After trying various methods, Nassim was finally able to click on the square with a shadowy figure.
*Click*
Do you want to install the game Magic apocalypse?
A little icon appeared on the mysterious square. The little icon was in the shape of a blue downward arrow that bobbed in the continuous up and down.
' The name changed.' Nassim thought.
' This is really like seeing an interesting app and being excited to get started before being interrupted by the download notification. Fine Install, I hope it doesn't take too long.' Nassim thought as he went to sit on his newly made bed to get comfortable while he waited.
*Bloop*
Just as that sound appeared in Nassim's mind a large amount of binary code appeared in his mind. Before he could react all the code compiled into the depths of his brain.
Just like with his memories, everything stored in his brain, he was able to recall all the information with crystal clarity. Nassim if he wanted to would be able to recite each and every one of millions of line of code. With close to 100 percent accuracy.
' I should have put more effort into learning code. Then perhaps I would be able to read it.' Nassim thought with regret before throwing that thought away since it couldn't change the current situation.
'That was quick, it only took about 30 seconds.' Nassim gulped in anticipation while he clicked on the square.
What appeared was a black screen. Before long words written in blood appear.
Only the strongest survival instinct will help you live! Consume your enemies and grow stronger. There is no end. There is only a world full of enemies and foes. Kill or Die!
' Some of the words are different from the game lines in my memories.' Nassim thought, recalling the unusually clear memories from his previous life.
The words of blood slowly faded into the darkness followed by the empty background showing the familiar start screen. There was the same figure however it was now in a black void with the only that existed other than the figure was the ground below it's feet.
Towards the bottom of the screen were three bolded options in blood, Start, Research, and Subject. Underneath those in smaller text were Shop, Options, Book, Journal, and Town.
Nassim comparing the start screen with the one in his crystal clear memory. He found that
other than some minor changes in the aesthetic the only difference was that the previous Rank option has been replaced by Town.
Nassim ignoring the new options, decided that since everything has been similar with the previous world game, Magic Survival. It would probably be better to see if the game mechanics are the same as well instead of wasting his time on an option that he might not fully understand until he played first.
' Start! ' Nassim said in his head with excitement.
The mysterious figure disappeared into the black void and soon the words Class Selection appeared. Nassim with great familiarity clicked on the only option available, the basic wizard.
Next was the selection of the location where Nassim would play. The words Array Zone appeared with arrows on both sides which were grayed out. Beneath the words was a quick description of the location.
The Array Zone is located in an abandoned city located outside the laboratory. The city districts were transformed to zones to investigate the transforming process of spirits.
Nassim after reading the description clicked onto the play button underneath. The screen faded into black before the figure appeared on a gray land.
Not before long, blobs black herds of specks appeared to attract the character. The number of the groups of black specks increased as time went on.
' The game's spirit still seems the same. So far the only difference is the improved graphics.' Nassim controlled the figure away from the blobs of spirits.
30 second in bigger sized spirits started appearing and entered the range of Nassim. The figure that Nassim was playing shot out an white beam of energy that hit the big spirit destroying a third of its size.
A bit away from Nassim was a small blue sphere of energy. Noticing the blue sphere Nassim led the figure to collect the blue ball.
An empty bar appeared on top of Nassim's character and a quarter of the bar filled up when he collected the blue energy.
1 minutes in the amount of Spirit blobs around Nassim increased exponentially while a new species appeared. This new spirit is smaller than the regular sized spirit however the center of the blobs were white.
30 Seconds later the hoard of Spirits of behind Nassim continued to increase. Needing only a single blue orb before the bar becomes filled, he decided to take a bit of a risk to go for a blue orb in the path of one of the small spirits that's in front of him.
Buzz
While getting the orb he got too close to the spirit and allowed it to get close enough to damage his character taking a fifth of his health. Luckily Nassim was still able to collect the orb filling the bar.
The world paused while 4 options appeared in front of his eyes. Without hesitation chose the option he was most familiar with.
Tsunami
Coming back to the game the hoard of Spirits getting closer the sound of waves resounded in Nassim's ears. The booming roar similar to trains and jet fighters rang.
A massive wave of water that swallowed the hoard behind him. Quickly following the first wave was a second wave of equaling size and ferocity.
The hoard behind Nassim was easily wiped out by the twin tsunami waves. The bar above Nassim's head quickly filled as his screen froze once more giving him 4 options.
Cloaking!
Cloaking allows for the user to be able to phase through your enemies but still take damage.
Proliferation!
Proliferation causes all magic effects to get an increase 20 percent to their duration times.
Incineration!
Incineration allows the user to gain the ability to breathe first to burn their enemies to ashes.
Magic Recovery!
Magic Recovery allows for the user to not level up while keeping 25 percent of their collected magic.
Taking a glance at the options, Nassim chose cloaking. 'Cloaking will allow me not to be blocked and trapped by the spirit and give me a chance to escape.'
After thinking that thought Nassim delved back into the game. Continuously running away from the now replenished hoard of Spirits.
At the 5 minute mark the screen turns the color red with blood dripping down the sides. That wasn't the only transformation that occured as giant Suicide bomber spirits where surrounding Nassim.
The Giant spirits with their gigantic blood cores centers draw closer and closer by the second. Showing no concern to their fellow brethren that were getting shredded and fried.
The area around Nassim could only be described as the apocalypse itself. Giant waves of Water swallowed the unlucky spirits that were it's path.
Large meteors from the sky crashed into the hoards of spirits crushing them. Around Nassim was a high powered electric ring that fried all entities that drew close.
' F**k, Cloaking is still on cool down. One bomber will be able to take me down if it gets to close.* Even though Nassim was trying his best to think of a way out of this situation, at around 9 minute and 30 seconds a giant bomber crossed through the electric ring and blew.
* Explosion*
Game Over.
