Heroes' Prison-Chapter 1237 - 1176: Creating a Race
Half an hour later, Huang Yi gathered the high-level management of the Hero Empire and several main NPCs in the Holy Land to start creating a race.
"This is the Heart of the Race!" Huang Yi raised the heart in his hand and said to everyone.
After dispelling the aura of the Half-Beastmen from the Heart of the Race, its color had changed from golden yellow to flesh red. It was still beating strongly, faintly emitting a surging aura.
"What should the new race be called?" the White Dragon King stared intently at the Heart of the Race, excitedly saying.
He was the one who initially proposed this plan. When Huang Yi was still a newbie, he had already mentioned the idea of creating a race to him. Back then, it was just a desire, but now, it was about to become a reality.
"We’ve been using ’Hero’ as a name all along, Hero Guild, Hero Empire, to Heroism Religion... How about this race keeping the consistency and being called Hero Race?" suggested Huī Dāo Zhǎn Hóng Chén, the leader of the Heroism Religion.
"No, that’s too strange!" Qin Shiyu shook his head, "We want to create a dragon-related race, so the name needs at least the word ’Dragon’ in it to show the race’s characteristics."
"How about Hero Dragon Race?" Overlord suggested, combining different aspects to come up with a new name.
"That’s too awkward; just call it Dragonkin!"
"Dragonkin lacks uniqueness, maybe something more assertive, like Super Dragonian Race!"
"Dominating Dragon Clan!"
"Divine Dragon Race!"
"How about Proud Dragon Clan? It has an air of aloofness."
The scene became lively as everyone began to voice their opinions, even the Semigod Guardians joining the discussion.
Huang Yi took all their opinions into account and thought for a moment, then said, "Let’s call it Elite Dragon Race! ’Elite’ implies both heroism and excellence, and the three words Elite Dragon Race sound smooth and memorable."
When Huang Yi said this, everyone nodded in agreement; the name was reasonable and not too strange.
Having unified everyone’s opinion, Huang Yi immediately chose to use the Heart of the Race.
"[System Prompt]: You have used the [Heart of the Race] and are about to create a race. Please name the race."
"Elite Dragon Race!"
"Naming successful!"
"Please choose the race’s alignment—
[The Second World Race]: Will be restricted by The Second World’s moral concepts, unable to do things that harm The Second World, or risk becoming enemies of The Second World. Choosing this alignment allows the race to be included in the new player’s selectable race list.
[Non-The Second World Race]: Not restricted by The Second World’s moral concepts, can harm The Second World, and members can have greater strength. Choosing this alignment means the race won’t be in the new player’s selectable race list."
Without hesitation, Huang Yi directly chose for the Elite Dragon Race to become a race of The Second World!
He leaned emotionally towards guarding The Second World. Moreover, this allows the Elite Dragon Race to be an option when players create characters, providing an extra channel for growth and expansion.
The Non-The Second World Race is similar to the Demon Clan; their strength would be greater, but players cannot directly join when creating characters, only joining later on.
Currently, in The Second World, only a small portion of players join the Demon Clan, while most still stand with The Second World, which is the mainstream thought.
"Please choose the strength of the race—
[Rare Race]: Possesses the strongest racial skills and racial talents. Only new players who choose Rare Quests and achieve a 50% completion rate have a chance to randomly select this race, or can join later through certain adventures.
[High-level Race]: Possesses medium racial skills and racial talents. Only new players who purchase advanced virtual devices have a chance to randomly select this race, or can join later through certain adventures.
[Common Race]: Possesses the weakest racial skills and racial talents. Any new player can directly choose this race when creating a character, becoming an Innate Clansman. Others can later choose to join, becoming Acquired Clansmen, but racial skills and talents will be somewhat weakened."
These three options are essentially about the entry barriers for the race, similar to the race barriers faced by new players entering The Second World for the first time.
Players of Rare Race are the strongest but fewest; those who can achieve a 50% completion in Rare Quests are elite among elites.
Players of High-level Race come next; only those wealthy enough to afford rings, glasses, and other advanced virtual devices are eligible to join.
Common Race is the weakest but has no barrier, allowing everyone to join. The vast majority of players worldwide are of Common Race. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞
Huang Yi had planned in advance to prioritize the largest number of members, so he quickly made the decision to set the Elite Dragon Race as a Common Race, allowing anyone to join. Even current players in The Second World, who already have a race, can join the Elite Dragon Race anytime, becoming Acquired Clansmen.
