Prophet (3)

A group of 43 people were gathered inside the building that Eve had went inside in. Young men, old women, children, and many other people from different ages were gathered inside. Yet one thing they all had in common was that they all had nervous and terrified expressions.

Such a strange situation left them in fear. After all, the could not understand what was happening. And the fear of the unknown was the human kind's strongest and oldest fear.

Under the fearful event, Eve was left speechless and was under deep thought. She grabbed the book from her bag and was about to open it when a decaying voice whispered in her ear.

"Four people.... " the voice said. Suddenly, flashes of images invaded Eve's mind. It was the scene of people killing each other for greed appeared. The screaming of women, the crying of children, and the painful noises of the old and young could be heard in her mind.

Eve shivered. "What..?" She wanted to process what had just happened, but a sudden notification popped up for everyone.

[Main Scenario #1 : The First Tragedy (Replay)

"Replay the first tragedy of human kind. Betrayal! Greed! Fear!"

Activity : There are currently four antidotes in the building. After two minutes, poison will begin to seep inside the building. And every 20 seconds, the poison will become stranger and stronger.

Reward : 100 coins

Penalty : ? ]

Eve looked at the notification in fear, but she immediately calmed herself down. She focused on the message of "four antidotes" and immediately related it to the voice she heard inside of her head awhile ago.

She made a guess that the voice in her head predicted this event. Instead of panicking, she began to assess the situation. From the images she saw in her mind earlier ; the word "antidotes" didn't actually mean vials or potions that would help them resist poison. Instead it referred to specific rooms in the building.

According to the images she saw in her head, one the antidote rooms was the female's bathroom on the 4th floor. Without hesitation she ran up the building while everyone was panicking.

A woman with short blond hair noticed her sudden movements and thought to herself. "Where is she going?" She thought as she curiously followed.

Before going to the bathroom om the 4th floor, Eve first went into the storage room that was on the back of the 2nd floor. She had noticed that someone was following her, hence she decided to grab something to protect her first.

The development of this world didn't seem to abide to kindness, and she had to prepare herself for the worst.

She had to get back to Ivaim to make sure he was safe.

She didn't want to think about how coincidental it was for Ivaim's book to be closely related to the developments in the present.

All she wanted was for Ivaim to be safe.

She grabbed a chain that was used to long doors, and also proceeded to grab a crowbar before rushing up to the fourth floor.

[You are now in the zone of an antidote.

Capacity limit : 1/1]

It seems that only one person could fit an antidote room.

Before the woman that was following Eve could enter the bathroom, Even immediately used the chains the seal the door and prevent anyone from coming in. She held the crowbar in her hands and prepared for the worst.

She was determined to survive.

(Author's note:

I noticed that the chapters were too fast paced. I will now be adjusting my writing style so that I can develop my characters even further to flesh them out. Hopefully it doesn't affect how you enjoy the novel.)
