Greater Acid Slime lv 19
The slime was like a giant blob of green with one white orb in the middle and two black dots near the top which Kal took to be eyes of some kind.Seeing this Kal pretty much felt he was done for. That is until he saw it move toward him. The slime was slow as hell!
Kal pushed off the floor and rolled out of the slimes way. But the slime didn't stop it continued toward the elevator.
Kal-"The hell?"
Then Kal heard a smash and a screech of metal and saw one of the hulks slowly coming out of the elevator. When the hulk laid eyes on him it started thrashing try to break free. But in the next moment the slime engulfed it.
Kal watched as the Hulk zombie slowly disintegrated. Somehow Kal could tell the slime was content especially when the other hulk jumped into it.
Kal-"So never get caught by a slime. But it seems to be uhh full? So I should be good if that's the only leader here."
Kal's first thought was to check around but it was oddly quiet. There were a few green glows here and there which he took to be other slimes but they didn't seem to care about him. Shrugging he decided it was best to get some more food so he headed for this floors cafeteria. He casually walked around the first floor seeing slimes here and there but any he got close to either shirked away or held still. Walking up to one Kal saw what looked like a shiver.

Kal-"Could it be that since I am a higher level they fear me?"
That was actually the case in this instance. Most creatures understand when a predator is near and to the slimes Kal was predator not prey. But it wasn't entirly his level his stats were also a factor in this. He pretty much oozed strength to these little slimes. The slimes knew that even if they fought all together this human would kill them all and thus chose to hide or do nothing hoping to be spared.

Seeing that none of the slimes wanted nothing to do with him Kal chose to leave them alone as well.
Kal-"No point in kicking a hornets nest. Especially since these things probably wouldn't give me anything decent."
As he made it to the cafeteria he found more slimes. But like the others they did nothing. After cleaning out this cafeteria and making his preparations he decided it was time to leave.
On his casual walk to the front doors Kal shot a quick look at the greater slime as he walked by. He could see that some of the dead bodies from the roof of the elevator had fallen in and were being eaten as well.

Kal-"So slimes get stronger by eating? Well at least this one is not a problem."
As hecontinued on Kal finally approached the front doors to the hospital. He walked through them and headed toward the parking lot out front where he saw some familar faces.
Kal-"Huh so you guys didn't die."
He stated it in a way that he fully expected them to die. Which to be fair he did. Hearing his uncaring tone all of the people frowned.
Trisha- "No we didn't die although it looks like you almost did."
Seeing the smile on her face made him want to punch her teeth in but he held back.
Kal- "Yea would've been nice to know about the Hulk zombies Doctor D. but I'm sure they must've slipped your mind."
Kal's tone was icy and full of accusation. Dent decided to look away and mumbled an apology. Kal's eyes burned red at this.
Kal-"You know what your not worth it. I could kill everyone here and not feel bad about it but you know what in a few moments I am about to be happy so sit back and enjoy the show!"

