Immortals exist.

Be it the Vampires of Transylvania, or the Daoists of Kunlun. Immortals always left indelible trails of their legends in the mark of history.

However, faced with the technological advancement of mankind, even the long-living felt the need to lay low and hide behind the curtains of society.

The consequences of getting discovered was something that Claude personally experienced during the chaos of World War 3. And with his constitution being uniquely different even among other types of Immortals, what followed after was a life of experiments and imprisonment.

.
.

Decades passed... People died and the war had ended.

Yet even after the experiments had stopped, no one was able to discover his existence that was trapped inside a World War 3 bunker.

Only after what seemed like an eternity later did the Heavens saw fit to free him from his cage. But to his surprise, what had greeted him was not the wasteland and nuclear winter he had expected the war to create.

No.

It was a vast expanse of extreme wilderness with overgrown trees and titan-like beasts roaming the Earth unobstructed. A land where humankind were once again at the mercy of nature.

"Humans... What have they done...?"

It was year 0, the mark of mankind, called Judgement Day, but it was not the coming of God’s wrath to execute those who sinned, but the mindless and deadly massacre of all humans.

After the nuke, the world went into a whirlwind of post-apocalyptic horrors. Mutants and death are everywhere. Nobody is left alive outside of Canyon Brooke. I have to go on a quest to figure out the truth and my childhood best friend will help me find the answers. I just hope that outside the walls of Canyon Brooke, there isn’t anything else out there. The truth about the nuke better is all lies because I don’t want to believe that scientists could actually be trying to manipulate people’s genes so they could develop powers.

Hades was happy to find his family and decided to leave this place with Delia.
The city was filled with danger, with more zombies than on the campus. If they were surrounded by zombies, they'd be killed.
"We need to leave this place. I'll teach you how to kill zombies. At the same time, we'll search the building and get food and a car."
They couldn't leave the city without a car.
Even with Hades' current strength and speed, it had taken him a long time to travel from the campus to this apartment.
As he spoke, Hades changed clothes, put on shoes and grabbed his backpack.
Hades thought that he had to train Delia.
He knew that he wasn't omnipotent and there were countless zombies out there.
He had to make Delia stronger, so that she would be able to face danger on her own in the future.
Hades had a deep understanding of what the Apocalypse was like. It was filled with schemes and suppression.
Powerful people had to think of ways to survive in the Apocalypse.
The government had collapsed and the laws and rules were no longer binding.
In this era, people no longer trusted each other and only lived according to the most basic survival rules.
Trust was a rarity. Only people with weapons and food could survive.
But even though zombies had appeared and the human civilization was in danger, humans still looked for opportunities to oppress their own kind to show off their superiority over others.
Conquering and possessing were the most basic ambitions and desires in humans. They had been infinitely magnified in the post-apocalyptic world!
Delia went to the wardrobe and took out a set of tight leather pants, which accentuate her shapely legs.
She then put on a top tank and a leather jacket, which made her look slim and graceful.
She looked exquisite and attractive after putting on the leather jacket and leather pants.
Stepping into a pair of small military shoes, she looked like a queen if she had a whip in her hand.
Hades took out a Japanese-style long knife from the treasure chest and handed it to Delia.
Delia also took it familiarly since she had learned Japanese saber fighting in her school's club.
Hades knew about this.
With this saber, Delia could deal with ordinary zombies.
"Is there a garage here? We need a car."
"There's an SUV. It's very sturdy."
Hades nodded and went to the underground garage.
A powerful and big off-road vehicle was there with wheels as high as 1.5 meters.
It could travel on rough terrain and even knocked off zombies. This was the most useful vehicle in the post-apocalyptic world.
Of course, its gas consumption was huge.
Hades had mastered the driving skill. Getting into the car, he drove it out of the gate.
The neighborhood was very quiet. No zombies could be seen, as if it was an empty city.
Only the roaring of the powerful motor of the SUV could be heard as it race on the street.
Through the window, they saw six zombies wandering outside.
The zombies were drawn over by the sounds of the SUV.
Bang! Bang!
Hades didn't slow down and directly raced toward the zombies.
This was the first time Delia felt such an impact in the car, and her heart beat wildly.
But Hades looked unruffled at the sight.
The Apocalypse had come, and no one could escape it.
When he was in school, Hades had already killed countless zombies. So he felt nothing as he drove over them.
This strange and cold world had transformed, but it had also killed many people, old or young, men or women.
The world had changed no matter people wanted or not.
Hades was able to survive because of the support of the system. Otherwise, he would have died yesterday afternoon.
With the system coming out of blue, he must live well and achieve something.
As Hades made the vow in his heart, Delia had recovered from her shock.
Hades stopped the car and the zombies immediately surrounded the car. They looked at Hades and Delia with empty eyes.
With grayish-white skin and dark teeth, they roared at Hades and Delia.
They pounded on the windows, wanting to eat the people in the SUV.
"There are only six of them. Kill them. Don't get hurt!"
Hades had drawn the zombies over to train Delia. She must kill those zombies herself and he wouldn't help her unless her life was in danger.
"Ah? You want me to kill them?"
Delia was stunned, but then she realized that she would do it sooner or later.
It was inevitable.
Delia gripped the Japanese saber tightly and took a deep breath. Her chest heaved up and down as she braced herself.
She had seen such scenes on television and in movies. Women could fight zombies as fiercely as men.
In fact, they were even more vicious sometimes.
In Resident Evil, women were extremely powerful.
Now, it was Delia's turn to go to the battlefield.
Just as Delia was getting ready, six zombies attacked at the same time, breaking the windows.
Bang!
The window glass shattered into pieces, scattering all over the ground.
After the glass shattered, the six zombies ignored the shards on the ground and charged towards Delia with fangs and claws.
With pitch-black fangs, they pounced like wolves seeing delicious food after being starved for a long time.
Delia jumped out of the SUV and stood in the center of the zombies.


