September 12.
6:00.
After the closed beta qualification was issued, after three days of agonizing waiting, the day of the server opening finally arrived.
According to the tutorial on the official website, Du Mingdao put on his helmet, lay flat on the bed, and closed his eyes.
Speaking of...
Is it really just like this?
However, just when he had this thought in his mind, he quickly saw with his eyes closed that a beam of light passed through the darkness and shone in front of him.
Even though he hadn't opened his eyes yet...
Du Mingdao sat up from the humid incubator and looked around. His dull eyes were gradually replaced by strong shock.
This...
Is this the game world? !
The metal-textured walls and floor tiles, the streamlined hatch are full of science fiction, and the wisps of steam evaporate from his shoulders, taking away his body temperature bit by bit.
Taking a deep breath of the air in the game world, he faintly smelled a bad smell.
Du Mingdao didn't know whether everything in front of him was real.
But the 100% immersion had shocked him so much that he couldn't speak.
This feeling——
It was simply amazing!!!
At this time, the hibernation capsule next door suddenly opened, and a guy with a lizard mouth and dark green scales all over his body sat up from the hibernation capsule.
The moment he met his eyes, Du Mingdao was startled.
"What the hell?! What the hell is this?"
"What the hell..."
"Who the hell are you? NPC???"
"What NPC? I'm a player! ID: Trash Picker Level 99... I was just about to ask you, who the hell are you?"
"You're a trash picker?! I'm sparing you! Damn, are you the new guy who joined the group a few days ago? Why are you so ugly?!"
"You're the ugly one..."
The amber pupils were wide open, and the lizard man was confused, obviously not quite understanding the situation.
But soon, his eyes fell on his scaly dark green skin, and his confused pupils gradually became terrified.
He hurriedly lowered his head, looked left and right, and fumbled around with his claws, his tail twisting with his body, like a gecko falling into a mud pit.
At this moment, his sight suddenly stuck between his legs.
Then, he let out a shrill wail.
"Fuck! Why don't I have that thing!"
Du Mingdao almost vomited blood.
"You look like this, and you're focusing on that thing!"
"I don't have that, I don't have that! Damn! Damn, the dog planner is lying! I can be a lizard man, why can't I open a female account!"
"If you don't want to be a lizard man, let's exchange."
"Get lost."
The hibernation capsule is connected to a body scanning device, which can see your attributes and level. These are all public information on the official website.
Junk Jun stretched out his index finger and raised it on the operation interface, and soon the attribute panel was projected on the screen.
[
ID: Garbage Picker Level 99
Gene Sequence: Alien·Lizardman
Level: LV.0
——Basic Attributes——
Strength: 8
Agility: 7

Intelligence: 2
]
[
Talents:
Cold-blooded (stronger concealment, slow movement in low temperature environments)
Parallelized Feet (stronger endurance, difficulty in operating complex machinery)
Physical Regeneration (stronger recovery, difficulty in increasing the gene sequence level)
]
What the hell?
This attribute is something!
I vaguely remember that it was written on the official website that the attribute baseline value of a normal adult male is 5, fluctuating between ±2.
And he obviously wasn't based on the standard of an adult male. Except for a low intelligence attribute, the other four-dimensional attributes were ridiculously strong.
The key point was that he didn't think he was not smart.
Even if the intelligence panel data was a little low, so what?
It didn't affect his pretense at all!
Realizing this, Garbage Man was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth, and he stopped making noise.
Du Mingdao, who was sitting in the incubator next to him, looked at the lizard man who was grinning there, and asked with concern.
"Are you... okay?"
"Haha, I'm fine! Let's go, let's get out of this room quickly and meet up with other players first! Don't let the administrator wait anxiously!"
As he said that, Garbage Man turned over and jumped out of the incubator.
He found that there was another advantage of the lizard man, that is, he didn't need to wear clothes, because it didn't matter whether he took off his pants or not, and there was no place to cover!
Staring at the lively lizard, Du Mingdao's face was full of weirdness.
At this time, he suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a piece of paper stuck on the guy's butt.
"There's something on your butt."
"Where?"
After being told this, Jun Lazi also felt the foreign body on his butt, so he stretched his claws back.
It was the first time to operate this body and he was not used to it. He scraped the two claws for a long time before finally scraping the paper off.
The paper is waterproof material, so it was not wet.
However, the words written on it were not Chinese, nor any language he knew.
