Chapter 1: Charisma?

It was exactly noon Yue Qiang clirocery store to buy his lunch

“I want a bag noodles, chicken mushroom flavor please”

The stroke clerk is a woht chary eyes, unshaven beard and drab looks, she coldly he at hiht in the eye

Already used to being scorned, Yue Qiang indifferently walked out of the store As soon as he arrived at his house, he started to boil his instant noodles and switched on his computer

Yue Qiang readied hi

As of late, he was rather enthralled by the single player game named ‘The Witcher 3’ and had mindlessly sunk araphics and packed a reasonable a it today at max level difficulty

He double clicked the gaination or did Geralt of Rivia soed up by the steaah he had spent most of his money to buy this coame to load and it shouldn’t have loaded instantaneously like just a while ago

It was then he realized that so was amiss

The interface was definitely not displaying The Witcher 3’s title screen He was instead greeted by an unfaraphics that emanated an antique feel At the center of the screen were two artistically drawn ancient Chinese characters, which he barely could read as ‘The Game’, belohich was a start button and to the side three tiny progress bars of red, green and blue

Yue Qiang’s curiosity was piqued He was sure that he had not click the wrong icon and that he did not inal icon anywhere else; not to mention he had routinely clicked it everyday so it was impossible for him to make such a mistake

So that begs the question: What is this game?

Yue Qiang was certain that he had never installed this game before on his PC Also, wasn’t the title a little bit too odd? You can call a game ‘World of Warcraft: The Game’ or ‘The Witcher 3: The Game’, but what the heck is a ‘The Gaame would usually have 4 options: ‘Start’, ‘Save/Load’, ‘Options Menu’ and finally ‘Return to title Screen’ But this game only has one option, ‘Start’

Yue Qiang did not click on the gaht was to return to desktop and continue playing ‘The Witcher 3’ First, he tried ALT+TAB (Switch Windows) to no avail, then he tried CTRL + ESC (Open Start Menu) with similar results WIN+D (Show Desktop)? ALT+F4 (Close Current Window)? CTRL+ALT+DELETE (Task Manager)? But nothing worked Really? I can’t quit the game?

Although the gaeous, the textures and ani still did not want to play it The reason was because that the game was clearly developed domestically: froround effects, plus the classic Sizhu aka Silk and Ba from the speaker; they all reminded him of homemade classics such as ‘Chinese Paladin’ and ‘Xuan-Yuan Sword’ series While these doames weren’t too badly received, and when he was but a wee he loved them to death – let’s just say that the latest releases left much to be desired

Anyways, Yue Qiang eventually came to the conclusion that this was probably aa demo or ressed to a certain point in the gaaht then and there, but knowing that a force restart would ave in and clicked the ‘Start’ option

At the very least, I should see what this gaht?

The character creation screen showed up right after the title screen faded into the background, but to his surprise, the character was already created

Player Na

Class: Student

The character display was a 360 slow rotating ain surprised that the character somewhat resembled himself The only difference was that the model wore a traditional Chinese robe, and for whatever reason it made him look… weird, so to say It wasn’t that the clothes were badly designed, it was just that his natural looks… left much to be desired

Ouchies Yue Qiang tried to change his appearance through the character custorayed out He then tried to change his userna that hty, short forrayed out and unchangeable He continued to scroll doards, There he found the game’s five initial stats, they were:

Strength: 12 (You’re strong enough to move bricks)
