Chapter 1: The Three Kingdoms

At noon on July 16, 2043.

Zhao Rui discovered a new game called "Strange Three Kingdoms".

"A virtual reality game with 100% authenticity based on the theme of the Dark Three Kingdoms?"

"Three Kingdoms + Soul-like + Sandbox + RPG + Virtual Reality + MMO... What about this stack of BUFF?"

Zhao Rui was calm and even wanted to laugh. Since the major breakthrough in virtual reality technology, games that use this as a selling point have sprung up like mushrooms after rain. The largest game platform "Star Ocean" will launch more than a dozen new games every week on average.

But people's enthusiasm for virtual reality games has not increased in recent years!

For developers, virtual reality games are difficult to make and costly, and the profit cycle is too long. There are also barriers for players. Some games must be played with customized helmets or even game cabins, and the cost ranges from 30,000 to 20,000 yuan, and as much as several million yuan.

The most important thing is.

The game itself is also hard to describe.

All the big companies have been making big promises under the banner of immersive gaming experience, but the gaming experience they have produced is still a long way from restoring reality. Currently, the best-known single-player games have only achieved 20% of realism at most, and the gaming experience is not good because there are too many bugs.

Massively multiplayer online games?

And 100% restoration?

Are all the manufacturers so bold now?

Aren’t they afraid of being fined for false advertising?

Zhao Rui is a game blogger with hardcore technology, outstanding eloquence, and a small reputation in the circle. He knows all the major game manufacturers and the recently released works, but he has never heard of this new game called "Strange Three Kingdoms".

The homepage of this official website also exudes the temperament of a poor guy who can't afford to hire an artist.

There are only two options: "Appointment for internal testing" and "Game background".

Let's take a look at the background first.

[Welcome to Strange Three Kingdoms! 】

【At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the sky collapsed, the foreign gods invaded, and the indescribable abyss enveloped the land of China. Billions of people fell into terrible disaster dreams and were experiencing billions of painful nightmare reincarnations. 】

【This world is full of terrifying monsters. Even the historical heroes you are familiar with have completely sunk in the endless nightmare reincarnation, or have been completely controlled by the will of the abyss, and have been distorted and transformed into taboo-like terrifying existences. 】

【Although the land of China has been distorted and cracked, there are still a few characters who remain awake and are struggling to fight against the invasion from the abyss and the stars. They may become your powerful partners or your most difficult enemies. 】

【You will assist a great lord from the City of Stars, challenge the heroes who have been transformed into monsters, let them die in the right way, purify this polluted and distorted history, and create myths in this devastated land. 】

【……】

Elemental monsters stitched together!

But it has a bit of soul or Cthulhu style.

As a deep lover of the genre, Zhao Rui casually clicked on a reservation. In fact, as a game anchor, he is not afraid of the game being too bad, but afraid of being bad without characteristics. As long as there is a program effect, he can give it a try.

The reservation was successful.

The game did not announce the specific internal test time.

Zhao Rui did not take it too seriously. He opened the video recording software and started his daily work.

…………

The Land of Stars.

The Academy of Lords of All Worlds.

Hang Yu was on his way to the principal's office.

An eight-sided Rubik's Cube-shaped object floated in front of him.

A voice came from the Rubik's Cube: "The current number of game reservations is 135!"

Hang Yu breathed a sigh of relief: "Well done, it seems that there is no need to worry about not being able to recruit people."

He has been traveling to the City of Stars for twenty years.

This is a great city floating in the gap between the Abyss and the space-time of the Ten Thousand Worlds. Thousands of races from different worlds breed here together, and everyone dreams of entering the Abyss World and becoming a great lord.

The Abyss World is an indescribable dark dimension.

It will corrode and engulf all world planes, distorting their time and space, and causing creatures to be demonized and polluted. For billions of years, the star lords have fought one after another in it, and can barely maintain the balance between the abyss and the real world.

Hang Yu graduated from the Star City Lord Academy with a good score of top 100 a week ago, and obtained the qualification to fight in the abyss and become a lord. After activating the lord qualification, each star citizen will awaken an exclusive abyss plane.

