Chapter 20 The First Thing to Do when Entering a Holographic Virtual Game
After the race selection is completed, the detail adjustment options appear on the panel.
Appearance adjustment? All up! Optimization range 100%! What? Only 20% can be corrected at most? Then max it out!
After a series of extremely skilled operations, Jiang Heng finally looked at the elf youth with satisfaction, whose appearance seemed to have turned on a filter, and then felt a little regretful.
What is the first thing to do when entering the holographic virtual game?
That's right, create a female character!
But after searching through all the options, he didn't see the gender option.
Jiang Heng swore that he would report this serious, stupid, pathetic, and unforgivable vicious bug to the official after he went offline!
After the character was created, the panel showed the birthplaces available for selection: Gloria Empire, Saint Messia Empire, and Itel Kingdom Federation. There is also a background introduction below each region.
At the bottom of the panel is the character name input box and a dice, with two lines of notes below.
'The character name is the name of the player by the NPC in the game, and it can be changed in the game after registration. ’
‘※ Note that a character name that is too special may attract the attention and disgust of the NPC. Random registration is recommended. ’
Attention and disgust? Are NPCs so smart?
Jiang Heng was stunned. Out of the habit of professional players trying new things, he withdrew his hand that was originally intended to register randomly and entered a character name by himself:
Laboratory Dragonborn
The landing area selected the Gloria Empire. After clicking to confirm, the crystal panel turned into light spots and drifted away.
Everything in front of him began to blur, and a pleasant prompt sound came at the end.
"Thank you for playing and experiencing "Mysterious Era". I wish you a happy life~~~"
When his vision returned to normal, Jiang Heng, wearing a hooded gray linen civilian costume, stood beside the flat white stone road.
Exquisite brick and stone structures stretched from both sides of the road to the distance, and verdant vines climbed beside the antique lattice windows.
The light blue and magenta tile roofs shone brightly, and the black iron weather vane gently rotated on the roof ridge.
The sky was pure blue, with a few clouds lazily dotted in it, dazzlingly white.
The four-wheeled carriages of the nobles drove slowly in the middle of the road, and professionals in armor walked on both sides of the road. From time to time, vendors wandered in the crowd, selling some snacks and small handmade goods.
The towering city wall stood a little further away, and the mottled walls of gray rocks were covered with moss.
The guards patrolled under the city wall, and the morning sun was blocked by the city wall, casting a huge shadow, covering Jiang Heng.
The noise of the crowd echoed in his ears, and the air carried the unique atmosphere of a medieval city.
Looking at everything around him in amazement, Jiang Heng couldn't help but walk to the wall of the building next to him, stretched out his hand to touch the slightly rough brick wall, and even tried to lick it.
The cold and rough touch came from his fingertips, which was no different from touching real stone.
When you get closer, you can even smell the unique astringent smell produced by the sun exposure on the surface of the stone.
"My God... If I hadn't known in advance, I would have even thought that all this was true!"
A civilian passing by accidentally heard this sentence and couldn't help but look at the elf with a fool's eyes.
The last dragonborn, immersed in amazement, did not notice this episode. He raised his hand to call out the panel, and a crystal-like panel appeared in front of him. The style was unexpectedly very consistent with the surrounding medieval environment.
In fact, the panel in the game is completely controlled by thoughts. The last dragonborn played a lot of VR online games and got used to manual operation.

In addition to various attributes, the mailbox column in the lower right corner of the panel suddenly flashed, and an email popped up automatically.
New message?
The last dragon curiously clicked it and found that it was the game instructions and game guide sent by the official to new players.
"Mysterious Era" Player Instructions:
Dear players, thank you for purchasing and registering this game.
... This game is a 98.25% simulated immersive game, and the pain can be adjusted between 1% and 10%, with an upper limit of 10%
... Note that due to the high degree of simulation, the NPCs in the game have the same intelligence and emotions as real people, so please do not let your guard down against any NPC!
... In order to ensure authenticity, the communication system in the game uses pigeons, and all new players can get a primary pigeon for free.
The pigeons and the system panel are both indestructible and cannot be seen by NPCs. Players can input text with the keyboard or write letters directly.
Depending on the distance between the sender and the recipient, each time a primary pigeon delivers a message, it takes from one hour to three days of game time, and it cannot enter or exit special maps.
Players can buy intermediate and advanced pigeons in the game store, and occasionally there will be top pigeons auctioned in the auction house.
…
As he watched, the face of the last dragon descendant gradually began to change.
…Each character initially has five resurrection crystals, and each death will consume one. If the number of crystals is zero at the time of death, the character will disappear forever.
Players can re-establish their characters through the reincarnation system, and the cost of each reincarnation is 648 yuan/time.
Resurrection crystals cannot be dropped, traded, or discarded. They can be purchased in the in-game store at a unit price of 888 yuan, and each character is limited to one.
(Cannot be purchased during the internal test, and cannot be reincarnated)
…Under the above premise, "Mystical Era" reserves the right to interpret, change and add game rules. The interpretation, change and addition of rules will take effect from the time of publication. Players are requested to pay attention to these rules at all times.
If you object to any of the above terms, please exit the game immediately. If you choose to continue playing the game, it means that you have read and accepted all the above terms.
[I have read and accepted all the above terms]
[Exit the game]

?
Is this game too tricky?
Seeing the end, the last dragon's brows frowned slightly, and his expression changed.
After hesitating for a while, he still clicked the above option helplessly.
There is no way, the world's only fully immersive simulation game, monopolistic operation. The official really has the confidence of "Dear players, I am your father".
Of course, the family of the game planner is probably not going to be saved this time.
After thinking about it, the elf did not rush to close the panel, but clenched his right fist and punched his left forearm hard.
The arm felt like being pushed hard, but the pain was very weak, only to the extent of being flicked by a finger.
At the same time, the health value on the panel decreased by 1, becoming 119/120.
Is this pain dulling? What a miraculous technology...
"Big brother, are you here to escape? So pitiful."
Just as the last dragon was marveling at himself, suddenly, a soft voice sounded beside him.