Pick up [All Attribute]shard *1, acquiring [The Evolver] [The Psychic]. Pick up [Pulse Pistol] shard *1, (1 l 1), the maximum amount of shard acquired. Pick up [The Dragonslayer] shard *1, (3 l 3), the maximum amount of shard acquired. Pick up [Smart Battle Car] shard *1 (10 l 10), the maximum amount of shard acquired... Traveling to the apocalypse, he could become stronger with the shards. In the apocalypse, where zombies and mutated beasts were rampant, people struggled to survive and hide. Hades, however, tracked every single zombie's location. Hades would eliminate any zombie he came across. Driving a mobile base and picking up shards, he lived an extremely comfortable life in the days of the apocalypse.


Dustin lay back in the seat and watched the station recede from view.  The old programming in the escape pod had them about to jump back through space to Earth.  Olivia lay beside him, in her own chair, finally calmed down from their flight through the halls of the station.  It had taken everything they had to keep up with the AI robot as it zoomed through the halls to this ship.
He still wasn't sure if everything the man in crystal had told him was true, but it was too late now.  The countdown to their jump ended, and the screen in front of them became a blur.  Stars disappeared and he closed his eyes to keep from getting dizzy.  When he opened them again, he was surprised to find himself in a debris field.  Earth loomed before them, large, and beautiful.
"I never thought I would actually live to see it," whispered Olivia, as Dustin took over the controls.
"It looks like the station that was in orbit has been blown up.  I wonder if anyone's still alive down on the surface?" he wondered.
"I hope so.  I miss people.  Not that being with you isn't great," she turned to look at him, then away in embarrassment.
"Don't worry, you're a great lay, but I'm sure other girls will appreciate me more."
"Wait, what!"
He chuckled at the scandalized look she threw him.
After a moment of silence, she asked, "Do you think we should return to our human forms, so that when we come out of the ship, people don't try to shoot us?"
Glancing down at himself, he sighed.  The thought had occurred to him, but he had been holding off on suggesting it.  He greatly enjoyed all of the abilities he had acquired.
"I suppose it wouldn't hurt to take the form of a human.  We could still keep our abilities, and with the PED's we could always just change if we needed to."
"I plan to keep the crystal plates under my skin so no one can shoot me."
"That's a great idea!" he said, smiling as he started to focus on what he was doing a bit more.
The cities were leveled in some war.  Green covered everything, and like in those movies of post-apocalyptic times, animals fled their ship.
"I guess if there were any survivors, we're going to have to search for them," Dustin said, unstrapping himself.
"No need, they found us," Olivia said, touching his arm.
Looking up, Dustin saw a group peering out at them from through some tree branches, holding makeshift weapons and dressed in furs.
"Well, this aught to be fun."

Dustin needed to evolve to survive on this hostile alien planet.  If he can survive a year, he'll be released, free and clear.  Unfortunately, no one's ever done that before.
And it's not looking like he will either...

