"This cheat is way too powerful!"
Ding Ling was overjoyed.
If Myth Game had not become so popular throughout the world,
with his professional skills now,
what could he not make money doing?
He would never have to work as a miserable code monkey again.
He decisively quit his job.
He completely ignored the strange looks from his colleagues and boss, taking his entire life savings along with the money he had just received from resigning to buy the game helmet.
"I hope I can come into contact with more martial arts in the game world!"
"Other people can bring their strength back from the game into the real world. There's no reason I can't do it, right?"
"If I can learn martial arts in the game and instantly max them out, wouldn't I become outrageously powerful in reality?"
Ding Ling's face was full of longing!
During the more than two days he spent in the real world, he had practically flipped through all the 'skill' books in every library.
He had of course also read some comics, novels, and mythology books, but after discovering that they were useless, he stopped reading them and focused instead on all kinds of 'skill' books.
From basic skills such as the various foreign languages of Blue Star, architecture, physics, and chemistry;
to medical skills such as medicine, herb identification, acupuncture, and Western medicine;
then to skills that improved physical fitness, such as bodybuilding, sword dancing, boxing, palm techniques, and movement techniques;
it could be said
that in just a few short days,
Ding Ling had already become an almost omnipotent master!
"This feels amazing."
Ding Ling felt as though he had been dreaming these past few days.
In his previous life, he often read novels and saw all kinds of cheats, golden fingers, and systems. He had also countless times dreamed of the day he would obtain one, but even after transmigrating, no matter how many times he called out 'old grandpa' and 'system' day and night, it had been useless! He was still ordinary.
It was only the sudden awakening of the 'Library' a few days ago
that allowed him to see hope.
It made him feel even more as if he had fallen into a dream.
"I really feel like I can do anything now."
All kinds of skills were 'floating' through Ding Ling's mind!
He felt that his physical fitness had also improved considerably.
The fact that his bodybuilding principles, martial arts routines, running techniques, swimming techniques, and so on had instantly reached the max level had tempered his muscles, internal organs, and more.
It could be said
that Ding Ling's physical fitness had now more than doubled compared to his former self.
He had even tried carrying a hundred-jin sack of rice from his home, effortlessly doing several standard squats while holding it, as well as several overhead lifts!
That had absolutely been impossible before!
"He really has become stronger."
Ding Ling clenched his fists, his eyes flashing brilliantly.
"The Library has endless shelves filled with books. Right now, only a few shelves are piled high with various basic books. It's not enough."
"If I fill all the shelves in the Library with various skill books, what will happen?"
Just thinking about it made Ding Ling unable to contain his excitement.
But that was impossible in the real world.
Because the knowledge Ding Ling could come into contact with at his current level in the real world was limited to what could be found in libraries, on the internet, and in similar places.
He might have to wait until his status rose before he could come into contact with some truly essential knowledge.
But what he wanted most urgently now was to try out the things in the game and see whether he could learn them instantly and max them out.
"Let's begin."
Following the instructions in the manual, Ding Ling put on the helmet, lay down on the bed, and slowly closed his eyes.
The next second,
everything before his eyes went black.
Ding Ling felt as if his soul and consciousness had been forcibly dragged through and shattered a layer of separation, flying toward a world in another dimension.
He felt dizzy.
But it was not long before
his eyes lit up, and he found that he had arrived in a new place.
He quickly looked around.
This appeared to be an extraordinarily vast plaza.
The plaza was densely packed with people.
A halo of light appeared beneath every person's feet. Some were setting up stalls to sell items, some were loudly discussing matters, while others stared blankly at the empty space before them, muttering as if they were saying something.
Ding Ling was slightly surprised. He had not expected to arrive in a place like this.
But soon,
a notification panel also appeared before his eyes.
Character: Ding Ling Age: 23 Race: Human Faction: None Class: None Level: None Attributes: Bone Structure 1 (ordinary people have 1 point), Wisdom 2, Strength 2 (ordinary people have 1), Agility 2, Constitution 2, Defense 2, Charisma 2 Weapon: None Skills: Acupuncture (Level 10), Swimming (Level 10), Bodybuilding (Level 10), Elementary Psychology (Level 10), Bear Country Language (Level 10), North Country Language (Level 10), Southern Cuisine (Level 10), Northern Cuisine (Level 10), Carving (Level 10), Watercolor Painting (Level 10), Sketching (Level 10), Calligraphy (Level 10), Racing (Level 10)... There were several hundred skills in total. Just the painting category alone listed seven or eight types, including watercolor painting, comic drawing, traditional Chinese painting, and more. Overall Evaluation: An All-Rounder! A Superhuman Among New Players! In view of player Ding Ling's outstanding performance, he currently ranks first on the overall player rankings. Click to view the rankings...
When Ding Ling saw this, he could not help but feel slightly startled.
He had only just logged into the game and had not even figured out the situation yet, but he had already taken first place?
Out of curiosity, he tapped the three words 'rankings' in the air.
The next moment,
various rankings appeared.
The overall rankings were listed first.
His name was bolded and highlighted in red, occupying first place.
First Place: Ding Ling. New Player. Current World: None. Worlds Cleared: None.
At almost the same time,
the entire plaza erupted:
"Everyone, look! The overall rankings have refreshed! Someone named Ding Ling suddenly appeared in first place. My god, he's actually a new player?!"
"Incredible! How did he do it?! You have to know that even the veteran beta tester Kong Tianhua has been playing this game for a month. He's incredibly fierce in the game, with over a thousand jin of strength, and has even become a military general! Ding Ling's overall strength is actually greater than Kong Tianhua's!!"
"What the hell? Ding Ling isn't on any of the other rankings. How did he get onto the overall rankings?! Does he have some especially powerful comprehensive skill?!"
The discussion was especially loud.
Ding Ling heard everything clearly. He did not join the others in discussing it and continued reading the game manual.
He had not forgotten the purpose of coming here.
After reading for a long while,
Ding Ling finally understood it all and thought:
This Myth Game actually contains countless worlds. There are worlds from various periods, such as the Three Kingdoms, Sui Dynasty, Qin Dynasty, and Ming Dynasty; martial arts worlds such as The Return of the Condor Heroes, Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils, The Smiling, Proud Wanderer, Wind and Cloud, and Little Li Flying Dagger; as well as xianxia worlds such as Journey to the West, Investiture of the Gods, Legend of the White Snake, and Legend of Nezha. There are also higher-level Xuanhuan and Primordial Worlds, along with the highest-level Chaos World, and so on.
What players have to do is continuously improve themselves and clear and conquer one world after another, until they have completely conquered them.
Ding Ling was thoughtful.
Why did this game contain so many familiar worlds from movies and television?
This world was extremely similar to his previous life.
The literary and artistic works that should exist were all here as well.
That was why Ding Ling had never had the chance to become a plagiarist and make money. As for whether this game world had been developed by Blue Star itself,
Ding Ling could not be certain.
If the martial arts and abilities from the game can really be brought back into the real world, then the waters of Blue Star are far too deep!
