The scene in front of him darkened again, and then it began to appear slowly. White fog could be seen on a vast and distant continent, faintly covering some of the buildings.
The scene changed again and began to play the pets in Eternity. Each of them was vivid and lifelike. One could feel the temperature with one’s hands.
A roar of a monster came from the forest.
A cute little rabbit jumped around.
A violent monster with the head of a bull and the body of a horse.
A little cheetah that was as fast as lightning.
A little hedgehog that breathed out waves of cold air.
Eternity was a virtual simulation game that mainly consisted of pets summoned by oneself. It was an online game where pets fought each other. The game mainly relied on characters to level up pets. The players’ attributes were relatively weak, and a strong pet was the key to victory.
However, it was precisely because of the players’ weak attributes that made achieving True Eternity difficult.
In addition, there were all kinds of pets to choose from in Eternity. They did not necessarily need to fight to exchange for resources. Some could also rely on mining, farming, herb picking, and various transactions to exchange for resources.
Seeing this familiar scene, James Williams’ heart began to beat faster and faster.
[Please choose your class.]
[Archer, wizard, swordsman, and tank.]
In his previous life, James Williams had chosen to be a wizard, but now things were different. With the eternal ring, he could obtain other special identities.
[Honorable owner of the eternal ring, please choose a special identity.]
[Special class: Forger. Could cooperate with wizards and comprehend the Forging Fire to forge special weapons and clothing.]
[Special class: Psychic. Could cooperate with wizards and comprehend the Psychic Heart to awaken mind power.]
[Special class: Pet Trainer. Could cooperate with wizards and comprehend Special Talents to become a pet trainer.]
Since he had chosen to be a wizard, all the special identities were related to him. Each class would have different special identities.
However, after choosing to be a wizard, James Williams was no longer qualified to check the information of other special identities.
This information was still relatively confidential. As long as he did not expose himself, no one would be able to know his special identity.
Normally, every character in Eternity only had one identity, but there would be some special opportunities in the game to increase a character’s number of identities.
Regarding these special identities, every single one of them would be wanted by various unions as special identities were simply too rare!
In his past life, there were unions that would pay sky-high prices to recruit people with special identities.
There were also some who coveted people with special identities. They would secretly investigate them in the real world and kill them.
Therefore, a special identity was also a double-edged sword. If used well, one would be above thousands of people, and if not, one would be killed!
However, James Williams knew that if he wanted to achieve True Eternity, he could not achieve it by relying on his abilities alone. He had to rely on divine level pet beasts and bind them with a contract in order to make himself an Eternal.
Pet levels were divided into 10 levels in Eternity.
Bronze, silver, and gold.
Platinum, white gold, and diamond.
Extraordinary, king, and immortal.
Legendary!
Every three stages was a hurdle. Pets could use this to evolve new skills. The remaining stages were to strengthen their existing skills with every level up.
Legendary pets were already creatures that belonged to legends. In his previous life, only a few people managed to sign a contract with a legendary pet to become an Eternal.
Pets that had reached the legendary level would also have their own consciousness and ability to think and make decisions. They could either fight side by side with a character to obtain resources, or a character could pay the price they demanded.
However, there was something special about leveling up with pets since young. Once a human and a beast had formed a sincere relationship, when a pet reached the legendary level, it would naturally agree to sign a contract.
As Eternity had not started yet, only the owners of the special eternal rings were able to enter the game in advance to choose a character.
[Congratulations, you have chosen a special class as a forger.]
After careful consideration, James Williams chose to be a forger. Compared to the other two special classes, the forger was the most eye-catching.
Clothing and weapons were also divided into ten levels, just like pets.
Bronze, silver, gold, platinum, white gold, diamond, extraordinary, king, immortal, and legendary.
Every clothing and weapon had durability. There was a perfect state and a broken state. Normally, the equipment obtained from a quest was broken, but it could be upgraded to the perfect state.
Therefore, some players were so rich that they used US dollars to buy equipment and weapons that were in good condition. Forgers could also repair equipment and weapons to their perfect state.
This was why there were trade unions. Trade unions were formed by rich people. They would buy equipment and weapons in the game to attract people to join the trade union. Then, they would make money from Eternity.
After doing all this, James Williams thought of his sister, who was still in the hospital, and now needed 400,000 USD for her surgery.
He also knew that his last hope was in Eternity. In Eternity, every mission would be rewarded with real-life gold coins, which would be stored in his backpack.
However, to make 400,000 USD in a month, James Williams was still under a lot of pressure.
After doing all this, he logged off Eternity. He left home and went to the hospital. In the ICU, he looked from outside the window at his sister who was lying in bed. Beside him, there was the sound of a heartbeat monitor beeping.
James Williams watched silently for a while and followed the attending doctor to the office.
He looked at the doctor in front of him and said, “Dr. Will Lowry, how long can my sister last with her current condition?”
“Your sister, Um… I don’t know for sure. You know her condition. The blood clots in her brain haven’t been cleaned up yet. She can only hold on for at most a month.”
Hearing the doctor’s words, James Williams lowered his head and clenched his hands.
He muttered to himself, “One month. I only have one month.”
Looking at the man in front of him, Dr. Will Lowry pitied him in his heart as he was aware of the situation of their family. However, as a doctor, he could not go against the rules of the hospital.
“Sigh.” The doctor sighed deeply. He could only shake his head, pat James Williams on the shoulder, and walk out.
After the doctor left, James Williams looked up, his eyes shining with hope..
