Prologue – from a package from ten years ago

Next Chapter

Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

Link stared at his half-sister, who was five years younger than him, and asked word by word, "Your boyfriend fell into a coma because he played a game that was mailed to me?"

He's been in a coma for days, and even the doctors can't do anything. Lin Li put a dirty package on the table. Link's name was written in the recipient column, and he knew the person who mailed the package. Su Wen, a classmate at the elementary and junior high school tables who has cut off contact since moving to the provincial capital.

The date on the postmark indicated that it had been sent ten years ago, and Link's puzzled gaze made Lin Li look away unnaturally, and he immediately understood what was going on.

Ten years ago, Link was still living at home, and Lin Li was also a ten-year-old ghost, and the only one who could intercept letters was her stepmother. The truth made his already unhappy mood worse, and his tone became worse by the way.

"I think you need to explain why my personal letters are in your possession. ”

Lin Li, who was already weak-hearted, told the whole story of the matter, and when she cleaned up the clutter accumulated in the garage half a year ago, a package with Link's name unexpectedly appeared, knowing that this must be a good thing done by her mother. Originally, she planned to return the goods to the original owner, but because Link rarely went home, she kept it in her room, if she hadn't gone to Yuan Ye's house to visit the accident, Lin Li didn't know that the package was secretly taken away by her boyfriend.

Link opened the unsealed package, which contained nothing but a yellowed letter and an unprinted CD.

[I found something very interesting, come on, I'm waiting for you inside.] The short twenty-one words were Su Wen's handwriting, and Link would never believe that such a small disc could make people unconscious.

"It's true!" Lin Li took out a small book from her satchel, "This is Yuan Ye's diary, you can know that I am not lying when you read this." ”

"Don't you know that it's a crime to look at other people's ** at will? Even if you are Yuan Ye's girlfriend, you have no right to peek at his diary!"

Link didn't answer, and Lin Li didn't withdraw his hand, and the two of them just stared at each other.

"I didn't believe it at first, but after I tried it, it ......" Lin Li's expression became a little frightened as she moved her gaze to the disc that Link was holding between her two fingers.

"Okay, I'll see, I'll let you know as soon as there's anything. Grabbing the diary, Link pushed Lin Li out the door on the grounds that it was too late.

The sound of hesitant footsteps paced back and forth outside the door a few times before leaving, and Link's eyes fell on the disc with no labels. The relationship between their brother and sister is not harmonious, and it can even be described as bad. He knew very well that if it wasn't for the fact that there was really no way, she would never come to him.

How is ......it possible to play a game that can make people unconscious?

Curious and skeptical, Link will put the disc into the computer. After a short period of reading, the screen suddenly went black, and even the sound of fans and electricity stopped, leaving only the sound of slight breathing in the rental house. After waiting for more than ten seconds, there was still no response, and just when he thought that the crash was about to restart, the pitch-black screen suddenly appeared with colorful netbsp; Before a large fish with a strange shape jumped out of the vast blue ocean, and before it could swallow the school of fish that had been driven to the surface, a giant eagle of a larger size descended from the sky, its razor-sharp claws pierced deep behind the fish and carried its prey back to the sky.

Both the picture quality and the form are on par with Hollywood-made blockbusters, and this game was really ten years ago?

The camera flies by sharply, and the scenery changes from the ocean to a desolate desert canyon. The war drums shook the sky, and the fierce wolf carried the orc army like a tide to the high mountains, the target was a rock fortress built on the vertical cliff wall, the horn sounded, and the giant ballista equipped with stones and longbows shot a rain of arrows in the sky, and at the moment of the confrontation between the attackers and defenders, the camera suddenly turned into a lush and boundless forest.

Swift as a leopard, the elves scurried through the branches of the trees, dodging the oncoming shower of meteors and striking back at the fire demons that emerged from the ground with arrows of light. The flames burst into flames, where the ice and snow were raging, and lifeless carrion and skeletons were gathered together, their empty eye sockets shining with a cold blue light, looking like an icy blue ocean from afar.

