Chapter 701: Alien (End)
[Could that be fake? Am I blind? What the hell is wrong with the player’s score who ranked first on the official website?!]
Posted by: Madrid Is Incredible
[1475 points??? Holy sh*t! A mistake made by the system? The one in second place has only 360 points . This is only the first day of Proxy War . The powerful players of the three major guilds may not have finished their games yet . But his score insane!]

[It is said that the Proxy War quest’s difficulty is much greater than that of the ordinary quest . Many people failed their first game, as far as I know . Of course, they are the kind of agents that are not that strong . Their score should be around 70 . But 1475… Who the hell is this player with the name, Simon?]

[Simon is a newcomer . We met at the auction at the end of last year . At that time, he didn’t even know that he could team up with others to complete the game . ]

[Is that supposed to be a joke? How can a newcomer become so strong in less than half a year? This can no longer be considered growth . This is mutation!]

[I want to know more about him too . ]
Posted by: Professor
[Maybe someone else has the same name as him . I have seen three players with the name Ash . Anyway, we can come up with all kinds of random names for ourselves . ]

…
After the start of the Proxy War, this had been the hottest topic of discussion on most player forums .
The player with the name Simon had become the most discussed topic . Having obtained an unbelievable score in his first game, some people even suspected that he must have completed three games in a day .

The mechanics of the Proxy War’s dungeon differed from that of an ordinary game . Players were required to clear three games within 45 days . In theory, as long as the players did not need rest or recuperation, they could complete all three in one go .
Even if the score that Simon acquired was divided among three games, the figures garnered were still ghastly . And if this score had been obtained from a single quest, it would be even more mind-blowing . Simply put, even if this player called Simon did not participate in the second and third games, and he would still qualify for the next round of Proxy War .
Less than a day later, another player who went by the handle of ‘β’ scored over 1,000 points . And this time, someone happened to have just refreshed the list, indicating that just a few minutes ago, β’s score was, in fact, zero . In other words, β’s score had been acquired from a single game . This individual now placed second with a score of 1007 .
The third player on the leaderboard was not as mysterious as the first two . Pegasus was the current president of Silver Wing guild and holder of 3 Grade-B game items . He scored 872 points in the first game, and if it were not for the mysterious Simon and β, he should have topped the leaderboard by now .
It could be seen from this list that the gap in strength between the agents might be larger than most of the people imagined . For a game of the same difficulty, the few people at the top of the leaderboard and the other ordinary players were not on the same level .
Zhang Heng did not care too much about his ranking . On the contrary, Rabbit sent a text to Zhang Heng through WeChat and asked if he was Simon . After Zhang Heng admitted that he was, she stopped asking anymore . Perhaps, it was because she witnessed how Zhang Heng fought with the Sphinx and saved her . To her, Zhang Heng was the best player, and she wouldn’t be surprised even if he scored more than 1,000 points . After she got the answer she wanted, she happily proceeded to her homework .

