Scientists were constantly looking through all the gathered data to see if there ever have been the case of similar gene appearing in past.
Main head wanted to perform many experimental studies on his body to see if he developed any resistance or some type of super ability but he knew that it will have to wait until Alpha can recover from all this.
[ Player Avatar have glitched… ]
[ Locating Player… ]
[ … ]
Evan who had been devoured into the darkness felt a light reaching out to him to wake him up from slumber which felt much like drowning.
"Go, put the Alpha into the recovering liquid tube."
Many soldiers came forward at the order of head scientist and picked Alpha before putting him in the pod filled some slime like liquid.
[ Status- Recovering. ]
Evan felt a great soothing feeling and warmth as though he is bathing in the immortal medicine, though he didn't know that would feel like but this was closest thing he could felt to that imagination.
[ Player ID have failed… ]
[ Trying synchronization of player status in new avatar… ]
[ Avataer have rejected most benefits of being player due to not being compatible… ]
[ Merging of Class and Inherited skill is in progress. ]
When Evan have just recovered some of his sense, he heard these words ringing in his head in robotic tone which was oddly similar to the game voice when he was drawing the class.
Evan when trying to move felt a resistance which was hard and his body felt much weaker than when he remember it to be.
[ Synchronization have completed… ]
[ Please select your initial gene ability which is generated randomly. ]
Just then blue virtual interface appeared in front of him, his eyes were little fuzzy for initial few minutes which clear later on.
That blue screen became more easy to see as Evan read the content of it.
Not much information was on it except for a pop up about choosing between the randomly drawn initial genetic ability.
Unable to move or see outside that white room, he looked at the virtual interface and thought of option to choose from.
[ Choice 1- Photosynthesis- This genetic ability is extracted from special plant which would mutate your cells to absorb solar energy to survive instead of food. But it is limited to surviving. ]
[ Choice 2- Limit Extension- This genetic ability is extracted from Rage bear monster and it will allow you to exert 2x of strength while still expending low level of energy. There is chance that it may make changes to your appearance to become more like bear this ability originated from. ]
[ Choice 3- Minerals shot- This ability originated from Earth Horn Wolf. It let you absorb minerals from earth then shoot it from your hand which is mutated under this ability's influence. Host can revert hand to normal after using it. ]
'So, what should I choose? Photosynthesis is just too normal and would not provide any combat capability. Limit extension was a solid choice but with his current pathetic strength, it's of no use. It all left me with last choice of Mineral Shots, it's like inbuilt gun in my body and if it can improve later on then it a good enough option.' Evan made a rational judgement based upon what he can infer from his present knowledge like the mentioned names of monsters in the given choices.
Monsters did sacred him a bit but it was all a aspect of game that make it interesting and if not for this, then it would be just copy image of normal life.
Combat power was best thing to have to gain momentum in early game to level up even more.
Evan made the second glance over the choices before still standing with his earlier made decision of going with Choice 3.
[ Do you confirm that you want to choose Choice 3? ]
[ Yes ] [ No ]
Evan was feeling at edge, but despite that he proceeded with 'Yes' command in his head.
[ Merging the random drawn genetic ability in host… ]
A warm and comforting sensation slowly entered his body but in some time it began to turn into constant pain of body belts torn and stitched back. This pain was too deep and intense that his body was overwhelmed by it no time.
10 minutes later…
[ Merging is successful, initial skills related to genetic ability would be unlocked at meeting certain requirements… ]
[ Awakening special or evolving skill can only be achieved through random box which is obtainable only through high rating in hidden or very high difficulty grade tasks… ]
Evan felt that his body have instinive reaction to something and it was something good but it was so weak of feeling that one could ignore it as their hallucinations.

Evan seeing the details felt that he is thrusted into some kind of complex puzzle because How is he a npc instead of being labelled as the player and why was version 1.0 is still labeled with time countdown to be released.
'What the hell is happening?' Evan screamed in his mind.
