Wearing a white-collar badge and earning 3,000 national currency a month, Jiang Fei's biggest regret was choosing the liberal arts stream after junior high. After finally finding a job, she worked overtime until 10 PM. On her way home on her electric scooter, she was unfortunately involved in a car accident and died.
However, she was bound by a Savior System. In the system's world, after technology peaked, wars became frequent, and eventually, the world fell into chaos. The System said: "What you need to do is restore peace and save the world!"
In her impression, saviors were highly capable in combat, proficient in STEM subjects, and generally military strategists. As for her: she was weak and helpless, and had returned all her STEM knowledge to her teachers after the college entrance exam. So the question is, can a liberal arts student also save the world?
This world seemed to have never known peace. Wars and death were incessant, and biochemical weapons had devastated the environment, making it unsuitable for human habitation. Humans in the lower strata dwelled underground, and civilization regressed by several centuries.
At some unknown point, 72 towering sky-high spires appeared on the surface. Entry was only possible by answering a question. Once, a wise person answered the first question and obtained a large amount of supplies, but progressed no further.
The humans in the underground cities dispatched wave after wave of exploration teams, but all returned empty-handed; no one knew the answers to the spires' questions.
On this day, Jiang Fei, who had just arrived in the異world, was teleported in front of a spire named "Gaiyin". She happened to encounter an exploration team wearing layers of protective suits. "Damn it, we're going to come back empty-handed again. If this continues, we'll all die from lack of supplies!" one team member cried out in anguish, looking at the question.
Jiang Fei walked towards the stone tablet inscribed with the question, under the astonished gazes of the other team members. The question read: "Please describe the relationship between matter and consciousness." Jiang Fei thought, "I know this one!" Her liberal arts DNA vibrated!
Later, people referred to Jiang Fei as the Savior. It was she who rescued humanity from the underground cities; it was she who brought peace and hope. To this, Jiang Fei simply said, "I'm just an ordinary liberal arts student."
