Volume 1 Chapter 7: Game Start

[An: I decided to remove the class and job on the status menu since I realize that it was not suitable for this novel I also correct the 2 chapters that have a status screen part]

==================================

After confirming my starting location, I heard the AI's voice again.

[In a world filled with different races constantly at war, an unexpected apocalypse suddenly arrives, catching everyone unaware of their impending extinction until it's too late. To ensure survival, they unite and join forces to combat the monsters that emerge alongside the apocalypse.]

After finishing hearing the AI's voice introducing the in-game world, the scene suddenly changes, and a CGI video starts to play.

The video begins with a scene of a planet, but suddenly, an obscure part of the planet is engulfed by a dark-colored mist that starts to spread. Simultaneously, as the apocalypse unfolds, various races engage in intense warfare: the Light Camp versus the Dark Camp, Angels versus Demons, Humans battling the Beastmen and Elves simultaneously due to the overwhelming numbers of the Human Race. Human Kings command millions of soldiers to war, while the Queen of the Elves remains under the Tree of Life. Beastmen from different tribes converge in the middle of a prairie, Dwarves meticulously craft various weapons, armor, and siege weapons, Giants awaken from their slumber, Vampires emerge from their coffins, and legions of Demons and Angels emerge from their respective realms.

The scene abruptly shifts, portraying all the races desperately fleeing from the encroaching black mist.

Then, everything abruptly turns blank before my vision is flooded with different worlds.

[Welcome to Apocalypse Online.]

Shortly after, my vision turned completely white, and after a few seconds, a sudden change took place. I found myself lying on a hard, uncomfortable surface, though I generally enjoy lying down indefinitely, comfort is essential. Hence, I quickly stood up before inspecting my surroundings.

In front of me, there's a bright light, while behind me, there's absolute darkness with no light source whatsoever. Strangely, despite the absence of light, the visibility remains akin to daytime—possibly due to one of my skills, such as night vision.

Like anyone in my situation, I instinctively walked towards the source of light. Not long after, I noticed grass and trees ahead, prompting me to hasten my pace. In no time, I reached the entrance, and as I took my first step outside, the sunlight shone on my feet, causing sudden pain. Reacting swiftly, I retracted my feet, recalling that I had chosen the Vampire race, vulnerable to sunlight. Worriedly, I checked my feet, finding them nearly darkened and slightly smoking. Without delay, I began swinging my feet to so that the smoke disperse.

Alice: "Phew~~~"

Thankfully, my feet weren't directly set on fire. Feeling uncertain about my condition and options, I opened my status screen to check my health, as I wasn't aware of the effects of the skills I had purchased.
