Ye Zhou groaned and opened his eyes. When he opened his eyes, what he saw was a thatched roof and he found himself lying on a tattered wooden bed.
He was a little surprised to find himself in such a shabby place. If he doesn't remember correctly that he is in the game, he will think that he has transmigrated, because what he feels in this game is so realistic.
"No wonder, the developer said that this game offers a realism level of 99-100%", Ye Zhou muttered.
Although he had read information that said that the realism level was 99-100%, knowing it from the information and experiencing it for himself was a different sensation.
In his previous life, he only played games through the PC, in other words he played through the keyboard. But now, he can enter the game for real.
"Woww."
While Ye Zhou was still enthusiastically enjoying the sensation of entering a VR game, a creak of wood sounded and the door of the hut opened instantly.
He reflexively alerted the sudden disturbance and saw that the visitor was a white bearded old man with a wrinkled face and shabby clothes who Ye Zhou estimated to be in his 60s.
"This old man should be an NPC in the game," Ye Zhou thought.
It was previously mentioned that the NPCs in the game "Jianghu: Ancient World" are a collection of data that make up Artificial Intelligence (AI). And from this group of NPCs, cultivated by the Jianghu world consciousness called [Huangdi].
And from the information obtained by Ye Zhou, the developers as well as the government both the [Federation] and the [Empire] could not interfere with the game's technical system excessively. So, it is concluded that the Game Master (GM), does not have much authority in this game.
The old man walked slowly towards Ye Zhou and then sat on the wooden chair which was right beside the bed occupied by Ye Zhou.
"Young man, are you awake?" The old man asked in a tone that did not hide his concern.
"Grandpa, who are you? And if I may ask, where am I now?" Ye Zhou asked the old man while cupping his hands respectfully.
"Oh, son… There's no need to be so polite to this old man. I am the village head of Green Misty Forest Village's, Wang Guo. Previously you were found by Lao Wang in the mountain when he was about to hunt. Then you were brought here and treated by Doctor Bai."
Ye Zhou's mouth twitched slightly at this. At first he thought it would be like other players who would be transferred to one of the 10 starter villages. However, he was transferred to an unknown place.
"Besides, what's with this routine? Found in the middle of the mountain." Ye Zhou thought.
Ye Zhou once again confirmed that the NPCs and experiences he had experienced were not up to the standard scripts in VRMMORPGs.
"Thank you in advance for taking care of me. Sorry for troubling the villagers"
"Oh, there's no need to hesitate. By the way why did you faint and get hurt in the middle of the road?"
Upon seeing this question, Ye Zhou didn't know what to say. It wasn't his desire to get this weird script anyway. So he just scratched the back of his head in embarrassment.
"If you don't want to answer my question just now, that's fine. But next time remember to be careful."
The village head saw him embarrassed and felt that Ye Zhou was difficult to answer, so the village head stopped asking questions and just reminded Ye Zhou to be careful.
"Get some rest first. Just a moment, I'll get you some food to fill your stomach." The village head rose from his chair and walked out and closed the door again.
Seeing that the village chief had left, Ye Zhou breathed a sigh of relief at being no longer bothered by the questions he was unable to answer.
Although, he knew that what he was dealing with were NPCs, Ye Zhou couldn't contain his feelings because these NPCs acted real like normal humans.
Then Ye Zhou looked at the summoning system to see the information regarding his character in the game.

Looking at his character stats, Ye Zhou was slightly dumbfounded by the comparison of agility stats to power and vitality stats.
He knows that the game allocates a total of 30 basic attributes randomly based on the player's physique in the real world. And when really looking at the stats of his character in the game, Ye Zhou can only say "trash" against this body.
The basic stats themselves consist of [Power] which indicates the player's attack power. Next, [Agility] shows the player's speed in moving, attack speed and dodge speed against attacks. As for [Vitality], it is an indicator of body resistance, both physical defense and magic defense as well as capacity and regeneration of the amount of HP.
While the fixed attribute consists of [Charm] which shows the player's closeness to the NPC. The higher the [Charm] value, the more friendly the NPC's attitude towards players is, which is directly proportional to the appearance of the Quest. [Luck] itself is a player's indicator in terms of luck. The higher the value, the more likely it is to get interesting things in the adventure in the game, for example, about inheritance.
Fixed attributes are attributes that cannot be increased through status points (SP) and can only be raised through a series of hidden quests or rare artifacts.
For derived attributes such as HP, it will not be clearly shown in the status window.
Regarding Bone Root is the quality of the body owned by the character. It also depends on the talent of the body in the real world. However, a player's talent in the game can be improved through a number of methods and resources, it's just that it takes time and abundant resources to improve.
[Bone Root] consists of various ranks from the weakest namely Iron Bone, Bronze Bone, Silver Bone, Gold Bone and Diamond Bone which increases basic stats by +0%, +10%, +20%, +25% and +30%.
Seeing the amount of money and about the weapons listed in the holographic display. Ye Zhou searched his surroundings and found a dagger lying on the wooden table beside him. He guessed that this weapon must be his.
Furthermore, he also found 50 copper coins in the pocket of the pants he was wearing. This game is really tough. (Money: 1 Gold = 10 Silver = 1000 Bronze and 10 bronze = 1 Star Coin)
As for why equipment and money just lay on his body, this was because in this game there was no system inventory. So players are required to find or try as much as possible to get a qiankun (storage) bag or storage ring. However, based on the information contained in the game's official website, this is very difficult to find.
