《Legacy Online》Level 5 - An Evolving System
Advertisement
Sitting on her beloved Inferno Panda, Xiao Mo stared in shock as her jaw slowly loosens itself.
Standing next to Madam Passion, the potion seller, a group of girls were gathered around a tree, and under that tree was a strikingly handsome young man with a troubled face.
Although she has not seen that face for many years, it was definitely a familiar face.
“I should have known…” She sighed.
Commanding her Inferno Panda to get closer to the tree, its steps shook the earth once again. The shaking attracted the attention of the girls and the handsome young man.
“What are you all doing around my boyfriend? Get lost!” She shouted domineeringly as they got closer.
The Inferno Panda almost tripped upon hearing its master’s words. With its high level, it was able to understand quite a bit of human language. And being its Tamed Beast, it obviously knew very well about its master, which is why it almost tripped from shock. Its master found herself a male companion? Impossible! Not with her character!
Because of the Inferno Panda’s existence, the girls scattered like scared pigeons.
“Thank you, Xiao Mo. It was getting stuffy in here…”
“Not even an hour in and you’re already flirting with girls? I hope you’re playing this game not as a player, but as a player…”
Yin Xian could only smile helplessly at her words.
“Hm?” He suddenly noticed the red panda she was riding; it was staring at him intensively.
“What’s this? A Mount?”
He extended his hand to touch it.
“Wai---”
Xiao Mo wanted to stop him from touching her Inferno Panda because of its aggressiveness, but it was too late. Her Inferno Panda’s giant paw was already high in the sky, only a second away from slapping it down.

“Eh--?”
However, just as she was expecting her Inferno Panda to slap Yin Xian into the netherworld, her view instantly changed from seeing Yin Xian to the bright sky.
*BAM*
"Ouch!"
The ground shook like crazy as she--- along with her Inferno Panda, slammed into the dirt backward.
“W-What happened?” She could feel a headache coming due to the impact.
Suddenly, the sky was blocked by Yin Xian’s handsome face. “Are you okay? Your fat panda slipped from nothing; it was hilarious.” He laughed.
“I-I’m okay…” She got up from the ground to look at her Inferno Panda with a confused expression. Had it slipped from nothing? So it lost balance because of its own attack? How embarrassing…
It was not just Xiao Mo, even the Inferno Panda had a headache because of what happened. One second it was preparing to attack the human, the next its furred-back was touching the dirt; it was very weird indeed.
The most bewildering part was, however, when it tried to get back up, it was shocked to find out that its legs had lost all its strength, rendering it powerless!
Seeing her own Tamed Beast struggling to get back up after losing balance, Xiao Mo’s face burned red with embarrassment.
“Xiao Po, I’ll call you back out later… Return!”
The Inferno Panda suddenly began glowing, covering its entire gigantic frame.
Seconds later, the glowing panda began disintegrating from top to bottom into the air like sand getting blown away by a gentle wind.
“Your fat panda, where did it go?” Yin Xian looked at the tiny glittering lights with a weird expression.
“Stop calling it a fat panda! It’s my Tamed Beast, Xiao Po! And I recalled it!” Her voice was louder than usual as if she wanted to use her loud voice to push away her embarrassment.

Feeling like he had done something bad, Yin Xian changed the topic. “Say, do you have a mask or anything that can cover my face? If I have to walk around like this, then I’d rather stop playing…”
His words pulled Xiao Mo out of her embarrassment, and she cried out, “I have not seen your face for so many years, and you want to take that away from me already? And you’ve just started an hour ago! No way, you’re not quitting on me so easily! Here’s a mask, and a few things to get you started.”
[You have obtained: Panda Mask (Common)]
Yin Xian received a mask with the face of a panda on it, and he chuckled, “You really love pandas, don’t you?”
“Do you want it or not?”
“I do…”
Xiao Mo then took out a small ring from nowhere and handed it to him.
“This is an Epic-Grade Storage Ring; it’s very rare and expensive, so try not to lose it. You should know its usages, so I’ll spare myself from explaining. To use it, you imagine whatever you want to be stored inside to go inside the ring, and the opposite when you want to take it out. Easy, right?”
“And knowing you, you would not want me to spoil you with too many high-end items, so I only stored inside a few consumable items and some money.”
[You have obtained: Storage Ring (Epic)]
Yin Xian patted her head out of nowhere with a warm smile on his face, “You know me very well, indeed. It’s no fun if I get all the good things from the start, and it’ll only ruin my experience. Thank you, Xiao Mo.”
Blushing, she added, “And as for the game, I’ll also spare myself from explaining. If you really want to know, then Koogle it.”
“My purpose of playing games is to explore it; it would not be fun if I were to know everything about the game before I had even started it.”
“Oh, but one thing you should know is that this game’s system is very different from other MMORPGs. Unlike other games where it’s all flat-out ready for you, you have to unlock its properties. If I were to describe it, then it would be a system that evolves along with its player.”
“A system that evolves along with its player? Is that why my Status was so empty?”
“Yes,” she nodded, “Everybody starts out like that, but it will have more information as you progress and learn more about the game.”
“I see…”
“Ah-- Although I would love to stay here longer, I have to run. There is a dungeon raid scheduled two hours from now, and as a core player of my clan, I have to be there.”
“Okay, goodbye and have fun.”
“.....”
“You really want me to leave, huh? Fine, goodbye!”
“Eh?”
Yin Xian helplessly watched as Xiao Mo stomp away angrily.
After Xiao Mo was out of his sight, Yin Xian’s expression changed. He turned his head to where a middle-aged lady with heavy makeup was staring at him with a serious expression.
“Madam Passion, was it? You have been staring at me for a while... Is there something you would like to talk about?” He puts on the panda mask as he walks towards her, hiding his mysterious smile behind the mask.
