Chương 4: Chapter 4: First Warrior & Zergon's History
'System, open the Warriors Summoning Platform! It's time to summon my first Warrior.'
[Warriors Summoning Platform opening. Opened.]
[Please insert the Summoning ticket into the ticket booth. Summoning ticket x1 received. Summoning Warrior.]
A bright light flashed in Lucian's mind as the system opened a portal on the platform. The portal began to change colors repeatedly from bronze to silver to gold to rainbow. It kept changing until it settled down on the color rainbow. Suddenly a Warrior on horseback came charging out from the portal wearing scale armor and holding a spear in his hand.
[Ding! Warrior Summoning completed. Summoned Super Special Rare Warrior, The White Dragon Who Charges Through The Battlefield, Zhao Yun(Zhao Zilong).]

'HOLY SHIT!!! DID I HEAR CORRECTLY, IT'S ZHAO YUN!! I can't believe I summoned the White Dragon of Shu!! He's even an SSR Warrior, what are the chances? I thought I would summon an R or N Warrior for my first summon. This is godlike luck, thank you RNGesus for blessing me!'
Lucian was shocked and pleasantly surprised by his first Warrior summon. He had some expectations but was calm as the summoning was based on luck and was a gacha no matter how you looked at it. He believed that he had average luck so there was no way to get an SSR Warrior unless he had around 10 tries, so he settled on the idea of getting an R Warrior instead. Now before his very eyes, the SSR Warrior Zhao Yun was summoned.
'Oh yeah, System, can you tell me more about the Status Page? I almost forgot to ask you about it since everything had been going by so fast for me. For some reason, I was suddenly transmigrated to this world and had to inhabit Lucian's body. Then I had to survive my encounter with Lucian's escorts to the place of exile and the existence of you in my mind. Sigh, I wonder how my body is on Earth.'
[Regarding the Status Page of Warriors, Name is the true name of the being who is scanned by the System. Style Name is only used towards the Warriors summoned. Age is how old the being is. Occupation is their role. Loyalty is how loyal they are to you. The higher the loyalty, the more they trust you and follow your orders. The base loyalty to get them to follow you is 50/100. Hint: Sometimes the summoned Warrior will not work for you as they see you as a weak being and not a worthy lord to follow. To get them to follow you, you would have to give them items, titles, land, and people, or you can beat them through combat or strategy until they follow you. These are the basic parts of the Status Page.]
[Next is regarding Cultivation. They show what cultivation rank they are. In this world, the two energies being cultivated are Mana and Battle Qi so the Cultivation part is split into two. Cultivation Technique is a way for these Warriors to utilize the energies of this world and cultivate them. As they were cultivators before in their world, their cultivation techniques were changed to fit into this world. Weapon Technique is the way they use their weapons and utilize special attacks. Skills are the skills that the Warrior has learned throughout his life. Life Weapon is a weapon that is deeply connected to their soul and was the weapon they used that stayed with them until their deaths. Each time they get stronger, their weapons will also get stronger and rise in quality. Mount are the creatures that they ride into battle. Items held are the equipment besides weapons that they have on their persons.]
[The Status Page will be similar whether they be the Host's Status Page, Peasant's Status Page, or the Status Page of a being from this world. Regarding why you transmigrated and why the System was bound to you, that is classified. Reach the rank of a god before asking again.]
'Thanks for the information regarding the Status Page. So transmigrating to this world is a huge secret? So that means it regards a god of this world if I have to reach the rank of a god to find out why I was sent here and what happened to me on Earth. That reminds me, I have to search through Lucian's fragmented memories to understand the world I'm currently living in.'
Lucian began to focus his mind to look through the memories he received from inhabiting his current body. He specifically looked for memories regarding the books that Lucian had read that described the world he lived in and its cultivation system. After a while, he finally got his desired memories from the fragments. The world that he is in is called Zergon. It was called that as the people of this world in ancient times called their world's creator that name so it carried on until Zergon became the official name.
The lore of the creation of this world started like this. In the darkness of beginnings, Zergon the creator was born. As all that he could see was darkness he created a light that illuminated the darkness. As there were no other creatures besides himself, he decided to use his own body and soul to create a world that would be inhabited by many creatures. He plucked out his eyes which became the sun and moon to contain the light that illuminates him from the darkness with the sun taking most of the light. His skin became the lands and his blood became the oceans. His breath became the skies and his hair became the trees. His flesh and organs became the bodies of the 12 gods of this world. His soul split, giving them life and different authorities to be able to govern his world.
