The shrinking countdown kept Qin Fu's fragile nerves on edge. Just as Paradise was about to urge him again, Qin Fu closed his heart and shouted loudly. He knew he had to survive.
"I do! Bring the contract! "
No sooner had he finished speaking than a simple piece of parchment materialized instantly in the pitch-black space.
As the parchment appeared, Qin Fu's hand jerked upward, completely beyond his control. A sudden sting pricked his fingertips, and bright red blood spilled, rapidly staining the parchment until it was entirely red.
[The contract is established! Begin repairing the hunter's injuries. As the ink of this universe, ancient symbols light up across the parchment, each representing a pact made with ethereal forces. These symbols are only visible to the contract's participants, binding them by cosmic law. The contract serves as a guarantee, forcing compliance through a mystical link that taps into universal magic, ensuring the hunter's body is healed without further delay. ]
Wrapped in pale green light, Qin Fu watched as his charred skin healed completely within seconds.
[The injury repair is completed, and the hunter's talent is forcibly awakened. ]
Qin Fu sighed with relief once the repair was done. Had he refused, he would have died. For now, he wasn't in danger. Even if he eventually died in this world, he could say he'd witnessed another scenery.
He gritted his teeth after hearing Paradise say he wanted to awaken his talent. Memories of Brother Xiao flooded back. Cloaking his fear with a sarcastic chuckle, he thought, "Ah, Brother Xiao—the legend who almost met his end screaming during the awakening, as if dragons were clawing out of his skin." Just as much pain might await Qin Fu. The thought chilled him, so he tried to reassure himself. What kind of story would it be if he weren't bested by Brother Xiao's epic suffering? He mused uneasily, hope battling the rising tide of terror.
"!?"
The sudden severe pain made his face change drastically. He screamed as the sensation cut through him a thousand times. Luckily, the torture did not last long.
He lay weakly on the ground as the blue text changed. Frightened, he checked it, fearing more torture.
[In order to intuitively express the comprehensive quality of the "hunter", semi-data is opened. ]
Qin Fu felt a wave of uncertainty wash over him. He wondered what this new phase would mean for him. [Warning: "Semi-data" is an auxiliary combat ability; if the heart, brain, and other important tissues are seriously damaged, the hunter will still die. Please be cautious when dealing with the "derivative plane".]
The hunter's exclusive trial begins. If the trial cannot be completed, 'Paradise' will strip the hunter of their identity and turn them into a normal contractor. As his identity dissolves, Qin Fu sees his essence being torn away, leaving only a hollow shadow lost in a void. If the hunter dies during the mission, the hunter will die completely.
Qin Fu took a deep breath. He was determined to face this trial head-on and not let fear overcome him. [Park Ordinance: Everything will be exchanged for equal value.]
Qin Fu stared at the shifting text, but darkness closed in before he could react. As he fell unconscious, only one thought echoed: Damn, paradise teleportation!
[Teleportation start........]
..........
When Qin Fu awoke, he was on a wooden bed in a minimalist room.
He glanced at the sword tattoo on his arm, feeling its burn as it surfaced, and watched the light blue text appear before his eyes. Patting his face, he grounded himself in the present moment.
Feeling the real sensation, he believed he had truly entered the paradise of reincarnation.
Qin Fu took a deep breath. He was nervous and felt strange. Saliva entered his throat, and he coughed violently.
After coughing, he calmed down and looked at the words before him.
The text reads as follows:
Enter the world: Arcane Star in the Third Star Region.
World Difficulty: Lv . 8. Nightmare (This difficulty is the Hunter-only Trials difficulty.)
Source of the World: 0% (The Source of the World will increase when the hunter explores or communicates with the current world character, and when settling the world, it will be calculated against the difficulty of the mission to form the final score)
Qin Fu glanced around the room and noted the glowing runes etched into the wood of the shelves. Each rune pulsed faintly with magical energy. Stepping outside, street chants wrapped him in a melody that blended with shimmering air. It hinted at spells being cast by unseen practitioners. His gaze settled on a market stall where magical crystals gleamed under the sun, whispering tales of their arcane origins. World Introduction: This is a civilization dominated by magic. Although the magic side of Godora is highly compatible, it only forms a surface civilization. There is a certain connection with the stars.
Main quest: Obtain the Magic Crystal.
side quests; Not.
Warning: Do not mention anything about "Paradise" in this world. If you do, you will be executed! Qin Fu felt a chill travel down his spine as he read the warning. The weight of its finality resonated within him. He silently vowed, "I must be cautious. Even if it means holding my tongue against my instincts." This promise sowed a seed of tension and a fear that became part of his psyche.
Tips: This world is a higher "derivative world"; please do not leave the "Secret Star" area, or the world's difficulty will increase greatly!
Tips: Because the hunter enters the world for the first time, the hunter will automatically master the language of this world, and the time limit (this world)
World, start!
