System Management Rights: Rank 'B'
"Rank 'B' rights?"
Lu Jin was stunned when he saw the data that had been displayed on the panel.
Young Lu Jin's basic stats were pretty decent. He was one of the rare experts who had achieved Rank 'B' in Strength and Neural Reaction when he was only a Level 10 Adventurer. Once he had achieved Rank 'B' in Agility and Endurance, and had upgraded his AR system to Level 11, he could advance to Level 11 as an Adventurer, which was a whole new stage.
However, the merits of his basic stats were not worth mentioning when he took his system management rights into account.
The 'B' rank in system management rights had been commissioned by the Advanced Internal Testing Authority of Fantasy World. It was not something that ordinary people could obtain.
Normally, after becoming a player of Fantasy World, a player would have a system management rights rank of 'D', which was the lowest rank. Those who were chosen to be internal beta testers would have a system management rights rank of 'C' during the internal testing. Only those who participated in the core testing had their system management rights rank upgraded to 'B'.
Initially, the system management rights ranks of 'B' and 'C' were specially introduced to speed up the internal beta testers' progress so that they could adapt to Fantasy World better. Once the public beta was released, the system management rights would be automatically withdrawn by the system.
"Could it be that after I transmigrated 400 years into the future, the system automatically allowed me to retain my system management rights from the past?" Lu Jin was deep in thought.
It was impossible for the advanced internal testing rights to have existed in the current world because it was originally a temporary setup. Once the public beta was released, it would have been voided. As long as players logged into Fantasy World, their internal testing data would have been cleared.
The reason that he still could have his internal testing rights now could only be that he had retained them from 400 years ago. After all, he had not even had the chance to join the public beta before he had arrived here. Even the mastermind of Fantasy World would not have thought of such a miraculous occurrence.
"This is going to be interesting." Lu Jin couldn't help but smile slightly. "The ID is Lu Jin. Permission to activate the system management rights!"
System: Permission granted. Welcome to the administrator system, internal beta tester Lu Jin.
"D*mn! It works!" Lu Jin almost exclaimed when he saw the notification from the system.
Advanced internal testing rights!
Although the internal testing rights were insignificant to an actual AI manager, to a public beta player, it was like unlocking a plug-in.
The internal testing rights were specially initiated to allow players to progress quickly and experience Fantasy World. The advanced internal testing rights had three main functions.
The first function was the Item Lottery. One could randomly get an item. There was a wide range of items that could be obtained, including all types of tools, potions, blueprints, special accessories, and even Fantasy World's rare Book of Skills.
The rarity of the item would be determined by the amount of memory fragments that the player had given up for exchange. There were three types of Item Lotteries.
The Normal Item Lottery required an exchange of 100 units of memory fragments.
The Rare Item Lottery required an exchange of 500 units of memory fragments.
The Special Item Lottery required an exchange of 1,000 units of memory fragments.
The Item Lottery function was accessible to all internal beta testers. As long as they continued to defeat monsters, they would continue to obtain various power-up items.
One of the remaining two functions was the Map Exploration function, while the other was the Data Scanning function. Those two functions were only accessible to senior internal beta testers.
The Map Exploration function allowed players to know the coordinates of all monsters within a radius of one kilometer.
The Data Scanning function allowed players to know the detailed stats of monsters.
With those two functions, players would have a greater ability to survive when they entered dangerous regions.
"Initially, I thought that I would have to wait until I've entered the Fantasy Light Group before my AR system can be upgraded from Level 10. Now, I can save myself the trouble." After Lu Jin had read all the data, he closed the data bar. He had a look of anticipation in his eyes. "I don't have the chance today, but tomorrow, I can challenge the depths of the misty zone."
Fantasy World had been developing for 400 years. Due to the mist, more than 90% of players were unable to progress beyond Level 10.
AR level was everything now. People whose AR level was above 10 were worlds apart from others who were at AR Level 10.
If a player went to the city to look for a job, he would find that there was a significant difference in treatment between a Level 10 player and a Level 11 player.
However, the biggest difference between an AR Level 10 player and an AR Level 11 player was neither the treatment nor the income. It was the ability to travel between major cities.
As long as the players had achieved Level 10 as Adventurers, they would have the ability to traverse the barriers that blocked the prominent areas of each of the major cities.
Such a talent was rare in any city and could be considered a person who was truly free. Even without the Xia family's status and resources, he could still lead a good life.
…
In the maglev limousine that was returning to the city area of the City of Light:
"Lianyue, what do you think of Lu Jin?" Xia Qingyao asked softly as she studied the latest news about influential families, in the back seat.
"Miss, what are you asking about?" In the front seat, Lianyue, who had a straight face, said plainly, "Are you asking about the good points or the bad points?"
"Let's talk about the good points first."
Xia Qingyao gently shrugged her shoulders and stretched her body. It was as if she could only relax when she was alone with Qin Lianyue.
Qin Lianyue looked at the domineering Xia Qingyao, who seemed as though she was the ruler of the world, and said slowly, "The good point is that Mr Lu Jin is actually interested in you, Miss."
Xia Qingyao was stunned for a moment. She couldn't help but look at herself and primped herself lightly.
Xia Qingyao was actually very confident about her figure and appearance.
"Miss, you should have some self-awareness too." Qin Lianyue saw the puzzled look on Xia Qingyao's face and sighed. "Usually, when you're in the office, the male employees would avoid you like the plague. When they saw you, it was like mice seeing a cat. Otherwise, there wouldn't have been only three people from those influential families who applied to be the Xia family's son-in-law…"
Xia Qingyao did not mind Qin Lianyue's provocative evaluation at all. She simply shifted in her seat and said calmly, "Is that so? It seems like it's indeed good news for me. What about the bad news?"
Qin Lianyue said without hesitation, "I'm afraid that Mr Lu Jin could be used by the aggressive Jiang Haoyuan!"
"Jiang Haoyuan? He is trouble indeed. He has many tricks up his sleeve and is very powerful. Moreover, he doesn't hide his huge ambition at all. It's all thanks to him that the group could develop so quickly in the past few years." Xia Qingyao shifted unconsciously and frowned slightly. "With Jiang Haoyuan's methods, it's indeed possible that he could make Lu Jin his chess piece and stir up the entire group. It looks like we need you to constantly monitor Lu Jin."
Jiang Haoyuan!
The most notorious young man in the Fantasy Light Group.
Back then, she worked with Jiang Haoyuan to build the Fantasy Light Group. However, Jiang Haoyuan was too ambitious and should never be allowed to enter the Xia family.
"I understand. I will keep an eye on him." Qin Lianyue nodded.
…
The next morning, just as the morning light illuminated the City of Light, Lu Jin left the house with a sports bag on his back.
After a night of recovery, Lu Jin's exhaustion had completely vanished. His body had recovered by 70% to 80% and he no longer felt weak and hungry like when he had first woken up.
"In the past, I've always been active within a five-kilometer range of the heavy mist, which had been crowded. Today, I'll take a look at the 10-kilometers area."
Lu Jin turned on his AR glasses and studied the map of the area around the city. After confirming a direction, he sped off on his bicycle.
