《I Am Your Sister》


 Chapter 1 - Miracle

    Chapter 1 ¨C Miracle


    Several chunks of plaster packed with mud and sand were piled up to build a wall, with scratches, cracks and imperfections on each side. The ashen yellow coloured sand was mottled on the wall like trails of tears.


    The cement at the corner had crumbled away and the rusted steel bars holding the wall together could be seen.


    There was a vast expanse of yellow sand as far as the eye could see. Four or five of such wall panels were put together at the foot of a mound. It appeared lofty and as if it was the way it ought to be.


    With the walls encircling, a big box-like object was placed in the middle of the empty place.


    As one approached, you could see that the walls were filled with withered ashy brown sea-buckthorn. The jagged broken branches filled the gaps between the walls closely, while its edges and corners effectively warded off all kinds of hostile visitors.


    The box-like thing appeared to be big in the narrow, small space surrounded by these walls, but it was actually a small hut made of eight thick boards ¨C about two or three square meters.


    The sun was boiling and the temperature of the boards were very hot, causing the inside of the hut to be as sultry as a stove.


    There was only a small window at the top of the cabin and now it was blocked by dry grass and the light appeared a rather dark orange.


    There weren¡¯t many things in the tiny wooden hut. A bed on the left, a small table on one side and a large tin box on the right.


    There was a figure lying down on the bed, minute breaths the only indication that this individual was still alive.


    The plank bed creaked.


    Li Xin sat up, a little dazed at first and her eyes unfocused.


    Then, she lifted up her arm and looked at her wrist,


    The cold, hard and wide metal watch band made the white wrists appear even more thin and weak.


    9:54.


    ¡­.It had been twenty eight days and four hours since she¡¯d come back.


    Li Xin got up leisurely, barefoot against the warm boards, and tiptoed to move aside the leaves at the window, the sunlight leaking out of that small space.


    ¡®Creak, creak, creak.¡¯


    A series of sounds. The bed was also made up of several wooden boards which were not very strong made noises at every turn.


    Raising her hands and exerting force, two very simple movements. Li Xin spent nearly half a minute just to perform these actions.


    She left the grass on the ground as usual.


    The soul and the body, were in fact like machines and software. If incompatible, it would be very inconvenient, like the current situation of Li Xin.


    The strength of her soul which had returned from later ages was obviously stronger than this 17 year old body. Although it was from the same source, it was the same difference as that of Windows 1 to Windows 10.


    When Li Xin had first arrived, she had been unable to even support her limbs.


    It was a totally unexpected joy. She hadn¡¯t expected that ¡°he¡± could completely bring back the soul from later ages. Compared with the benefits, this small trouble was not worth mentioning.


    It was evident to her that her body and soul were slowly fusing.


    It was almost time¡­.. Li Xin stood on tiptoe and looked out of the window, her eyebrows knitting against the strong light.


    Turning around, she squatted down slowly, took out a wooden cup from under the tin case, then opened the lid of the tin case and scooped out water from the inside.


    The mouth of the cup scraped against the surface of the tin case, making a hissing sound.


    The water in the case was only a shallow layer and was also heated by the heat from the outside world.


    Li Xin wasn¡¯t anxious about this. She raised her head and poured down the whole cup.


    Then, she dragged the table by the bed, raised her legs and stepped on it. Raising her arms, she pushed the topmost plank away.


    The bright sunlight rushed in from all directions along the opening and refracted on the fine beads of sweat on Li Xin¡¯s forehead.


    Releasing her hands, Li Xin simply supported the thick plank with the top of her head, raising two hands to block the light above her eyes and squinting as she looked out.


    She maintained this position for a while.


    In the distance, she could see a small black speck coming from the endless yellow sands on the horizon.


    It was here-


    Li Xin looked up and stared at the object in the air without blinking.


    ¡°Destination: District 3179, 74.108.29.¡±


    ¡°¡±Arrived.¡±


    The thing quickly came to the front, shaped like a big bee, and the mechanical wings behind ¡°buzzed¡± fiercely.


