Today was the official launch of the Asia server.
Apart from a small number of die-hard fans of Mechanical Revolution, most of the Asia server players were extremely excited. They had already started their preparations before eight o 'clock at night. Even the Black Sea Gaming Chamber was selling like hotcakes in the Asia region.
Ever since they relied on the aircraft carrier Battle Online, the Black Sea Corporation's market value had been soaring. However, they clearly understood that the glory they had now was given to them by the person in charge of Battle Online.
Therefore, after a discussion by the Black Sea Corporation's board of directors, they decided to gift Lu Wu 40% of their shares as a gesture of gratitude and goodwill.
Although Lu Wu was not interested in this, he still accepted it. After all, the Black Sea Corporation's meteoric rise from the crisis was indeed due to him.
The main reason why he cooperated with the Black Sea Corporation was that the gaming chamber could help the players play the game for a longer period of time and create greater profits.
Ever since the launch of Battle Online, Lu Wu's vision had long been detached from worldly material things. Money was really just a string of numbers in his eyes. His biggest daily expense now was Bei Li's snacks. However, it did not cost much, so "money" no longer had any practical meaning to Lu Wu.
…
Tokyo, Shinjuku.
In a rented house that was about the size of 24 square meters, Yuan Zhi leaned on the windowsill and looked at the scenery outside the house. He had a cigarette in his mouth and occasionally glanced at the countdown displayed on the computer screen in the house as he smoked.
After smoking this cigarette, he threw the cigarette in his hand out the window, picked up the coke on the side, and took a few sips.
Looking at the countdown on the official website again, Yuan Zhi subconsciously touched the bruise on his face and grimaced in pain.
Yuan Zhi was still traumatized when he thought about the violent attitude of the Battle Online players when they fought.
They were too brutal!
That's right, Yuan Zhi was one of the main initiators of this fight.
As a loyal fan of Mechanical Revolution, he had always heard of the game Battle Online. However, he had never played the game because the Asia server had not been released. Moreover, in his heart, Mechanical Revolution, which had accompanied him since childhood, was his favorite.
After two years of waiting, Yuan Zhi was very excited and happy to finally see his beloved masterpiece ready to be released in the Asia server.
However, due to the arrival of Battle Online, Mechanical Revolution's first release plan was aborted. Yuan Zhi was undoubtedly furious at that time.
That was why he and his friends in the Mechanical Revolution game forum had decided to bombard the Battle Asia forum.
In the subsequent confrontation with the Battle Team players, they were the first to issue a challenge.
However, the outcome was undoubtedly extremely tragic. In that chaotic battle of 1,000 versus 5,000, Yuan Zhi was beaten to the point where he almost doubted his life. He even thought that he was going to be hammered to death. Fortunately, he managed to survive.
However, this duel had completely embarrassed them. Not only had they brought weapons, but they had also set up an ambush. In the end, they had still been beaten up badly. It could be said that the Machinery Revolution players had become the laughing stock of the gaming circle.
Fortunately, the Battle Alliance players released the video of the fight. Otherwise, he would have been detained for a few days.
After coming out of the detention center, Yuan Zhi had a new idea in his mind.
He wanted to experience this Battle Online game for himself. Then, he would write a trial review report and post it to many well-known game forums. He did not believe that he would not be able to find the various bugs in this game as a veteran player.
Thinking of this, he lit another cigarette and fell into deep thought …
When it was eight o 'clock, the countdown screen on the Battle Alliance official website began to gray out from the top right corner. As the gray faded away, the option to download the game appeared.
Upon seeing this, Yuan Zhi immediately went to the computer and clicked on the download button. He then took out his virtual reality helmet.
The download was very fast. It was completed in one second.
Yuan Zhi was not surprised by this. In the past, he had seen many gaming media reporting on this magical feature of Battle Online.
After the download was completed, he sent the game to his virtual reality helmet. Then, he put on the helmet, relaxed his body, and lay down on the tatami mat.
The familiar Starry Sky interface. Battle Online had suddenly appeared on the virtual desktop.
Yuan Zhi's lips curled up. He clicked on the icon and chose to enter the game.
After a brief moment of silence and darkness, Yuan Zhi's vision suddenly widened. The scene of lava surging and the ground collapsing appeared. Countless towering creatures that looked like giants were fighting on this fragmented land.
Every time they attacked, the sky would change color and the space would collapse. The entire world seemed to be experiencing doomsday. In the clamor, it was falling apart bit by bit. The world was being destroyed …
At this moment, a line of words appeared along with the old voice.
In ancient times, the Demonic Ridge Land was filled with gods and endless wars. The entire land collapsed and was restored again and again under their wars.
As time passed, millions of years later, the gods retired and a new Demonic Ridge Continent was born. In order to avoid the disaster of war caused by attacking each other, the races that were once loyal to different gods started the first Demonic Ridge Continent Race Negotiation.
After the discussion, the 32 races finally formulated the Demonic Ridge Codex and elected the leader of the Sly Demon Clan as the first Lord Demonic Ridge. The entire Demonic Ridge Continent entered a temporary peace …
However, in this world where the strong preyed on the weak, resources were limited after all. The weak relied on the protection of the Demonic Ridge Codex to become richer and more powerful than the law enforcers. Under such circumstances, the law enforcers who preached that the codex was justice had a change of heart!
Jealousy was the beginning of a new disaster. In their eyes, the weak did not deserve to have everything that belonged to them!
At this moment, a purple ancient book appeared on the screen in front of Yuan Zhi. Above this ancient book, there were countless distorted figures swaying.
The old voice continued to speak.
The new rules had been formulated, and the protection of the codex only existed in name. The former Demonic Ridge Codex had long lost its binding power. From the moment the law enforcers became "jealous", it had already turned into the Dark Codex, a dark side that was hidden behind the Demonic Ridge Codex, but still existed.
At this moment, the Demonic Ridge Codex in front of Yuan Zhi began to burn. When the flames faded, a black cover of the Dark Codex with white bone nails appeared. The grinning skull on the cover of the book let out a hoarse laugh …
The opening CG scene really surprised Yuan Zhi.
The entire scene was extremely immersive, as if everything was happening in front of him. From the spectacular battle of the gods to the final Demonic Ridge Codex turning into the Dark Codex, it was like a story. Unknowingly, he was immersed in it as he listened to the old voice narrate the history.
Even Yuan Zhi had to admit that this game's CG was superb!
However, in his opinion, good CG didn't necessarily mean that the game was good. He would only know after experiencing it.
When the CG ended, the game interface appeared in front of Yuan Zhi.
[The horn of resistance is blown at this moment. Tear apart the codex that has long been corroded by darkness. Crush the law enforcers. The ancient Demon God heard the roar in the hearts of the rebels. The Demon God's Passage has been constructed. As the Demon God's Army, are you ready?]
Yuan Zhi instinctively clicked "Yes."
At this moment, the interface faded, and an underground laboratory appeared in front of him. In front of him were three figures immersed in a blue nutrition chamber. Their faces were unclear, and their bodies were full of flexible tubes. There were also all kinds of sci-fi instruments placed around them. There was a line of words engraved on the left side of the wall.
Human Evolution Project!
[Game Notification: Please choose your character!]
The game notification rang, and Yuan Zhi came back to his senses.
The surroundings were too realistic, and he almost thought that he was really in this laboratory. He couldn't help but feel a little nervous. When he heard the notification, his tense nerves finally relaxed.
While marveling at the realism, he stepped in front of the nutrition chamber and reached out his hand to tap the nutrition chamber in the middle.
At this moment, the figure in the nutrition chamber suddenly opened its eyes. Its eyes were filled with ferocity, and Yuan Zhi was so frightened that he hurriedly took a few steps back.
"Bang!"
The figure in the nutrition chamber suddenly moved, smashing the glass door with a punch, and leapt out.
What appeared in front of Yuan Zhi was a man nearly two meters tall. His muscles were well-proportioned, but his aura was like that of a wild animal.
[Paragon (Warrior)]:
Initial Profession Description: Humanity's highest level of research, product of the Paragon Project. From the beginning of the human DNA mixing experiment, scientists tried to increase the proportion of wild animal genes in the modified body, and slowly determined which animal genes could be fused with human DNA to increase combat effectiveness.

