surprise boxes

After Mike's body was completely healed, a bright light enveloped him, the next second the light disappeared and the Mike they knew had changed.

With messy hair, a red band on his forehead, deep features, and a muscular body, it all made him look like a strong warrior from a fantasy world, and wearing only tight leather pants brought out his imposing frame.

Zac and Har looked at this new Mike a little surprised, they knew that light from before and they know that it must have been a tower adjustment, Mike's body had remained with his real appearance until the zombie state was revoked, now the tower had taken action and returned him to the appearance of his avatar.

It seems that the tower was not willing to take Mike out of the Zombie appearance, his other options for him were to turn the avatar into a Zombie or return him to normal with the help of his avatar.

After making a couple of jokes about Mike's new appearance, Har gave them the iron armor set, sword and shield, as well as giving each of them a regeneration potion.

They wanted to refuse at first, but under Har's excuse that he can go back to the first floor and do a lot of these things, they both accepted, once again marveling at the incredible effects of the book of origins, they never thought that the first floor contained anything as wonderful as these magic potions.

"We should add ourselves to the tower's friends list."

"That's right, with that the communication between us won't be limited by anything"

Mike and Zac suggested while Har was making some potions, thanks to looting loot from the Blazes in the Nether he now had about 13 Ghast tears, adding the 24 glowstone powders he already has enough for about 39 regeneration potions II, but he wasn't in his plans to spend all his resources on those types of potions, he can still make strength and agility potions.

'I had forgotten about that function..'

Har remembers that the friends list was unlocked when he first left the first floor, he had been so focused on his business that he even forgot about it, after all it was something very simple that he didn't need for the sake of it. moment.

"Okay, how do I find them?"-Har left a set of regeneration potions brewing and asked the two in the background.

They both refused to utter their nicknames for some reason, Har could only give them his to be added by the other party.

'...?'

Har opened the friends list with a thought, when he was ready to accept Mike's requests and Zac was very confused, there were a lot of requests from Runners with aliases even from different alphabets, he doubted for a moment if he had entered a page to request friends, it's just that the options were accept/deny instead of send request or something.

"What's wrong?"-Mike and Zac asked a little embarrassed, Har still didn't understand why they acted that way but he didn't care right now.

"There are a lot of requests here, for some reason..."

Har said confused, but Mike and Zac were just as confused when they heard him.

"Isn't this your first day?"

"Did you meet so many people today?"

These two did not know about the popularity of the alias Steve so they could only think about that, however, Har did not listen to their questions because he had noticed something strange in the list, it was an alias that blinked rapidly just giving him time to read, no No matter how many new aliases appeared, this one always remained above them, observing him carefully he could see that he was somewhat familiar.

"Bloody Butterfly?"

...

In Har's room in the real world, everything was exactly as he had left it, it's just that if you look at the digital clock on the nightstand you can see that it reads 11:59:59 PM, the next second it marked midnight and something happened on the first floor.

...

Returning to Har, a light could be seen enveloping the three of them in the alchemy room, not only that, even Har's clones, who were building a room for harvesting warts from the underworld, were enveloped by this light, everywhere. parts of the first floor the few survivors experienced the same situation.

Before they could react or say a word, they all disappeared without being able to resist.

...

[Congratulations on finishing the first floor, calculating its merits...]

Har's view shifted from the alchemy room to the blank space of the tower, it was all too rushed and it took him a few seconds to react.

"So time is up, luckily I saved beforehand."

From the moment he returned to the first floor something inside him told him that the test was about to end, he took measurements and used the save function with each big step he took, such as potions.

As Har was glad that she had followed his instincts, the tower began to mention his achievements.

[He has obtained the achievement > Diamonds <]

[He has obtained the achievement > To the Underworld <]

[He has obtained the achievement > His own medicine from him <]

[He has obtained the achievement >Rampant<]

[He has obtained the achievement > Eternal Fire <]

[Has earned the achievement >Local Distillery<]

[....]

...

[He has obtained the achievement > Doctor of Zombies <]

This time Har was very surprised, achievements that he had already acquired were also included, he didn't know that they could be overcome, but his surprise was bound to grow under the tower's words.

[Congratulations on discovering a new dimension > Nether <, he has obtained > Nether Jack-in-the-Box × 1 < as a reward for his achievement.]

[Congratulations on being the first to finish the S-rated first floor.]

[He has obtained +50,000 TP.]

[Gets double reward.]

[He has obtained > Surface Jack-in-the-Box × 1 < as a reward for his achievement.]

...

Under the moonlight, in an alley in the real world, suddenly some lights flashed and two people appeared, these were Har and Mike, but Zac was nowhere to be found.

Har's clones had disappeared, since they were summoned by Har inside the first floor they have no place of entry into the real world, all their items just fell to the ground along with Har's.

"A C grade?...hahaha, that was better than last time" -Mike said excitedly, but seeing Har's stunned expression he stopped reising.

"Did something happen?"-Mike thought maybe something went wrong.

'...!!'-An alarming thought came to his mind and he soon passed his eyes over the dozens and dozens of objects on the ground.

'Ugh...thank goodness, it's still there'- he looked at the book of origins floating next to Har and sighed in relief, he thought the book had been revoked for being too powerful or something.

Har was thinking about all the new information given by the tower before, such as jack-in-the-box rewards.

He saw that he was holding a Magma Cube-like box from the underworld in his left hand and a green Creeper-faced box in his right hand, a holographic window popped up over both of them and gave a brief description.

[>Underworld Jack-in-the-Box<

When opened he can randomly obtain a characteristic ability of the creatures of the Nether dimension.]

[Would you like to open the Box? >Yes< >No<]

[>Surface Jack-in-the-Box<

When opened it can randomly obtain a characteristic ability of surface creatures.]

[Would you like to open the Box? >Yes< >No<]

"Hey Har, Zac is not with us..."

"Hey?"

Only then did Har react, he remembers that the last place Zac was in was...HighRank!
