The buff is permanent, and you start the game with a fountain of water.

"Ding! Does citizen Huan Cheng wish to log in to the Divine Realm?"

Hearing the pleasant system voice, Huan Cheng suppressed his excitement and immediately selected "yes".

Not long ago, the first 100% realistic virtual reality game, "God Realm", was released.

With official endorsements from various countries, and even before the official launch, a barrage of "GG" (game name) messages swept the globe.

Even more unbelievable is that this groundbreaking game, which claims to change the world and restart lives, only costs 1000 Chinese coins to log in to the helmet.

These days, a mobile phone costs several thousand yuan, so a gaming helmet that costs a thousand yuan is practically free.

Having just lost his job, Huan Cheng decisively decided to buy it.

"Ding, retrieving player information, verifying player identity, verification successful."

"Login successful!"

Welcome to the world of gods!

After a few notification sounds, Huan Cheng's vision suddenly went black, and when he opened his eyes again, he found himself in a magnificent and solemn hall.

Before Huan Cheng could even take in his surroundings, system notifications appeared one after another.

"Creating a character for the player, please enter the character ID."

"Riding the wind".

"Ding, ID verification passed. Please select your initial class. This selection will not affect your official class selection."

The next moment, two virtual figures appeared in front of Huan Cheng.

The figure on the left is clad in armor and wielding a sword, while the figure on the right is draped in robes and holding a staff, representing the two basic classes in the divine realm: the physical and magical classes, respectively.

The Divine Realm is divided into six basic factions: Warrior, Archer, Assassin, Mage, Priest, and Summoner.

The first three belong to the physics department, and the last three belong to the law department.

Huan Cheng glanced enviously at the dashing and handsome mage's appearance, then decisively chose the physics major.

The mage is strong and handsome, but unfortunately he's not cut out for it and can't handle the controls, so he can only choose to be a warrior and go all out.

"Ding, awakening your talent, please wait."

Upon hearing this, Huan Cheng couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

According to information previously released by the official God Realm team, each player will awaken a talent that accompanies them throughout their life upon entering the game.

Talent effects are varied, and good talents are crucial for character growth.

"Ding! Congratulations to player Chengfeng for awakening the unique exclusive talent [Eternal Imprint]."

"Eternal imprint?"

Huan Cheng was slightly taken aback. Just as he was about to check the talent effects, he heard the system notification: "Character generation complete. You have been randomly assigned to beginner village number 23333. We wish you a pleasant gaming experience!"

As the system notification sound faded, Huan Cheng felt a sudden darkness before his eyes, accompanied by a slight feeling of weightlessness, and disappeared from the spot.

Before I even opened my eyes, I was greeted by a cacophony of noise.

"Holy crap, the official claim wasn't an exaggeration, it's 100% realistic!!"

"The feel, the texture, even the stench—it's exactly the same as in the real world!"

"Wait, who the hell farted? It stinks!!"

"This talent can reduce casting time by 10%. Anyone want to team up with a warrior and an archer?"

"Hey? Bro, what are you doing? Hurry up and pull your pants up!"

"Hey bro, you smell amazing!"

…………

Huan Cheng opened his eyes. There were crowds of people around him, and flashes of white light appeared from time to time, which were newly logged-in players.

He stared wide-eyed at his surroundings, his shock no less than that of the other players.

After a while, he finally came to his senses and tried to check his personal attributes.

Name: Chengfeng

Level: 1 (Experience: 0/120)

Occupation: Not changed jobs

Talent: Eternal Imprint

Health Points: 100 (Constitution * 20)

Mana: 25 (Spirit * 5)

Physical Attack: 15 + 1 (Strength * 3)

Spell Power: 6 (Intelligence * 1.2)

Physical Defense: 7+1 (Constitution * 1 + Agility * 0.5)

Spell Defense: 7 (Constitution * 1 + Spirit * 0.5)

Movement Speed: 8 (Maximum movement distance per second. Physical classes have an initial movement speed of 8, and magical classes have an initial movement speed of 7. Every 100 points of Agility increases movement speed by 1 point.)