The 12 gods were the Goddess of Mana Jaina who governed the spread of Mana created by Zergon's residue Soul fragments. The God of Battle Qi Thrall who governed the energy Battle Qi within the creatures created by the residue Flesh of Zergon. The God of Beasts Razan who governed the creation of creatures known as beasts to propagate this new world using the leftover flesh and soul. The Goddess of the Moon Luna who governed the coming of night and the oceans. The God of Mountains Vulcan who governed the in betweens of the sky and earth. The Goddess of the Sun Lumine who governed the coming of day and the sun whose light illuminates all. The God of the Forests Faun who governed over the forests and nature. The Goddess of the Elements Aetherea who governed over the primal elements of the world and kept them in balance. The Goddess of the Earth Gaia who governed the very earth itself. The Goddess of the Sky Bahamut who governed the very skies and weather. The God of Monsters Baphomet who governed over the creation of creatures known as Monsters using the waste of Zergon. The God of Death Thanatos who governed the death of all creatures besides gods and reincarnations of souls.
Each God except Thanatos created one race in their image and authority. To create the creatures faster they each gave up some of the things making up their authority. Jaina gave up some Mana, Thrall gave up some Battle Qi, Razan gave up some Primordial Flesh, Luna gave up some Primordial Blood, Vulcan gave up some Earth Fire, Lumine gave up some Light of Spirit, Faun gave up some Origin Trees, Aetherea gave up a small piece of her elements, Gaia gave up some Primordial Earth, Bahamut gave up some Heaven Breath, Baphomet gave up some residue of Primordial Organs, and Thanatos gave up some Soul Fragments.
Jaina created the Elves, Thrall created the Orcs, Razan created the Beastmens, Luna created the Merfolks, Vulcan created the Dwarves, Lumine created the Humans, Faun created the Fairies, Aetherea created the Elementals, Gaia created the Titans, Bahamut created the Dragons, and Baphomet created the Goblins. Thanatos gave each being a soul so that they could die and he can regulate the cycle of reincarnation. After creating those 11 intelligent races, some of them continued to create beings that would propagate the world so that the 11 races won't be lonely and that they could survive off of. They were animals, monsters, and plants of this world.
Of course, even though the races were made of similar ingredients, when creating civilizations those races clashed in ideals and created the first world war. Many of the races were close to being killed off and the gods had to step in to stop the killings. There was a time of peace before a portal opened up leading to a world filled with darkness and beings known as demons. It was the invasion of another world from the cosmos. All beings were shocked by the invasion but came together and fought back against the demons. Some beings became godlike figures due this war and after taking authority of some kind became subordinate gods to the main gods. At the climax, the Goddess from the darkness world, Astaroth came and it took most of the power from the main gods to push back the Goddess and close the portal. Due to this they fell into a deep sleep, leaving things to their subordinates to govern for them. Thanatos was still awake as he was the eldest god with a lot of Soul fragments left who took leave from the world to govern souls in a domain he created. Demons still propagated this world with the goal of summoning their world and Goddess into this one. 100,000,000 years have passed since then.
Throughout the 100 million years, there had been many empires and kingdoms that rose to power but were destroyed due to their own greed, internal struggles or demonic influences. Right now, there are a total of 100 recognized empires and 10 Union of Kingdoms. Lucian's kingdom, the Wune Kingdom, is part of one of the Union of Kingdoms made up of 5 kingdoms who rebelled against an empire 1000 years ago and succeeded. They took the land from the destroyed empire and relegated each piece equally between themselves.
'I see. So that's the creation lore of this world. It's pretty grand in its telling. So there are actual gods who reside in this world. I just wonder how I can reach the level of a god. I only know parts of this world's cultivation system and it doesn't tell me how to reach the level of a god.'
The cultivation system of this world that Lucian recalled uses the energies called Battle Qi and Mana to rise in power and each large increase of power was separated into ranks. He only knew the first 3 ranks to them as the royal library didn't have information on the ranks after the first 3. There were definitely more ranks as none of the 3 ranks had the power of a godlike being. For the cultivation of Battle Qi, the 3 ranks were Battle Disciple, Battle Practitioner, and Battle Warrior. For the cultivation of Mana, the 3 ranks were Apprentice Magus, Novice Magus, and Magus. They were just the general titles of the 3 ranks as each race called them differently for the different professions that came from them like humans calling those who cultivated Battle Qi as knights. For each rank there was a different way to become stronger.
'I wonder if the cultivation technique I got from the System has the answers to what comes after the 3rd rank. Oh shoot, I lost track of time. Sorry general Zhao for making you wait so long. Do I just summon him to this world the same way I opened the Inventory?'