    The round head of the ¡°big bee¡± was equipped with a coin sized ¡°mouth¡±, and it made a mechanical sound when opening and closing.


    ¡°Hello,Bee Express wishes you well.¡±


    It hovered in the air, both if its eyes twisted and aimed at Li Xin¡¯s face and scanned ¨C ¡®di¡¯ ¨C target verification completed.


    After, it said ¡°hello¡± once again.


    Then, the bee-like robot turned its head and its claw like limbs pulled out a box from its huge abdomen.


    ¡°Please sign for your express delivery. Little Bee 27795 is at your service.¡±


    Li Xin reached out her hand and pressed it on its head, and took the box.


    ¡°¡®Di¡¯ ¨C fingerprint verification succeeded. Signing completed.¡±


    It was finally delivered. Li Xin held the green, fiber box in her hand and blinked.


    Although she was aware that this green light was a bonus from the relevant departments, Li Xin still maintained some inexplicable feeling about crossing this high ¡°wall¡±, perhaps the sole express product in Zone 3197.


    She opened the package single handedly and took out the metal product, like an eye guard with a silvery white lustre.


    She put the empty box back into the ¡°Little Bee¡± and received a piece of blue candy, and a flat mechanical sounding ¡°thank you.¡± Li Xin held the things in her hand, bowed her head and sat down.


    With the ¡®buzz¡¯ sound, the ¡°courier¡± soon disappeared as fast as it had appeared.


    Li Xin strenuously controlled her trembling fingers to spread out and join together her newly received things.


    This small metal product was a holographic sensor used to connect to the recently launched holographic online game ¡°Miracle.¡±


    Of excellent quality and a high cost. In fact, if it weren¡¯t for the state¡¯s almost loss oriented promotion, Li Xin couldn¡¯t afford it at all.


    Finally, she received it before the server started.


    It was 10:21. The server would open at 11 on the dot.


    Miracle¡­.


    Li Xin sat cross legged on the plank bed, placed the connector on her leg and casually put the candy into her mouth.


    It tasted like grass.


    Her face was small, her skin white and clear, seeming delicate and fragile. The pale pink mouth was naturally slightly pursed. Even if she didn¡¯t smile, she appeared to have a slight smile. The candy bulged up her cheeks a little and her pair of dark brown eyes were clear. When she looked at people, she appeared especially pure and innocent.


    In the simple and sultry cabin, the little girl in the ragged grey blouse and candy was waiting quietly.


    In her last life, she had found the wrong person, but this time, she couldn¡¯t be wrong again.


    Xu Yan.


    Li Xin slowly recited the name in a low voice. The characters pouring out of her lips came out soft and hoarse.


    Must find her brother.


    Remember Auntie Du¡¯s words.


    Find your brother, and protect him as if he is your Auntie.

 Chapter 2

    Chapter 2


    Thirty-nine years had already passed since ¡°Doomsday¡±, which was not a very long time. Most of the people who had experienced that period were still alive, and it seemed that suddenly, a new generation of people had sprung up all over the world.


    This chaotic period had lasted nine years.


    When the federation was established, they established a new way of numbering the years for the sake of auspiciousness, which was called the New Era.


    Now, it was thirty years later.


    In regard to the survivability of the human race, this ¡°Doomsday¡± was really not as serious as all sorts of science fiction had described. To be precise, it was similar to a highly contagious flu that had quickly spread all over the world and killed off nearly a quarter of the population.


    It was indeed very grave. In all of history, there hadn¡¯t been any other virus as intense as this one. Several countries were caught off guard and those with relatively poor government emergency response capabilities were filled with corpses.


    However, this pandemic had not resulted in any regime changes of a global scale, nor had it affected the overall development process of mankind.


    Objectively, it had even allowed the survivors to have more natural resources.


    The virus was finally defeated after countries all over the world joined forces to fight against the virus.


    Within the population of people infected by the virus, a very small number of individuals luckily survived and produced antibodies.


    Initially, they were considered to be extremely valuable, with precious data for the fight against the virus. However, after the successful development and distribution of vaccines, the status of this special group of people carrying antibodies became particularly embarrassing.


