Player Initiated 11 - Water Pillar
She rushed to the dragon horn the moment he said those words. Ursula extended her hand. Next moment a water piller the height of a hundred meters or so rose from the water. She moved the pillar around the ocean. On the shore, the filming team, who were slowly sailing in for the day, had the shock of their life when they saw the gigantic pillar. “ Film it ! Shoot ! Camera ! Camera ! Where are you ? “ The director scrambled, while the boat man started reversing the direction. “ Hey ! Hey ! We are not going back ! We can’t go back at this time ! “ the director screamed at the captain, but it was of no use. However, it was of no use in the end. The water pillar chased the boat all the way off the island, sending them back to the nearest Island town. Once they were out of the island’s periphery, the water pillar fizzed away in front of them. The Director wanted to return to the coiling dragon island. The captain of the boat refused no matter what, returning them to the island town.

“ I could do that ? Then … Okay. “ Ursula chirped happily. Eric nodded and put all the rest of the meat out, including the pythons and half of the dragon meat. The moment the octopus ate the dragon meat, it lit up, then shrunk into a small tennis ball sized creature. It leveled up countless times as it finished the rest of its meal. Ursula’s fish scale shirt gleamed with more and more luster as the little octopus ate more and more. “ You can stay here, and finish eating. Place marks of terra all over the seven oceans. That is my price. “ Eric told her, seeing as the feeding time is going to be long. Ursula bent ninety degrees to bow. “ Thank you, Apostle. Our tribe can live in peace now, thanks to your help. I will complete the task you gave me as soon as I finish feeding. “ she told him. “ There’s no urgency. I see you came here to be the savior of your tribe. Save your tribe first, then, you can finish the task little by little, as the circumstances permit. Remember, your life

Eric returned to his lounge chair completely unaware someone was setting sail with the sole intention of crushing him to pieces. He retrieved the three dimensional map of the ocean, kept casting ‘digitize’ at all the fishes he was seeing. When he got bored, he switched to the Disassembly game. He started disassembling all the trash appliances he received for spare parts. Then, shifted them all to inventory. He listed them for sale on the retail platform. Most of these appliances are out of date.Just like that, noon arrived. The noon sun is very hot. Fortunately, the island breeze is cool. The entire family laid down to rest inside the tent, including his grandfather. Eric fell into a deep sleep, the fatigue of the day catching up with him. ◇◆◇Fish swam peacefully in blue waters. Water gently lapped at his skin. There is only a slight opening in front of him to see, covered by corals and anemones. “ Ursula ! Ursula ! Where are you ?! Come out this instant, you little turtle !

After he has cursed to his heart’s content, Trevor spoke normally, his face full of cold unbridled fury. “ Every last person in this universe has the right to accuse me of betrayal, Chieftain, but you do not. If not for your lazy incompetent spoiled arse failing to find the awakening altar, our tribe shouldn’t have to go to Tuna tribe at all. If you failed once, you should have tried twice, if you failed twice, you should have tried thrice. You should have gone on the altar finding mission every year, until you found it. However, look at you. You went once, you came back crying like a toddler at the slightest hint of trouble. As soon as the Tuna tribe showed up, you rolled down to lick their feet. What right do you have to accuse me ? “ Trevor hissed at him. Then, he slowly composed himself. “ If you want to keep being a chieftain, I suggest you keep licking the Tuna tribe’s tails properly. After all, though adopted, I am still a member of the Tuna tribe. A lowly goby like you shoul
Player Initiated 15 - Turning Point
Stevia Mangrove looked at the quest icon that popped up at 2 am in the night, pissed as a cat whose tail was stepped on. If it were normal times, she would have clicked yes, no matter how angry she was, for the quest freezes away player system, unless you accept the quest. She has a player system with research talent. She thought her ability was trash, but fortunately, she was able to meet Peter Ho. Together, they cleared the quest that allowed her to change her job to druid. She was very thankful to him. In due course, she joined his server. However, from the time she did, his attitude made one eighty degree change. He treated her like a slave. Stevia would not have it, so she broke up with him. Peter is stingy, petty, worse yet, timid. He is like a little mosquito that just would not get out of the house, yet will not reach near enough to get killed. So, she decidedly moved away from S-city to this small island, just to avoid him. One by one, she remo
Player Initiated 16 - Close Call
Eric promptly woke up at three in the morning. The high tide will begin in half an hour, and they are going to set out. The opening of the bay on their island is like an elongated oval arch. As such, getting in/out is easier as the tide rises. Today, he and his grandfather were going to the island town to pick up the materials for construction. Once they joined the sea channel, they killed the engine and raised the sails. The morning breeze takes them all the way near Island town in exactly two and half hours. This breeze is almost as punctual as clockwork. His grandfather took a nap inside the cabinet. Eric opened the laptop. Their boat was equipped with a satellite receiver, so he has wifi and signals even on the boat. ‘ Map ‘ He called out. All around him, a hologram of blue sea lit up, extending up to ten meters. Eric flapped his hands, trying to zoom out. Every time he widened his arms then brought them together, the map region increased in size, showing all the areas covered

