Sedrick and Melina eyes were filled with hope when they heard Tenkin's words. At the moment any method they'd use to get out of the place was of paramount importance to them. As they too had gotten tired of staying in the dungeon, it was like dying of isolation.

A slow and painful death in a prison, they didn't know how long it'd take for the NPC's to rectify the issue that's if they ever did.

"There's a natural hot spring behind these walls" Tenkin said rubbing his temples as he went back to lay on the rocky ground.

"Wait is that it?" Sedrick who had been paying keen attention asked in annoyance.

"Something must be wrong with this guy's head" Sedrick muttered. He was getting his hopes high for no reason.

Once again, Allison herself was left stunned she didn't quite understand what Tenkin was trying to pull at.

Tenkin raised a hand, gesturing Allison to come closer.

"This is a cave, so we have the two major constituents, all that's left is the last" Tenkin said.

"For what exactly?" Al

    Nolan didn’t like the way things were turning out at all and it was only going to turn out worse as more and more spears were appearing practically out of thin air.With rhythmic movements he swiftly evaded the spears heading over to Emmy’s.“Sorry about that” he said helping her up“There’s nothing to be sorry about, it’s nt your fault” she said, gritting her teeth in pain.[-300NP][Regeneration pill purchased!]Immediately she swallowed the pill just as it appeared and instantly her hands regenerated. It was akin to watching those fast forwarded videos where in one minute you could see a seed becoming a flower.It was somewhat annoying for her, losing so much Nano points in a stretch but it was far worse than losing a life for her. She flexed her new arm to be sure it was fit and working.Although it wasn’t working out perfectly she knew she just had to give it some time which she didn’t have.

    A flicker of determination lights up in Tenkin's eyes as he surveys their surroundings. His gaze lands on the various components scattered around the cell—chunks of sulfur from the damp walls, scraps of charcoal from the meager rations they had been given, and the residue of oil lamps that flickered weakly in the darkness.It had taken him quite a lot of time and energy to gather up the charcoal, he had to use the little nano points he had left to create just enough flames to burn up the wooden plates the guards had given them to use and eat.The plan had already been formed in Tenkin's mind. All that was left was to make sure the others understood and as such he called them in to explain one more time;"Listen," he whispers urgently, drawing his companions closer. "We have everything we need right here to create a distraction, a way out of this place."Allison looks at him, her eyes widening with a mixture of hope and apprehension. Sedrick and Melina exchange skeptical glances but sa

    As they entered into the car like entrance they were met with a new world, an otherworldly sight that left them in awe. But regardless they still knew they had to be careful."It just reminds me of the saying, 'beautiful things are the most dangerous'" Nolan said, as he entered into the cave carefully, Emmy following right behind him."You have to be careful, I have a feeling this is where the boss has been hiding " Emmy said, looking around still bewildered by the sight before her eyes.On the inside, the cave appeared to be much wider and spanned to quite a large extent as well. The walls were coated in thick blue ice that gave lighting to the whole place, and this was same for the ceilings as well.It was as though they had entered an underground ice palace. The blue walls had red spirals running through them in all directions, in a vein-like pattern.It looked distorted but still had a hint of beauty in it. As the walked to the center of the passage the earth beneath their feet t

    Nolan opened his eyes in a different space, it looked like a temple, arranged in a mystical way. It appeared to be in a space different from the rest of the world, floating in some kind of void.Star's could be seen shinning brightly, although quite distant from where he was. The temple stood large and tall exuding a powerful aura, one that Nolan had never felt before.Suddenly on the alter a bright blue light shone, and Nolan began to hear whispers voices calling out to him, and before his eyes Allison appeared on top the alter calling out to him as well."Nolan, come, come help me I can't get out of here !" Allison said with a pleading voice calling unto Nolan.Nolan could see her being bounded by several chains and quickly he made haste to save her.-You have encountered a memory, will destiny follow the same linings or with it take a different turn.The system notification rang out, however, Nolan had already gone way too dee

    Nolan and Emmy were locked in a tight spot, how they'd defeat the enemy was something they had no idea how to go about."Like how are we even meant to kill that thing?!" Nolan was pissed off, he had been attracting all sorts of trouble since he'd entered the game.However, they both knew they had no time to ponder on what to do, as their enemy lunged directly towards them.With haste, Nolan retrieved a second sword from his second space, ready for a fierce battle.His eyes fixed on his enemy, his breath steady and slow, although still recovering from his injury. His steps were fast and a mere second the two entered into a fierce clash of swords.Nolan's display from earlier completely paled in comparison to what he was doing now, each step and strike was well calculated, and now with the intent to kill.Emmy couldn't hide the bewildered look on her face.

    Cold sweat trickled down Nolan's face as the monster stood right in front of him. At the moment he was at the mercy of the cruel beast and couldn't do anything.Right after the notification from he system it felt as though all the muscles in his body had melted. His whole body felt sore and he could hardly even move an arm."What am I going to do" He thought as he watched the beast, his eyes still shinning with resilience. He knew he had no other escape ticket, but still yet giving up for him wasn't an option.Spirals of energy began spinning round the beast hands, as an ice spear began to form. It looked at Nolan it's eyes devoid of mercy. He could tell that there was no escaping this one again.He looked towards Emmy who seemed to be petrified. This was the part of human nature that he loathed so much. Despite all that he'd risk to help her during the hard times, now he was about to face a cruel death and she seemed to be contemplating over what to do."If I were the one I would ju

    Emmy was doing a wonderful job. So far, the beast wasn't even given the slightest chance to do anything.It was a barrage of energy bullets and Nolan knew those things were eating up a lot of Nano points from her and also some power points as well.Although the two differed in their functions, the gun she was currently using was a A-type weapon and could apparently mix in the two to give a powerful output.Seeing the much she was giving out, just to let him survive, really touched him. He felt bad as he'd doubted her earlier.Emmy kept shooting relentlessly, sending pieces of flesh and ice crystals in all directions. Their was no spacing withing the attacks to give the beast any chance to retaliate."What the?!"