    Obviously, they couldn¡¯t be allowed to mix with ordinary people. Under the terrorizing effect of the pandemic, just the mere mention of them might have scared the survivors of the disaster.


    A group of people even suggested euthanasia, but there were also objections raised against this approach out of humanitarianism.


    The result of the final negotiation was that these people would be collectively taken to a special area and locked up, where after they would build a high, electrically charged wall, and be isolated from the rest of the world.


    This area was numbered 3197 and had been invisible in the world map ever since its establishment.


    Later, it became a hiding place for some desperate people who had no way out.


    Initially, there had been about 30 antigen carriers placed there. There were regular federal food supplies every three months and there were enough resources for everyone.


    The prerequisite being that there were no ¡°outsiders¡±.


    All the people who fled inside were invariably vicious people, making 3197 a complete place of chaos.


    Li Xin was one of the children born within District 3197, whose parents were unknown. At the age of six, she was adopted by a woman surnamed Du.


    In fact, these newborn children were no longer strictly infectious carriers, but it was obviously impossible for someone to take them away.


    This Madam Du had a husband and a son and had a very influential family. The antigen carriers were not euthanized in the end, largely due to the efforts of such families.


    However, no matter how powerful you were, you would never be able to compete with the whole world. So, Madam Du entered 3197 without any mishap. Merely that she had family members outside sparing no effort for her, so her life inside was better than other people¡¯s. For example, she had a separate house and supplies, and there were even two bodyguards in the beginning.


    Although the two bodyguards died of the virus shortly after they came in.


    Madam Du had passed away at the end of October 2009. On her deathbed, she had told Li Xin that if she could escape, she must go and find her son.


    She couldn¡¯t even remember the names of her son and husband due to her aging and illness, so she gave Li Xin a necklace with a picture of her baby son sitting on her husband¡¯s shoulder.


    This picture had been badly worn and blurred over the years.


    In the novel that the mysterious man had shown to Li Xin in her last life, the male lead Lu Zigui was framed for killing his enemy¡¯s child and fled to district 3197.¡¯


    At that time, he had been seriously injured and had just stepped into Madam Du¡¯s backyard. Initially, he had intended to kill the people and steal their supplies, however, he had inadvertently stumbled upon this scene. He temporarily pretended to be ¡°Madam Du¡¯s son¡±, and naturally, moved in and took over Madam Du¡¯s house and supplies as his own.


    And when Li Xin was 17 years old, she took on the important role of the protagonist¡¯s harem member as the ¡°pure loli childhood sweetheart and faithful and devoted little follower¡± character, which greatly satisfied the majority of the readers who preferred the ¡°cultivation system¡± (1)


    In the 30th year of the newly implemented era, the federal government released the first holographic game ¡°Miracle¡±. Moreover, they vigorously promoted the game and strangely attached great importance to the game, so much so that they put forward many excessive policies. For example, they gave a preferential discount to those citizens who had Federal health IDs in regard to purchasing a Miracle sensor for the first time and would be purchased automatically unless it is canceled by the citizen. Furthermore, there was a special positioning function to provide a delivery facility line, which could be said to be a specialized delivery system that provided its service whenever, wherever, and, however.


    Madam Du might possibly have been the only person in District 3197 with a health ID, due to her family outside.


    In the last life, this precious holographic sensor was used as the ticket for the male lead to becoming a powerful man. Obviously, he would not have such good luck in this life.


    The first thing that Li Xin did when she came back was to take Madam Du¡¯s ID card and necklace, before silently leaving in the night and moving to an uninhabited region where she built herself a shabby little house as she patiently waited for the arrival of ¡°Miracle¡±.


    She wasn¡¯t really incapable of dealing with a wounded man, but she merely felt that the fewer complications there were, the better. Presently, she only had one important objective, which was to accomplish Auntie Du¡¯s dying wish and find her son, who was also Li Xin¡¯s brother in name. Nothing else was of importance.


    Moreover, as the ¡°protagonist¡±, Lu Zigui was a variable character, so it would obviously not be sensible to hastily come into contact with him.


