Monsters Are Coming-Chapter 941 - 262: The Shocking Experience of Rebirth Returned (Part 2)
His gaze focused on the first monster, and instantly the monster's related information surfaced in his mind.
[Stone-Statue Ghost...]
The choice of initial abilities made Ji Chen feel a bit intrigued.
Back when he hadn't crossed over yet, he had played quite a few online games.
In his impression, the classic setup in online games was undoubtedly the Warrior, Mage, and Preacher—these three cornerstone professions.
Other factions were also derived from these three professions.
With Monster World, offering dozens of profession choices right at the start felt quite innovative to him.
After reviewing the abilities of various initial Life Souls in detail, Ji Chen's gaze finally focused on the number 2 containment slot, featuring a creature with fiery red wings, resembling an owl.
Instantly, related information surfaced.
[Would you like to confirm your choice of "Eagle-Headed Demon" as your initial Life Soul?]
Confirm.
Just as the thought appeared in his mind, the Eagle-Headed Demon quickly magnified in his vision, with sharp claws reaching straight for his face.
"Thought reading?"
As soon as he had the thought, the choice was automatically completed.
Ji Chen once again gained a new understanding of the technological level of this game.
In his eyes, the Moon Eclipse Clan had already surpassed the civilizational technology of the White Demon Clan.
And his choice of the Eagle-Headed Demon was mainly related to his combat style.
Throughout his long journey in this otherworldly place, his battle style primarily focused on releasing spiritual power and converting it into telekinesis for object control.
This skill was personally taught by the Dragon Descendant.
Including the various races within their rebel army, most learned abilities were also taught by the Dragon Descendant.
Just as the Dragon Descendant once said, the greatest mistake the White Demon ever made was summoning him into the otherworldly realm, which destined the failure of the White Demon.
In the perceptual picture, his spine lit up like a galaxy.
The Life Soul Ball, symbolizing the Eagle-Headed Demon, embedded itself into the first groove on the spine.
Suddenly, a force beyond words surged into his body.
At this moment, a prompt sounded again, requiring him to name his game character.
Ji Chen pondered for a moment before entering a line of text:
The Returnee.
[Prompt: The game name is already used by another player.]
Explorer.
[Prompt: The game name is already used by another player.]
Reborn, Traveler Against the Tide, Guest from the Abyss... each name prompted was already used by other players.
Feeling helpless, Ji Chen entered:
[Resurrected Returnee but Still Can't Win]
[Challenger Tips: Naming succeeded, welcome to Monster World: Resurrected Returnee but Still Can't Win.]
Ji Chen: ...
Upon successful naming, the four big characters Sun Chasing Space flashed before his eyes, and the Crystal Wall in front quickly crumbled and dissipated.
In an instant, countless chaotic sounds exploded at his ear.
"Everyone's a qualified player now, so speak up in the live room, haha!"
"New brothers, over here, a fresh-out-of-the-oven team is missing one Damage-bearing Stream Player, preferably with Stone-Statue Ghost or Rock Shield as initial Life Soul."
"Shou Jili, 1 to 50 infinite receiving, fair pricing, immediate transfer, scammers curse!"
"Everyone quiet down, listen to me: here's a newly made Monster World plugin — Infinite sacrificial power, Infinite Strength, Infinite Physical Strength... and skip one-hour resurrection cooldown, guaranteed authenticity, priced at 10 billion sacrificial power, no after-sale services."
...
Various cries made Ji Chen suddenly feel a headache.
Looking around, the dense crowd surged like tides.
Tens of thousands of players, dressed in the same black cloth garments as him, filled the square space.
Some players ran around like headless flies, some crouched on the ground researching something, and even more stood frozen like him, speechless at the exaggerated sea of people.
Distantly, flashes of teleportation white light would occasionally light up, and each time it did, a newbie player would be teleported away.
But soon, even more darkly clad figures would join the boiling ocean.
This is no Newbie Village, more absurd than he remembered a Spring Festival train station could be.
In scenes as crowded as this, finding a gap to exit seemed almost impossible.
But Ji Chen's attention quickly shifted back to himself.
His expression suddenly froze.
He looked down at his hands.
Originally covered in cracks, like tree bark, his skin was now smooth and complete, glowing with a healthy sheen under the virtual setting's light.
His fingers had become long and strong, as he lightly flexed them, joints made crisp sounds, without a trace of familiar persistent pain.
He quickly pressed his chest.
The fierce scar that once extended from his collarbone to his abdomen had also vanished.
Through the rough black cloth garment, he could feel the robust youthful heartbeat from his chest.
Though the white hair on his head still hung like snow on his shoulders, as he rotated his neck, there was no sense of lag induced by aging.
"This..."
Ji Chen's heart was shocked; instinctively, he jumped on the spot, nearly stumbling due to the long-lost sense of lightness.
The formerly decayed organs no longer burdened his movements, and his atrophied muscles tightened anew. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶
He tried to throw a punch into the air, though soft without power, much less than the decayed physique before, but the fluidity of joint and tendon cooperation made his eyes heat.
No old wounds throbbed with pain, no suffocating organ failure.
He greedily took deep breaths, even the magnitude of lung expansion was a luxury he never dared imagine before.
This made Ji Chen realize that this data-reconstructed body had returned him to his youthful state.
At that moment, he slowly closed his eyes, letting the long-forgotten lightness flow through his body.
He took a deep breath and slowly exhaled, the sound of blood rushing was clearly audible in his ear.