    On the vast horizon, three figures could be seen walking together towards a huge fort with a large rotunda situated in its center."If we can go round the fort, it won't alert anyone right?""Yeah, I don't think that's possible either, they have scouts around the area, to inform if there's any sort of attack from Kelmer's" Emmy said, seemingly thinking of the best possible way to cross their boundaries without causing a ruckus.Stella who had been listening in on their conversation decided to ask."What's a Kelmar?""Did you participate in the testing program? You seem to be quite lacking in terms of information" Emmy asked"No I didn't, I'm usually very busy with work in reality, so I don't have time for things like that" she replied"Wait, what?

    After dealing with Frey, he looked towards the Fox. Although he didn't pay much attention during their encounter earlier, he did notice that it initially had nine tails which now suddenly turned to eight. By its side, Frey's body re-emerged strong and healthy as it was before, leaving Alex in shock. 'Wait, what if ?' a sudden realization struck him, as he decided to go through the bosses' stats. -Snowflake 100th Boss of the world- -Special Ability: Second chance- -Description: ability to grant any individual a grace of revival at the cost of one of its tail. -ability can be used more than once- -Attributed ability: can use multiple elemental abilities. However, this depends on the number of tails it has. Alex was stunned when he saw the ability of the Fox. This could only be considered a cheat! The skill gave an additional nine lives to the three that were already offered by the game system. 'She can revive eight more times, and I've only got one time before I'm turned

    "Here is the list," Rick said as he handed the long list they compiled from all the research facilities in the city. Taking a glance at the list, she searched from the top to the bottom, but still yet she couldn't find the name she longed to see. She had spent almost half of the night going through the list intensely. 'Nolan I hope you're alright' For one she was worried, because the only group of people who weren't in the research facilities, were those whom their parents, family or guardians, asked for home treatment. Next, were those who were dead. However, she couldn't bear the thoughts of having Nolan dead, as their relationship had progressed thus far. -------------- Meanwhile, "Well what a shocking surprise, it seems the faction leader of the red skull faction is a boss of the game. It happens that you're the only one I have seen with such a peculiar condition, so tell me how did you do it?" Fray asked as she looked down at Alex from her throne-like seat, with the fox b

    Inside his research room, Thomson had finally decided that it was best to see what Solace had left behind. He picked up the flash drive, and then inserted it into his system. They were a series of files on the flash drive, and one had been saved as 'Important file'. Opening the file, he could only see one video and he played it. "Thomson. If you are by any chance watching this video, It probably means that I am dead." Solace's voice resounded in the room. "To be sincere, I have no idea who is behind all this. I could only make speculations after I talked with Alicia, Claven's assistant. We worked hand in hand to find out how to stop the game. She wanted to prove that Claven was innocent at all cost, to save the dignity and hard work he had put into making the game, although somewhere deep down I doubted this, I made no mention of it, so our partnership would last longer. She informed me of a certain man who had come to meet Claven saying something about the 'void' that we made, say

    'Boom!' A loud explosion echoed in their base, and it didn't end there. Standing amid all the rubble and the destroyed wall was a man with a lightsaber in his hand, wearing a long black leather coat with a shirt that had an 'x' running down from the shoulders to the far end of the shirt. He wore plain black trousers and a black jade mask with a huge red cross drawn on it. 'That old bastard, I'll just have to do what he wants for now' he said, gritting his teeth ever so slightly.

    Sitting on a large throne-like seat, the woman sat with her leg crossed, she had long white hair reaching her waistline, and she had a cold expression as she looked down on the man who had come to give the reports on the faction's engagement, she wore a black singlet to match with her white pants which had the military's known design on them, standing like a watchdog by her side was a large white snowy fox with six tail's, it had a little taint of red on its forehead and looked quite cute despite its huge height and size as it snuggled her hand, but there was something oddly noticeable about this fox and that was the strong murderous intent it emitted."Faction leader fray, this is the faction's report for the month"Read it out," she said resting her head on her hands showing disinterest and boredom"From the reports, the faction has scaled up to 2nd in the Games Faction Leaderboard and….."Can't you do any better, who's the first on the leaderboard?"

    'Splash'. A loud sound was heard in one of the large glass tubes, a figure could be seen struggling inside a large glass tube that was filled with a weird and somewhat sticky liquid. She had an oxygen mask on inside the tube, allowing her to breathe inside the glass tube easily, 'where am I?" she thought."Sir Thomson, one of the brain scanners went off,""Go and check it out, I am busy right now" Thomson replied."Alright sir" the worker replied as he ran off to check the tubes. He reached the lab room where the glass tubes were kept. He walked up to the glass tube he had seen on the desktop computer. He could see the beautiful figure, a girl with long brown hair, fair skin color, and a well-shaped face. She gave off a mesmerizing aura of beauty which easily allured him, but something else was lingering in his mind as he thought 'how is she awake?Pressing the green button on the tube, it opened up, pouring the liquid onto the floor and letting her out.
