In a dark and empty street, four men could be seen running alongside a range of office buildings. Their faces were drenched in sweat, and they looked exhausted enough to tell that they had been running for a long time.
Bang! One man bulged into the door of a building and immediately dashed in. "Get in quickly!"The man yelled at his friends in an exhausted voice.His friends followed suit, their heavy breaths echoing in the empty corridor as they hurriedly made their way inside. The sound of their pounding footsteps reverberated through the building, amplifying the sense of urgency and fear that hung in the air. All of them frantically dashed into the building."Remember to close the door."Another man said this to the young man who was the last to enter. The young man obediently closed the door behind him and followed the others. As they entered, the dimly lit hallway revealed a maze of locked doors and flickering lights, adding to the eerie atmosphere.By this time, the other three men had already dashed into another dark hallway and entered a room. In just a few seconds, the young man managed to catch up with them. One man had kneeled close to a drainage hole cover.The other men stood in front of him, keeping a close eye on him and the surroundings, especially the entrance to the room. Above the kneeling man's head was a hanging lamp emitting dim light. The rays of light shone on the man's intimidating face. It had some scars! The young man couldn't help but feel a sense of unease as he took in the sight of the scars on the kneeling man's face. They seemed to tell a story of past battles and hardships. "There's a hole here that leads to one of the underground tunnels in the city." The man said this as he yanked the drainage cover off the ground. A dark hole appeared. "The underground tunnel will get us out of this area and away from them."The man didn't hesitate; he carefully plunged into the hole. Another man followed.The remaining man and the young man instinctively turned their heads to the room's door when they heard a banging sound. Fear was clearly written on their faces."The-they're here! We need to hurry," the young man whispered, his voice trembling. They exchanged a quick glance before reluctantly descending into the darkness, their hearts pounding with adrenaline.Some people preying on them had just pushed the door of the building open, and footsteps could be heard by the four men.One man frantically lowered himself into the hole, leaving behind the young man. The footsteps were getting closer."Quickly close it."One of the men in the hole yelled from deep down the tunnel, which surprised and astonished the remaining young man. "Close? How about me?" He asked, not understanding what was going on. "I still have to get in.""You ain't with us. You'll see what to do!"Another man in the tunnel said it coldly as he slammed the cover of the tunnel, leaving the young man dumbfounded.The abandoned young man had his eyes wide open in disbelief and was petrified. He hadn't anticipated that the men would abandon him at such a critical moment.He regretted following them."Sh*t!"He ruefully cursed as he stood up.He turned his head only to see a burly man with a gun aiming at him. The burly man was a cop."Hands up and don't move; otherwise, I will shoot you!"As soon as these words left the burly cop's mouth, the young man quickly obeyed. He helplessly raised his hands with a sigh.He had no other option. Nevertheless, in the next moment... Bang! A chair was thrown toward the cop. Luckily, the latter reacted just in time. He shot the chair, and it fell to the floor. At that moment, he felt pain in the hand that was holding a gun as an iron rod violently smashed it. The gun immediately threw itself from his hand and fell to the floor. Before he could react, the young man had already swung the rod a second time. By this time, his target was the cop's face.Bang! "Arghh!"The attack could be considered successful as it successfully smashed the cop's face, inflicting a dark red bruise.The cop grimaced in pain and grabbed the rod before the young man could strike again. Using the other hand, he grabbed the young man's neck. He tightened his grip, strangling the young man."Brat, I'll kill you."The cop hissed through gritted teeth, and the veins on his forehead and neck budged. He looked like a murderous and crazy maniac.Being strangled by a robust man, the young man couldn't breathe in the slightest. His body convulsed as an effect of the event. He attempted to pull the cop's hand away from his neck, but that was a futile attempt. The cop was too strong.The young man's vision started to blur as he desperately gasped for air, feeling his consciousness slip away. Panic surged through his veins as he realized the severity of the situation. The young man's face gradually turned red. If he were not able to free himself from the grip, he would die for sure.Suddenly, he kicked hard at the cop's balls. "Arghh!"That attempt was successful, as the cop immediately left the young man and grabbed his balls in pain.The young man took the opportunity to fill his lungs with air, but he didn't have enough time, so he immediately dashed toward the staircases that
On a messy floor, a young man lied lifelessly. He had dark-brown hair and pale skin.Although his face was extremely pale, it didn't hide the fact that he was handsome.On the floor beneath his belly was a pool of dark-red blood. The sight of the blood contrasted sharply against the pale tiles, creating a gruesome scene. It was evident that he had suffered a severe injury, leaving a trail of crimson leading to his lifeless body.All of a sudden, his fingers twitched slightly, a faint sign of life amidst the stillness of the room. That was accompanied by a weak groan, and then his eyes gently opened. His pupils were gray. As he blinked, the intensity of his gaze revealed a depth of pain and confusion. It was clear that behind his striking appearance, there was a haunting story waiting to be unraveled."I thought I died," he muttered to himself while gradually lifting himself up. He sat on the floor, reached out his hand, and rubbed his undeveloped abs. His expression changed abruptly.
