Mission activation

That ambush we encountered… It was unbelievable their numbers were at 30 plus or more making me use ignite and shock. While amplifying their power to the max, there's no way this would've occurred if my story progressed as it should. Even with my interference with the plot, which leaves me with only one theory. A transmigrater or a ton of them screwing over my story. A reader may be…? But the fact that they did something in the world of trials caused this change of difficulty. It makes me want to interfere with what they're doing

[What are you doing?]

"I'm using the server to find someone," He entered the registration process on the mysterious function

[System: You've entered the player server

Please enter a nickname: __________]

"This kinda looks like a discord server, let's use my alt account name from Lucid novel. There must be a few readers that'll recognize my name," He said as a keyboard materialized itself near the message. He quickly entered his name which made him wait for a few seconds or more

[System: The nickname has been locked welcome to Server #6 [Benevolent Sage]. That name will stick with the player until his untimely death. You can now access the player server, we advise you to be polite, we've recently muted a ton of players]

[You're calling yourself a sage? You're not even close to my level yet]

"It doesn't have anything to do with you! Just sit back and watch. I'll find us a few people that can help us in our current state. There are a few people that I have some connections or know a few things to make them repay me," He said as he entered the Server

[System: Welcome Benevolent Sage

Striking leaf: A new player arrived at the server

Killer doll: What kind of nickname is that is this guy an oldie

Benevolent Sage: @Killer doll I'm not an oldie you brat I can beat you with one finger. Anyway is there anyone here who met a person affiliated with the cult of persevis? 

Foolish swordsman: I've heard that before they said that they'll move to server 7 right after]

'If I were a random transmigrater I'd probably join this group. In my story Persevis is one of the few rankers in the world of trials, he's known as a person who spreads false predictions. Regardless everything he says became true that's because in the early story most of the trials are in the game. Later new trials after a volume one, if I were a transmigrater I'll join without a doubt because he gives a ton of perks if you join his crew,'

[Are you done…? I thought it would be a long process to track down someone who's hiding their true name]

"I've just sent a direct message to one of his followers, I think that's enough to find them," He grabbed one potion in his bag, drinking it to the very last drop. Resulting in a few of his injuries within his body being recovered. However, he was far from doing anything reckless, for the reason to be his overloaded mana circuits

[You're going to stir up another trouble without a doubt…? If your vision is irrelevant then you could die if you didn't plan on your success, how come you're still confident?]

"Just because I don't know what's going to happen next I'll get scared of my surroundings. Even a seer can die, even if they can see the future it's useless if they can't change the present. Most of them are always secretive about their work, and because of that, those geezers are dead," He took off his bandages which revealed a ton of stitches in his body. After a few seconds, he notices his clothes folded clothes in the table close to his bed 

Apart from the stitches, he notices that his body was always covered in a thick black robe. Had developed a physique that was the result of his training, even though he mostly focuses on magic. A few seconds after he was intrigued about his new figure. He wore his clothes and proceeded to walk towards his only exit

[You're going now?]

"I'm not a lunatic even with the potion's help my body is still… Arrggg, I'm just going to explore this safe zone whatever it's called. And later on, I'll discuss my plans with the others, I just need to cool my head. I've recently escaped death, I need to walk off my frustrations," He jumped from the balcony of his room and landed directly on top of the rooftop. After that, he safely made his way back to the ground and took a morning stroll

'I've found something interesting from sage, the reason why my recoil became a threat. The fact that I had mana breathing on, made the newly gained mana I received from breathing fluctuate. Causing it to explode and gush out of my body, you're wondering why this never happened before? I never once abused my mana breathing except for the time I fought the Goblin King. Why didn't I suffer from a recoil? Mystic slash is kinda the hardest tier 1 spell it sucks away every mana from the user's body, which is why I never had this accident before,'

Taking a turn to the right Morris bumps into a random player that dropped a crate that looked important. Seeing as the player quickly put the items back while Morris pitched in to help

"Sorry about that," Morris said with a soft tone while he reached out for a handshake 

"It's alright, I was rushing myself! I didn't even notice you even though I had a clear view," The player said, fleeing the scene with haste. Witnessing that strange occurrence, he was a little weirded out from his encounter. But he didn't make that lose his cool, after all, he wanted to take a stroll to loosen his stress

After he minded his own business he continued his tour in the safe zone. Walking and even looked at the gorgeous scenery, until he saw a familiar canister similar to the player he bumped into. Curious he was to learn about the origins of the item, he picked up the canister. Whilst he appraises it only to be shocked by his discovery

