Mountains, woods, and a small stream.
Lu Xun once again looked at this unfamiliar world, his mouth twitching slightly.
Indeed, he was an orphan from a young age, qualifying for the first rule of transmigration and the characteristics of the orphanage, but he never thought he would truly experience it one day himself.
“What about my sister?” That was Lu Xun’s first thought.
Although his parents left him early, he had a sister to rely on.
Fortunately, he had purchased a life insurance policy for himself, with his sister, Lu Yu, as the beneficiary. This gave him some peace of mind.
“Little Yu will have an insurance payout. At least she’ll have some livelihood security.”
Interestingly, on this day, two of his ex-girlfriends were bickering about reconciling with him. Now it seems the problem has sorted itself out.
An outstanding man ultimately lives a tough life.
He now knew what type of world he had arrived in. The reflection in the stream was a face he found eerily familiar.
With sharp eyebrows, starry eyes, and delicate facial features, the face reflected was impeccably handsome.
“Is there really such a handsome person in this world?”
Why the familiarity? Because this face was one he had sculpted himself before the transmigration.
Yes, he crafted this face himself.
It belonged to the game character he just created, sculpting faces during character creation being standard procedure. He adjusted the beauty level to 10, and carefully made some slight modifications according to his preferences. And so, this face came into being.
“So, I transmigrated into ‘Heavenly Dust’?”
There’s no need to mention the wild popularity of the game ‘Heavenly Dust’. Suddenly skyrocketing into prominence, the game led players to marvel if they were experiencing a real world!
Inventive players speculated that they weren’t just playing a game but had become high-dimensional projections in a true alternate universe.
Heavenly Dust is a fantasy-style game. Flying through the sky, walking through earth, and sword-flying – the game offered all these features and incredible freedom.
Lu Xun was a die-hard fan of the game, or more precisely, he relied on it for survival.
Although he wasn’t part of any gaming organization, he indeed made quite a lot of money from Heavenly Dust.
Just now, he made this new account to complete a somewhat complicated and difficult task for newbies. After that, he planned to sell the account, which could fetch a high price.
Who knew he would inexplicably transmigrate!
There has to be something wrong with this new account!
Thankfully, seeing his handsome face greatly comforted him.
Lu Xun stopped looking at the reflection in the water and sat by the stream, examining his own [character panel].
Transmigrating into a game world while still having the game interface was quite a pleasant surprise.
But what surprised him was why his template was an NPC’s?
Yet, thinking about it, since he was no longer a game player, it made sense.
The panel unfolded before him, and he could clearly see his own statistics:
Name: Lu Xun.
Template: NPC.
Race: Human Race.
Level: Level 0.
Experience Points: 0/100.
Life Value: 100/100.
Spirituality Value: 0/0.
Enlightenment: 1. (can level up, maximum of 10).
Luck: 1. (cannot level up).
Charisma: 10. (max value reached).
There were also some attributes that he couldn’t open yet. They weren’t written on the information panel. There was only one summarizing sentence at the bottom:
[An astonishingly handsome mortal.]
Typically, no matter how handsome a character’s face is sculpted, they start at “Charisma 1”, and in the eyes of NPCs, they are always average.
The appearance of a player’s character has no effect on NPCs.
Perhaps because Lu Xun had become a living being, or because his template was NPC, his charisma was maxed out!
He didn’t think too much about it. Being handsome was sufficient!
After closing the character panel, Lu Xun seemed to remember something. He quickly reopened it and looked at the bottom right corner.
The bottom right corner read: [Resurrection Count: 3].
“Phew, thankfully I brought the resurrection times along.” Lu Xun breathed a sigh of relief.
Ordinary players can accumulate resurrection times, albeit with a maximum count of 10. Gaining resurrection times is certainly a good thing. Lu Xun doubted if he could do the same, figuring he might only have these 3, after which he’d be done for.
He paid extra attention to the resurrection count for two reasons. Firstly, as he’d have to live in this world, any additional safeguard was a good thing. Secondly, he was considering whether to take on a complex and somewhat difficult newbie task, which would consume one resurrection count.
In simpler terms, if Lu Xun decided to accept this task, he would be risking one of his lives!
This was something he needed to thoroughly ponder. While the returns were tremendous, with players labeling it as one of the perfect starts, he only had three lives at his disposal. He needed to weigh his choices carefully.
“However, taking into account the current situation, it seems like the alternative perfect start would entail an even bigger sacrifice!” After some deep contemplation, Lu Xun found himself in a quandary.
By choosing the perfect start, the journey ahead would be smoother, with fewer future risks.
By going for the suboptimal start, he could save a life for now, but it might affect him later.
“Gurgle—”, his stomach made a sound as he was deep in thought.
Oh, the terrible hunger!
Lu Xun suddenly heard a faint sound from behind him.
A silhouette was rushing towards him at high speed.
The figure advanced quickly, and with his current abilities, Lu Xun could only see an afterimage.
“Dammit, I’ve encountered someone with cultivation!” Lu Xun cursed inwardly.
The figure seemingly just happened to be passing by and didn’t seem intent on stopping, but seeing Lu Xun turn his head, their gazes met.
It was just an ordinary gaze, but after seeing Lu Xun’s appearance, the figure couldn’t help but express surprise.
Then, the figure changed directions. With a gentle tap on a tree branch, they gracefully landed not far from Lu Xun.
The figure wore a veil, covering half their face. The face remained unclear, but the figure was slim.
The eyes visible from behind the veil were beautiful, but why did they remind him of a high schooler playing cosplay?
He had a palpable sense that a certain naive air lingered about the figure.
Anyway, judging by the movements from earlier, her level was much higher than Lu Xun’s and enough to easily suppress him.
As a level 0, Lu Xun had no rights. In the Heavenly Dust Continent, he was currently the lowest of the low!
So, he was curious about the intentions of the newcomer and instinctively remained vigilant.
This person, who could not be easily determined as either a woman or a young girl, carefully looked up and down at Lu Xun several times before fixing her gaze on his face, seemingly unable to look away.
She couldn’t help sharing what was on her mind:
“Truly the highest level of furnace cauldron!”
