Right after he clicked 'Yeas', familiar black holographical screen faded and, on its place, small back dot appeared. Little by little that dot started to grow in size. It felt as if void was cracking and before Ling Fan few items materialized from that crack.
Then items fell on the green grass, as black cracks in space disappeared as quickly as they appeared.
"Hah…" Ling Fan sighed deeply as he tried to calm down. This unexpected change in environment gave him goosebumps. At one point, he thought that black hole appeared to swallow him. Which on the second thought seemed stupid, but initial shock was just too much. Cracks in the space looked very alien and sinister.
"It seems like my life will get even weirder…" Ling Fan said to himself as he looked at the few items on the ground. He reached out and grabbed one, which felt more familiar.
It was old blade, wrapped in the dark grey rugs. Its handle was made out from normal wood and had rust all over the place. As he focused his attention on it familiar black holographical screen appeared again.
"Oh?" Ling Fan was surprised. Was system so broke that it couldn't even afford normal blade and instead, it gave him some garbage?
"Well, it's beginners pack after all."
At least now he had a weapon.
It wasn't good to complain too much.
He put blade on his side and pick up a gray book. It was ordinary thin book, all in all contained hundred or so page in it and felt like it was written yesterday. Book had strange characters on its cover, which was giving it a peculiar look.
"Martial arts manual…" Ling Fan's heart rate raised. In this world strength was all that mattered. Without it, right would be a wrong and with it, wrong right. Even if he was bandit, he would be unteachable if he had fearsome strength.
"Looks like system isn't all that useless." He said and clicked 'Yeas'. Suddenly as if lightning struck him thousands of unfamiliar memories merged into his mind. Strange electronic sensation ran down on his body and soon he learned all basic moves of blade. With this, book in his hand began vanishing and disappeared into the void as if it never existed. At the same time new screen appeared before him, showing detailed information about him.
"Cool..." Ling Fan said in disbelief. This whole sensation was magical. In a moment it felt like he was meditating with blade techniques for years. Every part of his body was excited. He now wanted to pick up this rusted blade and unleash his skills with its full mighty. And he would do it, if not solders who were still lingering in the mountain.
"With this system, I might really become something great in this world." First time since he transmigrated here, Ling Fan felt hopeful. As if small light came into darkness. In Fact, he was happy so much that he didn't think much about the name of this system anymore.
Bandit or not system was making him stronger, that was most important now.
After calmed down, he focused on the rest of items. But to his disappointment, there were not more good stuff in there. There was one bottle of healing pills, in which was ten small pills and three strange blue papers with ancient characters on it.
"It's still good." He was on a high spirit. But after he finish gift pack, he didn't have anything to do. So, he sat silently and waited until solders would leave mountain.
Sky was already red when he saw two men on the road towards mountain.
"Damn it, where the hell, did he go?" Said old Liu, middle age man with small black hair and beard, who had pale complexion.
"I don't know!" Young man answered, there was clear irritation in his voice.
'This bastard really made me to spent all my free time in this mountain. Hopefully I will manage to last till morning…' Young man wanted to cry as he thought about his night shift. It was really rough to spend two days without a sleep. New captain was strict as well…
"Hah… What we can do, looks like he got away." Old Liu said helplessly and then looked at the young man with smile. "By the way, do you happen to have extra two teals of silver? You see I'm in urgent need of it right now. I don't want it for long, I will give it back to you after next salary."
"…" Young man looked at him speechlessly.
'But our wage is one tail of silver…' he thought, then without saying anything he quickened his steps. He passed bush where Ling Fan was and went straight towards the city.
This guy… This guy was a disaster.
"Hey… Hey little brother, why are you walking so fast? Wait a little bit for me." Undeterred old Liu followed at young man.
In the bush, Ling Fan was sitting silently with confused face.
'What… What was that?' he thought. When young man passed besides him, he looked up and saw the line of text on top of young man's head.
He was momentary stunned and thought that it was just his imagination, but when middle age man passed him there was another similar text on top of his head.
"There is no mistake, I can see their level and status. But is this my special ability or anyone can use it? If anyone can use it, then it is no wonder that I were discovered every time I left the mountain." He concluded. "But does this mean that everyone has a system? Probably not…"
He thought for some time, but understood that there were still many things that he needed to learn in this world, he gave up on thinking more about it. He still waited for some time and after make sure that thy left, he crawled out from bushes.
He stretched his back and quickly headed towards mountain.
