"Brother Hao, wake up, it's nine o'clock. 'Ragnarok' is launching, and if you keep sleeping, you'll miss the opening."

Ragnarok?

Launch?

Lin Tianhao suddenly opened his eyes, looking at the familiar yet strange surroundings.

"This is... Dream Chasers Club?!"

"Wait!"

"Wasn't I killed by that backstabber Wu Xiaodao while exploring the Ruins of the Gods?"

"What's going on now?"

Lin Tianhao grabbed his phone, and the date was clearly displayed as May 20, 2032!

"I've been reborn, back to ten years ago, just as Ragnarok was launching!!"

Seeing Lin Tianhao's intense reaction, Zhou Xiaopang quickly consoled him:

"Brother Hao, don't worry, we'll all find a way to gather the money. Your sister will be fine."

As memories became clearer, Lin Tianhao suddenly recalled that at this time in his previous life, his sister was hit by a car, resulting in a blood clot in her brain.

The surgery cost three hundred thousand, and the driver fled. There were no cameras in that area, and the police never found the culprit.

This three hundred thousand surgery fee fell on Lin Tianhao's shoulders.

Although his friends tried to help, they only managed to gather two hundred sixty thousand, even with loans.

Lin Tianhao begged desperately at the hospital, but short of forty thousand, the hospital refused to operate, and his sister died on the hospital bed.

Thinking of that playful and cute figure, Lin Tianhao clenched his fists.

"Sister, don't worry, this time, I will save you!"

Lin Tianhao's eyes were resolute, "Living again, I must change fate and prevent the tragedy from happening again."

Looking at Zhou Xiaopang in front of him, Lin Tianhao suddenly smiled.

"Fatty, let's enter the game. Our fate is ours to write!"

Seeing Lin Tianhao return to normal, Zhou Xiaopang finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Brother Hao, go for it."

Entering the gaming pod, Lin Tianhao felt a mix of emotions.

'Ragnarok,' a groundbreaking virtual online game, was publicly claimed to be a second world created by over a hundred countries.

But Lin Tianhao, having lived through his previous life, knew that this game was not created by countries but by the Galactic Overgod using the powers of Earth's ancient gods, a game to create gods.

The purpose was to prepare for the Great Cataclysm five years later.

Five years from now, the Alaite Star System would invade the Milky Way Galaxy, and the cataclysm would begin.

Having experienced the Great Cataclysm, Lin Tianhao knew how crucial it was to accumulate power in the game.

"In my previous life, I never awakened my talent. This time, I want to see what my talent truly is."

Lin Tianhao entered the character creation page, and a lavish promotional video began to play. It was an eight-hour-long video, unskippable except for a complete skip or normal viewing.

In his previous life, almost every player chose to skip it, as eight hours would put them at a significant disadvantage.

But Lin Tianhao didn't skip it, because the first person to watch the entire video would receive a God-rank Talent Awakening Stone.

Talent is a special feature in Ragnarok.

Everyone's talent is different, categorized by rank: Yellow, Mystic, Earthly, Heavenly, Saint, and God.

To awaken a talent, one needs a Talent Awakening Stone.

In his previous life, Lin Tianhao obtained a Saint-rank Talent Awakening Stone, but his awakening still failed.

This indicated that his talent was an extremely rare God-rank talent.

Those with God-rank talents in his previous life all became dominant superpowers.

In this life, he would awaken his God-rank talent.

Combined with his memories from his past life, Lin Tianhao was confident he could reach the pinnacle and defeat the Alaite Star System!

Time ticked by, and finally, the long eight hours ended.

"Ding, congratulations, you are the first player to watch the 'Ragnarok' promotional video, rewarded with a God-rank Talent Awakening Stone +1."

As expected!

Lin Tianhao's face showed a satisfied smile, and in the next moment, he appeared in the character creation hall.

"Class, Archer, Nickname, Xue Di."

Without hesitation, Lin Tianhao chose what he had in his previous life.

"Ding, class creation successful, you are about to enter Novice Village No. 10086."

In the next moment, Lin Tianhao appeared in Novice Village No. 10086.

Each novice village could accommodate ten thousand players, meaning over a hundred million players had already entered Ragnarok, showcasing its immense popularity.

Lin Tianhao moved to a secluded corner, took out the God-rank Talent Awakening Stone, and silently chanted to awaken.

"Ding, due to your high talent, the God-rank Talent Awakening Stone can only partially awaken your talent."

"Ding, you have awakened the talent, Hand of Heavenly Punishment."

Lin Tianhao was stunned for a moment. What was going on? His talent, even a God-rank stone could only partially awaken it?

Surprised, Lin Tianhao immediately checked his talent.

Hand of Heavenly Punishment (Super God-rank): 1-Star

Effect 1: Each basic attack deals true damage equal to 1% of your maximum health.

Effect 2: Each basic attack permanently increases your maximum health by 1 point.

Proficiency: 0/1000.

(Note: Health increase only applies when damaging living entities.)

Lin Tianhao was dumbfounded. Super God-rank?

In his ten years of previous life, he had never heard of a Super God-rank.

And this talent was insanely overpowered.

Permanently increasing health!!

After a brief shock, Lin Tianhao habitually pulled up his attribute panel.

Nickname: Xue Di.

Level: 1 (0/100).

Class: Archer.

HP: 100/100.

MP: 50/50.

Attack: 9. Magic Power: 5.

Special Attributes: None.

Free Attributes: 0.

Luck: Hidden.

Talent: Hand of Heavenly Punishment (Super God-rank).

Skill: Rapid Shot (1-Star).

Equipment: Novice Longbow.

Without the Hand of Heavenly Punishment, this attribute page was quite ordinary.

But, because of the Hand of Heavenly Punishment, his potential was terrifying.

"Time to level up."

Lin Tianhao knew he had already wasted too much time.

Leaving the novice village, he saw level 1 Red-Eyed Rabbits everywhere.

Red-Eyed Rabbit (Common): Level 1.

HP: 90/90.

Attack: 5.

Skills: None.

With average attributes, as long as his operation wasn't too poor, he could hunt them solo.

"Whoosh!"

Lin Tianhao shot an arrow without hesitation.

-8.

At the same time, Lin Tianhao noticed his health increased by one point.

With this talent, he was practically invincible!

Lin Tianhao continued hunting Red-Eyed Rabbits, stacking his health.

Currently, his attack speed was slow, taking about 1.5 seconds to shoot an arrow, which felt a bit awkward compared to his previous life where his attack speed reached 13.5.

"Ding, you have killed a Red-Eyed Rabbit, experience +1."
