Trim ... Trim ...At the sound of the alarm clock, Liu Yang woke up from his sleep, finis.h.i.+ng his morning needs. At breakfast time, his mother asks him.
"Son, are you nervous about going back to school? It"s time to get back together with your old cla.s.smates. "
"I do not know, I think it"s going to be the same as usual, going to cla.s.s and coming home later, what will change is that I"ll have to play that game while I study."
"Yes, that may be true, but enjoy this school year as it is the last one before the university."
"All right, bye, see you later."
"See you later."
This was the morning talk between mom and son.
Arriving at the college and sitting in the chair by the window, seeing that he has not yet given the cla.s.s time, he puts one arm over the other and puts his head on his arms. A few minutes later, it starts to play the signal.
Tram ... Tram ...
Students begin to arrive and the room is filled, the teacher arrived and began to observe the students, Liu Yang lifted his face and began to stretch while sitting in the chair.
"Good morning everyone, this year I will be your supervisor, I will be checking your progress during your time in the game during the year, those who achieve more achievements, more points will have and the higher the final score. It is also worth remembering that you should not despair because there is always a second alternative for those who do not want to follow the path of the game, for example, your teacher here.
I did not continue my progress in the game, because I was stagnant in one step and could not move forward, so I stopped playing. Of course, this part of the game is only valid for those who are sixteen or older and have already had the initiation, but since this cla.s.s is high school last year, I think everyone here is over sixteen. "
After the speech the professor paused, one face showing that he did not remember the next part.
"Well, now I"ll do a little check on your progress as your name in New Earth, age, level, and cla.s.s. Those I call standing up. "
"Character A"
"Yeah, my name is SkyWalls, 17 years old, level 177 and I"m a Warrior."
What he got up was a fat, pale young man, five feet five inches, with a bad face, in other words, he is a s.h.i.+eld of flesh, as the name says.
A few whispers could be heard after the performance.
"Here it says that you are seventeen and that in a few months he will be eighteen. Good progress for someone standing in the front lines in battles. "
"Thank you, teacher."
"Character B."
"My name in New Earth is" SilentSilence", age is 17 years old, level 169, a.s.sa.s.sin."
The one raised was a skinny kid who wears gla.s.ses and is half-pale, six feet tall. He had a calm way as if you could not see through him.
When he finishes performing some faces of astonishment appeared on the faces of some because the cla.s.s of a.s.sa.s.sins is considered one of the most difficult cla.s.ses to level because of the fragility of the character and most groups usually choose not to have a a.s.sa.s.sins with them, due to these factors and a few others that the a.s.sa.s.sins are difficult to level.
"Good, very good, being an a.s.sa.s.sin and having just a little more than a year of play, is great progress."
"Thank you, teacher."
"Character C."
"Present, my name is BreakForce, 17 years, level 192, Wizard."
What he got up was a young man with gla.s.ses with brown skin, medium size, had a normal face, but full of confidence.
Most find it normal for a Wizard with more than a year of gameplay to be level 180 - 190, as it is one of the most desired group cla.s.ses to go to dungeons and leveling locations, even if their damage is not high, their spells in the area and its negative effects, help the group a lot.
"Very good too, I hope it keeps pace at this rate throughout the year."
"Thank you, teacher."
...
So it was for a while until it was Liu Yang"s turn.
"The next is ... Hmm ..."
The teacher looks astonished when he looks at the paper he holds in his hands.
"You."
The teacher points to one of the students sitting in the sings near the window.
"Me?"
"No, the student behind you."
"Me?" Liu Yang replied.
"Yes, yourself, here it says that you have just turned sixteen, a little over a month, is this information correct?" The teacher asks with some doubt.
"Yes, this information is correct."
"You can tell your information in New Earth."
"My name is Ward, level 1 and no cla.s.s yet."
When he had finished introducing himself, some of his colleagues looked doubtful.
"Interesting, boy, you probably have not left to level in the last month, I presume you stayed inside the city looking for information and also stayed in the initial training camp for beginners, that"s fine, for someone who is new, having a foundation will help you through the difficulties in the future."
The teacher made an a.n.a.lysis of the situation of Liu Yang from the information available, thus removing the doubt of the students who did not understand.
"Thank you, teacher."
After Liu Yang, the teacher continued the call for a little while, in the last three hours of cla.s.s, it was the brief presentation on how the New Earth was created, the benefits it brought, and why young people should focus on the game to succeed and glory.
At the end of the lesson, Liu Yang returned home, reconnected to New Earth and returned to his training because he still lacked the spear and the ax.
After several hours of training with the two remaining weapons, Liu Yang received two notifications.
Plop ...
"Congratulations you have completed the initial training with all types of attack weapons, you will receive +10 in all stats", "You received the t.i.tle: The apprentice of weapons (This t.i.tle guarantees +1 in all statistics and can be acc.u.mulated with other t.i.tles) ".

