Mark looked at his Quest and thought to himself. ' So far I have been receiving 5 and 10 EXP for every Quest and the reward and punishment were hidden but today the system has promised me instant level up or minus two skills? I guess this one will be a tougher fight than any I have ever faced. I must win. I don't want to guess what the other punishment will look like as the first will be a huge down side.' Mark got ready for his fight with all the confidence in him. He knew he had to go all out.
The the Match started and Mark stood there waiting for the girl to charge forward but the the girl stood there also waiting for Mark to charge forward.
After sometime the girl decided to start walking forward but slowly.
" Hmm you seem to be the smart type. I thought you would start charging forward like the others but you just keep standing there with that funny stance of yours." Said Poison who stopped walking and stood about ten meters away from Mark.
Mark didn't reply the girl instead he activated his Penetration skill and check Poison's stats.

What Caught Mark's eyes was the skill Venom Bullet. ' This is the only skill she has not used and it states that she can fire from a ten meter range. Is that why she came and stood infront of me about 10 meters apart?' Realization hit Mark and he immidiately activated his X-ray Skill.
The girl shot out 4 bullets from both her hands and the snakes that were at the end of her hands each opened thier mouth and shot out fast, dark, solid venom bullets double times. The bullets were venom in a compressed state and it had the speed of a bullet.
Mark had already seen this moves and Flash Moved away from the previous spot.
This supprised the girl because it seemed as if Mark already knew she was about to attack.
Poison decided to shoot out more bullets and Mark continued Flash Moving away and this was frustrating the girl but Mark got distracted when the system told him he had minus 5 energy which Led to two bullets hitting him on the chest . Immidiately the bullets entered his body, they started dissolving. The system started sending messages nearly every passing second telling Mark a bar of his HP was gone and his energy too was going down at a relatively fast speed like that of his HP.
The successful attack brought a smile on the face of Poison because she knew it was a matter of time before her prey will fall unconscious because of the poison. All she had to do was to wait.
Mark Checked his system and saw that 10 HP had already been taken and 7 of his energy bars were gone and when he looked up he saw that his HP on the VR machine was 50 bars down.
Mark immediately activated his Rage and Sprint skills because he knew he never had any much time left. The girl saw Mark charging forward and decided to transform into the rattle snake form. She spat out venom but Mark flashed step and sent his hand forward with his palm open and delivered a Dragon's Palm. But Poison had seen this move before so she took advantage of her flexibility and went around the attack and quickly wrapped around Mark. Mark could see this move but the girl was way too fast for Mark to stop the move. The snake sent it's tail forward wich was glowing immensely showing how dangerous it was. Mark could see this move as well but with all his might even with his Rage skill activated he could not move for his energy was really low. For the first time Mark was useless with his system. The girl thrusted the stinger on the tail into Mark's shoulder and she started laughing like a mad woman as Mark's body started turning into stone.

' Where were you all this time?' Mark thought.
The girl was still laughing before she saw something strange and stopped laughing with a look of confusion. The stone parts on Mark's body started reverting back to normal and when the girl looked at the face of Mark she could see a smile. A loud bang was heard and the snakes body started falling part by part and Mark's two palms were seen sent forward meaning he had delivered two Dragon's Palm for the first time. When Mark looked up he saw that his HP was left 4 and when he checked the system he discovered his HP was left 15 and energy 23.
' Phew that was close'
