Chapter 21, I shouldn't have read those fan fictions back then!
Although I know that most of the world comes from fantasy works that I have come into contact with in my previous life, Pan Long thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure out where it came from.
After traveling to this world for sixteen years, he still remembers the major events of his previous life, but how could he remember everything such as what games he played and what contents were there in?
After all, he is neither a "history enthusiast" who can memorize the Twenty-Four Histories in the legend, nor is he an ordinary college student who is proficient in all aspects of the worker, peasant, mining, merchant, military, civilian, medical education. He just inexplicably feels familiar with the world he is in.
He can only confirm that this is another fantasy world of swords and magic, and it should be in European and American style - you can tell by looking at the characters' appearance and habits.
There are great differences between European and American styles and Asian styles, especially the image of the characters. On the one hand, they pursue three-dimensionality and use shadows and dark tones to perfection, proclaiming that "even if it is a fantasy, it must be painted like the real"; on the other hand, they pursue strong expressiveness, and care about allowing the audience to grasp the key points they want to express at first sight, and they don't value the realism so much.
The most obvious thing in the character image is the degree of "beauty". Even in the world of "swords and tragic songs", almost everyone has a good facial features, and it is not uncommon for handsome men and beautiful women to be seen. In this world, the three people he saw... cannot be said to be unfair, but they definitely do not belong to the style of handsome men and beautiful women.
For example, the old man who gave him the strongest impression of him definitely doesn't look pretty, but he has a feeling of "those who should look like this when they are old". Apart from the European-style appearance, the sense of reality was definitely not last time.
And the little girls who say this are also the feeling of a lively girl that can be seen everywhere. They definitely do not have the feeling of Lilina in "Sword and Lesbian Song" that looks straight to the men's good football area, and they just stick a label on their body and write the word "Shizaka".
With this judgment, he can greatly narrow the scope of memories and comparisons he needs.
In addition, he also confirmed one thing.
These three temporary fellows were in trouble, and there were still many troubles.
The most obvious evidence is that after they chatted for a while, the three of them still had not reported their own homes and did not even tell their names.
During this period, the girl with short pink hair once said "We are..." but was immediately interrupted by the old man's cough. Then she reacted and changed the subject very stiffly, talking about the situation of the city in the west - or fortress.
It is called "protective candlelight" and is the most famous palace of knowledge in the world. It contains a large number of precious books. It is said that all the knowledge in the world, as long as it is written, can be found here - if it cannot be found here, most of it cannot be found elsewhere.
This should be an exaggeration, but as the center of the God of Knowledge Church, this fortress has a huge influence on the entire continent. Even if it is called a "holy land of knowledge", there is probably no problem.
The three of them should have lived in it for many years and are very familiar with it. When the girl talks about the allusions in this castle, she can be said to be able to tell her.
But when Pan Long mentioned "Why leave" casually, the girl seemed a little confused. She turned to look at the old man, hoping to get an answer from the old man.
The old man remained silent, his mouth was pursed tightly, his eyes were heavy and worried.
Pan Long could see that he was full of worry.
This made Pan Long a little confused. Although the old man was taciturn, his temperament and eyes all showed that he was a person with a story. "Having a story" often means "strength". How could an old man with a story be so afraid?
Could it be that like "Sword and Lesson Song", facing the strong enemies in the middle and late stages at the beginning, can only escape?
Thinking of this, Pan Long felt a little nervous.
It is definitely not a joke to meet a boss at the beginning. He can win the last time, which does not mean that he can win this time. And as of common sense, it is normal not to win if he wins. If he wins - how can he continue to make up the story?
(I need to strengthen my strength!)
He said to himself secretly.
The question is, how to enhance your strength?
After thinking for a while, he tried to silently recite in his mind and open the character panel.
A transparent light curtain appeared in front of him. In addition to the content that he had already been familiar with before, there was also a "switch" button on the light curtain.
Pan Long was delighted.
(Very good! This is a game world!)
This world is nothing more than film and television works, written works or game works. Forget the first two, in the game world, theoretically every character will have its own character panel.
Since he has come and since he has become a member of this world, of course there will be a character panel that belongs to him.
However, he did not expect that the character panels of the two worlds could not be integrated and had to switch...

Slide your fingers over, and the next page is about weapons.
This page is full of various weapon patterns, neatly arranged. Some are empty behind the patterns, while others have different numbers of silver stars behind them. It is particularly worth mentioning that behind a pair of crossed fists, in addition to four silver stars, a larger Venus is added.