The camera stretches until it becomes a blue planet wrapped in seawater, with a thin mounting bar at the bottom of the screen against the dark starry sky, showing a progress of 1%.

Link, who was deeply attracted by CG, did not terminate the automatic installation of the game, thinking that even if the C drive was installed by default, it could be deleted after playing. While he was waiting in high spirits, an old yellow piece of parchment spread out in the center of the screen, and the text composed of countless grains of sand indicated that he had to answer the questions of the gods before he could choose the best class.

Link has also encountered a game that uses questionnaires to determine classes and attributes before, and strangely enough, this game actually gives [answer questions] and [exit] options. Without thinking about it, he directly clicked the button to answer the question.

Accompanied by the sound of sand flowing, a question with a choice unfolds on the parchment.

【Are you satisfied with the world you live in?】

1 satisfied. 2 dissatisfied. 3. Hope for a change.

What kind of stupid question is this? The corners of Link's mouth twitched, and after choosing the third option, a new question immediately brushed up.

[What does the world look like in your eyes?]

1. Beautiful and harmonious. 2. Confusion and ugliness. 3. Urgent need for change.

Link once again chose 3, and the questions after that were weirder than the other.

[Do you believe that there are gods in the world?]

1 letter. 2. Unbelief. 3. No miracles have been seen, but no denial of God's existence.

If God grants you a wish, what do you want to be ......]

1 love, 2 money, 3 rights, 4 eternal life, 5 neither.

[The reason is ......]

1 It is not necessarily the gods who make promises, but they may also be demons. 2I don't believe in pie in the sky. 3. My wishes are more than these. 4 Those choices are meaningless.

[What do you think makes sense?]

1. World peace. 2. A utopia of unity and equality. 3. Become a person who can change the world. 4. Maintain the balance of the world.

Each time Link chooses the last option, just when his interest in the game is almost exhausted by boring questions, the refreshed questions are finally related to the game.

【Your ideal career is ......】

1 knight. 2 Ranger. 3 Nature's Child.

Looking at the 3 character models lined up, Link was both surprised and disappointed. The game set in Western fantasy does not have popular professions such as warriors, mages, and thieves, or ...... Is it the previous questionnaire that limits the available occupations?

His gaze swept over the knight and ranger one by one, and finally landed on the model labeled 'Child of Nature'. Feathers, animal skins, tattoos, a combination of various birds and beasts, full of primitive and mysterious atmosphere.

If the answer you choose is really related to the character attributes, you can only choose the class that looks like a druid.

At the moment when Link clicked on Nature's Child, more than a dozen pillars of light of different colors suddenly appeared on the planet in the background. Oceans, mountains, forests, grasslands, deserts, all located in sparsely populated areas. The character model turned into a ball of light and spiraled down the yellow pillar of light to the west of Big 6.

After waiting for a long time and not seeing the ball of light fly to the end, Link glanced at the mounting strip, and the progress was only 5o%. I don't know how long it will take to install, so he simply picked up Yuan Ye's diary to beat the time. The content is full of NPCs' names, preferences, and frequently occurring areas, and the most recorded are the materials needed for various potions and the growing locations, and Link yawns when he sees it.

It's just a game, do you need to take notes?

Take another look at the progress bar, 55%......

Sleepy, Link decides to take a nap. Unbeknownst to his computer, the title of Return to Edgar has been replaced with Prologue – The Chosen One.

Done?

Faintly hearing the sound of music, Link opened his heavy eyelids and immediately fell asleep in fright. At this moment, he was not lying in a small rental house of ten square meters, but fell sharply from a height of several hundred meters in a head-down position. Seeing that he was getting closer and closer to the ground, he instinctively opened his mouth.

"Ahhh

With a frightened scream, there was a sound of breaking the sky overhead, and as soon as Link looked up, he saw a large, eagle-shaped bird of prey swooping down, its thick claws snatching him up as it was about to collide with the ground.

