[Transporting Player to penalty zone]

[Transportation complete]

Dexter found himself in a fully equipped gym, everything was set and ready for him.

“Cool” Dexter walked around the gym examining everything, all the equipment was the same as what was in the modern world. He then removed his shirt waiting for the system to give him the task.

[Penalty tasks]

[Push-ups - 0/100]

[Squats - 0/100]

[Crunches - 0/100]

[jogging - 0/100km]

[Pull ups- 0/100]

[Players must complete the training before 24 hours in the Core time. Penalties - Player will remain in the core for ten years]

“All this is too much for a newbie, I have never done such training in the gym before.” Dexter complained, but there was no response, only a blue screen staring at him. If there was a way to escape all these impossible looking training Dexter would have done that. Even though the penalty was too risky, a penalty of a penalty task, staying ten years in that dark and lonely space would result in a brain tumor. He had to begin training as quickly as possible.

Dexter began the tasks as soon as possible, he was breathing heavily with each push up, he felt like his lungs would explode. Finally he collapsed on the ground panting.

“Am I done yet?”

[Penalty tasks]

Push ups - 22/100

Squats - 11/100

Pull ups - 0/100

Crunches - 33/100

jogging - 0/100km

[Time left - 13:54:23]

“What!!”

“I've spent eleven hours and I'm not even halfway done with the task! Guard!!!!”

‘Ava must be worried sick about me, I need to be done as soon as possible, I can do this’

Dexter got up, took a deep breath then continued with the push ups.

“No pain, no gain! No pain, no gain! No pain, no gain!” He said out loud as he continued with the training.

In no time he was eating it up, his body was quickly adapting to the changes and he felt even comfortable and normal with the training. Back at the academy he was the worst when it came to training in the gym, his highest was 10 push ups and he would close for the entire day.

Yes, he was that weak.

After the push ups he got on the Treadmill and began jogging. He jogged for an hour and moved on to the next exercise.

Ten hours later.

[Penalty tasks]

Push ups - 100/100

Squats - 100/100

Pull ups - 100/100

Crunches - 100/100

jogging - 100/100km

[Time left - 03:23:01]

He was done with all the tasks.

“I'm done, can I go home now?”

He was sweating and his breathing was still rapid.

[Congratulations, player cleared the Penalty task]

[Player had successful passes the trial course]

[System bonus had been granted]

“Hmph, trial course?”

[Player would now begin mission]

Theme of this level, ‘Solo survival’

Talent - 1 (Lightening)

Stats- 20+2

Skills - 2( Lightening Step, Raging thunder)

“A mission? I thought I was going to get back home? What's all these”

[Player will be transported to level 1 mission]

[Player must choose difficult level]

[Easy. Normal. Hard]

‘I also have to choose my difficult level. Hmm. Choosing easy would make me be done with the mission as soon as possible and get back home’

Dexter thought about stretching his finger to press the Easy button, but then he hesitated.

‘Come to think of it, this system seems to reward me with every task I complete. That only means the Hard level would come with more rewards. Time here moves faster than earth, so why the hurry, it'll be double reward if I complete the mission gaining rewards and get back home even stronger’

He then proceeded and pressed the hard button.

[Player must be informed that he can no longer change the difficulty level throughout the entire mission course]

“I accept”

[Difficult level selected successfully]

[You may begin level 1 mission]

Suddenly a purple portal appeared.

[Gate to Level one opened]

Dexter took a deep breath then casually walked into the portal and it disappeared behind him.

“A desert?” He looked at the environment and it was a very large and hot desert.

[You have successfully entered level 1 mission, Conditions resulting in failure include: unable to complete the mission within the time duration and being killed by the monster.]

[Penalty for level failure: Death]

[Theme of level: Solo survival. You must survive within the time duration against the grade C monster, or kill it.]

[Time left: 00:10:00]

“What, a death penalty? Ten minutes survival time frame against a grade C monster?” Sweat traveled down his forehead.

“Grrr!” A loud rumbling roar echoed throughout the desert as a large monstrous figure was materializing from the sand.

Dexter watched in horror as he saw the 20 foot monster in front of him.

“A giant sand golem!?” His heart raced.

Golems are Monsters with a physically enhanced physiology. A golem is capable of easily overpowering a regular human, and is strong enough to rip or crush a human head from its body. And they are unaffected by weapons.

“Run!” Dexter dashed out of the reach of the golem, but the golem was catching up pretty fast. Not because it has a good speed, but due to the fact that it was super large and its single step covered a wide distance.

The golem slammed his palm on the desert aiming to crush Dexter, but he slid away. But then noticed there was a sand wave approaching his way, caused by the impact of the golem's might.

“Ahh!” Dexter was running and hopping at the same time, he panted and was sweating praying the time runs out quickly.

“Am I done yet!”

[Time left: 00:08:21]

“Eight more minutes?! How am I going to survive that long, without even a weapon? Oh God I now regretted choosing the hard option, I thought it would be easier. Ahhh!”

Dexter was gassing out, his lungs were straining and his legs couldn't keep up, the sand was slowing his pace giving an edge to the golem.

“Grrah!” The golem finally grabbed hold of Dexter, lifting him up as he crushed him slowly.

“Rraahhh!!” Dexter screamed in pain, he could hear the loud bone cracks from his own body, he was bleeding from his mouth and nostrils, his eyes were becoming blurry, he was going to pass out.

