《What if world is in TACTIC RPG mode (Tactical RPG World)》Most rewrite of pre chapters Prologue
Advertisement
I am lordol aged 27 years old currently studying systems at University. During my free time, I like to research strange subjects: an example of this is when I spent months stacking different materials to make a new stuff like a variety of armour from composite materials. Another time I looked into psychic powers, sadly I can't get the find any objective evidence to its existence as of yet. I also have looked into the field of biology with the end result being barely improved running by reducing air resistance. This is only the scratching the surface of what I have looked into and innovated. In general, dislike the activities most people my age tend to enjoy. While my peers play sports and go out clubbing I prefer to stay at home, locked in my room. A classic odd ball. Despite my self-induced seclusion, my charitable deeds and my undeniable charisma that draw people and grant me some semblance of a social life were most people like me have none. Seriously! Gathering? Clubbing? Football? No way! I'm tired of it, why do people insist on inviting me all these events? Can't they understand that I don't enjoy it, that I am left exhausted and feeling like crap? Back to reality now that the fuse on my internal rant has fizzled out. "Bleep, bleep, bleep" I wake up from my bed and look at the clock ... I have half an hour before I need to arrive at the university. Jumping out of bed and tossing on some clothes, I grab a slice of bread and stuff it down my throat before grabbing my bag and rushing to the bus stop. Upon reaching the bus stop I notice that usual blue and white collars workers crowd around each other like a big rice ball. Creating a painfully long queue for the bus. What I'd give to have a day with no one pushing me. Getting shoved around like I'm in a pinball machine I make my way onto the bus, showing the bus driver my bus pass. I try to get a seat on the crowded bus to fury I can't manage to get a seat. Not a single fucking person will move their bags out of the seat next to them. The bastard won't even spare a single seat. Suddenly my head starts feeling dizzy then... "BANG! BANG! BANG!" "What the fuck was that! Where am I and what is this place?" I shout. Thank you for pre-register the game, please enter the room for selecting your rewards As the speaker start to relay the message, there are people screaming and shouting like mad in the background. Now I find myself lying in a corner of dark room. There is a wooden table painted black with a single, blinking lamp at the edge. Once I heard of pre-registered of the game, I get myself hyped up as i love to have a pre-registered game, even through i pre -registered and play many games , i do not really play though the game as it is getting boring or simply lame as it is just a cash grabbing game in the end. Getting up I walk over and take a closer look. A candy with a purple wrapper and white letter with black capitalised writing lay on the table illuminated by the blinking lamp. The contents of the letter read... WELCOME TO THE NEW WORLD! YOU HAVE BEEN CHOSEN TO BE A PLAYER FOR THE NEW UPCOMING GAME. THIS IS VOLUNTARY. YOU HAVE A CHOICE TO ACCEPT THIS ONE TIME DEAL OR NOT TO REJECT IT AND RETURN TO YOUR OLD LIFE. DUE TO YOUR UNBALANCED SPECS OF HIGH CHARISMA AND INTELLIGENCE BUT LOW PHYSICAL SKILLS YOU WILL BE GIVEN A BONUS GIFT. IF YOU WISH TO REJECT THE OFFER THEN TOUCH THE LAMP. IN ORDER TO ACCEPT THE DEAL - EAT THE CANDY. End of the letter. Due to the surreal situation and the Alice in Wonderland type scenario, I cave in and pursue my curiosity and eat the candy, the candy tasted like it is out of this world, my body start to heat up a bit. Then, three pieces of paper appear out of nowhere. The light start to lighten itself and become less blinking. New instruction appears from the letter itself. WELCOME TO THE NEW WORLD! THE BONUS GIFT IS GIVEN AFTER THE TUTORIAL. THERE ARE THREE PIECES OF PAPER PICK ONE AND TIE IT ON THE LAMP. THOSE PAPER ARE CHOICES THAT YOU GET BEFORE ENTERING THE THE GAME. RED = A RANDOM WEAPON. BLUE = A RANDOM EQUIPMENT. YELLOW = A RANDOM ITEM.

I read the letter, over and over again. Wondering if there are any indicators that this is a trap or any clue as to how the magic hat changed the lettering works. Despite reading the letter with a discerning eye there are no visible changes to the letter; except the fact that the writing has completely changed. I have been given the choice of choosing between one out of three pieces of paper. What fucking luck, who knows the effects of picking a piece of paper will have on my chances. As I am diving into the unknown a good starting item might make all the difference over any possible competition.
Red paper is a weapon to be chosen by choice: Depending on the technology this could range from a rocket launcher to a stone-tipped spear.
Blue paper is for equipment: I assume this ranges from clothes to armour.
Yellow paper is for items: Depending again on the technology this could range from a phone to a health potion.
The lack of any detail or explanation as to what I will be facing leads me to think that having a weapon might be the best choice. If I am being hunted right from the get go having a weapon to defend myself will be necessary or if I am hunting I will also need a weapon.