As the hoodie guy’s body dissipated in the air, a small skill ball dropped from the body. Eric swam as fast as he could, ignoring the sharks all over the place, grabbing the ball, then heading straight for the small crack inside the sea wall. His pathfinder ability shone in this short swim, allowing him to avoid sharks, as well as nab the skill ball. He breathed silently, with his nose barely a millimeter above water level. In front of his eyes, a concise map of eight inches is formed, showing the scene above. Around Peter Ho, a red circle is drawn, showing his area of influence. At the same time, a vertical red circle was drawn with him as center, then, it started spinning. The vertical red circle will cut through me, Eric realized as the circle started spinning slowly. He just had this feeling he would be dead meat the moment the red circle touches him. So, he slid sideways, attached himself to the crack as flexibly as he could while holding his breath. It felt like even his breat

Unless he can use the levitation skill on objects. No matter what, being able to hang an object at a height would be a useful life skill. At worst, he would use it to bait monsters. Eric observed the map. This time, he expanded the area of observation. Soon, Peter was visible, but not as the perfect three dimensional shape before, but as a red dot over a rough terrain. Currently, Map is at level four. Within fifty to thirty meter distance, the picture quality is mind blowing. With-in an hundred meter round eye, he could move this thirty meter pupil to observe in more detail. Outside the pupil, inside the hundred meters sphere of influence, the objects are displayed toned down, with rough three dimensional maps, identifying shape, with blurry features. Then there is the satellite view, where distance is not relative, only direction and enmity could be detected. Now, Peter is in the eye, but not within the pupil. He is pacing on the tallest building, seemingly doing nothing, but Eric

“ Your highness, you wanna come and say hello to Island channel’s viewers ? “ Eric asked. Mimi skipped over to him with ballet steps.“ Hello, citizens of Arendelle. Morning greetings to you all. “ she greeted, then skipped back up to the pavilion with one twirl at each step. [ daughter_slave999 ] : Wow ! She is so cute ! [ tablefor11 ] : Children are so happy anywhere. Which idiot said she was abused ! [ nonaMakers ] : A fine morning to you too, your highness. How is the ice production going ?

First, we will install the rope lift in the bay. Hopefully, we can go to the sea today. “ Eric informed the guys on the broadcast. Eric’s grandfather took over the screen after that. The last bag is unpacked in front of the audience. [ Aluminium sheets x 10 ] [ Welding tools x 20 ] [ Welding powder x

Eric just returned as the live barrage was full of activity. Chills ran on his spine as he looked at their conversation about the house. To be truthful, he made the bricks on planet Kepler, and the cement too. Fortunately, the island really did have a cave. They really used to store soy sauce and the materials there. There was some oyster shell cement there. Eric used that little bit of it to just give a dab on the house, giving it an effect of being built with oyster shell cement. ‘ I have such good foresight. ‘ he gave a pat on head for himself. The living though, he had been worrying about it too. His grandfather was finally able to catch one sentence at this time. So, he answered instead of Eric. “ My grandson says, we will buy a helicopter in the future. “ he told the audience. [ fans ] : ???“ and we will run a hotel. “ [ fans ] : ?????!!!Eric smiled at his grandfather’s succinctness. He took the phone to himself. “ Hello dear viewers, I am back. “ Eric said, looking a

Eric and family finished their daily routine, then Eric habitually turned on his phone for the live broadcast. He has monetized his channel since the first day he began constructing the house. He was shocked to find the subscriber count increased significantly, and the donations are on the rise. After some searching, he realized the reason is because of the weatherman who came in the morning. The comments in the live stream are all worrying for his family. Eric reassured them. “ Everyone, please do not worry. We have a freshwater supply. People can live up to three months on just water. Even the heavens will run out of water if they want to keep raining for three months, right ? “ Eric said a bit cheekily, as he jumped from one of the boulders to another. The supply drop fell right in the middle of the boulder basin. It looked like a flower fallen among dinosaur eggs from this high up. Eric speeded up towards the supply crate. If not for his stat increased physique, he almost cou

