POV: Kyle's
I proceeded slowly through the forest, the bushes kept clinging on to me, slowing me down to the extreme. 'My body is even worse than a 50-year-old who only smoked his entire life!' I curse myself for my incompetence.
After approximately 1-hour walking did I reach a small stream, with this as a reference I slowly followed it further down, hoping there is a village or town further up ahead. It was starting to get darker so searched a tree to climb to see further ahead.
''Thump'', ''Damn'' I screamed, I tried to look further ahead by climbing a tree, but it seems that I am in that a failure, luckily I didn't break any bones. I did However twist my ankle, so I need to continue more slowly.''God', why did you put -1000 luck on me when I left' I cursed him. After fighting against nature which felt like ages and after walking at a snail's pace for more than 4 hours did I finally find a small German village. 'Will they find my 21st Century clothing weird?' I thought to myself.
I walk up to the village with no fear, 'I need to find a newspaper stand and see what my current situation is.' I analysed. With this idea, I increased my pace trying to find a kiosk or something similar. After searching for more than an hour I found absolutely nothing.'Maybe the village is very isolated' I comforted my bad luck with this idea.
I need a place to sleep, and something to eat. So I check my wallet finding there is still money in it I let out a sigh. I started to find a pub or Inn, but after half way through I finally remembered something, 'Oh... I forgot, Euros aren't a thing here....' as I remembered Germany uses the Reichsmark.
I need money for food and drinks and any other financial operations. With this thought I quickly opened my Delivery app 'We shall call it Fuhrer delivery service' since God is a shameless as the Fuhrer. On it there was the Reichsmark, one TU can be exchanged for more than 1 million reichsmarks! (Germany was experiencing hyperinflation making 1 Million seem like a lot of spending and money but see it more as 1000 euros) But thinking back on it, you need quite a lot of Reichsmark to purchase daily necessities. I exchanged almost 1000 TU for Reichsmark, 'that's 1 Billion Reichsmark'(1 million euros-ish) I thought to myself! But then again this is going down the drain quickly, I hurried to an inn, I can get the bank notes from the delivery app, making me carrying 1 billion reichsmarks easier.
I went to the front and request some food, typical German Bratwurst with mashed potatoes and some vegetables. Nothing fancy. While I was enjoying the meal, I heard someone giving a speech somewhere further into the Inn, I picked up some words like, 'For the state', 'rise up now', 'eliminate the communist threat!'. The more I heard this the more curious I got.
I quickly eat my food pay the money and also ask the Inn owner what date it is today, she said it was 24th of November 1932. I gasped for air quickly, '7 years until war!' 'That's enough time' I think to myself. I darted towards the noise of the speech, The closer I got the clearer the speech, and this speech was clearly from someone I have heard over documentaries over and over again.
I walk calmly towards the double doors, when I wanted to push them open 2 SA (Sturmabteilung) men stop me, they looked suspiciously towards me. I am completely lost for words,''What is wrong!'' I spoke German asking them to let me in to listen, they didn't budge. I walked back towards the front of the inn, I asked directions towards the bathroom, she quickly pointed upstairs. I went upstairs opened the men's bathroom and went to the fuhrer's delivery app. I searched for the Swastika Armband and a scientist outfit.'I'm a wanderer, full of knowledge, better dress as a crazy scientist. I mocked myself.' It only costs 400 TUs anyway. After changing clothes I grabbed my old clothes, but just when I was pulling my old clothes up my phone vibrates. I open it, my eyes open wide like Adolf Hitler hearing they lost the battle of Stalingrad.
On it stood clearly:
' 21st-century clothing, legendary class. ''Congratulations, you have found legendary class technology'' I was baffled, the menu then asks,:'' due to the wanderer not owning the basic wanderers clothing would you like to exchange for the 4th-grade level uniform or 1,000,000 TUs?''
'YES!' i scream inside of my head, but then again I remembered only the Pz. Kpfw IV H is 1,000,000 TUs, which drowned my excitement.
After a moment of thinking I went over the pros and cons and after thinking it through I first asked the system about the wanderer's grade levels:
'Wanderer's grade clothing stems from the number of technologies the wanderer finds that are rare, every wanderer starts with a normal grade 10 outfit which allows them to change into whatever clothing they need for the situation. Each grade adds new options for the wanderer.
From defensive to offensive gadgets. The highest grade is grade SSS, first outfits are ranked from 10 to 1 and then from E to SSS and each letter is double the effort. In order gain a higher grade outfit you have to find technologies rare for that era, for example, the jet planes from Germany were ahead of its time, but if the wanderer induces such technology from the delivery app you will not gain any upgrades to the outfit. This is done to ensure balance in the system.'
After reading this I trembled in excitement, 'Finally, it seems lady luck is with me!' I took the grade 4 Wanderers outfit, although not high, its better compared to the grade 10. After clicking confirm I drape the clothing over me. It automatically adjusted to the perfect size. Then I checked the gadgets each grade has:
-Grade 10 - Allows the wearer to change into any outfit purchased from the delivery app
-Grade 9 - The outfit has its own cooling and heating, which allows the wanderer to survive extreme conditions.
-Grade 8 - magnetic boots, allows the wanderer to stick to any surface made of man-made materials.
-Grade 7 - The Wanderer has the ability for 1 minute to take all strength in the human body for extreme situations, WARNING! the human body will suffer immense damage and needs very long periods to recover.
-Grade 6 - The wanderer has resistance towards slashing objects(not stabbing)
-Grade 5 - The wanderer now has a slot to put his phone in on his left shoulder, the area is heavily protected and can stop small arms fire.
-Grade 4 - The wanderer can now stop stabbing objects (not small arms fire)
-Grade 3 - Unknown
-Grade 2 - Unknown
-Grade 1 - Unknown
I calmly checked the situation, I slid easily the phone in, automatically a pair of glasses appear which can temporarily be used as a screen. Then it suddenly hit me: 'He didn't give me the basic clothing....., you didn't even give me the grade 10 outfit!' I chuckled when thinking about it. I activated the change and the scientist clothing with the swastika appeared over me again. With everything ready, I again proceed downstairs towards the area where the speech is held.
