Ughwaaaaaa
The first thing i did when the full dive ended was let out a mega yawn and stretch my whole body.
I mean i have been laying down for a full 12 hours straight without moving after all, as comfy as this model is there just such joy in being able to move about.
Doffing my clothes and jumping into the shower to hose off the accumulated sweat, making use of my home facilities.
Next up Food!
Practically running out the door as fast as my legs could carry me to the nearest source of food to fill my belly.
Alrighty we've got just under 12 hours before we can log in again, that gives me time to eat twice, and plenty of time to dream dive, so i can learn to become the best crafter i can be in the game.
*ding ding*
Huh
Pulling out my phone, at the sound of an e-mail being received.
My pace slowed to a walk as i read the e-mails content

You've survived your first day of play in our new game, did you enjoy. Well if you didn't we the admin team are sure to make your play time very exhaustive. Aim for the top, afterall we're adding a bonus for the top 100 players in light of how weak willed so many of our chosen beta testers turned out to be.
All the best, in the coming days of calamity

Tch
Those sadistic admins, i can practically hear them laughing their backsides off at all of us "chosen" testers and what's with this offering up a prize to the top hundred, i mean if everyone tries any harder i just know the players are going to start dropping like flies, well i mean aside from any with an overly cautious or non-combat focused job choice like mine who will survive just by not joining the majority of the fights.

Puhaaaaaaah
Great my belly is full of fried chicken, all i want now is to rest and digest this lump of protein sitting in my gut.
Perfect scenario for a dream dive.
Once back home, i switched over from my game server setting to my personal desktop mode
Jumping back into the console, and initiated the startup sequence.
But this time rather than a live dive, this was a dream dive the minute the program booted up to the home screen i was already asleep irl
This type of diving is great because while dreaming i have full control over what happens just like a lucid dream, mix that with the connection to my rig and i have access to practically all of the accumulated mass of human knowledge through online public libraries.
First up is going to be books on early human history all the way up to the medieval ages i think.
Given the amount of time i have in this dream dive till i wake up unless my brain shorts out from the knowledge I'm gonna try cramming into it, i should be able to amass quite a wealth of techniques i can use when i get back to Elysium to make my life there easier.
Let's see, ancient era... Egyptian... Babylonian... Greece... Zhou China...
Let's start with these for early pottery, and earthenware building methods
Next up will be copper, bronze, and iron smelting, forging, and crafting
Then since it's absolutely essential would be herbology, horticulture, cooking, and culinary arts/tools
Lastly would be martial arts, and since it's a dream dive i can even link it to a combat sim program where i can fight like i was in that ai controlled world from that movie, man how cool would that be to be trained by fighting against the one, and the prophet at the same time.
Last up i should also get used to virtually handling my new heavier style equipment, since moving from stone to copper, or even iron will totally have a different feel to it.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The hours passed and finally i woke up
*Yawn*
huh 9 hours passed that slowly huh?
Man i sure wish we had these babies back when i was in school could you imagine getting to study for like an hour in a dream and retain the knowledge for class the next day!
But anyways only a few hours to go before i go back.
I should get in one more shower, and meal for sure
The rest of the time i could browse online, but im sure the dev site is going crazy with all the players who were killed, and those still living looking for hints.
But that's not my playstyle at all, the most fun of a new game is finding all that stuff out for yourself.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And so ends my first day IRL since the launch of Elysium, with the timer to the unlocking of my account counting down, i lay there once again in my gaming pod.
Flush with knowledge from my study session, armed to the teeth with all new tricks i can try and make reality in game, a body fully recharged, rested and fed.
Wait for me otherworld i am on my way
