Novice Mission

"You have been selected as an Elector."

Just now, Alex received an inexplicable text message, without Caller ID, unable to delete or reply.

"Virus? "Alex was a bit annoyed. He heard that SMS viruses were very popular during this period, but unexpectedly, he was also caught.

"Please select a Faction."

Just as Alex was about to shut down and restart to check the situation, his phone suddenly vibrated slightly and a new line of text changed on the screen.

Alex looked at the phone screen in surprise, surprised to see that the virus was quite advanced, and could even automatically switch text?

"Heaven Faction"

"Demon Faction"

"Please select"

Three lines of text pop up again on the phone screen.

"Poor trick. "Looking at the text on the phone screen, Alex chuckled disdainfully. Hackers' taste is really getting worse these days, and they would come up with such a naive trick. I'm afraid only fools would fall for it.

Alex knows that in this situation, regardless of which option is chosen, it will automatically trigger the hacker's pre set startup program, and then irreversibly deduct fees from the bank account in the background.

The best way to deal with this situation is to ignore it and shut it down and restart.

However, just as Alex was about to turn off his phone by pressing the power off button on it, an inexplicable palpitations suddenly spread. By some strange coincidence, Alex's finger gently tapped on the "Demon Faction" on the phone screen.

When Alex touched the phone screen with his finger, the phone suddenly shook without warning. Before Alex could react, a red light suddenly shot out of the phone screen and went straight into Alex's eyes.

In an instant, the sky spun around and countless mythical scenes flashed through Alex's mind.

The magnificent temple floating in the air, the huge ships sailing in the sky, the majestic gods and ferocious demons flying all over the sky, and scenes that could never have appeared in reality constantly appeared in Alex's mind, leaving him amazed and somewhat puzzled. What happened? How come these mythological images come to mind?

He didn't know how long it took, but when various images in Alex's mind slowly disappeared and Alex looked at his phone screen again, it had already switched to another paragraph of text.

"Dear Alex, congratulations on being chosen by fate to become a noble Elector. I hope you can survive in the upcoming missions and eventually evolve into a super entity."

"What the hell is going on here? "The sudden change just now made Alex feel a bit uneasy. Alex faintly felt that this seemed not a simple SMS virus.

Alex was a bit scared. He really wanted to throw his phone out of the window, but there was a premonition in his heart that if he did, something very bad would happen.

This premonition came so abruptly that Alex dared not have the idea of throwing away his phone anymore.

When Alex was still in doubt, his phone trembled slightly, and a line of red text appeared on the phone screen.

"Honorable human Elector, Your Excellency Alex, welcome to join the Demon Faction. We hope that in the future, you can bring war, plague, famine, and death to the entire world, allowing the earth to burn out in your shadow."

After this passage of text, no new text finally popped up on the phone screen, and the light on the screen gradually faded.

However, only a moment later, accompanied by a deep and strange ringing of the phone, the screen suddenly lit up brightly again.

"Novice Mission: In order to demonstrate your courage and evil nature in killing, please kill Thomas who has previously clashed with you within 24 hours.

Upon completion of the mission, a reward of 80 Demon Gold Coins will be awarded, and the Elector System will be officially activated.

If the mission fails, you will be wiped out."

What? Why should I kill someone? "Alex was shocked when he saw the content on his phone screen.

For Alex, who has never killed any animals since childhood in Dalian, killing others is a challenge.

Moreover, killing someone is a violation of the law. Even if the mission is truly completed, how can he escape arrest by the police?

Alex doesn't want to spend the rest of his life in prison.

The expression on his face changed and changed, and Alex's heart became conflicted.

Alex doesn't think this is just a boring prank. The inexplicable images that suddenly appeared in his mind gave him a vague understanding. If he didn't follow the prompts on his phone to complete the mission, he was likely to be wiped out 24 hours later.

It is obvious that this is a 'system', and it is not important who established it, nor is the purpose for which it was established. The important thing is that Alex has been selected as the Elector of the system and cannot actively exit. The only thing Alex can do now is to follow the prompts given on his phone and complete the mission.

Alex is just an ordinary people with no great idea of sacrificing himself for others. If he had to make a choice between his own life and the lives of others, as long as he was not a loved one, Alex would eventually choose to sacrifice others and protect himself.

Besides, Thomas does have a deep conflict with him.

That was over three years ago, Alex had just arrived in this city to attend university. One day, he was drinking with three friends in a bar. One of them accidentally burned the sofa while smoking, and it happened that Thomas, the owner of the bar, saw him. As a result, he was scolded by Thomas.

Although Alex wanted to calm things down by spent some money, his friends were impulsive. Coupled with having just drunk, how could he tolerate Thomas' insults? They started to fight with Thomas.

Thomas, who was in his forties, was quickly knocked down by young men in his twenties. However, just as Alex and his friends were about to leave the internet cafe, a dozen gang of youths with sticks suddenly rushed in ferociously. With Thomas's command, a dozen gang of youths with sticks surrounded them and began a fierce fight.

