3 System Is On!

Ding!

Not caring about the tightness in his pants because of this orgasmic sound, Bryan focussed on the text on his panel.

<System Initializing>

<Empire System Store Binding>

<Analysing Host attributes>

<Measuring Strength>

<Host Strength - non existent>

[Well, I have always considered myself to be more of a scholar.] Bryan tried to console himself.

<Measuring Intelligence>

<Host IQ - Too Low>

[You are fake news. My mom had me checked. I even have a scholarship.] Brain bragged.

Bryan had black lines on his forehead.

<Initializing...>

<Welcome to Empire Store>

A panel was visible inside in his mind.

There were different tabs. Main ones being Host, System Space, Security, Economy.

[It's like a civilization game. Nice.]

Bryan's eyes went down on a number at the top right corner.

Wealth - 500$

[So, I can buy stuff.]

[Fuck, this is too hard to make sense of. Why didn't I get my system loli to help me explain things.]

Bryan focussed on the space panel.

He felt like he was looking at a library shelf but with small squares of the same size. There were already different colored boxes placed in a few squares.

It felt to Bryan that he could hold the boxes with his hand. He got one.

He picked up the red box as it manifested into his hand out of nowhere.

[Haha, I was not hallucinating.]

It had suddenly come out as the corresponding information flooded into his head about the uses of this small red pill.

[Gene Enhancement Pill - L1. Activates the potential of genes and..] As information flooded into his head, he got aware of the importance of the red pill.

Red life was immortality to him and anyone if he desired.

[There's a drawback though. It makes me hornier. Every woman would throw themselves at me. This could end up being annoying.] The system was not perfect. Each reward had a drawback attached to it. Nothing was free.

[What should I do?] He had a hard choice to make here.

It did not even take a millisecond before Bryan swallowed the pill. He was read to bear the consequences to being hornier.

He just did not want to make the system resent himself by not taking the pill. Otherwise, Bryan would never trade his soul for immortality. Never.

He started to breathe heavily. He felt the pain which he had only felt after walking down the stairs on a leg day at the gym.

[Fuck! Why did the description say it's painful.]

He knew the pill description but it did not say extreme pain as his cells were beginning to change at the very basic level.

The red pill was bitter at first but the rewards would be great.

It was too good and this wasn't the complete information. He would become the perfect specimen of his species, at the very extreme limit of humans and this was just the elementary pill.

It took a few minutes before Bryan stopped sweating and stood back up.

He formed a punching action with his fingers to punch the air.

Pow!

[Did my hearing get better or the punch was this strong.] His guesses were both true. He had improved a little on the hearing side as well but it was mainly the strength and the speed of punching which led to the sound.

[This is just the level 1 pill.]

Bryan was excited at the idea of taking level two potion as he quickly closed his eyes to see if it was there.

There it was, he couldn't read the description but it was a massive red pill at the cost of 100 million USD.

Bryan instantly changed back to the system space to check other things.

He did not want the system to remind him of his paltry wealth.

Bryan looked at the different tabs for a minute.

Bryan focussed on the security tab.

[Woah!] Bryan was a little shocked to see the weapons in the security tab.

[I can even buy armoured vehicles.] Bryan thought after seeing the cars.

[I can just become a guns merchant.] He found another money making idea.

He then focussed on the economy tab.

Food, Tech, everything was represented, it was just the prices that discouraged Bryan.

Finally, he looked through the bots section and then the host section.

As he read the description, he came to know the types of bots. Worker bots for 100k and Intelligent bots started from 1 million. For every 5 worker bots, he needed to redeem an intelligent bot to command them to form small teams. He would even gain their skills when he redeemed one.

[Why do I feel like I am about to go to war.]

Finally, the host section.

[Genetic pills and SuperCondoms.. What?]

He looked through the list to be even more shocked.

[This mask item seems good if I want to change identities. There are ones for all races.]

[Why do I need to hide? What kind of host will I be? Who designed this system?] Brain had doubts about the empire system which put condoms next to the genetic pills.

He did not bother looking through more because of the prices and focussed back into the system space.

He grasped another ball and brought it out. It was a biological soldier, the very basic one with strength equalling his own. Nothing extreme like the angry green man.

Bryan got the basic information about the soldier. These were the biological bots who worked in factories and also served as militia.

[The newbie pack is awesome. The system does not seem abusive.]

He saw the ball turning into mist as a man appeared out of nowhere.

It would have been spooky to a normal person but for Bryan would have died once, it was just another day at office as he saw the man appearing. It was also less of a shock as the pill

The bot looked like a normal person, nothing beefy or ripped muscles. No one could guess that this thin man could pack a punch.

The soldier lifted his leg and arm to salute.

Bryan's chest grew a few inches after seeing what the bot did.

"Stand at ease." Bryan said from his decades of experience playing call of duty.

"Can you speak?" Bryan already knew the answer to this question as the information had flooded his head.

The worker bot could speak but very minimally. They had the basic skills to survive and could survive on food and water just like normal human beings but would never betray the host. Bryan was already thinking of the bot army in the future.

The drawback with the bot was that it would feel no pain. It could work even if his arm was blown off by a missile. The problem was the pain would be felt by Bryan. A small price to pay.

"Yes." He spoke.

Bryan nodded feeling satisfied. The bot seemed normal. He could mix in the crowd.

It could answer questions and blend into the crowd normally but was not much of a talker. He was the listening type, infact, all bots were meant to obey instead of leading.

They could even die, maybe not to the bullets but to explosions, it was definitely possible. Bryan was the same, it would be hard to kill him with just a few bullets.

[This is nice. I don't have to worry about school campus. No one will bring a rocket launcher to school.]

"I don't need you right now."

The bot turned back into a box which Bryan picked up and put back into his system space. All the items retrieved from the system space could be put back into the system space. This would be convenient when he unlocked the vehicles or weapons.

[This is the best way to conceal carry.] He thought like a true patriot.

[This is like christmas but for rich people. What's next?]
