Chapter 3: Assassination Attempt
Ding* [New Items had been looted]
Ding* [New Items had been looted]
MMORPG was a great game, with the advancement of technology, although PC wasn't virtual reality, with the headphone while playing games, you could feel like you were in another world when you were playing.
It was like a low-key virtual reality!
Not that way that you really could go the game world but you could feel the game world.
I think, feeling like you were there and having you there were two different things.
.
On another side of the corner, near the internet cafe, a humanoid figure wearing a whole body bizarre metal armor was hiding in an abandoned house.
Other than the feature of the humanoid figure, the figure's height was taller than humans, at least at the estimated height of two and a half meters.
Other than that, the figure looked normal.
No one knows if it was because of the armor but it was more likely the figure's real height.
The figure in armor leaned his back at the wall of an abandoned house and took a glimpse through the mirror, looking at the next-door shop.
Cring*
From his wristband, a vibration suddenly occurred which took him out from his concentration.
He lowered his head and when he saw the name-calling him, he stabilized himself and acted professionally.
He pressed a certain button and a green screen appeared.
Ziiii*
Ziiii*
A figure of another individual wearing armor that more reliable than him appeared on the green screen.
"Did you find the thing I tasked you to search for?! "
The figure on the screen asked, you could feel the irritation and unpleasantness at the voice.
Even it was just a device that was transmitting the voice, the feeling the figure wanted to show still could be felt.
"General, the thing you were looking for was already located by me. I'm just waiting for the General's next command "
"Well, listen carefully to my every word. You must take that thing at all cost even if you need to pay with your own life. Take it as soon as possible and bring it to me! "
After that, both sides of the screen folded, and the call was ended.
Heard the words of his leader, even the call already ended, he still gave a salute before he pressed another button at his wristwatch.
Energy from the wristwatch suddenly engulfed his whole body and he turned into mist.
However, he didn't disappear, yet just turned invisible by the feature of a wristwatch.
Humans' technology wasn't the only one that proceeded into advancement, yet Aliens too.
And in some other way, they even can be dubbed more advance than humans, after all, they even created a moon where they could inhabit and hid themselves.
A moon that even after thousands of years of expropriation by the space excavation of groups of humans didn't even find any loophole.
And before they even started their invasion, they already made sure that the technologies could support them.
Though in the end, Humans still cope up and the gap between the two became dire.
Now, many cctvs could detect them, and there were also the walls created by humans that making their every step complicated.
One step wrong and they would die.
If not for the fact that this country that he entered was just a newly established country and the technologies that protecting this place were limited, especially in this area, it shouldn't turn this easy for him.
Invisible to the naked eyes, the figure decided to execute things as soon as possible.
Even in the daylight, there was no slight hesitation in his heart and no thought of delaying his mission.
He paid too much manpower, effort, and too much time for him just to find this thing the General was looking for. He just found a clue a while ago, accidentally.
He doesn't plan to make things longer.
Although the energy he received a while ago was just a brief moment and disappeared again, that was enough to locate the source.
And he detected that the energy came from the shop next door.
Thinking that a mere human was holding the thing, he was expecting, nothing more than normal.
Standing at the front of the shop, he raised and saw the plaque board where the name of the shop was written.
Even in this shop, there was nothing abnormal. Everything was a mortal thing.
The only thing bothering him was, he can't feel any traps inside, and the more the enemy was silent, the more it looked wasn't real.
Are there traps inside?
He wasn't sure.
Maybe, they don't know the importance of the book?
Are things as normal as it seems?
He can not figure it out, although he wasn't an idiot, he still cannot take a grasp of it after a long time and thoughts.
'Am I just overthinking things? Maybe the owner is just a lucky ass and obtained the thing accidentally? '
He then shook his head and decided to set sail, as long there were no visible threats, it should be okay.
Maybe it would be not an easy task, yet he'd expecting not more than near impossible.
Looking at his wristwatch, he remembered that there was an escape feature in it, if there was something mishap happened, he could just escape.
He tightened his hand and formed a first before he stepped forward.
It was now or never.
At the end of the day, if he failed the mission, he knows that he would die at the hand of the General.
Whatever decision, the end was the same if he failed.
However, the figure made an ought to the General and he would die to for it.
After one deep breath, the figure promised that whatever traps or threats inside, an alien will never and should not ever retreat when against humans.

Arthur while playing suddenly, for an unknown reason felt goosebumps all over his body. He felt like something was about to happen. His guts suddenly telling him to run as soon as possible.
With his rich experience in life, he knows that something big was about to come and this was connected to him.
Ding* You Have Died
Having chains inside his thoughts, his character in the game died which made him more suspicious.
'I'm sure of it! '
They said that if you felt something was wrong, believe in your instinct and do what it wanted to because if it felt that something was wrong, it meant something was wrong.
He went towards the counter and picked up something like a gun, this wasn't a typical gun that you could find anywhere, it could even kill an alien if a chance was found.
Having the gun in his hand, he sat up and hid under.
