《Is this some kind of joke, God?》A base at last | 3
Advertisement
I didn't sleep well, even at the thought that I'm relatively safe here, well I suppose changing world like that will fuck up your sleep. Well it is time to get to work.
I wore my Uniform, and armed myself with my side arm. After that I've entered HQ, Heintz was looking at an map there.
"Oh, hello Leutnant", he said and continued looking at the map.
"What is this map, Heintz?", I asked, I couldn't really see from that distance what was on the map. Well I probably should tell how the room looked like, well. It was 20x20x4 metres, and a big table was in the middle 3x6m, it was a big table. He was at the other end of it.
"Map of our surroundings, Lieutenant.", he said, he continued to carefully watch the map, after a moment he continued.
"I see at least two good MG positions Lieutenant, we should put them there to increase our security.", he points at three places at the map.
He pointed at an the roof of our HQ, and both entrances to the base.
"Additionally I suggest we put a sniper team at all times on the roof of HQ as it is the highest building here that can keep them safe. Moreover we should have at least 2 to 4 recon squads around the base at all times.", he continues.
I nod in understanding.
"And uhh, Leutnant.... I think you should have bodyguards since you're the one that keeps everything here working.", he says while looking me in to the eyes.
"Who do you suggest, Heintz?", I asked.
"No one from here, you should get a dedicated group that was trained for that task, and that is the Schutzstaffel, sir.", he says with serious look on his face.
"Schutzstaffel.... schutzstaffel...... wasn't that the SS? Those bastards were war criminals and racists shits! Why on earth I would want those fuckers as my bodyguards!", I thought,
"Are you sure that's a good idea Heintz?", I asked him.
"Why wouldn't it be Leutnant, keeping you alive and well should be top 1 priority, and they are trained for the task. Furthermore they won't flee you in fear of the enemy.", he answers.
"I remember reading something in internet about them, apparently there were fanatical to the point of giving up their lives for Hitler and the course.", the truth was, they literally were the perfect bodyguards, but still. The damn SS?

"I'll think about it Heintz.", I said.
"For the time being I've assigned you Gefreiter Wolfgang and Obergefreiter Karl as temporary bodyguards. But please, make your decision quick.", he says.
"He seems to be serious about that, like the damn Wehrmacht can't take care of me, I don't need the fucking SS!".
"Okay, were are those two?", I asked while glancing around.
"They're waiting outside, Leutnant.", he said while looking at the map again.
"I'll go meet them.", I said.
I opend the door to a hallway 3x2x3m, it looked nice and elegant. Outside on a chairs two soldiers waited, when they noticed me both saluted and introduced themselves.
"Hello Leutnant, I'm Wolfgang.", one of them said.
"And I'm Karl, we'll be your bodyguards until you acquire someone more competent than us.", the other one said.
"Hello, I'm very much aware of the situation, thank you for your temporary protection I trust in your skills.", I said.
This was a brief introduction, they seemed nice but professional about it. They were about ~2-3 metres away from me at all times. Wolfgang seemed like he's in early 30s and the Karl looked like he's 19. Well, quite interesting range of age, I would say. We exited the HQ building as I wanted to check on the base, I went to each checkpoint I've created and asked if anything happen, both gave the same answer:
"No, Leutanat. Nothing happend.".
I suppose after clearing the place from slimes it's safe. But I want to be able to get some more EXP to expand, I think we should make an "expedition", as in literally a division of troops that will shoot anything that moves, with half trucks, tanks, and infantry support. It would probably looked like the Waffen SS scene from the Fury, but instead of SS, it would be Wermacht. Well, it was a nice morning to start work, 7:00 on my watch, going and talking with each checkpoint surprisingly took 1 hour, I wonder if the time is different here, honestly I wouldn't be surprised.
"I need to check my menu before I do anything yet."
"Menu"
MENU ABILITY Soldiers 84/84 Planes 0/10 Tanks 0/24 Ships 0/3 Other 0/142 Buildings 8/251 Nationality GERMANY RANK LEUTNANT RESTRICTION User can summon only equipment to the year 1945 from original world. All of the information will be provided. Addictionally, user will have to level up in order to summon more troops, user will start at level 1, with first officer rank of the army user chooses. Summoned entities will call user by that rank.

