Chapter 1: Initiation
'Bang!'
It was as if he had fallen from a great height.
There was a muffled thump in the back of his head, followed by an exploding pain.
It was as if someone had whipped him with a stick.
Ron instinctively covered his head and opened his eyes slightly.
In the hazy gray-white vision, there were flying black shadows, thick smoke and dust, and noisy sounds.
He tried to raise his hands to support his body, but his body was so sore that he couldn't use his strength at all.
"What is this place, I'm not in the game"
At the end of the memory, he was playing a holographic online game called "Infinite World", when he suddenly heard a loud roar, and before he could think about anything, a bright spark suddenly flashed in his vision, and then he entered darkness.
There was a pain in the back of his head, and it seemed that even his memories were stirred into a pulp by the pain.
Just as he was trying to remember something, something soft suddenly hit him on the back.
'Bang!'
There was another muffled sound, which made his already weak body faint directly......
In the dark.
Under the closed eyelids, there were galloping blue currents.
It didn't take long for Ron's body to finally feel a glimmer of sensation.
He slowly opened his eyes, and as his pupils contracted, his vision gradually became clearer.
Through the silvery moonlight shining in through the window, he gradually saw the scene around him clearly.
It was a somewhat dark, narrow room with a damp, musty smell in the air.
There were scattered tables and chairs in the room, and on top of the table was a piece of black solid held on a plate.
"Am I dead?
Looking at this strange and somewhat familiar place, his brain was still confused, and he couldn't figure out the situation.
Suddenly, a tearing pain exploded from his brain, and there was a roar in his ears.
Ron instinctively covered his head, closed his eyes tightly, and the green tendons on his forehead beat wildly as if they could burst at any moment.
In his field of vision, blue currents quickly crossed his eyes, as if a large number of things were stuffed into his mind that did not belong to him.
A fine cold sweat broke out from his body, quickly wetting the bedding on his body.
The pain lasted for a full hour.
So much so that his body spasmed because of the pain.
It wasn't until the pain slowly faded that he slowly let go of the arm holding his head as he curled up on the bed.
After a long time, until his body had recovered a little, Ron opened his eyes again, his gaze a little dazed.
"I'm Ron?
In the dim light, he looked at his rough palms in disbelief.
There are also some scattered memories in the brain, which belong to a teenager named Ron.
In my memory, it seems to be a Western world similar to medieval Europe, where people are still in the age of cold weapons.
He is located in a remote territory called the Bester Empire.
In that vague impression, the Best Empire was a huge country, at least very large in Ron's memory.
There are wars in other countries around the empire from time to time, and even the Bester Empire is not very calm inside.
"The Best Empire?"
Ron rubbed his brow vigorously, still feeling incredible.
Because the name of this country, whether ancient or modern, he has no impression, that is, this world may not be the earth anymore.
In his memory, the original owner of this body was named Ron Felton, a fifteen-year-old boy who was adopted by the lord of his domain since childhood.
A few days ago, he just got the status of a servant, and because of the large number of homeless people in the territory, he was hurriedly dispatched to carry out the expulsion mission.
Unfortunately, the young man who accepted the mission for the first time fell off his horse due to a stuffy stick of the homeless and died unexpectedly, which led to his crossing.
As he pondered, there was another pain in the back of his head, and he stretched out his hand and touched it slightly, feeling that there was actually a bulging piece there, and there were some rough bandaging marks.
And in addition to the wound on the back of his head, he found that he also had varying degrees of pain all over his body, but compared to the former, these were negligible.
Feeling the unusually tragic physical condition, Ron frowned.
A fifteen-year-old boy who had just obtained the status of a subordinate and had little actual combat experience was sent out for expulsion because of the presence of displaced people in the territory, which led to an accidental death.
Even though he belongs to another world, even though his identity is a knight's servant, as long as he is not a fool, he can detect the abnormality in it.
In a trance, in his somewhat chaotic memory, the image of a tall, thin young man wearing brown leather armor and a silver cross sword hanging from his waist appeared in his mind.
"Apprentice Knight, Nick. ”
He muttered under his breath.
Nick is one of only twenty midship-riders in the realm, and one of the leaders in charge of training knights and patrolling their territory.
And he was the one who gave the order to Ron to expel the exiles.
"Is it a conspiracy?" Ron had a little headache.
However, based on those memories in his head, he understood that even if it was a real frame-up, if there was no evidence, then he would not even be qualified to report it to the lord.
Human life in this world is very cheap, even if he is a knight servant in his territory.
