"This…" Her servant tells the truth and yet, she still wanted to refute it but nothing could come out from her mouth.
The Luo Clan is without a doubt, a strong clan. Their title as the second strongest clan out of ten major clans is not an exaggeration but too bad, all of that is a thing of the past.
Since the apocalypse, the Ten Clans starts to decline, especially the strongest among them. the Ichizora Clan who rule the first city of Dahara, Fyrst Dahara City.
The undead makes its appearances from there and the city is top-notch in terms of offense and defense but in a single night, it was turned into ruins.
Most of its clan members have died tragically and the bad news is that no one knows how the apocalypse even begins, it just started.
After the first city is destroyed, the undead starts to spread and they are heading in a certain direction and that is the tenth city where the weakest clan out of ten clans reside.
In the tenth city, the remaining clans somehow banded up together to defend the tenth city but it was futile.
That was the briefcase.
"The Clan Head tells us earlier to make ally instead of an enemy no matter what happens, did you forget that he even tell you to forget what just happen? We can't do anything reckless even though the city is small, I get information that it has powerful guild backing it."
The small city is at the same time a base of a huge guild in the game, the guild decides to build it in case something happens on the HQ.
"Then what you suggest? Are we going to let that fellow scot-free after trampling our dignity?"
"There is no other way Young Princess, I have heard rumors that he is very formidable and has a lot of capabilities. Other information than those is impossible to find, everything about him is severely limited."
Better play safe than sorry. Hearing those words, she considers the matter once more.
The fact that the player whose name is Tornado has his information severely limited means that he is a very careful person and as she continues wondering, five minutes had passed.
"Ugh fine. Just you wait! When I get my player's ID and successfully passed the player's examination. I'll get stronger and pummeled him to death."
.

.
.
"Player's examination?" Tornado asked with a frown.
As soon both of them entered the huge building, they are walking their way to Alpha Wolf's office. They walked on a wide hallway.
It has a transparent window by its right side while the left side is doors every fifteen meters.
"Un." Uno nodded, "you know that right? As soon as we conquered the sixth city. The game allows NPCs to turned their self into a player."
"Yeah I know about it, but NPC could leveling up, why would they wanted to become a player?"
I mean, Non-Player Character or in short NPC is a manmade AI and it was ridiculous to think they could turn into a player.
"I know what you thinking and yeah it was ridiculous at first but the game allows it." He then stopped as soon a beauty passed them shoulder by shoulder, Uno turned around to only find the back of the beauty, slowly getting far away.
Confused by Uno's sudden halt, Tornado asked. "What's wrong?" But no answer, wondering why he look back, he follows his gaze to the back of the beauty.
"You know her?"
Uno shook his head and continue walking and Tornado follows, "it's the opposite. I never saw her." Uno then narrowed his eyes as he pinches his chin, tried to remembering something.
In the game, he has a passive ability to remember anything he saw or hear, he could also erase any memory at will. He knows everyone who works here but that beauty right there, there is no trace of memory about her. Whether her name or seen it somewhere else, none of it.
"Is it possible that she's the young princess from the Luo Clan?"
Uno shook his head, "that is impossible, I saw her face in the information tablet this morning."
Then is it possible that she is an intruder? But why? The city is small and resources are limited. There is nothing here, Uno then remembers what she looks like.
She has black hair and sharp eyes, her height is around 160 centimeters, her facial features are that of a goddess and her waist is slim, her slender legs and her skin is jade white.
"Tornado, I get bad premonition about her. Should we prepare some men to get her?" Uno asked.
"Bad premonition?" He turned his head to the beauty to only see that she was gone.
"It can't be that she's your lost long daughter that wanted to kill you after you slaughter everyone except her but that should be impossible, she has a face beautiful enough to compare with a goddess."
"Is that sarcasm? If it is, let me tell you this, if I did have one, I would be dead a long time ago. That kind of setup is mean one thing, I am the villain and the girl is the heroine. Full of plot armor."
"Also, it should be impossible. I've been here for only five years, I don't remember that I had a daughter. If I did, I would live in a peaceful village and having a good life."
Uno must raise his guard now and then, he also had to prepare for the worse. Looks like he couldn't have a good night's sleep after knowing an intruder successfully enter the building.
"I'll send some of our best scouts to keep an eye on her. Oh yeah, can you continue about that player examination?"
He has been away for some time that he doesn't know any common knowledge, in fact, for the last three years, he was disappeared without anyone knowing. It was only three months ago he returned and suddenly get a bunch of missions.
Thus, Uno continued.
"NPCs taking the Player's Examination to get a player ID. As long as an NPC has it, they will be able to get access what we players had. Perks, skill trees, passive ability, skills, and even the map of Dahara."
"Dahara is a huge continent and despite that, it only belongs to one country with ten major cities."
There are a lot of resources available and if you become a player, getting them would be easier! Players are helped by the system while A.I without player ID is just ordinary humans that could only level up.
"Who doesn't want a map that could be used to mark places or even enemy?" He explained.
It's convenient after all, if one finds a mine full of material, one could mark it and come back later.
"I see. So is that mean the majority of them wanted to get stronger to protect their clan and families, or to become famous and rich?"
"Well, you could put it that way. "
The map is located on the left bottom side and it was quite alike with GTA V maps or any other games . It has many features like putting a mark if you found a zombie horde or a hidden location in the city.
The ten cities are very large that players having a hard time remembering each place so most of them only remember the main places. Searching for a hidden location is a very common thing to do but great danger waiting.
"How many NPCs going to take the examination?"
"A hundred but I think only ten people will pass it."
Hearing Uno's words, Tornado's eyes shot up in astonishment. There were a hundred people and only ten passes it? Just how hard the examination is? If it is very hard, what makes him confident to say that only ten people succeeded? Surely it wouldn't be that many. Tornado thought himself.
"Oh? What makes you say that?" He asked with a smile.
"You'll see," he smiled back, "Put that aside, I think this examination has something to do with the reason why Alpha Wolf told you to meet him."
"Do you know the reason?"
He quickly shook his head, "nope, my guess is that you going to train someone so that she could pass the exam, adding the ten to eleven."
"Train someone? she? Wait hold on." He said with a deep frown, "I'm not a coach!"
"Well, it was only a guess so it could be off the mark but if my guess is correct, I would love to see how you going to train her." Maybe just Tornado's feeling but he saw Uno's lips forming a snirk for a brief second.