While he was lost in the sight of his Status window, the muscular man appeared beside him and called out to him.
"Young man, what"s your name?"
"My name is Ward."
"My name is Norman, I am one of the instructors of this training camp, I would like to congratulate you for completing the initial training challenge, between the weapons you trained, which one did you fit the most?"
The muscular man"s name was Norman, and he was one of the instructors here.
(I think he"ll give me a reward for completing this hidden Quest) Liu Yang though.
"The weapon that suited me the most was the sword." The young man answered without hesitation.
"Follow me."
Liu Yang walked behind the instructor to a sort of dusty warehouse where it had various types of weapons, the instructor took an old iron sword, about five feet long and three inches wide and five inches long.
"Young man, take it, this is the proof that you completed the training in this field." Liu Yang took the sword and looks at his stats.

Seeing that Liu Yang equipped the sword, instructor Norman asked.
"A young man named Ward, would you like a little part-time job while you"re in town?"
A "Plop" appears and a window pops up for Liu Yang.
"Quest: Part-time work - Norman is looking for adventurers qualified for the job, only those with patience and power can be accepted. Requirement: You have completed the initial training camp."
"Accept - Decline"
(A quest, just after finis.h.i.+ng training, it should not be a normal quest ... But only with the big risks coming to the big rewards)
"I accept."
Ding
"You accepted the mission"
"Ward, follow me, I"ll take it to your employer."
Following the instructor, Liu Yang arrived at a small mansion in the center of the city, at the entrance on a sign written "Mansion of the Lord of Fire."
The guards saw the two arriving and putting themselves in a defensive position, but when they look at the instructor and recognize him, the guards return to their posts.
After we entered the mansion, the instructor Norman asked the butler for an audience with the Lord.
"Follow me, sir."
The butler asks us to follow him, while the group walks, it was possible to see several young women dressed in maid clothes, whenever the butler pa.s.sed, they greeted him. Reaching a large wooden door, the butler spoke.
"My lord, Instructor Norman is here to see you."
"Let him in."
The voice that came from inside was feminine a little hoa.r.s.e, but it was soft.
Receiving permission, the butler opened the door and gestured for Liu Yang and instructor Norman to enter the room.
The interior of the room looked like a large office with two sofas facing each other and a square table in the middle between them. At the end of the room was a middle-aged woman dressed in orange-red, her hair was brown, and it reached her back.
"Here are the guests, my lord."
The butler makes a gesture of presentation, and then he goes out the door.
"Sorry to bother you, miss."
"Do not worry, instructor, I asked you to find capable people. So without further loss of time, who is this young boy?"
"This young man is Ward, the new employee I brought you."
"Nice to meet you, miss."
"Nice to meet you too, my name is Veola, the lord of this city. So it means you took part-time work, right? "
"Yes."
"Has instructor Norman told you about exactly what you should do?"
"Not yet."

After hearing Liu Yang"s reply, Ms. Veola, look at the instructor as I was speaking to him through the eyes, the instructor did not say anything.
"Whatever, as the instructor has not told you, I"ll tell you what you should do. The job is basically this: you will go to the Endless Mountains and look for rare ores and bring back, the rarer the ore the greater the value will be received in return. "
"That"s it?"
"Yes."
"I have a little doubt, how long will the contract work and how many hours of work a day."
"The contract time is two months and the working day is twenty hours."
(Whatttttt?!?! Twenty hours?!?! This is not a work, this is slave work. Even though it"s a game, NPCs should not exploit players that way, but stopping to think, players usually exploit NPCs, I think that"s how much change they"re giving players for all those years of NPC exploration.) was the thought that arose in the mind of Liu Yang.
"Are you accepting the work?"
Plop...
"Quest: Employment application of Mrs. Veola, the city lord: You want the employee to go to the mountains to look for ores. Rank: E - Remaining time: two months. Requirements: Accept Norman"s proposal ".
"Accept - Decline"
When the window appeared, Liu Yang came out of the trance and calmed down, he began to think a little before accepting the proposal.
(The quest rank E is the worst of all and the reward depends on what I can find, the problem is the location, if you have strong monsters, I will not have much peace when it comes to looking)
"Can I know if there are dangerous monsters on the spot?" Liu Yang asked after brief thought.
"No, the area where the dig will be made there is no creature."
"I accept."
Ding ...
"You accepted the mission"
Accepting the mission, the instructor took Liu Yang up to a shed to pick up some digging equipment like picks and shovels.
The two of them went to a plot of several large stones with an old man with white hair and beards sitting on a wooden chair resting on a medium-sized tree.
"Old Noel, are you asleep?"
"I was sleeping, but not now, what do you want?"
"Old Noel, could you teach this young man how to extract ores from the mountain?"
"This young man is the new employee?"
"Yes."
"Young man, what"s your name?"
"My name is Ward and I just accepted the work offer."
"Follow me."
Liu Yang and the instructor Norman followed old Noel to a large rock, he picked up a pickaxe and started using its tip to hit the stone until he created a small hole, using his hands he began to take some debris into the hole until he found a small bright crystal the size of a small bean.
"If the boy can do the same, he will have learned the ability to extract ores. Try it."
When Liu Yang tried, but he could not even make a crack in the stone, he could not understand why until old Noel intervened.
"Young man, you are doing wrong, you have to feel the stone and find your weakness."
Finis.h.i.+ng his speech, old Noel called the instructor and left with him, leaving Liu Yang alone on the ground.
