Capítulo 4: Chapter Four: Time Up!
The prompt kept on popping up every time, not giving him a chance to choose other options. And unless he selects an avatar, he won't be allowed to play the dungeon fighter game. However, time was running out. Sooner or later, the thirty minutes duration will be over and if he doesn't log out, he'll be disgracefully ejected out of the capsule.
With no other options available, he eventually clicked on the random button through the vr game tab.
(Random)
(You have unlocked a new avatar; god)
(Check the information below to know the skills and abilities of the avatar)
'This is unbelievable! A god avatar! Holy shi- I can't believe this.'
Alex was so surprised 'cause during the years he spent playing vr games, he has never came across anything like this. None of the players who clicked on the Random button, have managed to receive a strong avatar like his. Neither has he seen any god avatar before. He must be the first person to unlock such an avatar.
[ Energy: 100 (Increase energy points by a hundred with 50 Cheat points. After usage, energy points refills at the beginning of every match) ]
[ ~ Skills ~ ]
[ Godly Speed: 20% (50% of this skill is faster than the fastest man on earth) ]
[ Godly Strength: 20% (50% of this skill is stronger than the strongest man on earth ]
[ ~ Power List ~ ]
[ Light blast (Uses 20 energy points per usage) ]
[ Time freeze (Uses 25 energy points per usage) ]
[ Other powers have been locked, increase energy points to unlocked more powers ]
With the usage of the time freeze power for about four times, his energy points will be used up, rendering him unable to use any more of his powers, all except from the skills he had.
'This Cheat System is really incredible. I, not only obtain an incredible avatar, but his powers are superior to what I used to use before. It is almost as impressive as my vampire avatar. Although it will do more once I'm able to unlock more powers.'
This however led him to the thought of how he would obtain Cheat points. So far, the System hasn't stated what he needed to do to receive cheat points. And somehow, he had a feeling that it wasn't going to be an easy task.
Still in his thoughts, Alex felt like things were going relatively too easy for him. It felt as if mother Luck had chosen to bless him specifically.
'Who on earth created this cheat system?' Did he do something good to someone in the past and the fellow had decided to reward him? But how? How is it possible for the person to reincarnate him except they were some type of god or a supernatural being of some sort.
'I don't know who you may be, but thank you for giving me a chance. I will use this gift to the best of my capabilities.'
At that moment, the usual notification tab which appears like a sneaky little kitten, had popped up in front of Alex.
[ Goal 2/2: Become a Superstar VR gamer ]
[ All goals have been revealed to the user, the rest of the notifications will now be displayed. Do note that more goals can be added to the goal tab anytime the user wishes ]
[ Cheat Points: 0 (CP received from playing games can also be used to level up skills in goal one and goal two. Completing quests will also lead to an additional increase in cheap points ]
[ ~ Quest Tab ~ ]
[Daily Quest: Have 100 people listen to your song in a day, even if it is just a chorus or a single note. Reward: 10 Cheat Points]
[Weekly Quest: Reach the Dungeon level 200-500 (middle rank) within a week, starting from today. Reward: 200 Cheat points]
[Side Quest:
1. Join a musical contest
2. Create a DFG team
10 CP reward each]
[Main Quests: 1~Become a Superstar in the music industry. 2~Become a Superstar in the Gaming career. Reward: Not yet determined]
It was just as he thought, he has been receiving all sort of skills and powers, making it seemed incredible and awesome. Yet, a part of him knew all won't be glittering like gold. It appears that he's right; gaining the cheat points to upgrade the skills is quite difficult and would be a heinous task to complete.
The daily quests which stated that he needed a total of 100 people to listen to his songs each day. How was that possible? If he remembers clearly, he's just a random kid who doesn't have a good singing voice, had no fans on social media, and hasn't been signed by any agency. Then how? How does the system expected him to complete such a task.
Moving on to the weekly quests tab. He looked at the information again and sighed with relief. If there's one thing he's certain about, that is reaching the top 500 solo ranking in the DFG. He just had to defeat monsters in one hundred different dungeons, his rank will shoot up to number 500 once that has been completed.
However, there's one downside to it, and that was money. He needed money to play the games, but that also can be solved if he keeps on winning. Real life money will be given to users for every wins they made in the game. Once a dungeon monster has been defeated, the first user to kill it will receive an upgrading crystal and real life money will be given to him. The higher the level of the dungeons, the more the money they will receive.
Alex took down the System and unlike before, the system message that will always display above his face no matter what he did, no longer popped up again.
"Phew, that's a relief. Let's check how many minutes I have left." He said as he clicked on the left tab of the game screen, where the duration of the pod he rent would be displayed.
(00:04)
Eyes widened with shock!
(00:03)
Minutes had turned to seconds!
(00:02)
(00:01)
Surprisingly, seconds had turned to nothing…!
(00:00)
Before he could attempt anything, the game screen had started turning into tiny particles, as the virtual world disappeared right in front him, he took off the Vr headset and could see the transparent lid of the capsule opening up.
Light footsteps approached from the side and a young lady appeared in front of Alex with a plain and unreadable expression written all over her face.
"Player Hydrogen, your rent time is up. If you wish to continue gaming, you can proceed to the counter and order for a suitable game duration of your choice." The lady stated.
'Like it can be done for free.' Alex said in his mind as he listened to the lady.
"You can follow me, I will lead you to the counter."
"Is that so? I can order more duration for free?" He opened his mouth wide in amazement, as he put on a fake act which the stiff-faced lady couldn't help but chuckle at.
"Mister, I think you've got me all wrong. The sordid issue of cash needs to be settled before you can proceed to the Disney of infinite gaming experience."
"English." Alex groaned with frustration as he exited the capsule.
"Would you like to order for more duration." The lady asked again which Alex nodded negatively to.
He has only 10 dollars left with him, which honestly couldn't be enough to rent any more capsules. Plus, his stomach has been churning all day, it felt as if he hasn't eaten for weeks. He had no other option but to leave the game shop and find something tangible to eat.
