Chapter 22 -Motor Race 2

Xela cant help observes other pairs around them. He can notice the intense pressure that almost all of them can feel in the game.

For Xela, the Desire Games is not what it seems. Life and death can be just a thin line for everybody.

But one thing is for sure. Most gamers that are survived until now are gamers that have a high survival rate in the desire games.

When the Desire Games just came into the world. The world was in chaos.

But now Xela can help shock that the human on earth adapts too fast and too well.

When survival was threaten the true nature of people can be triggered.

Xela can help stare at his husband. He never expects in his life that he just become the wife of someone.

Is he gay. But he just did not know about it.

Or the Desire Games is messing on his mind.

But one thing is for sure he needs to survive now. He can think more about this later to know about it.

"Done, Prepare Xela" Alex said as he finished designing the motorbike.

It looks normal motorbike compared to the other gamers designed.

"Ok, I'm ready," Xela said with a smile on his face.

"Ok good, let's wait for the timer. The plan is to drive fast the better. I made sure it was fast enough and have the durability to reach the finish line. We need to shorten our time" Alex said.

***

After the timer ends all the Gamers synchronize to start their motorbikes.

Broom! Broom!

The sound of engines that were waken roared in the starting line.

Xela can help stare at Alex that was driving the motorbike. And him as a passenger in a weird position. He can help think about how he met Alex.

Remember that Alex dont want to be called Xander. When Alex's family called him Xander at home. Xela found it funny.

And Xela found it odd to called Alex by Alex. Since his name as the man was Alex. it felt he was calling his name.

So Xela decided to call Alex Silver instead. Meanwhile, Alex already got used to calling Xela.

Alex speed up as much as possible he make sure that it was the speed that he can handle.

He can see the gift boxes. He knows there are a lot of Gamers who might try to collect Gift boxes.

So he decided to avoid them as much as possible.

He only focuses on defending and drive as fast as possible.

Xela can help to be nervous. He can't see properly what going around them.

But he can hear a lot of explosions.

Scream of Gamers asking for help.

Gamers fighting and killing each other.

Alex ignores the chaos around them. He tried his busy to drive fast but steady to win the race.

Even if Alex and Xela did not provoke or attack others.

The will be others who will attack them.

Tears are falling on Xela's eyes. Seeing Alex just was hit a skill for other Gamers.

It cause one of Alex's hands was exploded.

But it did not make Alex stop driving he endure it silently. He did not complain.

He drives steady and fast. The one who attacked them was shocked to see Alex survive.

"Silver" Xela can help called Alex name.

"Relax, I can heal my self you know," Alex said.

From time to time Xela also can get injured along the way. But he did not complain at all.

He knows that Alex was more injured than him.

He was the easiest to target for an attack compare to him.

It was lucky that Alex had healing skills.

It was not fast and instant some to others healing skill. It was a passive skill so it did not require too much mental strength and mana.

Ting! Ting!

"What the hell are this person. He just passively receive attacks from others" One of the Gamers saw Alex's conditions.

Alex's upper clothes were already burned in the dust. His body looks black as charcoal.

Others might not notice that Alex was healed his body.

For observant Gamers, they can notice that Alex has supreme self-healing but have no long-range attack so he can only receive the attack and has no option to attack others.

"Yeah! Silver Xander! You can heal right!? Do want an alliance with us?" Woman Gamer said as she drive her motorbike closer.

Alex looks towards the woman gamer who just called his attention. He was surprised to see two women.

"Sure that I what do you want," Alex said.

Xela cant help shocked that someone just approach them.

"I have long-range attacks but the more I use it. It injury my hands. I need you to heal my hands I will attack gamers that will attack us. Game?" Lipstick said.

"Touch me, If you need to be healed," Alex said without a look at Red Lipstick.

"His skill activate with touch before he can heal you" Xela explained since he notice that the Lipstick and her partner Red Notebook look confused.

"So that's why both of you already holding hands?" Red notebook ask she was the passenger.
