Chapter 1
-
It was sunny outside and people were coming and going.
The antique shop is located in a deserted alley in the downtown area. Occasionally, some people wearing heavy winter clothes walk by, but few notice the old antique shop.
The black-haired young man was a little tired after cleaning the antique shop, but he looked satisfied. He looked around the antique shop, as if he was very satisfied with his work. Then, he put on a cotton coat, sat behind the counter, and opened a popular science history book and read it slowly.
"The Ancient Era, the Mysterious Era, the Era of Gods, the Era of Demons, and the Era of Humanity."
Unexpectedly, thousands of years had passed since his death, and three eras had passed in the outside world.
"In the era I traveled through, the gods were fighting each other, and humans were the weakest race among them. I didn't expect that as time went by, humans became the masters of the continent."
"At least on the surface."
Xius nodded, his eyes thoughtful.
He is a time traveler from the Blue Planet, and his original name is not "Xius".
Xiusi is his name in the game. Back then, humans were too weak and could not defeat other races created by gods. The human magician who was the 18th generation of great sages united with several gods to make this world a game on Blue Star. He was one of the game beta testers at that time, and one of the seven saviors.
There were more than seven people participating in the internal test at that time, but only those who passed the "Brave" mission were awarded the title of Brave.
Thinking back, he felt a little ashamed after getting the title of hero. What a hero! I’m just a corporate slave. But maybe it was his chuunibha mentality that made him accept it.
He knew nothing when he entered the game, until he woke up one day and found that this world was real!
He was extremely shocked and unbelievable at the time, but after awakening, he found that he could not travel back. Helplessly, he had to stay in the alien world, trying to survive and upgrade, and accepted the name Xius and the identity of a brave man.
Among the seven heroes, he is undoubtedly the weakest one. He was just looking for fun, and he was a 3D modeler, so he chose the [Creator] channel. However, he didn't expect that the [Creator] would be very difficult to upgrade in the early stage, and the initial panel was extremely low, with an attack power of 1, a defense power of 1, and magic resistance and physical resistance. He was a complete loser in combat!
Oh no, it's even worse than a weakling. His combat power is at least 5.
If others need 10 resources to upgrade 1 level, he needs 100 resources, which is a huge consumption of resources! Moreover, there is no improvement after upgrading. Talent points can only be used on the occupation attributes of [Creator]. To become stronger, he cannot only make himself stronger, but also make the children he created stronger. Only when the children are upgraded can he upgrade.
"Hey, I had a lot of fun back then, but after traveling through time, I realized how hard it was."
Xiu Si recalled the past, feeling melancholy, but he was a man who took things as they came, and he gradually adapted to it. Hardships are only temporary, as long as you level up well, you can always live well, right? As a social animal and a game geek, his tolerance is relatively high.
However, he did not expect that when he had just reached level 10, he was adventuring in the abyss with other heroes. Suddenly, time and space became unstable, and the passage connecting the present world to the abyss almost collapsed. He did not know whether the others had returned safely, and when he came to his senses, he found that he was the only one left.
"I was really hopeless at that time. I was a level 10 [Creation Apprentice], with attack and defense stats of only 10. I couldn't defeat any abyss monster. Wasn't it certain that I would die?"
When Hughes recalled those years, he felt even more melancholy.
But he still survived. Should we say it was because of his strong will to survive or because of good luck?
"Um……"
Xiu Dun paused, frowned slightly, and said in a complicated tone: "It seems that he didn't survive completely."
Yes, he died after all. An accident happened when he was about to reach level 19. Theoretically, he should have died. His health bar was reduced to zero and his system panel was shattered. However, he did not expect that—
"I'm actually resurrected."
Hughes murmured, puzzled.
Being alive is certainly something to be happy about, but he just doesn't quite understand why.
"Let's not talk about these for now."
Xius stopped turning the pages of the book, his expression was solemn, and his body was trembling slightly.
He is dead, but what about his good children?
When he was surviving in the abyss, he used his professional skill [Creation] to shape many good cubs. But he died suddenly, leaving behind his weak and pitiful good cubs. How could they survive in a place like the abyss?
Zeus opened the system panel, looked at the gray creation atlas column, and fell into silence for a long time.
A few days ago, he walked out of the cemetery and knew nothing about the world thousands of years later. The game system had not been repaired yet, and he had no idea about the situation of the good kids.
But he was so worried!
Fortunately, as soon as he came out, he met the enthusiastic church priest Xilin.
Priest Xilin is also a human adventurer who usually ventures into various ancient sites. Seeing that he was helpless and "losing his memory" in the cemetery, he generously provided him with temporary accommodation and work. He was very grateful and stayed in the antique shop during the day to help run the store.
Priest Xilin is an elegant gentleman, about 40 or 50 years old, with some gray hair. He seems to hold an important position in the church and is extremely busy even when he is not adventuring.
Priest Xilin said at the time: "It is common for people to fall into the abyss and lose all their memories when they reappear in the human world. Your situation is not unusual. I will report it to the church. If the process goes smoothly, you will receive a relief fund."
Xius didn't expect that his amnesia would be cured so quickly.
