Shes just a girl that’s only known one thing and it’s kept her alive this far but she isn’t living in the same world we do, in fact she hasn’t for a very long time

Ketika Profesor Jin meminta semua orang untuk mencari Lin Huang di pulau itu, Lin Huang telah terjun ke bawah tanah setelah mengubah dirinya menjadi hantu. Ketika dia pergi lebih dalam, dia menemukan bahwa bagian tengah pulau itu kosong. Ada banyak monster dari varietas berbeda yang bersembunyi di bawah tanah. Yang mengejutkannya, ada pintu masuk mengarah ke tanah.
"Jadi, monster yang menyerang kita dibebaskan dari sini." Lin Huang tidak bisa mencari tahu di mana monster itu berasal sebelumnya, tapi dia punya jawabannya sekarang. Di pulau berongga adalah ruang besar dengan banyak monster berbeda. Ada juga beberapa staf berjas putih yang bekerja di sana. Lin Huang awalnya ingin segera pergi, namun dia tidak tahan untuk mengambil beberapa foto saat dia berjalan di sekitar pulau di dalam dinding.
"Semua staf mengenakan jas putih. Tak satupun dari mereka mengenakan seragam Gagak Ungu. Apakah mereka bukan dari Gagak Ungu?" Setelah penjelajahan singkat, Lin Huang mulai curiga bahwa itu bukanlah pangkalan Gagak Ungu karena dia tidak dapat menemukan logo organisasi itu di sana. Biasanya, bahkan para staf laboratorium harus memiliki logo Gagak Ungu terpampang di jas putih mereka. Namun, Lin Huang tidak bisa menemukan tanda logo di pakaian mereka. Mereka lebih mirip dokter di rumah sakit biasa.
Namun, mempertimbangkan situasinya saat ini, Lin Huang tidak memikirkannya sambil dia mulai menyelam lebih dalam.
Ada banyak lantai di bawah pangkalan di pulau ini. Ada monster dari berbagai jenis di lantai yang berbeda, dan Lin Huang merasa pusing melihat semua monster.
"Ada monster tingkat sakti abadi 8 dan bahkan peringkat 9 di sini." Semakin dalam lantai, semakin kuat monster yang ditangkap. Pupil Lin Huang sedikit melebar ketika dia melihat ratusan monster tingkat sakti abadi dan 9.
Jika beberapa manusia tingkat sakti kekaisaran mengendalikan para monster kuat ini, mereka bisa menghancurkan pos pijakan kelas A dengan mudah. Monster-monster ini mungkin tidak dilatih oleh organisasi biasa.
"Benarkah bukan Gagak Ungu?" Lin Huang berpikir hanya segelintir organisasi bawah tanah terkemuka yang mampu melakukan hal ini. Jika itu bukan Gagak Ungu, itu pasti organisasi top lain yang sama kuatnya dengan Gagak Ungu.
Lin Huang tidak tinggal lebih lama lagi setelah mengambil beberapa gambar. Semakin dia melihat apa yang ada di organisasi, semakin dia berpikir dia harus pergi. Saat dia terjun ke dasar pulau, dia memasuki lautan sebagai hantu. Ketika dia bersiap untuk memanggil pusaka dimensinya, Lin Huang melihat cahaya di bawah laut. Dia ragu-ragu dan menyerah pada rasa penasarannya, berenang menuju cahaya. Karena dia dalam bentuk hantu, dia tidak perlu mengkhawatirkan tekanan air atau kesulitan bernafas. Dia segera menyelam ratusan meter lebih dalam di mana cahaya semakin terang.
"Ini adalah ... pusatnya?!" Saat dia menyelam 4.000 meter ke bawah, Lin Huang akhirnya melihat sumber cahaya. Itu adalah pangkalan bawah tanah yang ditutupi dengan lapisan pertahanan transparan yang mengisolasinya dari laut. Melihat gelembung, Lin Huang bisa mengatakan bahwa kuncian pulau sebelumnya telah diatur oleh orang-orang dari pangkalan ini. Dia tidak mendekat saat mengunci pandangannya pada bagian atas pangkalan. Ada logo aneh di atasnya yang tampak seperti pisau meja yang dimiringkan membentuk lingkaran.
"Pisau meja? Organisasi mana ini?" Lin Huang tidak bisa mengingat organisasi bawah tanah dengan logo seperti itu. Ketika dia berada di barak pelatihan Gagak Ungu, dia telah mempelajari sebagian besar logo organisasi di Divisi7, tetapi dia tidak ingat ada di antara mereka yang menggunakan pisau meja sebagai logo. Dia mengambil beberapa foto tetapi tidak mendekat. Meskipun dia dalam bentuk hantu sekarang, dia tidak bisa masuk ke pangkalan karena ada lapisan pertahanan di sekitarnya. Dia memutuskan untuk pergi secepat mungkin setelah memotret. Setelah dia agak jauh dari pulau itu, Lin Huang memanggil pusaka dimensinya di lautan dan pergi.
….
Di ruang kontrol di bawah laut, sekelompok staf bekerja keras. Profesor Jin yang berambut perak tampak kesal karena Lin Huang tidak ditemukan di pulau itu.
"Profesor, kami sudah mencari di seluruh pulau, tetapi kami tidak dapat menemukannya. Satu-satunya kemungkinan adalah ia telah melarikan diri," kata pria paruh baya di sebelahnya.
"Bagaimana itu mungkin? Bukankah pulau itu terkunci? Ke mana dia bisa lari?" Profesor Jin tidak bisa menerima kenyataan itu.
"Tidak sulit baginya untuk melarikan diri jika dia memiliki pusaka melarikan diri tertinggi bersamanya untuk membebaskan diri dari kuncian," pria itu menjelaskan dengan lembut.
"Selain pusaka, jika dia memiliki keahlian beratribut tanah atau keahlian menembus, dia bisa melarikan diri dari bawah tanah. Pulau itu terlalu besar. Pengaturan kuncian terutama berfokus pada bagian atas pulau, dan tidak termasuk bawah tanah."
"Sudah lebih dari setengah jam sekarang. Tidak peduli apa yang dia gunakan, sudah cukup baginya untuk mengaktifkan pusaka dimensi untuk melarikan diri," pria itu berspekulasi dengan ekspresi tak berdaya.
"Kalian semua tidak berguna!" Profesor Jin tampaknya menyadari perkataan orang itu benar dan menjadi marah.
"Jika hal seperti ini terjadi lagi, kalian harus bersiap untuk diberi makan kepada para monster."
Para staf di ruang kontrol berkeringat dingin di punggung mereka.
"Kalian punya 24 jam untuk mencari tahu siapa sebenarnya bocah ini!" Profesor Kin keluar dari ruang kontrol setelah berteriak.
....
Setelah melarikan diri dari laut, Lin Huang kembali ke asrama Akademi Bela Diri Pemburu. Dia tidak punya waktu untuk mengejar ketinggalan dalam beberapa hari terakhir karena dia langsung menelepon Tuan Fu.
Sambil dia menjelaskan apa yang terjadi pada Tuan Fu, dia mengirim foto-foto yang dia ambil di pulau.
"Tuan, organisasi mana yang memiliki logo pisau meja ini?" Lin Huang bisa tahu dari ekspresi Tuan Fu jika dia mengenal organisasi itu.
"Pisau meja apa?! Itu pisau bedah!" Tuan Fu terkekeh sebelum menjelaskan.
"Organisasi ini bernama Lokakarya Scarborough, atau setidaknya itulah yang disebut 200 tahun yang lalu. Aku tidak yakin apa namanya sekarang. Pendiri organisasi ini adalah pria tua yang gila. Dia sangat kuat dan merupakan salah satu lawan tertuaku. Aku dulu memukulinya dengan parah. Aku kira dia sudah meninggal sekarang, tapi sepertinya dia masih hidup."
"Maksudmu Profesor Jin?" Lin Huang bertanya.
"Tidak, Profesor Jin adalah muridnya. Dia dulu memiliki dua murid. Aku membunuh yang pertama, dan Profesor Jin adalah yang kedua. Aku tidak yakin apakah dia punya murid baru sekarang," kata Tuan Fu seperti tidak peduli.
"Aku tidak peduli apa yang mereka lakukan, tetapi mereka tidak akan pernah berani menyentuhmu, jadi tidak ada yang perlu dikhawatirkan. Terutama Profesor Jin, dia akan senang bahwa dia tidak melakukan apapun padamu ketika dia tahu siapa kamu."
….
"Tuan ... murid Tuan Fu ...." Melihat detail Lin Huang di layar, Profesor Jin menjadi pucat, dan jantungnya berdetak kencang. Pria paruh baya itu tidak menyadari reaksinya sementara dia terus melihat ke layar.
"Bocah Lin Huang ini bekerja di Akademi Bela Diri Pemburu. Haruskah aku meminta seseorang untuk membawanya kembali?"
"Ini adalah akhirnya. Tidak ada yang boleh menyentuh Lin Huang ini!" Profesor Jin bahkan lebih kesal setelah mendengar pria itu menyarankan dan berteriak.
"Tapi bukankah kamu mengatakan." Pria itu tidak bisa memahami reaksi Profesor Jin.
"Aku tidak peduli apa yang aku katakan sebelumnya. Semuanya sebelumnya tidak penting sekarang! Yang paling penting adalah kamu harus ingat apa yang aku katakan sekarang. Lin Huang tidak pernah ke sini, dan kita tidak pernah memiliki konflik dengannya!" Profesor Jin memandang dengan serius ke seberang ruangan.
Semua staf mengangguk segera sambil mengingat nama Lin Huang. Mereka tidak bisa mengerti bagaimana anak itu bisa membuat Profesor Jin begitu ketakutan.
Profesor Jin langsung menuju ke kamar mandi setelah meninggalkan ruang kontrol. Dia terengah-engah sambil dia bersandar ke pintu kamar mandi setelah menguncinya. Dia tersadar setelah beberapa saat dan membasuh wajahnya. Dia hampir membasahi celananya ketika dia melihat foto Tuan Fu dengan wajah yang tampak baik di layar. Dia masih ingat betapa menakutkannya Tuan Fu.

