Chapter 1: Infinite world
On May 13, 2160, a game called VRMMO was released around the world.
I, Yeyu, an otaku, am looking at the game box in front of me with a nervous expression.
Two months before my college graduation exam, my good friend told me about the game coldly.
Everyone likes to play games, and I'm no exception, so I made a reservation with my friends.
After graduating, I worked hard to settle the payment for the game, and finally today, the money was paid and the game arrived.
"You have to play all night today, or I'm sorry for the title of [Night Elf]!"
Open the outer box of the game, in addition to the hood-type game console, it is a manual.
Follow the instructions in the manual and start the installation and setting
"Whew..... That's it. â
As suggested in the manual, I put on my hood and lay on my back on the bed, closed my eyes, and pressed the game switch.
"You're the new adventurer, welcome to this world."
When I came back to my senses and opened my eyes, I found myself in a white space with a child wearing a gladiator's helmet standing in front of me.
"Why are you wearing a gladiator helmet?"
I wanted to laugh, but politely reminded me to be patient.
"It's rude, it's my romance, if it weren't for the fact that I couldn't play the player, I would have killed you a long time ago."
"I'm sorry, I was wrong."
Hearing my apology, the child snorted and continued, "Seeing that you apologize, I will forgive you." â
"The next step is to start setting up the character, first of all, the game image, and the system will give you a template according to what you look like in reality."
As soon as the child finished speaking, a game character similar to my appearance appeared in front of him.
In reality, I look pretty good, so I didn't change too much, and I clicked on the gender after I chose it.
"Tsk, the handsome guy is amazing, so arrogant."
I looked at him a little speechless.
"Uh-huh, let's set the player's name next, what name do you want to choose?"
A panel appeared in front of me, and I began to feel distressed.
"It's so troublesome to choose a name, and it's the most annoying thing to choose a name or something."
After thinking about it for more than ten minutes, I typed [night] on the panel and pressed OK.
"OK, next is the initial loadout, which one do you want?"
A book appeared before my eyes, each page with a different weapon and its description.
"Wooden knives, pocket knives, steel knives, iron knives, ......"
The sheer amount of equipment gave me a bit of a headache to look at, and when I went back to the catalog, I decided to choose the weapon of handmail.
The moment I pressed OK, my posture changed, and my appearance changed to the shape I had just made, and I wore silver-white handarmor on my left and right hands.
"Oh, that's amazing!"
I looked at myself and felt pretty good, except that this newbie suit was a little ugly.
"Next is the allocation of attribute points."
A portion of my own attribute board appeared in front of me.
"Strength, Intelligence, Agility, Defense, Luck."
A smile appeared on the corner of my mouth, and I smiled at the child: "Strength defense or something is a floating cloud, and the male protagonist is usually lucky!" â
Decisively select all of them and click OK.
The child decisively chose to ignore it. "Next is the travel fee for you, a total of five silver coins."
"By the way, one gold coin equals a hundred, and one silver coin equals ten thousand copper coins. A bun over there is a hundred copper coins. â
The child took five silver coins from his hand and said thank you.
"Alright, welcome, and have fun."
After the child finished speaking, a light enveloped me.
When I opened my eyes again, I came to the lively square.
This is my first town after entering the game, commonly known as [Newbie Village], and I am now in the central square of the town.
There is a fountain behind him, next to several benches, the square is connected to various avenues, and many players walk on the paved path.
"Wow, that's great, by the way, the attribute table attribute table ....."
With a buzz, a window of the game appeared in front of me.
night
LV1 HPīŧ20/20 MP:20/20
[Strength]: 10+20 [Dexterity]: 10
[Intelligence]: 10 [Defense]: 10
[Lucky]: 20
Next to the stats panel is the equipment panel, which is the head, body, right hand, left hand, legs, feet, and accessories.
"Speaking of which, the kid seems to be waiting for me at the clothing store. Map on ......"
I selected the map on the game panel, and a new game window opened showing a map of the town.
"I'll see, go south from where I am now....."
I looked at the map and took a step.
"Wait a minute, good young man!"
