"Ugh, my head hurts."
As soon as I opened my eyes, what greeted my sight made me stop my actions. After staring blankly for a few moments, I uttered to myself.
"That's not the ceiling of my room! Where am I?"
I immediately looked around and observed my surroundings. What greeted my eyes was definitely not my own room. First, it was very messy with all kinds of things scattered around. For example, I can see stacks of finished cup noodles, empty cans of beer, used clothes, and many more. Another thing I noticed is the use of Chinese characters in the equipments present inside the room.
Seeing my surroundings, my brain started working furiously, thinking of how I arrived at this place. After a while, I remembered my conversation with the man with the galaxy head.
"I thought that was just a dream. Did I really arrive in the world of RSSG?"
Just as I thought of that, I felt a sharp burst of pain in my head and I immediately blacked out.
///
The instant I fainted, a memory that wasn't mine suddenly intruded my mind. The suddenness of it made my brain crash which resulted in me blacking out.
I don't know how long it was before I regained consciousness. While I was unconscious, it felt that there is a batch of memories, which absolutely didn't belong to me, present in this brain. It was like I was experiencing a very long dream. I 'watched' it and learned about some knowledge and my situation.
In this collection of memories, my name was Zhao Yun. Zhao Yun was a 20-year old male. From what I learned from the batch of memories in my brain, it's been almost three months since this body's parents died in a car accident. Their vehicle was run over by a speeding truck, resulting in their death. This made the original owner of this body incredibly depressed. He stopped his studies and wallowed himself in misery.
Zhao Yun died due to depression as well as alcoholic overdose allowing me to take over this body. Or maybe, I was reborn as Zhao Yun, however I only managed to regain my previous life's memories at this point of time.
'Well, it's not that important for me. I need to find the official release date of God's Domain.'
I immediately went towards the laptop found at the table beside my bed. After turning it on, I searched anything related to God's Domain, from the official discussions to rumors about the game. After a while of researching, I found out that God's Domain was still on its Beta Testing phase. From my understanding of the discussions online, it would most likely released by next year.
'So I still have a year before the game starts. I need to make plans in order to quickly gain advantage over the others as soon as the game starts.'
Frowning slightly, I thought of what to do during this year which would bring benefits in my gaming career in God's Domain.
After an hour of planning, I made a rough plan on how to spend my time. The most important thing for me to do is to train. I would need to strengthen my body as well as learn how to fight. With my Super Growth and Hyper Regeneration, I would be able to train my body quite quickly. Well, as long my sickness called laziness don't act up. Additionally, the food produced in the Space would surely be more nutritious than those produced in the outside world. This would also contribute to my training.
Fortunately, in this day and age, body training was quite widespread. Some people even call this the "Age of Exercise." This was the result of breakthrough in knowledge made by scientists. By strengthening the human body, one would be able to prolong one's lifespan, increasing the average lifespan of a person to a hundred years old. There is a lot of available knowledge on how to improve one's body in the internet.
The second thing I need to do is familiarize myself with the VR world. Although God's Domain was not released yet, there are a lot of other VR games available in the market. Of course, it was not as awesome as God's Domain.
By playing those games, I would gain some experience in fighting monsters and various game mechanics like how experts properly use their game skills. Additionally, I would even be able to earn money. For better results, I would need to get my hands on some nutrient fluids as well as some equipment needed to further train myself. These things would cost a lot of money. Although this body's parents left a huge sum of money, I doubt that the money left behind will be enough.
'Well, before proceeding with those plans, first, I need to clean this mess.'
Due to a few months of not being cleaned, there were a lot of things needed to be done. There was a lot of accumulated dust all over the house as well as a mountain of clothes waiting at the laundry. Seeing my workload, I feel some of my strength leaving my body, thinking how troublesome it is to clean all of these.
After two hours of cleaning, my house looked relatively clean. Regarding those clothes, I plan to send those to a laundry shop.
Afterwards, I went outside to get some groceries. Among the things which I brought from the market, the most noticeable is the large number of variety of fruit and vegetables. Those things would be quite useful for the Spatial Farm.
As soon as I entered my house, I immediately entered the Space with the things I bought. The space scanned the things I brought with me and prompted.
[Discovery of new plants. Analyzing data of saplings. It can now be purchased in the shop]
[Discovery of new plants. Analyzing data of saplings. It can now be purchased in the shop]
...
[Discovery of new plants. Detecting possible edible fruit and wine. Disadvantage, yield is low. Analyzing data of saplings. It can now be purchased in the shop]
[Due to the discovery of new plants, you have risen to level three. With your higher level, the farm's growth rate has risen to elevenfold.]
After hearing the prompt, I immediately planted watermelons in the field. I chose watermelons as it was the one that would generate the highest amount of gold among the plants available when sold to the shop. Even though radish would be able to make the Space level up faster, there are other ways to level the Space. What I need is a large amount of gold for future upgrades.
I watched as the Space planted the seeds all around the field, amazed at the magical sight of it being done automatically. After watching it done, I exited the Space and searched for a pen and a notebook. I immediately wrote the details of what I remembered of the story. This proved to be quite a hard task as it has been a few months already since I last read that story.
The resulting list looked somewhat like this.
1. Shi Feng, the MC, travelled 10 years into the past, few days before the release of the game.
2. He is based in White River City of Star-moon kingdom
3. Pure Agility build is the best for melee jobs in the early game
4. He completed a Hell level Dungeon and met Gentle Snow
5. He sold armors in the auction house and earned a large sum of money as Black Flame
6. Unknown players with potential
• Cola
• Fire Dance
• Violet Cloud
• ???
7. Whetstone would be largely needed sometime later in the game
8...
I also listed other things I remembered from various novels I read. After doing all that, I started doing push-ups, sit-ups, and other forms of basic training inside the Space. The reason I did that inside the Space is that, the environment in it is greatly beneficial to the body, which would make my training go smoother.