"There's someone to the right, three 0' clock," Saya whispered in Rekka's ear ahead of Silas. She nodded and, following Saya's lead, the two ducked around a mechanical trash and recycle bin, dodging underneath stray wires and pipes. A dim blue light emanated from around the corner, and as the four nimbly made their way around the darkness, a lone voxen girl came into view. She was dressed in sharp black clothes and held her hand groggily against her cheek as she leaned to the side on a bench around a pole. She flicked absentmindedly through the screens on her projector, distracted and unaware at the four kids slipping by her.
Silas' heart pounded loud in his chest as they slunk like snakes around her. He was almost certain she could hear it – let alone his companions. Adrenaline fired through his veins and made him limbs shaky and restless. He could barely see in front of him. Given his luck, he would kick against a stray bottle or step on a wire on the floor with a loud crunch. He prayed to a distant being he couldn't remember to prevent that from happening.
Thankfully, that distant being must have answered his prayers, because everyone made it past the lone voxen worker undetected. They rounded the corner as the flickering light of the projector screen faded into the distance behind a sleek and unfeeling blue wall.
Suddenly, Saya jumped as she noticed a presence coming towards them.
"Hide!" She whispered, and they immediately sought the closest refuge against the sudden blinding white light that turned the next corner. Silas was a little slow and the patrolling monster caught a glimpse of his messy brown hair disappearing behind a trash can.
The monster was a short girl with humanlike features – save the large protruding bat ears that stuck out like a deer's antlers. She looked like an older version of Wicke – a kyro, a bat monster. She chewed absentmindedly on a snack in her mouth, crunching the wrapper conspicuously. Silas startled as the trash can's lid opened. He ducked even further as the lid swung open to the side and barely nicked his hair. The kyro girl paid no attention and hastily tossed the wrapper in the trash as the lid swung back and she continued using her projector to guide her way back to her dormitory. She walked behind them – and if she had turned around at that very moment she would see the backs of four very frightened and tense individuals. Sheer dumb luck prevented her from doing so as she rounded the corner. Silas heaved a sigh of relief as she heard two young female voices sound from around the bend. The two monsters had encountered each other and started a late night conversation.
"That was way too close," Macy said, her voice panicked.
"If we're going to find Charybdis' office, it's going to be cause we were lucky," Silas breathed.
Silas and Saya both rose up from their hiding places slowly as if they had been pressed to the floor by a giant weight. Macy and Rekka did the same.
"I see now why you only wanted us four," Saya admitted.
Rekka looked around before turning towards the group, motioning for them to gather close to her.
"We're almost approaching Charybdis' office. Be prepared for a confrontation if needed. We can't mess this one up," Rekka said with a slight quaver in her voice. No doubt she was reminiscing about the two major mistakes she had already made that had got them into this whole mess. Silas nodded diligently and vigorously, to tell himself that he was ready, even if he wasn't.
Rekka guided them from the larger hallway of the concourse down a very dark corridor bathed in shadows. The walls were geometric and organic, polygonal shapes protruding from the walls. A distant mechanical humming emanated from someone unseen, vibrating throughout the air and churning it, bringing it to life. There was a lone door to the left as they approached, and as they ventured forth from the concourse, they felt the walls close in on them as if they were the jaws of a giant mechanical beast swallowing them whole. A sharp but barely audible crackling could be heard from the door, and as Rekka approached, a small holographic panel appeared by the side.
It read, "Charybdis, Master of Information," and doused the four in luminescent blue-green light, illuminating several meandering dust particles twinkling in the air like roaming stars.
"We found it," Macy breathed.
"Let's pray there's no authentication requirement," Rekka said, suddenly realizing that if that were the case, their whole operation was over.
Thankfully, Rekka pressed her palm on the door, blue light emerging from it as the door read her mana. It opened for her, a metallic clink sounding before the door split, its sides drawing back into the wall. A gentle breeze of warm comfortable air swept out of the room, as well as yellow, soft light. They stepped in.
Charybdis' room was modest and small. A burgundy carpet adorned with golden patterns caressed their feet underneath them, a welcome haven from the unrelenting dark tiles. As they came in, several tan and brown plush chairs lined the entry wall. There were two small tables near them, draped in ornate circular white lace tablecloths. Draconic design coasters lay in pairs underneath several dark drinks, still steaming hot.
At the opposite end of the room lay a wood desk covered in all sorts of miscellaneous items: papers, books, badges, etc. At the front was a curved lamp that was the source of the beckoning yellow light. A sleek black and grey laptop sat perfectly in the middle of the desk, its logo that faced the party glowing frost blue. Several assorted books of dusty blue and red colors lay stacked on both sides of the desk. Coffee mugs were placed like castle turrets around the skyscrapers of books. Everything was organized in an orderly fashion, perfectly aligned and well-placed, yet chaotically assorted, like a microcosm of Lachlan itself.
A tall bookcase decorated with floral designs etched into the wood stood sentinel. It guarded behind glass mysterious relics and artifacts of exotic designs and shapes, some of which seemed to pulsate. Along the wall were posters of various women in scientific gear, many of which had obvious anthropomorphic features. There was a calendar and a small blackboard covered in sticky notes in all sorts of colors that clothed the plaster behind it like a tree's bark. A few holographic images swam around the room like fish in a fish tank, Silas spotted one as it passed by his head and saw a smiling Charybdis next to an unsmiling Redd. Charybdis had her arm wrapped around the wolf girl's shoulder, which she was trying to shrug off halfheartedly.
Silas saw another curious image float by him – a mugshot of a middle-aged individual with messy brown hair not unlike Silas'. He was dressed in lab attire and looked thoroughly worn down and dismayed. From his head alone, Silas could spot no monster-like features. As far as he knew, he was another human, and that piqued Silas' interest. But before he could study the man's face more, the image floated away and disappeared into pixelated dust that ebbed into nothing.
Rekka was drawn immediately to Charybdis' laptop. Of course, she resisted the temptation to tamper with it, as the dragon woman might notice if any of the holographic screens it projected were moved, but she captured a copy of the projection with a camera feature on her own projector. Silas heard a small click as Rekka took the photo, and saw her holographic camera window minimize, retreating into the bracelet on her arm.
"Get looking, quickly! Each of you take a corner of the room. Look for anything suspicious or out of place."
Silas took his corner of the room, fiddling with the plush chair delicately in hopes of finding some secret mechanism or whatnot that would open up a marvelous magical pathway to freedom.
Still, he couldn't shake the fact that something was terribly wrong – despite the cozy atmosphere, he knew that someone – Charybdis or someone else – was bound to burst through the door at this very moment.