[Yes Host. Stretch out your hands and think of summoning the Warrior to this world. The Warrior will then naturally come out from the system space and into this world.]
'Alright, thanks for telling me. Phew, let's do this. I'm so excited to see the great Zhao Yun appear in this world. Come out, Zhao Yun!'
Lucian stretched out his hands while thinking of summoning Zhao Yun to this world. There then appeared a portal one feet away from him and out came a warrior slowly coming out on a white horse. With one hand on the reins of the horse, his other hand was grabbing a spear. The spear was about 10 feet long and had a white tassel between the pointed end of the spear and the shaft. The shaft was dark, made of an unknown metal and curling around the shaft was a white dragon that roared at wherever the pointed end was facing. The point end was sharp and gleamed with a dangerous light.
The Warrior himself was tall even when sitting on the white horse looking to be about 6 feet. He had a pair of sharp brows and a pair of brown eyes that shined. His hair was black and long, tied up by a string. He was handsome while his face was rugged, in fact the ruggedness added to his charm. His hands holding the reins of the horse and his spear were full of calluses which were probably caused by long training of the spear.
"General Zhao Yun, welcome to this world and my village. I hope that you can help me in leading my people in warfare and train my soldiers. I'll lead you through the village and if you have any problems, you can tell me."
"Thank you Lord Lucian for summoning me. I hope that I can be of service to you. I noticed that you are surnamed Liu. Are you perhaps related to my previous lords, Lord Liu Bei and Lord Liu Shan?" Zhao Yun questioned.
"Well, it is not impossible. While it is true that I have the surname of Liu, my relation to Liu Bei is small if not nothing even in my own world. I could be their descendant for all I know, of course this is only pertaining to my own world as I don't know if I have an incarnation in your world."
"Thank you for answering my question, Lord Lucian. So that is how it is. Well, no matter. I'll follow you as my lord and I hope I can see my fellow friends again. When in battle, I'll be sure to lead your army to victory. Count on me!" Zhao Yun exclaimed. He saluted by making a fist and placing it on his chest.
Lucian then gave Zhao Yun a tour of the village, explaining what each building does. He led Zhao Yun to each of his villagers to explain who he was and his importance to the village. The villagers were all excited as they had all heard of the White Dragon General. They were happy to have such a person to guard the village and help out in training the soldiers.
"My lord, I was wondering where I would be staying as it seems that each of the houses are used to accommodate villagers and the barracks are used to accommodate soldiers. I don't want to take their homes from them."
[Ding! Congrats to the Host for completing the Hidden Quest - Summoning the first Warrior to this world. Rewards: Normal Brown Horse x10, General's House x5, Lesser Healing Balm x5.]
'Nice timing System but couldn't you have rewarded me after Zhao Yun was summoned, why after this long? Anyways, the General's House is probably the living quarters for my generals. Tell me about the rewards I received."
[Normal Brown Horse - A brown horse that has no cultivation. Can be used to make a cavalry unit or used for transport of materials.
General's House - A house made to accommodate generals. Each house is high quality with good living conditions and holds plenty of training materials. The house also has a place for mounts and could hold 1 general each. Each house has been erected behind the Village head's house.
Lesser Healing Balm - A balm that is used to heal wounds. As a lesser item, it can only heal small wounds quickly while bigger wounds would take more of the balm and more time. Can be used in Battle Qi cultivation.]
'I see. Thanks for the information System. Now I'll just lead Zhao Yun to one of the General's Houses. I hope he can find it to his liking.'
"Come with me, General Zhao. Your house is over there, behind the Village head's house. I hope you can find it to your liking." Lucian then led Zhao Yun to one of the houses behind his own.
Inside, the quality was vastly different from the normal houses granted by creating the village. There was a large living room with a kitchen by its side. Walking past the living room was a training room with training equipment and a dummy. Leaving the training room, on the opposite end was a large bedroom with a big bed and a place to place weapons and clothes. There was also a restroom to clean the body. Outside, there was a stable to place mounts like horses.
"This here is your home, General Zhao. I hope it is to your liking. If you have any problems with it, tell me."
"No, I don't have any problems with this place. It is perfect for me to live in. Thank you for providing me with this place. I'll settle in and put my horse in the stable. I'll try to cultivate this world's energies for a while in the training room before I'll go to the barracks to see how the soldiers are."
"That's good. I'll wait for you there as well then. I'll leave you be for now." Lucian said as he exited the house.
'Oh yeah, I should check on the cultivation technique the System gave me. At the very least, I want to get started on my cultivation and learn more of this world in my journey to create an everlasting empire.'
