The Geared Immortal

Entering the game world Part 2

/*unedited*/

The problem with Susan Tang's family was solved just like that. The two brothers were disciplined by their father and were knocked down from their position in the company. Susan Tang was given the chance to inherit the huge conglomerate, but she refuses until she became worthy to run such a company.

Meanwhile, the 'Merging Worlds' game is still a hot topic in the media and the people. As the NXT elements release more than 500,000 visor units. And in just a week, it was already sold out. Everyone is very excited to enter the game. This is because it is truly a second world where an ordinary person can become extraordinary.

It appears that there was even a prediction that, the 'Merging Worlds' would dominate many parts of the economy in the future. Entertainment, advertisements, even employment would be affected.

As the company grows, its fame and cash flow also grew with it.

…

"I hope that this plan would work. If I can enter that world, maybe my memories would recover." Shin Jiao thought for a while as he mulled over whether he would enter the game or not.

In the game, his real strength is inconsequential, and as he would start from level 1.

But for the sake of recovering his memories, he has to try everything.

Ring! Ring!

His attention was interrupted by the ringing of his phone.

Looking at the caller I.D. his expression suddenly changes to surprise. The called was an acquaintance of his, the bespectacled young man of the Hui family, Jun Hui.

"Hello, haven't heard from you for a while. How are you?" Shin Jiao said with a neutral tone.

"I'm good brother Shin… I'm, I'm just calling to invite you to a party. My grandfather decided to invite you to his birthday party tomorrow evening. Plus… I… I have something to ask you. It's about an artifact." Jun Hui said.

"Hmm… an artifact. Sounds interesting." Shin Jiao thought.

"Alright, I'll be there."

"Really! Thank you, brother Shin! It's at xxx hotel. The party will start at 7 p.m."

After the call, Shin Jiao turns his attention back to the visor in the corner. He decided to try entering the game and see if it would help with the recovery of his memory.

Putting on the visor, he lay down the soft sofa, and then not long later his vision change.

Inside the login option, you have many choices. Except for changing your body features, you cannot change your appearance. This is because the game uses your own spirit as it interacts with the Qi that's covering your body.

"So this the world, I created. It seems that there are many people already playing the game."

"Oh wow, this feels like those old European movies… Eh? Wait a minute, why was I sent to this place? I should be on an Asian server, right? But… this… this is Europe!"

Shin Jiao was dumbfounded at what happened. As the creator of the game, he clearly designed the game to exist in their own sphere. The large continent of Xi is divided into many servers according to your country of origin. This way, one would be able to use their language in-game.

But it seems that there are some errors when it comes to him. Yet, this is not logical. He designed the game to be self-sufficient and can stand on its own. Everything is controlled by Central, so the question is why was he sent to the European server?

Looking around, Shin Jiao saw that the environment really belongs to the medieval ages of Europe.

"I guess mages and knights have their class here." He muttered.

As part of his plan, he researched each continent's legends and myths. And so, he applied this to the game's core so that everyone could at least enjoy the game according to their own preference.

While walking, Shin Jiao saw a group of players in the middle of the village.

"Hey, we need to hunt the boss Kobold so that we can complete our quest." A man wearing knight armor said.

"But we still lack two players in our team. How can the four of us defeat such a monster?" the woman wearing a mage robe rebutted.

"Don't worry, Mary can help us by healing, right Mary?" the knight said looking at a timid looking girl.

"Hey, Aaron! Don't be smug, last time you almost got KOed. If not for Cecile, so just follow her lead." A man who looks like a swordsman said.

"Whatever, you guys look for partners, I'll go buy some more potion." Aaron the knight said as he turns around and walks towards the potion store.

"That guy is always trouble, all brawn, and no brain." The mage Cecile said with exasperation.

After listening to them Shin Jiao wanted to turn around and leave, but he was met with a woman wearing two daggers on her back.

She smiled and approached him.

"Hi, I'm May… I'm a warrior who likes to use two daggers. Hehe… What's your name?"