Eight young humans are forced to survive in a world where humans are hunted and killed. Dragon ladies with electrical whips, pyromaniac insect sisters, cowboy foxes and other monsters clamor to get their hands on these humans. Join Silas Sylvannister and his companions as they struggle to preserve humanity, with all of its faults and grievances.

Updates Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

After arriving at the home, we immediately prepare ingredients for lunch. Since it's already lunch time, I will make another easy and fast to serve the dish. I already make some rice in the rice cooker before we left home to the Department of Industry and Trade, I only need to prepare some dish to accompany the rice. My choice goes to a dish called Honey Mustard Pork Chops, and to make that dish s quite simple. All I need is :
 1/4 cup honey,  2 tablespoons prepared yellow mustard,  1 tablespoon butter, Garlic powder for taste,  1 1/2 pounds center-cut boneless pork chops - 1/2-inch thick
The process to cook this also not too complicated, and within 30 minutes it's all done.
Mix honey and mustard together in a bowl until thoroughly combined.
Heat butter in a skillet over medium-high heat and lay pork chops into the hot butter. Sprinkle chops with half the garlic powder and cook until browned, about 3 minutes. Turn chops over, sprinkle with remaining garlic powder, and pan-fry chops for 3 more minutes.
Brush honey mustard sauce over chops, turn them over, and cook for 5 minutes; turn chops onto other side and brush with honey mustard sauce. Cook until chops are no longer pink inside and an instant-read meat, about 5 more minutes.
Ming Er comes to the kitchen with her camera, and start to take pictures before we eat.
"Hubby, what is this dish called?"
"Honey Mustard Pork Chop. I make it special for you, there's sweet flavor from honey and sour flavor from mustard"
"Um, hubby really knows what I'm like. Let's eat hubby, I'm already hungry"
"Yes, here's your bowl wifey, eat until you full for our baby too"
Ming Er smiles sweetly when hearing the words 'our baby', she timidly accepts the bowl and eats it neatly. After one bowl emptied, she handed her bowl for another serving
"Hubby, one more, please. This pork chop is too delicious, the sweetness from the honey and sourness from mustard can mix elegantly with the crispiness of the pork meat"
"Sure, here's the second serving"
Watch my wife eat so happily make my heart also feel happy. There's no more happiness to see someone you love so much look happy, especially when she eats something that you made for her.
When the lunch is over, we wash the dishes together and after that Ming Er returns to her laptop. She wants to make some logo design for our business and will be painted in our food truck too. After working on her laptop for some time, she calls me for my opinion for the logo
"Hubby, take a look for these logos, which one do you like?"
She turns her laptop and shows me several images on the screen. They are the good logo and I having trouble which one is suitable and good for our business. Finally, I make up my mind on a logo that resembles a child but having wings on his back carrying fork and spoon in his hand.
"Wifey, they all good make me hard to decide, but I choose this one, little child with the wings, it looks cute"
"That's Cupid, hubby"
"Cupid? What is that?"
"A deity in Roman mythology who delivers love for a couple. In this logo, I want to give the message that we give our love in our cooking"
"Good meaning. I like that logo"
"Um, I also think hubby will like this one too"
I kiss her forehead as a token of appreciation for her work.
"Wifey, for this afternoon agenda, where will we check our baby? We go to the clinic or hospital?"
"How about Guanghan Maternity & Children Health Hospital, hubby? It's a big hospital and I think we can get information about how to keep our baby safe and healthy during pregnancy.
"Okay, let's go there when the day is not too hot later"
"Um, I also want to send this logo to my brother. He will give to the workshop that working our food truck to paint it on the truck walls"
"Okay, I also prepare something for dinner later"
So, we busy with our own job. My wife busy with the business thing while I'm preparing something to cook for dinner.

Story wrote in the slow pace if you can't wait, sorry, this is my way of writing.

