More people kept replying afterward. Everyone was drawn in by the details in those photos, thought the game looked pretty good, and started searching for a download.

But no one expected the original poster to drop an even bigger bombshell!

Game Zhang: Actually, those are all minor details. The most important thing is that I discovered the game's Time Flow Rate is different from reality!

It felt like I played for several hours, but when I logged out, only a few minutes had passed. I estimate the time flow is around a hundred times faster!

Everyone scoffed at this, thinking he was talking nonsense.

Salted Fish Big Shot: Mom will never have to worry about my studies again. I can just do my homework in the game!

Some curious players also wanted to download the game and see for themselves, but all one hundred slots had long since been snatched up!

Others simply couldn't download it!

Lin Qing could no longer contain his excitement and quickly left a comment on the post.

Xiao Lin: I'm also one of the first-test players. Look for me in the game later and see if we can add each other as friends. I'm going in now!

Lin Qing hurriedly tapped the game icon. His heart pounded as he felt that he had stumbled onto something huge this time.

Could it really have been created by gods, with a different Time Flow Rate? Didn't that mean he had gotten ahead of everyone else?

Lin Qing also read novels on Qidian when he had time. In some novels, the protagonist would often stumble upon a fortuitous encounter and begin a legendary life from then on!

As he entered the game again, Lin Qing's vision went dark. The next second, a vast world came into view.

Whoosh!

He twitched his nose and took a deep breath. The air in this world was simply amazing. One deep breath left his whole body feeling light and airy.

Lin Qing turned his head around and realized he seemed to have reincarnated as a Four Unlike as well.

Thud!

Unable to stand steady, he fell hard. "Why do I have to start by learning how to walk?"

Lin Qing was dumbfounded. He quickly took a screenshot to see what he looked like, only to find a monster with a bull's head, a leopard's body, and a single leg in the image.

"Damn, I scared myself. Am I really that ugly?"

No wonder he couldn't stand steadily. He only had one leg left! He would never mock anyone else for being ugly again. He himself was ugly beyond all reason!

Lin Qing tried to bring up the game interface and found only one line written on it: Unknown Primordial Alien Species. There was no other data.

"Where's my health bar? My mana bar? My level bar? Where's the beginner guide?"

Lin Qing stood there in a daze. He knew this game was designed to screw people over, but he hadn't expected to have to figure out absolutely everything himself.

In the end, curiosity overcame everything. He slowly began trying to walk on one leg. And honestly, this exotic beast's body was incredibly good.

Lin Qing found it effortless to control. A light push of strength sent him five or six meters forward; he only needed to maintain his balance.

And so, the one-legged exotic beast hopped toward the distance. The scenery along the way was breathtaking, enough to make even Lin Qing, who did not care much for scenery, linger over it.

Whenever he occasionally encountered some Big Guys, though, Lin Qing turned and ran. Even if it was only a game character, he remembered the introduction's warning: cherish your game life!

After taking plenty of beautiful screenshots, Lin Qing logged off in the mountains to see what new information had appeared on the forum.

He could also post his pictures and show off. A game where he couldn't post pictures to show off wasn't a good game!

"This game is amazing!"

After logging out, Lin Qing was still reluctant to leave. He had already treated everything he said before as bullshit.

The experience of having a second world was incredible! Back in his own body, he only felt unbearably heavy, nowhere near as light and nimble as in the game.

Yet when he checked the time, only a few minutes had passed!

During the few hours he spent in the game, earth-shaking changes had taken place on the forum!

The post Game Zhang made had been pushed all the way to the top!

The first page of the section was filled with discussions about "Myriad Worlds: Primordial"!

Lin Qing blankly scrolled through a few pages and found that there were already over a hundred!

The titles were more exaggerated than the last.

"Primordial Game—Its Creator Is a God, and No Platform Can Take It Down!"

"A Second World, One Hundred Percent Realistic, Suspected Alien Creation!"

"The Primordial World Holds a Great Secret That Will Change Human History!"

"I Finally Lived to See It: The Virtual Game, Primordial!"

"Time Flow Rate 1:100—The Age of Explosive Technological Growth Has Arrived!"

Lin Qing was utterly stunned. He had known the game was extraordinary, but he hadn't expected it to become this popular in such a short time!

Bang!

The dormitory door was kicked open, and a student rushed in, panting heavily.

"Xiao Lin, what game did you tell me to download before? I think the Weibo rankings are all talking about it!"

