Constructing-Style Wizard

Chapter 3

Noland Lee woke up leisurely in the narrow single room after some time.

The fog in his mind quickly receded, and his vision became clear and bright.

Outside the window, gloomy gray clouds accumulated overhead, tinting the sunlight a dilapidated gray-white.

The ground was covered with collapsed stone house ruins and sharp-edged rocks. In the shadowy areas where the sunlight could not reach, sneaky dark shadows silently appeared and lingered.

Inside the carriage, the worn green leather seat revealed its yellowed cotton stuffing, while a yellowed bulb on the ceiling emitted a faint dim light. The damp air was mixed with a choking smell of cigarettes.

“I really traveled… This seems to be a world with a lower level of technology…”

Noland Lee rubbed his eyes and slowly exhaled the breath he had been holding in, looking at the scene inside and outside the carriage.

Just as he acknowledged his situation, a faint electric current materialized in his head, swinging back and forth between the left and right sides of his brain.

An ethereal pendulum-like pattern quickly formed before his eyes.

Noland Lee’s pupils dilated slightly, and his breathing stagnated.

The oscillation amplitude of the “pendulum” gradually increased, dragging out a connected afterimage that finally formed a fan-shaped system interface.

The information stream composed purely of characters appeared on the simple white system interface.

[Detected that you have completely awakened, the “Deconstruction Core System” starts initializing…]

[Initialization progress 1%…2%…]

“Deconstruction Core?”

Noland Lee raised his eyebrows.

According to the basic rule of crossing, a Traveler either possesses a plug-in or has a foreknowledge ability to foresee the world where they have traveled to.

So the appearance of the current system interface did not surprise Noland Lee too much.

But why is his plug-in the “Deconstruction Core System”?

He was sure that he had not come across anything called this before crossing. However, various game modifiers and bizarre software were abundant on his computer.

[System initialization completed, the exclusive skill “Deconstruction” has been unlocked for you.]

[Deconstruction: After you designate an item with your gaze, thoughts, or any part of your body, you can consume a certain amount of energy points to deconstruct it. You will obtain the deconstruction result of the item. The more energy points invested, the more detailed the deconstruction result.]

This text hovered on the system interface, with no additional content appearing afterward.

Noland Lee habitually scratched his head, feeling a bit strange.

Before crossing, every “system” in the online novels he had read basically had a panel displaying the host’s body data.

But this Deconstruction Core System, why wasn’t there such a panel?

Moreover, his system interface was quite bare; except for the introduction of “Deconstruction,” there were no other buttons—functions like lottery, sign-in, shopping mall, etc., all did not appear.

At a glance, this system in his hands seemed a bit too minimalist…

Noland Lee contemplated for a little while, then suddenly had a thought.

It seemed that he knew how to activate the “Personal Panel” function.

Noland Lee looked at his hands, focused his attention on his palms, and silently recited in his heart:

“Activate Deconstruction and deconstruct myself.”

[System message: You are about to use Deconstruction on yourself. It is estimated that consuming 1 point of energy can make the completion of the deconstruction result reach 100%. Confirm to proceed with the deconstruction?]

“As I thought… To obtain my personal panel, I just need to use Deconstruction on myself.”

Noland Lee slowly nodded his head and silently recited, “confirm.”

At this moment, he felt a brief daze, similar to yawning when drowsiness suddenly hit.

His vision completed the process of changing from clear to blurry, then from blurry back to clear in just one second.

At the same time, a rapidly filling progress bar appeared on the system interface, followed by a new sub-interface—exactly the personal panel that Noland Lee had been expecting.action
