Stupid Bird
A great rift appeared in the sky on the vast continent of Syniel. From the breach came a humanoid figure, flying right into the river.
"Damnit system, couldn't you... I don't know- not have thrown me right into a river." Chance exclaimed with great anger.
[How was the System supposed to know]
"Well, you seemed to know a lot coming into the planet."
[Again, the System didn't know]
"Again, the system didn't know," Chance said in a mocking tone.
[System suggests leaving the area; many high-class beasts will be arriving.]
"Of course, why wouldn't I have attracted the attention of bloodthirsty, vicious transcendent level beasts," Chance exclaimed. "I just want to eat my snacks."

[Note that the process can be debilitating. The System suggests that integration should commence on a later date due to the threat of the high-class beings that are currently approaching]
[Would the host like to be informed on when they arrive]
"Why would you even ask me that? YES!"
[Affarmative...]
[ First high-class beings with be arriving in 22hrs and 44mins]
"Okay, I think that the first course of action should be to find shelter and explore in the morning."
[That is wise host]
So, Chance got out of the river drenching wet and tried to find shelter, but shelter was harder to find then he thought, so for the night, he rested up in a tree.
When he got up into the tree, he decided that it was alright to commence with the integration. As soon as he said yes, he regretted saying it. The pain felt like 100 knives were just tearing away at his brain, and by this point, he already lost consciousness.
*Morning, 6hrs and 29 min until first high-class being arrives*
"Uhhhggg, well, that sucked," Chance said, laughing to himself.

"Hmmm, system, buy the knowledge on traps," Chance said after looking through all of them. He was sad that he couldn't buy the
*Ding*
[ Traps - Bought ]
Chance's heart hurt after spending his only 5CC, but he realized that if he was going to eat, he needed traps.
[ 1 hr remaining, until first high-class being arrives]
"Alright, let's just view the knowledge on traps for now," Chance said, knowing that he didn't have the time to integrate with it now.
Looking through the information, Chance grasped a basic understanding of setting up traps. First, he was going to need a vine of some sort. After looking around for a minute, he found one wrapped around a tree. Then he needed a bait, so after a minute or two, he finally found a suitable bait, it looked like a blue carrot. Then all he needed was a massive rock, but since the terrain around the river was rocky, that didn't take to long.
After setting a hoop track with the rock, all he needed to do was sit back. After about thirty minutes, Chance heard a sharp snap and a lot of squealing. Running around the tree he was hiding behind, what he saw surprised him.
Squealing and trashing around was a boar, but it looked like a mix between a pig and a porcupine. A Pigupine! The quills of the Pigupine were glowing a hazy shade of purple, 'they look poisonous,' Chance thought to himself.
Thinking about how he was going to skin this Pigupine, the System sent out a reminder.
[Arrived]
"What? What's arrived," Chance asked, still confused by the excitement over his catch.
"Squeak, Squeak, Squeak," the Pigupine said, waving to him.
'Swoosh,' then everything in a 30-meter radius was reduced to tree stumps and splitters, as a gigantic hawk swooped down and stole Chance's dinner.
The winds from the large hawk threw Chance ten meters away, and by the time he recovered from being thrown. He saw that the bird had already left.
When he finally realized what just happened, he shouted at the sky.
"**** you, you stupid bird."