As far as he knew, there were more than fifty people like him in the domain, and these people were either adopted by the lord since childhood or selected from within the territory.
If he hadn't traveled back in time, even if the real Ron died, it wouldn't have had much impact on the lord and his realm, after all, death was too common for this era.
Fighting, starvation, and looting can cost people lives.
Unless, he has the opportunity to become a trainee knight and enter the eyes of the lord, then he has a certain right to speak, otherwise his words are meaningless.
"Apprentice Knight, is it really a world where strength is respected?" he gently shook his rough palm, a thoughtful look in his eyes.
Because he was adopted by the lord, he had undergone various trainings since he was a child, and as a fifteen-year-old boy, he had too much of an advantage over his peers.
However, this advantage has little effect on the current situation.
If this was a deliberate frame-up, then Nick would definitely do it again as long as he was alive.
In Ron's memory, it would take at least seven or eight experienced knights to defeat him.
The trainee knight is much higher than the knight in terms of skill and strength, and has gradually formed his own set of fighting styles, and it is not easy to solve it by besieging it together.
"So, I know so little information that I don't even know the reason for the frame-up" Ron showed a wry smile, a little depressed in his heart.
In the remaining fragmentary memories, he couldn't find a reason why the other party wanted him.
It was even said that Ron had only met the apprentice knight almost twice, once when he first entered the training camp, and the second time when he was given that damn mission
Before he could digest this extremely absurd thing, it was as if he was involved in a conspiracy to kill him again.
It's not a very happy thing for anyone.
"Looks like we'll have to try somewhere else. Ron thought a little depressed. "But first of all, I still want to improve my strength, I don't know how my current physical fitness is, fortunately, I still know some exercise skills, but I don't know if it works. ”
Just as he was thinking about what he could use, a series of blue electricity flashed across his eyes.
Without warning, these currents shuttle densely under the eye, like a blue waterfall.
So much so that both of Ron's eyes seemed to be covered with a blue halo.
'Smack!'
Suddenly, there was a slight explosion, and the blue electricity stopped abruptly.
Then Ron's eyes snapped and cleared.
It's just that at this time, there is something faintly hidden in his eyes, and it is a blue box.
'Attributes: Strength 0.7 (0.6), Agility 0.9 (0.6), Constitution 0.7 (0.5), Intelligence 1.1. Condition: Weak. ’
Ron looked at the familiar image and was shocked.
"Isn't this the character attribute bar in Infinite World? Is this still a game!?" he looked at the attribute bar in front of him with a slight distraction.
But the unfamiliar memories and surroundings in his mind told him that this was a real world.
"No, it's not a game, not even anything close to it. He immediately shook his head in denial.
After all, he had never heard of a country called Best in the infinite world, and both the clothes and the graphics were completely different from the scenes in the game.
"And this stat bar isn't complete, it doesn't have experience gauges, no health bars, and no blue bars. I don't even have the attribute points that come with it, it's like a powerful simplified version, is it my vision?"
Ron tried to rub his eyes, but the bar was still there, as if it wasn't a hallucination caused by a stimulus to his brain.
After thinking about it for a while, he couldn't figure out why such a thing appeared in the real world.
"Forget it, something is better than nothing. ”
Ron shook his head helplessly.
If it was the original attribute panel, it would still have some effect on him now, but this powerful simplified version is at most a body numerical recorder.
However, the properties of the infinite world are based on the human body, and are set according to the standard of a normal male adult's body of approximately 1.
And now Ron's physical fitness, this value is infinitely close to an adult if he is completely healthy, but the weak state of the injury has made his physical fitness decline a lot.
"If this data is true, then it seems to be the result of training since childhood. Ron frowned and looked at his stats. "Fortunately, except for the fact that the agility has dropped too much, it has not had much impact now. ”
It's just that even though his physical fitness is close to that of an adult at the age of fifteen, this strength doesn't mean much to a trainee knight.
What needs to be done now is either to find the reason for his framing and get evidence to inform the lord, or to quickly increase his strength, at least so strong that that guy has no chance to frame him again.
Ron tried to get up from the bed, stumbling in front of the window of the room.
There was no moon in the dark sky, only a few stars hanging on it, illuminating the surroundings.
The night breeze blew on his cheeks, bringing a cool feeling, which made his brain, which had been in a daze, a lot clearer.
Ron narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling the unfamiliar surroundings of peace and quiet, and thinking about anything he could use.
For a long time, he glanced at the attribute bar under his eyes.
