The Tower

As all these things were going on, John and others had already gone through the boom tubes and emerged from the other side. What welcomed them was a beach which had waves from the sea water. They could see the whole land stretching like a circle. The gravity was almost like Earth and it looked majestic.

There was a cool breeze hitting the faces of the members and everybody felt like they were on Earth. Only difference was the view. They all could see the blue Earth from their position. Even though everybody expected such scenes as all of them had played the game, playing on a television and watching in real life was different.

Even John was in awe as he never expected the Ring to be so beautiful with vivid weather properties. He could see forests, deserts and even snowy peaks from his position on the other sides of the ring. Everybody took a minute to digest such a huge achievement of technology in silence. They could never have imagined that such achievement could ever be possible and they would be able to witness them.

As they were thinking, a small cube shaped flying machine came towards them levitating in the air. It had small blue colored eye. It was the 343 Guilty Spark, the monitor of this Ring.

"Hello friends, how may I be of service?" it said.

"Are you sure you can control this AI?" Rhodes asked as they had seen what a rogue AI could do.

"Don't worry, after becoming Dr. Fate I have become more powerful and controlling such beings is easy." John lied but it was kind of the half truth as he really could control them but it was because of the system.

"That's good." Tony murmured as Ultron had given them a huge headache.

"Hello, 343. Is the Halo Ring working properly?" John replied to the monitor.

"Yes. It's perfectly fine. The whole weather and other functions are working on 100%. The people can easily relocate here but they will have to build their own home and buildings.`` The Guilty Spark.

"There are buildings built from before? Yes?" John asked.

"Yes. Please follow me if you want to check it out." 343 said. They all followed 343 and went to the structures that were built underground. It looked exactly like it did in the game. They all spent hours exploring the structures and even the landscapes. Victor, Tony and others flew away to check the whole ring while John chose the place where they first landed to play the Tower of Fate.

John directly summoned the Tower of Fate and placed it near the beach. The others who were nearby were surprised to see such a huge medieval looking tower appear after the wave of John. The tower looked ancient and even like a huge guard tower.

"Want to go inside and see my library?" John asked.

"Sure. Magic right? Would love to see." Clint said.

They all entered through through the huge gate placed in front of the tower. There was a huge hall with stairs on all the sides leading high up the tower with books being placed on the walls. The collections of books on the walls surprised everybody as there were so many books that they couldn't even see till the end.

Everybody got interested and all started going through the books as they wanted to see if they could do any kind of magic. Of course, doing magic requires talent and John didn't know any of them have such talent.

John in the meantime checked his fan values and it was rising rapidly. A fan value doesn't actually depend on the likes and dislikes of a character or a thing being extracted but on a person's beliefs and likes of John's movies, animes, cartoons and games.

Thus even though many people felt fear after seeing the ring, John's fan value rose as people got interested in the game and had started playing it to know more about the ring. John was happy to see the rise. He just lost 600 million and from the rise it looked like he would get 600 million fan values back soon.

The ring was massive and almost had the same diameter as the Earth and thus many people could see it clearly. The people still were either in awe or fear of the ring as they felt the Flood might be there.

After almost 12 hours of the ring's appearance, Umbrella finally came out and said that there was no Covenant or Flood in the Ring and it was perfectly safe as The Avengers had already gone and checked it. Umbrella also said that it would carry out rigorous tests on all the corners of the Ring to check for any infection.

The people were relieved when they came to know this and were happy that like always the Avengers went forward to check the danger instead of cowering away.
