Chapter 1182 The Players Arrive

Whoosh!

Feeling as if he'd been staring at a multitude of colors for minutes upon end, a man that had both dark brown hair and eyes immediately let out a wide sigh of relief the moment his surroundings changed...

Only to feel a wave of nausea hit him a few seconds later.

"...Urgh." Trying his best to not let the nausea get the better of him, it took the greater part of a minute for the man to eventually recover from the sensation, letting out a low sigh after the feeling of nausea was gone.

Taking in a few deep breaths after that, the man then began to look at his current surroundings in earnest.

"So, this is Greater Beyond, huh? They definitely improved the graphics compared to the beta."

With the name 'Tianshen01' hovering above his head, the man continued to admire the sights in front of him, only to then proceed moving his body according to a few set movements he had in mind.

"Not only that, but they've even improved the game's controls compared to the beta," murmured the man in slight disbelief, gradually pushing his body to its utmost limits. "I don't even feel any latency between my thoughts and my actions anymore."

"I've heard that the company got the most feedback on its latency." Just as those words left the man's mouth, a familiar voice to the man began to sound from beside him, prompting him to turn around in response.

"Belial!" Grinning at the sight of a familiar name, Tianshen let out a bit of laughter, only to then frown as a thought popped up in his mind. "Don't tell me I was the only one who experienced nausea from that startup screen."

"You're not," replied Belial, slightly shuddering as he recalled the bombardment of colors he had to endure. "Pretty sure almost everyone felt nausea from that."

"In fact, while I was making my way to where you were, I saw a few people succumb to it," continued the burly man, pointing at a place slightly far away from where they stood.

Looking at the place Belial was pointing at, Tianshen was soon greeted by the sight of some people kneeling on the ground, with most of them retching from the nausea they felt.

"You think the company intentionally did it?" Watching those people for a bit more, Tianshen eventually returned his gaze back to Belial as he asked a question.

Quickly going through them to obtain a bit more information regarding their current situation, Belial soon nodded in understanding as he closed all but one of his screens not long after.

"I'm guessing you have a rough idea of what to do now?" Glancing at the remaining screen Belial left open, Tianshen went ahead and asked him with both curiosity and excitement.

"More or less," said the man in response with a slight shrug. "The planet we chose is the same as the closed beta. As for where we are... we're currently in a village named Daffors Village."

"In terms of what it could offer us, it has all of the basics needed to get started."

"As for enemies we could face to get XP, there's the wilderness outside the village, as well as a dungeon named Cave of Beginnings just a few hundred meters away from the village."

"What's the minimum level to enter the dungeon?" asked Tianshen, reining in his excitement for the meantime.

"Level 5," replied Belial. "But that's just to unlock Easy."

"Eh. We'll save the higher difficulties for later," said Tianshen in response, to which Belial soon nodded in agreement.

"So... gear ourselves up first before heading out to the wilderness? Then, try the dungeon after that?"

"Pretty much." Belial nodded, expanding the map he brought up for them to both look at. "Here's the village's smithy."

"...A bit of a journey, I see." Committing the part of the map Belial was pointing at to memory, Tianshen soon nodded at his words as the two began to make their way towards the smithy they've agreed to head to.

Though, just as they had arrived at the end of the street they were on, an inconspicuous building soon caught both of their attention.

"Say, Belial..."

"Wasn't the smithy that way?"

"..."