Check out the sequel:
Evolutionary Convict

It follows Dustin as he tries to find a home with Olivia, but everything still seems to be out to kill him...

Bick, who was tied up, kept cursing himself in his heart. I've long known that this is a wasteland that completely obeys the laws of the dark forest, and I've vowed not to be a good person anymore. Why am I so obsessed with beautiful women? Now I'm done for!"
He had long abandoned that little pink fantasy of his. No matter how much sperm entered his brain, he would wake up at this time.
However, the way this beauty that highly resembled Kate Upon from the other world tied him up seemed very familiar. It had appeared in many of the San Fernando Valley movies that Bick had seen.
Unfortunately, most of the people tied up in those movies were female leads!
Until Bick was tied up firmly enough, Kate could not believe that it would be so easy.
The guy in front of her looked quite strong, but she did not expect him to be so weak.
After being stunned for a moment, Kate began to carefully search Bick.
Looking at the two small, soft hands continuously moving around his body, Bick had the urge to cry.
This girl was really too careful, she did not even go easy on the private parts. And because it was easier to hide things here, he was given special care, and his groins were searched very carefully.
Looking at the soft hands fiddling with his little caterpillar for a long time, Bick was so ashamed that his blood surged again.
Although he knew that this wasn't the time to think about those things, his body was very well-behaved.
After all, a virgin couldn't afford to be hurt. Sometimes, if the pants were worn too tightly, it would be inexplicably hard.
Not to mention, being skillfully tied up by a great beauty and then fiddled with his lower body.
If it wasn't hard, then it would be strange!
Especially when Bick saw the beautiful woman licking his tongue while staring at him?
Bick's little brother was so bloodshot that he almost shot a blank.
However, immediately after, Bick felt a chill in his heart.
He didn't think that the beautiful woman in front of him was suddenly on a whim and wanted to have sex with him.
And just like in the movies he had seen before, lick the corner of her mouth and gave him a gentle and skilled oral sex.
The person who had searched him just now was definitely looking for food and water. It was definitely not to take advantage of him.
If their identities were switched, the possibility of taking advantage of him would be higher.
"What should I do? What should I do? She can't find any food. Would she eat me?" Bick broke out in cold sweat. His heart was filled with all kinds of horrible scenes.
It should be known that the world Bick lived in before he transmigrated was still peaceful. The world was also rich in resources.
At the very least, most of the people in most regions could fill their stomachs.
However, even so, there were still perverts who liked to eat human flesh. In some primitive forests and islands, there were still cannibals living there.
Now, in this post-apocalyptic wasteland, there would probably be more people who would eat human flesh, right?
Bick actually still had food. Not to mention the ten Mcdonald's meals he had gotten from signing up these past few days, he still had five or six left after activating the system for the first time.
However, these meals were all in the system space.
On one hand, it was a long journey in the desert, so he would have less weight on his body. People who had traveled on foot should have this kind of common sense.
On the other hand, the system space could maintain the state of an object. No matter when a hamburger or french fries were taken out from the system space, they would be steaming hot, as if they had just come out of the pot.
As for iced Coke, it was better preserved in the system space than in the freezer. Not only was the temperature constant, the carbon dioxide in it would not run away. Drinking it at any time was the best taste.
Moreover, the system space was infinite. No matter how many things could be put in it.
The only problem was that the items that could not be signed in could not be put in.
However, this also solved too many problems for Bick.
After all, he could sign in every day, and the number of things he could get was not certain.
For example, if he did not have the system space for ten Mcdonald's packages, it would be difficult for Bick to bring them across the desert.
With such a useful system space, there was naturally no reason for Bick to bring any food and water with him.
But, what should he do now?
If the beauty in front of him didn't find any food and water on him, would she be so thirsty that she would skin him and break his bones?
Drink human blood, eat human flesh, and so on.
Speaking of which, being eaten by such a beautiful woman, would feel just as bad as being eaten by a zombie.
Bick's death plan was to wait until he was 70 or 80 years old. He would be surrounded by his children, grandchildren, and even lay on the velvet bed with his eyes closed.
He would be able to accept any accidents that happened to him in his 40s or 50s, or he would die in a hospital bed due to a sudden illness.
Then, he would be held a standard funeral by the priest and buried on the Cross Tombstone.
Among all the ways of death, being eaten was definitely not included.
No matter if it was a beauty, a zombie, or some other random thing, it would not go into anyone's stomach.
"Is this how you treat your savior? I saved you out of kindness, but in the end, you repaid my kindness with enmity and tied me up?" Bick's tone was full of resentment.
If this beautiful woman really wanted to eat him up, then he wouldn't be able to defend himself now. He could only use his words to gain some moral advantage.
Although, talking about morality in the wasteland world was a bit extravagant.
Bick also made a heavy note in his heart. In the future, no matter what, he couldn't let down his guard even a little.
As expected, Bick discovered that the beautiful angel-like woman in front of him didn't have any change in expression. There wasn't any guilt or embarrassment.
In fact, when Kate realized that Bick did not have any food or water on him, she was already shocked.
Did this guy really use the last of his water to save her?
Or was it that rare ice-cold drink that was very precious in the wasteland.
It would be fake if she was not moved, but Kate did not want to let her emotions out.
Moreover, Kate had not tasted that drink even before the start of the Apocalypse War.
She was very sure of this. After all, such a unique and beautiful taste would never be forgotten.
Before the Apocalypse War, Kate had only been born into a middle-class family.
However, with her looks, there was no shortage of wealthy suitors. After she signed on as a Victoria's Secret Model, she had attended many big events.
However, she had never drunk such a drink before.
This could only be explained as this drink was invented on the wasteland after the end of the World War.
And to be able to invest manpower and material resources to develop a new drink while the majority of people were still struggling to survive.
What kind of powerful force would be able to do this?
At the very least, such a force would definitely not lack food and drink. Moreover, they would be able to maintain stability in the wasteland where mutated beasts and zombies roamed freely!
Perhaps, he was from the legendary Northern Federation, and heard that there was a very powerful force there, and that it could maintain stability and prosperity.
Perhaps, he could use this guy to help him find his sister?
Thinking of this, Kate asked tentatively, "Are you a noble of the Northern Federation?"


