Inside a cave-like room...

A total of 50 people suddenly appeared inside a dimly lit cave-room. The room was square in shape, with around 50x50 meters to accommodate more than 500 people and enough space to spare.

Currently, Jeremy and 49 other people turned their heads left and right, looking around their surroundings in curiosity.

The walls around them were made with some kind of charcoal-colored stones with some tinge of grey color in the mix, causing it not to be utterly black like regular charcoal. From the look alone, they seemed to be naturally made, but they looked very solid.

There would be torches occasionally stuck to the walls, giving a dim light to the surrounding space. Above their head was a high ceiling with a height of around 10 meters from the ground.

What's more, at the left and right side of the wall spotted a passage, each with an unknown destination. Meanwhile, the front side wall had three ancient-looking wooden doors with some strange pictures drawn on them. Lastly, the rear wall was a dead-end with nothing there.

When someone took a look carefully at those three two-meter doors on the front wall, they would see that there were actually words carved above each of them.

Those words were bizarre, and they were actually written in an unknown language foreign to most people presented here. But surprisingly, anyone who tried to read those words could genuinely understand the meaning behind them. They were like magical words...

Starting from the left door, above its top, had the word 'Easy' being carved there. Then the word 'Normal' being carved above the middle door. Lastly, above the last door on the rightmost, the word 'Hard' was situated there.

Everyone decided to ignore those doors and words for now because there was something behind them that no one knew how many times more amazing than those doors and words.

And that thing was actually a big green crystal...

At the very center of the cave-like room was being stationed by a big green crystal, the size of a phone booth. The crystal looked very dazzling and beautiful at first, second, and even third glance. Well... even after being cast countless glances upon it, the crystal was still peerlessly beautiful as always.

If it were on Earth, its price should be more than enough to buy a small city. The crystal was nothing but extraordinary; it was currently hovering around 10 centimeters above the ground, rotating there very slowly and silently.

Suddenly, a mysterious message popped up in front of everyone within the clearing, interrupting their thoughts about the crystal.

...

『 It is time for change 』

『 From now on, every race and species within the universe will face a natural selection from the universe itself. Along with a helper, the System, which is directly related to an existence that governs all of the universe's information called Akashic Records. For you, who was a resident of Le'Liac Planet, Earth. We welcome you to Ortus, The Place Where Everything Begins. 』

『 Tutorial Mission: Survive 』

...

After seeing the projected message, it could only be said that...

Today was destined to be the new beginning of Earthlings.

Still, when everyone finished reading the message, the majority of them started to panic once again. Today was really filled with so much wonder and amazement for them. Today, they had seen miracles together with horrifying events right in front of their eyes too many times.

Some people within the group could not accept the reality as of yet, while some had a tendency to go crazy already. Some of them started to cry and prayed to their revered god.

It was a tough time for them...

The culture shock from those sudden changes was too much for ordinary people like them to bear. They couldn't even fathom what would have happened to them next. They might just die or become headless corpses like those people.

How could they still remain calm after seeing and experience those incredulous events?

Right now, many of them could only hope that this was a nightmare... a nightmare that they really wished to wake up from it as fast as possible.

Meanwhile, a certain obese man within the group was thinking very differently. He was eyeing intently at the brilliant crystal floating silently at the very center of the clearing.

After seeing the magnificent light green crystal floating not that far from him, the obese man with the title of 'Greedy Pig' above his head decided to be the first person to go and acclaim the ownership of the crystal.

Anyone might be wondering that why the fatty didn't inactivate his trash title. The reason was simple... to turn on or off a title; one must wait for its cooldown period to be reset, which required ten days for each activation and inactivation.

Thus, right now, the majority of people undergoing the Tutorial were having a title or two floating above their heads without any way to remove them anytime soon.

Before anyone could react, the obese man was already in front of the crystal...

The next second, with a realization that there was no danger even after being so close to the crystal, he hurriedly reached out his right hand to touch the crystal.