Jun Lazi was confused and scratched his head with his claws.
"What is written on it?"
...
Residents' lobby of the shelter.
The originally spacious space was now filled with new players.
People of all kinds stood here, their faces filled with confusion, surprise, excitement and curiosity.
Before this, almost everyone thought that this so-called "fully immersive virtual reality game" might just be a joke played by a few bored game fans.
Even if they received the helmets sent by the game company, most people were skeptical.
But now, all doubts have disappeared.
If you must find a game that is more realistic than this, I'm afraid it can only be "Earth OL" itself!
When "Garbage Picker Level 99" came out of the room through the automatically opened and closed door, it caused quite a stir.
At first everyone thought he was an NPC, but later they asked and found out that he was also a player, and it was very likely the legendary "hidden profession"!
Bathed in the envious eyes of everyone, Garbage Jun seemed to have put the fact that he didn't have a little brother behind him, and smiled proudly.
Does it matter whether there is that thing?
It doesn't matter.
"Brother, follow me in the future, I will protect you."
Jun Laji patted Brother Dao's shoulder, who was standing next to him, and the latter gave him a speechless look and didn't bother to pay attention to him.
However, the initial panel data was just a little bit stronger.
Du Mingdao, who came out of the room with this guy, also received a lot of attention.
However, unfortunately, his gene sequence was just an ordinary power system, and there was nothing special about it.
While the players in the hall were looking at the two of them, he was also secretly observing other players in the hall.
Except Brother Laji, most of the players seemed to be normal, at least on the surface, there was nothing different from others.
From the physique point of view, they should be mainly power and physical systems, but there are also a small number of perception, agility, and intelligence players.
What surprised Du Mingdao the most was that there were actually two female players here?
One of them was 180cm tall, with a curvy figure that made the shelter uniform bulge out. He should be a strength type.
The other one was a little shorter, probably just over 150cm tall, and ordinary. It was hard to tell what type he was, at least not a strength type.
Du Mingdao was born in civil engineering and has worked for many years. He is very accurate in visual estimation, especially in the assessment of distance and size, which generally does not have too much error.
The two came out of the same room. It seemed that they had some conflicts and their momentum was somewhat confrontational.
"Who is this little guy? Have you been weaned?"
"You! It's amazing that you're tall! Who knows how short you are in real life!"
"Haha, you can say such things. I can see that you are not very old in real life. Are you a primary school student?"
"Haha, what a coincidence. I'm a director in a fashion design company. I'm quite old. Unlike you, you just try to make a presence in the game."
"Haha, just a director. I thought you were the president of a big group. I wonder which company your sister works for?"
"Haha, what do you care!"
Du Mingdao: "..."
He always felt that these two guys were like primary school students...
Of course, it was not just these two who were making noises.
After waiting for so long, the newly entered players were very excited to get the closed beta qualification. They kept talking and looking around. They couldn't rest at all.
Some people banged their heads against the wall, but instead of crying out in pain, they held their heads and giggled.
And this is still relatively normal.
Some people grabbed the players next to them and begged them to slap them, just to try what it felt like to be beaten, so that they would be mentally prepared when fighting monsters later.
Du Mingdao felt his scalp tingling.
Has he entered the game world or been locked up in a lunatic asylum?
When someone took off his pants and was about to shit, or even did something more eye-catching, a majestic voice came from the direction of the main entrance through the resident hall.
"Quiet."
In an instant, everything was quiet.
The majestic voice, as if carrying a special pressure, made the players in the resident hall stop making noise unconsciously, and pairs of eyes subconsciously looked in the direction of the sound.
Du Mingdao was no exception.
Looking at the man standing at the door, his expression suddenly became excited.
NPC!
Opening plot!
This should be the legendary administrator!
Although it was his first time playing this game, he had been following the post "There is a long way to go" on the official website before, so he was quite familiar with the settings in the game.
The other players here were the same, all holding their breath and looking forward to the plot.
When selecting players, Chu Guang would not only refer to the profession filled in on the reservation page, but also refer to the forum's historical speeches, online time and activity, and try his best to exclude those "primary school students" with abnormal brain circuits and the little fools who only know how to argue all day long.
They are more suitable for moving bricks on the construction site, not here.
Looking around at the players in the resident hall, Chu Guang slowly continued to speak in a calm and serious voice.
"Welcome to Shelter 404."
"I am the manager here."
"Code name - Dawn."
