Thinking of this, she gathered her thoughts and replied:
"Human."
In the end, she chose a different race from her previous life. In her past life, she had selected the Elven race, but as the game progressed, the Elves lacked the balanced attribute points that the Humans possessed. Although Humans were somewhat mediocre in the early stages, once they grew, their explosive power in the mid to late game was truly terrifying.
The Beast race was essentially the Demon race, which included various tribes such as the Fox Tribe and Bear Tribe. Many warriors chose the Beast race for its strength. In her previous life, the first Shield Warrior, "Fierce Dragon," belonged to the Dragon race, which was also a second hidden race within the Beast category. The Dragon race had surprisingly high magic resistance and formidable physical defense. It was said that "Fierce Dragon" was a player who specifically deleted their account to start over after learning about this hidden race.
The Undead Race was a popular choice among many thieves. However, according to analyses by gaming experts on forums, the Undead Race became somewhat mediocre in terms of attribute points in the later stages compared to the Five Major Races, while Humans, who started off average, shone brightly as time went on. After all, as a highly intelligent species, Humans had undeniable advantages.
Elves and Dwarves were distinctly appealing in the early game due to their appearances. Elves attracted a large number of female players with their high appearance potential. In-game, appearance could only be adjusted by 15%, and as an Elf, their maximum appearance was quite alluring—no beauty-loving woman would want to give that up.
Dwarves were not ugly by any means, but they appeared particularly short compared to the tall figures of the other four major races. As time went on, many cute and petite girls chose Dwarves as a foundation for their loli characters, elevating Dwarves to a new level of popularity. When cute loli and shota characters appeared in-game, they attracted a significant number of real-world players, pushing the sales of "Zero Point" game helmets to new heights.
Many players even considered deleting their accounts to start over as loli or shota characters because everyone found it hard to resist cute things. Dwarves had exceptionally high magical attributes—higher than Elves—and combined with their impressive strength, many aspiring violent mages would choose Dwarves as their first option.
In short, choosing Dwarves as a race depended on player preference; after all, this world was one that valued appearances.
This race filled with Western fantasy elements blended many Eastern colors into the game itself, sometimes even overshadowing its Western fantasy aspects.
"Please select your profession."
With a delicate wave of his small pink hand, five major professions appeared before her. There stood a majestic red-clad warrior, an ethereal White-Robed Priestess exuding purity, an elegant Sorceress wielding a staff, a mysterious masked female thief in black attire, and a female archer clad in dark green light armor wielding a Longbow. In her previous life, Yan Yan had chosen the Archer profession; reborn into this world, she made the same choice once again.
"Archer."
“Player Remains Silent, Human Race, Archer, information confirmed. Please adjust your character's appearance, which can fluctuate by 15%.” Shota Yi finished and obediently squatted on the ground.
Yan Yan looked at the slender figure before her, Beauty delicate and expressionless, a moment of daze flickering in her eyes.
Strict Language resembled Mother Yan closely, while Yan Yan was the exact opposite, resembling Strict Father. Originally, her complexion was Fair, her figure slender; though she lacked the ethereal beauty of Strict Language, she possessed all the gentle grace one could expect. Unfortunately, after experiencing various hardships in her past life, her current Autumn Water Starry Eyes were deep and Cold, with dark hues swirling in them that made it hard to look directly. Her narrow eyes paired with thick black eyebrows gave off an intense sense of pressure, while her pale lips were thin and appeared emotionless.
“Lower by 5%.”
The attractiveness of Appearance is related to the charm value of Player Attributes. For some special NPCs, this can enhance their favorability. Therefore, Yan Yan couldn't simply set it to the minimum of 15%. If she made no changes to her appearance, it could lead to trouble in reality, especially given her complex situation.
In her previous life, she had been vain and raised it by 15%, which led to mockery during her escape. In this life, Yan Yan would not rely on her looks; she aimed to stand firm in this world through her own strength and protect her Strict Language, ensuring their livelihood.
Looking at the ordinary game character before her, Yan Yan felt very satisfied. The entire image was one that could easily blend into a crowd without drawing attention—perfect for the plans she was about to undertake, allowing her to strike decisively from the shadows.
“Player Remains Silent, do you wish to enter the game?”