After that, Zhang Heng also ran into Shen Xixi at school . It seemed Rabbit had told her that Zhang Heng was Simon, and she congratulated him when they met . On the other hand, Shen Xixi did not have the time to do the quest yet .
When she saw Zhang Heng, she hesitated and asked, “Do you remember them in 1810?”
“Yes . ”
1810 was the flathead man’s code name . He and his team participated in the previous Sphinx hunt . As agreed, they took away the stunned Sphinx with them .
“Their team had an accident on their way back,” Shen Xixi sighed .
“What do you mean by accident?”
“Someone attacked them . ”
“Who?”
A strange look flashed across Shen Xixi’s face . “Dumbledore,” she said .
“Who?” Zhang Heng wondered if he had misheard .
“Albus Dumbledore, Hogwarts’ principal in Harry Potter . ”
“I know who Dumbledore is,” said Zhang Heng . “The question is, why did Dumbledore attack them?”
“It must have something to do with that Sphinx . 1810 said that Dumbledore used a stun-spell on them when they crossed paths . ”
“That’s the spell from “Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire . ” The movie was still clear in Zhang Heng’s mind . “Did they become unconscious or frozen after the spell was put on them?”
“1810 said that the feeling was more like the kind of coma that followed an electric shock . After getting stunned, those that didn’t fall into a coma would enter a state of trance . They would lose the ability to move around and could only watch Dumbledore rescue the Sphinx from the trunk . ”
“That shouldn’t be a big deal,” replied Zhang Heng . “At most, the Sphinx would only carry a Grade E or F game item . ”
“That should be the case . However, after Dumbledore saved the Sphinx, he walked a few steps but suddenly stopped and turned back . ”
“Did he forget his wallet?”
“Unfortunately, that wasn’t what happened . After Dumbledore walked towards them, he carried the unconscious Yogurt with him . Oh, Yogurt is one of the two girls in their team . She was the smaller girl . She named herself with such a cute name because she likes yogurt . ”
“Dumbledore kidnapped her?”
“Yes . This incident angered 1810 and his team . They could not do anything to stop him . For the past week, they have been looking for… Dumbledore’s and Sphinx’s whereabouts . However, they never showed up afterward . ”
“…this experience is really magical,” Zhang Heng shrugged after listening .
“I know you, and 1810 started off on the wrong foot,” Shen Xixi said . “1810 is willing to apologize for his impolite behavior, and they hope that you can help them . ”
“Why me?”
“They saw your abilities that night, and your score in this Proxy War is outrageous . They consider themselves as independent players, and they are quite skillful . However, they are still rather ordinary, building no rapport with any of the major guilds . As for me, I do know a couple of elite players, but they have been quite busy with the Proxy War . I think you are one of those rare ones who completed the first game so quickly . By the way, they are willing to pay you with game items and game points if you help to rescue Yogurt . ”

Mortis Operandi 1- New Hire
Thank you for reading, I have to start with that. The feedback and encouragement from RoyalRoad users helped me finish my book. I left the unedited version up as I worked on editing and making it a little more polished. However the time has come for me to put it on Amazon and hopefully let other people read the story. If you have Kindle unlimited you should be able to read the story there. If you just want to order an ebook version you can do that as well. I should have a paperback version coming up. https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B07T46B4NM Again thank you for reading and helping me on this journey. It hasn't ended however, my second book which I'm hoping to do well enough that reading the first isn't completely necessary, is still being worked on here, https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/24562/mortis-operandi-2--terms-and-conditions . Any feedback, comments, even critism is welcome as I work on giving you the best version of my story. I'll leave the first two chapters up here, unless Amazon says otherwise. There should be enough differences to avoid issues though. THANK YOU! Thank you! thank you! __________________________________ Adventurers enter dungeons every day. Battling evil monsters, defying dangerous terrain, triumphing over devious traps... ... but none of them ever ask why? That arrow trap, who reloads it? The pitfall trap, who cleans out the bodies and sharpens the spikes? What if the grates get clogged, where will the blood and gore drain? When you are trying to study ancient lore or plan on conquering a kingdom, you don't want to worry about all that. You just want peace. Mortis Operandi is a different kind of company. One that celebrates diversity. One that celebrates value in individuals. With flexible pay and plenty of advancement opportunities, it is a company that knows its workers are it's most valuable asset. As they design, build, and install traps, rooms, obstacles, and repair they are a one stop shop. When a possible recall sets events into motion, the company must pivot in a new paradigm of full circle Dungeon service. The Goblin Eft No-toes has a solution that entwines ex-adventurer Elric into the business of death. *Note the above statements are forward looking statements. In no way do they promote or suggest that Mortis Operandi will project greater sales or revenue. Understand that investing in a company does involve some risks, and possibly much rewards.

Inside Metsys
Inside the universe of Metsys, life is chaotic, cruel and crazy. People with Stats have power and everyone wants to be a Player. Meet Corn, a slave who has no memory of most of his past and doesn’t know how most of the world functions. This doesn’t stop him from escaping the bonds of slavery by risking his life on a gamble. After all, he would risk everything for freedom and the right to be a mage. But how’s a scrub to learn Magic and get power? Why, join the magical under belly of the city, of course. And eat all the mana that he can get. Two Disclaimers: 1) This is a work of fiction. Any characters, places, organisations and everything else in this novel are fictional. Any resemblance between anything in this novel and the plane of reality we live in is purely coincidental. Was that a bit over the top and a wee bit unnecessary? Maybe. 2) This story features an antihero with a slight hint of villainy. So, sooner or later, it’s going to get dark. Very dark. Hence all the tags. If you are prone to be squeamish, this might not be for you. Well. You were warned. ;)
