The Author's POV
Chapter 15
Soon after the professor initiated the simulation, my surroundings started to change.
Thick lush trees started appearing from beneath my feet followed by soft and crumbly soil that caused my feet to slowly sink.
My visibility slowly started getting blocked by the towering trees that started sprouting from the ground at an incredible speed.
Extending my hand forward to touch a tree, I was immensely surprised by the realistic sensation that spread through my fingers. Running my hand along the tree trunk it felt like I was touching the lines and wrinkles of an old man's face. It had an uneven surface where I could feel the flaky nature of the dark exterior, that crumbled and peeled, with a crackling sound at the slightest pressure exerted by my fingers.
It almost felt like I was touching the real thing.
It didn't feel like I was touching a bunch of codes, but an actual tree.
"How intriguing..."
[Rank 1750 Ren Dover - Team points: 6]
As I was busy being mesmerized by how realistic the trees were, a notification popped up in front of me.
Seeing the notification, I quickly swiped left to discard it and fell into deep thought.
The game was simple.
Each student had one point, and every time a teammate died the team would lose a team point.
The teams that reached 0 points would then be automatically eliminated and hence lose the game.
The only way to gain points was through completing the hidden tasks available on the map.
At the end of the test, there will be a ranking list that ranks the teams in accordance with their performance.
Taking a good look at my surroundings, my teammates were nowhere in sight.
In fact, although the professor never mentioned this to us when briefing us on the rules, I already knew that everyone was going to be separated from each other.
Well, I was the one who created the scenario in the first place.
The main goal of this test was to survive for 1 hour.
Although it sounded easy, it was in fact not. If it were that easy what sort of test would this be?
The lack of information provided by the professor was intentional because this essentially meant that there was only 1 rule.
And that was to 'survive'
Each person was directly given a weapon, which was automatically given to them depending on the weapon that they had registered on the first day of the academy.
In my case, a sleek black katana rested on the side of my hips.
-Shua! -Shua!
Swinging it a couple of times to adjust myself to the weight of the sword, I nodded in satisfaction.
It feels identical to the katana provided to us by the academy.
Sheathing the katana back into the scabbard, I warily glanced towards my surroundings.
When telling us the rules, the professor never mentioned anything apart from the fact that you must survive, and the more teammates survive with you at the end of the test, the more points your team had.
He purposely left out the details in regards to killing, and because of this, the students automatically assumed that killing was allowed.
Which was his true purpose.
