Chen Chen died. After grinding for three straight nights to level up, his vision went black in the Corpse King Hall of the 2004 version of The Legend of Mir. When he opened his eyes again, his soul had transmigrated into the game world. This wasn't an open beta server or a private server, but the most primitive, retro 1.76 version: a savage age when even a single Rake Cat in the newbie village was fought over.
To make matters worse, the original owner of the body was a level 5 Taoist, being ground into the dirt by three thugs. His health bar had only 3 HP left, his inventory was empty, and he couldn't even afford a copy of Soul Fire Talisman.
But Chen Chen smiled.
Every world boss spawn location, hidden quest trigger, equipment drop rate table, and skill synthesis formula: all the conquest guides he'd accumulated over three years in his previous life were now in his head. He used Healing to kill all three thugs with a sliver of health, farmed monsters at strategic spots he remembered to earn money, and traded equipment using his information advantage, crushing everything in his path from the newbie village onward.
A Half-Beast Warrior dropped a top-grade Ebony Sword. He claimed a Divine Beast fragment in the mine's Corpse King Hall and made a name for himself atop the walls of Bicheng with his Skeleton. He met Murong Haitang, a mage who was gentle on the outside but strong-willed within. They shared a bottle of red potion and fell in love amid the zombie horde in the mines. He also crossed paths with Ximen Xuerou, a bold and fierce female warrior who took a boss's deadly blow for him with her own body. The two beauties stood by his side, entrusting their lives to one another.
The six brothers reunited one after another: berserker Shi Hanshan, strong enough to shake mountains; spirit mage Wen Shuyan, whose plans could shape the world; archer Ling Feiyu, whose arrows pierced the void; summoner Yun Zongxiao, who commanded beasts like soldiers; shadow assassin You Wuying, who stalked and struck from the shadows; and holy healer Su Qinghe, who could bring the dead back to life. The nine of them fought their way from the zombie horde in the mines to the walls of Shabak, from the Red Moon Demon
