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
THE DEVILS CASTLE CHAPTER FOUR: SKILL
The pursuer's chest was entered by the entire dagger.With an incredulous expression on his face, the pursuer collapsed as he was about to counterattack with the kitchen knife in his hand. He was looking at his chest and the dagger that was deep inside him.The pursuer was unable to comprehend how a person who appeared to be harmless could suddenly turn into such a deadly killer, leading to his death.The same was true for Mike. He was totally perplexed. The stench of the dying man's blood brought back memories of what he had done as he stared at him.His senses were stimulated by the bright red blood as he looked at the very real-looking corpse. He was so sickened by the fact that he had killed the pursuer with his own hands that his stomach turned and he threw up.Mike finished his work and collapsed to the ground, exhausted and weak.His face was covered in snot and tears, making him appear silly and messy."Are you finished now?"He instinctively raised his head in response to the
THE DEVILS CASTLE CHAPTER FIVE: GUNSHOT
A half-empty pack of cigarettes fell into Mike’s hands.[Name: Cigarettes][Type: Miscellaneous][Rarity: Common][Attribute: Has a small effect on fear and anxiety.][Effect: None][Able to bring out of dungeon: Yes][Remark: In the face of true fear or panic, it’s better than nothing!]A second lighter was also there, in addition to the pack of cigarettes. The newly discovered lighter had the same design and details as the ones Mike had previously acquired.Mike put the new lighter and the cigarettes he was holding in his shirt's pocket after looking at them.He did not use tobacco.Firstly, due to his health, and secondly, due to his financial difficulties, he was unable to be.He kept his distance due to his genetic condition and the fact that a pack of cigarettes can cost as much as two meals in the real world.However, he would not mind smoking while playing the game.Naturally, this was not the time.Mike sat down, carefully examining the body once more. He left after verifying

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 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 SIXTEEN: SHIFTING
“Aaaaaah!”The man who screamed was stabbed in the heart by Mike. The man's lips slightly moved as he passed away, but he did not say anything.Mike was icy and cruel.He had no intention of letting him go at all.Especially now that he was aware of the trade between the leader of the rebellion and the Vulture.He had been informed that the Vulture's associates were all evil.He now truly understood what those words meant.Also, Mike didn't think he was a good person. From a young age, he had struggled to survive, and he had encountered a lot of darkness in his life to the point where he could no longer tell the good from the bad. He did not, however, think of himself as a bad person. He was somewhere in the middle, and he refused to change.After taking a deep breath, Mike gathered his thoughts.That was not something to consider right now. He had to concentrate on the current situation.[Slashing: Inflicts 10 Damage to target HP, crippling target...][Slashing: Inflicts 10 Damage to
THE DEVILS CASTLE CHAPTER FIFTEEN: INTERROGATION
"Are you mentally ill?" Mike got a grunt from Colleen.He replied, "No."As if she thought he was crazy, Colleen's eyes widened."I am aware of what I am saying and what I want. I have to do this, even though I am aware that the Vulture's base will be closely guarded and dangerous. It's a fantastic chance!” In a serious tone, Mike said.“The Vulture pursued us with his men. He clearly does not want us to live, and he will send even more men after this failed attempt. He won't stop until he kills us, as you said. That scumbag will do anything to safeguard his ego and pride. It is preferable to show him our teeth than to flee like rats! Added Mike.He took a deep breath before continuing because he had become quite agitated."The next team that the Vulture sends won't be like the one we just killed," Because of what we did, they will be more watchful, making it harder for us to strike! Also, don't even consider setting them on fire. They will unquestionably be carrying larger guns and w

[Shooting: Lethal attack, Inflicts 100 Damage to target HP, (50 Firearm Weapon (Light Firearm) (Basic) X2), Target dies…..]The battle log appeared in front of Mike while he watched the headless body fall to the ground. He quickly moved towards the remaining man.While he moved, he also peaked at his Skill Window.[3 Effective Hits, Skill Acquired: Firearm Weapon (Light Firearm) (Basic)][Name: Firearm Weapon (Light Firearm)(Basic)][Related Attributes: Strength, Constitution, Spirit][Skill Type: Offensive][Effect: You have mastered the skill of handling handguns, submachine guns, rifles, assault rifles, and sniper rifles, 10% Increase in Damage][Consumes: Stamina][Prerequisite: F in Strength, F in Constitution, F in Spirit][Remarks: You might have acquired the firearm skill but you’re no sharpshooter yet!]Mike suddenly had the impression that he was an expert gunman, just like he had with the dagger skill before. He had not only learned new things about guns, but he also knew h
THE DEVILS CASTLE CHAPTER THIRTEEN: EXPLODING HEAD
The shattered wood and walls were hit by bullets.From the blast point, debris shot everywhere.However, Mike had already rolled to the side to get out of the way before the shooting started.That was all thanks to Colleen because if it was him alone, he would have been crushed under the crumbling wall or shot to death without the [Evade] skill she had taught him.Bang! Bang! Bang!The guns continued to fire.They had been startled by his gunshot, as he had anticipated. Even if they would have to shoot down the entire wall, they were eager to kill him.However, M1905 bullets were unable to penetrate the concrete walls. While waiting for a chance to strike, he backed up against the wall, took a few deep breaths, and held the M1095 tightly.In fact, Mike would have continued to hide and used the dagger skill to backstab the thugs until he eliminated them all if they hadn't noticed something was wrong.However, as he had anticipated, his gun skills were pathetic.He had failed to hit the
