The Nightmare Game Chapter 11
I dropped to one knee in agony.
The commander's voice echoed in my earpiece: "There's a chip implanted in your body. Disobey orders and I'll make you wish you were dead! Last chance: kill the alien Queen!"
I hated being threatened more than anything.
Through clenched teeth, I growled: "Go... to... hell..."
The moment I finished speaking, a powerful electric current surged through my skull.
My eyes rolled back. I collapsed.
Had I failed?
Was I dying?
My body felt weightless. Everything around me moved in slow motion.
Sophia and Grace rushed to my side.
They were calling my name, but their voices grew increasingly distant.
My vision blurred. Hailey had also transformed back to human form. She held me, crying, begging me to wake up.
Three beautiful women surrounding me as I died—I could accept this fate.
I closed my eyes peacefully.
Prepared for the end, a mechanical voice suddenly echoed in my mind:
"Congratulations, player! You have passed the test. Earned 100 million Dread Points! Upon exiting the game, Dread Points will be converted to cash rewards."
Cash rewards?
How much?
Instantly revitalized, my eyes snapped open like saucers. My headache vanished. My legs felt strong again.
Everything pixelated and blurred, rapidly dissolving into nothing.
THUD!
I fell out of bed onto the floor.
I cursed as I climbed up. My computer screen was still on.
Strange—I remembered shutting it down before sleeping.
Dazed, I moved the mouse to check.
My game account balance showed an additional hundred million dollars. It indicated I could withdraw the funds.
I gasped in shock.
"No way. That wasn't a dream?"
Hands trembling, I clicked withdraw. The system showed it would arrive within 24 hours.
Even now, I couldn't believe what I'd experienced.
I leaned back in my chair and happened to glance at the game disc case I'd tossed aside.
On the cover, three distinctively beautiful women smiled at the camera.
I picked up the case and kissed each of their images.
"Thank you, my darlings!"
