Global Dungeon: I Can See the Status Bar

Chapter 1: Chapter 1: I Can See Blood Bars

“Crunch!”

“Woof woof…”

The fluffy golden retriever pulled the cart, breaking a wooden plank with one paw in the yard, now looking aggrieved as it called out to the young man following behind.

“You’re already more than a year old, why are you still acting like a pup?”

Seeing the big dog acting coy in front of him, Lu Wenwu concentrated slightly, and two lines of text appeared above the golden retriever’s head.

[Growing Golden Retriever Hunting Dog Mao Mao (E)]: 400/400

[Current Status]: Happy

Lu Wenwu flipped over the paw that stepped on the plank for a look, then gave Mao Mao a playful slap on the head.

“You’re pretending again.”

Mao Mao didn’t care, his tail wagged wildly as he flashed a radiant and healing smile, then happily bounced forward pulling the cart again.

The big golden retriever was very spiritual, seeming to understand human language completely.

“Xiaobao, keep the house safe, we’ll be back soon.”

Lu Wenwu shouted into the house, then locked the door and leisurely strolled down the road with Mao Mao.

Inside the house, the blue-eared cat named Xiaobao twitched its ears, continuing to curl up in a ball, sleeping soundly, seemingly not hearing a thing.

Lu Wenwu, male, twenty-two years old, transmigrator.

His hobby was cooking and making egg pancakes aggressively, sometimes moonlighting as a breakfast stall owner.

It depended on how much he felt like making, and whether he could get out of bed.

After all, selling breakfast is a tough job, and it’s just his hobby, not his work.

Lu Wenwu held onto the cart, humming a tune while moving forward.

Suddenly, a grand voice echoed worldwide.

[Preliminary player selection begins]

This blue star originally had a development trajectory almost identical to Earth’s.

However, fifty years ago, the “Contaminated Area” descended on Blue Star, each containing countless “Dungeon Worlds.”

On the first day of every month, countless people are randomly selected as preliminary players.

If they enter the dungeon and complete their tasks, those who survive have the chance to obtain extraordinary powers like flying and star-gathering.

But, over time, the numerous dungeons within the contaminated area erode and blend with the real world.

Only by achieving [You] or higher in a certain dungeon’s final evaluation can the dungeon completely disappear.

If unresolved, the entire dungeon world will eventually merge with Blue Star, bringing all its monsters.

Even more frightening, if selected preliminary players don’t attain player status in the initial dungeon, the dungeon world will descend directly without any transition.

This is a terrifying matter.

In the early stages of disaster, many small countries perished, and even larger nations experienced continuous social collapse.

Until innumerable transcendent beings obtained powerful forces, restored order, established safe zones, and demarcated “contaminated areas” and “taboo zones”, the calamity was barely curbed.

Originally, the Divine Continent was the fastest nation to restore order during this catastrophe, having suppressed numerous contaminated areas swiftly and being the first to establish safe zones.

Yet strangely, shortly after restoring order, there was chaos again, and countless transcendents were missing or dead.

This severe discontinuity nearly caused the recently recovered country to collapse again, barely stabilizing in recent years.

At this moment, innumerable individuals prayed.

Prayed that this damned game wouldn’t select them, and if selected, it should be the elites of their own country.

Lu Wenwu suddenly felt his spirit tremble, and a semi-transparent panel appeared before his eyes.

[You have been selected, you will enter the dungeon world in thirty seconds]

[Successfully survive and achieve [Pass] or higher rating, and you will obtain [Player] status]

[Countdown begins]

“Finally arrived, later than I imagined.”

Lu Wenwu wasn’t surprised by his selection, even felt a bit excited, and he casually ruffled the dog’s head.

The contaminated area brought humans powerful forces but also endless sorrow.

Simply because of the dungeon’s high death rate and the bizarre monsters in the contaminated area.

It’s hard to say whether it’s good or bad.

At least for Lu Wenwu, who could see “blood bars” all the time, he had been looking forward to this day for a long time.

Before officially becoming a transcendent, he could only acquire extremely limited basic information, which was undoubtedly a torment for someone eager to realize self-worth and pursue excitement.

With the end of the thirty-second countdown, Lu Wenwu felt his vision suddenly blackout, then arrived at a special white room.

Mao Mao came with him to this room, now curiously observing all around.

The cart he had been pulling was nowhere to be seen.

Lu Wenwu sensed that he could retrieve it from somewhere if he focused his thoughts.

Before his eyes, there was still the previous panel.

[Scan complete, personal panel, personal backpack unlocked, in progress of manifesting inherent talent]

[Congratulations, your talent is: Eye of Insight]

[Eye of Insight: You can obtain certain information through observation]

“Eye of Insight? Isn’t this just my special ability to see blood bars?” Lu Wenwu muttered, trying to call out the personal panel.

[ID]: Not activated

[Level]: Not opened

[Power]: 6

[Speed]: 3

[Physique]: 5

[Soul]: 7

[Blood Volume]: 500

[Talent]: Eye of Insight

[Cultivation Technique]: None

[Skills]: Egg Pancake Cooking [Peak of Perfection]

[Free attribute points]: 0

[Spirit Coins]: 0

[Note: Skill Level from low to high is — Shallow Perception, Initial Glimpse, Skilled, Skillful, Entering the Hall, First Generation Grandmaster, Peak of Perfection, All Laws Connect to God]

…

Lu Wenwu looked at his personal panel and felt relatively satisfied.

Before becoming a Transcendent, a standard adult male’s average data for each item is five points.

Except for speed, everything else for him is quite decent.

After all, you can’t expect a tall guy of one meter ninety to be very fast, just like there’s only one Bolt over the years.

It’s worth mentioning the Egg Pancake Cooking at the level of Peak of Perfection.

If placed next to the Island Country, one would be an Egg Pancake Immortal.

It’s not in vain that he studied it for so many years.

As for some boxing and kicking Lu Wenwu practiced before, it seems they didn’t reach the standard to be defined as “Skills”.

[Detected you carry non-system products: Egg Pancake Cart, Smartphone, the items do not affect task difficulty]

[Detected you have a pet: Mao Mao, choose to bind?]

[Binding will significantly increase task difficulty, but you can gain additional 100% of pet earnings (pet earnings are not impaired), final evaluation level gets extra boost]

“Huh? The newbie guide didn’t mention this!” Lu Wenwu weighed the pros and cons amidst his confusion, “Bind, start with a dog, rely on equipment drops!”

[Binding successful, you can now view and use Mao Mao’s pet panel]

[Now you can sense Mao Mao’s thoughts and communicate to a certain extent through the system]

[Dungeon World initialization complete, entering soon]

Lu Wenwu hadn’t had the chance to look at Mao Mao’s specific data, suddenly felt a blur again.

He hadn’t completely entered the Dungeon World, but the global livestream had already started.

The selection of preliminary players in the Initial Dungeon is very special, as it will be livestreamed, and only it will be livestreamed.

Moreover, achieving good results can weaken the already manifested fusion Contaminated Area.

At this moment, there were already quite a few comments in the Divine Continent’s livestream room.

[Can we have some fierce ones this time, or we’re doomed if it continues]

[Where’s the big brother? Come save us big brother!]

[The quality of the newbies last time was so bad that the Contaminated Area pushed straight to my neighborhood entrance. I am just D- Level trash, now organized to stand by at the gathering spot, and those high-level players who didn’t enter are all deploying]

[Keep it up!]

The comments are filled with all sorts of attitudes.

Divine Continent had just stopped its decline in the past few years, but it’s limited to that, the situation is not optimistic.