Although he was cowardly, Alex was very loyal to friends. When he saw his brother being beaten, he immediately took the Ashtray on the table and rushed to them.

After the incident, Alex and the three brothers swore to kill Thomas one day, but after that incident, everyone knew that Thomas had a close relationship with the local gang. The so-called words of revenge are only privately spoken by them, seeking comfort in their hearts.

After experiencing that incident, Alex, who had been very quiet in high school, became even more dull. However, in Alex's heart, he never give up the idea of revenge. Even if he was temporarily unable to achieve it, when he had the opportunity in the future, Alex would definitely find trouble with Thomas.

However, if he wants to kill Thomas, he still need to plan carefully. There is only one chance. If he scare Tomas and let him run away, Alex will never find Thomas who is alert again within 24 hours.

As for how to evade the police's pursuit after killing someone, this is no longer something Alex can consider and can only adapt according to circumstances. Even if caught by the police and sent to prison, it is much better than being wiped by a mysterious system.

Thinking of this, Alex stuffed his phone into his pocket and sat up from the bed.

Today is Saturday, as Alex is about to graduate in just over a month and everyone is very busy, Alex is the only one in the apartment at this time.

Putting on his coat, Alex dug out the last Franklin of the month under his pillow and walked out of the apartment building towards the market not far from the school.

To kill someone, the first thing is to have a handy weapon, even the Romans used a dagger to assassinate Nero.

Don't think about guns or anything else, let alone Alex without a gun certificate. Even if he had one, he wouldn't have enough money on him.

Alex's living expenses mainly come from his part-time salary, barely enough for his daily expenses. Where can he afford to buy a gun?

But without a gun, it doesn't mean you can't kill people. Alex went to the market to buy a machete.

The type of machete he is looking for is over a foot long, with a sharp tip and a blood groove inside. It is usually used to cut bony meat or clean shrubs during wilderness exploration, and is more than enough to kill people. Most importantly, a machete is only thirty dollars, cheap and practical.

Alex believes that as long as Thomas is forcefully stabbed through his body, he will die unless he can be taken to the hospital within five minutes.

As far as Alex knows, there is no hospital nearby that can undergo surgical rescue. Even the nearest large hospital to the school takes ten minutes by car without traffic congestion.

The ambulance arrived in ten minutes, loading people into the car took three minutes, returning to the hospital took another ten minutes, and pushing into the operating room took another three minutes.

Even if they could do some simple hemostatic treatment in an ambulance, Thomas would definitely die.

Moreover, Alex can still stab Thomas a few more times, and stabbing him directly is of no rescue value.

He bought a machete at a knife shop, and hid it in his clothes and walked straight to the mustache bar near the school.

The Beard Bar is the bar operated by Tomas, less than 200 meters away from the main entrance of the university. The decoration of the bar is very stylish, clean and tidy, with dozens of stalls and an island platform inside. It has a wide variety of drinks and is a well-known local bar.

Due to the good environment and reasonable prices of drinks, business can be described as extremely hot. Of course, since that incident, Alex and his buddies have never been to the Beard Bar again.

Tomas can also be considered a celebrity in Lungen, with over twenty ruthless youths under his command. He can be said to be domineering and no one dares to provoke him.

Few people in this area are unaware of Tomas. Last time, it was because Alex and his friends had just arrived in Lungen and had never heard of Tomas' name. Otherwise, they wouldn't dare to fight with Tomas.

The Beard Bar is divided into two floors, covering an area of over two thousand square meters. Alex walked slowly into the hall and saw that although the business was slow during the day, there were still many people gathered here. Just now, his heart became nervous again.

To be honest, Alex has never killed any animals since childhood, and now he is asked to kill someone in public, still during the day. How can Alex not be nervous and afraid.

However tense and fearful, the mission still needs to be done. Alex doesn't want to be wiped by the system because he can't complete the mission.

Walking to the counter next to the entrance, Alex looked at the cashier sitting at the counter and tried to show a friendly smile on his face.

"May I ask if Boss Tomas is there?"

The female cashier is about eighteen or nine years old, with a very average appearance and heavily smoked makeup. When she heard Alex's question, her tone was blunt and she asked, "What can I do for you?"

"I am his friend and I have something to discuss with him. "Alex said with a smile.

Upon hearing that Alex claimed to be a friend of the boss, the female cashier carefully looked at Alex's young face with a hint of suspicion on her face. However, she still picked up the phone at the counter and dialed a number, saying, "Boss, there's someone here at the counter who says they're your friend and wants to talk to you about something."

Alex don't know what was said on the phone, but the female cashier hung up after humming and humming twice. She looked up and said to him, "Please wait here for a while, our boss will come out right away."

Seeing the suspicious expression on the female cashier's face, Alex nodded and didn't say any more.

In a moment, a middle-aged man with a big belly and slightly bald hair slowly walked out of a room next to the counter with a manager's office sign. He casually asked the female cashier sitting at the bar, "Lisa, who's looking for me?"

He is the target that Alex is going to kill this time, Tomas.
