World Travel Simulator System In Modern Society

[Followed by the weakening of the zombie virus in your body, you heard a flop sound beside you. You noticed that Lynn seemed to have been affected by the invisible waves and her body had fallen on the ground weakly.]

[Compared to you whose power had only been weakened by the invisible waves, Lynn was on the verge of losing consciousness but before she lost consciousness, you heard her mutter, "Eat… me…"]

[You knew the implication of Lynn's last words. It was none other than killing her and devouring her zombie virus so that you can become stronger and have more chances of defeating the mastermind.]

[You were well aware that you have to become as strong as possible before your fight against the mastermind. The invisible waves generated by the devices near the underground waves were likely the invention of the mastermind to weaken the zombie virus. Zombies like Lynn have more zombie virus than human awakeners so the effect of the invisible waves was more severe towards zombies compared to you.]

[Although Lynn wasn't killed by the invisible waves, the effects of those invisible waves were severe enough to put her into deep sleep. On the other hand, your evolution rank was still SS-rank Peak Stage yet the power that you could use was only at A-rank Peak Stage.]

["Forgive me, Lynn." Although you have already killed Lynn before, that doesn't mean you could easily kill Lynn without any emotional fluctuations in your heart. The thought of killing Lynn to make yourself stronger had disgusted you but you know that you are left with no choice.]

[You were likely to get an S-grade simulation score in this simulation from your estimations. Even if you couldn't kill the mastermind, you ought to find out the mastermind's identity and discover his weakness.]

[And to increase your chances of doing that, you needed to become stronger. Your mood became worse as you realized that you needed to kill Lynn since evolving to SSS-rank was your only hope of negating the effects of the invisible waves.]

[You unsheathed your sword from your scabbard and decapitated Lynn, killing her as fast and painless as possible. But since she had died in her sleep, her death was painless and that made you feel better that Lynn didn't suffer.]

[All of this happened in only a few seconds and knowing that you didn't have enough time to waste, you started to devour Lynn's zombie virus as fast as possible.]

[You devoured Lynn's zombie virus as well as her viral energy.]

[Much to your dismay, your power did become stronger but it wasn't enough to break through your bottleneck and evolve to SSS-rank. If you were to describe your current situation, your power was at Half-Step SSS-rank and the lack of sufficient viral energy had prevented you from successfully evolving to SSS-rank.]

[At Half-Step SSS-rank, you were stronger than SS-rank Peak Stage but weaker than SSS-rank Initial Stage. Your increase in evolution rank has allowed you to negate some effects of the invisible wave and the power you could mobilize had increased from A-rank Peak Stage to SS-rank Initial Stage.]

["To think that you are almost at SSS-rank! As expected of Subject 099's brother! I should have abducted you instead of your sister." The deranged voice of a mad scientist resounded above the underground base.]

[You looked to your side and saw that a middle-aged man in a white lab coat was sizing up your appearance as if he had found your existence intriguing. Aside from the mastermind, who else could that man be? That mad scientist was none other than the mastermind!]

[Not only did the mastermind know about you, but he also knew about your younger sister Alice Wright. As you have expected, your younger sister was the test subject of the mastermind. It wasn't a wrong move for you to kill her since she will undoubtedly become an unstable variable in your plans.]

[Who knew if your younger sister was brainwashed by the mastermind or was planted with a spy gadget that could monitor every move of yours?]

[But what surprised you the most was that the mastermind managed to appear to your side, bypassing your mental perception! Out of surprise, you couldn't help but mutter, "Teleportation?"]

["Bingo! You won the jackpot prize of death!" When you heard those words from the mastermind, your instincts and mental perception sensed danger!]

[You released wind repulsion force around you, causing the mastermind to fly backward. The mastermind seemed to be unharmed as he patted off the dust in his lab coat and mocked, "Is this the best you can do? My zombie virus negation wave seemed to be doing its job very well."]

[You noticed that the power of the mastermind seemed to be teleportation and the mastermind was at SS-rank Late Stage!]

[The mastermind was two stages stronger than the weakened you. If it weren't for the zombie virus negation wave of that mad scientist, you could have easily killed him.]

[From what you have observed, the mastermind was unaffected by the zombie virus negation wave so you guessed that the mastermind might be wearing a device that negated the effects of the zombie virus negation wave.]

[As the mastermind behind the zombie virus, you know that even your research of the zombie virus was too primitive compared to that mad scientist. Because of that, the mastermind had the advantage against you in developing techniques for the zombie virus.]

[While you spread out your mental perception around you, you noticed that the mastermind took out some daggers from his lab coat. Afterward, the mastermind threw the daggers towards you and it disappeared from your vision.]

[You immediately sensed danger behind your back which prompted you to move sideways. Several daggers that the mastermind had thrown out were teleported to your previous location.]

[The attack method that the mastermind had chosen had further solidified your assumption that the mastermind only possessed the ability of teleportation. Otherwise, if his ability was space manipulation, the mastermind could have used gravity repulsion or gravity field to attack you.] 𝑏𝑒𝘥𝑛𝘰𝑣𝑒𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

[Realizing that the mastermind wasn't invincible, you slashed your sword towards the mastermind and decided to fight against the mastermind with all of the power that you could muster!]