It is not just a pure coincidence.

Or there are other unknown reasons.

Hang Yu found that the abyss world he awakened was actually a dark magic modified version of the Three Kingdoms. According to the measurement of its sinking depth, it has reached an astonishing eternal night layer!

The stars divide the danger of the abyss from low to high into:

The twilight layer, the twilight layer, the lightless layer, the dark evil layer, the eternal night layer, and the forbidden unknown layer.

This Three Kingdoms has entered the eternal night.

It sank too deep.

This not only means a high degree of pollution and demonization, but even time and space have long been distorted and twisted. Most of the creatures in it have fallen into madness, and it is filled with a large number of deep-level terrifying demons and even forbidden evil gods that cannot be described in legends.

Although risk and reward are proportional, the higher the level of the abyss, the more gains can be produced.

But not everyone has the ability to explore the deep abyss.

There are thousands of races from various worlds in the Star City, and there are many who can move mountains and fill the sea with their own strength. After becoming the lord, the servants created by these powerful upper races are also powerful.

And Hang Yu is just a human.

The human race is one of the weakest lower races in the Star City.

In the history of this city for hundreds of millions of years, there has never been a precedent for a human lord to successfully conquer the Eternal Night Abyss, which also led to the failure of the originally agreed investment, and he could only apply for a loan from the college as start-up capital.

Fortunately, there is always a way out.

Hang Yu obtained an abyss relic called "Heavenly Cube" during the awakening ceremony.

This Abyss Relic is a natal item that can be obtained with a very small probability during the awakening process of becoming a Star Lord. It is no different from winning the lottery. Not only that, most Abyss Relics have very little effect in themselves, and can only be used to add icing on the cake, but cannot play a decisive role.

The Heavenly Cube is a special relic.

This relic has never appeared in history, and its grade is completely unknown. It can establish a connection with the other world, summon souls from the other world, grant immortality, and transform into a territory clan.

After many days of debugging, Hang Yu has successfully established a connection with Blue Star, and is ready to let Blue Star players descend into the strange and evil world of the Three Kingdoms by creating an online game.

This is his confidence!

Hang Yu walked to the principal's office.

The space here is comparable to several football fields, with various treasures piled up and shining, and a giant dragon of at least 300 meters lying in the center of countless treasure mountains.

The dragon is covered in dark gold, with three heads and eight wings. Each scale is as big as a basin. Its surface is covered with mysterious patterns and runes, emitting an extremely powerful aura.

This is the principal of the Star Lord Academy.

A Primordial Nether Dragon!

Even in the stars and the abyss where thousands of races stand side by side, the Primordial Nether Dragon is also a top-level superior race.

Principal Long is not only the head of the Lord Academy, but also a super lord of at least level eight. Millions of Nether Dragon people under his command have conquered one abyssal plane after another.

"Have you finally decided to go to the abyss and become a lord?" Principal Long said, "Although your grades are good, there has never been a human lord who can survive in a plane of this depth, and even my race dare not challenge it easily."

Hang Yu nodded: "The student still wants to try."

Principal Long sighed in regret.

An abyss world of at least the Eternal Night level, its distortion and madness are beyond imagination. Not to mention humans as a lower race, even the survival rate of the upper race is not high.

"This is two thousand Abyss Magic Crystals, one thousand of which is the loan you applied for, and the other one thousand is my personal sponsorship to you!" Principal Long did not continue to persuade him, "Take it, please do it according to your ability. If the development is not going well, you can return to the academy at any time. We will write a letter of recommendation for you so that you can seek refuge with a reliable lord."

"Thank you, Principal! Students must do their best!"

"Go! May the will of the stars be with you!"

Hang Yu was satisfied with the start-up funds of two thousand magic crystals and the lord token to enter the abyss world. He immediately said goodbye to the principal and left the academy to the teleportation tower.

It's finally about to start!

Hang Yu was a little excited at the moment.

Once teleported into the abyss, it is not easy to return.

But he still did not hesitate, and started the teleportation at the first time and descended to his own territory.
