《Terror Infinity Remake》4 Meeting with the NPCs
Advertisement
At last the time for the mission to begin had come. Everyone seemed a bit more alive as they were suddenly teleported to a desert.
Everyone looked around, mostly looking for the spaceship debris, but it seemed at if once more they were thrown into far away spot in the map from their objective.
Suddenly a stone fell from the sky, most of them looked at it and then at the sky only to see a small dot in the sky. It was approaching fast and it was coming right at them.
The players begun to scatter in all directions, the debris came first as the whole spaceship was on fire as it entered the planet's atmosphere.
Two people died from the debris and some were wounded, one could call them unfortunate as one of the ship's compartments was detached and fell right where they were.
The Players were shocked beyond belief as the huge container crushed into the sand, sinking further and further, the only fortunate thing was that it hadn't crushed anyone.
"Stop wasting time! Follow me, we have to reach the Front of the Spaceship, I recon that it might take half a day to do so"
Tian's voice came at the right moment unifying the scattered group, those wounded were helped by others to bind their injuries with what little supplies they had. Samson was unhappy that the bandages he stole from Chris were used on those wastes.
Chris was reluctant, but it would be best for the mission if they arrived at the wreckage of the ship.
The road however towards the wreckage was a long one, the sun was unbearable and everyone looked at the people that had a souce of water with them. Mostly Hera who had brought lots of food and Samson whom had stolen Chris' things.
The group walked in the desert for around an hour, they could already see the wreckage in the distance, but it would take them some time to reach it.
People were thirsty already, but they already knew that there was no way to aleviate this heat, it would continue until the moment the monsters would appear. Some even wished for that day to come a bit earlier just to escape the heat.
They were almost there when the first person passed out due to the heat. The others did their best to carry the person with them, it wouldn't be long until they reach their objective, but the curious thing was that the mission objective hadn't appeared yet.
Suddenly a bullet shot in front of their feet and a loud voice shouted.
"Identify yourselves!"
Only then did the mission appear in all its glory.
==Objective No 1 - Reach the geological settlement within the time limit of 48 hours==
"We're Shipwreck survivors like yourselves!"
Shouted Nick, seeing as Tian and the others were not sure what to say.
"Leave your guns on the ground and you can approach!"
The loud voice sounded once again.
Everyone begun to leave their guns on the ground, except for those that had no guns, Chris was in that group since his weapons were stolen by Samson and given to his goons to use.
Inside the spaceship wreckage Johns and the other survivors looked at the large group of people that had suddenly appeared out of nowhere. The first thought they had were that they were scavengers, that would attack them and sell them as slaves. The galaxy was never a good place after all, there were still many solar systems where slavery was legal.

As Johns sighed in relief seeing the strangers nonchalantly dropping their guns, showing that they meant no harm, a voice came from behind him and the others.
"You will regret this Johns, they smell like bounty hunters"
Suddenly Johns' brows forrowed as he looked at the newcomers, but he had already lied that he was a police officer, escorting a prisoner. If they were bounty hunters, it could mean that his prey was in danger of being stolen.
Everyone else came out of the spaceship to meet the newcomers, seeing that the newcomers had food and water, they were more than wellcome.
"How did your ship fall, is it far away, maybe we can combine the parts of the two ships to escape the planet"
Fry the female pilot said with some hope in her eyes, seeing that there were almost 20 people in the other group, their ship should be a lot larger than their own.
"Not even worth trying, our ship was so badly destroyed that we were lucky to escape alive, our of 80 people only us escaped and we have been walking in this desert for days"
Nick said, making everyone else reluctantly agree with him, since they were somewhat bad at lying, Nick made is sound so easy to pull off.
Nick didn't speek any further, as he introduced the real leader of the group, Tian to deal with the troublesome stuff.
The survivors from the ship wreck were 7 adults and a group of 5 kids. The one acting as their leader was Johns, whom introduced himself as as a police officer, escorting the dangerous criminal named Riddick to prison.
With that introduction the players were all interested to look at Riddick, but he didn't look anything extra ordinary, just some muscly guy bald guy, with no charisma at all, nothing like the actor playing him in the movie.
One of the players was foolish enough to approach the man, Riddick slowly opened his eyes, his pupils were grey with a purple hue to them, but this action alone was enough to terrify the player into retreat.
Riddick begun to abruptly laugh, causing everyone to feel fear in their hearts.
Only for a second laughter for follow, not long after which drew everyone's attention to one of the players. It was Chris and the reason he was laughing was because the player that approached was one of Samson's goon and secondly he found the whole situation rather funny.
His laugher made even Riddick stop to look at him, as if he was seeing a dead man.
"What are you laughing about!"
The one whom approached him with anger was Samson.
"Stop it, we can't be fighting among ourselves right now!"
Fry shouted, getting in between the two.
Samson looked at her with some anger, but he didn't dare touch her because of Tian's orders.
After the last mission, Tian had decided to not kill the NPCs, because of George whom had saved his life and because he was sure that the team he had right now was useless trash. The only three people that were worth something were Nick, Chris and George in his eyes.
"Listen big guy, while you're on our ship, you will take orders from me!"
Johns suddenly said to Samson, before giving him a hit in the guts with his shotgun, seeing him plopping to the floor like a mudfish on dry land.

