"Please, Open up!"

"Please… Please, Open up!" He helplessly cried, frantically banging on the force field.
Right before the timer hit zero, Jayden's banging obvious agitated the Force field in turn, allowing the young scared waltz in, just in a nick of time.

[ACQUIRED REWARDS:]
[10 STAT POINTS]
[20 TRIXUM]
[10 EXP POINTS]
Laying helplessly on the ground, Jayden rear the blue words that hovered in front of his eyes, sighing earnestly with relief.
"Fuck this shit, that was extremely emotional!" Jayden earnestly said, slowly raising back to his feet's.
Immediately he was up, his eyes was immediately greeted by a immensely beautiful sight. The buildings that surrounded him were all magnificent and gigantic in size, soaring high into the bright blue sky. The entire sight was illuminated with bright Azure, Jade, Ember and Scarlet colors, creating a brilliant mix of lights and colors.
"Whoa, this place is awesome!" He exclaimed, gasping in awe.
"Where am I?"
[WELCOME TO NEVREX EMPIRE]
[YOU'RE CURRENTLY IN THE BACKWATER DISTRICT, NEW YORK CITY]
"Nevrex empire…. Backwater District… New York City, how's this even possible?" Jayden blurted in confusion, frantically staring at the surrounding environment.
"When I was alive everything here was in the game, Nevrex Empire.
Everything looks the same but feels totally different. I'm getting a really eerie feeling about this world" He promptly added, obviously still confused.
"Damnit, that's not what I should be thinking about now. Me coming here is obviously a second chance at life and this time, I'm going to fully maximize my time here.
For now, I'll focus on levelling up and later, I'll find out the secrets about this world"
"Hmm, Backwater District aye! If this world is anything like the game, this place is meant for a ton of beginner players, to gradually level up and survive a lot of dangerous obstacles. Once that's complete, they can move on to a much harder stage" He explained as he stared solemnly at his surrounding.
[BACKWATER DISTRICT IS A PRELIMINARY STAGE FOR BEGINNER PLAYERS. HERE, PLAYERS ARE EXPECTED TO LEVEL UP WHILE SURVIVING A AET OF EXCRUCIATING TASKS AND QUESTS.
PLAYERS ONCE ATTAINING LEVEL 15 WILL THEN BE ALLOWED TO PROCEED TO THE NEXT STAGE, PLAYER CITY]
"Just as I thought, this world is really similar to game but I still feel like there's a total difference. For example, the actual game didn't have these Player roles and I'm sure that's not the only difference.
Well, all I have to do is pass this stage to get to Player City. I'm sure I'd get answers to all my questions" He thought to himself while he earnestly stroked his chin.
Soon he realized that he had forgotten about the rewards he had acquired. This prompted him to activate his System.
"My rewards, Damnit…. So what do we have here"
[ACQUIRED REWARDS:]
[10 STAT POINTS]
[20 TRIXUM]
[10 EXP POINTS]
"Hmm, I guess I'll invest my Experience Points immediately and then put my Trixum into savings"

"It's always cool to see this"
"It seems like, when I leveled up all my Stat's increased one, excluding my Healthy and Mana which increased by ten…. Interesting.
Now to invest my Stat Points. I've got ten Points and four Trait Stat, I guess I'll start by invest one each at a time"
Immediately he gave the command, the investment process began.

"Now, this is where the problem lies. I don't know what a Raider is, so I'm not sure on what Stat should be enhanced"
"Hmm… They were four different Classes; Raider, Assassin, Berserker and Ranger.
I'd say, an Assassin obviously needs to have enhanced agility and sense. A Berserker might be likened to a Tank, if that's true, then they've got to have enhanced Strength and Vitality. Now, it comes down to Raider and Ranger.
Oh forget it, I'll invest the last two on my Agility and Strength"

"Finally I'm done with that, It's time I learn how to play this game, properly" He said, slowly walking into the District.
For some reason, the City seemed eerily empty and void of any lifeform.
"What the heck is going on here?"
"Aren't they other players?. If they aren't, this place is just going to be a complete waste of time"

"Finally something to do, this all look simple and it seems like they isn't any penalty for not completing the quest.
Alright, it's time I get to work" He said, continuing his venture deep into Backwater District.
Not long after his expedition, he came across signs of Life but It turned out they were already dead. Two players were seen, laying dead on the ground behind an alley. It was clear that mouth players actually tried to kill themselves over resources.
"Shit, this guy's were fighting each other" Jayden said in disgust, trying to look away.
Something strange suddenly caught his attention. Three red glowing pills were seemingly hovering over the ground, extremely close to the corpse of the two players.
"What are those things?" He commented, slowly walking towards the grotesque items.
Arriving at the glowing items, he hurriedly tried to grab them, indirectly assimilating the pills.

"Hmm, that means if I take three Blood pills, It's effects will multiply by three… That's cool"
"One down, three to go. I wonder what these guys were fighting for, it might be important, I better look for it"
Immediately, he began his search for the mystery Item the two dead players were supposedly battling to get. Not quite long after he began his search, he discovered a bronze colored box hovering on the ground.
Without any form of hesitation, he reach out for the box. Unlike the Blood pills which he assimilated and stored in his Inventory, the bronze glowing box just remained in it's digital form.

"Whoa, these are nice… Sabre Daggers" He said, automatically causing the pair of daggers to appear.
The blades of the dagger were obviously made from lasers, as it glowed bright Jade.
"I'm not a fan of daggers, so I can't really use these… In that case, what do I with it?"
[WOULD YOU LIKE TO SELL UNDESIRED ITEM?]
"That's right. In the actual game, players could sell damaged or unwanted items to get money" He thought to himself immediately he read the bright Azure words.
"Yes!"

"Hmm, Bleed… It looks promising" He excitedly commented while he mischievously stroked his chin.
"I'm keeping this one, till I find a better weapon" He promptly added, frantically swinging the Katana in mid air.
After his seeming practice swing, he shifted his attention to the last item he got from the crate, which were a pair of black, grotesque looking gloves.