He tried to focus his spirit on it and then received feedback - that was his proficiency with various weapons. The number of silver stars represents the difference in proficiency. The only Venus star represents that he can gain additional benefits by focusing on this weapon in this life.
He summarized it roughly and summarized the results himself.
【Weapon proficiency: empty-hand combat 4, knife 1, longbow 2, short bow 1, spear 1, dagger 3, throw 3】
【Weapon Specialty: Empty-hand Fighting】
When he swiped his fingers over, the next page was all auxiliary skills. He looked at it roughly and basically listed what he knew. There were many, and he couldn't count them for a while. There were always thirty or forty types. There were no levels, only "having" or "not".
Any auxiliary skills he has are highlighted above the list. What he doesn't have is the dark-toned skill below the list.
Overall, there will be more than there will be.
(It turns out to be a famous saying, my life is limited, but knowledge is limited! It is necessary to rush to end with limitlessness, but if you have the conditions, you may consider learning more...)
Slide your fingers again and the spell page appears. This page is empty and has nothing.
The next page is magic, and there is nothing else.
Pan Long smiled bitterly, looking at his attributes, probably magic, etc., he will never have anything to do with him in his life...
Turning the page again is a "special ability". He only has one special ability, which is "true energy".
[True Qi: The wonderful special energy can be improved through various ways of training. When using this power, you can choose a variety of different gain effects, and different amplifications are generated because of the different strength and consumption speed of true Qi.]
[Resident increase effect: Physical constitution +2/no more than 20]
(It seems that the internal strength I have worked hard is quite useful, but I don’t know how high the true qi increase of the innate master can reach... Like my father, the physical growth rate should be +3 or even +4, right? The upper limit is probably not limited to 20, maybe 21 or 22...)
The next page is the equipment bar, which is not much different from the version of "Sword and Sorrow".
The last page is a log, and there is no difference.
But in the log, Pan Long found the information he urgently needed now.
[You join the adventure team of Gelian, Chanem and Eimmon, and the captain is Gelian.]
【Your adventure squad is heading from Candle Castle to the Arm of Friendship.】
Seeing these two lines of words, Pan Long suddenly realized what world he had come to this time!
(Ha! It turned out to be "The Adventures of the Hero of the Insider"... This hero who can track down a lot of insider stories no matter what mission, writes as a warrior and reads as a detective, is still a rookie now.)
It was also a game he had played before, but the time was so old that he didn't even remember the name of the game - there was no way, the game he played at that time was in English, and his English was really a dish, so he could only read the names of several characters.
As for the plot and options, the blue option is to do good things anyway, and the red option is to do bad things. It is clear at a glance and there is no need to understand English at all.
He played the game so ignorantly. It was not until a long time later that the Internet era developed. Some of the game fans he saw on the Internet had inferred the plot based on the introductions of the fans, and I don’t know if it was right.
According to those fan stories, this "insider checking" is the son of the evil god. He lives in a fortress called "Cannen Castle" with his childhood sweetheart who is also the son of the evil god. That "Cannen Castle" is probably what they said before, "keep the candlelight", but he lacks relevant knowledge and makes a wrong judgment.
They lived safely for many years, but later, it seemed that another son of the evil god was coming to cause trouble. The boss of the candle castle refused to protect them. Their adoptive father, Ge Li'an, a very powerful magician, had to take them to escape overnight.
But on the way to escape, they were caught up by the enemy. In a fierce battle, Gelian died, Chanem and Aimeng escaped by luck, and began the difficult journey of avoiding the pursuit while trying to avenge their adoptive father.
(According to the plot, we should soon encounter the son of the evil god Shalofok blocking the road and killing him. I don’t know how strong that guy is? Can I kill him like I kill the "Sage" Israel?)
(When I was playing the game, I felt that both sides were just pecking at each other. Whether this old man Ge Li'an or the bald man Shalofok on the opposite side, they were all greedy. Now that I have entered the game, it shouldn't be difficult to deal with them... right?)
Pan Long was not very confident because among those fandoms, they wrote bald guy very well. A guy with the pen name "Sankeng Dog" even wrote this guy as "War Saint". The strength made Pan Long worry when he thinks about it now.
...Anyway, he definitely can't beat it.
Recalling those fan novels, he couldn't help but sigh deeply, and was very worried.
Because he actually felt that the strength described in those fan novels was the appearance of Sharofok in his mind.
(It's really a big trough! This world is depicted in my mind, right? Isn't that saying that the bald guy I want to deal with is that powerful version?)
(Fuck! Why did I have to be a slut in the past? I read so many fan novels!)
Chapter completed!
