[Personal Mission: Play the game, Who cares! I'm winning!]
"..."
Cryd didnt know what to say as he saw the mission, should he be happy that the system is encouraging him or to pity his players who will be destroyed by him.
It has been proven a thousand times already, information at the wrong hands is very dangerous, and this information is even given to the most dangerous person for the game.
Before he became a game developer, he was first a hardcore gamer, and hardcore gamers are known for their merciless gameplay.
Of course there are also cheaters in the game but they are not considered human beings anymore and the moment they cheat in competitive gameplay, they are lifeless people.
If there is something that a social community fears, its gaming community because their bottomline has long been dug deep after spending countless hours playing a game that makes them rationally insane.
But who cares about that? Since he now has a reason to play what is there to hesitate for, after giving yellow to wake him up if there is a customer.
Cryd entered the VR pod while cracking his neck, he is not cheating, he just has information, think of it as a walkthrough that guides him throughout the game.
Soon, Cryd entered the game and created himself a new account, his first is after all, has the admin controls which isn't very fair.
He created the same appearance of his first character then named himself, Bad Cryd, so he won't feel that much guilt.
Soon, Cryd entered the game and the moment he felt he was falling, he immediately somersaulted mid air and landed on his.
Avoiding his embarrassing fall in the ground that every new player experiences, Cryd then looked at the sky and saw it was already morning and his mission this time is to collect scraps while avoiding being caught by the guards.
Before Cryd started he first tried to adapt to his virtual body, after all, it was far weaker than his real body.
He stretched for a while and jumped around to measure his strength, soon, he got used to it.
Cryd then started the mission, he bent his body hiding among the pile of craps while looking like a hawk around the place.
He saw there were about 10 guards who were patrolling, and looking at their pattern, after watching for a while, Cryd was able to see the time they go around and where they usually stop for a while, they didn't really go that far from the main road which is a good thing.
Cryd would have been okay if he picked scraps far from the main road but the thing is, the scraps he was aiming for is at the most dangerous part of the scrap yard which is close to the guard house.
Yes, this game is high risk high reward gameplay, that's what makes games more exciting after all.
Cryd took a deep breath before slowly creeping towards the main road making sure he didn't get discovered.
He hasn't told anyone the penalty for being caught right? It's very simple, player will be jailed if caught and he won't be able to get any scraps, he will then be jailed for 3 days and after that, the player has to go to a new route which is to work his ass off to earn money and buy his own parts.
Which is a very difficult way and takes a lot of time, so for this game, players have to be smart and sneaky.
There's actually more routes such as going back to the scrap yard or being a thief and more and more, the only limit is your imagination.
Cryd waited until the 4th guard arrived and he knew the usual pattern of this guard after watching a while,which is to look at the far north which he always does when he is on patrol.
If you are wondering why he still has to watch the pattern of the guards is because he only created the world, not how the A.I thinks, it was done by the system simulation and each one of the A.I has their own pattern and sometimes even random.
Using this moment, Cryd immediately dashed towards the other side of the road of course, still silently doing that, he has about 10 seconds before the guard goes back to patrolling and by his estimate, the road is 3 meters wide so he had enough time.
Cryd dashed as fast as he could while carefully running because tripping is something he wanted to avoids the most, thankfully, he didn't.
Arriving at the other side, Cryd immediately dived towards the ground and crawled under a destroyed car, as soon as he got under, the guard just passed by, whistling as he looked around.
It didn't take long before the guard left which made Cryd sighed in relief, he could feel his adrenaline pumping just from that intense sneak.
After making sure no one was around, Cryd proceeded deeper, the Scrap yard has a total of 5 rings, the players spawned in, is the 5th ring, the place where garbage scraps are located while there are some rare ones, its few.
The 4th ring is where there are a lot of common scraps, fine ones, and there are also some rarer ones like excellent scraps, but Cryd isn't going to stop here.
He soon arrived at the road to the 3rd ring where the road is wider, and there are more guards around, I know it's illogical to have this many guards in a scrap yard but come on, it's a game.
What is a game without a challenge?
Cryd then observed the guards and found their surveillance is much stricter than the 5th ring, and after observing for a while, the guards are very strict, they even greet each other if they meet each other on the road, he finally found some hole among their guards.
The 1st guard seemed to be sleepy and didn't have that much alertness, Cryd smiled as he found this, a plan immediately brewed inside his brain.
He first started waiting for his target and layed low among the pile of scraps.
Soon, the 1st guard arrived looking very tired and has panda like eyes, Cryd moved out from his hiding position and walked towards the guard.
This was a very bold and risky way to move forward but Cryd still did it anyway, the moment they got close to each other Cryd raised his hands.
"Hey"
Cryd said with a deep voice.
"Hey~ Yawn~"
The guard sleepily greeted him, then they crossed paths and Cryd proceeded towards the 3rd ring.
Meanwhile, the guard continued moving forward without knowing what just happened. Soon, he met another guard.
"Hey"
The other guard greeted him.
""Hey~"
The first greeted back but immediately froze and he felt something was amiss, noticing this the other guard asked.
"What's wrong?"
This woke up the first guard but he just shook his head, he might be thinking too much because he is tired.
"Nothing~ man I want to go home immediately and sleep"
"..."
Cryd arrived at the 3rd ring and saw most of the scraps here are almost practically new, except for some dents and slashes that can be seen here and there.
The items here are excellent scrap and some are great scraps, there are also master scraps but they are hard to find.
But Cryd ignored all of this and proceeded towards the second ring, the road to the second ring was full of guards, and he found there were also some who brought dogs.
This made the way to the second ring very difficult, and even after observing them for a long time, Cryd didn't find any holes which made it seem like impossible.
But Cryd didn't give up, if there is no way through the guards then there is probably somewhere he can walk through, he started looking around and he was right, there is a way.
A huge bus was placed high on top of the scraps forming a bridge towards the second ring, but to go to the bus, he needed to some climbing and parkour, he also must be careful to avoid being caught by the guards.
Cryd observed the obstacles towards the bus and after some planning, he stretched his body and immediately started climbing.
There were a lot of cars he could use to climb up, and after doing some climbing, he made sure that the guard isn't facing him before making a jump towards the other car.
*Creak!
There was a sound, and immediately the guard who had his back turned immediately looked behind him, he looked around and saw nothing, he looked around for awhile but seeing no one, he continued.
Cryd came out from the inside of the car he jumped to and sighed in relief before he continued climbing.
Soon, Cryd arrived at the 2nd ring and most of the scraps here are practically brand new with little to no damage, most of the scraps are even made with rare materials.
Master scraps, some Grandmaster Scraps, but there were no sights of Legendary Rank.
Cryd is, of course, was not satisfied with these so he continued forward, and soon he arrived where the first ring was located.
It isn't open like other rings, it was fenced up and there was a jail-like building inside, there are many guards here and almost all of them have dogs with them and moved by pairs.
Seeing this, Cryd knew this will be the most difficult one ever yet.