Strength: 5 (related to physical attack)

Constitution: 5 (related to maximum health, health regeneration, physical and magical defense, and resistance to abnormal statuses such as poison, paralysis, and petrification)

Agility: 5 (related to physical defense, attack speed, and movement speed)

Spirit: 5 (related to maximum mana, spell defense, mana regeneration, and resistance to abnormal statuses such as stun and confusion)

Intelligence: 5 (related to spell power and casting speed)

Skills: Insight, Heavy Strike

Equipment: Beginner wooden sword, beginner cloth armor

Regardless of whether it's a magic or physical class, the initial attributes are the same. The difference lies in the fact that physical classes have a higher physical attack growth coefficient, while magic classes focus on spell power.

Huan Cheng already knew this basic information; what he cared about more was his own talent.

【Eternal Imprint】: A unique, exclusive talent. While enjoying a buff, the buff effect can be permanently solidified through soul imprinting. Current imprint count: 0/1.

"What the hell!"

After reading the talent description, Huan Cheng rubbed his eyes and almost cried out in surprise after confirming that he hadn't misread it.

He wasn't a gaming novice; he clearly understood what a permanent buff meant.

"If we get a high-ranking priest to give us a handjob, wouldn't we be able to take off from the spot?"

Suppressing his excitement, Huan Cheng continued reading.

There are two initial skills: one is the Detection skill, which is standard for all players, and the other is the basic attack skill, which is standard for physical classes.

[Scouting]: A special skill that consumes 1 mana point and allows you to view basic information about monsters that are no more than 5 levels higher than your own.

【Heavy Strike】: F-rank skill, consumes 2 mana, after a short charge-up, deals physical attack + 10 damage to a single target, no cooldown.

In the Divine Realm, all skills are ranked from lowest to highest as follows: F, E, D, C, B, A, S, SS, and SSS.

As the lowest-ranking F skill, Heavy Strike's only advantage is that it has no cooldown; otherwise, it's not worth mentioning.

The two beginner equipment pieces provide 1 point of physical attack and 1 point of physical defense respectively, which is better than nothing.

"The most important thing right now is to level up to 10 as soon as possible, then go to the main city and find a priest for a good time!"

Huan Cheng closed the system panel and pondered silently.

According to the official information, you can only change jobs by entering the main city, and only the main city has priests.

"Damn, this game is such a rip-off! I actually got killed by a level 1 noob!"

Just as Huan Cheng was pondering how to upgrade, he suddenly heard curses coming from behind him.

Huan Cheng looked in the direction of the sound and saw a grumpy old man walking out of the resurrection fountain, cursing and swearing, his health bar recovering at an extremely fast pace.

"Huh?!"

Looking at his irritable older brother, Huan Cheng had a sudden inspiration and immediately took out his weapon and stabbed himself.

"Damn it, what are you doing? You don't do that kind of 'fake accident' stuff in games!"

The hot-tempered man was startled and backed away repeatedly.

Huan Cheng ignored him and swiftly struck himself several more times, reducing his health to below 50 points.

Huan Cheng then sheathed his beginner's sword, took a deep breath, and stepped into the resurrection fountain.

"Ding! The Resurrection Spring grants you the [Endless Resurrection] effect, which restores 10% health and 5% mana every 0.5 seconds. The effect ends two seconds after you leave the spring."

"Ding! You are currently under a buff. Do you wish to activate the talent [Eternal Imprint] to permanently imprint this buff?"

"It's done?!"

Huan Cheng was slightly taken aback, but immediately chose to inscribe and solidify the inscription.

"Ding! Once solidified, it cannot be changed. Confirm solidification?!"

"Cannot be changed?"

Huan Cheng hesitated for a moment, then decisively chose to confirm.

"Ding, talent activated successfully, you have inscribed [Endless Rejuvenation]."

Taking a deep breath, Huan Cheng opened the system panel with trembling hands:

Name: Chengfeng

Level: 1 (Experience: 0/120)

Occupation: Not changed jobs

Talent: Eternal Imprint (Already inscribed with [Endless Rebirth])

Health: 100

Mana: 50

Huan Cheng focused his attention on the [Eternal Seal], and detailed information followed.

【Eternal Imprint】: A unique, exclusive talent. While enjoying a buff, the buff effect can be permanently solidified through soul imprinting. Current imprint count: 1/1.

Imprint effect: Restores 10% of maximum health and 5% of maximum mana every 0.5 seconds.

"Whoosh, take off! From now on, please call me Huan Yi, the Bearer of Spring Water!"
