"What the heck?!" Shen couldn't help but curse.
But as soon as his words were finished, a lot of information suddenly pops up.
*Notice*
-Player 'Kas Shen' will have a time limit of (1)year to prepare himself for the upcoming apocalypse.
-In order for the player to gain as much train as possible, he will have 12 hours of his daily life taken away from him every day for the purpose of going to the future to experience what will happen after the one year period has ended.
-Everything is up to the player whether he will survive or not.
-Due to the player delaying his acceptance, he will now only have 10 hours 24 minutes and 33 seconds to spend today.
-The player is advised to pick a weapon for him to use.
-The player will be transferred within 5 seconds... 4...
"Wha... WAIT!!" Shen started to panic due to the suddenness of the situation, whether it is a prank or something else, it's better to hold on to something.
3...
"I SAID WAITT!!!" Shen seeing the notice felt a little frightened, it's all good if it's actually just a prank, but if something mysterious really happen and he has nothing prepared, then, all that will await him is doom.
2...
Shen kept looking around but all he can see are used clothes, used bowl, spoon and fork, and chopsticks. A really poor house indeed.
1...
Shen's eyes widen as he tries to reach for whatever he can.
0...
*Good luck player, you'll need it.*
Shen saw the notification one last time as a blinding glow shone in front of him; "F**CKKKKKKKKKKKKK YOUUUUUUUU!!!!"
Shen's eyes are currently closed due to the blinding light. Shen slowly opens his eyes as it gradually gets used to the light and as soon as his eyes open slightly, he saw something extremely weird.
"Where... where am I?"
Shen looks around but only saw rubles of rocks and ruined buildings covered in green moss and vines, there's even some with trees growing in it.
"Hello?!" The first thing he did is a shout.
Shouting would definitely be a good idea if someone is actually around, but it can also be bad as if that someone actually has bad intention.
As soon as Shen's voice faded, the ground started to rumble slightly.
Shen: "Huh?"
Shen looks down and felt that the shaking is coming from below him.
"Not good..." By instinct, Shen moves out of his spot.
A sudden boom from the location where Shen stood earlier sounded, and there, Shen saw something he had never seen in his life. A huge beast actually popped out of the ground.
But in Shen's vision, he can also see something else.
Rock Worm Lv. 12
"This... is a dream right?" Shen couldn't help but put a jokingly smile.
"Swwwshhh." The Rock Worm actually has eyes that are looking at Shen's direction.
Somehow, the Rock Worm looks like a centipede without the legs but it has four huge fangs with razor-sharp spikes.
Due to the events suddenly unfolding in his eyes, Shen couldn't help but feel... nothing...
"This... is really a dream... right? I need to wake up..." Shen spoke as he pinches his cheek hard; "Ouch!"
"If this is real... then..." At this moment, Shen's whole body started to calm down; "It's just like a game."
The next thing that Shen does is; "Bag! Items! Inventory!"
A window appear in front of Shen not blocking the view in front of him, and there, he saw two items.
Name: Wooden Chopsticks(Main Weapon)
Attack: 8~12
Level: 1
Rarity: Artifact (Orange)
Set effect: (2/2)
- Additional +5 Attack power
Name: Wooden Chopsticks(Offhand Weapon)
Attack: 6~8
Level: 1
Rarity: Artifact (Orange)
Set effect: (2/2)
- Additional +5 Attack power
"..." For the first time in his life, Shen actually possessed an artifact rate weapon. But right now, it's not even worth celebrating for.
"I should've grabbed the fork..." Shen spoke silly, but then looks at the Rock Worm.
"Appraise!" With his knowledge and experience from playing virtual reality games, Shen tried to appraise the monster like how he does in the games.
*Notification*
-Your appraisal skill is too low and can only detect minor characteristics.
*Rock Worm*
-Does not eat meat. It only eats rocks.
Shen reading this felt a little elated: "Then I'm safe right?"
"Swwshhh!" But just at this moment, the Rock Worm made its move as it dashes towards Shen.
"F*ck!!" Shen immediately runs away; "It doesn't eat meat, but that doesn't mean it wouldn't kill me!!!"