It took a few dozen of minutes for Keith to completely fill up all the tanks of his space shuttle. The whole structure was around a hundred feet in size and it held three large tanks supplying its main engines as well as four more reserved for the side engines. It also somewhat resembled a plane, or a spacecraft of some sort.
The reason behind such an appearance was actually efficiency. Since it could not fit onto the head of a rocket because its length, Keith has had to build an aerodynamic structure so the movements of its launcher would not be hindered too much.
'I should also be giving it a name in the future. I'll think about it once I successfully reach the Moon though.' Keith decided.
While the tanks were filling up thanks to a pump, Keith went back inside his station using the decompression chamber and rummaged around his storage. He had a few more objects to retrieve before actually going to the Moon and make this journey worthwhile.
Indecisive on which flag to take with him, he actually postponed this deadline until the last moment. The conquest of the Moon would certainly not be accepted until one actually put down their own flag on its surface. However, Keith hesitated between showing off the flag of his country or making his own.
He knew the Starise group already invented their own logo. Each city also had their own flag, and it would not last long until each continent possessed theirs too.
In the end, he quickly made up a name and a logo for his group, albeit alone for now, and using some dyes he brought up there to make a flag during the few following hours.
The Starise's logo was made up with a rocket onto a background showing off a star seen from up close. Because of this, he decided that his flag should showcase the shape of his space shuttle and a giant futuristic space station on its background to exhibit his future plans.
WIth that being done, Keith embarked onto his shuttle with his flag and a few other objects before activating the engines.
He checked whether the fuel tanks were indeed filled to the brink and proceeded to test the shuttle's behaviour with this much weight.
'I should be good to go.' He realized after a few minutes of inspection. 'Let's conquer that Moon!'
_______________
- "We can easily do it!" Eric exclaimed while motivating his fellow members of the Starise group. They had just come back to their base after a successful launch towards the Moon. This flight went flawlessly regarding the fact that it was their first time actually trying to reach the Moon.
They came into orbit of the Earth at around four hundred miles of altitude before flinging their trajectory towards the Moon thanks to a calculated acceleration. However, they used up almost every bit of fuel left in their rocket to only exceed fifty thousands miles of distance away from the Earth. It was not even a quarter of the distance separating them from the Moon, but they were really happy nonetheless.
In the end, they have had to kill themselves by igniting the whole rocket. Obviously, before doing so Eric said farewell to his chat and turned off his livestream. It was an embarassing enough act to intentionally kill oneself so he could not afford to be humiliated by his viewers.
After spawning back in their base, they immediately started working on their next rocket. According to Eric, this had to be their final attempt at landing onto the Moon and they would spare no effort in doing so.
First off, he called in reinforcement the few remaining member of their group who were not yet working on spatial engineering. Since it would be their last shot, they agreed on helping them with that matter. Since they were not proefficient in building such vehicles, they instead were assigned with the tasks of controling their automated crafting machines and channeling the required resources to them.
Secondly, he took a few days off his work and asked for his team to do the same. He wanted to be ready by the end of the following week after the next one, so in fourteen days from now. It would be quite the challenge for them to accomplish such a feat, especially since they would have to revamp their rocket design to reach that extra acceleration that would get them to the Moon.
However, Eric was really confident in their ability to do so. Only three of them ended up being able to take their five days off of work to be able to play Project Overworld for a whole week, but it would be sufficient since Leyla was one of them. She was also very motivated by their project and worked very hard to improve the various engines of their rocket and how they would be supplied.
By the end of their first week of building the rocket, most of its core components were already built. They only required a bit more polish to be fully ready for the take off, but the structural parts still needed to be printed out by their machines. Eric was really elated by seeing how much they had accomplished during the past few days and everything seemed to place itself in his calculations.
'By the end of next week, we shall be ready to conquer the Moon' He said with determination in his mind.
_______________
Although it was the first time for Keith to maneuver around the Earth and launch himself towards the Moon, the journey went pretty uneventful. He did not even have to manually input some changes in the trajectory that much since the space shuttle was equipped with the latest optimized programs he has been working on during the several days he has been stuck in space.
Just as he expected, he really did overshoot it with the amount of fuel being stored in his vehicle. However, since he was now in orbit, the weight of the shuttle did not really matter during the maneuvers it did to fling itself towards the Moon. In fact, the extra fuel would come in handy when trying to reach the perfect spot where the Starise group would be landing.
Keith was now orbiting around the only natural satellite of the Earth, waiting for the fateful encounter with his rivals. He did equip his vehicle with solar panels and also installed a computer on board, so he would have something to occupy himself on during the following days.
He was not that concerned about waiting for long, though, as he learnt on social medias that 'Ericality' and his team took a few days off of work to focus themselves onto their next rocket. He just hoped that everything went according to plan for them and that he would not have to wait for for more than three weeks for them to reach the Moon.
'Mhh...' Keith questioned himself. 'What should I be coding now?' Since he was left alone with his computer, he was pretty much forced to find a worthwhile project to work onto for the several days of waiting on the Moon's orbit. He had thought of many programs he could be using, such as one managing various projects at the same time and other quality of life programs, but none would really be useful if he was always working on his own.
'Wait, if I need someone else... Why don't I program an AI?' Keith was suddenly struck with a really attractive idea. He was always forced to do everything by himself, be it managing his stocks, chosing which products that would be produced by his machines and even going through all these satellite images just to check whether something unusual appeared in one of them.
That was why, the eventuality of developing an artificial intelligence to do such things in his stead was really interesting in terms of time saving. Hell, with an artificial intelligence he could even fully automate the creation of rockets that would be transporting fuel and resources to his space station. Thanks to this, he may even live up there in space and only go down on Earth to take care of important matters such as expanding his land base or building new modules for his station.
Well, most of these ideas would not actually be achievable in the near future, but developing an artificial intelligence would still be a must-have for him.
'I don't have anything to do anyways, why don't I start scratching my head over this matter?' Keith concluded. He did not know a lot regarding artificial intelligences, other than the theory being all of this. He knew that actual artificial intelligences such as 'Jarvis' in that popular movie were only dreams for now.
Current artificial intelligences were not really 'intelligent' and could only focus on a few types of action such as creating images based on sound inputs for example, or anything that could come to mind. Regardless, the method of transforming sound into an image still had to be programed by a human beforehand and the artificial intelligence would only serve as an automated process to create said images. One could even argue that his automated crafting machines were, in fact, artificial intelligences.
For now, Keith decided to work on a program that would output irregular images taken by his satellites. This would be a really simple first draft for his plans to fully automate the management of his base, but would still be quite valuable for his future progress. He may even expand upon this idea to automatically identify what type of irregularity was being observed by the program and alert him regarding this matter.
'Well, let's do this for the time being.' Keith decided.


October 12, 2032, the game "Project Overworld" would release its first server to the public.
Developed by the company "Advanced Simulations", this game aims to exploit the technologies behind virtual reality devices in order to simulate an entire universe.
The players would all spawn on the same planet and try to survive with or against other players while building up stocks of resources and defenses.
Eventually, they would be able to progress and exploit different resources to create technologies ranging from simple wooden spears to actual space rockets.

This series is based on Ben 10 and various other anime that includes the bizarre antics of FLCL, the school content of various other school anime (My Hero Academia, SNAFU), and the action packed and emotional story telling from Evangelion and SAO.

