After Zong Shen completed his third choice of identity.
The screen was refreshed again.

Zong Shen looked at these choices. As he already had some plans in his mind, he decided to start with a strength-focused identity first and then observe the situation.
Therefore, he chose [Knight's Servant].
With the guide system, he could see the hidden items and attributes behind all the choices.
These choices were actually very fair, but each choice had a different attribute.
For example, the small merchants were more intelligent and charismatic.
Bards were full of charm.
Based on Zong Shen's thoughts, it was best not to be too flashy in the beginning. Specialization was the most reliable method, especially for strength. It would definitely be related to battle and would definitely be very helpful for early survival.
Zong Shen followed this line of thought and made the decision.
After this round of selection, the screen actually changed again.
[Why did you become a Lord?]
(Hang in there, this is the last option.)
[Private feud]
(Strength+2, Blow+1)
[Romantic breakup]
(Intelligence+2, Hard Bones+1)
[Love for Adventure]
(Agility+2, Guide+1)
[Expelled by the family]
(Strength+1, Intelligence+1, Weapon Control+1)
[The desire for power and wealth]
(Agility+1, Intelligence+1, Plunder+1)
There was nothing much to choose from this option. After all, since he had decided on a strength-focused identity, Zong Shen chose [Private feud].
After this choice was made, the entire light curtain began to shatter into cubes like a mosaic.
Zong Shen was surrounded by darkness. He could not even see his own fingers.
However, he did not panic.
Because a golden caption appeared in front of him.
(Don't panic. Your journey as a Lord is about to begin.)
He finally realized.
This strategy system was completely within his control. As long as he had doubts, the strategy guide would appear.
Similarly, as long as he willed it, he could make the words on the guide disappear.
As expected, a few seconds after the strategy appeared, a beam of light descended from the sky and shone on Zong Shen.
Then, the surroundings suddenly changed.
From darkness to light.
It gradually became clearer.
In a daze, Zong Shen appeared in a completely new place.
Beneath his feet was a soft grassland.
The air was very fresh.
Not far away, the chirping of birds could be heard.
Zong Shen looked around.
Behind him was a battered house with holes in the roof.
He was surrounded by a small courtyard made of the same broken brick wall.
The perimeter wall was uneven, tall, and short. Broken bricks were scattered everywhere.
The entire courtyard was about 200 square meters.
Apart from this, there was a large wooden chest at his feet and it was similarly in tatters.
Just as Zong Shen was observing.
The rotten wooden door of the house was pushed open.
Three short and stout figures scrambled out.
Their hair was messy like a bird's nest. They wore tattered linen clothes and straw sandals. They looked more like beggars than beggars!
There was a sour and rotten smell on them.
These three people directly knelt in front of Zong Shen, hugged his thigh, and started crying with snot and tears.
"Lord, you have finally arrived!"
"Yeah. We haven't had a full meal in three days. We just ate some berries."
"Ah, my dear Lord, your beauty can win over the Goddess, your talent can conquer the continent, and your strength can subdue the Epic Dragon…"
The three of them talked at once, causing Zong Shen to have a headache.
"Stop, stop, stop! Shut up!"
Zong Shen roared and struggled, pulling his thigh out of their hands.
"Who are you guys?"
This question had just been asked.
Before the three could answer.
The screen appeared again.
Different messages appeared above everyone's heads.
[Farmer: Second Dog (Changeable)]
[Aptitude: Stupid]
(Aptitude can be increased gradually through learning and mastering labor skills. The higher the aptitude, the higher the efficiency of labor.)
[Rank: Level 1]
(You can obtain experience points through fighting and learning to level up. You can level up once you reach level 10, and it will consume some resources.)
[Attribute: (Click to unfold)]
(Every level increases one basic attribute)
[Satiety: 59]
[Loyalty Level: 70]

[Aptitude: Normal]
[Rank: Level 1]
[Attribute: (Click to unfold)]
[Satiety: 59]
[Loyalty Level: 70]
…
The names and information of the three of them were still vivid in his mind. They were like game NPCs hanging above their heads.
Zong Shen looked at the three dumb-looking farmers in front of him and was somewhat speechless…
At this moment, the system's suggestion appeared.
(As long as these three little fools can eat their fill, they will be utterly faithful to you. They can perform some simple labor to gradually increase their aptitude. I suggest you form a team for the three of them. That ordinary Iron Pole is currently the best candidate to become the captain!)
Emmm…
Zong Shen was embarrassed.
The beginning was at a crappy little yard with three silly farmers, just like that…
What kind of damned Lord was this!
This should be the leader of a beggar's gang!
However, now was not the time to consider this.
"Sigh, let's check the initial resources first."
Zong Shen sighed and turned to walk towards the large wooden box.
