Rai stood in front of the entrance and exit of the apartment, his eyes moving looking around.
“The first mission is finished!“ Rai said while looking at the atmosphere outside the apartment.
Outside the apartment there is a road that is quite large, but it looks quiet and there are only chunks of buildings that fall and are not intact, the vehicle is rusty and shapeless again, and there is only a large, billboards and road signs lay in the middle of the road with a rusty damaged state. Many green grasses and mosses dominate the streets and run along each crack line.
High buildings are built on the side of this big road, Rai does not know where the boundary of this big road and the direction and destination of this highway.
The wind is still out here, but the air is not as fresh as it looks. Normally, if many plants and plants grow in a place or area, the air will be cooler and fresher when inhaled, because plants produce or produce oxygen that causes the environment around the plant to be cooler.
Despite this, the air here could still be inhaled. But Rai, can still smell a bit of an unpleasant scent.
I don't know where that smell came from.
Speaking of which the light from the sky was still shining on this area, Rai had no idea it was coming from a star called the sun or not. For the time being, Rai considered the rays coming from above the sky to be sunlight.
But this light is not hot when the sun in broad daylight, looking at the direction of its shadow which can look a little tilted, the time is likely now towards the afternoon.
“System, what time is it now?“ ask Rai about the system. He better ask the system.
[Now at 14:21.]
“Including noon time even though you want to enter the afternoon, it's worth the light has been somewhat reduced.“
Raising his head upwards, Rai closed his eyes enjoying the soft sunlight hitting his body.
“Now the new problem is I have to walk right or left?“
The problem arises at this time, Rai is confused about which direction and to what place. If it goes without a destination it seems like it will be in vain, just wasting time and effort.
“Hmm .. I have to ask System.“
The only solution that can be obtained is from the system. I hope he knows.
“System, should I go in which direction?“
[Do not know.]
Rai was stunned for a moment after hearing the system's answer. It turns out that it is useless to ask this poorly-informed System. Again he had to think for himself and rely on himself.
[The system recommends exploring from a nearby place, such as the buildings in front of you.]
“Hmm ... good suggestion. Alright I'll follow your advice.“ Rai was about to walk but his steps stopped, “I forgot! The previous note should be stored in the backpack.“
Half-sleeve Rai got into her Jogger pants and reached into the pocket of the shorts inside. Then he put the piece of paper into the bag and he walked towards the tall building in front of this apartment.
Arriving in front of this tall building, Rai stopped and raised his head to look at the height of the building. It is quite tall, about 40 meters high from the ground level. It was higher than the previous apartment building.
The entire building seemed never taken care of or cared for, part of the top of the building had been destroyed and the chunk had fallen into the middle of the road, Rai could also see a little room inside the building.
Soon Rai rushed in through a crack, like a window, and he jumped into it.
The room this time is darker because of the sunlight that many do not manage to enter this building, this room is minimal lighting. In addition, many items or furniture here have been damaged and covered with plants. The floor and walls were dirtier than the apartment where he had appeared all of a sudden.
Every time Rai stepped on there would be ground stepped on as well as dust flying, he would have to hold his breath if the dust flew, it could make him cough. In addition to the dust, he also had to avoid the shards and pieces of already-destroyed items spreading to the floor carefully.
A closer look at this room looks like a lobby from a hotel or inn, because in the middle of the room that juts back there is a long table to the side, looks like a table for receptionists. Rai didn't know for sure, but he guessed like that.
The area that could be called the city was full of high-rise lodging buildings and commercial buildings. In terms of the shape of the building is easy to guess and recognize.
“Is there any information or instructions here? The long desk of the receptionist should have kept something important. I have to check it.“
Think again that the reception desk always stores valuable items or information, therefore Rai approached a long table full of dirt and dust.
Walking to the back of the table, he checked every usual place to store important files, such as drawers or sideboards. After a long time he searched but he did not find anything paper, the result was nil. It was also that he had only found a small piece of scrap paper. The tearing of paper has been damaged by eating insects, weather factors, and humidity.
“It is very difficult to find information about this place. But ... difficult does not mean impossible, therefore I must continue to search and fight until I can find out about what this world really is.“
After saying that, Rai turned around the hotel lobby room, looking for a place that allowed people to store important documents.
Unfortunately after several looks, there was not a single place. This place has been destroyed in a mess, all the broken furniture is split and large holes, it makes Rai difficult to find the items he is looking for.
“Maybe upstairs there's a hint.“
This wide staircase seemed only to go upstairs or the second floor, because after he walked up the stairs to the second floor, there were no more advanced steps to be able to go to the next floor. The stairs end on the second floor.
“Too dark, I need lighting to be able to see.“
“System, I want to buy a flashlight, is the item in System Mall?“ asked Rai while being wary of the surrounding area.
[X1 flashlight light. Price: 2 Coins.]
[Are you sure you want to buy it?]
The price of this flashlight is a little expensive compared to food and drinks, Rai was surprised by this.
“Why is this flashlight more expensive than food?“
[The flashlight has a period of time to live and light up to 10 years of use without having to be charged or replaced.]
“If it is like that, I bought it one.“
Actually Rai did not question the price, but he just wanted to know why the reason the flashlight was more expensive.
A flashlight that can light up for ten years, it's a very good item, it's only natural that the System appreciates that item more expensively.
One flashlight that was not too large in size fell on Rai's right hand, then he activated his flashlight to illuminate this room.
The flashlight makes Rai can see clearly what is in this place, it is only debris that is released and eroded, also the plants that managed to spread inside.
“It looks like this is a place to relax and a place where people wait.“
During Rai's walk, he often saw many long chairs smashed to pieces on the floor, there was also an open room for children to play, it was broken now. There must also be some passageways to the rooms on this floor.
Every now and then he stopped, after walking a few steps, and checked all the items on the floor, in case he got something interesting behind the rubble.
“Photo?“
Putting his flashlight on the floor, Rai took a small piece of photo that had been soiled by the ground.
He wiped the ground with his finger, Rai caught a glimpse of a small family of parents and a daughter being carried by his father.
A smile appeared on Rai's face, he was happy to see this happy family photo. However, Rai's face turned sullen in the next second.
He heard a small sound from one of the hallways to the west.
“That ugly monster again?“
This faint sound was almost the same as the sound Huuzer Crawler made.
“When to harvest experience!“
Storing the photo in the backpack, and taking back the flashlight, Rai walked sagging toward the origin of the strange sound.
Rai's position was getting closer to the direction of the sound, it led him to a room at the very corner of the hall.
The voices that never existed on this earth are heard more and more.
It turned out that the voice was not from a single monster, but from many monsters. The sound was clearly heard when Rai stopped in front of the hotel room which was allegedly the source of the strange sound.
“One ... two ... three ...“
“...Seventeen. There are at least a dozen Huuzer Crawler tails.“
Rai calculated the number of Huuzer Crawlers through their snoring. There are about a dozen tails, probably more than a dozen.
He kept the flashlight in his hoodie pocket, too troublesome if both hands were all used, because his left hand always held a sword from the beginning out of the previous apartment.
S.cf …!
The Double Bladed Sword was divided into two, the light reflection from the blade was slightly visible, even in the slight illumination.
Now Rai was preparing to slaughter monsters and harvest experience points leveling up.
