The Retired Supporting Character Wants to Live Quietly - Chapter 10 – The Headmaster’s Idle Thoughts

Zhou Qi was reborn countless times before the end.

Every time, it doesn’t end well.

Monster invasion, natural disaster baptism, twisted rules, world destruction…

He is familiar with the survival laws of all environments, he is the doomsday walker, the lonely savior.

However, it is also a poor worm trapped in place.

What is the truth of the end? Are human struggles really meaningless? What does his existence mean?

… Zhou Qi thought about these questions and woke up again from his dream.

When the strangeness came, he made all preparations numbly.

but–

The end did not come this time.

Jiang Feng didn’t even hesitate to choose the second choice. He invested everything in Bitcoin and made a hundred million.

However, he posted a different story online.

“I lost everything in cryptocurrency. I’ll have to start all over again.”

The moment the post went online, all sorts of demons and devils appeared.