“Yes.”
With a wave of dizziness, when she opened her eyes again, what greeted her was the bustling scene of a novice village filled with people.
Observing the lively surroundings, a smile crept onto Yan Yan's lips as she thought to herself: she was back—
“Excuse me…”
“Emma—I'm getting squished!”
"Stop squeezing, my underwear is almost squeezed out!" "I'm going, why are there so many people..." "Let's do a strong output, a strong output! Rabbit Farming is going - "Mantou Studio comes with leveling, and one thousand Credit Points are included in the package." "Tyson Studio is a must-have for those who are good at killing monsters and leveling up. Don't miss it when you pass by." Woo~~ Is there any brother who is willing to lead others to kill rabbits? Come here~" "Sister, come on, brother will help you, haha." . . . . . Listening to the commotion in his ears, Yan Yan ducked and squeezed out of the novice spot of Novice Village. She looked at the rabbit being guarded and killed by players outside the village and shook her head. This time, she didn't want to grab those scattered rabbits to upgrade, which was slow and inefficient. She pulled out Player Attributes: Player: Silent Race: Terran Occupation: Archer Strength: 5 Agility: 5 Intelligence: 5 Vitality: 5 Charisma: 4 Inventory: Beginner's Outfit (whiteboard), Tattered Dagger (whiteboard)
Money: 1 Copper
After casually glancing around and obtaining the information she wanted, she hurried over to the village chief to accept the "Familiarize with Newbie Village No. 77" quest, which was essentially a map-running task that every Newbie Player could undertake. Compared to grinding monsters for experience, completing quests was still the faster way to level up.
Looking at the quest in her Quest Log, "Familiarize with Newbie Village No. 77," Yan Yan ran eastward. The first hut that came into view was the Blacksmith Shop. Yan Yan squinted her eyes and dashed toward Zhang the Blacksmith.
"Ding ding—" The sound of metal being forged echoed in the air. Zhang the Blacksmith stood in front of the Forging Table, hammering a long sword with a large red-hot hammer.
"Master Zhang, hello." Yan Yan respectfully stood before the Forging Table and initiated a conversation.
As expected, the "ding ding—" sound continued unabated, and Zhang the Blacksmith completely ignored her greeting.
Yan Yan pressed on, "Just by watching your technique, I can tell you must be an experienced master. Each strike lands in a straight line with balanced force, resulting in a sword blade that is uniformly thick. If this long sword is forged properly, it will surely have a sharp edge and a straight body..." Her respectful words flowed like the most beautiful praise from a bard.
Understanding the NPC's personality and flattering him was an easy task. Most of the Zhang the Blacksmiths in every newbie village enjoyed hearing compliments from players.
"Child, from what you say, it seems you have some knowledge of forging?" A glimmer of shrewdness flashed across Zhang the Blacksmith's dark face, covered in sweat. It was so quick that it almost went unnoticed, but Yan Yan, whose attention was fully on him, caught it.
Realizing there was an opportunity, Yan Yan became even more respectful in her speech.
"Senior, I only have a superficial understanding of forging; I wouldn't dare to call it research. I couldn't help but come closer to observe your craftsmanship."
"Hmph, child, aren't you Outsiders busy playing the Rabbit Snatching Game? How do you have time to watch me forge?" Zhang the Blacksmith's sharp eyes scanned Yan Yan, and an unexpected pressure surged forth, causing her heart to tremble. She knew that accepting follow-up quests might not be easy after all...
Yan Yan collected her thoughts and lowered her head respectfully as she continued, "Senior, I'm not very interested in the Rabbit Snatching Game." At the mention of the Rabbit Snatching Game, Yan Yan's mouth twitched slightly before she calmly added, "What I am interested in is appreciating the artistic charm displayed at the peak of craftsmanship."
Unknowingly swayed by the flattery, Zhang the Blacksmith reined in his imposing demeanor and said with a look of disdain, "You go watch over the Furnace. Remember, keep a close eye on the fire." The last sentence carried a hint of warning, neither too harsh nor too gentle.
Yan Yan looked at the task prompt that appeared before her:
System: Do you accept the task "Help Zhang the Blacksmith watch over the Furnace"?
"Yes."
