After preparing for transmigration, Xia Yuan, a top player of storyline mages in his previous life, transmigrated into an NPC, and was even the fourth son of the newly born Duke of the Empire!
<...Chapter 20 The first thing to do when entering the holographic virtual game
After selecting the race, the detail adjustment options appeared on the panel.
Appearance adjustment? All up! 100% optimization! What? Only 20% at most? Then max it out! After a series of extremely skilled operations, Jiang Heng finally looked at the elf-like young man with a face that looked like a filter with satisfaction, and then felt a little regretful.
What's the first thing he did when he entered the holographic virtual game? That's right, create a female character! But after searching through all the options, he didn't see any gender options.
Jiang Heng swore that after he went offline, he would report this serious, stupid, pathetic, unforgivable and vicious bug to the authorities!
After the character is created, the available birthplaces appear on the panel: 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 a character name input box and a dice, with two lines of notes below.
'The character name is the name that the NPC in the game calls the player. It can be changed in the game after registration.'
'※Please note that a character name that is too special may attract the attention and disgust of NPCs, so it is recommended to register randomly.'
Attention and disgust? Are NPCs that smart? Jiang Heng was stunned. As a professional player, he tried new things. He withdrew his hand that was originally intended to register randomly and entered a character name instead:
Laboratory Dragonborn
The landing area was selected as the Gloria Empire. After clicking confirm, the crystal panel turned into light spots and floated away.
Everything in front of me began to blur, and a pleasant prompt sound finally came.
"Thank you for playing and experiencing "Mysterious Era". I wish you a happy life~~~"
When his vision returned to normal, Jiang Heng was standing beside a flat white stone road, wearing a gray linen civilian outfit with a hood.
Exquisite brick and stone structures stretch from both sides of the road into the distance, with verdant vines climbing around the antique lattice windows.
The light blue and magenta tiled roof sparkled, and the black iron weather vane rotated gently on the roof.
The sky is so blue and pure, with a few lazy clouds dotted in it, so white that it is dazzling.
The nobles' four-wheeled carriages drove slowly in the middle of the road, and armored professionals walked on both sides of the road. From time to time, vendors wandered among the crowd, selling snacks and small handmade goods.
The towering city wall stands a little further away, its mottled grey rock walls covered with moss.
The guards were patrolling below the city wall. The morning sunlight was blocked by the wall, casting a huge shadow that enveloped Jiang Heng.
The noise of the crowd echoed in my ears, and the air carried the unique atmosphere of a medieval city.
Looking at everything around him in amazement, Jiang Heng involuntarily walked to the wall of a building nearby, reached out and touched the slightly rough brick wall, and even tried to add some roughness.
The fingertips felt cold and rough, just like touching real stone.
If you get close, you can even smell the unique astringent smell produced by the stone surface being exposed to the sun.
"Oh my God...If I hadn't known this beforehand, I would have even thought it was all true!"
A civilian passing by accidentally heard these words and couldn't help but look at the elf as if he was a fool.
The Last Dragonborn, immersed in amazement, did not notice this little episode. He raised his hand to call out the panel, and a crystal-like panel appeared in front of him. The style was unexpectedly in line with the surrounding medieval environment.
In fact, the panel in the game is completely controlled by the mind. The last dragon has played many VR online games and got used to manual operation. ——Date until the end of the internal test: 23:59 on the 14th [real time] Internal test experience reward: 100 times

…
In addition to various properties, the mailbox column in the lower right corner of the panel suddenly flashed, and an email popped up automatically.
New news? The last dragonborn clicked on it curiously and found that it was the game instructions and game guide sent by the official to new players.
Notice to players of "Mysterious Era": Dear players, thank you for purchasing and registering this game.
...This game is a 98.25% realistic immersive game. The pain sensation can be adjusted between 1% and 10%, with an upper limit of 10% ...Please note that due to the high degree of simulation, the NPCs in the game have the same intelligence and emotions as real people. Please do not let your guard down against any NPC!
...In order to ensure authenticity, the communication system in the game adopts the form of carrier pigeons, and all new players can get a primary carrier pigeon for free.
Both the carrier pigeon and the system panel are indestructible and cannot be seen by NPCs. Players can input text using the keyboard or write letters directly.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Depending on the distance between the sender and the recipient, it takes from one hour to three days of game time for a primary carrier pigeon to deliver a message, and it cannot enter or exit special maps.
Players can purchase intermediate and advanced pigeons in the game store, and top-level pigeons will occasionally be auctioned in the auction house.
…
As he watched, the Last Dragonborn's expression gradually began to change.
...Each character initially has five resurrection crystals, and one will be consumed each time they die. If the number of crystals is zero at the time of death, the character will disappear permanently.
Players can re-establish their characters through the reincarnation system, with each reincarnation costing 648 yuan.
The resurrection crystal cannot be dropped, traded, or discarded, but can be purchased from the in-game store at a price of 888 yuan. Each character is limited to one.
(Cannot be purchased or reincarnated during the internal test)
...Under the above premise, "Mysterious 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 game】 —— ?
Is this game too lame?
After reading to the end, the Last Dragonborn’s brows slightly frowned, and his expression changed constantly.
After hesitating for a while, he reluctantly clicked the option above.
There is no other way. The world's only fully immersive simulation game is operated in a monopoly manner. The official really has the confidence of "Dear players, I am your father".
Of course, the game planner’s family probably can’t be saved this time.
After thinking about it, the elf did not rush to close the panel, but clenched his right fist and punched hard on his left forearm.
My arm felt like someone had pushed it hard, but the pain was mild, only similar to being flicked by a finger.
At the same time, the health value on the panel decreased by 1, becoming 119/120.
Is this pain desensitization? What a magical technology...
"Brother, are you here to escape? You are so pitiful."
Just as the last dragon was marveling at himself, suddenly, a soft voice sounded beside him.