    Author¡¯s Note


    -I was asked to explain the timeline.


    Lu Zigui originally planned to rob Madam Du and happened to see her dying. He had a brainwave and felt that there was another way to go about things, so he went back and observed the situation in secret before coming back and claiming to be her son. There was a short space of time in between both incidents. He was injured all over when he had run away to District 3197 and felt he should observe the situation before rushing in and claiming himself to be her relative.


    Li Xin left the night after her foster mother was buried. That is to say after Lu Zhigui came back to carry out his plan, there was no one left so he had no choice but to go back.


    There is a time gap in the middle.


    -It isn¡¯t right to treat people in such a manner. Advise the readers to read the novel and keep your thoughts to yourself.


    -This refers to a kind of game where you cultivate the main character to develop according to your tastes.


    TL Note


    I would just like to mention that the author started this story in late 2018 and finished it around mid-2019 before the pandemic. :)))

 Chapter 3

    Chapter 3


    At 10:59, Li Xin was sitting cross-legged as she put on the icy silvery-white headpiece, and closed her eyes.


    Within the small, dim, wooden space, you could see a little girl. The headpiece she was wearing flashed with a green light, and a layer of transparent protective film activated, enveloping her whole body.


    *Beep* ¡ª ¡°The server has launched ¨C The protection system has been activated.¡± A pleasant, feminine voice sounded in her ear.


    The special data lines inside the sensor connected with her nerves at lightning speed. Li Xin merely felt a cool sensation between her eyebrows, and once she opened her eyes, she was already in a different world.


    Before her, there was a lofty and resplendent hall. The floor was made of pitch-black stone bricks, with flickering lights like stars hidden within; the walls, the tall pillars and even all the furniture were the same frosty, silvery white.


    The whole hall appeared cool and exquisite.


    Dressed in plain cotton, crescent white clothes with long sleeves, Li Xin stood barefoot in the middle of the hall.


    ¡°Hello, Player 07. Welcome to ¡®Miracle¡¯. I am your guide, CS Agent No. 6666, (1) at your service.¡±


    In the wake of a dazzling beam, a warm ball of light appeared in front of Li Xin.


    ¡­¡­You?


    Li Xin slightly narrowed her eyes. This form of address, along with the service agent number 6666, made her recall some rumors from later times.


    There were millions of guides in ¡®Miracle¡¯, and most of them were AI. It was alleged that amongst these guides, there existed some¡­. special beings.


    Fortunately, supposing that she could meet those people in advance, maybe she would be able to leave earlier.


    Li Xin turned over a lot of ideas in her mind, but her face didn¡¯t express her thoughts by even one iota. She blinked and raised her gaze to look at the guide.


    The voice coming from the ball of light had a vague, male tone, which ought to have been processed on the basis of the original voice.


    This guide was obviously a concise and comprehensive type, directly going straight for the account registration. In her previous life¡¯s experience, the game began with a short, animated introduction.


    ¡°Entering the registration process and scanning the player.¡±


    There was a flash of light, followed by a ¡°Beep¡± sound. The scan had been finished in the blink of an eye, and the results had come out.


    A vibrant identity information panel was displayed in front of Li Xin.


    Player Number: 07


    Sex: Female


    Scan Result: Rank [S+]


    Optional Profession [All]


    Recommended Profession [All]


    Nickname: To be filled in


    Li Xin faintly quirked her lips. S+, surprising, yet not surprising. In her last life, she had barely reached B, which was already a rare existence within the whole Federation.


    This scan essentially explored the player¡¯s mental strength. From the beginning, the mental strength of mankind was low in itself. Even the male protagonist, Lu Zhigui was merely a B+, no more.


    There were a few seconds of silence.


    Li Xin slightly raised her eyes, and the ball of light coughed and said, ¡°Please fill in the nickname.¡±


    A yellow scroll and a quill pen appeared before Li Xin, floating at a height within her reach.


    Li Xin grasped the pen, watching attentively as the scroll unfurled, and paused slightly.