'No way this is a~'

[Monster evo gas, It's not as potent as the one we've encountered before. Nevertheless, it's still a dangerous item if it's held by the wrong player. The infected players are seen to be that of a monster, evo gas can mutate and enhance monsters. This must be the origin of those infected you've faced before, weren't they a little too intelligent? It's like they were acting like the monsters you've fought inside the coliseum]

"They're behind all of this…? I'm gonna make them all pay!!!,"  He was enraged after he found a clue relating to his incident. There wasn't a doubt, it was a player or a reader of his that was affiliated with the mad alchemist. After a few seconds have passed his body started to ache. The mana lying dormant in his body had reacted with his rage causing him to lose his balance

[Let them go!!! You can't do anything with that body of yours!!! You can't even use magic properly in that state. How are you going to fight them huh...?]

He attempted to stand up after his body felt stunned by the sudden fluctuations in his mana circuits. Without any way of following the player, he gave up his chase, only for his body to collapse. He could feel his vision blackening once more and the last memory he had was an encounter with a player

"What are the odds!!!? It's you… I've found you, oh no what's happening with your body..?," His body was caught by the stranger who was eagerly surprised by their encounter. After that, he woke up in an unknown location while he smelled the scent of the evo gas. Surprisingly, his body felt normal. He could move without any problems and the greatest part was that he can feel his body rid of his injuries

"Thank you for your assistance back then, and today. It seems that I was given huge luck when I simply followed my deity's instructions. If you didn't pick this canister I wouldn't have been unable to track down that troublesome alchemist. Pay no mind about your situation, I'm your ally, as you can probably notice I've healed you," A mysterious player was walking away from the shade

Which reveals a tall handsome face with green hair and wearing a white lab coat. He gave a bow and a sign of respect towards him by healing him of his wounds. The biggest issue was that he was emanating an aura similar to Morris an aura of an avatar

[System: You've sensed the aura of the deity known as [The Apothecary That Makes Miracles]. The deity has a good image of player Christoper Morris, for his acts of stopping the mad alchemist]

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Morris, I am Blake Belfast I am the avatar of the apothecary. The one that's been fighting the hell created by the mad alchemist. Would you like a cup of hot tea? I've always brewed a couple before I start my journey," Blake said kneeling before his sight and granting him a cup of tea

'I don't know if he's a normal player or a transmigrater but the fact that he healed me can't be left unanswered. I'm not someone who likes to get into a lot of trouble, for now, let's play along. He doesn't have any intentions to kill me, plus being unconscious was the perfect place to strike. Also, he mentioned the alchemist,

"That would be lovely Mr. Blake my mouth feels a little dry after all," He takes the tea that Blake has offered

'Just a sniff of it confirmed his identity he's a real apothecary. I can smell the ever-soothing and fragrant odor of well-brewed herbal tea. There's nothing to fear, let's drink it,'

Before he could savor the taste of the tea some familiar voice startled him making him drink it in one gulped 

"You're finally awake, thank god for the three of us. We're wondering when you'll wake up," Yoona startled Morris, which changed the relaxing atmosphere to utter chaos. He wasn't able to savor drinking all of the tea when he barely even had a taste 

*Cough* *Cough*

"What the hell is wrong with you…? No, that's not even the worst part, why are you here!!? I made sure that no one could follow me. Wait, don't tell me, hey you told them didn't you? Did a cat bite your tongue…? You traitor, why aren't you speaking sage? Speak already, you know something that I don't," Morris was furious when he found out his deities schemes behind his back

[I thought a stroll around the city would help you loosen up. How should I know that you would've met a very troubling person? So I've alerted these three and gave them an item to track your location]

"Ok, I'll forget that you've followed me. Yoona, go back to the others and I'll arrive when this is all over. I need you three to find out the activation of the stage 3 mission," Morris said while Yoona displayed a smug expression

"This whole thing is the activation for the stage 3 mission to progress. When you were asleep we received an important message from the system. It was from your deity, and due to his help, we were able to make our way to the safe zone. If you want to read the other contents, then here," Yoona handed out the paper which was given to her by hid deity

'System: A difficulty change will now commence 

Alert: You're near the activation requirements for the stage 3 mission 

Mission: Search the safe zone for anything suspicious, you might find the activation for the 3rd mission,'
