1 The beginning
[ Welcome to a different space].
A mechanical sound was heard, cold and merciless.
Where am I, how did I get here?
Those were questions that all the people asked themselves the moment they regained consciousness.
Among them, Illios opened his pair of eyes somewhat surprised.
"This is..."
He looked around.
What comes into view is a dark space, with absolutely nothing in sight except his body.
A virtual panel with a faint glow in front of it is clearly visible.
[ From this moment on, all people will be reborn in a new universe. ]
[ You will fight for territory. And you will dominate in this vast new universe. ]
[ The strong have a chance to become gods here. And attain eternal life, while the weak can only kneel at the feet of the strong. Fight to survive... ]
Illios watched silently until a minute later.
New sources emerge.
[ So let's start first with the rules ]
[ 1. Each person can choose different kinds of perks in the Universal System store in exchange for universal points ]
[ 2. You can get universal points in various mini-games during the grace time or in the chosen dimension ]
[ 3. The grace time given to hosts is 60 days, after that time they must choose a dimension to transmigrate to ]
[ So let's start here. ]
---
[ Starting up ]
[Ding! The system is loading! ]
[Ding! System started successfully! ]
"Fuck, so I crossed over to a new world!", Illios was slightly shocked by this situation.
It was quite a surprise, as he had been reading multiple Chinese novels about rebirths and systems.
It is fortunate that life had hit him hard enough to gain enough adaptive skills.
Different sources appeared in his view.
"Let's see, as far as I see, you can choose different tricks..., huh? My eyes don't lie?" Illios rubbed his eyes several times to verify that he wasn't hallucinating.
[Bodies ]
[Bloodlines ]
[ Creature Eggs]
[ Constitutions]
[ Supernatural Talents]
[ Auxiliary systems ]
[ ??? ][ ??? ]
[ Balance: 0 u/p ]
"Wow, Auxiliary Systems, is that what I think it is?" Although all the tabs had unbelievable names, as an avid reader of oriental novels, he knew that the word "System" denoted the greatness of the protagonist.
Illios, containing his excitement, quickly turned to the Auxiliary Systems tab. This tool allows you to choose your own powers, or what are commonly called "Golden Fingers" in those novels.
What he saw stunned him
[ Auxiliary Systems:
—[ Evolution systems ]
—[ Martial arts system ]
—[ Lord's system ]
—[ Divine dominion system ]
—[ Training system (Pets) ]
—[ Multiplier System ]
—[ Critical System ]
—[ Crypto System ]
- *Note: All auxiliary systems are divided into levels from 0 to 6 being the highest].
Of course, there were many other awesome systems ready to be discovered, but the important thing was how to obtain them. For that, you obviously needed Universal Points.
"But how do I earn that?"
Containing his anxiety, Illios went to check the other tabs, among which were:
[ Inventory ][ Universal Chat ][ Personal ] [ Dimensions ]
Excluding the store he immediately chose the moment he could handle the interface, illios entered Universal Chat out of curiosity and this he saw:
"Oh my god, what the hell is this, where am I?"
"This is real, did I really cross over, this is too unbelievable!"
"Hey everyone, check out the store! There's everything, even systems like the ones in the novels!"
After the last guy said that in the chat, there was a pause and then:
"OMG, I'm going to make a god, everyone worship me and follow me!"
"Hey, the guy at the top, don't you know we all have the same chance?"
"Yeah, that guy's an idiot, but... Haven't you noticed that we don't have names?"
"Oh, yeah. I've seen that, so can't we call ourselves whatever we want? From now on, I'll call myself Batman."
"Ha, ha, ha. Then I'll call myself Joker. Uh-huh."
So, the chat started in a big frenzy of nicknames and ridiculous names just to lighten the tension and ignore reality. Obviously, not everyone was so mentally fragile and some got serious about this topic.
"Hey everyone, do we speak the same language or is this divided by region?"
"I don't know, I haven't seen any other language besides English."
"English? Obviously, the chat is in Spanish."
"Spanish? Puff, garbage. This is in Portuguese."
"Don't bother. First say your countries of origin to verify who we are."
"United States."
"Canada."
"Spain."
"Brazil."
"China."
"Wait, what, a Chinese guy? What's he doing here and why does he understand us?"
"Hey, that's disrespectful."
"Yeah, racist +1."
"+2."
"Did you call me a racist, me? Puff you sure don't read many novels from your region."
"Shut up, yours do those things too."
"What a stupid fight I'm watching. "
"x2"
"x3"
Seeing that the conversation was straying from the main topic, Illios decided to head over to check the inventory. Usually they always give you a starter pack or something.
There he saw multiple boxes and in the first one, he saw a gift. It looked like a box with blue ribbons and it glowed slightly.
"Does this even have special effects in it? I wonder if the glow and color have something to do with the contents?" wondered Illios. There was no way to check this now, so he set about opening it.
[ Want to open a gift package for beginners? ]
When you click accept, you got the following:
[ You got: Universal Points: 100, ticket to redo a mission, a bottle of energy water. ]
Universal points can be of great use in the initial stage to buy necessary items and upgrades.
The ticket to redo a mission is important in case of failure anywhere.
However, seeing the bottle of energy water, Illios wondered if it had any special effect.
"The important thing is to manage and verify what to invest those 100 p/u in."
Sure, Illios could buy things like junk bloodlines or level 0 talents, which would obviously be useful for testing during the grace period. But a while back in the systems tab, he saw a very interesting one and his light bulb went on.
(Suppose...)
Immediately, he remembered what he saw on a forum for otakus while looking for a new novel, which to read
"If this works..." His heart raced. He thought of a ridiculous but effective way to earn universal points without doing anything.
Of course, the premise was, if this worked, otherwise he would screw up his beginner stage and practically fall behind others. His plan was:
"Crypto system + Multiplier system + Critical system," was his bold idea.
These three make a monstrous combination in terms of efficiency. If the crypto system could be synchronized to generate universal points, it would be possible to earn points by doing virtually nothing.
And these points would multiply and have critical probability with their systems. In that way, a fortune could be made in a very short time.
[ Cryptocurrency System Lv0 :100 u/u ].
[ You can generate any kind of local currency, efficiency: 1x second].
The crypto system is very basic and only has that function, to generate local money.
But what if the local money now is u/p?
Then it would be possible to generate 1 u/u per second and save for the multiplier system. With that, it would be possible to generate double or triple u/p depending on the level.
And if you finally use the critical system, which can double or triple the effect of the multiplier system, in one day you could have half of the universal store.
Thinking about that and with doubts about his future, he finally made a decision:
"Fuck it, he who does not risk does not win". With a pioneering spirit and illusions that this reasoning that could easily be called somewhat audacious would work, he set out to give it a try.
[ Buy Crypton System Level 0? It will cost:100 u/p ]
He gritted his teeth and clicked accept and finally took a step for his unreasonable plan.
[!DING!]
[!DING!]
[Initiating Crypton System.]
[Welcome to the Crypton System! ]
He waited for the system to fully initialize. In the meantime, he kept thinking about how he could combine the crypto, multiplier, and critical systems to generate universal points efficiently.
Finally, the system was fully started, and a screen appeared where he was allowed to choose what type of transactions he wanted to perform. Illios selected "Automated Transactions" and saw something that made his heart race.
[Universal points]
" It worked… "When selecting that option, system messages started to appear.
[ You have won 1 u/p ]
[ You have won 1 u/p ]
[ You have won 1 p/u ]
[ You have won 1 u/p ]