    She filled it in exactly as she had in her last life.


    ID: 97 (2)


    In the dozen seconds it took Li Xin to fill in her ID, a certain mysterious platform:


    6666: Ah WTF, are the aboriginals here that fierce! I was the first to produce an S+, too scary!


    7777: ?


    5555: ?


    4444: ?


    2222: Real or fake. Picked up a treasure???


    9999: How come I feel like this swindler is trickling people?


    8888: ? Why is mine an F.


    6666: @9999 Stupid bastard.


    1111: It¡¯s reasonable to say that those born as S+ need a core star region to emerge. I¡¯ll arrange for a re-examination.


    6666: Black hearted boss, good afternoon.


    7777: Black hearted boss, good afternoon.


    5555: +1


    4444: +2


    3333: +3


    1111: Scram.


    ¡­¡­


    Knowing nothing about the gossip she had aroused, Li Xin used the brush to write down her ID, stroke by stroke. She looked at the nickname that had been refreshed on the information panel and calmly released the pen.


    The pen lit up with a flash and disappeared into smoke and dust.


    ¡°Entering character attribute assignment.¡± The indistinct voice from the ball of light said.


    Okay, here are the numbers I could find slang meanings for. Orz.


    666 (mostly it¡¯s used as 666, though other forms like 6666, 666666 are also widely used) is firstly used in online video games, League of Legends for example. The reason why people use 6 is because it sounds exactly like ¡°Áï(liu)¡± which in most part of China means ¡°good/skillful at doing something¡±. Hence, in video games, when someone types 666, it¡¯s a compliment to the player, saying the player is very skillful and good at playing games. ( Got this explanation from Quora.)


    7777 was issued to show respect for clearlove players. This is some slang terminology in reference to League of Legends. For more info, please look up 7777 on google.


    5555 stands for crying. The character for the number 5 is Îå (wu) which sounds like crying sounds.


    2222 is slang meaning stupid and foolish.


    Okay, that¡¯s all I managed to find. I think mostly it refers to internet slang and League of Legends gaming slang. If anyone else knows, let me know in the comments and I¡¯ll add it to the footnote.


    1.Nine seven, not ninety seven.

    Chapter 4


    ¡°Player has been rated as +S class, therefore, all professions are available and there is no recommended scheme for distributing points.¡±


    The ball of light read out this sentence drily, word by word, in a wooden manner. After the explanation, a translucent character attribute panel was cast before her.


    Li Xin raised her gaze and looked.


    [Character] 97


    Attribute points: 20


    [Attributes]


    [Body] 10 [+] (Blood volume and defense)


    [Agility] 10 [+] (Movement and attack speed)


    [Spirit] 20 [+] (Mental strength)


    [Strength] 10 [+] (Attack power)


    The scan rating was Miracle¡¯s evaluation of a player¡¯s mental strength. The result of this evaluation was very important as it affected not only the player¡¯s initial attribute points, but also influenced the player¡¯s upgrade points.


    This kind of setting had already divided players into different levels almost from the very beginning. There was a distinct disparity in strength between players with different ratings, with rare exceptions. This was very strange for a game.


    And this strange rule without a doubt caused a huge controversy once it was found out, with the players in disbelief. However, calling customer service to complain and denouncing people over the internet was all useless.


    What? Call the game company? It was made by the government and directly under their jurisdiction.


    What? Stop playing? Miracle was the world¡¯s first and only holographic game. From the very beginning, almost the entire population joined the game. Even if they didn¡¯t particularly want to play, they still wanted to take a look. And those with keen sense for profit who had perceived something from the attitude of the government, from financial groups to speculators, all invested in the game. Later, playing Miracle slowly equated to ¡®Network¡¯. Don¡¯t go online? Was that possible?


    Li Xin¡¯s expression appeared unchanged, but a streak of surprise flashed across her eyes.


    20 assignable attribute points? Sure enough, the gap between ranks was like the heavens. In her previous life, her B level rank only had 8 attribute points per upgrade.


    As Li Xin remembered, the ranks were A, B, C, D and E, five levels. Mankind generally ranked from C-E.


