Chapter 2 Newbie Village
Wearing the helmet, the animations started but I skipped them, the whole screen then displayed the <<Second World>> menu background. Then a countdown started in the middle of the screen.
Second by second the time passed by, I focused and watched the time, I knew that a several thousand to 10 thousand people were also waiting like I was worldwide.A small number of people that joined the game first would get rewarded a artifact. Who knew if I would get lucky and get a good thing.
“10!”
"9!"
“8!”
“......”
“3!”
“2!”
“1!”
The screen changed into the gaming interface and the system prompted: “Please create your character."
“Please enter your game name!” The system continued.
I said: “Sinking Stone”
[TL: Translated it’s Sinking Stone but I think the name meant Loser]
“I’m sorry, This name is already been used!”
“Ruthless Tears”
“I’m sorry, This name is already been used!”
“Seriously not my fault”
“I’m sorry, This name is already been used!”
“It’s hard to get a name”
[TL:You know you gave up when you have to use that as a username…]
“I’m sorry, This name is already been used!”
It was really hard to choose a name casually: “Weiwei Long”
[Tl: It translates to powerful dragon but I think the pinyin looks nicer.]
“Complete, Scanning facial features, you may change facial features up to 30%. Will you like to modify?”
“Finally,” I gasped.
I looked in front of me to see young person that looked like me. If my acquaintances saw, they would recognize that it was me, and I wanted to change it a little, so I said“Uglier by 5%” after all being low-key is king.
“Congratulations, your account has been created. Would you like to enter the game?”
I nodded to enter and the screen changed. I had appeared in a dilapidated village.
“Ding~!” System Prompt:
“You are the 123456th player to enter the game!”
This number was really easy to remember, then the system appeared to prompt “Ding~! Hello player! Every player that plays today at the start of the game will get a free lottery chance! Would you like to begin the drawing?”
“Begin.” Anybody that didn’t start would be a fool.
A wheel appeared and started to spin, after a minute it stopped on top of a symbol for skill, and the System prompted” Ding~! You have gained the skill Concentration Training.”
“Shrimp?”
[TL:I feel like I’m missing something here. Shrimp was in the raws.]
Opening the skill menu it showed the information of the skill - Concentration Training: Every 10 levels, stats will be increased.
The skill’s pretty interesting, but not important right now. I still have to hurry and begin the game.
A few seconds later the map opened, “ Welcome to the game, You are at 110 Newbie Village, please have a good time.” I checked my location again sand saw that the village was called Idiot Village, F*ck!What kind of garbage name is this, do you take me for a idiot. I complained to the other players that arrived at the village, there were a lot of players pouring into the game.
Looking at my stats:
ID:Weiwei Long
Job: Novice
Level: 1
Health: 100
Mana: 50
Attack: 2
Defense: 1
Prestige: 0
Luck: 0
|
These were completely rookie stats, but whatever I can manage with this, I’ll just focus on leveling up. Oh yeah! Let’s try to find a quest.
A old man came over and said, “Hello, Adventurer. I am the Village Chief of this village, although our village name isn’t nice to listen to, don’t leave any suggestions.”
It’s hard not to think of any suggestions. I said: “What can I help you with?”
The Village Chief said: “Haha, Adventurer you’re too anxious, I’ll tell you about the task first, there’s no rush.”
I said: “Okay.”
The Village Chief said: “Outside of this village there is a gloomy forest, perfect for novice adventurers to train, and you can help people in the village at the same time.”
I said: “Village Chief, What else should I look out for? For example, how would I go to the main city? How can I become stronger?”
The Village Chief said: “When you reach level 10 you can finish training, and I can send you away from the village where you can go to the temple to choose your job. But in this village the opportunity to grow strong is slim, you can only hope that your luck is good.You can walk around first and get familiar with the area and the world. But money is important and you will need money. Huh, huh. Money is pretty hard to make at the beginning.
I hesitantly said: “Earning money? How can I get money? Food and healing potions would be hard to get without money.”
The Village Chief laughed loudly and said: “You are correct, without money you can’t do anything…...Haha! Also good equipment also cost money, learning skills cost money, a place to sleep cost money, everything cost money. Without any money, it’s hard to get stronger. As for making money, you can kill monsters and sell the monster’s nucleus and sell the materials that come from the monsters. They also drop equipment, that is very expensive and you can do this simultaneously as you do quest. And if you’re lucky you can find treasure. All in all you will get used to it very soon.”
“In brief, in the early stages, you need to get a lot of money to be strong.Because the outside world is horrible, you will be faced with adventurers, monsters, and challenges.At times you may want to cry because it’s too late to do something, but other adventurers will also become stronger. If you also don’t become stronger, then you can only wait for your death and be wiped away from the world.This is the fight for who will become the strongest, and the ones who will be at the top admired by everybody else.
I said: “Okay, Do you have any ideas of how to become the strongest?”
The Village Chief said: “Before Lvl 30 there is no difference, but after the gap will be displayed. Young man work hard!”
The Village Chief smiled and said: “We’ve almost arrived, and remember my words. Walk around and get familiar with the area, then earn some money by helping out and join a team of people. Then you guys can have a strong foundation to take harder task and earn more money.Therefore taking quest is also a a way to grow. Of course, to also have no fear for one’s life and only fight monsters is also very stupid, you need to use your head and learn. If you’re really intelligent perhaps one day you will have a super- godlike ability. Haha! Otherwise you will always stay an ordinary adventurer! Haha! Young man, I hope that you can create a miracle, but we of Idiot Village having a strong adventurer is a small chance. The village has become silent for a long time, to long without a miracle……” Finally the Village Head took a deep sigh.
I said: “I will, even though the name of the village is hard to listen to , I absolutely will create a miracle. So just you watch.”
He just laughed: “Hahaha, Ambitious kid, I support you. I’ll give you a quest, and I hope can complete it in a stunning manner.”
I said: “For sure!”
The Village Chief said: “Okay, The farm outside of the village is infested with voles and destroy the painstakingly hard work of the farmers. You help out and kill them. I think this should be a simple thing for you to do.”
I said: “Don’t worry I will do it.”
“Ding~! Would you like to accept task: Eliminate the Voles?”
“I accept.”
The Village Chief nodded and I turned to walk away, but the Village Head suddenly stopped me and said: “Young man, You’re to impatient, with a empty hand how do expect to finish the quest.”
I looked at myself and found that I didn’t have a weapon and laughed, while the Village Head said: “Go to the Weapons Shop and find Li Dashu, he can give you the necessary items.”After I finished listening I walked to the Weapons Shop.
At the Weapons Shop, a huge man bare from the waist up said: “You are a new adventurer, Haha, I hope you can create a miracle. Tell me what you want and I can give you two pieces of equipment.”
I said: “Give me a sword and a shield.”
“Okay.” He said while giving me a sword and small shield. I opened my Inventory:
Ordinary Iron Sword
Grade: White
Attack power + 5
Sharpness: F
Level Requirement: Level 0
|
Small Round Shield
Grade: White
Defense + 3
Level Requirement: Level 0
|
I put on the equipment and headed out to start the extermination.
