136 - New Threat
Adams threw his hands up.“You had a PHASE ONE that could blow up HALF A PLANET!”The Knight blurred, and was suddenly in front of him.Adams reacted on instinct, shield snapping up as the Knight’s blade slammed down.KRAKABOOOOOM!!The impact threw him backward like a cannonball. He smashed into the arena wall, stone cracking around him.[Shield Integrity: 21%]“SHIELD, YOU BETTER HOLD UP, BUDDY!”The Knight didn’t give him a second. It descended on him like a falling meteor, sword raised for a vertical strike aimed straight at his skull.Adams rolled, the blade smashed into the wall, creating a crater of red cracks.He scrambled to his feet… coughing.“System, PLEASE tell me you have something useful. Anything. A buff. A hack. A glitch. A cookie, ”[Recommendation: Acquire ‘Adrenaline Overclock.’][Cost: 600 Credits]“…Credits or dollars?”[Dollars.]Adams froze.“…Okay. Wait. Think. That’s almost a rent.”The Null Knight turned toward him, sword rising.[Recommending Purchase Stron
135 - Phase Two?
The Null Knight’s sword finished its descent, a red-lit arc screaming toward Adams’ skull.Adams pivoted, shield braced, planting his feet like an anchor in the shaking arena.KRAK-BOOOM!!The impact sent a shockwave through the tiles, bursting red sparks like fireworks. Adams slid backward several feet, boots grinding, shield vibrating violently, but he held.The Null Knight’s burning eyes narrowed, as if surprised its opening strike had not cleaved him in two.Adams grinned, wild, adrenaline-fueled.“Round two,” he growled.“I’m not dying in a pay-to-win arena.”The Null Knight raised its blade for another devastating swing.And Adams charged. The Null Knight’s blade came down in a burning red arc, Adams dodged, the wind from the strike ripping past his cheek like a slicing furnace.The ground where he had stood erupted, tiles flung upward in a violent explosion of glitching light.“YOU MISSED!” Adams shouted, but the Knight didn’t react with frustration. It reacted like a program l
134 - Null Knight
_Name:_ Adams Smith _System Type:_ A Master's System _Health:_ 20% _System Points:_ 400 _Tokens:_ 250 _Money:_ $58000 _Kills:_ 3The forest shimmered, first at the edges of Adams’ vision, then everywhere at once.Golden leaves pixelated into jagged squares. The grass beneath him liquefied into green code.The sky glitched like a corrupted video file, sunlight stuttering in and out of existence.“No, no, no, STOP!” Adams braced himself, but his legs were shaking, half-dead from exhaustion and pain.[Transition Sequence Initiated.]A violent PULL yanked at his spine, as if invisible hooks were dragging him backward. Adams clawed into the disintegrating ground, fingers slipping through glitching soil.“SYSTEM, HOLD ON, !! Just, let me breathe…!”The world exploded into white.FWOOOM, !!He was weightless. Breathless. And Falling.THUD.He landed hard on a flat stone.Adams groaned. “Why am I always being thrown like a ragdoll…?”He pushed himself up on shaky arms. And froz
133 - A Ravager
Adams’ vision flickered.One moment he stood in blazing neon, the scattered remains of beetles dissolving into blue sparks, the last scream of the hostile entity fading into silence, and then…Everything went black.A sharp, low hum rippled through his bones. The ground beneath him shifted.And then, FWOOOSHCold wind slapped his exposed face as Adams staggered forward into a new world. Grass. Actual grass.Bright green, dew-soaked blades brushed against his armored boots. Towering trees stretched endlessly above him, sunlight dripping through golden leaves. The air smelled like damp soil, warm wood, and something faintly metallic.Adams blinked hard.“…What the hell?” His voice cracked in disbelief.He spread his fingers, touching the rough bark of a nearby tree.“This… this feels real. Like actual real.”Gone were the neon lights, the digital grids, and the echoing synthetic hum.His visor reflected natural sunlight for the first time since he’d woken up in the system.“System?” h
132 - Remember Them
Lorenzo didn’t stop.He slammed the Gravity Shard into the floor.A ripple tore through the Underpit. Reality buckled around the creature.Its body jerked downward, crushed under ten times the normal force.Metal groaned. Pipes warped.The Forsaken hit the ground hard, pinned in a kneeling position, mask sparking wildly.“HOW DO YOU LIKE TEN TONS, YOU BLIND BASTARD?!”The Forsaken’s claws gouged trenches in the steel as it fought the gravity field, inch by inch.Too close. Lorenzo felt his adrenaline ticking down.59 seconds…48…42…He rushed in with the reinforced spear. The Forsaken 14 slammed a claw into his ribs CRUUACK!Lorenzo screamed.He flew backward, rolling across the ground, coughing blood.Health: 310% → 120%He forced himself up, spitting red.“I’m… not… dying here.”The Forsaken tore free of the gravity field with a violent surge of rage.It stood. Mask glowing. Muscles bulging. A dozen voices screaming layered inside its throat.“…H O S T … M U S T … B E … C O N S U
131 - Explosion Backlash
The spear met flesh. Like pushing into a drowning man’s last breath. The Forsaken’s arm halted mid-lunge, more from surprise than pain.Its mask jerked toward Lorenzo, steam hissing out in furious bursts.For a split, time-stretched moment… Lorenzo felt powerful.Then the creature reacted.A backhand came faster than an instinct. Faster than a thought.It was a blur of black-red and metal.CRACK.The hit launched Lorenzo like a ragdoll. Everywhere first blurrr!He slammed into a rusted generator with a bone-rattling THUD and slid to the ground in a heap. Stars exploded behind his eyes. His lungs spasmed, refusing to inflate for a second that felt like someone pressing a gun to his skull.Health: 1025% → 880%He gasped, violently dragging air back in.“F–fuck ”He scrambled up just as the Forsaken 14 tore the maintenance shaft apart. Exploding out in a snapping thick steel like wet twigs.It landed on all fours, spine arching, with mask glowing with internal heat.“…H O S T … I N I T
