"'Boundless Endless' has been open for ten thousand years. What kind of all-people online game is it, exactly?"

"Recently, the Longevity Family announced that it would increase its support for new players. Is this really true?"

"Why are 'Class Change Credentials,' required for level advancement, getting harder and harder to farm?"

"After ten thousand years since launch, why hasn't the world's population increased significantly?"

"A new round of logins is about to begin. Who among the Longevity Family will become one of the strongest players of this era? Find out in 'The Complete Guide to the Longevity Family's Gu-raising Style of Training'!"

"The Guild Heart has been lost for over four thousand years. When will the many guild mechanisms finally be restored?"

"According to official sources, 'Boundless Endless' may soon undergo an unprecedented transformation, the likes of which haven't been seen in ten thousand years."

"What kind of world comes after the legend of 'Boundless Endless'?"

"Can we really achieve eternal life through 'Boundless Endless'?"

"Is the Longevity Family a ten-thousand-year-old force helping Blue Star grow, or a ten-thousand-year-old demon harming Blue Star?"

"Breaking news! Moerdan of the Longevity Family is about to marry Saqiesi of the Longevity Family!"

In the classroom, as he browsed all kinds of news about the online game "Boundless Endless," Zhou Heng's thoughts gradually became clear.

He had transmigrated to this grand era, known as the "Online Game Era."

The world he was in was a parallel world to his hometown, "Earth": "Blue Star." Ten thousand years ago, the mysterious online game "Boundless Endless" had descended upon Blue Star. All Blue Star residents could enter "Boundless Endless" and explore its vast, boundless world.

In the Boundless Endless World, even a disabled person, as long as they were willing to work hard to grow stronger, could not only fully recover their limbs, but even gain an endless lifespan and extraordinary power.

With this power behind them, the people of Blue Star had developed frantically, building three colossal powers over the course of ten thousand years.

One: The official power, formed from the governments of various countries, called the "Blue Star Federation."

Two: The formidable group that had risen rapidly by capitalizing on special advantages, the Longevity Family.

Three: The ordinary system, led by countless ordinary players.

Compared with the "Blue Star Federation," formed by the governments of various countries, it was clear from the words between the lines in all kinds of news that the Longevity Family was the most powerful force in the Online Game Era. Even the "Blue Star Federation" was slightly inferior.

To be honest, at first glance, it seemed completely unreasonable for the government to be suppressed by a family.

But whatever existed was the truth. There must be something here that a rookie like him, who hadn't logged in yet, didn't know...

At the same time, unlike other transmigrators, it seemed that he had caused his own transmigration.

He remembered it very clearly. He had just finished work, having been worked like a draft animal, and returned home when he accidentally logged on to some website called the "Transmigrator Association." It had said that he was one of the "lucky ones" randomly selected over billions of eras, and he had filled out a "Transmigration Application Form."

He had chosen the online game world "Boundless Endless," and he had also chosen his method of transmigration, "truck-kun," which had come true, too. Even "regress to infancy" and "recover memories at eighteen" had been his own choices, and they had both come true as well.

He also remembered that he had chosen the online game world "Boundless Endless" with the difficulty maxed out: the highest, "Despair"...

"What cheat did I choose again?" As Zhou Heng pondered, footsteps sounded outside the classroom. Soon, a handsome young man walked in.

He wore a fitted, long-sleeved shirt and trousers in blue-green. Standing tall and straight at the lectern, he swept his sharp, eagle-like gaze over the room before slowly speaking.

"Children, congratulations on reaching the watershed age of eighteen. At this age, you're considered ready to stand on your own in Xia Kingdom. In Boundless Endless, it means you can officially log in and pursue whatever you want. I won't say more. Let me reiterate three things." The young man spoke with force and conviction, holding up three fingers. As he lowered them one by one, he continued.

"First, protect your three initial chances to die. This isn't how things were thousands of years ago, when you could farm Revival Coins as much as you wanted. Once you use them up, you either stay in Boundless Endless forever, becoming a skeleton beneath someone else's feet, or find a way to obtain one of those incredibly rare Revival Coins."

"Second, in Boundless Endless, don't believe everything anyone says before you have enough strength. Although you've studied a lot of basic theory over the years, it's still just theory. Putting it into practice is far more difficult."

"Third, Blue Star is the best haven. Thanks to the mechanism that prevents people from being killed in any way, if you find yourselves in a life-or-death crisis, you can try to disengage and return. Also, although you can't bring your strength back to Blue Star, you can bring your lifespan back. So do everything you can to level up and raise your level as high as possible. Understood?"

The young man's voice fell. Nobody answered. They all looked at him with anticipation and fighting spirit. He chuckled. As someone who had been through it himself, how could he not understand what these children were thinking?

