Home and embarrassing himself in the Game World

1197 Words
Tang Ling returned to his old home. His home was actually an apartment of 150 square feet of space. Indeed it looked like it was the worst condition ever but in this city, he was pretty lucky to be able to rent this apartment. Most people lived on the street or in a cramped illegal space where they lived in a house made of trashes. The landlady of the building was pretty good for her locators as it only cost 20 credits a month for this small space of two. It also meant that they had no privacy but who cares? It's not like they were rich enough to enjoy the privileges of having more spaces. The apartment was composed of 3 rooms, a small kitchen, a bathroom, and two bedrooms. it was pretty cramped but life was still good. Tang Fuxi was here waiting for him as she was reading on her phone. She was using the Huashui Phone that only cost 15 coins; after a few months of savings, they were both able to buy these. As for the Web-Line? Together, they managed to hack into the low-level security password of the nearby coffee shop and they would enjoy free Webline. But they wouldn't use much lest that the owner becomes suspicious. "Hello sis" "Welcome back, you've taken your time ?" asked Fuxi. "Well..." Tang Ling was quite embarrassed, his sister knew that he would sometimes wander to search for some work before going home. So he hurriedly explained the situation. "Ah okay... Give me the bread, I'll put some jam." she finally said as she made a "give it to me" hand gesture. Tang Ling gave her his black bread and after she put some jam, he ate it very quickly. "I go take some sleep, for now, you can do whatever you want but go sleep at 9 o'clock" he warned. "Of course brother~" Tang Ling lied on his bedsheet as he took some sleep. According to the previous experience, the Game World as he named would only appear when he was unconscious or sleeping, this theory was confirmed as it was interrupted when the fatty shook him too much and awakened him. He was quite curious about the Game World, it was too mysterious. Tang Ling then heard a cold mechanic voice: "Host is now starting the System. Heavenly Ascension. 10% 50% 100%. Start" As he heard the word {Start}, he felt his body going at fast speed before he appeared in a large plain. Tang Ling couldn't believe his eyes, the Game World was so realistic; he could feel the herbs under his feet and the sensation of the air. It felt more realistic than his life in BaoFeng City! He then checked himself, he was here without any clothes only with underwear. It felt that it was saying that he shouldn't embarrass himself any further. "Young man why are you here n***d? Take these clothes." Tang Ling returned himself to the direction of the voice to see an old grandpa wearing strange clothes and had some clothes on his hands. Seeing that the old man gave him some clothes, Tang Ling could only accept it, wear it and say: "Thank you" [Ding! Your thanks had raised the Village's head favorability by 30.] "Hohoho, don't thank me, youngster. I am the village's head. The village is around here. Follow me." laughed the old man as he scratched his beard. Tang Ling felt strange about his clothes; he never saw anyone wearing these things but it was truly comfortable. He used {Inspect}that the woman taught. [Villager clothes -Luxery] +1 Defense +10 HP A normal piece of clothing that villagers use, when worn it reduces slightly the stamina consumption. As it was gifted by the Head of them and the receiver received his favors, a bonus was given. Although Tang Ling didn't know anything about this world, with this description he knew that he gained some gains as his Favorability with the Head was pretty good. Favorability was the impression of the people, one could gain many things if the Favorability was high! Tang Ling followed the village head for 10 minutes before arriving at the village. Between the 10 minutes, he and the head chatted a few times. He learned that his name was Huang Luo and he was the chief elder of the Lone Dawn Village. Almost everyone had the Huang surname and other villages feared them for their superior strength; no one wanted to risk the destruction of an enemy that you don't really know. "Ding! You've arrived at Lone Dawn Village (Beginner Village)" Lone Dawn Village had stone walls reaching 5 meters surrounding the village with 10m wood walls. There was only one entrance in the village which was the main gate. The houses were made of wood and clay but had a certain style similar to Brokang core city houses. Well, Tang Ling was quite speechless about the 5 and 10 meters walls... Even Bao Feng City didn't have such tall walls! They even used the same inferior stones of the village! Huang Luo seemed to have noticed the shocked expression and started explaining: "Although you're now weak, in neighboring villages, they practice martial arts. Some beasts or martial artists who practice qigong can jump up to 5m, the walls are made to defend against powerful beasts or enemies who have evil intentions for this village. I guarantee that we're the only one who has such walls in the surrounding 3000 kilometers ! " his expression clearly stated that he was quite proud of this fact. After a few blabberings about the village, Huang Luo left. "If you want to meet, you can go to the mayor's house !" Tang Ling looked around and could see some children trying to catch butterflies and people working on the vast fields. Just after finishing looking, some children looked at him suspiciously but after a few seconds of hesitation, they finally said something. "Mister, we want to organize a surprise to our mothers by gifting them flowers but [Sunflowers] are outside of the walls and we don't want that to be caught. Can you get us some sunflowers? [Get the Sunflowers. Difficulty: None The children want to gift sunflowers to their mothers but they can't go outside as it is very dangerous. They want you to gather for them. -Gather 10 Sunflowers and give those to the children Failure: Killed before submitting the quest. Unable to finish before sunset Rewards: 10 EXP and Reputation in Lone Dawn Village.] "Yes !" he said. "Mister what do you mean ?" the children looked at him with their innocent eyes in confusion. "Ahem, I mean of course I would help you." Tang Ling repeated his confirmation. "Thank you Boss !" the children bowed and started playing soccer. "Good" Tang Ling returned and went outside to gather the sunflowers. ... ... How embarrassing! He didn't think that he had to accept normally, he thought that he could only say "yes" and the quest would be accepted but he made a fool of himself.
