Chapter 1: Again and Again, the Eternal Kingdom
"Hey, Lin Han, do you know that new game? It's the eternal kingdom."
In the self-study class, the teacher sat helplessly and looked at the group of students below, who no longer knew what to say, they were all discussing a game that was about to appear, a game that was called the most perfect war strategy game in history - "Eternal Realm". Thinking of this, the teacher couldn't help but think, what role should he build at that time? It is said that the elven class MM is very tempting.
"Huh?!"
Lin Han, who was in deep thought, looked helplessly at Zhang Liang, who was looking at his best friend with excitement on his face, and didn't know what to say.
"No, you must know, you're a fan of Heroes of Might and Magic 3, you must know, right? What race do you want to choose? Terran? Doesn't seem to be for you, but what about the orcs? That's a good estimate, in fact, I think the Hell Clan is quite suitable for you, and the Cemetery Clan is also good. β
Zhang Liang completely ignored Lin Han's feelings, and began to talk to himself, when they were curious about new things at their age, it was understandable that Zhang Liang was so excited about such a brand-new game.
"Class is over!"
The moment the bell rang, almost all the students were boiling, and in less than a minute, more than 100 people in the entire study room were cleaned, and almost all the students were discussing the game of the Eternal Kingdom, which shows how much this game attracts them. "Hey, Lin Han, remember to add my friend to the game when the time comes, I'm still the same name, you know!"
Lin Han lived outside alone, so he didn't go back to the bedroom with Zhang Liang, this guy who was almost going crazy didn't forget to tell Lin Han when he left, it seems that he really fell into a lot of trouble.
"Click!"
Back in the small apartment where he lived, Lin Han entered the bathroom, turned on the unkempt and let the water soak himself, looking at him in the fog in the mirror, he smashed the mirror with a sudden punch, and the fragments were scattered all over the ground, his right hand was bloody, but he didn't feel much.
"It's not a dream."
Seeing that blood was constantly oozing from his right hand, Lin Han took a deep breath and said to himself. When he woke up this morning, he found himself lying on his bed in the college apartment, and the phone on the desk clearly told him that it was 2015, not 2017, before he went to bed.
Slept until 2 years ago? Most other people probably wouldn't believe it, but in fact, it was exactly the case, and when he walked into the familiar study room again, looking at the group of classmates who had long since ceased to be in touch, his reason was telling him that it was true.
November 21, 2015, this date is something that many people will not forget, after 2 years of development, by Ubisoft, Blizzard and other more than a dozen large-scale games jointly developed a super-large virtual strategy game - Eternal Realm global open beta, by the virtual helmet for the real game command, the player plays a lord in it, from the beginning of a small town slowly developed, to the final domination of the continent to the world.
The emergence of this game has completely changed the game pattern of the whole world, almost all gamers in the world have chosen the Eternal Realm, and some people joke that since the game of the Eternal Realm, there are almost no dangerous events in the city at night, because they are all fighting in the Eternal Realm.
Wiped his body clean, Lin Han walked out of the bathroom, sat on the bed with his hands, picked up the game helmet that was put aside, and looked at the eight-digit number representing the purchase number on the helmet, which could only be said to be full of emotion, even if he chose to order it for the first time after knowing the news, his order was out of the tens of millions.
Plugging the game helmet into the power supply, Lin Han lay on the bed and took a deep breath, then put the game helmet on his head, his eyes suddenly darkened, and then he appeared in a huge golden hall.
"Identity confirmed, player Lin Han, welcome to the eternal world, please confirm the name of your game."
A huge fluorescent screen slowly emerged from the golden hall, and a majestic voice sounded in Lin Han's ears.
"Dark blasphemy."
After making a choice, Lin Han finally used the name he had used in his previous life, and when he confirmed the name, a pair of huge white wings and a pair of black fallen wings appeared on the fluorescent screen. This is the camp chosen by the player, and the players in the eternal realm are divided into two camps, light and darkness, and Lin Han in the previous life was a player in the dark camp, and this life will certainly be no exception.
"Player Camp Determined - Dark Council, please choose your race."
"Cemetery Clan."
"Players are invited to make their appearance choices."
"The Black Samurai of the Graveyard Clan."
"Racial determination. The player's profile confirms that player Lin Han, image - Black Warrior, name - Dark Blasphemy, Lord of the Dark Council Graveyard Clan, is entering the game. β
The majestic voice switched to a pleasant female voice, and the scenery in front of Lin Han's eyes also changed suddenly, he jumped from the golden hall to the dark cemetery town, the dark land, the skeletons with white bones, and the qiΔ all proved that this was a town that belonged to the dead.