I hope that I can get a ranged weapon, finding a melee weapon from my experience is easy while a decent ranged weapon is far more difficult. As my life might be on the line staying at a distance would be preferable. My country have laws that banned guns and etc. Making it an insane difficulty of obtaining one unless you are from the army.
For the rest of the choices, equipment(blue) is also important as it provides defence, comfort, and protection. However, nice shoes won’t save you from a mob’s club. The same goes for any item (yellow) while they could have special effects seems like a gamble as it could just pop out junk which is worthless.
I pick up the red paper then I shout "Red.” My voice breaking as the worry worms away at my resolve.
A shining light appears from the cards obscuring my sight. The cards are now all red with differing stripes stretching diagonally from the top left corner the bottom right.
The first card has a blue stripe flipping it reveals the information and stats of the weapon the card contains.
Name: Electric Sabre (melee type)
Description: A sabre has been combined with a cheap circuit board made by an unknown manufacturer which allow the blade to discharge electric volts to zap at slashed targets. It comes with a transformation USB cable that can be used as a plug.
Damage: 3-5 + 1 (+0.5 damage per sec, max damage = +5 if activated)
Power: 80%
Effects: Charging enable to drain power from batteries and other power supplies to increase its power
Secondary effect from charging is turned on for 10 seconds(max) without slashing will build up power for a Mega Slash
Zapping enable 5% of numbing or stunning the target (resistant depending on the target)
Putting down the first card I pick up the second card which has three stripes coloured grey, blue and red within the one stripe. Flipping it reveals…
Name: Machine shotgun
Damage: Ammo +10 (75% damage for missable targets)
Area: A fan like AOE damage or less spread for 10% of +5 bonus damage)
Description: A weapon in the past designed by you know who which is a combination of rifle, shotgun, heavy machine gun. This combination of weapons into one comes with 100 12x usage shells.
Advertisement
Effects: Upgradeable, Customizable, Raging Heart require a skill called raging rage to unlock its effect, overheated shots (a passive skill that +5% of burning effects when the gun is overheating).
I feel a connection and a desire to wield such a weapon. The utility of the combination to speaks to my heart. The nostalgia awakes, prompting memories of the hours I spent on rail shooter arcade games. Away from the demands and cruel mocking of the other kids, I slew hordes terrorists and zombies.
It is time to see what the last card can do. The third card has a white stripe.
Name: Seeker Pleaser
Damage:5 (-1 damage per 5 squares or dodge)
Description: A homing weapon that only uses up mana for firing. Most cost efficient and effective weapon in its rarity.
Effect: Homes onto a target that is within 20 squares, Mana based ammo use mana as ammo cost efficient indeed.
From the moment I read the second card, I had already chosen the machine shotgun.
“Machine shotgun, the second card” I speak my voice clear and sure as I pick up the second card. The cards disappear then reappear on the table and the writing on the letter has once again changed.
GOOD JOB IT IS TIME FOR STATS AND TRAITS SELECTION
THE SAME RULES AS BEFORE
Red= game based simple stats like your RPG (strength, dexterity, intellect, luck)
Yellow= A decrease in chances to get traits but an increase in stats
Blue= lower stats but more traits and skills
Normal players are auto-selected on red.
I pick the blue piece of paper.
"BOOM BOOM BOOM" the letter exploded into a small piece of paper. (no one knows why letter exploded for no reason)
Blue words appear on the white paper:
Think of stats in your mind and stats window will appear for view purpose
Think of stats again to close it
if you are done
say exit selection
tutorial quest will appear once after the game start operation meanwhile enjoy your pre register of the game.
Note that almost everyone has tutorial quest, most of them will try to complete as it is the most easiest quest as speed up time for people to settle down once after the game have been set up
There will be a bonus item for you after tutorial quest.
I think it is just a some rpg game or something as i just love to pre register the games, quests ? i guess maybe there is monsters, items and etc nevermind about that, i check my status, np it is not working, think stats stats stats, there is something pop up and down in my mind, maybe i am thinking too fast, after a few minutes of trying, it dont work as the window keep flicking.... okay slowly ........... think ......S..........T.........A..............T...........S.......

Okay that is pretty 3D np 5D based game i guess, i guess i have to wait for its offical game released, think loudly in my mind "exit"
Back to reality' Wow that is a way exotic dream that I truly hope it is real but too bad it is a just a dream of a game" at that time, it is just a casual thought because of that thought, my future has being changed for better or worse....
Wait a minute, this is the stop to the uni if i miss on alighting the bus stop, i need to walk another 2 to 3 kliometers if i alight on the next bus stop, ........ wait for me to alight and people stop blocking my way.......
In the end i end up alighting on the next stop,...... those people cant them be more considerate and let people who want to alight, alight first, rather to block the way and cause people to stay there.....pack up like a riceball which is hard for people to alight, as people alight slower = bus trip duration get longer as more time spend on waiting the passengers to alight before more people aboard the bus.
After a long walk to uni, i rest for a while before going to the class, meanwhile some random couple say "have you seen the TV, they say more rocks come to earth and shooting stars showers on 2 to 3 days, let dont miss it", "let meet at XXXXX on look at the shooting stars" ....