"Good. I can see the vigor and vitality of new players in you. In seven days, I look forward to your triumphant return. Now, everyone, hold your breath and focus. Follow the method taught in your textbooks, visualize the four characters 'Boundless Endless,' and log in to the Boundless Endless World. Lastly, I wish you all an excellent random talent and a perfect start."

Zhou Heng took a deep breath, suppressing every distracting thought. As he focused, he used the method recorded in his textbook to visualize the four characters "Boundless Endless" in his mind. The next second, a faint light appeared from the void and shot into the depths of Zhou Heng's brow. Then, lines of text appeared...

[Your memories have been restored. You have obtained the relevant information] [Main World: Earth] [World to Conquer; Boundless Endless] [Difficulty: Despair] [Cheat: Fate Hint] [Starting Circumstances: Orphan] [Target: None] [Transmigration Mode: Physical Transmigration + Infant Form + Rescue Truck]

Zhou Heng's face showed sudden understanding. He remembered now: the cheat he had chosen was "Fate Hint," an extremely powerful and astonishing ability.

[You are connecting to "Boundless Endless"] [Checking the population of your region] [Blue Star-Human Race-Xia Kingdom Citizen-No. 000099999, welcome] [Checking your physical fitness. Randomizing your initial talent] [You have obtained a personal attribute panel]

With a whoosh, a panel visible only to Zhou Heng appeared before his eyes.

True Name: Zhou Heng Level: 1 Attack: 1-2 Magic: 0-0 Health: 30/30 Mana: 0/0 Armor: 0 Attack Speed: 1.0/s Movement Speed: 1.2m/s Water Attribute Reduction: 0 Fire Attribute Reduction: 0 Wind Attribute Reduction: 0 Lightning Attribute Reduction: 0 Ice Attribute Reduction: 0 Wood Attribute Reduction: 0 Light Attribute Reduction: 0 Dark Attribute Reduction: 0 Experience: 0/100 Fate Hint (Unique): When you face a choice of fate, fate will give you a tangible hint

Seeing his talent, even though Zhou Heng had almost completely fused with this life's memories, he couldn't stop the corners of his mouth from rising.

In the Online Game Era, after ten thousand years of development, talents were divided into six grades: C, B, A, S, SS, and SSS. Zhou Heng had never heard of a grade called "Unique," but as a transmigrator's cheat, a "Unique-Tier" ability made perfect sense.

"This attribute panel really is as terrible as the textbooks said." During his eighteen years on "Blue Star," everything he had learned from textbooks and heard through the grapevine had shown him a glimpse of this "Despair" world.

To say nothing of anything else, just the movement speed and attack speed on the panel were downright laughable. At 1.2m/s, it was an embarrassing speed whether before or after transmigration, because it was only as fast as an adult walking.

Although the textbooks had said that in the world of "Boundless Endless," level 50 was equivalent to an adult in reality, while level 1 was about the same as an infant in the present world, with an infant's speed fixed at 1.2m/s.

At first glance, this seemed like a perfectly reasonable explanation. But compared with it, Zhou Heng was more interested in the version he'd heard through the grapevine: according to rumors, a long, long time ago, the Longevity Family had gradually cut down the initial login players' attack speed and movement speed, forcibly reducing their base values from 10.0 to the 1.0 range.

If that explanation was true, then the Longevity Family had cut ordinary players' login speed from the level of an ordinary person sprinting at full speed to that of a crawling infant.

As Zhou Heng pondered, the point of light between his brows grew brighter and brighter. Soon, it shot out of his brow and enveloped his entire body. Then, a huge hole appeared overhead and pulled him completely into the world of "Boundless Endless." He wasn't the only one. The entire class-and indeed, all eighteen-year-old students around the world-vanished at that very moment.

The young teacher pressed both hands against a desk and stared blankly at the students who had disappeared. The vigor and fighting spirit had vanished from his face, replaced by desolation and bitterness.

"After educating these students for three years, how many of them will return alive from their first login?"

The young teacher murmured. Things were no longer as they had been when "Boundless Endless" first launched. After ten thousand years of development, there were many things the new generation could no longer change.

Even within the vast, boundless world of "Boundless Endless," the classes had already become entrenched.

Resources, beauty, and power had all been divided up over the past ten thousand years. If one couldn't set aside one's dignity and become someone else's workhorse, it was genuinely difficult to make a name for oneself or achieve anything. Thinking of his own experiences, the young teacher let out a long sigh.

PS: This book has a vast world, introduced through expansions, and is divided into volumes by class changes. Many readers have said they love it after reading it~ (*^▽^*). Also, please try to finish reading the first volume! The first volume is 30 chapters!