Seeing Shen fleeing for his life, the Rock Worm also increases its phase, but due to Shen always taking exercises in the morning, his build is actually good, more of that of a fitness builder.
"Swwssshhh!" Unable to kill its target immediately, the Rock Worm is growing impatient.
Shen kept jumping from one rock to another as he desperately tries to run away. But out of nowhere, a notification appears again.
*Daily Quest*
-Kill at least 20 monsters.
Quest Progress: (0/20)
Quest Reward: (Newbie Box)
Quest Failure: (One of the items you're wearing will permanently disappear)
Time limit: 10 hours 18 minutes and 24 seconds
"F*ck! Yeah! Just keep making it worst!" Shen curses as he desperately escapes. Right now, Shen's mind is chaotic even though he's calm.
The things he's thinking about is how to survive, what to do next, if there are other people alive, and how to level up.
Shen then felt something is weird when he's nearing a building. The sound of the Rock Worm chasing him actually stopped. Shen then looks behind and saw that the Rock Worm is actually slowly backing away.
"Kzssszzzz"
A sound of something echoes inside the building. Shen slowly turns his head back to the front and saw two red round eyes glowing from the darkness.
"That..." Shen felt speechless.
The Rock Worm's name is glowing red due to the level-gap between him and the monster, but in front of him is a name that's in green, which mostly means it's on the same level as he is.
Killer Ant (Worker) Lv. 3.
"Eh? The Rock Worm is afraid of an ant? A p*ssy, hahaha." Shen felt elated again. But after that, Shen realizes something: "But... ants don't go alone..."
As soon as he spoke of those words, Shen looks around and saw more round red eyes staring at him and the Rock Worm.
"F*CK!" Shen made a run for it again, and this time, he instinctively ran towards the Rock Worm.
It's a typical strategy in the game, where you`ll pass the agro of the monsters chasing you to a stranger that you can pass by.
Seemingly knowing Shen's intention, the Rock Worm also made its escape by burrowing into the ground again.
"Zhhshhh!!!" But before it could, an ant actually grasped it by the middle of its body that who knows where it came from.
Shen ignores the Rock Worm's cries as he continues his escape. Shen kept looking around as he escapes and notices that the Ants are crawling out of the rocks.
"This whole place... is it's home?! The Anthill?! It's gotta be the ant city now!" Shen desperately moves around and find it hard to actually move away than when he was being chased by the rock worm.
Shen looks behind and saw the Rock Worm is fighting back as it slams its gigantic body and tail towards the ants.
But just at this moment, Shen finds himself in another dilemma. There is another breed of monsters in front of him, and these things are actually going straight towards the ants.
Rock Termites(Worker) Lv. 2
"Tszzzzzt!!!"
"Kzzszsttt!!!"
All of the ants rushing towards Shen actually changes their target towards the Termites.
"That... A territorial War?" Shen felt slightly relieved as he moves towards a rubble of rocks that formed into a small hill, hiding his body in the cracks.
"Let's observe for now..." Shen spoke lightly as he looks at the situation unfolding in front of him.
Right now, Although Shen isn't in a perfectly safe spot, he's feeling a little happy. If he was to be placed in a single territory location, he would've most probably been dead already.
Shen then did something that should've been free. Checking all of the things that he could do.
In a whispering tone, Shen spoke: "Status? Ability? Skills?"
As soon as he finishes his words, two windows appeared.

Shen looks at it as and sighs: "It's like playing a game without any story... there's no guide nor tutorial..."
Shen then moves to the next ones: "Inventory, Items, Character."
Another two windows appeared.
In the inventory, there's nothing to be seen as it's all empty then below it, there's actually the currency which looks like gold. In his character window, he saw his own body with a few slots equipped by items.
All of his gears a white, which means it is mostly basic or what players call as common, but there are two orange things which are his two chopsticks.
Shen then remembers something and looks at the buildings around: "Is... this really the future? The future of that wicked World?"
Although Shen finds his World despicable but knowing that people had died in the future, he couldn't help but feel saddened.
"I want to survive... no... I will survive!"
