Eventually, the light illuminated the world, and the evil slowly retreated...

The entire world first turned into a vast expanse of white, then slowly sank back into darkness.

In Xu Ge’s vision, two lines of beautiful artistic text appeared:

"The horn sounds, the battle of gods and demons."

"Elf Kingdom" expansion: God and Demon War, officially online!

The cutscene ends here.

The music changed suddenly, becoming passionate and uplifting.

But alongside the excitement, there was also a touch of solemnity.

This is the background music for the Goddess’s appearance on the battlefield in "Elf Kingdom," named "For the Glory of the Goddess."

Since it first appeared in "Elf Kingdom" more than twenty days ago, it quickly topped all major pure music charts, becoming a popular battle anthem of choice for many online games.

Listening to this battle song, the young and vigorous Xu Ge unconsciously felt his blood boiling until a clear and sacred but welcomingly pleasant voice rang out:

"Welcome, Chosen One from another world."

It was the Eve Goddess.

This extremely popular faction leader personally bestows blessings whenever a player logs into the game for the first time.

She is like a guide for the players.

Looking at the beautiful figure appearing in front of him, Xu Ge couldn’t help but be slightly stunned, and even a blush crept onto his face uncontrollably.

Beautiful... 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

Truly too beautiful!

Even though he had seen countless videos of the Goddess, seen countless pictures, even secretly looked up information about the Goddess many times on the pink app... at this moment, seeing her in the game, Xu Ge was still deeply shocked.

Because the effect of seeing it with one’s own eyes is several magnitudes higher than screenshots, higher than videos!

Sensation originates from the obtained information.

Photos record only images; videos merely add sound and motion, but in reality, certain sensory experiences cannot be captured and conveyed through pictures and videos.

For example, the moment seeing the Goddess, Xu Ge inexplicably felt a sense of inner peace, and couldn’t help feeling an urge to worship her...

For instance, being illuminated by the Goddess’s light, Xu Ge felt a warm sensation throughout his body, making him feel a sense of cleansing, purification, warmth, and satisfaction from body to soul...

Looking at the smiling Goddess in his view, Xu Ge, who had always been indifferent to reality, suddenly felt that reality might not be beyond saving after all.

It was just that he subconsciously forgot that he was still in the game.

"Who can resist this..."

At this moment, this was the only thought on the young man’s mind.

In a daze, under the Goddess’s guidance, he chose a power-oriented class and was randomly granted the skills "Appraisal" and "Triple Slash" by the Goddess, and then, with a reluctant heart, he pressed the option to officially enter the game...

The vision suddenly turned dark, and the feeling of weightlessness came again.

As if passing through an invisible barrier, it was like the sudden stop of an elevator with poor quality; a slight dizziness arose in the brain.

The next moment, Xu Ge felt himself standing on the ground.

The vision abruptly brightened, a pure white expanse, with fresh air that was refreshing, leading him to take a deep breath.

At the same time, a faint aroma wafted into his nostrils, seemingly some kind of barbecue, along with the wheat scent of bread and a subtle milky aroma, causing the young man who had eaten just over an hour ago to feel hunger again.

It was fragrant.

Faint sounds of conversations and street vendors reached his ears, and it seemed there were some sounds like the roars of livestock, and upon careful listening, there might also be the sounds of blacksmithing, the noise of carriages...

Though the vision hadn’t fully returned, Xu Ge’s mind already painted a picture of a bustling and lively medieval city scene.

A cheerful elf tune played, and at last, his vision returned to normal.

A city far richer, more beautiful, and more fantastical than imagined appeared before his eyes.

Rows upon rows of buildings, lush greenery, neat stone brick roads, and elves riding or leading demon beasts on the streets...

And Xu Ge, who had just arrived, appeared on such a bustling street.

This is the main city of "Elf Kingdom," the Chosen City.

Despite having seen it numerous times in videos, being here in person, his heart was still filled with awe.

"Chosen City! This is Chosen City!"

He exclaimed excitedly to himself.

No one paid attention to the newly arrived Xu Ge.

In fact, similar arrivals were happening all over Chosen City at that moment, and players had already become accustomed to it.

The newbie guide missions’ rewards were long overlooked by the seasoned players; it was only some who had nothing better to do who wanted to bring in newcomers that would wander around the city, observing, looking for pleasing novices.

Unfortunately, most of them were focused on the girls.

In online games, girls naturally receive more attention than guys, let alone in a gender-specific binding game like "Elf Kingdom."

And just as Xu Ge curiously and excitedly surveyed the surroundings, the voice chat of a certain messaging app running in the background came on...

It was Zhao Linqian.

Xu Ge chuckled, opened the system interface, summoned the background messenger app, and connected the voice chat:

"Hello? Miss Zhao? You logged on?"

"Still customizing my avatar, wait for me!"

Xu Ge: ...

Suddenly, he had a bad feeling.

"Then hurry up! I’ll explore the city in the meantime."

He said.

And the girl confidently replied:

"No problem, I’ll be quick! Oh, first, let me know your ID so I can note it down and add you later."

Xu Ge instinctively wanted to reply but then was suddenly struck by a thought and chuckled:

"I’ll send it to you on the app to avoid any mistakes."

He said, then sent his ID over.

A moment later...

"Ye Ye?"

A curious voice of the girl came from the system.

"Hey, that’s right!"

Xu Ge replied.

Zhao Linqian: ...

"Go away."

She hung up the voice chat.
