THE DEVILS CASTLE CHAPTER SEVENTEEN: INFILTRATION
The night was dead silent. Sixth Broadway was once a lively and merry area, but everything changed after the war. Everything was now ruined. Nevertheless, there were still a few taller structures that had survived the war and stood proudly among the wreckage. One of them was the mall. It had clearly seen better days as the city's largest mall. It no longer even had a proper roof on it. As if a meteor had broken through the structure, a large hole could be seen on its top. Still, during the war, it was a good place for people to hide. The only issue was that a group of armed criminals were living there. In the shadows, there were currently two security guards keeping an eye on the mall's vicinity by leaning against the walls. Their jobs made them both look bad. They were neither paying attention. This was not uncommon conduct. The fact that this was the base of the Vulture was known to every civilian and lackey in the area of Sixth. Everyone else had fled when the first person
THE DEVILS CASTLE CHAPTER EIGHTEEN: KILL
Mike was barely able to control himself any longer. Mike's expression changed to one of smugness and arrogance, much like that of the robbers he had encountered, as soon as he entered the storage door. "Now what? Oh my God! When everyone else is drinking and playing poker, why do I have to be back here? The third time this week! A rogue speaking from one of the rooms said the words. He was lamenting the fact that he was supposed to be on guard duty near the storage entrance. He turned his gun on Mike when he noticed his unfamiliar face. Who in the world are you? He pressed. "Hey, man, I'm with you! I was introduced to the group by Drey. I even received Tom's blessing! With his hands in the air, Mike explained. The thug seemed relieved when Mike mentioned the name of the captive and the group's leader. He still didn't put his gun down, though. “Drey? Then exactly where is he?” He pressed. “Oh. So you don't know about the mission of Drey and Tom? Mike asked him, his expression
THE DEVILS CASTLE CHAPTER NINETEEN: THE MAJOR
The Captain!Only one person ever held such a position and was connected to the Vulture. It has to be the rebel's secret personnel.As he adjusted to the brightness of the phone screen, Mike squinted his eyes.He desired to decline the call. He didn't want to get involved in the city turf war or the rebels.He was well aware that, by killing the Vulture, he had essentially agreed to eventually oppose the rebellion. They would fight when something went wrong.Even though he had successfully killed the Vulture, Mike would not relax.In addition to his excellent gaming skills, he had been successful in achieving his objective due to his adversary's contempt for him.The Vulture had not seen him as a threat from the beginning.This had worked in Mike's favor, and he had killed the man.However, once the army got involved, things would change.An army would adhere to strict rules and not commit the same errors as low-level thugs.He didn't want to face an entire army with a lot of men and
THE DEVILS CASTLE CHAPTER TWENTY: BOOM!
The girl coughed as Mike removed the cloth from her mouth. She looked directly at him while keeping it down, as instructed by Mike. The reason she had ended up at the base was because she was pretty and delicate.Mike's eyes begged for her to be untied.Mike did not respond right away. Instead, he asked her a question.“Hold up, could you first introduce yourself? a suitable introduction."He had to make sure she wouldn't bother him in any way. Mike hoped that she would continue to cooperate because so far she had kept her voice down.Despite the fact that the Vulture might have taken advantage of her, he would still keep his distance from her. In contrast to Colleen, with whom he had developed a bond, she was still a stranger to him.However, that was not the primary explanation for why Mike refused to untie her.“My name is Maggie, and I am an apprentice nurse at St. Joanna Hospital. I was hiding with the others at the Harles Street Underground Subway Station before they caught me.
THE DEVILS CASTLE CHAPTER TWENTY ONE: REWARD
Mike did not immediately run over to start the generator when the explosion was over. Instead, he patiently awaited to determine whether the criminals were still alive.Within a short distance, the grenade had sparked a powerful explosion. Despite the fact that they could not have survived, Mike wanted to be safe. He could not afford to remain vigilant at this time.He walked over to the diesel generator and turned it back on after waiting until there were no more sounds coming from the room.It sounded like a worn-out generator. Except for the room where the criminals were located, the corridor and all of the rooms had regained power.The grenade had destroyed all of its lights and walls.Even though Mike was already aware of the smell of blood, the scene inside the room still caused his stomach to turn.To avoid vomiting, he had to hold himself back.Before he took the money, he made it a point to force himself to confirm that each of the criminals was dead.Sadly, the criminals had
THE DEVILS CASTLE CHAPTER ONE: ENTERING THE GAME
It was August, and the sky was bright with a harsh sun.Even though the thick curtains were drawn shut, the venomous sunlight was still visible.The only light in the room came from it, which shone through the gaps in the curtains to form a square border.Ring!Once more, the phone rang.It went to the answering machine after three rings.“Mike? Doctor Frank is here. You will turn eighteen years old in one year. You will completely lose your chance if you wait to start your genetic treatment!As usual, polite and official.Mike focused on the game cartridge in his hand and ignored the message.Bright red color with a thumbnail-sized size.Mike pushed the cartridge that had consumed all of his savings into the virtual helmet's cartridge slot after checking it.Tuck!The speaker of the virtual helmet let out an alert.He didn't bother.When it came to an underground game, there was evidently neither a manufacturer's warning nor a safety hazard warning.This game made the claim that it c
THE DEVILS CASTLE CHAPTER TWO: SEARCH
He had not forgotten why he had joined the underworld game in the first place: to make enough money to pay for treatment for his genetic disease.However, he would need to become strong enough to do that. He could only get more money and good equipment in-game when he was strong enough, and when he had enough of those, he could trade them in for money in real life. He was now without anything. A lack of character traits, an empty inventory, and no skills or equipment. Even his rating was extremely low. He clearly did not yet meet the requirements. He would require additional time to become stronger. However, neither did he have nearly as much time. In real life, he only had about a year to live. But in the game itself? He didn't know exactly how much time he had, but from the virtual game time, it didn't look like he had much more time than in real life. the reason why he needed to make the most of every chance to grow stronger. An opportunity of this kind lay right in front
THE DEVILS CASTLE CHAPTER THREE: BACKSTAB
Before putting the backpack on his back, he gave the corpse another look, then turned to the water bottle and canned food. The lighter was always in his shirt pocket. His attire had already begun to resemble that of the city's civilian population before he entered the dungeon in front of him. Fortunately, it was not damaged.Mike was getting ready to leave, dagger in hand.He had no more reason to stay in the empty room.Mike's retreating steps accelerated as the sunlight slowly faded through the gap in the tightly sealed window.The criminals would come out at night.Because Mike didn't intend to confront a gang of criminals head-on, he wouldn't stay in this room that gave away his presence.At some point, any house would become a target for raiders."The sewers or drains would be a much better hiding spot!"Mike was contemplating his next move.It didn't have to be cozy; all that mattered was that it be big enough for him to hide.The underground seemed like the best option because
