Starting with Growing Mushrooms-Chapter 427 - 330: Choices and Changes
"Recently, the appearance of Divine Objects has become increasingly strange."
Liu Jun’s gaze turned to a perfectly square mushroom that resembled a label.
[Death Omen Tag]: Adds a new way to die.
Introduction.
Childhood domestic violence, parents divorced, raised by grandmother, grandmother hit by a car and died, bullied at school.
This was the tragic first half of my life.
Until the day I started working in a factory at eighteen, I met my white moonlight.
Gentle, kind, she saved me, a man who was despairing in the mire.
I fell in love with her.
I gave everything for her, worked hard to save money, my mind full of dreams for a beautiful future.
But the good times didn’t last long.
That night, I saw her being dragged into a car and humiliated by a rich second generation. I rushed forward but was knocked to the ground.
The next day, I heard she had a mental breakdown and was admitted to a mental hospital.
I went to visit her, she told me about her desperate and painful experience of humiliation.
"Damn it, why do good people have to suffer misfortune?"
My world once again descended into despair.
Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill!
In my mind, I loathed this hopeless world.
"I want revenge, I want to kill that rich second generation!"
"But he has bodyguards, how can I beat him?"
Just then, I picked up a tag with mysterious powers on the road, and a voice emerged in my mind:
[There are countless ways to die in the world: old age, illness, poison, fall, thirst, starvation...]
[As long as you write on the tag, you can add a new way to die to this world.]
This is a conceptual power.
I wrote: [All evildoers will die]
Ineffective.
Was it not specific enough?
[All who commit assault will die]
Ineffective.
Was it because it defied common sense?
[All who commit assault, in that moment of excitement, will experience a heart attack and die of an erotic stroke.]
Because the condition for death was written in sufficient detail, it took effect.
The next day I watched the news.
"Mr. Li, during an assault, died of an erotic stroke."
"Mr. Zhang, while committing assault in a bar, died of an erotic stroke."
...
The whole world was broadcasting the sudden deaths of various people, anyone who committed assault would die of an erotic stroke.
"The people I kill, will increase my power?"
A trickle of power flowed into my heart, and a strong feeling of excitement rose within me.
This world has no justice, so I shall enact justice.
I will cleanse this evil world.
I am the god of the new world.
I have added a new way to die to this world: all who commit assault must die.
In the month after that, countless bizarre sudden death cases shocked the entire world, and made countless criminals dare not risk their lives.
"A divine spirit has intervened."
"No, it should be just a murderer, criminals should be punished by law, not some evil curse."
"I am a famous detective, I will definitely capture this mysterious person." 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶
"Our national government has announced this person is executing vigilante justice, violating national interests, has been documented, and a reward of ten million is offered for related information."
The whole world was in turmoil.
And I, this small person, had unexpectedly reached the peak of the world, countless people regarded me as a faith, as a hero.
Two months later, the number of assault cases began to gradually drop to zero.
Yet my enemy had not died.
"Damn it, he hasn’t committed assault again, so how can I kill him?"
I tried to follow that rich second generation.
But my clumsy tracking was discovered by his bodyguards, I was knocked to the ground, spitting blood.
"There must be a way, he will certainly commit a crime."
I frantically searched for information and changed the death method on the tag.
[Those who engage in fighting, all will lose due to sudden cardiac arrest]
It took effect.
"It’s happening again!"
"They actually changed the condition for triggering death!"
"Wah, Death God, give my brother’s life back, he was just protecting me by fighting with others..."
The whole world went insane, the entire world no longer had violent incidents.
People began to revere, began to fear.
But the rich second generation still did not die.
I changed the method of death again:
[Today, those who receive bribes will choke on water and die.]
It took effect.
The father of the rich second generation died, but the rich second generation did not.
I repeatedly changed the way to die.
Each day new people died.
Everyone began to live in fear.
Even social customs started to improve to a morbid degree, after car accidents they would kneel and apologize to each other, fearing triggering some death mechanism.
Road rage became a legend in a short time.
Experts began to discover the truth, began predicting the changing causes of death each day:
[There can only be one death mechanism at a time, once triggered, a specific type of person will die.]
[Today’s cause of death, you can’t do...]
[Today’s cause of death, you can’t do...]
The entire world fell into a bizarre tale of rules.