He quickly stood up and dashed to his room. When he was running, his vision went so blurry that he almost collided with a wall. As he reached his room, he rummaged through his belongings. He took a small rucksack and climbed on a ladder, which got him into the attic.This was what his mom had always told him to do whenever he heard a strange sound.Bang! The creature had already barged in, but that was still too late. Nathan had already left the house through the attic. The world Nathan had transmigrated into was in the post-apocalypse. Due to climate change, genes in living things began to evolve. Humans had mutated into powerful and extraordinary beings, while animals had mutated into dangerous creatures.Apart from that, the world was invaded by extraterrestrial creatures known as gouses. The gouses resembled humans, but their skin was comprised of dark purple mineral ores, which made their bodies extremely rough.They had fat and short horns instead of ears, and their eyes were
It had long and thin limbs, red eyes, and long and black teeth. Its mangy fur was matted and covered in dirt, giving it a feral and menacing appearance.‘a dog-hooven’ He recognized the beasts. The beast was devouring some food, making a messy in the kitchen as food pieces rolled all over the floor. Luckily, the beast had its back facing him and didn’t see him.He cautiously took some steps back. He planned that as soon as he managed to reach the doorway without the creature noticing him, he would run as fast as he could. After all, he was very weak and had an eye defect; it wasn’t a good idea to disturb the beast.He took only three steps backward before the beast sniffed an unfamiliar scent. It patiently turned its head and glared directly at him, its eyes filled with a mix of curiosity and aggression. Its hideous face frightened him. The man froze in fear, realizing that his plan had been foiled. He knew he had to think quickly if he wanted to escape the beast's clutches. It snar
"Are there any quests I should complete right now?" He couldn’t wait to level up and unlock new abilities. He knew that by completing quests, he would gain experience and resources that would aid him on his journey to becoming the strongest. With each quest, he grew closer to his goal and became more excited about the challenges that lay ahead.EXP he had was too little. He only got 100 EXP and needed 2000 EXP to level up to Ordinary Level 1. He had a long way to go and needed to find more quests to complete in order to gain the necessary experience. He was determined to put in the effort and dedication required to reach his goal, knowing that each quest he completed would bring him one step closer to becoming the strongest. [Currently, no quests are available.]That firm reply from the system made him feel a twinge of disappointment, but he refused to let it deter him. He still had much time; the system had just been installed a few moments ago, and he was determined to make the mos
At that moment, he heard a horrifying howl. He immediately stopped in his tracks and narrowed his eyes, only to see a big wolf-like creature a few steps in front of him. The beast was devouring the dog-hooven beast, and it was five times bigger than the dog-hooven beast. If he were a normal person with normal vision, he would have already noticed it the moment he got out of the restaurant. The beast howled as it glared at him. Its piercing eyes seemed to hold a mix of hunger and aggression, making it clear that the creature saw him as its next meal. The man's heart raced as he weighed his options, realizing that his survival now depended on either outsmarting or overpowering this formidable adversary.Ding![Scrutinizing the target...Please wait.][Target scrutinized!Target Details:Name: Giant WolfRace: BeastAge: N/AStrength: 50kg+Strength Level: Ordinary Level 5Defense Shield: 10kg\10kg+Health Points: 250/250]He widened his eyes as he stared at the screen in his mind.

"Thank you for your concern," Nathan said, offering a reassuring smile. "I'm just lost in thought for a moment. I appreciate your suggestion, but I assure you, I'm perfectly fine.""How sure are you that you're fine?" the woman asked, her eyebrows furrowing with concern. "It's always better to be safe than sorry, especially when it comes to our health."Nathan couldn't help but notice how caring she was, especially considering that they were completely strangers. He took a moment to gather his thoughts before responding, "I understand your concern, and I truly appreciate it. However, I've been dealing with th
"Do you have any queries?"Captain Aginy suddenly asked while shooting a glance at him. Her face was devoid of expression."I don't have any questions so far."Nathan replied with a shrug while scanning the room with his eyes. The room was sparsely furnished, with only a mattress, a small desk, and a single chair. Nathan's gaze lingered on the plain walls, lacking any personal touches or decorations."Don't worry, once you become a student warrior, you'll have a better place." Samantha uttered it upon seeing Nathan's dissatisfaction with the place. "The military academy's entrance competition will occur in five days. You've got to train hard."In this world, your strength determines your fate. The weak were considered useless and were often overlooked or taken advantage of. The strong received the best services, while the weak received the worst or none at all.Nathan had already gotten to know what kind of world this was, and regardless of his disability, he had decided to do as much
Ha-ha!Ha-ha-ha!With his face still facing down, he glared at the teacher for just a moment."Go to the Executive and grab your present!" Another student shouted."Perhaps he is going to become favored like Alien, the genius who taught him some manners the other day." Another person added.