    After pondering, she blinked and sounded out, ¡°What¡¯s the difference between the ratings?¡±


    If she had asked this question in her previous lifetime, the agent might not have given her an answer, but this time-


    The ball of light, 6666, shone in silence for a while. Wondering whether this belonged to the scope of answering novice questions, the agent called out a table of grading and corresponding points to show to Li Xin.


    Evaluation Result (Rank) / Obtained Points (Per Level) / Base Points (Sum)


    [S]/20/10


    [A]/15/5


    [B]/10/0


    [C]/5/0


    [D]/4/0


    [E]/3/0


    [F]/2/0


    Not waiting for Li Xin to raise more questions, 6666 proactively added, ¡°The + sign after the points indicates that the sum value has exceeded the base rank value. For example; your mental strength.¡±


    ¡°Additionally, players can choose to adjust their appearance, 2% per attribute point.¡±


    Li Xin thanked the guide cleverly and expressed that there was no need to change the appearance. She then reached out and distributed 11 points to the spirit column, and 3 points each for the others.


    Points allocation completed, click ¡®X¡¯.


    There was no career selection in Miracle. A player¡¯s skill preferences and career trends were explored within the game by themselves. The novice guidance process was merely for registering the player before sending them into the game.


    However, simply out of humanitarian care for the new players, the system would suggest a career recommendation and restrictions. The main gist of which was; if a player¡¯s basic points are too low, some occupations would be unsuitable, and if a certain value of the player was high, it might be suitable for them to select a particular career.


    The base attribute value stood for more than one specific attribute.


    In addition to upgrading, there were other ways for players to gain more points, such as; a boss¡¯ first kill, mission completion points etc¡­ However, only the upgrade points can be allocated by the players themselves, and the rest of the points will be automatically distributed according to the proportion of the player¡¯s base attribute values.


    Players with a base value of zero need to obtain a non upgrade attribute point to know their basic allocation scheme. In essence, the system recommendation was for such players.


    In her previous life, Li Xin had seen a lot of people who chose to ignore the system¡¯s recommendations and tried to do it with ¡°a unique approach¡±. For example, those who chose to play as  warriors realized that they had added too little to their ¡°strength¡± attribute, those who played as the assassins lacked the ¡°agility¡± attribute¡­ They had all managed to fuck themselves over, without fail.


    You couldn¡¯t redistribute the attribute points in Miracle, so there was no regretting the result.


    Fortunately, there was also no occupation restriction, so players could choose to change their occupational direction any time if they deemed that their points were unsuitable. They would simply have to find ways to deal with the loss of equipment and skills. The equipment could still be sold, but the skill book would be gone after you learnt it.


    [Character] 97

    Character attribute allocation completed. Data generation in progress.


    6666 said, ¡°Player No. 07 is about to enter the novice village, Wishing you a delightful gaming experience.¡±

    TL Note: Hey guys, sorry about the late update. Had some shit going on in life, but it¡¯s mostly settled now, so you can expect regular updates ????

 Chapter 5

    Translated by Shiny


    Chapter 5


    In the blink of an eye, Li Xin, her body clothed in plain, cotton clothes, was thrown into a dark green grassland.


    The soft blades of grass underneath her body were damp, the sunlight warm, and the blue skies were clear.


    Li Xin propped up her hand against the ground and pushed herself up. She lowered her head and started dusting off her body. The juice from the grass had already stained her white clothes with spots of dark green.


    Li Xin stood still and took a deep breath.


    Miracle, I¡¯m back.


    With a thought, a roll of sheepskin that had been fastened by her waist floated out with a ¡® whoosh ¡® and unfurled in front of her to reveal a map.


    [Region Map: Gu Hu Town, 247,146]


    The yellow map was drawn with thick lines. Li Xin waved her hand and the map furled itself back and flew back into its original position at her waist.


    These actions were all accomplished by the so-called ¡°spirit¡± force. With a thought, such actions would take place.


    Similar to the ancient legends of internal force, moves that can part the surrounding falling leaves and petals, and the strength that can send a person flying.


