《The Inhabitants》Chapter 10. Let's Play a Game
Advertisement
Inside the wardrobe, Lando could feel the toxic gas density in the room starting to rise. If the toxic gas in the mine starts the infection by the lungs, the toxic gas in the room is cleaner. The poisonous gas in the room works by contaminating the blood. This method is more difficult to realize before someone has symptoms. Fortunately, this had no effect on Lando.
During Lando's stay in the mine, he realized something else about his abilities. First, the body's metabolism is undergoing changes. Lando hadn't eaten for a few days because the supplies he brought only lasted 2 days in the mine, but he still felt energized as usual. He felt as if his body was absorbing some kind of energy from the surroundings. Unfortunately, Lando's stomach still felt hungry. He had to endure it for now.
Next is the improvement of lando's body system sistem. This is what makes Lando immune to the toxic gases of roasted coal. When the body understands the characteristics of the gas, it forms a system that automatically expels it from the body through the pores before any damage occurs. Of course, before his body understood the characteristics of the gas, Lando had to inhale it many times.
Lando realized that his ability was not only limited to regeneration, but rapid adaptation. Lando's physique improved so much only after swinging the pickaxe a few times. Both his brute strength and stamina were multiplied. In the past, it was impossible for Lando to walk while carrying heavy mining equipment and several bags of coal, but now he could easily do it.
Lando also felt his energy recovery had improved dramatically. In a state of exhaustion, he only needed a short rest to return to his best condition. That's the current condition of Lando who hasn't slept for about 4 days. Even so, Lando still felt like sleeping. Lando felt a heavy mental burden after not sleeping for several days.

When Lando felt unbearable drowsiness several people came into the room. Lando was surprised. Not much time had passed, but the guards had returned. He immediately took one of the cloths and covered his face. Lando sensed that something was wrong.
....
Some time ago, the confused Anderson started searching inside the main building. When he entered his room, he found some objects were not in the proper position. Especially his wooden box. Anderson found the little rope he used to tie the box was broken. That is, someone has tried to move it.
Anderson then ordered his men to spread out and look for strange things in all parts of the building. After a while, there was finally a call from his men. They found something strange in the guards' bedroom. One of their wardrobes wouldn't open even though it wasn't locked. Anderson laughed and walked over to the guards' bedroom.
"You two stay here!" Anderson's orders to 2 of his several dozen men. Then he led the others to enter.
...
Lando was still in the wardrobe. He held the door that was pulled several times from the outside. Lando realized he had been caught.
After several people pulled the closet door, finally Lando was pulled out. He looked around and there were about three dozen people surrounding him. One of them was Anderson, he ordered one of his men to take a chair for him. Anderson then looked at Lando with a smile.
"You're quite a brave, little thief. How about playing a game?" Anderson said looking at Lando whose face was covered.
Lando looked at Anderson and didn't say anything. Then someone came with a chair. Anderson sat in the chair and lit a cigarette.
"Let's play then, first one on one. Who wants to try?" Anderson said to his men surrounding Lando.

A man came forward. He has almost the same body size as Lando. He has no hair and oval face. He looked at Lando then turned to Anderson "Chief, let me try it"
Anderson responded by nodding his head, and the bald man walked over to Lando.
"Oh, that is Berend" said someone from the crowd to which the others responded.
"Yes, the new kid does have to show his ability"
"50 cents for the new kid!"
"Then my money for the thief"
"I choose the new kid"
"The thief's body is not bad, I choose him"
Then the gambling arena began. Lando stood up and prepared to face his opponent.

Making of a Genius [A Progression LitRPG]
What does it take to climb to the top of the academic ladder? Lexus came face to face with his mediocrity the moment he arrived at Cambridge University to study computer science. There was a ceiling that he could not overcome, an intellectual world that was unreachable. But if you give a chicken an eagle's wings, it will fly higher than you could ever imagine. And that was exactly what happened to Lexus: with the help of a system, he could make it big. Schedule:1 chapter per week (every Friday evening at 5:30pm GMT). The weekly schedule is to allow time for research and factual accuracy where required. Author's Note: The story is about a computer science student at university, gradually improving and embarking on the path to become a world-renowned genius-level expert with the help of a system. There'll be a lot of studying and academics, but imagine being the best in your year. Easily. At that point, academics stops being stressful and starts being fun, doesn't it? The initial chapters are heavy on mathematical detail, but I don't expect anyone to actually read through them thoroughly. It's fine to skim them or even skip them, but I hope you try to get a sense of the progress being made, and feel happy for Lexus when something 'clicks' inside his brain :) As the story progresses, later chapters will go into less depth into individual questions, though I aim to remain consistent in terms of scientific accuracy/feasibility. Welcome, and I hope you enjoy the story!