After transmigrating over, Bick had activated a login system in a post-apocalyptic world.

There was a variety of rewards whenever he logged in every day.

Food: from McDonald’s set meals to gourmet food cooked by Michelin star chefs.

Weapons: From bolt-action rifles to Star Destroyers that rampage through the stars.

But those were just the basic rewards.

Enigmatic creatures such as beautiful vampiric ladies and golden dragon mounts could be obtained through logins too!

Most importantly, consecutive logins were rewarded by huge gift packs!

Weekly, monthly, seasonal, yearly... the more Bick logged in, the more rewards he gained.

There were mysterious rewards during festivities too!

While everyone struggled to survive in the post-apocalypse, Bick was feasting and drinking away.

"You were a global star? Was she a famous international model? Look at you people going hungry... want a hamburger?"

"What?! A mutant behemoth is attacking?"

Bick snapped his fingers, and a squadron of F-22s that blanketed the skies bathed it in missiles.

"He enslaved an army of several hundred thousand survivors to attack me? Emily, go turn him to your blood slave!"

Turning into bats that blotted out the skies, the vampiric lady charged towards the enemy's base.

In an instant, every enemy was reduced to ashes without the power to retaliate!

Thanks to the help of his login system, Bick was living easy, comfortable, and elegant days in the post-apocalyptic world.

The login system was that delightful!

In his previous life, Yang Tian was in F City which was also under attack. The number of mutated beasts and otherworld creatures within the city was much more than the countryside. To begin with, just the number of rats within the sewers were countless. After the rats mutated, they turned into a terrifying force.

Yang Tian remembered that a Rank 6 Rat King had appeared from the sewers of F City, controlling many mutated rats. It not only targeted humans but also otherworld creatures as well. However, the Rat King did not die because of humans, but from offending a Lord Rank Steel Wing Bug. The Steel Wing Bug King controlled all the insects within F city and sent them underground to wipe out all the mutated rats living there. The Rat King also turned into food for the Steel Wing Bug King in the end.

For people like Hu Jun and his classmate that had just awakened their abilities, they were classified as Rank 1 Lifeforms. After that was Rank 2, Rank 3… to Rank 7. After Rank 7, was Lord Rank, Epic Rank, Legendary Rank, God Rank.

Yang Tian was a Legendary Rank Beast Tamer in his previous life and was also the number one Beast Tamer of the Celestial Empire. In terms of global ranking, Yang Tian could also be placed in the top three.