After the departure of the filming team, Eric was able to work freely. He entered the Factorio game, removed the mines. When he adds a game building feature to a real piece of land, that area becomes inaccessible in reality. The others, like his family, instinctively avoid the place. When they were forced to enter, they … felt like they hit a barrier. As soon as he was done with the little experiment, he opened the laptop. He switched the game to home builder. He has more than enough wood, limestone, iron and iron plates. He simply used the production games to create bricks, then smelt the iron into rods he needed. Almost all apocalyptic games offered some kind of brick making, yet, he chose to make his bricks in the Dyson Sphere program, choosing planet kepler 452-b. By now, he has grasped the reality conversion feature roughly. When he places an iron mining drill on a random digitized area, as long as the AI could find iron in any digitized part of that planet, iron can and wil

His return was as silent as his departure.However, that all changed when he brought out the treasure chests. “ How ? “ his grandmother breathed in, with wonder and disbelief on her face. “ The cove forming the bay is also raised in elevation, grandma. Water receded from their resting place. But … Do you know these chests ? “ he asked curiously. When he retrieved them, he thought they belonged to the game system that made him a player. “ We brought these chests with us when we escaped in the seventies. “ his grandmother told him. It seems his grandparents were residents of S-city, and they arrived here during the time of great dislocation… probably to avoid persecution. What’s even more surprising was that his grandfather retrieved a set of bronze keys from his pocket. He put it through the first chest, opened it cautiously. The entire chest was filled with pure gold bars. Eric’s eyes were dazzled. Even in the present day, gold has not depreciated much. His grandfather nonchala

Eric made the round trip to the dragon temple within an hour. [ Terra ] [ 98.4 % ] [ Aqua ] [ 23.7 % ] [ Skye ] [ 6.1 % ] [ Cosmos ] [ 2.9 % ] The status of server completion displayed on his onyx ring. When he held it up to the light, it looked like it’s full of runic symbols. “ What constitutes the server completion ? “ Eric mused. [ A server must have an inkling of F to A, and S level realms. ] “ An Inkling ? “ Eric pondered about the strange choice of words. [ As long as a player passed within 10 meter distance from the realm, the realm is registered in the server. ] [ As long as the realm coincides the digitized land for a millimeter, the realm is registered in the server. ] Eric climbed down after verifying the information. The realm must be something similar to the flood dungeon he entered. ‘ Never mind ! Return for now. I am living a slow life this time around ! ‘ he encouraged himself. When he returned, his mother finished cooking dinner, and

That creature can not be killed by bullets or arrows. This much, Eric realized instinctively. The only way to kill should be the aura gun. However, an aura gun can not kill a creature of higher level than itself. Eric searched through his console with trembling fingers and increased urgency to find something, anything that could kill the creature rising in front of him. He had a bad feeling about this one. His bad feelings are rarely wrong ! [ Merge ] Finally he found a skill among the level skills he received. It was the reward for crossing level 90. He pointed at the aura gun box, and tried to merge. [ place three items of similar type to merge them to receive a higher or same level item ] ‘ The f*** ! ‘ ‘ It is a damned gachapon style merge ! ‘ But he was grasping at the straws. The creature would complete its arrival any minute now. The three petaled octopus could only be hurt when you shoot right in the center of their mouth when they are open. Everywhere else on their

Digger is far too slow. Eric racked his brain for options… Can he make a whirlpool with water manipulation ? Wait ! For that he needs talent from Ursula. If talent sharing is working, then isn’t it better to share the mud manipulation talent from his grandmother ? He immediately opened the console. To check if the talent share is available. [ Talent share outsourcing ( level 0 ) ][ You can chose up to 1 talent, which will work at (N) percent reduction in strength. ] [ Water manipulation ( 90% ) from Ursula ] [ Mud manipulation ( 90% ) from Dolly ] [ Water manipulation ( 90% ) from Mimi ] [ Blade work ( 10% ) from Song Tu ] [ Chef’s domain ( 95% ) from Song Anxia ] [ Plant growth ( 50% ) from Stevia Mangrove ] Eric expected water manipulation to be heavily debuffed. He was surprised that his grandfathers’ talent has such little penalty, and his mother’s domain has such a high penalty ! Do I have seedlings ? Eric mused. Just as he was about to open the inventory, he paused
