Lost Temple Chapter 1

In the year 2200, the world's population exploded, and already exhausted energy could not support the consumption of such a large number of people. The World Federation of Organizations, in partnership with dozens of technological and economic powers, finally developed a world-shocking project, Lost Temple (50 years ago). Lost Temple is A large-scale group of brainwave online games that can support more than one-third of the world's population at the same time online. This is a game with a very high degree of freedom. According to the contents of the developer’s previous propaganda, it is not even an exaggeration to say that it is a new continent opened up. Imagine that more than one-third of the world’s population is now lying in a nutrition warehouse, using nutrient solutions to sustain their lives, and even after the game age reaches a certain year, they can apply for a system NPC – that is, stay in virtual s.p.a.ce permanently. This virtually solved the world’s energy and economic crisis. At the same time, “Lost Temple” is also highly sought after by the majority of people in the world for its unparalleled charm and 100% fidelity.

Su Yi unpacked the huge delivery parcels from the express delivery and a.s.sembled the deluxe game rooms that he had ordered a few days ago. The game store had spent at least one-fifth of his savings, but seeing the full functionality that comes with this “big guy”, Su Yi could not help but lift up his lips. Wasting this amount of money is definitely not bad. Although in order to promote the “Lost Temple” plan, the government has free rations to distribute simple games, but that thing can never be compared with the official release of the deluxe version. Not to mention the comfort of the internal facilities alone, some of the convenience features of the Deluxe Edition are beyond the ordinary version. Turning on the automatic supply of nutrient solution, Su Yi scanned a room with a simple layout and placed himself into a ready-to-complete game room.

"This is an age when theocracy and power are chaotic. The struggle of various forces and the hatred between races have brought the mainland into a war, young people.. are you ready?"

Su Yi smiled a bit, it seems that this game really unique, even the opening field are designed to have such a momentum. Naturally, the choice of "yes" was expected. There was no expected selection of ethnic characters in front of him, but an examination paper written on parchment. Taking a look at this kind of thing resembling a heart questionnaire, Su Yi’s heart sighed. The developer of Lost Temple really took a great deal of thought in this game. Fortunately, the paper is not long, and for China has only 10 multiple-choice questions. After answering the questions quickly, he answered and waited for about ten seconds. The system sounded again.

“Strengthen your will, young people, maybe the world will change because of you. Please relax and accept the test of the system.”

In fact, this was only a systematic scan of his physical condition to determine the basic attributes of the characters after the character was created. After a warm light swept by the body, Su Yi discovered that there was a person who was exactly the same as himself. Slightly pointed ears, silver hair, purple eyes, gray skin, all this shows the characteristics of the Demon. Oh, the original system race that tested is Demon.

“Please name your new ident.i.ty.”
“Black Mark”
"Please adjust the appearance of the character. This game is based on the basic characteristics of the player to create a character, the player can choose to change the hairstyle and pupil color, the character appearance has a 20% fluctuation value, the modified value of the floating value will be the same with your attribute value.”
“Reduce 10%.” He likes to be low-key, but he doesn’t like to smash his face into an ugly man…
“After the adjustment, because your figure is 10% lower, you can choose to increase a property by 10%. Which attribute do you choose?”
“Lucky.” Through the previous understanding, Su Yi knows that the characters in the game are divided into strength, agility, intelligence, spirit, endurance, luck and charm. Since character attributes are based on their own situation, and they do not know the specific values, blindly adding to the first few are unwise choices. But fortunately it is different, but this determines the odds of dropping and the triggering rate of the task. There is no more.
“Immediately modified, will you enter the game?”
“enter.”

Finally, the tedious process of character creation was completed. Su Yi, who is now supposed to be called Black Mark, eagerly looked at the situation of his birthplace. It is indeed a Demon, completely red and dark colors, the magnificent central temple is a bottomless blood pool, it seems that is where the Demon player was born.

“Hey.. you erotic person, we use another method to obtain our own salvation. You are welcome to become a member of the Demon clan ‘Black Mark’.” An old voice rang in his ears and he looked around, the NPC wearing a black cloak standing on the edge of the blood pool is really in line with his own aesthetics. It seems that the Demon is indeed a suitable race for him.