However, no one would have expected that a Legendary Beast Tamer, would die inside a dark mountain cave.

Yang Tian relied on a Rank 3 Beast Tamer's inheritance to step by step clawed his way up before he obtained the power of a Legendary Beast Tamer. However, what exactly did he experienced and went through in between, no one knew.

By the time everyone saw Yang Tian again, he was already a Legendary Beast Tamer. Under him, was the powerful Bone Dragon, terrifying Death Knight, huge Sky Reacher Bear, strange Six-Wing Devil Snake… and all sorts of other powerful monsters. When everyone thought that a messiah had appeared, he raised his butcher knife and destroyed one city after the other. No matter if they were human or otherworld lifeforms, they would all be massacred by Yang Tian.

Within a day, Yang Tian extinguished five cities. From then onwards, all human forces viewed Yang Tian as a poisonous tumor which they constantly wanted to eliminate. The otherworld lifeforms as well, have blacklisted Yang Tian, placing him under the list of Must-Kill individuals.

However, being a Legendary Beast Tamer, how were they able to easily kill Yang Tian? Simply the creatures that he has tamed was enough to deter anyone from thinking of finding trouble with Yang Tian.

The humans knew that Yang Tian started a massacre, yet no one knew why he did that.

In this life, I will kill everyone who had harmed me.

Night descends, the dangers during the night was also much higher than in the day, many creatures would only start their activity at night. During the night, Yang Tian was also more cautious than usual.

Yang Tian first kept the meat that he sundried in the day, most creatures that forage at night have a keen sense of smell. Meat jerkies would emit some amount of fragrance, so to be safe, it was best that he stores them away.


Food was indispensable during the Post-Apocalyptic Era and Yang Tian had only eaten a bit of bug meat the entire day. He had consumed quite a bit of stamina during the fight with the Acid Bugs. Therefore, while keeping the meat jerkies, Yang Tian also ate a few pork jerkies to replenish his stamina.

During the night, the mutated pig was also on full alert. Animals possessed the ability to sense danger and the mutated pig knew the dangers of the night. It kept itself on peak condition in preparation to face any dangers that might appear.

The manor has a five-meter wall surrounding it, in the later part, this wall would certainly not be enough to block the attacks of otherworld creatures. After he becomes a Beast Tamer, he needs to tame a powerful Vine-Type plant and use it to protect the manor.

He could also… borrow the power of the manor.

Yang Tian's manor was not an ordinary one during the Post-Apocalyptic Era. Not only will humans obtained abilities after interacting with the blood rain that would fall on the third day of the Post-Apocalyptic Era. Some famous landmarks and structures would also experience a change. The Pigeon Nest of B City, for example, will turn into an assembly point for flying creatures. One of these creatures was the Purple Crystal Winged Insect. Despite being an entity from the Insect World, the Purple Crystal Winged Insect was not controlled by it.

Otherworld creatures would normally be under the control of the world they came from. However, otherworld creatures that appeared in these special places would not be affected by their homeworlds, let alone following their commands.

And Yang Tian's manor belonged to such a type of special construct, the manor in his previous life had turned into an assembly point for plant creatures. The one that occupied the manor was an ordinary Rank 3 Creeper Plant, but after it occupied the manor, it managed to reach Epic Rank within a short period. The manor also became the only assembly point for plant creatures and one of the peak forces during the Post-Apocalyptic Era.

After Yang Tian became a Legendary Beast Tamer in his previous life, he managed to attack and occupy an assembly point as well. That assembly point was able to summon creatures, turning him into a type of summoner, all creatures that were summoned through that assembly point would be under his control. The strength of the beings summoned would be based on the mental power of the summoner.

Yang Tian had tried summoning but found out that the assembly point was only able to summon up to Epic Rank creatures. In the end, Yang Tian gave up on summoning creatures. He had wanted to recapture his manor, but human forces and otherworld lifeforms have started to restrict all of Yang Tian's progress.

In the end, Yang Tian gave up on the assembly point as well.

After being the public enemy of the Celestial Empire, he would become an easy target whenever he settled at one place. Compared to defending the Assembly Point, he would rather roam around the land alone.

However, in this life, Yang Tian urgently requires the assistance of the manor. He was no longer a Legendary Beast Tamer, he needs the manor's ability to strengthen himself.

Flap Flap Flap

A series of flapping sounds were heard coming from the sky.