Well, I can't summon any more people than I already have, and that means there would be no soldiers that know how to use a tank. That's quite difficult. I really wanted the EXP thought, I wonder if the "Other" option will count half-tracks and for example artillery. Well, only one way to find out. I summoned the German half-track Sonderkraftfahrzeug 251/1 (Sd.Kfz. 251/1) and gathered additional 10 men. I informed Heintz about my plan, he just nodded in understanding. Then I explained to the soldiers about my plan.
"Will we have artillery air or armored support?", one of them asked.
"No we won't, I think we're relatively save as the people of this world are on the medieval stage, the only thing I would be worried about is some kind of magic or other weird shit.", I said.
"Magic?", other one asked.
"Well, we encountered mimic town, I suppose other magic may or may not be here.", I said
They were awfully quiet, I wonder if it was out of fear to protest or they just didn't mind potential danger, well, doesn't matter I guess. We all entered the half-track and went thru checkpoint. We were driving at approximately 30 Km/h from what I know it can go at least 60 Km/h, but I guess it's on a road only. We were driving about 30 minutes until we've encountered a small town, the hills were extremly empty, no slimes at all. I wonder if they respawn after some times. The guard stopped us.
"Who are you and what do you want?", he said.
Me from half-track "Let us dive thru village, we search for no troubles."
"Who are you? You still didn't answer! You look like invading army, with who are you with!", he presses on the answer.
"We're not invading, we're lost.". Fuck I could think more about it, I just admitted that we are indeed an army.
"With who do you stand!", he pressed.
"Fuck what do I say"
"We're with.... The Empire.". Holy fuck, I do hope there's no empire here.
"The Empire?", he looked like he's trying to remember something.
"Yes.". I really hope there is no empire here, it's a dumb name to begin with, could think of something cooler.
"First time I heard that name, are you from the south?", he said with weird look on his face. I can't really read his face expressions.
"Uhh...", Is the south good? Bad? Is this place racist or anything? What do I say, shit!
"Well, you look like from the south form the face, but your uniforms.... I don't recognize them as well, from any military I know.", he pointed at my uniform.
"What's more, I can't recognize your symbols as well!", He pointed at the symbol on the side of the half-track and at my uniform. Well, it were markings of Germans during WW2, a black and white cross and a swastika.
"Well... they're our markings, you can rekognize our forces by that two marks.", I'm getting deeper and deeper into the army shit, it's not a lie but still what if he report that to some sorts of Noble that will see us as a threat.
"What magic did you use to enchant your horse like that? It's loud!", he pointed again at the half-track.
"Uhh.", Fuck, so there is magic in this world. I should've be more careful.
Other guard that appeared out of nowhere walked up to us and said.
"Well, you never can understand a magician, they don't look hostile. If they wanted to attack, why would they try to enter the village by the front?", he patted the other guard with smile.
"Well, outsiders, welcome to our small village, don't make troubles."
Both moved from the road and I ordered the driver to go, I saw one of the guards run somewhere. Shit I knew it, they'll report that to someone, why wouldn't they, of course they would report an unknown army with weird "magic" horses...
Well no matter, I will deal with it when we drive back thru the village. Onwards we go!

Ebony Chitin - Eclipse
Richard Adams is something of a talented alchemist. One of the few magical professions that have anything to do with some kind of science. Everything was going swimmingly, until the 'cold night' incident happened. With it being determined as his fault, that such a thing happened. He was promptly exiled until he could return to Eclipse with a new 'discovery' for his field. What he didn't expect; was that he'd run into a strange humanoid monster that could seemingly heal any life threatening wound in a matter of seconds. Certainly this would be what he needs to become a master alchemist. The first step on a multi series journey. Please excuse the earliest chapters and their poor grammer. Ebony Chitin follows Richard Adams, and Mimi on their Journey to understand each other and the world around them. Due the the exploratory nature of such a claim, it will cover many different topics. This was my first attempt at actually writing a story, and because of that I will not edit it. I'd suggest reading the second part as it comes out as most of the things within this book will be recapped. Though if it becomes popular I hope it might inspire some of you readers to write your own stories. Cover Art by Rose Dragon

Pawns of God
Five Lines PitchJoin Mark in his fight against a God and change the game's destiny! Delve into a slow-paced story focused on the progression of the main party and the development of the world. Mark himself will be narrating his life inside the game, and to a much lesser extend outside. Guild building, economy, and strategy are the central pieces of the novel. Mark is not overpowered, he will have to build his own power through action-packed battles, trials, traumas, love, and death. Accompany him, the healer and the strategist, an agent of chaos, in the adventure of his life. Without further preamble, I will let Mark take the mic. SynopsisHi! My name is Mark. This is my story, my life as I live it day after day. I’m in my thirties, and there’s nothing I love more than playing online games. I’ve just joined the action on the newest VRMMO game, Pawns of God. An immersive experience you can play while sleeping. Of course, as a game that takes pride in its long development and technological advances, everything inside seems and feels real. Beware, this is not a game-turns-real story. I love my own world and I would detest being summoned into another one. If that ever happens, I’ll just quickly take my life and be done with it. I play with my friends, in a party of 5. We have taken several roles, but lately, I've come to love being a healer. It's my secret ambition to someday be the shotcaller. I am not overpowered. If there is any bug or exploit in the game, they are yet to be discovered. Anyhow, for a game of this scale, the company is pouring all of its resources into test servers, QA, and beta tests. I don’t expect to find any, so I’ll be playing the game just like any other person. I must say, though, I am easily distracted, as you will immediately notice once you start. I'm working on it, I promise to improve! I am no hero. Being in my 30s, my heart is too old for this shit. I wouldn’t mind being one, of course. Who hasn’t dreamt of it? Either way, I’m not doing any grand quest to save the world. Whatever the game throws to their users, I’ll be there to experience it. Most of my life, at least the interesting parts that I’ll be narrating, happen inside the game itself. Rarely, there will be some IRL (In Real Life) chapters. You’ll understand, however, that as a freelance software developer, there is not much I can entertain you with when outside the game. Did I say I love games? Well, I’m also a fan of LitRPG literature. You know, journeys of magic, relationships, personal development, items, skills, discovery… In the spirit of not overwhelming my public, I’ll condense each chapter into circa 1500 words. You might have noticed some tags over this story, let me elaborate. I like to swear. I’m not shy when it comes to cursing my enemies, friends, or even myself. When there’s blood, I tell it as I see it. And… it hurts to admit it, but I’m not a casanova. Of course, this doesn’t mean that I won’t ever find love. So, in case I do end up finding it, let’s keep my sexual options open. As for traumas, none yet, but the future is vast and unknown.

Who Fixes Books Anyway?
On the pretense of a raise, the relatively new employee Pernie is called in to talk with her superiors. NOTE: This is a short story written for a class I took recently. As a result of deadlines, it does not possess the quality (or length) that I would like and is rather thrunkated. Perhaps sometime far in the furture I'll fix it up. For now, I have much more important things to work on, such as my other fiction.
