Chapter 87: Mistake 8
"Please select a birthplace in the Mehrabad Kingdom."
A map that displayed tens of cities belonging to the Mehrabad Kingdom appeared in front of Kashif.
The opening of Divine World was globally synchronized. To accommodate for the hundreds of millions of players, the lands of Divine World were incredibly vast, measuring up to two or three times of Tianzhu, and the kingdoms within were even more plentiful.
However, a player’s living area and city, in reality, determined the country they would start in, so players could only choose the cities within the country.
There were few important cities in Mehrabad, they were Hyderpur, Murshid Nagar, Fatehnagar, Aurangshahr, Sikandarpur, Gulbargan, Mehran, Zohrabad and Jaunpuriya.
While there were the few important towns, and the beginner village.
Every player can choose their birthplace in beginners Village.
"Murshidnagar."
Kashif did not plan to choose any other cities, so he chose the Murshidnagar that he was most familiar with.
Murshidnagar was Mehrabad Kingdom’s fifth ranked city. It was an important city in the centre of Mehrabad Kingdom There were quite a few Workshops that chose to develop there to avoid the struggles between large Guilds.
"City confirmed. Player will arrive in Sabirabad Town of Murshidnagar in three seconds. We wish you happy gaming."
The sight before Kashif immediately blurred as he was sent away.
Sabirabad, the buildings that were chaotically arranged there had a similar style to the medieval ages. NPCs filled the bustling streets, making them feel as if it was another world.
Kashif arrived at the front of a mosque, his new appearance resembling a penniless Swordsman. He currently wore a gray Novice Leather Armor and on his waist hung a Novice Sword.
"I ended up in Sabirabad!" Kashif was awed on arriving here. Because, getting birth in Sabirabad Town was also luck. Most people get birth in Beginner Village, since there are limited things for the players.
But getting born directly in Town, he gets many things.
He smiled faintly as he looked at the town, confidence welling up within him.
At that moment, many players had started wandering around the town, speaking to NPCs in hopes of obtaining a trail for a Quest. There were also quite a few players that went out of the town, going out to the wilderness to kill monsters.
Every one of them was carrying out their tasks as if their lives depended on it and they couldn’t help but wish they could split their time in two.
Kashif didn’t pay attention to the other players. With a slight wave and touch of his finger, a player’s Attribute Panel appeared before him.

Inside his bag, there were ten pieces of Bread and ten pouches of Water. Eating the Bread would recover 10 HP per second while drinking Water would recover 10 MP per second, and both effects lasted ten seconds.
Every Swordsman started with the same Attributes, the only difference being the allocation of the Free Attribute Points.
Each player could obtain 5 Free Attribute Points with each increase in Level. With each rise in Level, the different ways players used these points would result in their own unique style.
Strength increases Physical Attack Power and the weight behind each attack.
Agility increases Attack Speed and Movement Speed.
Endurance increases maximum HP and stamina.
Intelligence increases Magical Attack Power and maximum MP and Vitality increases the recovery rate of MP and HP.
Every Job places emphasis on different Attributes.
As Swordsmen belonged to the physical damage Jobs, most people would prioritize Strength.
In his previous life, Kashif also made such a choice, adding 2 points to Strength, one point to Endurance, and one point to Agility for every Level. It was a very ordinary and commonplace choice.
However, Kashif did not plan to do so in this life.
Without hesitation, Kashif clicked on the plus sign (+) for Agility, placing all 5 Free Attribute Points into it. Kashif’s Agility increased to 9 points; his Attack Speed changed to 6 and Movement Speed to 5.
This method of point allocation was something not even Assassins, who were widely known for their high Agility, would do. They would prioritize Strength first, as more damage meant an easier time leveling up.
Unfortunately, Kashif didn’t think that way.
For melee Jobs, Agility was the best choice at the early stages of Divine World. This was kept a secret, only being discovered several weeks after Divine World’s opening.
When it was finally made known, countless melee players couldn’t help but hammer their chests in regret.
After adding the Attribute Points, Kashif took a look at his surroundings.
Only a while had passed before another large group of players were sent here. Green rhombus-like symbols belonging to players filled the air of the central plaza, blocking out the yellow symbols belonging to NPCs. Such a situation made looking for an NPC an even greater challenge.
Di! Di! Di!
Kashif’s voice communication rang, the caller’s name showing Black Cloud. It was Aamir calling.
"Kashif, I chose Cursemancer and was sent to Sikariya. Where are you?" Now that he had entered the Divine World, Aamir was extremely excited, itching to start his journey quickly.
"I’m in Sabirabad, not that far from Sikariya. I’ll help you level up, so come to Sabirabad." Kashif said.