Nightwalker Bat

A creature that lives in groups and mutated from bats of Earth. During the day they would hide inside their cave, only coming out at night to forage food. Their favorite food was human flesh and blood. Therefore, humans were always their first choice when they were out foraging.

Nightwalker bats are Rank 1 mutated beasts, their attacking skill is Disorienting Soundwave. Once struck by a Disorienting Soundwave, you will experience a long period of disorientation, easily becoming food for the Nightwalker Bat. Also, as they move in a group, even Rank 3 creatures would not dare to clash with them.

Yang Tian immediately retrieved a bottle of coke and poured it over himself. Coke was very effective at hiding the scent of the body, just that this method was slightly too extravagant.

The Nightwalker Bats flew passed the manor, heading towards another place. Yang Tian sighed in relief, with his current abilities, only death awaits him if he got entangled with those Nightwalker Bats.

Just as Yang Tian sighed, a scream was heard outside the manor.

"Ahhhh"

Yang Tian was able to notice who they were. It was the students from earlier on, they did not leave but hid somewhere near the manor instead.

They originally did leave, but when they saw the terrifying creatures roaming outside, they shrunk back and returned. Even though Hu Jun and Lee Si Kai have awoken abilities, they still did not dare to face those huge creatures.



They had always assumed that the school would send rescue once they noticed that they were missing. However, they did not know that the school's current situation was likely even worse than them.

The Nightwalker bats became reapers that harvest their lives, their blood-curdling screams could even reach Yang Tian who was inside the manor.

Not even a ripple appeared within Yang Tian's heart, this situation was simply too common during the Post-Apocalyptic Era.

Also! hold your hats, I made resolve to post more often, which might mean more episodes during course of week.

Humans aren't at top of the foodchain anymore. There is a new predator and we are its prey.

Chapter 2 : WTF? 

He woke up in a desert. It was far too real to think it was a dream. This was different, the wind, the heat, the sand under his feet, the red dice in his hand. 

What the… ?

He started to panic, tried to find a logical answer. He was still wearing his pyjamas. He felt the dice in his hand and looked at it. Was it some kind of joke ?

He yelled.


"Heeeeey ! Anyone here ?!

Of course nobody answered. He started to walk aimlessly. 

Time passed, and the scenery started to change. Remains of building appeared, he wandered inside some of them unable to find any clue about where he was.

"Come on ! What kind of cliche post apocalyptic setting is this ? 

He joked about it cause it was the only thing his reason told him to. It was the only thing to do to avoid the fear that grew. He watched his share of post apocalyptic movies, read books, mangas, played games that all had this kind of background. He was no chosen one, no road warrior and even less the only (supposed to be) heir of some deadly martial art. His chances of survival were low. He was a below average 30 yo man, that spent most (all) of his free time watching shows or playing video games. He had no skill or no particular knowledge.

"Meeting a fellow human certainly won't be a good thing. 

He already pictured himself chased by some kind of biker gang and enslaved, spending the rest of his short lifespan whored and beat around. 

He needed a weapon but everything had long been scavenged. Even the road sign had been taken away, the only thing left was concrete. 

Water would soon be a problem to. Was he going to die like that? Dehydrated in the middle of a ruined city? For how long had he been there already? 

"Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!

He remember the dice in the palm of his hand, realizing he was holding it so strong his hand went numb. 

"It has to be it! 

Wishing the hardest he could he threw the dice in a backhand. 

"Do something! 

Of course nothing happened. 

It's not the good words. It has to be something else. 

He tried again and again, trying everything he could think of with different gestures. Out of breath he realized that was most certainly how the common crazy people of those worlds all started their career. 

He wanted to cry out of despair but water was an expense. He wasn't sure it really had and effect, but still he clenched his teeth and pummeled the ground finding himself enough energy to throw another tantrum. 

A quick noise made him jump. He looked around but couldn't see anything. He grew scared, thinking of all the noise he made. He sat down and took a deep breath, trying for the last time to find any sense in this. 

***
Time passed, long minutes and hours. He kept on wandering in the desert. He wanted to die and figured it would be the quickest way. Problem was he wasn't feeling thirsty or hungry, even if the sun was high in the sky he didn't felt any sign of dehydration. Not the slightest headache. 

Come on, is this hell ? For all I know I could have died in my bed, and this would be the afterlife ? 