But the rich second generation still didn’t die.
Until I wrote down [Anyone with ill-gotten wealth exceeding 1 million will die]
The rich second generation died.
But the white moonlight in the mental hospital also died.
"How is this possible!"
That’s when I realized my white moonlight was nothing but a green tea, frequently blackmailing the rich second generation because of pregnancy. She wasn’t a good person either, which drove her to madness by the rich second generation.
"There’s no good person in this world!"
"Kill, kill, kill!"
"I want to become a god!"
A year, ten years, with the continuous change of death conditions, I killed everyone.
With each person I killed, my power grew stronger, until finally, I became the Death God itself, returning to the void.
The entire planet was devoid of life.
Millions of years later, a spaceship arrived on this bizarre dead planet and picked up the mysterious tag.
"What is this?"
"Hahaha, in that case, the imperial family that exiled me, I want you all to die, kill, kill, kill, kill!"
A new massacre also unfolded, with the order of death spreading to the interstellar.
"I want to add a new way of dying to this world."
...
"This medium death has some substance."
Liu Jun thought, feeling there are many ways to play.
Add a new method of death, set a trigger condition for death.
As long as you die in the way you set, you can enhance your power?
A killing book?
Can you stack the kill count?
Don’t know the exact magnitude or strength of the power enhanced by killing, or by what means.
After all, the description is about the mortal world, and their lethality cannot be used as a reference.
"Medium death is already that exciting."
Liu Jun thought, that medium death currently poses no threat to him, and turned his gaze to the next one.
A masked mushroom.
[Thief of Thousand Changes]: The ability to change seventy-two times.
"What’s this supposed to mean?"
"Previously attacked the Thousand Changes Church, and now soup is brewed?"
"But the brew resulted in a medium thief divine object, could it be that [Thief] and [Thousand Changes] are quite similar, and the two materials were brewed into this medium divine object?"
As Liu Jun pondered, he looked at this divine object.
"Let’s see the level of your myriad of changes."
Introduction:
Childhood domestic violence, parents divorced, raised by grandma, grandma got hit by a car and died, bullied at school.
This is my tragic first half of life.
...
Liu Jun just read two lines and felt something was wrong.
Isn’t this introduction the one from the adjacent medium death divine object?
Well, well, well.
Previously, the concealed introduction was a string of gibberish.
Now, the thief’s introduction has stolen the introduction of the adjacent medium death divine object?
"Not an ordinary pervert."
Liu Jun indeed felt it had the ability of numerous transformations.
Reaching here, the three introductions were completed.
Liu Jun pondered.
New parallel series, low divine object.
Death series, medium divine object.
Thief series, medium divine object.
"First rule out the parallel series, an entry point, not much use, unless I take it, I’ll be responsible for opening doors for people later?"
"Wouldn’t that make me the new Gate God of the Southern Heaven Gate?"
This divine object is labor-intensive, Liu Jun didn’t plan to trouble himself with it.
The death divine object, the same old story.
The death series are unowned death divine artifacts, no need to choose, just find them yourself.
That low-death death note was once a trophy from defeating Scouti.
It’s now tossed in Heaven, currently of no use.
Even considering finding some time to throw it out and recruit a new Death God worker to help develop this death system.
After all, the core of the death divine object is the death divine artifact; whoever wields the divine artifact is the Death God.
Replacing a Death God is much easier than replacing a wife.
So, no need to choose either.
"The quality of this batch is a bit low."
Liu Jun thought for a moment and decisively chose the thief series.
[Name: Liu Jun]
[Race: Fungus]
[Realm: Seventh Tier, Tenth Layer]
[Talents: Immortality (Complete), XXXX (Complete), Omniscience (Complete), Medium Transmission, Shifting Form, Thief of Thousand Changes, Scale Beam Empty Pool]

[Mushroom Soup Space Series: Microcosmic Realm, Heaven and Earth Splash.]

[Mushroom Soup Parallel Series: World Chronicle Eagle]
[Unclassified Series: Deep Love is not Long-lived, Star Rushing Lightning, Map Soul Soaring Spirit]
At the moment Liu Jun made his choice, the Creator God in the sky also took a divine object.
Whoosh!
The remaining two divine objects turned into a stream of light and shot away to somewhere.