DUAL SYSTEMS OF GOD WARRIOR
Even though he seemed to be very far from achieving his goals, as he was still inferior, not superior, poor, not rich, ordinary, not extraordinary, and weak, not strong, his determination and willpower remained intact and even got stronger. He refused to let his current circumstances define him and instead used them as fuel to propel himself towards his desired life. With each setback, he became more resilient and unwavering in his pursuit of greatness. He knew that true success required patience, perseverance, and an unwavering belief in oneself."Mister, are we together?" McCaugh asked when he noticed that Nathan had sunk in thoughts. Following McCaugh’s line of sight, the whole class glared at Nathan with a mix of curiosity and concern.<
"How can you do that terrible thing? Juan has a bad reputation when it comes to women. He’s a pervert who enjoys toying with little, petite, and precious girls like you." Nathan's voice was very weak and sorrowful. Juan, the strongest junior student in the Head Red Zone, was rumored to be lecherous and lustful. He enjoyed testing newly ripened sweet fruits like Camille, and then he would dump them for the newest, if available. Nathan had just found out that Juan was enemies with Elida Elliot and Amy Yu for the same reason. He toyed with them and then dumped them when they were D-juniors, while he was only a C-junior who had just advanced a few months ago.
Upon hearing these words Nathan couldn’t hide the stupefied expression on his face. He initially thought the young man was the person who had been in the training space but that wasn’t the case. The young man was someone looking for a training space just like Nathan.He came across an unoccupied training space where Nathan had been waiting for. But Nathan was in deep slumber and didn’t notice the person inside the training space had gotten out.The young man could have occupied it but when he saw Nathan and recognized him, he couldn’t be being touched. He empathized Nathan and chose to let him get it instead.
‘I’m too weak. I can be bullied, and have no right to retaliate. I have to pretend that I don’t feel the pain and got strong." Nathan made up his mind and decided to focus on training hard and become strong.He decided to be a coward and pretend that he didn’t feel the pain. Only when he would become strong it’s when he would be able to do what he wished."I’ll call this operation ‘avoid troubles and get strong’" Nathan mumbled and then stood up. He went out of the apartment.At that moment, Henry was coming out of the washing room when he saw Nathan and got worried. He thought Nathan was up for some m
At the moment, Nathan has $0.00 in his Dot wallet."The training spaces are free, and any student has the right to use them. Why should I pay?" Nathan decided to argue. He clearly knew the practice, but he just wanted to understand what the seizers thought and how they could explain it."Are you too novice that you don’t know how things work here?" Asked Amy Yu indifferently, her hands neatly folded across her chest. Big sword hanging at her back.
Those who could afford it evacuated to the four fortified countries.People lived in peace inside the four fortified countries, and everything outside the walls was forgotten. Sometimes, troops from the fortified countries would go out and search for more survivors. If found, they would bring them to the fortified countries.The four countries were no longer called countries but cities because they consisted of mixed races. Each city got named, respectively, according to where it was located on the map. Westward, eastward, southward, and northward.Continents were no longer recognized, and everyone forgot the fact that the four cities were located on four different continents separate
The young man smirked, unimpressed by Nathan's threat. "Oh really? I'd love to see what you can teach me," he retorted, crossing his arms defiantly. The tension in the room grew as everyone anticipated the clash between the two.Nathan got increasingly annoyed at the young man. He said in a low, menacing voice, "Alright, I'll fulfill your wish then." The class held their breath, unsure of what would happen next."Ha-ha, I’m I not the one who is going to teach my teacher that he’s the weakest here?" said the young man smiling mockingly. "You’re incomparably weak, those 14 and 15’s are much better
"The one with... the brunette." He almost bit himself as he struggled to find the right words to describe her."No matter which one exactly you are talking about, that’s Elida Elliot and Amy Yu, some of the most beautiful girls among juniors, but also..." He stopped for a moment and spoke slowly in a clear tone. "The most powerful and strongest. They are both at Extraordinary level 1."Elida and Amy possess not only physical beauty but also exceptional abilities that set them apart from their peers. It was rumored that they had mastered various forms of combat and possessed extraordinary p
