[Analyzing profession…]

[Analyzing the feasibility of the player’s plans…]

[The player’s description plan is feasible. Congratulations to the player for obtaining a liberal profession.]

Lu Yuan smiled when he heard that the profession was successfully created.

The idea of creating a liberal profession came from a novel he read many years ago.

Although this profession did not initially have any professional skills, it allowed the player to learn the specialties and skills of all the other professions.

[The liberal profession character has been successfully established. Player, please draw your character’s talent.]

[As the player is in the liberal profession, the player does not have any basic professional talents. To compensate the player, the player’s draw of the character talent will be fixed within Sole Divine talents.]

“F*ck, something like this is possible?” Lu Yuan was both surprised and delighted.

There were three types of talents in the Apocalypse. The first type was the racial talent that came from race selection, for example, the Human Race’s Wisdom Heart.

The second type was professional talent. When players chose a profession, they would receive an initial professional talent. Apart from that, they could only obtain talents via exploration in the game.

The last type was character talent. Each player could only have one, and they could only obtain it when they created their character. Apart from that, there was no other way to obtain a character talent.

No matter what talent it was, it would range within C-SSS level according to its strength. Above SSS would be the Sole Divine talents, which mostly only ever appeared on NPCs.

In the three years of his previous life in the game, other than the player who had obtained the Human Race inheritance, no other player had obtained a Sole Divine talent.

Although Lu Yuan lacked a professional talent at the moment, in return, he could 100% obtain a Sole Divine level character talent. It could be said that he had made a huge gain.

He had earned a lot!

“Draw character talent,” Lu Yuan said after calming himself down.

[Talent drawing…]

[Congratulations, the player has obtained a Sole Divine talent: Unlimited Skill Upgrade.]

[Talent drawing complete. Please give your character a name.]

“Lu Yuan.” Lu Yuan did not hesitate and gave his character his real name.

All of the characters in the Apocalypse were real people. If one gave themselves strange names, it would affect their favorability with the NPCs as well as their ability to accept quests.

As such, Lu Yuan chose his real name directly.

As for hiding his identity so that he would not be targeted in real life due to being in the limelight in the game?

Lu Yuan had never thought of that, and he felt that such an assumption would be meaningless.

The World of Apocalypse was incredibly big, and by the time he was noticed by someone observant and conscientious, the world and the game would have merged, and his strength in the game would have been brought along with him into reality.

He would then have the ability to protect himself.

After finishing all the basic selections, the game began to count down.

[Ding!]

[You have been randomly assigned to novice village 1376. Wishing you a happy game.]

As the light flowed, Lu Yuan opened his eyes and found himself on a street.

At the moment, the street was filled with players.

These players looked around curiously.

“Damn, isn’t this too realistic?”

“As expected, the realism is 100%. The Apocalypse Company was not bragging.”

“I simply have high praises for everything, this is simply crushing all the games on the market!”

“What are your talents?”

…

The entire street was bustling with activity.

As the world’s first holographic online game, everything in it aroused the curiosity of the players.

Unlike the players who were making a fuss over nothing, Lu Yuan calmly stood where he was and silently called out the attribution panel in his heart.

[Name]: Lu Yuan

[Race]: Human

[Race Talent]: Wisdom Heart (no level)

[Professional Talent]: None

[Character Talent]: Unlimited Skill Upgrade (Sole Divine talent)

[Individual Attributes]: Strength 10, Physique 10, Agility 10, Intelligence 10, Perceptiveness 10, Charm 19

[Faction]: Orderly Neutral

[Profession]: Level 0 liberal profession

[HP]: 100

[MP]: 100

[Skill Points]: None

[Attribute Points]: None

[Status]: Intact

[Professional Skills]: None

[Individual Skills]: None

[Specialties]: None

[Evaluation]: As someone with the liberal profession, you do not have any professional skills, nor do you have any outstanding tendencies. Your attributes are very average. The only advantage you have is that you are a little handsome. I suggest that you go to the city for a walk. Perhaps some noble ladies will like you…

Looking at the panel, Lu Yuan clicked on the talent introduction.

[Wisdom Heart]: As a human, you do not have any advantage in terms of strength. However, your brain and genes that have developed well enough have given you a strong learning ability and sufficient wisdom.

[Unlimited Skill Upgrade]: You can upgrade your skills twice a day. You can break through the level limit of the skills.

…

His attributions were very average.

Apart from charm, all of them were 10.

This was a characteristic of the liberal profession. Since they had no profession, their attributes would not be biased, everything would seem very ordinary.

However, when Lu Yuan saw the introduction of his Sole Divine talent, he could not help but hold his breath. He knew that the Sole Divine skill would be very powerful, but he did not expect it to be so powerful.

He could level up his skills twice a day, and most importantly, he could break through the skills’ level limit.

One should know that most of the skills in the World of Apocalypse were at most level 10, and it would take at least half a month to train a normal skill to its maximum level.

On top of that, this required the player to have enough stamina to continuously use his skill for the entirety of the half a month period mentioned above.

Meanwhile, Lu Yuan only needed five days to max out each skill with his talent. He could even break through the skill’s level limit indefinitely.

“As long as I live long enough, even an ordinary fireball will probably be more powerful than some rare skills when I strengthen it to over level 100, right?” Lu Yuan could not help but sigh in amazement. As he looked at the crowded street, he understood the first thing he had to do.

Learn skills.

Then level them up to the max.

With the memories of his previous life, Lu Yuan knew more about the novice village’s missions than anyone else.

He did not go to the sardined village chief like the other players. Instead, he turned and walked towards the north of the village.

All the NPCs for the basic missions were gathered in the center of the novice village. As Lu Yuan walked further and further, he met fewer and fewer players.

Soon, there were not many people on the large street.

He went straight to a farmer’s house.

“Excuse me, is Uncle Andre at home?” Lu Yuan stood outside the courtyard and shouted.

“What’s up? Are you an Other-world Human?” Soon, a middle-aged man wearing a straw raincoat with a tiger skin apron around his waist opened the door.

Uncle Andre looked at Lu Yuan warily and asked him about his background.

This was the ability of all NPCs in the Apocalypse Continent, they could tell the difference between players and native humans.

“Uncle Andre, I learned from my teacher that you are a great thief. I want to learn the skills of a thief from you,” Lu Yuan said sincerely.

“Your teacher is?” Andre frowned.

“Norma, she asked me to come,” Lu Yuan said.

Andre had a sole hidden mission.

Only players with the thief profession had the chance to receive the hidden mission from him because only thieves could learn his inheritance skill.

Lu Yuan happened to know the whole flow of the mission as well as Andre’s background. The Norma that Lu Yuan had mentioned was a Half-elf, Andre’s lover during his younger days..
