Chapter 1042: Chapter 385: The Unexpected Current Situation of Blue Star
The surroundings were pitch black, with only the emergency lights on.
Ree Shil crawled out of the pod, the liquid on his body quickly evaporating.
"You, you you you, you’re awake?!"
From the doorway of the Room, there came a cry of astonishment.
Following the sound, he saw an optometrist in a White Lab Coat.
Strangely, above the other person’s head was a line of text: Doctor Lu.
This looked more like a code than anything.
"..."
Watching the other party, Ree Shil didn’t know where to start with his questions.
"Ree Shil, do you still remember your own situation?"
Doctor Lu came over, handing him a spare White Lab Coat.
"What situation, where is this?"
Ree Shil was full of confusion.
"Could it be a Mental Shock causing memory damage?"
Doctor Lu sized him up.
Pity that the Hospital’s Electrical Power resources were so precious now, otherwise he would definitely have given the other party a thorough examination.
"You’ve been in Deep Sleep for ten years," he said.
Ree Shil was even more baffled: "What ten years, what Deep Sleep?"
"Are, in the Cube Card Metaverse, you having a good time?"
The following words from Doctor Lu hit him like a hammer.
"Is this Blue Star?!"
Putting it together with the context, Ree Shil instantly realized.
"That’s right, let’s walk and talk.
I’ll find you a set of normal clothes upstairs."
Thus, Doctor Lu led him out of the Basement.
It was the wee hours of the morning, and there was no one in the corridor.
Having reached Doctor Lu’s Office Room, he brewed Ree Shil a cup of tea, then began to narrate smoothly.
"Originally... was it just my spirit that traversed?"
After hearing the story, Ree Shil felt like it belonged to a different world.
The initial traversal process could unconditionally heal injuries, so theoretically, even if it was just the soul that crossed over, it could supplement a transmigrator with a sound body.
He then looked at his own Panel, which indicated this place was an Instance, actually named Blue Star.
Not only that, the Panel also had a button that could be used to travel back and forth at any time.
Whoosh!
"Hmm?"
Right in front of Doctor Lu, Ree Shil vanished into thin air like a living person might do.
A few minutes later, he pushed open the door of the Office Room, stark naked, and stood In Front Of the other party again.
"..."
Ree Shil was a bit downcast.
This back and forth traversing was one thing, but why lock the landing point to the liquid pod in the Basement?
Key point is, his clothes were gone again, which was a bit embarrassing.
Later, Doctor Lu began to introduce the current situation on Blue Star.
Words like Beast and card player appeared one after another.
Apparently, with the electrical-devouring Phantom Monsters invading up to now, Blue Star’s situation had undergone another new change.
That was the dataization of card players.
At first, card players just used Card Games to forcibly drag Phantom Monsters onto the Card table to Battle.
Now things had changed; not all Phantom Monsters could be put on the table anymore.
Some Phantom Monsters needed to be killed by hand to be dealt with.
At the same time, card players could also be affected by dataization, able to inflict effective Damage on Phantom Monsters.
Ree Shil was quite receptive to this situation, having experienced it himself inside the Instance.
Some levels in the Seven Series Dao were fought with the card players themselves being dataized.
This kind of gameplay also existed in the Clubhouse.
"You’re a card player, right?"
Having explained all this, Doctor Lu took out a piece of Glass shard-like stone from the drawer.
"This is a Startup stone for dataization, just by touching it, card players can use their dataized bodies in Battle against Phantom Monsters."
He pointed to the code above his head.
"OK."
Ree Shil nodded, taking the Startup stone.
Hum!
At the moment of fingertip contact, a Panel popped up that only he could see.
[Please enter your code name] frёewebηovel.cѳm
After thinking for a bit, considering that this was his homeland, Blue Star, he still entered: Henry Thompson.
[Please choose your Genre]
Then, a plethora of options popped up.
"Genre? What’s this?"
This was something Ree Shil hadn’t seen before.
But on closer inspection, he found it all too familiar.
[Balance Faction]: Continuous Energy Recovery
[Berserk Faction]: Health Points for Energy
[Wisdom Faction]: Full Energy at Normal State
...all seven major factions.
Then there were five Genres for Aberration Cards like [Wither Faction][War Faction].
"A Genre is your primary way of regaining Energy during Battle," explained Doctor Lu beside him. "Apart from a very slow base Recovery efficiency, each Genre has its own unique recovery rate.
Listening to the Wind Faction regains energy the fastest, while Wisdom Faction has no extra recovery capability and is the slowest, followed by Balance Faction.
Once you’ve chosen a Genre, you can also pick your Profession.
But remember, once chosen, neither Genre nor Profession can be changed."
"This..."
Ree Shil was a bit mystified.
"From the experience everyone has summarized so far, there doesn’t seem to be any distinction of good or bad between Genres.
It mainly depends on an individual’s Combat style and Profession preference.
For example, if you choose a profession that endures Damage, then the Determination Card would be more suitable.
If you choose a high-speed profession, then chasing the wind fits.
If you choose a DPS or Healing profession, then Listening to the Wind is appropriate.
And so on."
Explained Doctor Lu, observing Ree Shil’s reaction. With that, he turned on the Computer to show Ree Shil videos: "If you’re still indecisive, you can watch others’ Battle videos with Phantom Monsters."
Genre, Profession, it all sounded like the mode of an MMORPG.
Sure enough, in the video, he saw individuals engaging in combat with Phantom Monsters in a variety of ways.