[Time left: 00:05:43]

‘I have five minutes left, I can't lose just yet. I've always wanted an opportunity to grow stronger and this system has granted me that. I can't fail it. I need to survive for my sister, I can't let her suffer in this cruel world alone’

“I AM NOT GIVING UP!!”

“ARGH!!”

  • THE END

    I stood at the edge of what remained of the battlefield, staring at the ruins of the universe I had fought to save. The stars were slowly beginning to reappear in the dark void, like candles relighting after a storm. My body ached in ways I couldn’t describe, every muscle screaming in protest after the battle with the Abyssal Sovereign.But I was alive.For the first time in what felt like an eternity, I allowed myself to breathe. The weight of the universe—the literal universe—was no longer crushing me. Still, the victory felt hollow as I looked around at the destruction left behind. Planets had been reduced to dust. Civilizations, wiped out in the blink of an eye.It was up to me now. The system’s voice echoed faintly in my mind, its presence weaker but still there."Rebuilding Protocol Activated. Universal Restoration Initiated."I didn’t ask questions. There was no time for questions. With what remained of my energy, I focused, drawing on the fragments of the Sovereign’s power tha

    Dexter tumbled through the void, his senses overwhelmed by the sensation of freefall. Darkness engulfed him until, with a bone-jarring impact, he landed on an obsidian platform. He groaned, pushing himself to his feet, only to find himself in an enormous chamber illuminated by swirling energy—red, black, and violet hues pulsated like a heartbeat.At the center of the room stood The Architect, their mask now removed to reveal an unnervingly calm face. Their eyes burned with a malevolent light as they addressed Dexter.“You’ve impressed me, Dexter. Few have made it this far. But you’ve only scratched the surface of my designs.”Dexter tightened his fists. “Enough talk. This ends now.”The Architect smiled, their demeanor unsettlingly serene. “Oh, it will end. But not in the way you think. You’ve been a mere pawn in this game, and it’s time to introduce the king.”The chamber shook violently. The swirling energy began to coalesce into a single, blinding point above them. Dexter shielded

    The helicopter ride was a brief reprieve from the chaos they had just escaped, but the tension in the air was palpable. Lila worked furiously on her tablet, attempting to decrypt the data drive, while Marcus cleaned and inspected his weapons. Dexter sat in silence, his fists still clenched, staring out at the dark expanse below.“Anything?” Marcus asked Lila, breaking the heavy silence.“It’s encrypted six ways to Sunday,” Lila replied, her voice taut with frustration. “Whoever set this up didn’t want it cracked.”Dexter’s voice was calm but firm. “We’ve faced worse. Keep at it.”Lila nodded, determination etched on her face. “I’ll need time, but I’ll get it.”The helicopter touched down at a safehouse several miles from the smoldering remains of the Blackwell compound. It was a nondescript building, tucked away in a dense forest and surrounded by state-of-the-art security measures. As they entered, the weight of their mission pressed heavily on them.Inside, the safehouse was surpris

    The team sprinted through the collapsing compound, the air thick with smoke and the deafening roar of explosions. Alarms blared, and the ground beneath their feet trembled with each detonation. The Architect's forces weren't just retreating—they were ensuring the base was destroyed, leaving no evidence behind.Dexter led the charge, his enhanced reflexes allowing him to dodge falling debris and navigate through the chaos. Behind him, Marcus kept pace, covering their rear with precision shots that took down pursuing guards. Lila and the rest of the team followed closely, their expressions a mix of urgency and determination.“Extraction point is two clicks east,” Lila shouted over the noise, her voice crackling in Dexter's earpiece. “But we’ve got a problem. Drones are back online, and they’re swarming the area.”Dexter gritted his teeth. “Then we take them out. Keep moving!”As they emerged from the main structure into the open, the sight that greeted them was grim. A fleet of aerial d

    The sun was still low on the horizon when the team arrived at the edge of the target area, hidden by a dense line of trees overlooking the sprawling fortress. Blackwell’s main base was far more fortified than anticipated. Towering concrete walls surrounded the compound, with razor wire coiled along the top and watchtowers armed with automated turrets and spotlights that swept the area in precise intervals. Beyond the walls, armed guards patrolled in squads, each equipped with cutting-edge gear.Dexter crouched behind a cluster of shrubs, his sharp eyes scanning the compound. Lila's voice crackled in his earpiece. “Thermal imaging confirms over a hundred hostiles inside, with reinforcements stationed in nearby barracks. The Architect has upped the ante. There’s heavy artillery on the north and west sides, and drones patrolling the airspace.”Marcus, crouched beside him, muttered, “This isn’t a base—it’s a fortress. They’re expecting us.”Dexter’s lips curved into a grim smile. “Let the

  • Chapter 630

    The cold night air clung to the dense forest as Dexter and his team made their retreat from the captured facility. Their convoy was waiting at a safe distance, hidden under the cover of thick trees and underbrush. Inside the SUVs, the tension was palpable. Kane and his accomplice were restrained, their wrists bound tightly with reinforced cuffs, their mouths gagged to prevent any further attempts at manipulation.Marcus sat beside Dexter in the lead vehicle, his brows furrowed in thought. “The Architect… If Kane’s not bluffing, this changes everything. They’ve already infiltrated deep enough to create chaos on multiple fronts. It’s not just about us anymore.”Dexter leaned back in his seat, his mind racing. “We’ll analyze the data we pulled from the servers. Somewhere in there is a thread we can follow. The Architect made one mistake—they’ve revealed themselves. Now it’s just a matter of time.”Marcus nodded, but his unease lingered. The Architect’s reputation was whispered in dark co
