"Never heard of this character in my previous life, 'Water Vortex'... Names translated like this usually belong to extraordinary races, like elves, demons, or dragons."
From the content of the letter, she should be the head of Trekie's Exhibition Hall, or at least the marketing agent.
That card, which amplifies one's inner desires, is probably her handiwork.
Just wait—Li Aozzi clenched his fist—daring to scam my money, I'll open the box and drag you out for a thorough lesson sooner or later.
"The sending time is ZGM.0238/1/13—Layer Abyss Passage Calendar, the 238th restart of civilization, the First Entropy Collapse, the 13th Narrative."
There's no concept of time in the universe; the varying degrees of gravity affect the description of time's passage.
Therefore, for those big shots, they use a universal calendar, taking each restart of an era as a time cycle.
Discarding the year, month, and day, they only record destruction and new birth.
It's a very complex and ancient calendar.
Li Aozzi recalled that only extraordinary beings with lifespans exceeding 20K would choose this recording method; for them, their long memories were too vast, not meant for short-lived species.
Judging by this, the other party is at least a Sigma-level extraordinary being—this level is higher than the game levels in his previous life.
"However, the 13th Narrative..."
Li Aozzi remembered that the 13th Narrative referred to both time and a geographical location.
Specifically, it referred to the 13th hegemonic civilization, indicating that Glina is within this time period, located in the 13th hegemonic civilization.
As for the 13th hegemonic civilization, players usually called it the Lords Empire.
This calendar system didn't fit mortal concepts of time; even Li Aozzi didn't know much about it.
Time seemed mysterious on a planetary level, but it was nothing in the universe.
"A dragon woman in the 13th Narrative? After version 12.0, people have descended at least two levels into the Abyss, using the 10th Narrative."
Li Aozzi shook his head.
The contact was likely a mass message; it's impossible she was genuinely interested in an ordinary person like him.
Starting as a Sigma-level dragon woman, she must have been invited by the Lords Empire.
However, this matter had no immediate significance to him. Sigma-level beings, roughly level 360-380, typically had lived long enough to be quite Zen and gentle.
Judging by her tone and name, she seemed to be a nice woman. Glina must be a gentle, knowledgeable elder sister type.
She wouldn't care about someone like him.
Instead, Li Aozzi was very interested in the opening of the official website and forum.
"Players are finally coming! But, in the alpha test phase, there are only 14 people, scattered around Frostbite; there won't be many nearby."
Li Aozzi checked the official website. Qiqiao Network had announced the first batch of test slots, with this alpha test mainly showcasing development completeness.
"It is indeed the legendary alpha test. The timeline matches."
Alpha testing was for content completeness.
