Chapter 1 Can't Go Offline?
"Welcome to Lord of Glory."
"This is a paradise for the strong and a hell for the weak."
"Each player will become a lord, build a territory, gather resources, build trade relations, and lead his army to conquer the four directions."
"Each lord will have a chance to draw a starting class recruitment battalion, and randomly assign a territory and a number of initial resources, there is no absolute fairness, make good use of what you have."
"Unknown, or famous, dead like dust, or finally incarnated into eternity, all in one thought..."
...
Ji Chen sat on the wide white beach, his eyes staring blankly into the distance.
Looking at the exit key that disappeared in the last line of the menu bar, I had mixed feelings.
Things have to go back to more than ten minutes ago.
When he entered the new game "Lord of Glory" with anticipation, he planned to have a good time in this lord game known as a billion open beta players.
But what he didn't expect was that he couldn't choose to log out of the game after entering.
At the same time, there was a mechanical female voice in my ears.
Become a lord, draw troops, recruit troops...
He was stunned for a moment before relieving himself.
The mood is slightly mixed.
If he understands correctly, it's probably because the game is fused with reality, or it has traveled into the game.
But either way, it meant he couldn't go back.
Although this seems a little incredible, it is difficult to react at once.
But since things have become like this, I can only smile and raise my middle finger and face the reality.
But after the initial confusion.
Ji Chen was surprised to find that this was not an unacceptable thing for him.
On the contrary, my heart has begun to rejoice a little.
Well, life is a game.
Where to play is not to play?
Anyway, he has long lived alone, and there is nothing to worry about.
What's more, the world looks much more interesting.
The pictures of various fantasy creatures, army attacks, and the life of the lord in the game trailer slowly flashed through his mind.
The anticipation and excitement in my heart also slowly emerged.
Build and command thousands of armies, conquer lands and enemies, and become forever.
What was difficult to do in the past may be possible in this world.
"Now that you have entered this world, you can't change it and you can't go back, so it's better to abandon the past and embrace a new life, at least to live more exciting than before."
"I'm not left behind when the players are on the same page, it's time to act, every second counts in the early game!"
As soon as he thought of this, Ji Chen nodded firmly.
Shake off all the cluttered thoughts in his head, stand up and pat the sand on his buttocks.
Begin to carefully observe your surroundings.
In front of him, there is an endless sea, rippling blue waves, water and sky.
A flock of seagulls flew leisurely in the distant sky, the tide washed the delicate sand, making a rhythmic washing sound, and the salty sea breeze blowing in his face, making him feel a little relaxed.
On the left and right, long stretches of fine white sand stretch to black cliffs in the distance.
A broken two-masted schooner, half-diagonally stranded between the reef piles in the distance, mostly submerged in water, looked rather desolate.
"Looks like I'm near the sea, and the scenery is good."
Ji Chen turned around and looked behind him.
Behind it is a lush jungle with lush foliage and greenery.
Just as he wondered where his territory was.
An arrow sign suddenly appeared in front of me, pointing to a small jungle path.
"Your territory (54 meters away)."
Oh, it turned out to be in the jungle, not far from the sea.
Ji Chen paused, and did not choose to go to his territory immediately.
Instead, the menu bar was opened again.
In addition to the disappearing logout button, there are other options in the menu bar.
For example, personal panels, territory panels, etc.
At this time, it may not be in the territory yet, except for the personal panel, all other options are grayed out.
"The opening option you selected when you enter the game should be in your dashboard..."
He thought for a moment and clicked on the personal panel.
A curtain of light suddenly appeared in front of him.
[Name]: Ji Chen
[Level]: 1 (0%/100%)
[Identity]: Lord of the Sea
[Main Class]: Warrior (Trainee)
[Subclass]: Fisherman (New Beginner [Proficiency: 0/100])
[Lord's Talent]: Favor of the Sea I (Blue talent, a rare talent that can be evolved, favored by Mother Ocean, the concept of action is relatively broad, and the current clear role is: (1) It is easier to get the gift of the ocean (2) When the troops under your command are near the ocean, the recovery speed of physical strength and injuries is increased by 30%)
[Territory Name]: Nameless Village (can be changed)
[Territory Level]: Level 1 Village
[Class Recruiting Battalion]: Not available (the initial class recruiting camp draw opportunity has not been used)
[Item]: Worn Fishing Rod (1 Star Treasure)
When entering the game, except for the ability to choose the main class and the secondary class, the rest are randomly selected by the system.
Including identity, talents, advent location, etc.
At this time, Ji Chen also saw his random lord talent.
Blue talent, favored by the sea.
There was a bit of joy in his eyes, this seemed to be a rare evolvable talent?
Having played a lot of games, he naturally understands the meaning of "rare" and "evolvable".
To be able to draw this skill at random, the luck is simply not too good!
And the talent effect is like a sub-professional fisherman.
Look down.
It doesn't seem like he has drawn the recruiting battalion yet?
I wonder what kind of troops will be drawn?
As soon as this thought came to mind, the light curtain in front of him changed, and an ordinary turntable appeared on it, divided into twelve white grids, and the pointer was fixed upward.
There was a prompt in my ears.
"Ding~ Detect that you are the Lord of the Sea, and you are being put into the Ocean Class."
As soon as the words fell, twelve rays of light appeared from the edge of the light curtain, circled around a few times, and then burrowed into the turntable like a swallow returning to its nest.
The carousel grid changed, and dark shadows of some classes appeared.
Ji Chen's eyes widened.
I want to try to see what kind of class is in the grid.
But apart from the large blurred black shadows, it's hard to see what kind of class it is.
He took a deep breath, knowing that it was time for character and luck again.
As soon as his mind moved, the turntable spun on its own.
After a few quick rotations, the turntable gradually stops and points to one of the grids.
The turntable vanished, and a fat shadow emerged.
"Ding~ You drew the River Fishman (1st Order 2 stars)."
The corners of Ji Chen's mouth couldn't help twitching.
It turned out to be a first-order class.
The ranks of the troops in "Lord of Glory" are roughly divided into one ~ seven levels, with 1~9 stars per level.
And the level of the river fishman is only a first-order 2-star, not to mention that it is already the lowest order, which is the lowest existence even in the first order.
High EQ: I am higher than the first-order 1-star one.
Low EQ: I'm the second-to-last.
Randomly got a rare talent, but drew a low-level fishman.
The mechanical female voice at the beginning is right, there is no such thing as absolute fairness.
Ji Chen sighed slightly and turned off the light curtain.
Then, without further delay, following the instructions of the arrow, he walked briskly into the jungle path.
After following the trail for more than 50 meters, the eyes suddenly opened up.
A glade in the middle of the forest came into view.
There were several stilted wooden houses in the clearing, and more than forty villagers in rough clothes gathered in the middle, each looking eagerly anticipating, as if waiting for someone.
These villagers are in my territory, so they can't be my people, right?
Ji Chen thought about it and walked over.
Sure enough.
As soon as these villagers saw him, their eyes suddenly lit up, and they came to the front excitedly and knelt down in front of him with a "snap".
“¥%! @...”
Ji Chen couldn't help frowning, a little confused.
The villagers spoke obscure languages with strange voices and intonations, languages he had never been exposed to.
Just when he was feeling a little confused.
Suddenly, he noticed that the words echoing in his ears gradually changed, and he felt as if he understood a little bit.
At first, I understood a few simple words, then a short paragraph, and then several paragraphs connected to each other, and finally I understood them all, which is comparable to the level of my mother tongue.
The approximate meaning of what these villagers said was:
"Great Glory Lord, please save us!"