"Ding! Be aware that a team of monsters is entering your town and you will have to defend against three waves of monster sieges, which will be of great help to your future development. β
Like his memory, each player will encounter three waves of monsters after entering the game, which is not only a test, but also a process of adaptation to the game, and in Lin Han's memory, after completing the defensive task, the player will get an evaluation, and the higher the rating, the higher the reward.
"In that case, then I'm not welcome!"
Looking at the skeletons that kept pouring outside the city, a smile appeared on the corner of Lin Han's mouth, since he was reborn, then he would no longer be an obscure player like in the previous life, in this life, he wanted to fight his own world, in this life, he wanted the whole game to tremble for him!
"Ding! At the end of the battle, you gain 14 XP, you earn 21 Coins, you gain 1 unit of Wood, your class - Skeleton gains 29 XP, and your class - Skeleton Archer gains 15 XP. You have gained 3 units of bones. β
"Damn, it's finally done."
Retreating from the battle space, Lin Han finally breathed a sigh of relief, every lord who built his own castle would be attacked by 3 waves of wild monsters within 10 minutes after entering the game, and the number of attacks in each wave would be more than the previous one, but fortunately, when each lord entered the game, the system would give a certain number of troops, otherwise Lin Han suspected that he would not even be able to defend the first wave.
"Ding! You have completed the Rookie Defense mission. Your castle privileges are all open, you get 1000 units of gold, you get 10 units of resources, and you get the building blueprint - Land of Bones. You have an Ace rating for this defensive mission, and you have received an additional reward - Architectural Blueprints - Skeleton Training Ground. β
"That's exactly what happened."
Seeing the extra blueprints in the backpack, Lin Han was immediately happy, although the defensive battle that had just started was very difficult, but there were also good rewards after completion, of course, for many lords who had just entered the game, this reward was at most 10-100 gold coins or a few units of resources, but for Lin Han, a reborn, this task meant at least one special architectural drawing reward.
"Bone Training Ground: Special architectural blueprint for the Graveyard Clan, requires prerequisite buildings - Necropolis, Base Camp, and Bone Land. It is possible to train a normal skeleton class into a more powerful class, but it will consume resources and class equipment. β
In the Skeleton Training Ground, Lin Han remembered that few people had this thing before they were reborn, because this reward could only be obtained by getting at least a B+ or above evaluation in the defense mission. And for a newcomer who has just entered this game, it is not a simple matter to get a B+ rating, so to speak, the entire game, in this region of Asia, can get a B+ rating of players, at most, less than 100.
As the prompt ended, Lin Han appeared in a huge cemetery, behind him, a floating huge cemetery-like building continued to shine with green light, Lin Han's feet began to become black, and this black area continued to expand.
"Ding! You are on the Graveyard's unique ground, Rotten Land, and you gain 10% movement speed and an additional health recovery bonus of 3 per second. β
Decaying Earth, a terrain unique to the Graveyard Clan, each Graveyard building will corrode the surrounding ground into this terrain after it is built, and the Graveyard Clan's buildings can only be built on the Rotten Earth.
Walking to the bottom of the cemetery, a green light was cast from the aerial cemetery, and Lin Han began to slowly rise into the air and enter the cemetery. In the center of the Necropolis, a green ball of light is constantly jumping, this is the Heart of the Cemetery, the Cemetery's buildings are all supported by this, and increasing the level of the Heart of the Town will open up more Cemetery Clan buildings.
However, it is not an easy task to improve the heart of the town, in addition to a large number of resources, you must first obtain a more advanced town heart, in the previous life, Lin Han and they after 2 years of fighting, there are only a few players with level 8 towns in the whole game, at this time, level 8 town players, basically even if they are peak level characters, each of them is the guild leader who can occupy a region in the game, only they have so many resources to be able to upgrade the town to level 8.
However, in this life, maybe there will be one more player in level 8 towns, although Lin Han does not have a large number of players to support, but in the last life, as an ordinary player, his biggest hobby is to soak in the forum, for the various hidden rewards, tasks, treasure chests and even heroes that appear on the forum, he remembers it clearly, but unfortunately the tasks were announced at that time, and they were basically completed, but in this life, these tasks have not been discovered.
"Give me the details of the town."
Putting his hand on the heart of the town, Lin Han gave an order to the heart of the town, and as the order was issued, a green virtual light screen appeared in midair.