After making these choices, in the next moment, two solemn and holy announcements echoed across the entire sky of The Second World—
"[System Announcement]: [God of Slaughter]has created the first Heaven-Sent Race [Elite Dragon Race], rewarding 1000 Public Prestige, and received [Unique Achievement]—[First Race], The Second World Honor Value +1."
"[System Announcement]: Due to [God of Slaughter]creating a new Heaven-Sent Race [Elite Dragon Race], system basic settings have been modified, [Elite Dragon Race] has been added to the selectable race list, and new players can choose to join Elite Dragon Race when creating characters."
The Second World, over two hundred continents, with tens of billions of online players, all heard these two announcements!
The world’s first player-created race had finally been born!
This was completely different from previously creating a guild, country, or religion. Those were just normal powers within the game, whose existence or destruction wouldn’t affect the system settings.
Creating a race, however, modified the system settings, a completely different nature!
In a sense, Huang Yi was doing something only Era of Corporation’s program engineers could do.
This was the first time in history! No player before had achieved anything of this magnitude, not even the strongest Spirit Demon or Heavenly Demon of today.
Huang Yi walked ahead of everyone!
While everyone worldwide was still reeling from the announcements, Huang Yi received a new system prompt.
"[System Prompt]: Please complete the basic settings of the Elite Dragon Race."
Then, a virtual panel popped up in front of him, filled with options for him to complete the basic settings of the Elite Dragon Race.
Huang Yi quickly got busy. First, he set the Racial Holy Land of the Elite Dragon Race as this Holy Land, which was rich in nature’s spiritual energy, more suitable than anywhere else to be a Racial Holy Land.
He also set different treatment for different clansmen.
Those Innate Clansmen, or new players just entering The Second World who chose the Elite Dragon Race when creating a character, would have a higher race status and benefits.
While those Acquired Clansmen would have a lower status unless they could receive special promotions from the race’s higher-ups.
Finally, Huang Yi set the race’s organizational structure as a ’clan system,’ with various clans within the race. Each clan had its own racial talents and skills, led by their respective clan leaders. After joining the Elite Dragon Race, players could choose different clans based on their preferences. But no matter which clan, they are all part of the Elite Dragon Race.
After completing all these basic settings, Huang Yi raised the heart, looking around at everyone, and said, "The race has been created, next comes the founding of clans. White Dragon King, you shall be the first! You will serve as the leader of the Bai Long Clan under the Elite Dragon Race. Please drop your blood into this Heart of the Race!"
"Alright!" The White Dragon King nodded his dragon head excitedly, opened his mouth, and released a drop of essence blood, which flew onto the Heart of the Race.
The Heart of the Race quickly absorbed the White Dragon King’s drop of essence blood like a sponge.
Thus, the Bai Long Clan was officially founded!
Huang Yi then looked at the Sea Dragon Emperor and said, "Sea Dragon Emperor, you also drop a drop of blood into this Heart of the Race; from now on, you will be the leader of the Sea Dragon Clan!"
The Sea Dragon Emperor waved his hand and said, "Let my Third Prince Jin Jiao do it! I’ve already planned to pass down my clan leader position to him." As he said this, he petted a cute child with dragon horns beside him and said, "Quickly, release a drop of your essence blood!"
"Okay, Father Emperor!" Jin Jiao blinked his large eyes, opened his mouth, and released a drop of essence blood, dropping it into the Heart of the Race.
Thus, the Sea Dragon Clan was officially founded!
Next, Huang Yi took the Heart of the Race and faced the Great General of the Deep Sea Dragon Tribe from Melva World—Divine Dragon Yue Hao, who had contributed greatly in the recent Half-Beastmen’s annihilation war. Huang Yi had truly considered him a trusted ally.
Huang Yi looked at him and said, "General Yue Hao, go ahead and create a Deep Sea Clan! From now on, your Deep Sea Dragon People will not be limited to Melva World but can also flourish in The Second World, so you won’t bring shame to your clansmen."
"Thank you, God of Slaughter!" General Yue Hao’s eyes welled up with blood tears, which dripped onto the Heart of the Race.
More thrilled than anyone else, he had previously lost a battle against the Spiritual Sect in Melva World, felt guilty, and didn’t dare face a report, which is why he came here.
Now, he finally cleansed his disgrace and made a great contribution for his race.
His blood tears were quickly absorbed into the Heart of the Race, marking the founding of the ’Deep Sea Clan.’
