As Leviathan walks towards the mine he realizes only and hour has passed since the crash landing, which mans in reality only a couple minutes have passed. While most people can only join the game in a few days, he will get over a year head start on them. Thinking about what the other people who have cabins are doing in the game he arrived at the cave entrance.

Looking at the dimly lit a feeling of foreboding washes over him causing him to hesitates for a moment, shaking his body to loosen up he descends into the ground. Every step he takes engulf him in darkness, soon the light from the world is but a glimmer in the distance. Taking a moment for his eyes to adjust to the dim light he continues moving down. Soon clunking noises and sounds of drilling enter his ears. After moving a bit further down the tunnel stops descending and leveled out into flat ground. Looking around the fairly open area he notices five doors in front of him, to the left and right are branching tunnels where the noise seem to be coming from. Walking to the leftmost door, he begins to lift his fingers to his head, hesitating slightly he puts his hand back down I need to get rid of this habit squinting at the room he concentrates for a while before being able to activates his power.

Int +1

Psi 18/21

Nodding his head in satisfaction he grabs the knob to open the door is Int supposed to be this easy to raise? How do I level up my other stats? Twisting the knob the door opens. The inside of the room is filled with a mountain of ores, walking towards the ore Leviathan grabs one from the stack.

Shadow Iron

“Is this stuff any good?” throwing the ore back into the pile he heads to the next door on the right. As he enters the room he sees that it too is filled with shadow iron, furrowing his brows he checks one room after another and notices they are all filled with shadow iron.

“With this much ore even if it's cheap, it will still be a lot of money” Massaging his head “What did I get myself into….some sort of space mob?”

Looking down the left and right tunnels Leviathan ponders for a moment before heading down the left path. As he travels forward the sounds become louder and louder, after a few minutes he sees more doors. Looking inside he sees more Shadow Iron piled Up, furrowing his brows he picks up his pace as he travels down the tunnel until he sees a copper frame robot holding a hand drill. Reaching for the gun in his holster he points it at the robot, hesitating for a moment he decides not to pull the trigger.

“Hello?” looking at the robot that doesn't seem to be responding to his presence he begins to back up before returning from the way he came.

A few moments later he exits the cave. Walking back towards B8 he sees that it is still trying to open the door.

“Master, there has been a slight development since you've been gone. It seems like the dead bodies outside the gate has started to attract animals.”

“Ok? Why does that matter?”

Turning its head to look at Leviathan “Master, the gates are still open”

Slapping his forehead he turns to look at the gate “Dammit, B8 why didn't you close the gate?”

“Master, I assume the controls to the gate are inside the ship, therefore I cannot close the gate until the door is opened”

“And what is your progress on opening the door?”

“Master, every moment I spend opening the door I feel like it's becoming easier, if I had to say about 65% complete”

Nodding his head he looks B8 up and down, seeing that the bullet holes are still there confirms it will not heal on its own, Status

“B8 your intelligence rose?”

“Master, I’m an AI, intelligence is the only thing that I can raise with the acquisition of new data without undergoing upgrades to my body, as all I really am is a program installed in your ring. But that is not to say that my intelligence cannot be upgraded as well, for example if Installed into a body whose abilities supersede my own.”

Opening his eyes wide he looks down at the ring on his thumb forgetting that it was even here, touching it with his other hand causes information to appear.

“Neat!” a smile forms on his face knowing for sure that B8 will be safe even if its current body is destroyed. Turning his attention back towards the gate his face begins to scrunch “Monsters” grabbing the laser pistol he pulls the trigger as he walks towards the gate. Putting his back towards the wall he begins to shimmy towards the opened gate. Peeking around the corner he sees three wolf like creatures eating the bodies left outside. The creatures had the body of a wolf but its mouth can be better described as that of an ant due mandibles that were ripping the flesh and bones from the corpse. Looking at the creatures a frown forms Leviathan’s face as he raises the gun to aim at one of the creatures, closing one eye to better aim, he releases the trigger.

The hum of the laser pistol and the steam from the burnt air are all that remains of the shot, in less than a second, faster than you can blink, one of the creatures was dead.

Basic Firearm skill acquired

The creature shot by the laser flops to the ground causing the other two to look around in a frenzy. Ducking back behind the wall Leviathan once again presses down on the trigger while hiding, hopeful to avoid detection.

*SCREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE* *SCREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE*

High pitched screams fill the area, turning to look at what's happening he sees the creatures yelling into the air. Concentrating on one of the creatures he uses his ability HELP! HELP! Eyes go wide as he realizes they are calling for help.