Link, who had temporarily picked up a life, was brought back into the air, his only free eyes widening in horror and glancing around. Xiang Qi suddenly fell from mid-air, and the scenery that greeted him was even more surprising.

The endless primeval forest stretches along the rolling mountains to the end of the horizon, and among these towering trees that no one can hug is particularly tall, at least more than 100 meters above the eye.

The giant eagle was aiming for that particular tree, and Link experienced another freefall when he flew overhead. After experiencing a difficult mid-air roll and the fear of almost being caught by a tree branch, he finally landed safely on a pile of thick fallen leaves. He was greeted not by the hungry young animals he imagined, but by a golden-eared elf.

Wait, elves?

Link rubbed his eyes, that's right! Standing in front of him was indeed a creature unique to the background of Western Fantasy, an elf who was the darling of the gods no matter what the setting.

Before he could digest the shock of this series of incidents, the giant eagle flapped its wings and landed, and the moment its feet landed, it turned into a human form. Not only has the body shrunk to the size of a normal person, but even the feathers that reflect the blue-purple luster have become shaman-like clothing, and both the body shape and face appear to be male. He looks about thirty years old, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and the corners of his drooping mouth make him not smile.

In contrast, the elves' faces tended to be more neutral, and the pale golden lengths were casually draped, and even the plain white robes were worn with an elegant and noble taste.

"This is the new Child of Nature?"

"Further confirmation is needed. ”

Confirming that he was not in danger for the time being, Link took advantage of the conversation between the two magical creatures to sneak around and look around. He was at the top of the great main branch of the giant tree, about the size of a basketball court on the flat ground, and the curved side branches were covered with countless fruits as large as coconuts, flashing and flashing like ill-touched light bulbs. The most surprising thing was the yellow-brown pillar of light not far from the giant tree, stretching towards the blue sky until it was beyond the eye of the naked eye.

The strong sense of immediacy reminds Link of the final image of the game's installation - balls of light falling along pillars of light and steep mountains with dense vegetation.

No way......

Even staunch materialists are shaken at this moment. Could this be the reason why Yuan Ye was in a coma, a live-action RPG? He subconsciously denied this ridiculous idea, but he couldn't explain the fact that everything in front of him was related to the game. As Link struggled with whether he was dreaming or playing for real, the Birdman handed him a fruit of light that he had just picked from a branch.

Give me?

Reaching out to take it, the rough shell immediately faded into a flying fluorescent, and in an instant, the fruit that was originally the size of a coconut became a book.

"There is a legacy, and Isol recognizes his qualifications. The humanoid creature transformed into the giant eagle had an unhappy expression on its face, and its blue-purple eyes staring at Link were full of disdain and disgust: "I'm Hull, the enlightenment instructor who will guide you in your basic training. ”

Basic training?enlightenment instructor?otz,Is it really a game to wear......

At any other time, Link might have been happy to play an exciting live-action RPG, but with Yuan Ye already inexplicably asleep, he was more scared than curious about this wacky game.

The self-proclaimed Guru told Sù Link that he had been chosen by the gods of nature to be the messenger of the gods, the Child of Nature. Of course, this is only the stage of selection, and if you don't pass the guò test, you will lose all the blessings you have received. The fruit that is transformed into a book is called 'inheritance', and it is the fruit of an ancient guardian tree that grows on the spiritual veins, and can record and store the power obtained from the gods of nature. Because human knowledge is recorded and transmitted in the form of words, Link's legacy is also presented in the way that he can most accept.

The book is about A4 in size and ten centimeters thick, with a metal cover of white and black at the bottom, two circles of gold on the outside and silver on the inside, and the four-color crosshairs of red, blue, brown and green make this simple pattern look like a target + crosshair.

It turned out to be a skill book? so concrete...... You can actually hold it in your hand.

Flipping through the book that was heavy on the outside but didn't weigh much, Link was a little disappointed. He had thought that the 'legacy' as a manifestation of professional power would be something like a weapon or armor, which would at least be practical.

