125 - His Past
Five minutes later. The forest soil under Lorenzo began to dissolve. Before he could make a move, a large hole was formed under the soil and he was immediately swallowed in.Lorenzo froze. Unable to say anything as he kept tumbling deeper and deeper into the hole.No. No way.Everything came to a halt. He landed upon a concrete surface. Fuck! Lorenzo cursed as he gently pressed his ass that had just been painfully smacked by the concrete. He blinked hard, trying to recognize where he was, and there it was: the broad courtyard of his old university. Now with cracked benches, worn red bricks, and faded posters clinging to notice boards like half-rotted skin. Students weren’t here, though. The place was empty and silent.“System,” he growled. “What are we doing here? Don't tell me this is where the next enemy is going to attack.”[Good guess!][Environment Change: Triggered.][Location Constructed: Host’s Former University.]Lorenzo rolled his eyes.“Alright then, increase my health to
124 - Leveled Up
[Omega-9 Activation Mode: Survivor’s Endurance][Stamina Boost: 20%Pain Suppression: 35%]That was it. Where's the shield he had requested?[System notification: Health too low to command full activation]Asshole! He had no time to spare exchanging words with such a wicked system.The python lunged, its fangs flashing, and Lorenzo threw himself to the side. Its jaws slammed into the earth where he’d been a second earlier, dirt and leaves exploding upward.He scrambled up, clutching a broken branch in his hand. His knuckles whitened as he held it like a spear, even though he knew it would barely scratch the monster’s scales.The serpent’s golden eyes glowed in the dim forest light, its tongue flicking in and out as though mocking him.“You’re not taking me that easily,” Lorenzo muttered, though his chest heaved, and his vision swayed from the blood loss and exhaustion.The python struck again, faster. Lorenzo thrust the branch forward, aiming for its eye.Crack!The makeshift weapon s
123 - Activation Command Rejected
_Name:_ Lorenzo Jamie _System Type:_ Omega-9 Survivor _Health:_ 77% _System Points:_ 15 _Tokens:_ 4 _Money:_ $470 _Kills:_ 3Staring at his newly updated stats, he felt a sense of relief wash over him. If he could continue to survive seven more tasks, he'll be out of bere.His shirt was stiff with dried blood, and though the health pack had dulled the pain, the memory of the Feathered Insect’s claws still burned in his shoulder.Lorenzo blinked as the cold, sterile walls dissolved like smoke. The air grew thick and damp, the ground beneath his boots softening into a bed of leaves. Towering trees loomed overhead, their gnarled branches clawing at a pale sky. The faint, artificial hum of the system was replaced by the chorus of insects and the distant call of what is likely the new entity .His location has now changed into a forest. A damn forest.His body felt mostly healed from the previous fight, no torn muscles screaming at him, no blood slicking his side. But there was som
122 - Finally Been Lifted
Matilda lunged again, and this time, her claws connected. Blood burst from Baxter’s shoulder as talons ripped through flesh and bone. He howled, rolling to the side, but he was not fast enough; her tail, now spiked and slick with venom, lashed across his ribs with a sickening crack. [System Alert: Rib fracture – Major. Lung integrity compromised.] She laughed, the sound deep and demonic, echoing in unnatural frequencies. “You bleed so easily, little boy,” she mocked. “Maybe you haven’t grown up at all.” She grabbed him by the throat and lifted him. His feet dangled inches above the floor. Her grip was molten fire, her eyes glowing pits of crimson hatred. “I begged your father to let me keep you,” she hissed. “He said I could have you whenever he didn’t need you. And I did. Again and again. And you.. ” her grin widened “.. You never fought back.” Baxter’s body convulsed in pain. His vision tunneled. He could feel his life leaking out of him. But somewhere beneath that
121 - Matilda
Richest man in the system? Baxter let out a haughty snort of joy. Awesome!! But he had barely begun to bask in that thrill when the environment suddenly changed.Damn! Not again. He cursed.A blinding light shot across his face. He raised his hands to shield his eyes. When he lowered them, he was no longer in the oceanic system.He was standing by the doorway of the house he had spent years trying to erase from his memory.Nothing had changed. Not the dusty brown curtains. Not the cracked floor tiles in the hallway. Not the faint, sour smell of cheap perfume and stale cigarettes that clung to the air like ghosts.It was like time had folded in on itself and dragged him ten years back.He was twenty-seven now, but the moment his foot crossed the threshold, he felt seventeen again. He felt powerless, trapped, angry and scared.This wasn’t just a house. It was a cage. A wound. He stared at the couch by the wall, the one with the torn cushion and burn mark no one ever bothered to fix. He
120 - Richest Man In The System
The Leviathan’s eyes burned like twin cores of molten pressure.[Abyss-Class: Nautilus Breaker – Lv. 15] Status: ENRAGEDTerritorial Instincts: Unstable Threat Level: MAXIMUM–BLOODLUST-KILL The ocean trembled as the pressure spiked. Baxter floated slowly to his feet on the seabed, still glowing faintly. His HUD flickered with new stats and system syncs stabilizing.[Baxter Holmes – Beast Lv. 14] Psionic Integration: 87% Core Vitals: Restored to 42% Skill Slots Expanded: +1 Bonus Slot Available Combat Power Surge: Active (Duration: 60s)His vision sharpened. He could feel the leviathan’s bloodlust. He wants to kill him and absorb his core but that wouldn't happen.“You're pissed?” Baxter spat blood and smirked. “Cry harder. Should’ve read the rules before gate-crashing my fight.”The leviathan responded with a roar that split the trench in two. Coral reefs shattered behind it. Its tail arched high.[Skill Activated: Abyss Spiral Crush]The water spun violently as the Leviathan