I hear a lot of people keep been chatting about the Moon going to touch the Sun or news that is something like that anyway I don't care about it.
If not all those boring news, it is just increase of tax and fees and you know milking the citzens for money even through they are way richer than normal people , or secretly place cameras everywhere for the safe reasons.
For previous 5 to 10 years, the news keeps reporting strange events about the Sun and Moon, it seems like people are madly in love in space I just don't get it what is so interesting about Moon intersect the Sun. Maybe people want to get away from the reality that taxs keep increasing for no shit reasons, so they work like mad and they only barely live on as a human. To me, what is the point of being interested in those events? Can that events give me powers? even it could can it provide me the power to beat all of the others so-called power? Can it change my life for better forever? Do that event make me alway way better than others even they pool in all their powers, wealth, strength and etc?
The answer is NO, no way it can even make me better 1/10 of what I wanted, changes are happening but they are not 100% happening just to benefit me ... boring ... too bad this morning is just a dream, saddly it is a dream of a game and no way i will going to get to play with it .
(Summary MC is wondering why people like students in uni are talking about astrology, especially celestial stuff, to him, that stuffs don't bring him any benefits or getting him paid for doing nothing)
"BOOM" you get a new skill "can you power boost me " all harmful mind and nature magic are reduced by 20%
'WTF WHAT IN A SUDDEN I GET A STRANGE SKILL" why did the sound of a bomb explode when I get a skill, well it is a random good skill, I am not complaining it is better than nothing, what what what skill happen in my head, np i am just daydreaming.(MC whining)
After 3 days since the strange dream, I am wondering that the dream from 3 days ago is a dream happen just because I am too tired from last week project. Within this 3 days, news have been making a big fuss about the new moon is coming and it will affect on how we are going to live in, due to so called improvement in tech that is the reason why people get to know more about space and their discover.... will be interesting for most of the people.
On other news, there are a sudden increase of people going mad or doing strange things like an example increase in number of cult, the mass just cut themselves out for no reason, maybe they are infected by Mad man disease (MMD), a varity of the most popular of mad cow disease that the cows love the most, this is the theory of what current people are getting.
(tips MMD is a theory thar are made out by Our MC, there is no MMD exist in this world )
OH FUCKKKKKKKKKKKKK them all, from 100 years to now there is no new moon entering the earth, why now people keep talking about it. Every day there are small rocks raining from space to earth so what is the surprising or shocking thing of it, if they say one moon is coming, while governmanment are starting cleaning out of the insane cults that oppsite them.
(Dagger cult, the cult who first discovered by government, as they gather as a group to stab people by random)
I say let there be 3 moons on earth haha that will make them angrier haha.
"BOOM" wtf again stop surprising me with boom system are .....
"Planet control?(legendary)" required 20 int

Okay........ it is not funny LOL hahaha........new skills the best joke is I can't even use it.
RANDOM INT DRAIN OR BOOST activated, you will see fishes and your head is swinging and swinging to you have enough mana current mana -382/30.
I instantly feeling dizzy and my head is spinning violently, my body suddenly went "kissing the floor"

8 182Young bloods (WIP)
" So-called leaders prostituted their people to wars and abuse. They destroyed families, culture and economies; their hands dyed red by the blood of the children, the families trampled by their lecherous motivations and diabolical war machines. Trained and taught by the Revenants or rather “young bloods” from their war-torn world, we were going to build a better world for us and for the later generations, a world when there shall be no more wars waged over territory, a world where boys and girls can frolic around for all of eternity." -Sasha, Terutan regular army cadet. ‘History is determined by the victors, and here we stand transcended over those who abused us. History is filled with liars, broken promises of eternal prosperity and peace. The more things change, the more things stayed the same: ideology change, location shift but power will always find a place to rest its head. We fought and bled for the adults, the grown men and women who preached of us being their future, preached us of the freedom from tyranny and slavery; no wonder why we hated them so. History is determined by the victor, and there shall be no victors when we’re done.’- Yulia Bronskavya, Red Army Homeguard. As the first modern war came to a close in November 1st, 1918, rows of passed juveniles laid the battlefields. In the name of some royal fat cats or some shitty national leader, cruelty and crimes were committed against the weak and the vulnerable younglings; in other words, adults were assholes. Their deaths marked a new beginning, a new beginning in a strange and magical land that was and had only been dreamt of in stories and folk tale, they had arrived to Terruta. The first ones regarded themselves as Revenants, heroes who had been able to be reborn in this world and began their adventure to explore this strange foreign land. However, “every coin have two sides, like everyone have two faces”. 'As they left their former life behind, the young soldiers and operators found themselves being deceived, abused and taken advantaged off again by the elders of this world. Many were abused, tortured, raped and sold to slavery, Revenants were quite sought after due to their timeless charm, strength, intellect and immortality, they were unable to be killed no matter what; many were bought and used as pets, slaves and entertainers for their masters’ entertainment. Fed up with the similar treatment and abuse by the adults of this world, many revolted and founded ICC, International Cooperative Coalition.'-Sasaki Kotegawa, JSDF Private.