    This is [Strength]. Advance to attack your foe, and retreat to defend oneself.


    In the early stages, nobody had realized this. Since the holographic game was so realistic, people were unable to help bringing in their real life habits to the game.


    Who would ever think that they could be a ¡°Wuxia Master¡± in real life? Those with chuunibyou (1) syndrome didn¡¯t count.


    Miracle had the same goal as other online games, but there were some differences ar( at ) its core.


    Not mentioning the new holographic form, it also had ¡°magic arts¡± and ¡°martial combat¡±, and neither of them had specific occupational designations. There were attributes, skills, equipment, and blood bars.


    What was more, the way of fighting in Miracle was quite different from other traditional games.


    These things did not have so-called ¡°official methods¡± to warn the players and the general game ¡°novice guide¡± still required players to explore for themselves.


    However, there would always be some people in the world with ideas and fantasies. In the past lifetime, it took only three months to discover the effect of this ¡°mental strength¡± and to test out that its power was determined by the ¡°strength¡± attribute, thus leading to the martial arts mode of flying around everywhere.


    It was just that everyone¡¯s levels were uneven. Some people struggled for a long time, but their action of taking out an object like Li Xin just did was not even neat. Whereas some people had already taught themselves the qinggong ¡°walking on water¡±, sword energy/jianqi was also formed when they brandished their swords.


    The Chinese understood once they heard it. Oh, the so-called attack strength was actually Internal Energy.


    You must click [Strength], click with all your might!


    Then, what was [Spirit]?


    If you were to say that [Strength] is to break the spiritual force out of the body and turn it into a blade, turn it into a sharp/penetrating aggressiveness; then [Spirit] was to absorb, sort out and keep the chaotic spiritual force within, and then release it with a method¡ª this method was by using a Skill.


    It was like both a physical and magical attack. However, there was no distinguishing between which type of damage it inflicted.


    In Miracle, players who mainly had [Strength] were Warriors, and players who mainly had [Spirit] were Mages.


    There was a profound meaning to the attack settings of Miracle. As for the specific meaning, Li Xin had only had a shallow contact in her past life, and the novel she had read at the end of it had been focused on her own life and death.


    But they would see about it later. She already had a guess at the bottom of her heart, but she would have to wait and observe to confirm her theory.


    In Miracle, Skills were hard to come by.


    Simple ones such as ¡°Hack¡±, ¡°Chop¡±, and ¡°Strike¡± could be purchased in Novice Villages. The price would probably empty out the majority of a player¡¯s assets before they left Novice Village.


    Advanced Skills such as ¡°Successive Stab¡±, or ¡°Double Chop¡± might certainly drop from the elite monsters outside of the city. The odds of this were probable.


    Then, the ¡°Big Move¡± rank similar to Skill Books such as those which carry additional damage to attacks could be received through tasks or from drops of Copy Bosses.


    These were Skill Books in the line of ¡°Physics¡±. ¡°Magic¡± type Skill Books were even more wretched.


    In the first place, they didn¡¯t sell any Magic type Skill Books in Novice Village. This pitted a lot of Mage players with more [Spirit] points, leaving them with no choice but to weep.


    They were players too. For those who added [Strength], their spiritual forces were released out so they could lift a stick and fight the monsters. Whereas for the ones who added [spirit], their spiritual force had been kept within but there were no skills to release them, so when they attacked with a stick, it caused less than half the damage as compared to the others.


    Want Skills? One could only try to look for elite monsters outside of the city.


    However, the attack power was low and they couldn¡¯t be beaten! There was no solution.


    What was more, the attribute of [Strength] was required. Even if you were to master [Spirit], you would still need to distribute a few points to [Strength], otherwise you would have no Strength Qi. While other people are leaping up on roofs and flying across water, you walk underwater¡­¡­ to play with snakes?


    And yet, Warriors don¡¯t have this worry. Add full points to [Strength], add it to death.


    To sum up, thanks to the degree of deception, the number of expert Mages in Miracle was about one in every hundred.