"Castle Name - Dark City, Castle Race - Graveyard Clan. Castle Level: Level 1. Resources: 1432 gold coins, 10 units of level 1 wood, 10 units of level 1 ore, 10 units of level 1 stone. Special Resources: 27 bones. Owns a building: Level 1 Necropolis. Troops: 23 skeletons, 20 skeleton archers. β
This is what Lin Han now has, each lord player will get 25 units of skeletons and 20 units of skeleton archers after birth, of course, this is the unit of the cemetery clan, and the troops of other races are also different.
There are many races that can be selected for players in the game of Eternal Realm, and the player's race in this game is also divided into 2 opposing camps, the Holy Light Alliance composed of the Terran, Night Elf, Elf, Tower, and Fortress, as well as the Graveyard Clan, the Beast Clan, the Dark Elf Clan, the Swamp Clan, and the Hellish Clan, the two camps are located on two different continents, of course, every once in a while, the two camps will break out into battle, and players and NPCs will join the battle. Defeating the enemy in the battle will give you a lot of experience points and faction reputation, and the faction reputation can be exchanged for huΓ n high-level class blueprints or architectural drawings in your faction, so every faction battle is very lively, and a large number of players will work hard here for class blueprints and architectural blueprints.
However, this problem is not Lin Han's business yet, the first faction battle started about 1 month after the game's open beta, and before that, Lin Han still has a lot of time to develop his troops.
"Build the Land of Bones, build the rudimentary walls, and build 2 Towers of Wraiths."
After estimating his resources a little, Lin Han began to give orders.
"Under construction, the Land of Bones is 2 minutes away from the end of construction, the primary city wall is 3 minutes away from the end of construction, and the Tower of Wraiths is 5 minutes away from the end of construction."
An icy reminder sounded, and a pile of skeletons appeared on the necropolis, and these skeletons began to scatter around the necropolis, building the buildings that Lin Han had ordered to build.
"Now, it's almost time to start planning."
After determining the construction time, Lin Han began to clean up the wild monsters around the castle, these monsters are few in number, which can provide players with some initial resources and experience, although not much, but mosquito legs are also meat, for Lin Han, who has just begun to develop, even if it is a resource of 1 unit, it must be fought for.
However, these monsters were not Lin Han's main target, he was cleaning up these monsters while also looking for something special, such as a wild monster lair.
Monster lair in the wild,This is a very special kind of building,They appear randomly in the wild,And fixed somewhere,Generally speaking,This kind of nest is a lot in the wild,But the level of troops that can be recruited is not high,And the number of troops is not much,But,If you can find several of these wild nests,It can also provide players with a good source of troopsγ
"Found it."
After killing several piles of skeletons in a row, Lin Han finally saw a huge cemetery. This is a special kind of terrain in which the attributes of the Graveyard Clan will be improved, and there will definitely be wild monster nests in this terrain.
However, for the current Lin Han, this necropolis cannot be entered rashly, generally speaking, there are a lot of monsters in a necropolis, and the monsters in the necropolis are refreshed quickly, and the most important thing is that the safety range of the monsters here is 50 meters, once they get close to them 50 meters, they will be involved in the battle space, if several monsters are refreshed around Lin Han in a row, he is likely to fall into a wheel war, for him now, even in the face of ordinary skeletons, he can't afford to fight a wheel war.
"Ding! You enter the agglomerate of the skeletons, and you enter the combat space. You don't have any battlefield skills, the battlefield is raw size, enemy troops: skeleton 15 units, skeleton 15 units, your troops: skeleton 23 units, skeleton archer 20 units. β
Lin Han's luck was not very good, just when he hesitated, a skeleton had already refreshed around him, and there was no doubt that the next moment he was dragged into the battlefield by this skeleton.
The terrain of the necropolis is similar to a small open copy of the wilderness, and the number of monsters in it is quite large, such as the skeleton team that Lin Han met, which has 30 units, and on the way before, the skeletons that Lin Han encountered were all 2-7, and occasionally met a 10, which was quite rare.
"Skeletons: Tier 1 of the Graveyard Clan, the most common undead soldier among the Graveyard Clan, although fragile, but their number is their greatest advantage. Damage: 1-3, Defense 1, Health 15, Movement Speed: 1 meter per second. Attack speed once every 3 seconds. Special Abilities: 1. Skeleton Body [The skeleton's skeleton body has a certain chance to dodge ranged attacks, and has a 33% chance to dodge the attack when receiving a ranged attack].
