"Lin Feng, cough cough... starting today, cough cough..., you are the new Tribe Leader of the Tribe! From now on, the Tribe is in your hands!"

"I hope you can lead those few children and survive tenaciously. If you really can't survive, go seek refuge with the Baimu Tribe."

The old Tribe Leader coughed violently, and after delivering his last words, he breathed his last.

Lin Feng looked at the old Tribe Leader's corpse, then at the five little ones beside him, their eyes brimming with tears as they looked at him expectantly, and let out a long sigh.

He had transmigrated to this world called the Barbaric Continent three years ago.

The Barbaric Continent was a world where the Myriad Races stood tall, and the law of the jungle prevailed. The Human Race, lacking any powerful racial talents, was at the very bottom of this world.

The scattered Human Race across the continent either became vassals or slaves to powerful races, surviving under their protection, or they hid in desolate corners, barely clinging to life.

Lin Feng was lucky; he didn't transmigrate into the territory of any powerful race. Instead, he arrived on an island in the East Sea Region of the Barbaric Continent.

It was a giant island.

According to the old Tribe Leader, the island's name was Fangzhang Island.

The Tribe was located in the eastern part of Fangzhang Island. Although life had been tough for the past three years, they hadn't encountered any major incidents.

Lin Feng, along with the able-bodied men of the Tribe, went out hunting every day to survive. They had lived peacefully for three years until a day ago, when the Tribe was attacked by a group of Jackalmen.

There had never been any sign of Jackalmen in the eastern part of the island before. Lin Feng speculated that they had migrated from the northern or southern parts of the island.

The Tribe had only a little over thirty people, including men, women, and children. Facing the attack of dozens of Jackalmen, they had no power to resist.

The tribesmen fought desperately to hold back the Jackalmen's pursuit, allowing the old Tribe Leader and Lin Feng to escape with five children to this gourd-shaped valley.

The old Tribe Leader was severely wounded on the way during their escape. After entering the valley, he used his last bit of strength to give a few instructions before passing away.

Only Lin Feng remained with the five children.

The eldest was twelve years old, and the youngest was only five.

"Brother Lin Feng, what do we do?"

The five children looked at him with tears in their eyes. At this moment, he was their pillar of support.

Lin Feng scratched his head. Surviving on this perilous island with five children seemed almost impossible for him.

The best option was to seek refuge with the Baimu Tribe.

Although he strongly disliked the Baimu Tribe Leader.

He was a complete bloodsucker!

But at this moment, the Baimu Tribe was the only entity that could protect them.

Just as he was about to tell the five children his decision to go to the Baimu Tribe, a "ding" sound echoed in his mind.

"Congratulations to the Host for becoming the Tribe Leader. The 'Human Race Rising' system has been officially activated!"

Lin Feng was startled at first, then overjoyed.

For the past three years, he had complained more than once about why he, as a transmigrator, didn't have any transmigrator perks, like a system?

Even if it wasn't a system, another golden finger would have been fine!

Now it seemed he did have a system, but it only activated after he became the Tribe Leader.

Wasn't this a rip-off!

If the Tribe hadn't been attacked by Jackalmen this time, and he hadn't been appointed to this position in a crisis, he wouldn't have become the Tribe Leader even if he waited another hundred years!

"Brother Lin Feng?"

Seeing that Lin Feng remained silent, the children called out to him again.

"Don't worry, let me think about it."

Lin Feng pretended to be deep in thought, but his consciousness had already entered the system.

A moment later, he had finished understanding the system's functions and clenched his fists in excitement.

This system was too awesome!

The system's primary function was to connect to another world and generate a virtual game there.

Humans in that other world could enter this world as players through the game, helping him develop the Tribe and make it stronger!

"Do you wish to connect to the other world?"

The system's voice echoed in his mind.

"Connect, connect, connect!"

Lin Feng answered without hesitation.

After finally getting a system, only a fool wouldn't connect.

"Randomly connecting to another world, please wait..."

"Connection successful!"

As the connection succeeded, information about the other world appeared in Lin Feng's mind.

It was a world similar to Earth. People lived on a planet called Blue Star, with a technological level equivalent to Earth's around 2020...

"Game generation successful. Please name your game."

"Human Race Rising!"

Lin Feng thought for a moment and said.

"Game naming successful. Official website generation successful. You can recruit players through the official website."

"The system is giving you one pop-up advertisement opportunity. Please select a country for promotion."

The names of over two hundred countries on Blue Star appeared before Lin Feng's eyes.

"Xia Country!"

Lin Feng made his choice without hesitation.

There were two reasons for choosing Xia Country.

First, Xia Country was the most populous country on Blue Star.

Second, Xia Country's civilization was very close to Earth's Huaxia civilization, making communication easy.

Blue Star, Xia Country.

Inside a detached villa, Chen Qing slurped his instant noodles while searching for games on a portal website.

He was a veteran online gamer, having played every online game worth mentioning.

His in-game ID was always "Da Qing."

In games, he was generous, often spending hundreds of thousands on titles he liked. Coupled with his ample free time, he was the epitome of both dedication and spending.

The ID "Da Qing" was quite well-known in the online gaming community.

"What kind of rubbish are these new games lately? All the same, no innovation at all!"

He couldn't help but complain, looking at the latest games released on the website.

He didn't even need to play these games; a glance at their official websites was enough for him to guess their content and gameplay, leaving him with no desire to download and play them.

Just as he was about to close the webpage in disappointment, a game pop-up advertisement appeared in the bottom right corner of his desktop.

He instinctively moved his mouse to the 'X' on the pop-up, intending to close it.

These game ads were usually for web games, with crude graphics, simple gameplay, and full screens of recharge events, none of which interested him.

Just as he was about to close the pop-up, a few flashing words on it made him stop.

"Human Race Rising!"

"A virtual reality game with 100% realism!"

"Giving you a second life!"

His mouse froze.

"Are game advertisements this insane nowadays?"

"100% realism, they actually dare to write that!"

Out of curiosity, he gently clicked on the pop-up ad, wanting to see what this game was all about.

The game's official website popped up. There was no "Start Game" button, nor an option to download the client, only an introduction to the game's background and gameplay.

The game's background was a barbaric continent where myriad races coexisted, with the Human Race in decline. Players needed to help the Human Race rise.

It seemed decent enough.

The official website displayed a few CG images from the game, showing a valley with a strong primitive atmosphere, looking very realistic.

"The CG looks good. A small company making web games has this technology? They didn't just film in some valley and pass it off as CG, did they?"

Chen Qing thought.

He had seen too many games that didn't live up to their advertising, where the promotional videos and images were one thing, and the game itself was completely different, which was ridiculous.

He continued reading.

The control method required wearing a game helmet to enter a virtual game world with 100% realism.

???

A string of question marks appeared in Chen Qing's mind.

A game helmet?

Entering a virtual game world with 100% realism?

What kind of nonsense was this!

He could understand a game helmet as a fully enclosed VR headset, but even the most advanced VR technology wouldn't dare claim 100% realism, right?

Visuals and audio could be simulated, but what about touch, taste, and smell?

He had also tried out several of the better VR games on the market, and honestly, he was very disappointed. They completely lacked the feeling he was looking for.

It was like playing house!

At the very bottom of the official website was a reservation button.
