Conquer the game world

Chapter 2 The Beginning of the Tragedy

"it hurts……"

He didn't know how much time had passed, only that it was still a sunny afternoon, when Ye Feng slowly woke up.

"That's strange, I was just browsing the internet, and now I can't log into the game..."

"..."

Ye Feng, who was still thinking about the game when he woke up, found himself in a grassland after he regained his senses. He was startled and looked around. He knew something big was wrong. He was very familiar with this place. Wasn't this the grassland outside the starting village of "General God" that he had been playing for two years?

"Damn it, this is ridiculous!" Ye Feng couldn't believe his eyes. Could he have transmigrated? Although he didn't want to believe it, looking at his current situation and the clothes he was wearing when he created the character, it was clear that this was the game character he had just created.

"Damn it, if you're going to wear something, at least make me look cool. What's the point of this guy wearing this tattered outfit?"

Although Ye Feng had considered whether this was a prank, he thought it was unrealistic and pointless to carry out such a large-scale prank, so he rejected the idea.

As a hardcore gamer and avid gamer, Ye Feng also had a habit of reading novels. He was quite familiar with the plot of time-travel novels. Although he couldn't accept it at first, his excellent analytical skills and mental fortitude as a gaming master quickly calmed him down. No matter what, there was no use in thinking about it now.

"Wait a minute, what the heck? I haven't even chosen a class yet! How am I supposed to play like this...?"

As evening fell, Ye Feng, who had been wandering around the newbie village all afternoon, stood at the entrance of the village. Ye Feng's face was as ugly as could be. After this half-day of wandering, Ye Feng was certain that this was definitely not someone else's doing; he had truly transmigrated.

That's right, Ye Feng is currently in the very familiar starting village of the game "General God".

After Ye Feng finished exploring the newbie village, a notification suddenly appeared in his mind, which was something like thanking him for his bravery in saving the world. Ye Feng didn't even want to complain about these boring polite words. Who would want that?

Instead, after receiving the prompt, Ye Feng discovered a string of data in his mind. This string of data was very strange, and he didn't know where it came from. Whenever Ye Feng thought about something, his thoughts would enter into it.

Here, Ye Feng can clearly see a bunch of data and attributes.

Name: Ye Feng Level: 1 Experience: 0/100
There are also basic attributes such as attack power and health.

There was another package, which was completely empty, and the amount of money displayed inside was 0.

There are still some features that need to be unlocked, which will probably be available later. Upgrading or completing certain character upgrades to unlock new features and characteristics is a very basic feature of this game.

Ye Feng had a vague feeling that he might have become a game character as soon as he woke up. So when he discovered this fact, he wasn't too surprised.

As the god of games, Ye Feng's ability to not only react with lightning speed but also his meticulous analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of both sides is a key reason for his legendary status.

This time, the observant Ye Feng noticed many differences from the original game. First of all, he could become a game character, which is something that has been written in many novels. For example, in some games, wearing a helmet allows you to enter the game world in an immersive way.

Okay, let's put aside the fact that such high-tech things didn't exist in my memories before I traveled through time. Even if they did, I should have seen other players, or if I'm playing a game while wearing a helmet, there should be an exit option.

Furthermore, in any game, there should at least be an NPC who stands still and accepts quests to facilitate the game's progression. Here, let alone accepting quests, there isn't a single person standing still waiting for you to accept a quest.

After comprehensive analysis, Ye Feng confirmed one thing: he might have really transmigrated into the game world as data. In other words, apart from himself, the other characters in this game were living, breathing people in this world.

Looking back now, that "save the world" option that appeared at the beginning seems so abnormal. Could it be that I was transported to another world for that reason?
If that's the case, then what does saving the world mean? It can't be that I'm saving the world looking like this.

"By the way, isn't the new expansion 'Salvation'? No way, you need to be at the top level to challenge it? At least give me a top-level account." In the storyline of the new expansion "Salvation" for "God of War," the protagonist single-handedly quells the internal strife on this continent, bringing peace back to the world.