For some reason, my feet were being clutched, and I kept staring at the map and not paying attention to my surroundings.
As you can imagine, I lost my balance because I was suddenly grabbed by my feet while walking, and I had an intimate exchange with Mother Earth.
"Woo!"
Feeling that he was hurt, he looked up at the window and saw that his HP of 20 had become 15.
I got up and looked back at the culprit.
The man holding my feet was a beggar, and he had not let go of my feet at this time.
"Excuse me, what's the matter with you?"
The beggar wept bitterly and said, "O good young man, I haven't eaten for three days, all right, give me some money!" â
â........ Excuse me, how much do you want? â
The beggar's face changed very quickly, and he was weeping bitterly just now, but now he looked at me obscenely and said, "Not much, five silver coins." â
"What do you say?! Five silver coins, why don't you grab it! â
The beggar didn't say much, but resolutely hugged my leg again and began to cry bitterly.
"You see, that beggar has started to rob money again, this man is really unlucky, he is entangled."
Nearby players gathered, talking and laughing.
"No, I've all the attribute points, and I'm lucky to be so unlucky."
At this time, a player came up and said, "Brother, I'll tell you one thing when you see that you're a newcomer, this beggar basically pesters a newcomer when he sees him, and we basically beat him up." â
I looked at the beggar and realized that the beggar was covered in wounds.
As if tired of watching, the players left and went about their business.
I squatted down and said, "This brother, you have been beaten like this, why do you still do such a thing?" â
"Kind young man, I am also out of helplessness, my family is riddled with illness, and I have no weapons to fight monsters and make money."
After saying that, the beggar took out a photograph from his bosom, which was a picture of a little girl, in which the little girl was holding a rag doll.
"My daughter is at her limit, please save her, good young man!"
With a sigh, my compassion activated, and I gave the beggar the money and equipment on my body.
"Take it, I've even given you the equipment, don't do anything like that."
The beggar took the thing, suddenly jumped back, made a grimace and said, "Idiot, have you been deceived by me, hahaha, goodbye!" â
The beggar ran away, leaving me alone in the wind.
"Stop!"
I went mad and chased after the beggar and followed him out of town, when the system beep slowed me down.
"You're in the combat zone."
I looked around, and I was in the meadow outside the town, and a group of LV1 green slimes saw my presence.
The group of slimes came at me with an underwhelming expression.
"A soldier can be killed, but not humiliated! Even if I give the first blood to the slime, I'm going to beat that beggar up! â
Ignoring the slime's attack, I ran in the direction where the beggar had disappeared.
After a while, my HP is only 2 points left, and I am now in the depths of the forest.
Finally, I spotted a beggar in a tree hollow.
"Finally ..... Finally found you! Accept my sanctions! â
Just as I raised my fist to beat him up, the sight stopped me.
There was a grave in the hollow of the tree, and the beggar was crying with money and equipment in his hands.
"O daughter! Dad has money, he can buy you medicine, you see, I still have equipment, now, no one dares to bully you! â
I wondered, "What's going on?" â
"Quest Occurred [Beggar's Belonging]"
I was taken aback by the sudden hint of the mission. Click on the taskbar to check it.
Quest Details: Find the dead girl's rag doll and give it to the beggar.
Rewards: Skill [Guardian], beggar's property, maiden's property.
I began to appreciate the incredible authenticity of the game.
After receiving the task, I started to look for the rag doll, and according to the task prompt, the rag doll was on the group of slimes that couldn't be dragged just now.
Finally, a blue slime was found near the tree hole, and a rag doll was floating in its transparent body.
"I'd love to kill it, but I only have 2 HP right now, and I don't have a weapon ......"
The blue slime, like the other slimes, had an under-beaten expression.
When I returned to the tree hole, I found the beggar still crying. Just as I was in trouble, the beggar suddenly got up and ran away.
I approached the grave and found a vial of HP potion and my weapon in front of the grave.
"I'm sorry, I'll give it back to you."
Drink the HP potion, equip the weapon, and I'm ready to go and fight that slime....