Xius is a good young man in Blue Star. He is a Buddhist and emotionally stable person. He will not be irritable as long as he does not work overtime all night. He believes that things will work out when the time comes. His colleagues say that he is a good person, like a central air conditioner. Although he thinks he is okay, he is just a bit lazy and not very sociable. He treats people equally just because he does not want to spend too much time on socializing. It is almost the same with the other six heroes.
He didn't want to lie to Priest Xilin, but his situation was difficult to explain. Fortunately, Priest Xilin did not doubt him.
"In any case, the first thing to do now is to understand the situation of this era and wait for the game system to restart."
Zeus continued to turn the pages, reading the human history of the Age of the Gods.
What happened to the other six heroes after he fell into the abyss?
And just at this moment, the door was pushed open.
The man looked exhausted, wearing a heavy military coat, with white hair mixed with snow, and an old face, but his eyes were bright and he stared at him as soon as he came in.
Hughes was stunned for a moment and looked at the old man.
The old man seemed surprised that the person at the front desk had changed. He walked in and asked, "Who are you...?"
"Hello, I'm Isius."
Xius raised his head and showed a bright and harmless smile, "Priest Xilin asked me to help look after the store here."
The old man's temperament shows that he is a member of the Ossian Empire military.
When Zeus traveled through time, the world's productivity level was still similar to that of the Middle Ages. After his death, the world had obviously developed. It had not yet reached the electrical age, but all kinds of modern daily necessities would soon be available.
This is considered a great thing. God knows how hard it was for him to adapt to life in a different world. If it weren't for his good children, he would have almost collapsed as a lonely and helpless person.
Ah, when he thought of this, the images of his cubs couldn't help but pop up in Hughes' mind.
At this time, the old man introduced himself: "I am Ronald, passing by, and wanted to look for Priest Xilin, but it seems he is not here."
Ronaldo didn't have much thought about the black-haired young man in front of him. He just thought he had a handsome appearance, with a rare black hair and black eyes.
What a pity...
Ronaldo narrowed his eyes and could not sense any trace of magic from the other person, so he knew that the other person was just an ordinary person.
In this era, it is impossible to move forward without magic power. It is not easy for ordinary people without any magic power to survive.
Especially with the recent fluctuations in the subspace, monsters from the spirit world have been breaking into the human world from time to time. Although the imperial city has stepped up its guard and several great magicians are in charge of control, there are still some fish that slip through the net.
The monsters that can escape from the subspace are basically above level 30, which means that if the young man in front of him were unlucky enough to encounter one, he would probably die.
And he was an imperial soldier who existed to protect these ordinary people. Thinking of this, Ronal's eyes were deep and his aura was a little fierce.
Ronal looked up, looked into the young man's eyes, and said seriously, "Since Priest Xilin is not here, please tell him something."
"What?"
Hughes was happy to oblige, but added: "I don't know when Mr. Shilling will be back."
Ronal nodded. "Just tell Priest Xilin that he needs to come and crack that thing himself."
Xius nodded and was about to say yes.
Ronaldo suddenly trembled all over, his face turned pale and ugly, as if something had happened, and he immediately looked down at his right hand.
I saw extremely ominous black particles surging on the palm.
The black particles surged like a living monster, devouring Ronaldo.
Ronaldo frowned, not knowing that the contracted demon became uneasy at this time.
Back then, the demons from the abyss were born in droves, disrupting the Age of Gods and ushering in the Age of Demons.
Later, for some unknown reason, the demons of the abyss abandoned the real world and ran to the subspace collectively, as if they were frantically searching for something.
Humans seized the opportunity to rise. Under the guidance of some mysterious forces, some powerful humans strengthened their own strength by making contracts with the abyss demons. After that, after thousands of years of war, the human kingdom finally established the dominant position of humans and ushered in the human era.
Since then, the Abyss Demons have had close ties with the armies of various human countries. The more powerful the Abyss Demons in the alliance, the stronger the military strength.
But even so, humans cannot sit back and relax. They must always be vigilant against invasions from the warp and worry that their allies, the demons of the abyss, will abandon them, like now.
Ronaldo made a pact with the devil when he was nine years old, and his contracted devil seemed to be able to transcend his control and emerge from the abyss into the world!
Ronaldo immediately concentrated his mind and activated his magic power. He wanted to control his contracted demon, because there was an ordinary person here!
I saw that his heavy military coat was suddenly blown up by the strong wind, and the magic power in the air was visible to the naked eye. He wanted to seal his out-of-control right hand on the spot.
At the same time, the black particles were about to take shape, revealing the shape of a demon!
Ronaldo thought to himself, this is terrible.
It was also at this moment that the young man in front of him did not know how to dodge. He looked down at the pure black creature crawling out of his body and smiled again.
Ronaldo paused on the spot and almost doubted his own eyes. This young man actually smiled at the abyss demon?
However, the most shocking thing is——
The young man raised his head, rubbed the head of the pure black creature, and said with a smile: "Is it Mr. Ronald's pet?"
Pet, pet? You actually said that the Abyss Demon is a pet? !
Ronaldo's eyes widened as if he was struck by lightning.
As a general of the Empire, nicknamed the Killing Machine, he had experienced countless battlefields and witnessed many horrors, but he had never seen such a scene!
What's up with this young man?!