The perfect fusion of human and beast genes was born, and as the genes evolved, the Paragon gained strength and regeneration that surpassed the limits of the human body.
Initial Profession Preferences: Strength, Stamina, Endurance, Regeneration
Evolution Method: Genetic Lock Growth Mode. Every twenty levels can be selected for genetic growth!
Yuan Zhi's interest was piqued when he saw the character selection. After looking at the Paragon, he moved on to the other two nutrition chambers.
[Apocalypse (Sorcerer)]:

Two neutron stars millions of light-years away collided, and the resulting destructive matter (strange quark clusters) spread for millions of light-years, causing a devastating blow to planet B71. The entire planet was ravaged by the strange quark clusters and was assimilated by the newly formed "Subatomic Zombies." At the same time B71 was destroyed, the genes in the explorers' bodies reacted with the strange quark clusters, and their structure was reorganized. Most of the explorers died, but those who survived discovered that they had the ability to survive in a vacuum environment. At the same time, their fixed form was no longer a limitation, and they could mimic their body shape at will.

…
After reading the profession description, Yuan Zhi's interest in the game grew.
However, he fell into deep thought about how to choose his profession.
Every profession had a corresponding growth mode. The early choice was crucial, so Yuan Zhi felt that he had to think carefully before making his move.
At this time, he had completely forgotten that he originally wanted to play casually, find some bugs in the game, and then write an evaluation report. He didn't need to care about the profession at all …