Looking at himself now, Ye Feng's face was extremely grim. Forget about saving the world, Ye Feng was now facing difficulties he would never have even considered in normal times.

It was already evening, and after wandering around, Ye Feng discovered that there were no NPCs in the game who were in charge of issuing quests. No quests to do meant that Ye Feng had no quest rewards to claim.

Furthermore, this is a realistic society, and it's impossible to have an endless supply of pheasants at the village entrance like in games, which you can sell for money, eat yourself, or keep to replenish your health.

It's obvious that in the real world, something this valuable wouldn't just be left unattended at the entrance of a village.

So Ye Feng faced his biggest problem yet: it was getting dark, and he couldn't just quit the game and go to sleep. Where would he stay tonight? Forget about finding a place to stay; he was penniless after his rebirth, and hadn't eaten anything since he transmigrated. He had no choice; how could he buy food without money?

"What a rip-off of a game! There are no beginner monsters at the village entrance, no quest rewards, and not even a place to stay," Ye Feng complained, his face grim.

"You've arrived... I've been waiting for you for a long time." At this moment, a burly man walked over from the entrance of the village where Ye Feng was located.

"Old Wang, you're back..."

This man was Old Wang, the only blacksmith in the village. Ye Feng had been standing at the village entrance for so long just to wait for Old Wang's return.

When Ye Feng discovered the game's deceptive design, he didn't get discouraged or give up; instead, it fueled his strong motivation to play the game.

"Since there's nowhere to stay, the only option is to work in the village to earn extra money." After a moment's thought, Ye Feng had a plan in mind.

As for why he chose Lao Wang, it was mainly because Lao Wang was the only blacksmith in the village. Ye Feng thought that Lao Wang might be able to lay a foundation for his weapon-making skills. After all, it's a game, and who knows when he might need to make weapons himself. It's more practical than working as a waiter in a restaurant.

Knowing that Old Wang in the village had been looking for a helper, Ye Feng had only heard from a neighbor today that Old Wang had gone to the city to buy things, so he had been waiting at the village entrance.

After expressing his sincerity and willingness, Lao Wang accepted Ye Feng as his partner, and everything proceeded smoothly.

Following Old Wang, Ye Feng arrived at the blacksmith shop. The accommodations were naturally not very good; it was just a small room in the attic upstairs. The food was also just simple fare. Ye Feng was already starving, so he didn't complain and ate several large bowls. It was getting late, so Ye Feng rested after dinner.

Lying on the bed, Ye Feng couldn't fall asleep for a while. Even with his strong heart, Ye Feng found it hard to accept the sudden transmigration. However, Ye Feng couldn't sleep more because of his excitement. For a god of games, the responsibility of saving the world gave him enough motivation.

After carefully analyzing the series of unexpected events that occurred today, Ye Feng came to some conclusions of his own.

Firstly, I have indeed entered the game world, and there is no way to go back, at least for now. Currently, the only guess is that the only way back is to complete the mission of saving the world.

Secondly, judging from the lack of training monsters at the entrance of the beginner village, leveling up in this world is much more difficult than in the game world. At least a whole day has passed and Ye Feng's experience points have not increased at all. It seems that it is impossible to level up by simply idling.

The third and very important point is that although this is a game world, I have traveled here from another time. What will happen if I die? Will I be resurrected and start the game again, or will I just disappear forever?
Shaking his head, Ye Feng tried to forget the third terrifying conjecture.

Given the current situation, he could only take it one step at a time. Since he didn't know what would happen after he died, he couldn't let himself die here. After making up his mind, Ye Feng became cautious about his life and quickly got up to lock the door of the room that he hadn't locked before.

Regarding the first guess, since he doesn't know how to get back now, he can only improve himself and work towards that goal. The biggest problem Ye Feng is facing now is how to increase his experience points. In most games, experience points are gained by fighting monsters, but at least Ye Feng hasn't found a place where he can gain experience points by fighting monsters.

Sigh, looks like I'll have to go somewhere farther away and see if there are any other places to level up. Lost in thought, Ye Feng gradually fell asleep, and his first day in this game world passed just like that...