A tad bit too late to realize the man's movement, everyone else could only look and wait patiently for the outcome.

With the gulping sounds from many people. Some people even took a distance away from the crystal for fear that something terrible might happen again.

Then...

Right after touching the crystal, the obese man looked in front of him absentmindedly.

"..."

"..."

"..."

Even after several seconds had passed by, the man still had no response until many people within the group grew impatient with the still mood.

Still, no one said anything...

Seeing that no one was brave enough to raise anything up, a tanned, muscular man with bulging arms and thick legs, who was wearing an Army T-shirt and pants, while above his bald head spotted a rank 1 title called 'Gunner', decided to be the first one to open his mouth.

"Hey!! Fatty, What the f*ck are you doing. Tell us what happens or what you do see already."

Following that, the fat man frowned and said annoyingly without even turning his head to the man.

"Come to see it yourself, brainless bastard!"

Upon hearing that sentence from the Greedy Pig, the muscular man replied back with a threatening tone, "What did you F*CKING SAY?? YOU WANNA DIE?".

After hearing the threatening voice, together with a sudden realization that the man he was talking to was actually a huge and muscular man with 2 meters in height.

The fatty got frightened out of his wits and hurriedly scrambled away from the crystal, giving ways for the muscular man who was approaching him with fast footsteps.

When the muscular guy saw that his opposition was backing away rapidly like a frightened rabbit, he shook his head and decided not to pursue the man anymore.

When he reached the crystal, he touched it to see what exactly it was all about.

Whereas his hand had touched the crystal, he suddenly saw an interface aligned with three options in front of him. Those 3 options were [Shop], [Mission], and [Leaderboard]. It was almost transparent like the status window. Also, those three options could be accessed by using his mind.

So, he decided to check out those three options...

Just like that, the muscular man stood there like an idiot with no difference than the fat guy until almost half a minute later when most people grew impatient with the status quo.

The man then realized that he should at least explain the situation before a wave of questions hit him hard in the face.

"Alright, guys, don't be so anxious as of yet. I will explain to you. When you first touch this crystal, like your status window, there will be a transparent window popping up in front of you. On the screen, there will be three options for you to choose from."

He paused for a bit, then kept on speaking.

"First of all, the [Shop] option contains 'Buy' and 'Sell' buttons within. For the 'Buy' button, you can buy four things, [Weapons], [Clothes], [Miscellaneous], and [Skills]. All of the items within can be bought with a currency called SP or Survival Point. There is nothing present within the 'Sell' button, so I think to myself and try to sell my watch. You guess what? My watch had disappeared from my right wrist, and then I get 3.2 SP that can be used to buy things from the [Buy] button."

The muscular man paused for a few seconds to take a breather while raising his left hand to show those people that he didn't have his watch anymore. Then he looked around to see his audiences' faces before he continued.

"For the [Mission] button, you might instinctively know already that it is a place where you can get a mission or report a completed mission to receive the Survival Point to buy things. Lastly, the [Leaderboard] button shows your current accomplishment and ranking. In this case, I'm an Unranked, and I'm sure that you guys will also be an Unranked because we had not accomplished any mission yet."

"For more information, come and see it yourself."

When the man finished his speech, he didn't care to explain or give out any more information. He just silently scrutinized the interface there quietly.

"Wow, it was like a game." Said a teenage boy of around 16-17 years old after hearing the man's words.

"I want to go home. Why... why bring me here!! My daughter..." Shouted a middle-aged man in his office suit.

"Mommy... Mommy... I'm scared..." Said a 12 years old child.

"Hahaha, this is getting interesting." The man with eyeglasses with a confident expression talked to himself.

There were many responses to the current situations. Someone was depressed, someone was happy, someone was scared, someone still couldn't accept the reality.

But a certain someone...

'Indeed... it is the same tutorial zone as before; even the events taking place here are the same.'

That certain someone grinned...