As for the Runic restriction, its all up to the luck as they are a very high level that very few people could solve them.
It is said that this ruin was a high-level one but with the time level of Ruins regressed that it had become the lowest one.
So, despite most of these restrictions had withered with the time, there are still many that are partially active and suddenly get activated and kill a lot of people in the process if they are lethal type.
The one thing I found most dangerous about this ruin is that its unexplored, it is said that is ruin is not even explored a half and the reason that it had only appeared two times ever, which is really less time to completly explore ruin like this.
As I read it, I make a note of areas that I want to explore and the ones I want to avoid. There are many areas which are out of my League and need high strength, those who venture there without having enough strength die without knowing how.
I read the documents for two hours before I put it down and asked Ashlyn to come inside me before I  head back to the Tempreture room.
It is now time to concentrate on the Blood Drop-in Ashlyn's source, I not only want to comprehend from that faint fire Rule power but also take inspiration from the unclear image to perfect the fire armor move I've created.
I come inside the Temperature Room because outside I could burn my whole apartment down if I make the mistake when I using my fire armor.
Inside the room, I sat cross-legged and concentrate toward my source, and from there I went to Ashlynn's source when I found the blood drop is quietly floating above Ashlynn's source silently.
I felt relieved seeing it quietly floating above Ashlynn's source without any mischief, this blood contains immense energy that even wisp of this energy could blow Ashlyn and me into the pieces that are why when I saw it quietly floating above Ashlynn's source, I felt quite relieved.
I looked at the blood drop for a few seconds before focusing all my mental energy on it.
As I concentrate on it, I soon sensed the extremly faint wisp of fiery fire Rule and I started to focus on it deeply, wanting to comprehend the tiny bit of the fire rule from it that will help my Sunfire Rule reach the Mid Level of Basic Grade.
But that is very hard, climbing the steps of Rule comprehension is very hard, one has put a lot of efforts before one could even comprehend the small wisp of it.
I am not the only one who is comprehending from this blood drop, Ashlyn also doing it, as spent a few hours yesterday comprehending it and few hours today also and earlier when I call her to come inside me, that time also she was comprehending from the blood drop.
She had comprehended the little bit but it is not enough to make the rule power advance but I am hopeful that if we kept comprehending these bits and pieces every day then we will acquire enough comprehension to advance our Sunfire to Mid-level of the Basic stage.
I hope that will happen before we head to the Aferian Ruin so that I will not be in one of the weakest participants.
Time ticked by and I kept comprehending some bits and pieces when unclear images of the Monster started to form in my mind, seeing that I turned ecstatic.
I had been waiting for this moment quite a while and started to look and get the feel of these unclear images. Though these images are very blurry, akin to paintings drawn by my sister they are still very useful.
I continuously kept watching these images of Monster with the single focus and couldnt help but marvel at how effortless it is using the fire ability of its.
Its is not just breathing fire like a normal monster where is there is no technique and grace is present in it, it's every move is able to bring maximum destruction without wastage of any energy.
In hese images, I could see that whenever it breathes the fire, the fire come out spinningly, so that not only has it has the momentum but the fire will also produce the maximum damage.
My favorites images are those where this Monster fight to the very strong opponent as that is where it utilizes its fire armor.
The Fire armor may seem simple cover of fire but it is far from that, it is an exquisite piece of art and from what I have seen and sensed through these Images, I could tell that this Armor is divided into the three modes.
One is Power Mode which is mainly used when the Monster battle, it enhances the every made by the monster, whatever move made my it will be enhanced many times in the power mode.
The last move of mine which had knocked out the opponent directly was inspired by the Power Mode of the Monster.
The second is Speed mode, this mode is used by the Monster to flee. It gives an amazing speed that even a powerful monster than it left behind when the monster used this move.
And the last is fusion mode which gave both the speed and power, it is the trump card of monster and it used this as the last option. It seemed like this option is last of the option of the Moster and seeing how few images of this move could be seen, it seemed to be the last option of the monster and put a lot of strain on it.
The images kept changing in front me, some stayed for a second while others stayed for minuits, some were little clear while other very extremly blurry that even making sense out of them is very hard if not for unique feeling they gave, it is near impossible to grasp the meaning from them.
These images not only to watch but they for sensing as well, each image had produce unique aura of its own and if its distinguished well then one would benefit immensely.
Images flashed by me and I kept studying them, taking whatever implication I could take from them when.
Another image flashed by me it is one of clearer one and the one in that Monster is using its fire armor, seeing that I started to study it more diligently and noticed an unusual tiny spot in the image. 
Gasp!
When I notice what that tiny spot actually is, I gasped in astonishment. The whole image is blurry but that one tiny spot is extremly. This will be the first getting clear look monster's fire Armor, though I am going to see an only tiny bit of the armor, it is more than enough.
Without hesitation, I concentrated all my energy on that spot and what I saw had clearly blown my mind completly.
Threads, fire threads, there are thousands of them hundreds of thousands of them.

The rain beat loudly on Ericka's spring jacket as she walked through the parking lot towards her car. It was cold and wet and the fabric of her clothing had stuck to her body amply showing some light hickeys on her neck. She was oblivious to it and her surroundings. Flashes of the events that transpire last night played through her head. She stop and breathed heavily as the images brought back the sensation and felling of the previous night. The powerful hands on her neck. The scent of his body, the taste of his sweat and her sweat too for all she knew. She had completely surrendered as he ravaged her. He was like a hungry animal feasting on a fresh kill. And she was the body he feasted on. Another image passes. Her legs were in the air and his head by her crutch. She felt his tongue lick her clit slowly and rhythmically, each passing drawing a tingle down her spine which made her arch her back involuntarily. That only made him draw her legs back even more. She didn't even know she was capable of such flexibility. It didn't matter cause he was done tasting her. It was time to feast. The sanitation in her spine doubled and  then triple. Waves of pleasure escape her lips as she grip the bed sheets and tremble furiously. Her mind blackened, normal thoughts became impossible to form. God she thought then moments of blackness, god how could his tongue be this skillful, this pleasant. Blackness rolled over her again as another wave of pleasure assaulted her mind. Her eyes now dazed and watery glimpsed her own legs as it flex and bend now her knees where at the point of touching her elbows. Her legs were shaking uncontrollably, but she couldn't feel it. Drool slip down her lips and tears escaped freely from her eyes though she wasn't crying & her body give no signal of pain. All attention was on the whirlwind that was going on at her crutch. Her head began to lolly from side to side & her hips swung back & forth as that seem the only coordinated reaction her body could make. As the rest of her cooperated fully with the desire of this mans powerful hands & tongue, it seemed like hours had slipped by though only ten minutes had pass. Slowly her right leg slipped back to its natural position and a strong dark hands creep up from beneath them and across her stomach. It rested firmly on one breast, squeezing ever so slightly as the other leg slipped back as well and another hand snake up from between her legs and griped her neck. Then his face appeared. His dark eyes looking right at her, his strong cheek bone and solid chin rising slowly. Then his thick lips glossy wet and covered wet with her nectar. She had cum she knew right on his face, the trembling of her legs and the realest of ecstasy told her as much, and still this beast didn't relent. He smiled sweetly at her and moved forward slowly, kissing each sensitive part of her body as he made his way up to face her, his right and left hands still holding her neck and squeezing her breast slightly. 


