’t drawn the kelp blocks, Yang Yi would have wished he didn’t have a sense of taste.

In that light, drawing the kelp blocks could be considered a blessing in disguise.

With renewed vigor, he opened the third gift package, and a dazzling golden light appeared before Yang Yi’s eyes.

“Holy crap, a golden item!”

He carefully examined the item before him. It looked like a tabletop, with a white base and purple patterns flowing across its surface like living things. Numerous particle lights and symbols floated around it.

As an experienced skip-player, the name of this item was already on the tip of his tongue, though it seemed a bit different from the one in the game.

“Congratulations! You have obtained — Ultimate Portable Transmutation Table * 1.”

“Ultimate Portable Transmutation Table:”

“1. Can transmute most items.”

“2. EMC storage limit is infinite + 1.”

“3. Bound to player: cannot be removed, cannot be discarded, cannot be dropped, cannot be taken away, does not occupy inventory slots.”

“4. Sage’s Stone storage function.”

“5. Can freely decompose and transmute within range.”

“6. Can provide energy to the player.”

“Ps. Please explore other functions yourself later.”

“Holy crap, is this still a Transmutation Table? I was wondering why it was so different from the one I saw in my game. Can ‘Ultimate’ really be this powerful?”

The Ultimate Transmutation Table chirped softly in his mind: “Do you think these are already ultimate? Actually, I just can’t think of any new functions for now; they’ll be added as needed later.”

But Yang Yi couldn’t hear it; he was currently immersed in the joy in his heart.

“Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, I’m taking off, ah~ I’m flying, I’m invincible!”

The unease brought by his transmigration had been diluted, even completely gone, by the divine artifact before him.

As the light disappeared, the Transmutation Table gradually shrunk and flew towards Yang Yi until it flew into his body and vanished.

Although he didn’t smoke, Lin Yi, who had just experienced such ups and downs, felt that if he were to sit on the edge of the small sky island, basking in the sun with his eyes closed, and take a puff, it would probably calm his mood.

“Hmm, it’s decided. I’ll lie down and sunbathe for a bit to rest, then I’ll start building my Minecraft.”

That’s right, before possessing this power, this was another world, a dangerous Minecraft game world, but with the Ultimate Transmutation Table, this place had truly become his Minecraft.

“God has retrieved part of his authority,” Yang Yi whispered in his heart, doing a voiceover.

“This sun is a bit dazzling, ah.” Then, with a thought, the sun was… no.

Although Yang Yi also wanted to try selling the sun to instantly take off, he first didn’t know what the sun in Minecraft truly was or in what state it existed, and the distance wasn’t enough. He secretly thought, “I must explore it if I get the chance later.”

Yang Yi silently thought, “Decompose items.” Then, the “Chocolate Generator,” the “chocolate” he had just casually squatted out, and the dry kelp blocks he had just drawn disappeared.

The grass block he used to place the generator and a piece of cobblestone below it also disappeared, and several items and some EMC values appeared in the Transmutation Table.

“With such a powerful Transmutation Table, I won’t feel at ease if I keep something in my backpack that I haven’t sold at least once. I’ll sell it once first.”

Then, with another thought, a cobblestone block appeared in mid-air, perfectly blocking the sunlight from Yang Yi’s eyes, while the platform beneath him instantly expanded several times.

“Hmm, it’s purely for safety, in case I roll over and fall off.”

“Phew, this is so convenient, so comfortable. I’ll rest a bit more, then I’ll start reversing the electric meter using the Chocolate Generator and dry kelp.”

“After that, I’ll properly build my Minecraft.”

Yang Yi had barely closed his eyes when a “Ding…” sound suddenly echoed in his mind.

“Ding… The Myriad Worlds Chat Group has detected you and is inviting you to join the Myriad Worlds Chat Group. Would you like to join: Yes or No.”

“Huh? No? There’s still a cheat?”
