Magic forest?

"Well let's see, I've already entered the factory era so it shouldn't be long before the steel evolution event starts." I said as I repeatedly clicked the mouse button and moved it around the computer screen to level buildings and position troops.

Who am I you ask yourself, well I am what you can say I am one of the best construction and strategy game players in the world (Imagine him with his nose in the air), or the most persistent if I may say so.

Well back to the original point, my name is Leonardo but you can call me Leo, I'm an addicted root gamer who is supported by his parents and spends most of his time playing this real time strategy and evolution game called (Rise of the races).

And it may seem odd but no, I'm not a dislike to my parents I actually managed to convince them and spend a good deal of time playing with me while we're supported by money from renting a building in our name.

"Hey son, you should stop playing with Rat Civilization! Change a little and come play Orc!" His father across the table at his own computer called out to him but his mother slapped him on the back of the head, "Shut up you brawn of muscle, Orcs are clumsy and brutal! Our son should play along with me with the elves." His mother stated with a look of superiority on his father who bristled.

"Elegance only works in bed, that's why elves are the most in demand race for the slave trade!" His dad said laughing and his mom slapped him on the head soon after and the two started fighting, I could only sigh looking at this everyday scene and turned my attention back to the game.

The (Race Rise) was a very diverse game with hundreds of races and dozens of paths you could follow with each one of them making it an incredibly addictive and tiring game because if you didn't know everything your race does you would definitely lose his departure as he would not be able to adapt to the terrain quickly.

There were marine, terrestrial, magical wars with wizards or gods. Simply put, it was an extremely large game that gave you the freedom to create a magical and powerful medieval civilization to a civilization made of machines and science.

The race he was playing now was the giant rats, although they have giants in the name they were goblin sized with the average being 1.20 tall, the rat race can be described as one of the hardest to play in the game by that in it several events happen at the same time and at all times.

A better example would be that in a normal civilization they would have a big food boom or a big shortage at some point, that's both crisis and prosperity events, but in the case of rats they would have both at the same time!

If you have a lot of food the rat population shoots up enough for it to double in size in 2 weeks, this comes with rapid maturation where a giant rat reaches adulthood in 2 months of life, and with that you would see problems and management and infrastructure , a huge rise in crimes, attempted revolution and much more.

And this was only in one of the situations, there were cases where I already lost because I dealt badly with a mad scientist in the laboratory and he made the zombie virus and released it into the world, destroying not only my civilization but that of almost all players in the server.

But of course such a problematic breed came with advantages, first we started with a seed from the World Tree that literally grows with the number of rats, it not only provides housing for most rats in the beginning but is also a source of foods and minerals that will give a good sustainability to your civilization.

The problem with this is that other players, especially the elves, will try in every way possible to take the world tree from you, so you have a sense right now my mother is attacking my main city trying to take my world tree.

"Sorry son, I need this tree!" She told him with a giggle before concentrating on the attack, I let out a sigh and clicked to release Duckzilla, from the middle of her city slowly a huge duck glowing blue appeared and released an atomic ray into the elf army transforming them into dust.

"HOW YOU ALREADY HAVE THE DUCKZILLA!" Your mother screamed in despair from across the table and I giggled, let's get back to talking about the advantages of rats, the second advantage is that thanks to the huge population disparity, dozens if not hundreds of talents and advisors appear every day in your civilization. allowing you to quickly advance in any area.

At that time he invested in his talents as a scientist and picked up abilities that give him an advantage in this area, this allowed him to create the Duckzilla a weapon from the middle to the end of the game quickly.

"And the grand finale." I smiled as I saw the judgment day event appear for me and clicked continue, from its main city dozens of warheads were launched and attacked all player controlled civilizations around the map destroying most and only the most advanced ones surviving the first impact , however the ensuing radiation ended the service and the record victory notification appeared.

I smiled as I heard my parents boos about my lightning victory and that it broke the spell of the game but felt my eyes getting heavy at this point, "What's going on?" I wondered as I felt my body stagger and blinked my eyes.

When I opened them again all the scenery around me had changed and now trees and plants surrounded me on all sides, "But what?" I said and tried to take a step back but I felt a difference in height and I fell on my ass on the ground, at that moment my eyes nailed my body which was very different from what he remembered.

"Do I have white fur? Rodents' hands and..." I muttered in disbelief as I placed a hand on my slightly large nose, "I TURNED INTO A RAT???!!!"