Excuse me, miss, are you alright? A voice in the background of her mind brought Ericka back to the situation at hand. She stood there in front of her car and staring into the driver's side. Hello? The voice called again & Ericka turned her head slowly to address the speaker. Yeah she replied I just have a lot on my mind that's all. Okay, the speaker replied I just wanted to make sure cause you were standing there for quite some time. She smiled at the speaker who was a middle age old lady she had a few bags in her hands stamped with the logo of the local grocery store. She must have driven in and parked and saw her standing there unmoving. Thanks again said Ericka to the old woman and open her car door and sat down. She regretted that movement immediately a sharp sore pain assaulted her for that action. A pain that sends her memory racing back to that night once more. Her breathing slowly increased once again. 


With his hands on her neck and breast he moved forward slowly licking every tender spot. His face rested on her right breast as his left hand continues to squeeze her left. His tongue once again escapes his lips and licks the tip of her nipple. Instantly her nipple hardened and her heartbeat quicken as her nipples quiver from the heat that escapes his breath. He looked up at her and made solid eye contact she couldn't tear her eyes away from him so she waited expectingly. Then he slowly smiled and raised his head from her breast. A tinge of disappointed struck her, but she quickly suppressed it. Her breathing was steadying itself again. Ericka felt her self-control coming back. This was good. She can put a stop to this. Then as if sensing her gathering strength his head wiped back down like a serpent and his lips lock on to her nipples and sucked on it with such fury a gasp escaped her mouth. Her body buckled and shook, a wail that was actually a moan erupted from her. His head moved like a savage snake whipping left to right as self-control slipped right through her once again with her body reacting purely on pleasure. Suddenly his big, long & thick cock entered her pussy. She felt the size, the width and length as it continue to climb deeper and deeper inside her belly. All coherent thoughts left her now. Her body began to spasm and jerk, & her clit still sore from the tongue lashing he give it seconds before, erupted with a savage sensation that felt like a horse kick to every corner of her body. Her legs where back up into the air and her knees where bent back towards her shoulders clearly use to the position now. His arms had somehow wrapped around both legs, though she couldn't recall him ever letting go her breast and neck for a second to even stabilize her legs in the air. His hips pump back and forth like a well-oiled machine, each movement sending waves of ecstasy through her body and mind. Ericka howled with pleasure, her voice in full volume with each stroke. Her arms grip his shoulders, feeling the sweat as it ran down his back. She was suddenly silence with a passionate kiss. She felt his tongue rush into her mouth. The length of it had almost gone down her throat. Then savagely he tore away from their kiss and assaulted her neck by sucking hard & making it swell and bulge. An instant hickey she knew and didn't care, and couldn't even if she wish. This Monster had split her mind into pieces and conquered  her on every level. Each part of her body sending a jolt of pain and pleasure that it couldn't even recognize. His head alternating between her breast mouth and neck at random intervals, made it impossible for her to expect what was to come next. So with each passing minute came pure ecstasy, her mind and body surrendering to the whims of this man. He turn her over and bent her knees while forcing her back down to have her breast lay on the pillows. She was now face down and with her ass up in the air didn't realize he had maneuvered her into a new position. It was the sharp slap on her ass that that made her realize she wasn't on her back. The pulsing heat and mechanical stroke from his cock didn't subside it had increase in voracity. now and then accompanying each stroke was a loud stinging slap on her ass that jolts her back from oblivion. Strong hands gripped both of her ass cheeks then letting go and pulling her hair tightly back, forcing her on her elbows then palm as one of his hand grabs her neck. Then two thick fingers forced her mouth open to rest on her tongue as she instinctively played with them, occasionally sucking and licking. That seems to double his already extraordinary effort he was putting in. Somewhere In the back of her mind she smiled. Suddenly he stops and stiffened. Inside her she felt his cock go even harder, if such a thing could even be possible. Then it was suddenly pulled out of her, the width of his penis rubbing on the inside of her vagina throbbing as it exited. Ericka felt her self being turn around and her head whipping forward. Her mouth was still open from playing with his fingers, which were now gone. She suddenly felt and tasted his & her own coating of sweat and sperm as he trusted his cock into her mouth. Shock came and excited her mind so quickly she became numb from the experience. The throbbing in his cock stop and he released all his built up fluids into her. She swallowed deeply, her tongue sticking out the bottom and licked the veins at the bottom of his penis. That brought a deep and low moan from him, like the purr of a lion. Her smile in the back of her mind broaden. He slowly withdrew his cock from her mouth as she still instinctively sucked on it. Ericka's eyes were rolling back in her head as he slowly lean forward and kissed her again with passion. She didn't bother to react to it & just accepted it. Then she was laid back down on her back and her legs rose in the air once again. Spreading apart as his face despair behind her crutch once more followed by the sensation of his tongue again. He wasn't done, this Beast was still hungry. She drifted off into unconsciousness. Ericka slept soundly and sweetly as the Beast devoured her.  


Ericka Grayson woke up inside her car an hour later. She had drifted off and simply passed out. She checks the time it was eight o'clock. She still had time to get home, change, and head to work. So she gathered herself and started her car. Memories of the night before still plagued her, but she had it under control now, letting her work duties take priority over the background images in her mind that threaten to engulf her at a moment's weakness. She put her car into drive and left the parking-lot and those images far behind her.


As the white Honda Civic coup left the parking lot, The Beast closed the curtains. He had been watching Ericka as she left the motel. He had gotten up two hours before her and left the rented motel room & the keys to the motel that said 112 on the night stand beside Ericka. Then left for the room next to it. That was always his custom to rent two rooms, one for his clients which he refers to as his pray and one for him self. When he is finished with them or they simply pass right out from fatigue. He would gather all his belongings and wipe and clean every surface he had ever touch & leave them there, in the same position they had passed out in, He smiled as he remembered Ericka in his trade mark position. She was different, he thought; she has the potential to be so much more. Now alone in his own private quarters, he would get some much needed rest. Any other person would believe this is over excessive and doesn't serve any proper point for such a disappearing act, after all he is by description a male escort so the extra effort is pointless. But the Beast believed that this serve a greater purpose. It adds to the mystery and helps with his prey's transformation. He had watched his pray stop and stumble, her body language clearly showing her to be in a daze and lost in thought. He enjoyed watching the fruits of his labour grow. Even if she is unaware of it, he knew that her metamorphosis has already begun.

An encounter that will forever change her life, an experience that will forever light the flames of her Desire. This is how it Begins,

Ryan smiles with a kind look when he looks at Lily's worried eyes "When you passed out, I injected into your body a small chip that everyone uses on my planet, while that chip is in your body, I have total control of all your movements, it is quite easy to understand, I only control you like a child who controls his remote control toy" He cross your arms looking at Lily's body.

Lily feels a chill at Ryan's gaze "What are you going to do to me? Maybe you're a pervert?" She didn't expect Ryan to turn out to be a pervert interested in her body.

"Perverted? Hahahaha" Ryan laughs out loud when he hears what Lily says, stops laughing and says out loud "Of course not! How disgusting!" Ryan looks at Lily as if he were going to vomit just thinking about doing something perverted with Lily.

"D-disgusting?" Lily can't believe what she just heard "So what do you want to do to me?"

"What do I want to do? Hmmm is a complicated thing to explain, but since I don't hate you or something, I will explain it to you, I just want your body to save the humans from my planet" Ryan approaches Lily and with his finger touches slowly Lily's left arm skin.

