The city's neon lights flickered, casting long shadows across the desolate alleyways of New Eden. It was a world where magic and technology intertwined, creating a landscape filled with wonders and dangers alike. Hazeed, a well-known mercenary in the urban underbelly, navigated these streets with a sense of purpose, his steps silent yet swift. His mission tonight was supposed to be straightforward: infiltrate the abandoned sector controlled by the notorious Omega Syndicate and retrieve a data crystal containing sensitive information. However, the air reeked of a setup, the too-quiet streets whispering warnings he chose to ignore. As he neared the target location, a sudden, piercing headache overwhelmed him. Hazeed stumbled, clutching his head, as an unseen force assaulted his mind. The pain was excruciating, as if his very thoughts were being torn apart. It was the Omega's doing; he was sure of it. They had somehow hacked the neural chip embedded in his brain, a chip that not only e
Hazeed stood, looking around with a mix of awe and apprehension. He was trapped in an unknown world, a place where giant mushrooms pierced the clouds and strange plants sprawled as far as the eye could see. The atmosphere was humid, filled with a distinct earthy aroma, while the sky was a yellowish-green, creating a setting that was simultaneously alien and mesmerizing. With every step, Hazeed felt the ground beneath him softly rumble, as if the world itself was communicating in a language he couldn't understand. A deep hunger gnawed at his stomach, forcing him to remain vigilant and search for any potential food sources in this forest of giant mushrooms. He began to walk, avoiding plants that looked too foreign or dangerous. Previous encounters with luminescent mushrooms had taught him not to indiscriminately consume anything he found, no matter how hungry he was. However, as he ventured further into the mushroom forest, a discovery caught his attention. In front of him was a small
Hazeed, now dressed in a different uniform, surveyed the multitude of humans imprisoned around him. The situation became even more bewildering as he realized he had seemingly switched roles with someone else from the user's narrative. Nevertheless, he knew he had to act swiftly to help these captives and understand the new reality he found himself in. With determination in his eyes, Hazeed began to devise a plan to free the imprisoned humans and uncover the mysteries of this unfamiliar world.Gathering his newly formed team, Hazeed addressed them, his voice firm but reassuring. "Alright everyone, listen up. We find ourselves in a situation none of us expected, but we can't dwell on that now. Our priority is to free these prisoners and ensure their safety. We need to work together and stay focused."One of his team members, a young woman with a determined look, spoke up. "But how do we even know who to trust? We're in a completely unfamiliar environment."Hazeed nodded, understanding h
It was early in the morning, but Hazeed's misfortune had already begin.Hazeed, who was washing his bike, was shocked when the landlady threw everything out of his room.Not only that, but she turned off the water tap."Get out of here right now, you're five months in arrears and you're still wasting water! This room is already rented!" said Ms. Lisa."But ma'am, I'm still working on it," said Hazeed, hurriedly putting down the water hose and quickly tidying up his clothes that were scattered outside the room."No, you can't! Leave now because the person will be here soon," said Mrs. Lisa adamantly.Hazeed could only remain silent. He realized that he was five months in arrears and it was very good for him that Ms. Lisa was only kicking him out now.Hazeed couldn't do much about it. He quickly carried his meager belongings away on his old moped.The sun was still warm on his tan skin. Hazeed's only thought this time was to try to find a rooming house that he could fill without having
"Sir, I didn't do anything wrong, sir!" said Hazeed when two policemen arrived and immediately handcuffed him.There was even more commotion outside the clinic. Students who were arriving for classes now gathered in the clinic courtyard.Many of them began documenting and sharing information about Hazeed's arrest on social media."My day is complete," Hazeed thought as the police patrol car drove away from the clinic with him.Arriving at the police station, Hazeed was immediately questioned and bombarded with so many questions.The man really couldn't answer what the investigators were asking because he wasn't involved in the drug cartel as they intended."How much do you get paid to keep your mouth shut like this?" one of the police officers snapped at him.Hazeed repeated his answer."I don't know the woman, let alone get paid, I am the victim of the collision, sir, what is the fate of my motorcycle?" Hazeed said with half resignation.But the investigators did not take his word fo
He was still left with many questions about the phone. He even searched the internet for the name of the cell phone but there was nothing like it.A large phone like a handy talkie but with a screen that was very different from most phones today. Especially in its features.Hazeed, who was trying to figure this out, finally fell asleep very soundly because he was tired after all the things he had been through."I Am Omega, who woke me up?" someone said. But Hazeed, who was fast asleep, didn't notice.The warm morning touched Hazeed's face.Staying in that hut all night made him think hard now. Even though he was losing his way. But he didn't want his grandparents back in the village to know what had happened to him."I have to go to the college," Hazeed said.Using a water source he found near the field, he washed his face and cleaned his body. He separated some of his clean clothes.Once he was dressed, Hazeed walked to the campus to attend his classes. Hazeed himself is an outstandi
"Come in, follow the route that will guide you, Mr.H!" Omega's voice sounded so cold this time.Hazeed then stepped inside."What? This is a driverless car? Autopilot? It really works systematically using a computer system connected to its center?" Hazeed said in amazement."Sir, Omega will lead you to your first mission," Omega said.TREKThe black car locked and accelerated to a lake behind an old factory.This lake was an artificial lake in the middle of the city, used as a water catchment area for the city."What should I do here?" said Hazeed."First Mission, save the children," said Omega, accompanied by the sound of a door opening.BUKKHazeed tumbled to the ground, as his chair had apparently shifted with him."You suck! Can't you just put me down quietly! What a lousy system!" grumbled Hazeed as he patted his clothes that had become soiled with dirt."Help! Help!" said someone from the lakeside.Hazeed was stunned to see two people struggling at the edge of the lake trying to
"Next to your house is Ms. Lisa's boarding house," said Mr. Kardi.Hazeed frowned.A room on the outside of the house was then handed over to him. Hazeed felt very much at home, especially since there was a parking lot here too, which allowed him to save money."Thank you son, I hope you feel at home," said Mr. Kardi, who had rented out one of the rooms in his house to Hazeed."You're welcome sir, I'm very grateful that you offered me a room," said Hazeed.He immediately cleaned up the room that would now be his home. He was grateful that he could finally sleep comfortably again.Even so, his mind was still confused by the OMEGA system that kept appearing on his cell phone.It was getting late, and Hazeed felt free. He took out his antique cell phone and started to turn it on."It won't turn on?" said Hazeed in confusion. He then tried to charge it, but nothing fit into the charger hole."What kind of data cable is this?" said Hazeed as he continued to look up the size and specificati
