《The Network》[Chapter 4] Survival
Advertisement
I continued to look at my [Health page] in bewilderment.
Am I going to die? Not because of the explosion. Not by fellow survivors. But because of the freaking air!
"What do I do! What do I d-"
A [Quest] has been initiated!
Thank God!
[Quest]: Survive in the [New world] for 2 days.
[Reward]: Selection between [Sword] [Spear] and [Bow and arrow].
W-what?
How am I supposed to survive for 2 days?
I will be dead in 12 hours!
Okay...okay...I have to calm down.
"...How do I get more [Health]?"
...
"...This isn't worki-
[Health] can be gained by increasing [Vitality]
"Okaay... How do I increase vitality?"
...
...Sigh
[Vitality] can be increased like any other stat. By gaining [Experience]
"How do I Get more [Experience] then!"
I barked through gritted teeth.
...
[Experience] is gained by defeating opponents, completing quests, and other [Restricted] means.
Finally...something I can work with. But now there's another unanswered question.
"[Restricted] huh...maybe I'll find out one day."
"Now... I already have a [Quest] but that is something that can only be achieved after I survive 2 days.
I only have 12 hours.
I don't want to do this but I guess I have to fight... monsters? Other humans? I don't know.
To be honest, It was my childhood dream to fight monsters like a hero...but in real life?... What if I encounter some sort of giant bug monster?
I shiver at the thought.
And to kill other humans is also out of the question; I don't like the sight of blood.
What do I do? This is hopeless.
I sit on a heap of rubble while in deep thought.
At least, I should try on my new [Skill]: [Acute mind]
The moment I think about my [Skill] my vision blurs.

The neurons in my brain multiply.My brain grows and expands,namely my cerebrum and cerebral cortex. Fireworks explode in my head...the sensation is unbearable.
I...I can feel it...
Infinite!
Congratulations! You have reached Maximum Brain Capacity. The effectiveness of [Acute mind] will be affected by your [Intelligence] and the amount of time it can be in use is affected by [Endurance].
I can feel every heartbeat. Every breath! Every muscle! The blood flowing through my veins and arteries!
This is it!
924 x 634 = 585,816
The 9th president of the united states was William Henry Harrison
The last man to walk on the moon was Gene Cernan and he wrote his daughters intials on the moon: "TDC"
The first person convicted of speeding was going eight mph
Hoc incredibile dictu!
Due to overuse of [Acute mind], [Health] will be decreased.
[Health] - 0.3 / 2
"Oh shi-!"

Some of them might insanely worship him, while others hated him. Some might become his enemies. Some might end up becoming his teammates in the end. From a gamer on Earth to here, he became a God (even he himself could not verify this yet), had his own religion and even a church with a Holy Land to fight for justice. What kind of world is this? What kind of existences might live in this world? What kind of secret this world owns? Can Sui Xiong return to Earth? Keep on following the story to find out the answers for those questions.