A cold wind blows, and Black Mark can’t help but sneeze. There is no way for anyone to let him who has just climbed out of the blood pool to become a little demon. Even the profession has not yet been determined. There is no way to collect new equipment, so now there was only one pitiful underpants covering his entire body…

The immediate task now is to hurry to choose a profession for himself, hurry to get a coat of clothes, and get rid of this semi-streaking (erotic) state. Black Mark call out the character’s attribute menu, first look at his own attributes and then decide on the profession to be chosen.

It doesn’t matter if you look at it. At first glance, your eyes are almost out of the window—this is… What kind of property is this?

ID：Black Mark
Grade：1
Race: Demon
Occupation: Unknown
HP：30
MP：250
Strength：10
Agility：42
Intelligence : 5
Spirit：18
Endurance：2
Lucky: Invisible
Charm: Invisible

The numerical difference between these several attributes is too unbalanced, right? And why does your HP only have 30? ? ? This is not to say that even rabbits in Xinshoucun can send themselves back to livelihoods? The intelligence is not high, it seems that the practice division is hopeless, the blood is so few, and the soldier is even more playful. The only thing that is gratifying is that the agile number is high enough. It seems that one can only choose to rely on the agile eating profession. (Because the character’s value is based on the player’s own situation, and currently there is no basis for the reference, so Black Mark did not know if his own deviant values would appear to others in the future.)

With a sigh, he walked up to the professional elders and turned over the inauguration book that was more than an inch thick.

Ten minutes pa.s.sed and twenty minutes pa.s.sed. Half an hour pa.s.sed and one hour pa.s.sed…

A cold wind blows through… A crow flies over…

Traces of black eyes are now spiraling… What is this? ? ? How can there be so many professions! ! ! No wonder that ‘Lost Temple’ used the player’s professions as a reserved program in its pre-promotion – so many professions, even if the developers wanted to introduce it, they couldn’t introduce it…

But fortunately, even if there are too many professions to watch, they can be divided into four major categories: Warrior, Master, Restoration, and Special.

The so-called Warrior division, needless to say that nature is based on Berserker, Dragon Knight, Knight Templar, Swordsmen as representative to this series of close combat professions, there are even Amazon warriors dedicated to women players and Barbarians dedicated to male players.

The Master division is very good, they are the elements of the magician, the Warlock, the Necromancer, and the Summoner, all belong to the Master.

The Restoration profession of the system is better differentiated. The general monks, druids, priests, priestesses, etc., who can cure the injuries and cure the bad states are belong to the category of restoration systems.

Special division are the most controversial categories, and the professions are varied, but they all have one characteristic, that is, have one or more special skills. For example, thieves, a.s.sa.s.sins, ninjas, bards, archers and other professions.

Due to a large number of professions, Lost Temple stipulates that a player can select up to two professions positions for one player, but the relative experience of upgrading and learning professional skills for two-time players is equivalent to twice that of a professional player. This is for the fairness of the game. In addition, the selection of equipment for dual-professions is based on the minimum standard. For example, if a player is a swordsman and a magician, he can only wear the wizard’s robe, and he cannot wear the swordsman’s armor. – This is taken for granted, otherwise a deviant magician who is invisible can wear a heavy armor to attack at the same time?

Due to a lot of restrictions, the double-professional setting has a somewhat tasteless. Although there are two professions that can be freely chosen, the actual number of double-professionals is not large, and the results are even rarer, and most of them are all a.s.sa.s.sin and Rogue which are two similar professions.

After reading for a half-day Black Mark still didn’t choose a profession that suits him. After all, his own property value is there, which limits him to many professions. Once again, he sneezed and realized that he was not sure if he would become the first player in Lost Temple to catch cold because he had no clothing to wear. With clenching his teeth eventually he selected the combined profession of archers and bards. Although the a.s.sa.s.sin is also relying on agile to get the advantages of the profession, but look at his own blood – stay still in the distance to shot an arrows is more at ease … After all, unless you have a special situation in the game, one death will be punished by reducing the level of 10% of the same level. That is to say, when you died at the 10th level you lost one level, and if you were in 20th level and died, you dropped two levels, and so on. The higher the level of the death, the more severe the punishment.

Take over the rookie’s leather suit, a long bow with a quiver, and a silver harp. The backpack on the back was equipped with a new backpack, carrying five copper arrows. Su Yi officially took his first real step in Lost Temple.

"The freedom of heart determines that you are unable to become a hero in the general sense, but you will also find your own value in the corresponding place."

Freedom of heart? To put it bluntly, his long-term reliance on puzzling things turned out to be a clear one in the game – what he had been desperately pursuing before … that is no other than to be “free”.
