(From MC's Perspective)
We twenty people from two batches stood in front of the Green color Star Tower, waiting for future instructions. Looking at these huge tower, I couldn't help but wonder, "What kind of Challenge we will be facing inside?"
At this time, Star Tower official came in front them and said, "Alright, Everyone! We will begin the Challenge" He spoke to the two batches, then he added, "First batch, Get ready! One by one you will be entering the tower."
Listening to his explanation, everyone from the first batch understood. I too come close to my batch people. Then the official gestures first batch to enter the tower.
Nodding their head, People begin to enter one by one. I too followed them and stepped inside.
Seeing that everyone from first batch entered the tower, the official sent confirmation message to Head Management. At this time, He instantly received further instructions from the management. The official begin to look at the instruction, after reading the instruction. A surprise glint flashes in his eyes. Then he typed back replying to the message.
Then the official looks at the second batch and said, "Listen, Everyone. I have just received an update now. Due to time, constraint. Small Changes has been made. You don't need to wait for warrior from first batch to finish it completely. As long as, a person exit from the tower. Then the next participant can enter. So, Second batch get ready."
After instructing them, He also told his assistant to inform third and fourth batch. Receiving the order, the assistant immediately rushed towards the waiting area. The other hand, the warriors from second batch sight jn relief. They don't know about the challenge, yet they don't want to wait all day long.
The other hand, Inside the Star Tower.
"Damn, Why this place is so dark?" I whispered to myself.
My wrist watch has been blocked. So, I couldn't know the timing. But I feel, it has been five minutes, Since walking along here in the dark place. "What could be the challenge?" I begin to murmur.
At this time, a wing flapping sound came from behind. I instantly activated my perceptual ability. And moved sideways to evade the attack from behind.
"whizzzzz" a wind tearing sound resonates the area.
In mind I saw the silhouette of Eagle Monster.
"It's not Class level but Pseudo Monster!" I become excited after confirming it. The only trick thing is there is no light. It's a piece of cake to defeat it.
Then I moved, with the guidance of perception. I waited for an opportunity to attack. I can easily see its movements. Right now, its taking an arc to launch another attack.
Their attack is not at all issue, other than pointy claw there is nothing dangerous. I can easily quash as bug.
The other hand, the pseudo monster suddenly dive down. It made an eerry sound before it dive back to attack Zack.
It's huge claws waiting to penetrate his body and taste it's blood.
Seeing it coming down in a breakneck speed. I focused my attention on it's movements. In a moment, I used my movement technique to speed up, the other hand I unleashed full strength to break it's neck.
Just as I grabbed the Pseudo Monster neck. It tried to attack me using its clue. But I don't give any chance, I broke its neck in next instant.
Just as the Pseudo Monster dies, it's body withers away rapidly leaving behind no dust.
I became bewildered for a moment. "This is not real, it's more like a phantom spirit " I gulped down my saliva realizing that. "This is big handwriting, it seems more real" I wondered to myself.
Then suddenly a bright light shot towards me from nowhere, as it falls over my body and entered inside. I felt rejuvenated inside. Though I didn't even spend my strength.
Next moment, I disappeared from the spot and appeared at the second floor.
…
The other hand, outside the Star Tower.
The Changes appeared in the leader board ranking, as Zack name appeared on the first spot, it immediately attracted the attention.
[ LEADER BOARD – STAR TOWER ]
[ Name, Place – Floor – Time ]
[ 1. Zack Lockwood, Hansen Campus – 2nd Floor – 5s ]
[ 2. __________-_________ - _________ ]
[ 3. __________-_________ - _________ ]
"Wow, who is he? He cleared the first level in five seconds!" A Loud exclamation broke out.
Every one stared at the leader board, Not only people outside the star tower. The leader board ranking is broadcasted everywhere around the region. The most importantly it caused both Positive and Hostile attention.
Inside the waiting hall, rest of the eight batches began to converse even further. Lot of these people from various forced, they got first hand knowledge about talent warriors surrounding their region. But now looking at these unknown person name, they all become bewildered confuse.
Immediately, all of them began to contact their forces. Especially, Robb expression changed even more gloomy. At first he didn't care about these details, but now it drew his attention even more. He registered the name of Zack in his mind.
Beside him Darius got even more bewildered. Earlier, He made bad remark about this unknown kid. But seems like this person name Zack indeed got some stuff. But it was just a thought, He doesn't know what kind of challenge they are facing. He still believes there might be some luck behind him.
Other's too had various reactions on their faces. But it was just for a moment. Since, it's first level they don't give much attention to it. There is still many more to come.
The other hand, Zack's friends and family also saw the leader board ranking.
"Ha…Ha…Ha.." Elder Thornton let out a hearty laughter seeing the leader board ranking. He believed tomorrow morning this will be enough to have headlines in news.
He is quite surprised and happy with the progress so far. He hoped Zack to maintain this momentum for a while.
At the same time Mr. James and Granny Park also had the same reaction. On the other hand, Mr. Arthur and Ms. Adeline Key are also same, they put behind their work for a while. They glued to the special broadcasting site. Only one person didn't aware of this scenario, Maria Frazier. She don't know about the latest news due to her training.
…
Inside the tower, When Zack reached the second level.
"Here we go, the same situation occurs. The Area is dark again" I whispered to myself. I believed here onwards, I will face Class Monsters. For somehow, Me reaching the level above ten seems to be difficult. If it's based on Monster's strength. Then there will be phantom of Class 2 and Class 3 Monsters eventually.
Just as I begin to ponder, two more silhouette begin to flash passed me.
I ready myself into battle ready mode, in mind I saw one more pseudo monster. My expression become dignified, I'm not worried about this level. My mind begin to about fighting against two or more Class Monsters at the same time.
Then putting these depressing thoughts behind and begin to focus on current task. I don't want to waste too much time and energy on this pseudo monsters. So, I used the same tactics as used in the first floor.
These two pseudo monsters also some kind of mutated bird monster. I didn't dwell into details, as I decided to kill them.
A couple of seconds later, Zack arrives at the third floor after clearing second level. The corresponding changes also happened in leader board ranking. As Zack finished the level finished the second level in ten seconds, at this time rest of the warrior from second floor begin to clear the first level.
…
The other hand, Seeing the leader board's ranking finally begin to fill. The news outlets begin to cover the news. As this is the opening day of Star Tower, it will attract more attention from the people. This time main headline was the top three people in the leader board at the first day ranking.
At this time, various forces begin to collect the information about the people in leader board ranking. Even though they had collected some information forehand, but still there were some unknown people making appearance at the leader board ranking.
The name of Zack Lockwood become hot topic, His information begin to circle around within few seconds after appearance of his name at the leader board ranking.
...
The other hand, Zack faced against three pseudo monsters at level 3. It more than twenty seconds to clear this level. As Zack's record time noticed by the people, at the same time it's huge contrast between other warrior from first batch. They are some still at first floor, few appeared at the second floor. Though it's only one minutes, it's enough to make people notice some details. Suddenly, After clearing the level three, Zack appeared at the fourth floor. Where it become little tricky.. Inside the fourth floor, level 2 Pseudo Monster made an appearance.