"Save them with my body? I don't understand you!" Lily is increasingly confused by what Ryan says and tries to move to keep Ryan from touching her arm, but as expected, she can't move at all.

Ryan stops touching Lily and sits at the table with a relaxed attitude "Calm down, you'll soon understand" He touches his neck with his right hand, Ryan's eyes suddenly emit a strong light that illuminates a wall, a series of images appear on the wall as if Ryan's eyes acted as a projector "This is the city where I live, it's a very beautiful city, isn't it? Well, it's the only city in my world that has humans, 40 years ago, our civilization was developing at incredible speed, we even found life on other planets! It was not impossible to terraform any planet so that our race could expand throughout the universe, but the disaster happened..." Ryan looks at the images on the screen with sadness, in the images there are many people who collaborate together to create better technologies, art, music and much more. He then changes the images quickly, in the following images there is destruction, chaos, death and despair.

Lily looks at the images with a dazed look, she does not understand why suddenly Ryan changed from happy images to many images that just by looking at them, makes her feel a little the pain that all these people suffered.

"One day, for some reason, the women of my planet became infected with a virus that caused them a terrifying change, approximately 70% of the women died, the other 30% of the women became strange mutations that turned them into monsters, those monsters have the ability to create more monsters simply by making contact with the skin of men, they took all men by surprise, the monsters appeared in every town, city and country in the world. It was impossible to stop them, only one city survived, a city that everyone on my planet knew before the disaster 'Space City' that city was saved because it is a city that is always in heaven!" Ryan takes a deep breath and continues talking "Known as the most technological city of our civilization, when women began to become monsters due to the unknown virus, they were all exterminated immediately by the city's defenses, thousands of robots, plasma turrets and attack drones. Those monsters did not they lasted 1 hour in the city, you will wonder how we could survive 40 years without women... Cloning, we survived thanks to cloning, our civilization prospered again after 1 year of the mutation disaster!" Ryan then squeezes his hands so hard that his fingers creak.

"But that damn virus that killed and turned all women into monsters was more malicious than we expected! At first we managed to clone some women thanks to the blood samples we had, but when we thought everything was fine, it happened again and this time it was much worse... The women who had been cloned became much stronger monsters! it was very difficult to destroy them, that was not all, it was no longer possible to clone more women, even all blood samples were infected, men were also affected! although none suddenly became a monster due to the virus, the cloning worsened, today, only 1 in 10,000 men can be successfully cloned, our civilization is declining more and more, there is no way we can save ourselves or that is what I thought until one day I woke up in this place and I saw you " Ryan stops projecting images with his eyes.

Ryan looks at Lily's body with desire "When we leave the cloning capsule, we already have the body and mind of someone of 20 years. We know everything about our language and the general knowledge of our civilization. I am currently 10 years old since I was cloned, when I arrived here, I was wondering why we speak the same language, when analyzing everyone's lips when they spoke, each person moved their lips differently by saying the same words, I came to the conclusion of that it is through that system that we can communicate with each other"

"I'm not interested in that kind of thing! Why do you want my body!?" Lily was already getting impatient, she looks at Ryan with hateful eyes, she didn't expect Ryan to be so talkative.

"Sigh, you are not patient, well, then I will continue, your body is special, in my world the air is covered with the virus, all men have the virus in their bodies, with my chip I can see the color of the virus, my body it's covered with a red cloud and when that cloud made contact with your body, nothing happened to you!" Ryan says with a voice of emotion.

"So you say I'm immune to the virus? Don't you think it's too much coincidence?" Lily says with disdain, she doesn't believe in those stories where only she is immune to a stupid virus.

Ryan says mockingly "It's not that you're special or something, I suspect that all humans in your dimension are immune to the virus"

"So you need a sample of my blood or do you want me to go to your world?" Lily asks suspiciously.

"Take you to my world?" Ryan shakes his head "It's true that I want a blood sample, but not only do I want that, I also want your organs and skin"

Lily's face pales in a second upon hearing Ryan's words "D-do you want my organs and my skin?"

Ryan says with a heroic expression "Everything is for the good of my planet, if you help me with your body, you will be remembered forever!"

"I don't want to be remembered, ahhhh, please, someone to help me!" Lily screams in the hope that some of the other people are close.

"Nobody will come to save you, it is no use screaming, well, let's start, first I will open your stomach and analyze the organs better while they are fresh" Ryan takes a small disk out of his pocket, squeezes it and becomes a briefcase. He puts the briefcase on the table, opens it and takes out several medical knives from the briefcase. With a knife in his hand, he says "If you think it is rare for me to have a briefcase with medical knives, it is normal in my world for all men to have some basic equipment for analysis and protection"

Lily has tears in her eyes, she can only tremble in this situation, but suddenly a loud sound resonates in the room!

"Booom!!"

A wall in the room suddenly breaks, the dust completely covers the person who broke the wall, Lily believes that someone came to save her, but when the dust disperses, she sees something that makes her tremble even more...

Ryan looks stunned at the broken wall, sees a tall monster with many heads on his back "H-how did this monster find us?" Then remember Lily's scream and understand that this monster was probably attracted to Lily's scream.

"Gaaaaaaahhhh!!!" The monster is not the one who screams, just look at Ryan without expression, it is the heads on its back that scream without stopping, then the heads start to fall from the monster's back, each head that falls to the ground has different facial expressions, from the heads come out small spider legs made of bones. All heads jump into Ryan's body with incredible speed!

"Gaaaahhh!!" "Gaaaaahhh!!!"

"Ahhh damn things!" Ryan tries to remove the heads from his body, he sees how the heads bite him with its incredibly sharp teeth. Ryan stabs the heads with the medical knife, the heads scream and fall to the ground. But the falling heads soon jump again over Ryan's body.

Lily holds her breath for fear that this tall monster will see her and decide to send those scary heads to kill her.

Ryan takes another disk out of his pocket, but this time the disk becomes a gun, it looks like a revolver, but its exterior is white with red.

 "Bang!; ¡pam, pam!"

"Gaahhh!!" "Gaaaahh!" "Gaaahh!!"

Ryan shoots at the heads, every shot is so powerful that the heads explode, scattering pieces of brain and blood everywhere that stain the entire room.

With the body covered with wounds from the bites of the heads, he points his weapon at the tall monster, with a wild expression he fires all the bullets, he takes advantage that his weapon contains many bullets, about 30 bullets, the monster receives all the bullets in its entire body, but instead of dying, he walks slowly to where Ryan is, as if it felt no pain from the bullets.

Ryan watches the monster get closer and closer, fires all his bullets, but the monster still doesn't die! With an expression of fear, he turns to run, but before he can move, a hand pierces his stomach, Ryan falls to the floor breathing hastily, but his breathing becomes increasingly soft.