---------------------------------------
Going back to earlier with the alpha harvester.
Kal- "Let me tell you a secret."
A.H.- "Sure I'll listen boy."
He smiled.
Kal- "You see I am almost 100% sure none of you can leave your floors at least not on your own. Otherwise why stay here when you could've took the whole hospital? I think the orcs were supposed to be a food source which is why the can move around. Now you see this is where the secret comes in. I am the one who killed all the bloodlings and I plan to kill every last creature in this building!"
Hearing this the alpha started laughing.
A.H. "You are right currently we can't leave our floors but that restriction will pass. But killing all the creatures? You are amusing human. This place is protected and anyone who tries to come kill us before we settle in will be punished."
After that he continued to laugh.
Kal- "Oh I never planned on killing you directly. But I am sure by indirectly killing you I won't suffer any repercussions."
Hearing this the Alpha stopped laughing and looked at the boy this time with a little bit of wariness.
Kal- "Tell me do you know what gas lines are?....No then let me enlighten you. You see we humans use gas for a lot of different things on this world. One of those things is to cook. You see when gas is exposed to fire it ignites itself. Normally it's under controlled circumstances but I am planning something much different. I am going to open every gas line I can find on my way out and watch this place go up in flames."
The alpha's face filled with horror.
-----------------------------------------------------
And Kal did just that. All the preparations he was doing was locating every gas main possible in the cafeterias since those were they only places he was sure had any. And now that he is out well he has to follow through right.
Taking a cloth from his inventory he wraps it around and arrow pours some alcohol on it then sets it ablaze with a lighter he too from a corpse.
Taking aim he shot the first arrow toward the 20th floor cafeteria. Everyone in the parking lot watch the arrow fly and when it hit the window on the 20th floor they saw a huge fireball explode out and decimate the area.
Cyn-"What the hell are you doing! There are still people in there!"
Kal shot her an annoyed looked.
Kal-"None of the things in there can be freed all of them have to die. If the people in there haven't escaped yet then this is a mercy."
Turning back Kal sets another arrow ablaze and aims at the cafeteria on the first floor. Seeing this the people in the parking lot all try to stop him. Dent tries to tackle him from behind and Trisha comes in from the side followed by Cyn.
Kal kicks Dent in the stomach and elbows Trisha in the face and she falls back into Cyn. Then he turns back and lets the arrow fly. With another loud band and explosion tears through the air and the first floor catches fire.
All the people stare in horror at what Kal did. But none of them noticed the tears in his eyes or his next words.
Kal-"Rest in peace Nana, Papal."
End of the Breeding grounds.

Bitter
The story of a girl who finds her life is not what she wanted. So she gets another one. Schedule: Story has been completed. Book One is available free on Amazon and EPUB. Books Two to Five are out now. Final Book out soon. Chapters will be around 500-1000 words. This will not change so if you don't like reading very short chapters wait till the end of the week or even end of the month. This many chapters a week isn't easy to pull off so please bear that in mind. This is a VRMMORPG story, but the ones I've read tend to use VR as an excuse to get into a fantasy world and then don't really play up the game aspect other than pulling up a status screen every now and then. To me, MMOs are about more than the fantasy setting. Bugs, exploits, devs who don't understand their own game, OP classes, over the top nerfs, p2w, ridiculous RNG, cash shop fiasco, lockboxes, raging players, broken mechanics, limited bag space, tedious crafting and above all that, a company trying to squeeze money out if its playerbase while pretending they're just in the business of having fun. Of course, then there's the orcs and elves. This story is about finding yourself in a completely immersive fantasy game, but it's also about what a game like that would really be like.

WISH MOUNTAIN
I could give you a typical synopsis that you'll gloss over...or I could tell you the essence of what the story will be. Still with me? Great! Let's get to it... WISH MOUNTAIN is inspired by fairy tales and, in a way, animated Disney movies. The biggest inspiration of them all is Beauty and the Beast. Why? Because I love it and hate it at the same time. The thing I hate about the movie is how the villain, Gaston, never got a chance for redemption. The movie was all about what is on the inside that counts, right? Beast went from bad-to-good because Belle learned to love and care about him. Was Gaston not worth that same chance for redemption? Sure he was a bad person, but so bad that he couldn't also undergo the same kind of change for the better? It was this question that got me thinking... what would Gaston's redemption look like? What kind of story would that be? From this nugget an entire epic story unfolded that has both outgrown, but has never forgotten, that original inspiration. So what can you expect? In essence: something like an epic, adult-orientated Disney story, which is gloves-off when it comes to violence and character trauma. I'll be doing my best to write a story that is as close to a classic adventure fairy tale with real stakes and meaningful characters as I can. The story begins with two orphans; Amaryllis and Chicory, who are whisked away to the magical WISH MOUNTAIN, and are faced with fending for themselves all alone. This is a HUGE story that will take YEARS for me to finish. If you're ready for a journey to Wish Mountain, then Once Upon a Time begins with Chapter 1...