Lin Qing took out his phone and saw a trending topic called Primordial Game rapidly climbing the rankings. It had already squeezed into the top ten.

Lin Qing gave a bitter smile. "Too late!"

Da Biao slapped his thigh fiercely. A few days later, he sighed with emotion:

"Once, a heaven-shaking fortuitous encounter was placed before me, but I did not cherish it. I only regretted it beyond remedy after losing it.

There is no greater pain in the world than this. If Heaven gave me another chance, I would be willing to give everything!"

Having just logged out of the game, Lin Qing wanted to look for guides. Yet in such a short time, the hundred players hadn't encountered any intelligent life forms. The Primordial World was simply too vast!

He clicked into Game Zhang's popular post again, wanting to see whether there was any useful information.

Only a few hours had passed, but This time the place was incredibly lively. People kept spamming "Front row, leaving my mark."

Lin Qing discovered that his own reply had also been pinned. People kept replying to him, asking whether he would sell his game account!

He skimmed past those offers and looked at the other first-test players whose posts had likewise been pinned.

Everyone had posted ultra-high-definition pictures. The details were flawless, perfectly matching everyone's fantasies of a Wuxia World.

Pay-to-Win Otaku: I downloaded the game out of curiosity at first. I was just as shocked as the original poster when I started. This is my character in the game.

Lin Qing saw another ugly Four Unlike. Apparently, he wasn't the only case. Everyone was ugly in exactly the same way!

Pay-to-Win Otaku: Don't judge me by how ugly I am. Random reincarnation is just like this. And don't underestimate my appearance—I checked, and I'm a Primordial Alien Species.

I'm fucking awesome. I just killed a Three-headed Rooster!

Lin Qing hurriedly looked. In the picture, a three-headed, two-legged monster lay helplessly on the ground, while a Four Unlike stood majestically beside it with one foot planted on the monster's body!

"That really is impressive!"

Lin Qing sighed. Look at him. They had played for about the same amount of time, yet he was already killing monsters. Lin Qing himself could only hop around; whenever he encountered anything alive, he had to flee for his life.

Many people replied below. Puppet: Big shot, you're awesome! Voice cracking You're already killing monsters!

This is the first successful monster kill I've seen. A first-test player next door got wrecked! He was killed by a cow! (If that was a cow.)

Late-Night Street Racing Veteran: Big shot, 666. By the way, did you level up after killing the monster?

Meng Tun replied, "This game is too realistic. There aren't any health bars or mana bars. After killing that three-headed mutant rooster, not only did I not level up, I got really hungry.

I just ate the whole rooster, feathers and ass included. And damn, it was delicious. I've never eaten food with meat this good before.

It's one hundred percent realistic, and after eating it, my body felt warm. It seemed like I got a little stronger too."

Veteran: Hunger? Looks like this game has a hunger mechanic. First-test players, be careful not to let your characters starve to death. If you see flowers or grass, fill your stomachs first.

Cat Person: I'm the player who got wrecked next door just now. Brothers in the first test, pay attention! Something huge has happened!

I accidentally provoked a monster just now. After it gored me to death, I couldn't revive! The game icon went black, and I can never enter again!

Lin Qing was shocked. Once a game character died, it was dead forever? He could never log into the game again?

No wonder the game introduction said: cherish your game life!

A newest comment below rapidly rose to the top. Lin Qing took a look.

North Underworld Has Rain: Haha! Didn't expect that, did you? Cat Person died, and I happened to be clicking into the game. I snatched his first-test qualification!

Primordial World, here I come! Sister Nuwa, I like you! Voice cracking I'll lick you for the rest of my life!!

Everyone below cursed: Pah! Is that love? You're lusting after her body! You're shameless! (Flying Slap meme).

Nine Heavens European Immortal: You haven't even seen her and you're already saying you like her. Find Goddess Nuwa first. For all you know, she might not even be born yet.

Game Zhang: First-test brothers, cherish your lives. The Primordial World is too vast, so "lying low" should be our top principle.

This game is unimaginably strange. Share any valuable intelligence in time. The most urgent thing now is to find NPC characters we can communicate with!

Let's see what era this is and whether we can become disciples of sages. Then we can swagger through In the Primordial World from then on!

Lin Qing strongly agreed with Game Zhang's idea. Everything about the world was unknown, so it was better to play it safe.

He wolfed down a few bites of food. Under Da Biao's urging, he just wanted to enter the game again to explore when a knock sounded outside the door:

"Open the door, delivery!"

"Open the door, Recommendation Tickets!"
