Chapter 93: CHAPTER 92 - First Main Scenario Complete 2.

Alex had another question that it wanted to ask the system, and it was about the advantage others gained from Alex's disadvantage.

What does that mean?

Simple: if the creatures of the maze started to chase Alex, then they would probably ignore the others. Searᴄh the novel(F~)ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Maybe those abominations did kill some humans—the ones who came in their path or couldn't run fast.

But that didn't take away others' advantage.

With the creatures chasing after Alex, all the humans had to do was wait the time out, and as soon as the beasts were out of their sight or far from them, they could just come out of their hiding spot and go on with it.

Alex wanted an answer to that, but when he saw the cautious and fearful looks of the humans in his surroundings, he kept quiet.

His trying to question that thing would just push the humans—who felt like there was a special relationship between Alex and the system—against himself.

If he were to ask that question, it would mean that he was dissatisfied with the humans being able to survive so easily.

If he asked that, then he would be turning the whole crowd against himself, and although Alex knew that he was strong, he didn't think that he would be able to defeat that many humans at the same time.

So, being the wiser, Alex decided to stay silent; after a while though, he got his answer.

"Bro, you know, people are thinking that we had it easy because of that guy, but in reality, it wasn't."

A man with dark blue hair spoke to another one.

Both of them looked like brothers, and the one who spoke was pointing at Alex with fright clear in his eyes; he didn't want to get noticed pointing at Alex, after all.

"What do you mean?"

The other guy, who was probably the older brother, inquired with a frown.

Both of them were separated the moment the maze rose up, only to meet up in the final zone, so none of them knew what the other had gone through.

"Well, when I was rushing through the maze, trying to find the final zone, I kept an eye on the creatures dropping out of the wall, and the number of monsters being spawned was low."

The younger one replied, but then he paused dramatically and waited until his brother nodded at him, gesturing for him to continue.

"But you see, from the moment I saw the creatures' focus shifting away from us, I noticed another thing.

I noticed that the number of beasts being summoned had increased by folds, so much so that I found a new one every few steps."

The younger one spoke as he trembled, recalling the creature's look and the event where he was almost caught by one of the creatures.

"Now that you mention it, I did as well."

The older brother, who himself realized the truth in his brother's words, nodded his head thoughtfully.

"So, we didn't have it easy; we were just lucky to not get stuck in a situation from which we couldn't escape."

The younger brother's words caused Alex, who had been eavesdropping on their conversation, to squint his eyes.

[The Remover of Obstacles is saying that it was your fault for ignoring the importance of God's messages.]

[The Eternal Devotee of Rama is looking at you with a smile.]

[The Divine Healer of Mankind is looking at your wounds with a frown.]

[The Enchantress of Love is saying that you look dashing in serious expression.]

[The Divine Arbiter of Justice and Order wants you to mingle more with your kind.]

[The Dragon Warrior is looking at you with a curious expression.]

[The Metal Detector is saying that you won't get a girlfriend with that attitude.]

Alex shook his head. From the corner of his eyes, he looked at the notifications that he had been receiving, making him reconsider his decision to keep these particular gods unmute.

Alex had learned from this scenario that he needed some eyes up there—someone who could keep him updated about things he couldn't look at.

For that reason, Alex chose to keep certain gods off mute.

Now, why some?

Well, Alex didn't have the least bit of trust in those guys; maybe one day they wouldn't be in a good mood and would want to take it out on him by providing wrong information.

What would he do then?

So, it was better to have many options, as that could give him a better idea of the situation.

The AI, who could almost guess what Alex must be thinking, commented with a sigh, causing Alex's gaze to freeze for a second.

The scene of the moments when he had reached closest to death—one before the apocalypse, and one during the Smilodon incident—replayed in his mind and he could remember her presence in both of those events.

In one, she just came in and then went away, leaving him some things.

In the second one, however, she interfered and even helped him, only to face the consequences.

*Inhale**Exhale*

But then he took a deep breath and decided to shift his focus to the remaining time before the scenario was marked as complete.

[00:00:58]

Around an hour was left, and although Alex was sure that no one would try to attack him, he still stayed vigilant, observing every single movement of the humans in his surroundings.

It wasn't that he was being ungrateful or something; he knew that he would've surely died if not for the interference of 'Certain God', but what could he do now?

All he could do was try to get stronger, and maybe in the future, he could repay her debt.

[The Eternal Devotee of Rama is wondering why you don't seem interested in other humans.]

[The Dragon Warrior is saying that it may be related to your past.]

[Several Gods are nodding their heads.]

[The Divine Arbiter of Justice and Order is saying that you can talk to her about anything.]

[The Remover of Obstacles is saying that you could do the same with him.]

[Several Gods agree as well.]

The gods kept sending messages, trying to get Alex talking while Alex just stayed alert, ready for anything.

What about the system?

Well, she did stay there for a while, trying to get a reaction out of Alex, but after a while of unsuccessful attempts, she left with a huff of annoyance, wanting to find some peace by looking at the images she had captured today.

The abomination-like creatures of the maze were still surrounding the final zone.

Some left, wanting to look for more prey as the humans left in this area were all inside the green zone, while others waited here as they devoured the remains of the humans.

But their movements, for some reason, seemed to be hurried; it was as if they knew that the scenario was about to end soon, and they wouldn't have the luxury to eat their fill after it ended.

So, they wanted to devour as much as they could in the time they had.

Just like that, the first scenario came to an end.