He looked at the dice again. What was the message here ? He raised his eyes at the deep blue sky. 
That's when he saw the giant pillar falling from the sky.

***

As long as he remembered he never was able to cover such a distance running. Like food or water, stamina wasn't a problem anymore. 
To his eyes it was nothing more than a proof of his status as a ghost. 

As he grew closer he started to feel the vibrations in the air. The sand was shaking, as if a giant worm was gonna burst out of the desert.
He smiled remembering how you were supposed to run to avoid catching the worm attention, "in a unstructured way according to random sequences".
He stopped running 300 meters away from the giant structure. 
It looked like a giant column. A giant column that was slowly digging it's way in the ground. 
It sounded familiar and he was too shocked to move.
That was how the main villain of their game drained the planets of whatever was needed to fuel what must have been his main goal. 
He got close to it, remembering the description the GM made of it. The runes crafted on a pitch black metal that seemed to be the only component, the slow pace of the drilling.  He remembered what happened to the planets and everyone on it at the end of the process. 

"What the… Oh come on man, what am I supposed to do?

He touched it, the runes lightened for a while, but that was all. 

"Some kind of sequence huh? With not a single clue? Really?

He touched all the runes he could for a while before taking the dice out of his pocket. 
That was the only thing game related, as he approached the dice from the pillar the runes spread themselves and the building opened. 
He laughed in relief.
It was a door size space. 
A space that stayed in front of him even it the drill kept on turning going deeper into the ground. 
There was no other options.
He went inside. 

***

Everything was dark, so dark he couldn't see anything. Aimlessly he started walking. Around him he felt the drill moving. 

He had to think, remember everything that was game related. He took a deep breath to gain composure. 

Those things were used by the main villain to drain the worlds from their energy or whatever.
Once the drilling/draining complete, it was supposed to return to the main villain HQ, where everything would be extracted and processed. And ? 

And nothing. 

They didn't go far enough for him to know anything more. That was clearly an end game thing. Still he knew one thing : taking the trip all the way was a very bad idea, there was no such place where stowaway were welcomed. He was fucked. 

"Come on! Why don't you kill me right now uh? 

As if someone answered a countdown appeared on the wall. 
In a few minutes the drilling would be over. 

"How is it supposed to help me? Thank you! Thank you for letting me know when I'll be dead! That's a relief! 

He punched the wall and hurt his hand. 

He sat down and waited for the numbers to reach 0, Accepting his fate. 

I'm so dead. So, so, so dead. 

The drilling stopped at the end of the countdown, only a few seconds later the pillar started to move. It was the same as if he was in an elevator going up. Then the light went on. 

He looked around there was no machinery, no nothing he was just sitting in an empty white room. 

Again time passed, the elevator feeling changed into an airplane one.

He walked in circles, thinking of any option he had.

Bang! 

A giant shock projected him to the ceiling. Something had just hit the pillar, and the pillar was now falling. Falling in space? Was that even possible? His insides were shaking. The fall seemed endless, the changes of pressure made him lost consciousness.