Lily looks fearfully at the tall monster next to Ryan, she feels that her body can already move, but she fears moving and dying as Ryan did. But suddenly the monster falls on its back and stops moving. She does not know if the monster is dead, slowly gets up from the table and rushes to escape from that place. But someone grabs her ankle when she was about to run, looks fearfully at her foot, sees Ryan looking at her with a smile, he says "T-that monster is dead, the damage it caused me no longer allows me to use my chip, but it is not necessary, I will simply kill you and take out your chip..."He tries to reach the medical knife that is on the floor with his right hand.

Lily clenches her teeth, rushes and quickly grabs the knife. With a deep breath, she looks at Ryan who is looking at her with a dazed look and repeatedly stabs Ryan in the chest. She stops when she sees Ryan stop breathing.

With her heart beating very fast, she walks away trembling, but a series of notifications appear in front of her and are not just system notifications.

"Ding!"

[

One of the users has been removed from the test, the system wishes luck to the other 3 users.

The user Lily deleted another user, the system decides to grant the copy of the system that the dead user has to the user Lily.

The user completed a secret secondary mission of the test, the user was rewarded with the possibility of competing in the last mission with the 2 users who have completed the main missions of the test.

]

Lily sees how a green light leaves Ryan's body and enters her body.

[

2/5 copies of the system obtained.

]

Then Lily sees another notification appear, but this time it is not from the system and the notification appears in her mind!

{

The 3.3.0.1.2.6 chip detects that the 8.2.1.5.1.9 chip has stopped working.

The 3.3.0.1.2.6 chip will automatically search for a new leader... looking for... New leader found, a human woman will be selected as the owner of the 3.3.0.1.2.6 chip.

The 3.3.0.1.2.6 chip awaits new orders!

}

"Chip?" Lily says with an expression of being very confused.

"Gimana menurutmu?" tanya Tina.
Vaka meloncat dari bahu Tina dan mendarat di sebelahnya. Di rerumputan, mereka berjalan bersama.
"Kita harus dapetin belati ini."
Tina mengerti alasannya. Kalau belati ini diteliti, cara untuk memulangkan Vaka pasti akan ketemu. Dan walaupun Vaka bilang dia tidak buru-buru, dia tidak mau melewatkan kesempatan ini.
"Tapi aku ogah turun ke lantai 19. Aku masih belum mau mati." ucap Tina.
Vaka mendengus, "ada aku di sini. Aku ini level 8--level 80 kalau hitungan manusia, jadi turun ke sana akan semudah berjalan-jalan di kebun. Kakimu bakalan kotor dan becek oleh darah, tapi selain itu gak susah."
Tina mencubit dagunya. "Apa gak masalah, kamu kan sedang terluka?"
Vaka tidak pernah membicarakan keadaannya, namun Tina sadar Vaka menghabiskan banyak sekali waktu untuk tidur. Kemungkinan besar, berevolusi dan mendapatkan tanduk silver itu bukanlah hal yang mudah, dia perlu istirahat beberapa bulan—atau bahkan beberapa tahun agar kondisinya kembali normal. Selain itu, membiarkan Vaka membunuh penyihir di lantai 19 begitu saja juga tidak sesuai dengan moral kompas miliknya.
Vaka mendengus, namun dia membuang mukanya. Membuktikan kalau pemikiran Tina tidak meleset jauh.
"Yang jelas, resikonya terlalu gede. Walaupun begitu, aku juga gak mau nyerah gitu aja."
"Kamu bipolar atau apa sih. Bentar iya, bentar enggak." ucap Vaka, ngedumel.
Tina tertawa kecil. "Tujuan utama kita ke sini nyari monster. Di lantai 18, kalau gak ada monster mau gak mau aku harus turun makin dalem. Di lantai 19 ini tujuan utamaku tetap nyari duit, namun kalau ada kesempatan--yang kemungkinan besar gak akan mudah didapatkan--aku akan berusaha mencoba mengambil belati itu."
Ketika hal itu terjadi, Tina akan memanfaatkan sihirnya untuk jadi transparan dengan maksimal. Dia tidak mau bertarung dengan 3 kubu sekaligus.
Tina berhenti berjalan. Tangga batu berwarna abu-abu menurun ke bawah. Ujung lantainya gelap, seolah kristal mana yang dari tadi menerangi labirin ini tiba-tiba menghilang. Tina menelan ludahnya dan turun.
Di lantai 18 cahayanya redup bagaikan malam hari dengan bulan yang terang. Udara dingin terasa di kulit Tina, dan punggungnya seketika menggigil. Ketika Tina melangkah, suara rumput-rumput mati berwarna kehitaman yang terinjak terdengar. Di depan Tina, tanahnya naik dan turun, membentuk bukit kecil. Tiap bukitnya berisi beberapa pepohonan mati. Cabangnya kering kerontang.
"Ini lantai 18." gumam Tina.
"Tempat ini ... sekarat." ucap Vaka.
Sepengetahuan Tina, lantai 18 ini memang berisi bukit-bukit dan pohon yang kering. Monster di lantai ini semuanya memiliki darah yang sangat dingin, dan keahlian mereka membentuk es. Ketika darah monster berdarah dingin ini tumpah, suhu udara akan turun. Monster tertentu bahkan akan menimbulkan salju jika mayatnya tidak segera dibereskan.
Merasakan dingin di kulitnya, Tina cukup yakin semua monster di lantai mati.
Tina menghela nafasnya, menyiapkan hati jika yang terburuk terjadi.
Tina dan Vaka mulai berjalan sambil transparan. Mereka melihat beberapa mayat monster yang belum sempat terbakar. Badannya terkoyak bagaikan ada mulut raksasa yang menggigit monster itu hidup-hidup. Jelas-jelas kalau jantung kristalnya sudah diambil.
Tina membakar monster ini, berharap udara dinginnya menghilang. Namun setelah selesai, udara dingin di kulit Tina tidak berubah.
Setelah berjalan mulai masuk ke dalam, Tina sampai ke area yang mulai dipenuhi salju. Ini pertama kalinya dalam dua hidup Tina melihat salju, dan dia iri karena Vaka punya bulu yang lebat. Tina menggigil di sini.
Tina mengalirkan mana ke seluruh tubuhnya dan mulai mengeluarkan aura panas dari tiap pori-porinya. Seketika, Tina baikan.
Berjalan di atas salju, Tina mulai masuk ke antara pepohonan yang terlihat hibernasi. Tina berharap ada satu atau dua monster di sini, dan setelah beberapa saat masuk ke hutan penuh salju ini, dia menemukan sesuatu. Sayangnya itu bukan monster.
Tapi mayat.
Mayat itu mengenakan pakaian militer berwarna hitam. Tidak ada jubah, dan di kanannya, logo matahari terlihat. Dia penyihir Kerajaan Saatzis.
Yang menangkap pandangan Tina selain logo itu adalah kantong kulit berwarna cokelat yang menggantung di ikat pinggangnya. Kemungkinan besar uang.
Tina berhenti berjalan dan menggigit bibirnya.
Perdebatan besar muncul di dalam hatinya. Dia ke sini butuh uang, dan mayat ini memiliki uang. Di sisi lain, dia menolak ide ini. Mengambil sesuatu dari mayat adalah hal terhina yang tidak akan pernah dia lakukan.

*Sigh*
Hiatus dalam waktu yang tidak ditentukan.
