Rebirth Of The Noble Mage Behind The Scenes
Chapter 162 Synchronization Failure

Chapter 162: Chapter 162 Synchronization Failure

A real living person, maintaining a strange "big" character-shaped fixed standing position, suddenly changing in front of you without any magic fluctuation...

Anvis suddenly feels somewhat fortunate. Even though it has been criticized, "Mysterious Era" has never updated the gender adjustment option, and the maximum adjustment range for appearance is only 20%.

The thought of those strange player characters with male bodies and female looks, or female bodies and male looks, gives Anvis goosebumps.

However, since she is a female player...

After some thought, Anvis goes deeper into the alley, to a more hidden corner, and removes her disguise while casually activating the special effect of gathering Light Element with her bloodline.

....

Xia Ye Yinghuo is an ordinary high school girl and a casual game player.

As one of the perfectly ordinary billion people, she, too, had been looking forward to the fully immersive virtual game "Mysterious Era" that has been creating quite a buzz online.

Since she was young, the girl had a small, secret fantasy hidden in her heart.

Riding those creatures that exist only in fantasy, flying unfettered towards the azure sky. Feeling the gentle breeze brushing against her cheeks and the cotton-candy-like clouds, free as a kite.

When she found out from the internet about the existence of a fully immersive virtual game like "Mysterious Era," the girl was overjoyed.

The thought of truly experiencing, in the realm of dreams, riding those beautiful fantasy creatures, soaring freely among the blue sky and white clouds, as well as the feeling of leisurely fishing and flying kites, thrilled her.

So, as soon as the closed beta ended and the gaming helmets went on sale, she couldn’t wait to order a light blue one.

She liked this fresh and cool tone better than girlish pink.

But when the open beta officially started, and she finished creating her character, ready to enter the game world, a small problem occurred.

[Injecting the thread of fate...]

[Time-space synchronization in progress...]

[Anomaly detected in time-space fluctuation]

[Synchronization failed]

?

Could even a holographic virtual game not escape the fate of network troubles?

In a daze, Xia Ye Yinghuo feels somewhat confused.

Meanwhile, detecting that something unexpected has happened, the system prompt continues to refresh.

[Reattempting time-space synchronization...]

[Synchronizing...]

[Synchronization successful]

[Player character appearance attribute save failed]

"Please create your player character—"

The light in the environment turns back on, and hearing the system’s prompt to create a character, Xia Ye Yinghuo almost cries.

She had just spent half an hour shaping that face!!!

So frustrating.

Having no choice and a bit of OCD, she has to start all over again, slowly shaping her character.

Since the previous face-shaping data was lost, she simply tried different races as the base to attempt various face-shaping options.

"Human girls, they always seem so fragile, completely not fitting my temperament."

"Natural Elves, might they be a bit too tall?"

"Wow, Dark Elf girls have such great figures!"

"Female Dwarves are also not bad, ugly cute, and you can even choose to add a beard, and make the nostrils bigger! Hahaha~"

...

After looking through them all, Xia Ye Yinghuo still decides to choose the original Half-Elf.

It has the soft and adorable temperament of human girls, as well as the delicate features and pointed ears of Elves.

As for racial talents and such, that’s too complicated, and as a casual player, she didn’t want to think about that—

After finishing adjusting her character’s appearance, Xia Ye Yinghuo gave it one last check and then, satisfied, clicked the confirm button.

Then, she felt her consciousness darken for a moment before brightening up again.

What met her eyes was the wondrous sight of the exotic Port City.

A gentle breeze carrying the scent of the sea mingled with the faint sounds of waves coming from the distant beach.

People wearing foreign clothes and linen headscarves bustled about on the cobblestone streets, surrounded by pale aqua-colored brick buildings that exuded a soft and elegant glow.

The only slight disappointment was the misty and gloomy sky, where only a pale outline of the sun could be seen, as if it was about to rain.

It felt like the weight on her chest was heavier than usual, but that’s a minor issue. For the sake of realism, she could endure it!

The player agreement popped up on the game panel. Without reading, she scrolled to the bottom and clicked confirm!

After completing all that, Xia Ye Yinghuo gazed in awe at this world, deeply inhaling the slightly salty, moist air of the harbor.

Thereafter, she excitedly hopped twice and rubbed her face vigorously.

The skin feels so smooth! And there are pointy ears too!

"Hello, traveler from afar—"

A beautiful and gentle young male voice sounded from beside her.

Even though it was clearly not a language she was familiar with, she could understand the meaning of the words, as if she were watching a foreign movie with subtitles.

The girl turned her head and was instantly stunned by the sight of the beautiful young man, his cape covered in a thin layer of radiance, as if personified by the sun, smiling gently at her.

Especially those deep blue eyes, like the vast ocean and distant stars, holding a mysterious charm.

Wow, that NPC boy is so handsome aah!

Is this my guide NPC for newbies? This game is awesome!

What should I name our future child?

Oh no, tears are streaming down from the corner of my mouth!

Gazing at the ’Newbie Guide NPC’ who initiated the conversation, as if possessed, Xia Ye Yinghuo raised her hand, wanting to touch the face of the boy in front of her to make sure he was real.

.........

Watching the girl who in half a Magic Time changed everything from her race to her appearance and was still staring at him with a silly grin, Anvis’s smile became a little stiff.

He took a small step back, avoiding the girl’s extending hand.

Meanwhile, Jom standing by his side was lost in deep shock and self-doubt.

It was just a Half-Elf girl who hadn’t begun her journey, and he hadn’t noticed when exactly she appeared!

Seeing the girl extend her hand, Jom instinctively stepped forward, protectively placing himself between Anvis and Xia Ye Yinghuo.

"It’s alright, Jom, no need to be so tense—"

With a resigned smile, Anvis gestured for Jom to move aside.

"Also, miss, it is not ladylike to suddenly reach out and touch a stranger’s face on the street."

When Anvis looked at her with his deep blue eyes, Xia Ye Yinghuo paused for a moment, suddenly realizing her actions and becoming aware of her surroundings.

"I..."

The next instant, her cheeks flushed noticeably red, and the blush spread all the way to the tips of her ears.

It’s just... they’re just NPCs! Why do they feel so lifelike, it’s so embarrassing aah!

But he’s really handsome! Still want to touch!

Right, I should first check his information—

Suddenly remembering something, Xia Ye Yinghuo opened the game panel, somewhat clumsily found the [Detect] function, and cast it on the NPC boy in front of her.

Unfortunately, the result was a series of question marks.