"Anyone has any opinions on this?"
Johns' shotgun was the best arguement and everyone had already left their guns in the sands before coming over.
Johns' gaze was however on Tian, whom was supposed to be the leader of these survivors. He was rather curious about the guy, who hadn't spoken much even though he was the leader. If not for Nick's words, he would have never figured out that he was the leader.
Tian was also shocked by how decisive Johns was, although he knew that the other was just an NPC, he wouldn't look down on him. He looked like a military specialist, something that Tian was afraid of crossing fire with. He hated military NPCs the most, not only were they stronger than regular NPCs, but most of them weren't afraid of attrition warfare.
"I agree"
Nick suddenly said, making everyone look confused, since it wasn't supposed to be his turn to talk.
Tian gritted his teeth as he held it in and then with a smile said.
"I agree as well"
After Tian a huge wave of player said that they agreed to the arrangement. Johns was satisfied and didn't see that in a corner Chris looked at the whole picture without really caring about it.
Before long Johns begun to argue with Fry about supplies and how this huge group would only weight them down.
The solar energy buggy they had could only accomodate 2 people and hearing that there should be a geological research settlement nearby, caused everyone to be happy.
The problem was that Tian wanted a lot of people to follow him there, making Johns a bit angry.
Normaly this would be solved with Tian earning a bullet in the head, but Johns didn't want to expose himself as a bounty hunter yet.
The journey towards the settlement didn't start immediately, but Tian had already taken most of the people towards the settlement, those that stayed behind were the survivor group and the NPCs.
Fry and Johns were the two that would take the buggy and see what the settlement was all about, both didn't believe the newcomers' intelligence and wanted to see for themselves, but that would be later, first they would spent some time on gathering resources from the compartments of the ship that were ejected.
The survivor group were happy to help them out with that task, since all they wanted to do was survive.
Chris looked at the survivor group, whom were helping out the NPCs in any way they could, they were all kind and chatty.
Nick came to sit next to Chris for a second, until he saw the tied up criminal inside and decided to go find a better place to sleep.
Chris heard a faint sound from behind him, he looked and Riddick was saying something, but it was too silent to hear.
He was probably trying to make him to go closer or something.
Chris wasn't afraid of the guy, but he knew the guy could kill people with a spoon in the movies.
"I can't hear you"
Chris said.
"He's saying water"
Suddenly a childish voice came from a small distance.
"then go give him some, or are you afraid, he'll bite you?"
Chris said, making the young boy a bit discouraged.
There was a bottle not too far away, the survivors had left it for him, mostly because Hera said so. She was playing the benevolent goddess in the eyes of the survivors, but in reality she didn't do anything herself, just ordering others to do everything.
"Coward"
Chris teased the boy and took the bottle and approached Riddick, causing both Riddick and the boy to be surprised.
What shocked Riddick the most however was what Chris did next, He stopped the bottle in front of Riddick and then suddenly the electronic handcuffs opened.
"Here, drink by yourself"
The child rushed out of the cabin screaming, while Riddick's dumpstruck face looked hilarious.
"Are you drinking or not?"
Chris said irritated, holding the bottle in place.
"Aren't you afraid of me?"
Riddick asked before carefuly taking the bottle away with a snapping movement.
"Why should I, after all it's not like you wouldn't have escaped anyways"
Chris said as he turned his back to him and went back to sit at the exit of the cabin like before.
"Give me a gun"
Suddenly Riddick said after gulping all the water down in one breath.
-Get it yourself
-You're a strange guy
-Not as strange as you
-Why do you say that?
-Because you haven't killed me yet
-Why would I want to kill you
-How should I know, maybe because I'm pissing you off
-See you later strange guy
-It's Chris!
-See you later Chris
The child returned with all the adults, Johns included, seeing the empty room, Johns pointed his gun at Chris.
"Where did Riddick go!"
Johns shouted.
"How should I know"
Chris said with an indifferent tone that only made Johns more angry.
"Wait Sir, this guy is even more valuable than Riddick!"
Hera suddenly shouted, causing Johns to stand there puzzled, Riddick whom was hidding was also interested.
"He's a money making hacker"
Hera said, but her words puzzled Johns and the others, they never heard about hacker being able to make money, although it wasn't completely impossible in theory.
"It's true, if he wanted to he could even hack into this spaceship"
She said, which maked no sense at all, since there was no wifi or anything that would allow that.
"Idiot, just make the lights go on and off or something"
Hera said, making everyone confused, since they hadn't restored the lighing function yet, after all it was still bright outside and they didn't need more light.
"Just leave me alone"
Chris said, disregarding them all, but Johns was greedy, if by even a chance what that woman said was real, he couldn't let this hacker die for nothing.
"Hack this for me, just make it show 20 millions and I'll leave you alone"
Johns threw a strange cilinder with some numbers on it to Chris, it was airtightly shut and looked somewhat dirty.
Chris didn't know what it was and just did what he was told before throwing it back at him. Johns eyes were glowing with excitement, screw Riddick, he was now rich, now all he had to do was get off the planet.
"How did you do that?"
"That's illegal!"
"Can you do mine too"
The voices of the others caused Chris to have a headache, but this action made them understand why non of the survivors were carrying any money on them, with such an ability who needs to carry money.