"The lineage records the knowledge of the children of nature from its birth to the present day, and it needs to be perceived to read, and the higher the resonance, the more divine grace will be obtained. As he explained, Hull motioned for Link to open the inheritance.

The moment the finger touched it, the text that was originally only slightly fluorescent suddenly burst into a dazzling bright light, refracting a translucent image in the air.

The first page is about the origin of the world. The primordial gods who were born together integrated themselves into the entire planet in order to create zào life, some incarnated as plants, some became animals, and the children of nature also appeared during this period, which is considered one of the oldest sapient beings.

Through the three-dimensional hologram, Link easily understood the meaning of the text. As the projection ended, the light attached to the pages dimmed as well, and he curiously turned the second page.

The ancient gods who assimilated with the planet became the 'pillars' that supported the world, some were mountains, some were oceans, and they were called the gods of nature by later generations. Every pillar is crucial, and if it is destroyed, the world will be unbalanced. The Children of Nature's role were to protect the pillars, and they drew on magical creatures and sapient humanoids to form the original druids. The former is a messenger of the gods, and the latter is a follower of the gods, and although they can both use the power of nature given by the gods, there is a world of difference in power. Druids usually have only one talent, while a Nature's Child, who is a god, is proficient in two or more talents.

After reading this explanation, Link secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it's not a waste wood profession, and when he was chosen, he was worried that it would be a druid of the DND class, but now it seems that he is more inclined to the four druids of the World of Warcraft.

The third page deals with the two factions of the Children of Nature - the Guardians and the Punishers. The former lived in seclusion in the mountains, and year after year he adhered to the duty of guarding the 'pillars', maintaining only minimal communication with the outside world. The latter uses violence to punish creatures that destroy nature and balance, and does not shy away from cooperating with evil creatures in order to achieve their goals, and is divided into chaos camps by many species.

Page 4 finally talks about the most crucial part of a career – talent. Transfiguration is the core ability of the children of nature, exercising the power of the gods in the form of an incarnation, and the level of the deity determines the strength of the deformation. Different gods have different powers, and the four elements, led by Isol, Gacos, Kaogo, and Andrea, are the highest in rank and have the strongest abilities among the children of nature.

It happened to break at a key point, and Link was about to turn the page, when he suddenly felt dizzy and couldn't use his hands and feet. The legacy fell off from his hand, turning into a flying fluorescent light as it was about to touch the ground.

"Over-perception of use, let's stop here for today. ”

Holding Link as he descended, Hull led him to a nearby treehouse, where he explained that he was resting and left with the elves.

In addition to the hammock made of rattan, the all-plank cottage had only half a wooden stake that could be used as both a table and a chair, and a thick layer of dust accumulated from the walls to the floor.

When the fatigue subsided, Link got up and went through the entire treehouse inside and out, finding nothing to save and record, and no interface that would appear like in the web novel. The inference of relying on storage points or magic items to get out of the game didn't hold water, and he sat down on a stake in frustration.

What should I do?Do I have to stay in the game from now on?What about the real body?Ah~~~ I don't want to be in a coma like Yuan Ye.

Link, who was so anxious that he scratched his head, suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

By the way, isn't it common for Japanese RPGs to touch the plot as soon as you sleep? Maybe that's how to get out of the game. Anyway, there's no other way now, so why not give it a try.

Lie back in the hammock and close your eyes in uneasiness and apprehension. I don't know if it's really as the birdman said that he consumes too much mental energy, or if he is bent on returning to reality, Link quickly falls asleep. When he woke up again, he was greeted by his familiar furnishings.

Really back!

The hands of the wall clock on the wall stopped at half past twelve, just half an hour after falling asleep. Looking at the computer again, the excitement of returning to reality suddenly dissipated without a trace. The screen shows the humble treehouse he was in before returning to reality, with a character who looks exactly like him lying in a hammock.

Hell, I haven't gotten rid of that damn game yet!
