Just as Lilith took another graceful step toward him—her presence thick with unspoken desire—Su Ping swiftly raised his hand in a silent gesture to halt her.
Lilith paused. Her alluring smile faded into a subtle pout as her crimson eyes flickered with disappointment. A trace of grievance lingered in her expression, as if she had just been denied a cherished gift. Despite that, she obediently stepped back.
Su Ping didn't even glance at her reaction.
His mind was elsewhere.
"Open the chat," he commanded internally.
At once, a blue translucent screen unfolded before his eyes, glowing softly with system-like precision.
[System Menu]
• Mails
• Friends
• Regional Chat
• Market
Without hesitation, Su Ping tapped on the Regional Chat option.
[System Notification]: Registered successfully in Regional Chat No. 1002624
Instantly, a flood of messages began to stream across a new pane that hovered before him:
Anonymous 6: Why am I here in this different world…?
Anonymous 7557: Help me please! I'm a millionaire—I'll give you all my money! Just send me back!!
Anonymous 7857: I was in class just a moment ago… what the hell is going on?!
Anonymous 9766: Who brought us here?! Why?! What is this place?!
Chen Fan: Everyone, calm down. We're not in the modern world anymore. We've all become Lords. The sooner you accept that, the better. Focus on awakening your talents and troops. That's the only way to survive now.
Anonymous 86578: I awakened a D-rank talent. My starting troops are Goblins…
Anonymous 9769: I got an F-rank talent, and my troops are Slimes… Slimes! How do I survive with jelly blobs?! Someone help! 😭
Anonymous 9768: I've got a B-rank talent and Orcs as my initial troops. Brother Chen Fan, what troops do you have?
Chen Fan: I awakened an S-rank talent. My starting troops are Paladins, and my talent can triple their combat power for ten minutes.
Anonymous 8766: ENVY.jpg
Su Ping scrolled through the messages, reading silently with a steady gaze. A clear picture was beginning to form in his mind.
So… most people have talents ranging from F to B rank. There's one guy with S-rank, but no mention of SSS… or Divine.
He exhaled slowly, a cold smile curling at the corners of his lips.
Divine rank… no wonder the system didn't even bother to explain it. I'm in a league of my own.
He had just confirmed it,his talent wasn't just rare, it was legendary. While others were summoning Goblins, Slimes, and Orcs, he had summoned the Queen of Vampires herself.
In this new world, where power defined survival, and where Lords could rise or fall based on the luck of their talent, Su Ping realized something crucial:
He wasn't just lucky…
He was chosen.
As the chat continued to buzz with confusion, panic, and envy, Su Ping closed the panel. He turned his eyes toward Lilith, who was still watching him with a lingering pout.
He smiled faintly.
"Let's begin."
