As his body trembled and his heart beat faster, Xia Yan pressed the confirm button.
After clicking on it, the dialog box on the screen disappeared, and the display fell into darkness, no different from a computer that had been turned off.
As the blades of the old electric fan on the table turned, time passed, and everything seemed to have never happened. It was as if everything just now was just Xia Yan's own imagination. The dark single-room apartment returned to normal.
As time went by, Xia Yan, who was sitting in front of the computer and not daring to breathe, gradually relaxed. There was a trace of disappointment in the corner of his eyes. He leaned back in the chair and tilted his head with a self-deprecating chuckle.
"What's wrong with me? How can something like that happen in novels…"
However, at this moment, something unimaginable happened.
A golden envelope suddenly appeared in the middle of the computer screen that had returned to normal. It shot at Xia Yan's head when he was caught off guard!
Xia Yan was shocked. He instinctively wanted to retreat, but his reaction speed was not as fast as the envelope. Before Xia Yan could react, the envelope had already shot into his head.
In an instant, Xia Yan felt that he had lost control of his entire body. He sat stiffly on the spot like a piece of wood, unable to move at all. Despite his fear, he did not panic. Instead, he calmed down.
What was going on?
Xia Yan's heart tightened, and a drop of cold sweat trickled down his forehead. The feeling of losing control of his body was not good, but his childhood experience made him much calmer than his peers.
However, at this moment, a friendly but genderless voice sounded in Xia Yan's mind.
"Hello, Xia Yan. Welcome to the Empire Club. You are the 10010th preparatory member of this game. From now on, the service time for newbies will be ten minutes. If you have any questions, please ask me during the service time for newbies. I will answer any questions within my authority.”
This voice didn't make Xia Yan panic. Instead, it made him heave a sigh of relief. As long as it wasn't a ghost or something, this development was indeed within his expectations.
The voice didn't wait for Xia Yan to calm down. It paused for a few seconds before it continued,
"Empire Club is a club that hosts a game across dimensions. Members can get what they want from the game, as well as the punishment for failure.”
"The game is multiplayer. The multiplayer system meant that you could interact with other members in the game. The scenario system meant that the game was played one scenario at a time. After the Summoner completed a scenario, he would exit the game and return to the real world. After waiting for a while, he would enter the next scenario. The gameplay of each scenario was different. The specific details were explained by the scenario instructor.”
It was important to note that every member had the opportunity to awaken their initial talent. "All members have various ability values that have been digitized. Now, I will do a body scan for you to obtain your various ability values. Please wait a moment."
Xia Yan felt as if his entire body had been scanned by a certain existence. Then, the voice continued,"Now, I will show you your various stats."
As soon as he finished speaking, a few stats appeared in front of Xia Yan's eyes:
Stamina: 7(Poor)
Intelligence: 15 (Excellent)
Agility: 8 (Slightly Poor)
Charm: 9 (Passerby appearance, one point deducted for sloppy dressing)
Perception: 12 (Slightly Sharp)
Special Skills: No
Talent Origin: Unawakened
VIP Points: 1
After a while, the voice continued to ring,"I'm not sure if you've awakened.
" Stamina represents the development of your body and bones, your strength, endurance, and so on.
Intelligence represents the development of your brain, your brain's reaction speed, and your knowledge.
Agility represents the reaction speed of your entire body's motor nerves and the flexibility of your muscles, and your body's reaction speed.
Charisma represents your appearance and figure, as well as your eloquence and personality. It represents your popularity. The upper limit of the human race was 20 points.
Perception represents your hearing, smell, taste, vision, premonition, and the degree of concentration of your thoughts. It represents the strength of your perception
. The average human value of the above five attributes is 10 points. Above 13 points is excellent, and below 7 points is poor. There are more appropriate explanations in the parenthesis.
Special skills could generally be understood as superpowers that ordinary people did not have.
Excuse me, do you want to awaken your talent now? After awakening the talent, the game's entrance ceremony would be held within ten minutes. Only after clearing the stage could one become an official member.”
As the voice continued to explain, the fear in Xia Yan's heart gradually dissipated and was replaced by excitement.
It was true! This calm and peaceful daily life finally had a turn for the better. He carefully looked at the various indicators of his body displayed in his brain. Xia Yan, who was very self-aware, found that it was more consistent with his current situation.
As an otaku who had not exercised for a long time, it was normal for his physical fitness to be lower than that of an ordinary person. Moreover, he was only eighteen years old and his body had not yet grown.
In terms of looks, Xia Yan had never put much effort into his own dressing.
His acute perception was probably due to the environment he had lived in since he was young. As for his intelligence, Xia Yan had never realized that he was actually very smart. Although he did not study much, he could still get into Shanghai University.
After a while, Xia Yan finally calmed down, but he still had some questions.
"What is an innate awakening?"
"Every member is chosen by the Empire Club because they have hidden talents. And to develop it was to awaken one's talent. Moreover, the talent would accompany the member's gaming career.”
Xia Yan finally understood.
This talent was the same as his birth. It was an alternative random draw of initial attributes. Reality made Xia Yan deeply understand the benefits of having high initial attributes. He was looking forward to what kind of talent he would have.
According to the voice, he wasn't an official member yet. He was just a reserve member.
"Um, what are the so-called VIP points?”
"VIP points can increase a member's attributes and skill level. It was the common currency that circulated among members.”
Xia Yan fell silent. He was digesting this sudden change.
The amount of information is a little too much. Please give me some time to calm down.
"Then let's do it now. The awakening of your talent.”
Xia Yan let out a sigh of relief. In the end, he left everything to fate.
Whether it was a dragon or an insect would depend on the awakening of this talent.
"After the talent is awakened, the membership game will begin immediately. -- After ten seconds, the awakening will begin. Ten, nine, eight…"
"Hey, wait, what happens if I fail the membership game?!？!”
However, this time, the voice didn't reply to Xia Yan's question so considerately.
"Four, three, two, one! Extracting the source."
It was as if something was being extracted, causing Xia Yan's consciousness to sink into darkness.
