Chapter 002: Registration

Wang Bo spent a full half hour registering his account and password.

The reason it took so long was simple.

[Please enter your account name]

"I figure, since I'm a superman, I might as well use 'Superman.'"

[Sorry, this account name is already taken]

"Then let's try another one: Clark Kent!"

[Sorry, this account name is already taken]

"If Superman and Clark Kent are both taken, then use Kal-El."

[Sorry, this account name is already taken]

"Uh, Man of Tomorrow, Man of Power, God Among Men, Injustice Superman?"

[Sorry, this account name is already taken][Sorry, this account name is already taken][Sorry, this account name is already taken][Sorry, this account name is already taken]

Wang Bo: ...

It was for all these reasons that Wang Bo spent a full half hour registering his account and password, during which he also came up with a whole bunch of names.

For example, Saint Seiya, Mage, Stand User, Star Platinum, King of the Lonely Mountain, Kryptonian Leader, Seiya, Shiryu, JoJo, Dio—basically, every meme Wang Bo could think of and every name he could imagine was already taken.

After all, this game had been released for decades and had a massive player base; any slightly interesting name had long been registered.

Even Wang Bo's own name had already been taken.

In the end, Wang Bo, in a fit of anger, chose a very distinctive name and successfully registered.

I Am the King of the Lonely Mountain, Kryptonian Leader, Stand User, Saint Seiya, God Among Men!

Although the name was a bit long and a bit chuunibyou, it vividly displayed Wang Bo's identity and status.

After successful registration, Wang Bo began to create his character's appearance. A three-dimensional male figure appeared before Wang Bo, with a physique very different from his own, but a face identical to his.

Wang Bo recalled that when he put on the helmet, a beam of light had scanned his face; his facial data was probably read by the game at that moment.

However, Wang Bo noticed a series of progress bars beside the three-dimensional male figure that could be adjusted.

These progress bars could adjust Wang Bo's face and physique.

But Wang Bo did not adjust his face. Many people adjust their faces because they are dissatisfied with them or to avoid trouble.

But Wang Bo was very satisfied with his face, and with his strength, he would never encounter any trouble in this world.

Therefore, Wang Bo had enough confidence to enter the game with his real face.

So Wang Bo only adjusted his physique.

He tried to adjust his in-game physique to match his real-life one, but after several attempts, he found that the game data could not replicate his actual physique.

Wang Bo's current physique was the perfect golden ratio, even more perfect than the game's data.

Helpless, Wang Bo had to adjust his physique slightly, making it as close as possible to his real proportions.

Then, he successfully entered the game.

Upon entering the game, Wang Bo appeared in a huge plaza. A circular and ornate fountain bloomed behind him, releasing streams of water shooting into the sky.

Wang Bo looked around and found that this game world seemed not much different from the real world.

Everything looked so real.

He clenched his fist. That surging and powerful strength, as if one punch could pierce the earth, had vanished.

Now, Wang Bo could not use solar energy, could not feel the Cosmo, and could not cast magic. Apart from having slightly faster reflexes than others, he was like an ordinary person.

This feeling was novel.

After all, over the years, Wang Bo's power had soared continuously, from an ordinary person to a superman. With a little force, he could destroy the earth or scatter streets and humans into pieces.

Suddenly becoming an ordinary person again naturally felt somewhat novel.

It was as if he had returned to before his transmigration.

He was now wearing a black T-shirt and dark blue jeans, one of the few free outfits available when creating an account. After all, this game required spending money.

Want a good-looking appearance? Sure, pay up.

Want nice clothes? Sure, pay up.

Want useful items? Sure, pay up.

Without money, you're just a loser in the game. Not only will you not experience the joy of gaming, but you'll also find it hard to move an inch. This is no joke; it's the truth.

For example, right now, Wang Bo's location was... Incipio!

And this so-called Incipio was actually a planet.

Oasis was a massive game, no longer confined to a single planet or country, but elevated to a universe-level game.

By the way, this Incipio was a planet located at the center of Oasis, also known as the... newbie village!

On Incipio, aside from chatting with others, you could only visit the globally synchronized shops scattered everywhere. If players wanted to go to more interesting places, they had to pay a teleportation fee.

If you had no money, you could only wander around Incipio.

From this, one could see how realistic this game was: money lets you travel the world, poverty leaves you stuck.

Fortunately, Wang Bo had money.

When he entered the game, he had already asked Friday to deposit one hundred million into his game account. As for where this money came from, it wasn't difficult at all.

Basically, it came from bad debts and dead accounts within banks—money that no one would ever claim.

So Friday just moved a finger and took one hundred million from there into Wang Bo's game account. No one would notice, and no one would investigate.

Wang Bo could freely spend this money and experience the joy of being rich.

The first thing he did was to buy some clothes. The free clothes the game gave didn't suit Wang Bo's taste, so he planned to buy a few nice outfits. After all, clothes make the man, and a monk relies on his robe.

A good set of clothes could elevate a person's spirit by a whole level.

Anyway, Wang Bo had more money than he could spend.

More than ten minutes later, following the system's instructions, he arrived at a shop that looked quite grand. As he pushed open the door, the glass door opened from the inside, and a pair of men and women in black clothes and sunglasses walked out of the shop.

Wang Bo's eyes couldn't help but twitch, because the outfits of this pair were too classic.

Neo, the savior of The Matrix, and the heroine Trinity were dressed exactly like that.

This made Wang Bo sigh, "People these days really know how to have fun."