Waiting a couple more seconds for the gun to finish its charge he moves from behind the wall while raising the gun “HEY YOU FUCKERS” and at the same time he releases the trigger. With the hum of the pistol a hole is burned through another creature's body, dropping it to the ground. The last creature, finally seeing their assailant charges towards him.

Seeing the creature charging in his direction Leviathan pulls the trigger while at the same time turning on his heels and taking a step. One step, two step, three step, until he is in a full sprint. But those three slow steps cost him time, time for the creature to close the distance. Every step he took it he felt as though he could feel its breath on his neck. Ten seconds, that was all he needed to charge then gun, but only two has passed. Fear overwhelmed him as death approached him from behind a few hours in game and i'm already going to die? Remembering that it was just a game ease his fear as he hears the creatures clicking jaw right behind him. His steps momentarily became a little lighter as he realized death was unavoidable slowing his speed slightly.

Closing his eyes time seemed to stop as he waited for death I wonder if it's going to hurt, if I die will all my stats be reset? Well intelligence seem to be easy for me to level up, but I need to figure out the rest taking another step well I guess this is it, huh? Tears begin to well up in his eyes nonononono this may be a game, but what did I come here for! This game gave he a new hope, a chance to relive my life!, to realize “MY DREAM!” opening his eyes in a furry his foot smashes down into the ground propelling him forward ever so slightly I was the fastest! Swinging his arms at his sides he gnashes his teeth together, slamming his other foot into the ground his body assumes the form of a champion, the champion that shook the world, the fastest man alive.

Be it from sheer will of mind, or the perfect running technique honed by a man who once surpassed human limitations currently in a body superior to that of humans, the game answered his call. As the sounds of jaws close in on him a feeling of power overtook him, seeming to push him forward.

Only five seconds passed since the time he pulled the trigger, but fear no longer covers his face. A smile so cheesy and eyes brimming with hope, the eyes of the man who tied with the world fastest man at the age of 18, the man destined to be king.

As he ran he realized he was pulling further from the creature, taking a chance he turned his head, he was roughly six feet in front of the creature, and at that moment he realizes how close to death he really was.

After another step pain starts to shoot up his legs causing his eyes to go wide I don’t have the strength to run like this, my muscles are getting shredded looking down at the laser gun four more seconds biting his lip to overcome the pain in his legs he pushes forward, but his speed noticeably slows.

Feeling that the creature is gaining ground he makes a decision, as his right foot connect with the ground he transfers all his power into his ankle twisting it to turn left *crack* pain rushes up his leg, but he did it, he turned 90 degrees on his foot to try and shake his opponent.

-5

But he miscalculated, that sharp of a turn would have easily thrown off any pursuer causing it to slow down drastically to change direction, that is, any human pursuer, but this was a beast, a beast with the body similar to a wolf no less, this turn was nothing but a gift.

Leaping forwards the creatures mandibles circles around Leviathan’s waist before clamping shut, *crunch* A sickening sound is heard as his pelvis begin to shatter, blood poured out of his wounds as the jaws sliced through his flesh.

-35

The creature relaxed its jaws for a moment, gathering power to cleave this fool who disturbed its meal in two. As it was ready to finish its prey a storm of bullets rained upon its body, wincing in pain it dropped Leviathan from its mouth.

“Master, I am here to help” firing a volley of bullets B8 walks towards Leviathan.

Lifting his head from the ground revealing his bloodshot eyes he stares at the creature, lifting his hand shakily he releases the trigger.

The Pistol hums and the smell of burning flesh permeates the the air as the beast drops to the ground. Slamming his head back to the ground “B8 close that fucking gate!”

“Master, the door is about 80% complete” turning around B8 moves back towards the door.

Looking at his lower body still spilling blood he gnashes his teeth as he removes his backpack, taking out a shirt he got from the chest earlier in the dormitory he begins to wrap it around his waist to stop the bleeding. Removing a strap from the backpack he tightens it around his waist to apply pressure.

Lying down on his back he feels the pain in his ankle, legs, and waist as he stares into the sky “Hahahahahahaha!” laughing madly he covers his eyes with his hand “There are two sun! Two sun!!” removing his hand “What have I been doing till now?” furrowing his brow I’m not a front line fighter! I need to play to my strength. Taking a deep breath he releases his power to the maximum capacity. A feeling escapes from his body into the area of about 50 ft, so this is my limit?

Psi 0/21

Int +5

Psi 5/21

Looking towards the sky he release his ability in a straight line.

Hmm it seems like if I just use it towards one area it goes till I run out of Psi? And it seems like my Int increases around every 5 Psi I use, but when will I get diminishing returns?

A smile forms on his face as he passes out from the pain.