Leo could finally spotted a black dot in the distance, as it slowly grew larger and larger as it gets nearer towards him.
Until the aircraft is now hovering just near him, and it slowly landed at the spacious land beside him as a small billow of wind blew when it was just about to touch down on the ground.
And the troops walked out of the ship in two files and stood at attention before Leo.
""Sir!!""
The soldiers struck their chest with their fist as a salute.
"Good! You guys are finally here, but you wouldn't get any rest yet! We still have one more thing to do before you guys can have your beauty rest!" 
Leo laughed, as his eyes glinted with anticipation as he looked at the thirty elite soldiers in front of him, standing before him with disciplined manner.
"Board the ship and tell the pilots to follow me!" Leo said as he turned towards Captain Richards.
"Get in the ship soldiers!"
The soldiers immediately headed back inside the Pelican, as Captain Richards followed last.
Leo then turned around, as he also boarded [Winter] that has been sitting behind him the entire time.
[Welcome Back, Commander]
Gideo's voice immediately rang throughout the ship the moment Leo stepped inside. He then sat at the Commander's seat, and ordered, "Set course to Sanchez Mira, Gideon"
[Setting course to Sanchez Mira..Destination Confirmed]
Then the [Winter] softly buzzed as it slowly took off in the air, and flew with moderate speed towards their destination, so that the Pelican behind them could keep up with it.
And with that, two aircrafts that haven't been witnessed by all of mankind, flew towards an unsuspecting survivor camp full of survivors, living with hardship during this post apocalyptic era.
*****
And Leo were right, there is really a huge survivor camp in the middle of the town Sanchez Mira, surrounded by walls made of different materials.
And in the south west part of a wall, a group of armed survivors, all of them armed with different kinds of weapons, like bows, wooden or metal spears, or they're just our former home tools like long butcher knives, or axes.
"Those soldiers were really arrogant when they came here, good thing the boss taught them a lesson!" a man with piercing in his nose and ears laughed with disdain in his eyes.
"You got that right, but we shouldn't still underestimate them, after all, they have more guns than ours and even though we have five power users on our side. We shouldn't still looked down at them, they are still soldiers after all, and with their increased in numbers and weapons, they have become even more of a threat!"
"You worry too much brother, they only have two power users with them, they wouldn't even last long against us! And don't forget that our group also had a share with those weapons!"
All of them started laughing as they made fun of the soldiers, while the only person who's able to see the bigger picture in their current situation can't help but shake his head towards.
The man who is around mid thirties walked to a corner and looked at the distance with a bitter smile on his face, and beyond the wall that they're standing on, is the former town of Sanchez Mira, buildings turned to rubble, burned down houses and buildings.
The place had literally became the image of a post apocalyptic town, and it was only something that we could only see in movies or dramas before, and now it became a reality for all of us.
"Huh? What the heck is that!?"
Someone suddenly shouted, that the attention of the others immediately towards that person, and they saw him pointing at something, they also turned towards the direction where their companion is pointing at.
*Gasp!*
All of them gasp in surprise and fear! After all, they just saw two unknown ships flying towards their direction!
"Aliens! Those are aliens! I've never seen an aircraft like that before! Sound the alarm quick!"
*Clang!* *Clang!* *Clang!*
Their group were not the only ones who spotted the two unknown ships flying towards them, as they also rang the warning bells in panic.
The ringing sounds of multiple ringing at the same time, rang through out the wall camped, as the survivors immediately descended into panic as they immediately hid inside their homes or inside the other buildings.
Armed survivors and soldiers immediately ran towards the wall, where they saw two unidentified flying ships hovering in the air just a few hundred meters away from them.
Some of them even thought that they were really aliens, as the largest one among the two does really look like one.
"What's happening!?"
"Move! Get out of the way!"
Two groups started yelling as they ascended the stairs towards the ramparts of the wall from two different set of stairs.
One of them is an old man and a young woman wearing military uniform and the other group is five people wearing civilian clothing, and both sides glared at each other with disdain in their eyes, except for the old military man, around early fifties as he just stared at the two ships floating in the air in front of them.
Inside [Winter].
"I told you we would show up with a bang!"
Leo being young, started laughing like an idiot, as he observed the look of disbelief and horror on the faces of the people looking at him from below.
And those soldiers who could hear through the intercom of the Pelican had dumbfounded expressions on their faces, as they can't help but finally remember that their leader is actually still a young man.
[Come on, let's go down!]
Then the Pelican slowly descended at the messy streets, while the [Winter] slowly hovered down and stopped just twenty meters from the ground.
*Thud!* *Thud!* *Thud!*
When they saw the soldiers disembarking from the Pelican, all of those who had good eyes, immediately narrowed their eyes.
"Those are certainly not ordinary soldiers"
"I've never seen ships like those, but I've not seen an armor like that!"
"Who told us that they were aliens!? They are clearly humans!"
"How do you know that they're humans when they're covered from head to toe!? Is it because you saw that they have one head, two arms and two legs!? If it's that, then you're an utter idiot!"
"F*ck you, you damn military dogs!"
The appearance of the Alpha Team surely caused a huge commotion on the wall, but the leaders at both side just ignored them, and they put their focus on the still hovering [Winter].
Then they finally saw a silhouette of a person jumping down the ship, while the ship above them slowly vanished like it went invisible.
*Boom!*
Then a man in red armor dropped down on the ground.
"Eh?"
But then Leo suddenly staggered forward, breaking the serious atmosphere, and the Alpha Team just looked at him dumbfounded.
After all, Leo didn't expect that the ground where one of his feet landed on would actually collapsed immediately, causing him to stagger.
"Damn! That was so anticlimactic!"
Leo cursed as he steadied himself from that embarrassing moment.
"Hello there"
"I am Leo and…"
"Here to conquer you all"
