Chapter 1: Strategy – Start from Choosing an Identity
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Living beings from Earth, welcome to the Era of the Feudal Lord.”
“Next, I will begin adding regional modules for you to generate initial attributes…”
Hearing this ethereal voice, Zong Shen felt that he must be dreaming.
He was currently standing in a snow-white square room.
He was a little confused.
The previous moment, he was still on his way to work.
In the next moment, he had arrived at this damned place.
There was nothing around him, not even any markings.
However, when this voice was heard, a screen suddenly appeared in front of Zong Shen.
There was something displayed on it.
[Name: Zong Shen]
[Age: 21]
[Race: Earth / Human]
[Power: 5]
[Agility: 5]
[Intelligence: 5]
[Charm: 4]
[Remaining attribute points: 4]
[Remaining weapon level: 10]
[Detailed attributes: (Click to unfold)]
[Weapon level: (Click to unfold)]
[Click on “Begin” to enter the selection of identity and start your feudal lord career!]
Zong Shen stared blankly at the contents of the screen.
This was clearly a game!
“Survival of the Feudal Lord – could this be a game of the Gods?”
Zong Shen muttered to himself.
He had already realized that the environment he was in was real. Everything he saw and heard was not a dream.
Just as he was distracted.
Another notification sounded in his mind.
[The blessings of Gaia’s will were detected from you. You have earned the talent to conquer. Now adding the talent module to you.]
[Strategy module, loading complete]
“Gaia’s will?”
“Gaia? Isn’t that Earth?”
Zong Shen came back to his senses and felt that everything was even more confusing.
The screen ahead was still flashing.
Especially the ‘start’ at the bottom.
However, when he looked at the line of words at the bottom, he saw a line of golden remarks beside it.
He couldn’t help but look over.
“(Don’t waste time, quickly click and start. Please see: This is your first advice of strategy.)”
Zong Shen retracted his gaze and walked to the edge, touching the snow-white and firm barrier.
The screen also moved with him.
The four walls were impenetrable and there were no openings at all.
“Sigh, looks like I can only try this ‘start’.”
Zong Shen sighed and reluctantly accepted the truth.
He reached out and clicked on the word ‘start’ on the screen.
The entire screen lit up.
Buzz!
The surrounding space immediately began to distort before finally turning into complete darkness.
Just as Zong Shen was feeling a little bewildered.
The screen appeared again.
[Please choose your identity.]
[Gender: Male / Female]
(Male: Strength+1, Charm+1)
(Female: Agility+1, Intelligence+1)
The first choice to make was gender. A line of golden notification appeared below.
Zong Shen looked at the options and then at the small characters. He finally began to understand what the so-called strategy module was.
This golden notification completely revealed the result of the choices.
However, there was nothing to choose from.
Zong Shen’s mentality and physiognomy were both that of a man.
He decisively chose a man!
The screen changed.
The second option appeared.
[Your father is?]
(This is a very important choice!)
[A fallen knight who has lost his glory]
(Intelligence+1, Charm+1, Weapon Mastery+1, Attack Blow+1, Horsemanship+1, Coaching+1, Command Control+1, One-Handed Proficiency+10, Two-Handed Proficiency+10, Staff Proficiency+10, Reputation+100, Old Round Shield, Initial Money+100)
[Traveler traveling across the continent]
(Intelligence+2, Charm+1, Horsemanship+1, Command Control+1, Transaction+2, Item Management+1, Both Hands Proficiency+10, Reputation+20, Initial Money+250)
[An experienced veteran]
(Strength+1, Agility+1, Charm+1, Steel Bone+1, Strong Attack+1, Weapon Control+1, Coaching+1, One-Handed Proficiency+10, Two-Handed Proficiency+15, Long Staff Proficiency+20, Throwing Proficiency+10, Reputation+10, Dented Kite Shield, Initial Money+50)
[Poacher in the forest]
(Strength+1, Agility+2, Stake+1, Tracking+1, Guide+1, Hand Proficiency+10, Archer Proficiency+30, Initial Money+30)
[Nomads on the Prairie]
(Strength+1, Agility+1, Strong Throw+1, Horse Shooting+1, Emergency+1, Guide+1, Horsemanship+2, One-Handed Proficiency+10, Archer Proficiency+30, Throw+5, Flat Mounted Cavalry Shield, Initial Money+15, Reputation+10)
[Thief in the marketplace]
(Agility+3, Run+2, Throw+1, Item Management+1, Plunder+1, One-Handed Proficiency+20, Throw+20, Initial Money+25, Dagger Pack)
Zong Shen looked at these choices and the golden guide below and was a little confused.
He did not know much about these attributes, but with his many years of gaming experience, he could roughly guess.
Suddenly, he remembered something.
He asked in a probing manner.
“Any good recommendations?”
As expected, just as he finished speaking.
Another line of golden characters appeared before him.
(1, 3, 5 are not bad. The additional attributes are more suitable for early survival)
Seeing this guide, Zong Shen’s gaze swept across the recommendations again.
It was really an option that was comprehensive and had more attributes.
After some thought, the third option, [War veteran], seemed more suitable.
Hence, he chose this option!
The screen changed again, entering the third option.
[What had you once been in your youth?]
(It’s also very important!)
[Noble’s Servant]
(Charm+1, Strength+1, Strong Attack+1, Conviction+1, One-Handed Proficiency+15, Staff Proficiency+5)
[Hand Craftsman Apprentice]
(Intelligence+1, Strength+1, Engineering+1, Transaction+1)
[The naughty child on the streets]
(Agility+1, Intelligence+1, Investigation+1, Plunder+1, One-Handed Proficiency+15, Throw+5)
[Children on the Prairie]
(Strength+1, Agility+1, Horse Shooting+1, Strong Throw+1, Archer Proficiency+15, Reputation+5)
[Merchant’s Assistant]
(Intelligence+1, Charm+1, Item Management+1, Transaction+1)
This time, Zong Shen seemed to know what to do. He decisively chose the first [Noble’s Servant].
There was no other reason. The attributes of this choice overlapped with his previous choice.
Based on the principle of increasing his initial advantage, Zong Shen decided to try his best to choose a choice with the same attributes.
After entering this so-called “Feudal Lord’s Survival”, he could further study the secret of attributes.
Moreover, Zong Shen could roughly understand that not everyone could see the hidden attributes behind each choice.
The reason why he could see it was all because of the so-called [Gaia’s Blessing] that was activated previously!
Although the choices of identities were all the same, if he could coordinate it well, it would undoubtedly greatly increase his initial advantage!
Thinking up to this point, Zong Shen became more spirited.
