There is One New Rule Every Month Globally

Why make a promise only to break it?

Chen Yi glanced aside with some dissatisfaction, not dwelling on the matter. After all, he didn't have a pressing need for Points lately, and fifty million Points were enough for now. Blue Star's Newbie Protection Period would also end soon.

The Newbie Protection Period lasts 12 months.

It started on April 1st.

Now, October 1st is almost here.

Five months are about to pass, and in another seven months, Blue Star's Newbie Protection Period will be over. Continue reading at My Virtual Library Empire

Then, Chen Yi lit another cigarette and brought it to his lips as he looked at the exclusive title he received for perfectly passing his first debut map, based on his actions within the map—"God."

「Title Name」: God.

「Title Level」: Black.

「Title Effect」: When you activate this title effect, anyone with fewer Points than you will feel an extremely oppressive aura when they look at you and won't be able to look you in the eye. Moreover, their voice will carry an awe-inspiring magnetism, as if they were speaking to a deity.

However, if the other party has the same number of Points or more than you, there will be no effect.

「Title Source」: Exclusively awarded based on player Chen Yi's actions on the S-Level map Rogue Star.

「Title Introduction」: "Man cannot look directly at God."

"A black title."

Chen Yi nodded thoughtfully. Black level was not as high as Starry Level, but it was the highest level title a normal newbie player could obtain. He quite liked it, especially since it was his first black level title.

It also satisfied a small collecting hobby of his.

But what he was curious about was this.

The effect of this title allows those who have less money than him to be unable to look directly at him.

And he also has a Starry Level title called 'Attention of Millions,' which, when activated, forces everyone nearby to fix their gaze upon him. What would happen if he used these two titles at the same time?

Would the other players around him look at him or not?

This was a question worth pondering.

But he now had more important things to do.

He casually chose a D-Level solo map and dived in; he wanted to experiment with what kind of creatures could stack with his S-Level Prop, 'Longevity as the Southern Mountains'.

...

Half an hour later.

A flash of white light passed, and Chen Yi reappeared on the rooftop.

The temperature in the air gradually rose with the rising sun.

Chen Yi casually waved to activate the air conditioning system built into the beach area before sitting back in the beach chair with a sigh of regret.

He had already conducted the experiment.

Killing microorganisms did not activate the S-Level Prop 'Longevity as the Southern Mountains'.

Although he had guessed this would be the case, the disappointment was unavoidable upon realizing there were no shortcuts. Through his experiments, only two types of beings could add to the stack of the S-Level Prop.

Players, NPCs.

Beyond those, nothing else.

Because he tried killing some chickens and ducks on Blue Star, as well as fish in the sea.

None had any effect.

Only other players in the game and NPCs in the maps, including monsters and bosses, could add to the stack of 'Longevity as the Southern Mountains'; nothing else could.

In that case, he would have to choose his maps carefully.

Chen Yi glanced at his personal panel.

A new line for Life Value had been added.

「Life Value」: 121.

The initial value was 100, and the extra 20 came from the map he had just entered, which didn't have many monster-spawning stages. The other 1 point was from a small creature that Gold Miner had caught for him while sea fishing yesterday.

Every 100 points of Life Value added was like gaining an extra life.

He tried to cut his skin with a knife; as expected, he felt no pain and experienced no inconvenience in his actions, just saw his Life Value display -6.

There was also a recovery rate.

(Recovers 0.001 Life Value per second.)

By his calculations, it would take about 6000 minutes to fully recover this amount of Life Value, roughly 100 hours, or about three to four days, which was almost equivalent to the recovery rate of a normal person.

Of course, he naturally wouldn't wait to recover naturally.

'Snap!'

A medical prop was slapped on.

The recovery speed immediately began to surge.

(Recovers 100 Life Value per minute.)

In the blink of an eye, the injury was healed.

Looking at it this way, without activating any Prop, Title, or Skill, his physical condition was indeed quite ordinary, and that's even with him continuously activating the passive Skill 'Calm and Composed,' which doubled his physical attributes.

But it still couldn't withstand very severe injuries.

What he needed to do now was to stack up his Life Value to ensure that even without using any props, his defense would be extremely strong. 'Today's goal, let's stack a thousand layers first.'

Chen Yi muttered to himself as he began looking for maps that had a large number of monsters.

But just then.

Tie Chui suddenly ran up from the rooftop's security door looking exhausted and excited, racing up to Chen Yi: "Yi, I... I have a major invention!"

"An invention?"

As he lay on the beach chair deciding which map to enter next, Chen Yi looked up at Tie Chui with some confusion and asked, "What have you invented?"

He was indeed curious about what Tie Chui could have come up with.

But Tie Chui seemed to struggle to explain, simply saying follow me, Yi, before turning and running downstairs, seemingly leading the way.

Without overthinking it, Chen Yi got up and followed Tie Chui's steps, after all, Tie Chui was his uncle by marriage.