"Umm… Shin…"

"Oh, Shin! That's a nice name! You will be the sixth member of our team along with this guy!" she said while pointing at the small figure she is dragging behind.

The young man behind her looks like a healer from his robe which has a greater resemblance to the woman named Mary.

Shin Jiao wanted to say, no but he soon discovers that the strength of May is something else. He could not even move his arm as he too was dragged to the team in the middle of the village.

"Okay, guys! These two are Shin and Glen. Shin is a… a swordsman and Glen is a healer." She said feeling contented with her accomplishments.

Shin Jiao wanted to say no to this, but his curiosity got the best of him, so he just go with the flow.

Not long later the man wearing knight armor walks out and saw that their group already has a party of six people. So he smiles and walks to the group.

"We are ready now, right?"

The party started to walk out of the village. Shin Jiao checked his inventory and saw that he only have a wooden sword as a weapon. Looking at the party he is in right now, he didn't want to take it out so that he can stay with the group for a while.

He decided to just use hand-to-hand combat to fight.

While traveling, Shin Jiao checks his skills and felt a little conflicted. This is because he didn't really know how to use them. He just programed the skills and let Central do the rest. But still, his natural curious self wanted to test everything out.

Not long later, Cecile raised her hand to stop the party.

"There is a group of Goblins ahead, ten of them," May explained as she stood near the two new members, Shin Jiao and Glen.

"On her command, we must attack immediately. Everyone ready your weapons." May said in a low voice.

Hearing words, Glen immediately took out his short staff.

But Shin Jiao just observes the surroundings.

"Hmm… I wonder if I can use my absolute sense or spirit sense here." He thought as he tried to spread his sense.

But what happened next surprised him. What he saw was the room he is in and not the game.

"Ah, I guess I have to rely on my own wits and senses while inside the game then." He thought.

However, what happened next surprised him.

'System detected user to have awakened inner spiritual power…'

'System is opening the user's spirit root, processing 1%... 60%... 100%. Process completed! The user is able to use Qi… current level… 1'

'Unique Skill learned: Spirit sense lv. 1'

Then Shin Jiao saw his stats.

…

Level 1

Job = none

Health = 100

Qi/Mana = 100/0

Endurance = 10

Strength = 10

Stamina = 10

Dexterity = 10

Intelligence = 10

Skills:

Spirit sense lv 1 = can detect everything within 10 meters in radius.

…

When Shin Jiao saw his stats he felt a bit baffled.

"It seems that I accidentally opened a unique skill. I thought I didn't add this thing, I guess Central added it huh."

Now he had a spiritual sense in-game, he didn't hesitate to use it and scanned ten meters of his surroundings. From there he can see all of his teammates, but it was not enough to detect the enemies. But Shin Jiao is already stratified with this.

"Everyone move! Attack!" Cecile shouted as she suddenly sent a fireball flying towards the group of Goblins.

Boom!!!

Two goblins flew out and turn into a floating white wisp after being killed by her fireball.

Aaron and May immediately jump out of the bushes and immediately brandished their swords and knives. The two faces one goblin each and clashed with them.

Shin Jiao didn't waste his time and also rushed in. What he didn't notice is the level of the goblin he is facing. In his excitement, he didn't even bother scanning his enemies. But he had no time to do so because right in front of him is a green goblin holding a club filled with barbs.

Eeek!!!

Shouted all of the goblins as they rushed toward the enemies who are running towards them.

Shin Jiao uses martial arts to fight against the goblin in front of him.

However, it is not that effective.

It seems that his fist is not strong enough to affect the goblin that wildly swings the club in its hand.

Suddenly Shin Jiao had an idea.

He dodges the swing coming to his head and then suddenly with a quick move, grabs the wrist of the goblin. Then with one twist of his whole body, the goblin cried in pain.

Upon seeing this, Shin Jiao had a look of excitement in his eyes.. This is because he found that he can actually disarm his opponent.
