Forced Survival.
I open my eyes to bright light all around me. I can't seem to move or speak. All I remember was watching some online videos before passing out.
"Glad you finally decided to join us." boomed out a majestic voice in my mind.
"I'm what you would call God in your language. I've watched over your species since before you could even walk. However what I see now sickens me. Your kind went from apex hunters down to basic pests squabbling over money, politics, and false power. You sit in front of monitors and watch the world pass you by." The majestic voice boomed out angrily.
"All that limitless potential. Wasted. But fear not tiny one I'm going to give you a helping hand." The voice echos in my mind and I can't help but shiver at the tone he used.
"I see you love transmigration and system novels. I'm going to grant both of those wishes. Based on all those survival guide videos you've watched I've picked the perfect system for you." The voice laughed with a hint or irony in its voice.
[Basic Survival System Received]
A notification goes off in my mind. I'm ecstatic to receive a system I've read so many books about them.
*Chuckle* "Your happy yes? Well let's see if I can't give you a basic run down of your new system." laughs the voice, giving me an ominous feel, as if I've been tricked somehow.
The voice continues on. " Your system has three abilities. First is the farm. A small internal world. You can think of it as your own little personal base. It can be used to grow crops, raise animals, or even build a small home. Now since I don't want you cheating out on my fun little game. It can only be used when your not in danger. Meaning you can't run away from a lot of nasties I'm going to carelessly throw you too." the voice in my mind sounds smug about his limiting my survival a bit.
"Next we have basic crafting. It will help craft items given that you have all the materials needed. You could craft everything from a wooden club to a galactic starship. However that's only if you have the materials. Where I'm going to be placing you your best bet is the club."
At this point I realised the god is having too much fun to even care about my opinion.
The god continues on. "The third and final part of this system. Is the harvester ability. It's main uses are for identifying items and increased speed of gathering using crafted items or tools. For example if your cutting down a tree with a stone axe you may receive logs at a very slow rate, However if you use an iron axe you'll recieve them much faster basically 1 every 15 minutes to 1 everyone 10. it scales with the grade of your gear. If using tools the quality of items received may be increased. Like skinning a deer with a rock knife may get you a torn deer skin but using a iron knife gets you a regular deerskin."
Sounds simple enough for me I think to myself. I wonder what else I get.
"Hahaha! Your thinking you'll gain some more things like a shop or starter package right?" The god laughs as I internally start to worry.
"You recieve no shop. Your starter package is me letting you have your shirt and pants you fell asleep in. Your inventory is your little farm world but remember it locks when in danger so be wary. Would be awful bad if you ran into some creature and all you had was stored in the farm. You want bloodline and skills? Your a human, the sky is your limit." The voice sounds as if it's sneering at me.
"I'll give you a bonus though. I'll set you down in a nice area to start." he chuckles sinisterly.
"To your south will be ocean as far as the eye can see, with leviathan class monsters and prehistoric style water creatures. To your north is forest inhabited by carnivorous beasts and monsters from T-Rex size to Cat size of all different type including magical creatures."
Ah shit. I'm screwed.
"Try and survive I love to see a good struggle."
the voice booms out with a laugh before everything goes black in my vision.
When I open up my eyes I see I'm on a beach filled with brown sand in front of me is pure blue ocean and behind me is dense jungle style forest. However I know I'm no longer on earth. In the distance I see two moons in the clear blue sky. There's a mountain range far off with what appears to be some type of floating island hovering near it.
First things first. I concentrate on some knowledge that was put in my head and I'm sucked into my internal world.
All I see now is just pure white as far as the eye can see. There is nothing here. No dirt, no water, no house, just pure white.
Well I guess we better look at the situation I'm in. Name is Ryan Steele, I'm 17 i have sandy blonde hair and blue gray eyes. I have an average build 6"3 tall, no bulking muscles just a bit of a belly due to youtube. I'm now forced into some survival style funland on the whims of a God. My current gear is a plain black t shirt and some jeans. No socks or shoes I do have my undies though so that's a plus. Other than this everything else seems to be pretty crappy.
