Closing the status, i looks around and scans the area, finding nothing but dust settled machines and old virtual database drive, a little curious i connect to the drive, flood of information is displayed, sadly though it was locked and I can only read it after I reached certain certain level in program pocketing the drive, once again I scanned the room, which had very less light, tables chairs, dusty machines and a broken capsule, exiting the room I find myself in a hallway which leads me to stairs, when I am in mid part of the stairs ceiling opens, seems like this was underground lab, anyway climbing up i find myself in room which seems to be personal library of sorts, a shelf full of books and table which seems to be made of some grey color wood, why does anyone need books when they can store all info in a finger sized chip I wonder, personal hobby peraphs, oh well i try taking a book but I cannot some sort of barrier thingy, moving to the table i take the letter left there and read it,
Yo boy, if you are reading this means I have succeed hurrah for me, anyway getting to the matter at hand......There is really nothing to say whatever I am dead so nothing matters buuuuuuu......anyway press the red button under table to get my wealth and knowledge.
Hmm....he doesn't really seem to be the type to give his things to others........well whatever let's see what happens, I press the button, some sort of light shoots at me, a holographic image appears,
"Ahem boy since you are so stupid let me teach a few lessons, one never listen to what others tell you when you don't know ape shit about them, 2 don't think you will get things for free, 3 and the last one never ever press the damn red button, that said hard lessons tends to stick with you longer so i am gonna make it hard for be thankful boy" grinning like mad another light shoots at me.
Database wiped clean, warp core destroyed, Aegis core destroyed, all the money in the account has been donated under the name of mad scientist, so no fame for you tee hee.
What the fuck is up with the tee hee, I kinda expected something bad, but damn it like I guessed he is an s no wonder, yeah yeah let's treat it like I didn't get anything in the first place yup nothing, nothing at all, as I was well getting myself cheered up, another holographic image of the asshole pops up.
"I forgot it is also a self district button you have like 5 seconds to get out of here" grinning evilly the projection vanished.
Fuck that ass hole, I run for the door and then to the exit, then BOOMMMMM........i was thrown out by the blast, flying for a few feet crashed at the tree like t*rzan, fucking hell there goes 2/3 of my health, I want to complain about so many things here but fuck it, i get up and look around dense green forest in all direction, I almost missed the twinkling light probably some tower, as I was getting ready to go there.
*Ting* Gained a title
The idiot who pressed the red button
People will go out of their way to help you with your questions, 5% chance that they won't trust you with their important things.
Now I am sure the damn thing is screwing with me, sigh.....closing the windows I head towards the light source, damn it the forest is eerily quiet, Ignoring it I continue ahead and after an hour I reached the light source, which was a huge fucking wall with many lights, illuminating the areas below it, i run along the wall and find the gate only to be blocked by an armed guard bot,
"Display status please" I oblige, "No infamy, permission to enter city granted" the bot went back to its post.
"Hey can you tell me where I can get information" no reply, plainly ignored.
Sigh.....probably not in its function, I walk through the gate and find several tall buildings, those are all neatly arranged in a circular format, I try scanning and voila I get the name and description of the building, hmm....wasn't my database deleted how does this work i wonder, maybe basic info doesn't get deleted I guess, finally I find the information centre, I entered it and was greeted by a beautiful lady....NOT, an old hag,
You might be reading a pirated copy. Look for the official release to support the author.
"Hmmm.....your race doesn't show what are boy?" the old hag asks looking at me and then at a screen.
"and why should I tell you that" now I don't really want to say anything that involves my connection with that nut case scientists, who knows how many he pissed of.
"Why indeed....." as she taps the counter.
"Can I please get basic information please...." I ask getting to what I need.
"Nope you can't, it cost bucks which I see you don't have" she says grinning at me
"Yeah I get it, can you at least tell me where I can get a job"
"What makes you think anyone will hire you when you don't have any damn skills" eyeing me as if getting close to her prey
"Guuh.....ok now how the fuck do i get anything, wait let me guess you want scan my body" which makes her grin like kid who got a new toy and blast it with the fireworks.
"Ok,only if you keep it a secret and give me ALL the skills you have" I say grinning back at her.
"That's some high price you ask, aren't you rating yourself too highly " she says a bit displeased at outrageous demand.
"Well i am, considering that I am ONE-OF-KIND and all, you won't be getting another chance you know"
"Still, no how about 3 skill of your choice and we call it a deal"
"I don't want to haggle, so 5 skill and you got yourself a deal"
"Ok deal, ok follow me lets get you studied"she says smirking as if the previous displeasure was an act, damn hag.
*ting* I ignore the window and continue following her to the room, after she connect several type of equipments to me and does something in the computer, she looks at me a little surprised and then sorrowly as if she lost something very important.
*ting* with nothing to do i open the screen.
You got 2 titles

The idiot who sold it cheap - greedy merchants and sharp owners will try to rip you off, when equipped items cost 5-25% high and when selling cost is reduced by 25%.
The idiot who almost sold epic level info - all kind of information brokers will be happy to receive you
+50 luck when equipped but people will also never tell you their secret when this is equipped.
The hell wait does that mean the hag didn't get what she wanted, hehe....no wonder she was had the despair look.
"Oi, you are done right" I ask as if not knowing anything.
"Nah, wait a little....." saying she performs few more scans and dejected look "alright you can take it off"
"So when can I get my skills"
"Look boy, I wanted info but got none so don't expect anything for free, so the deal is void"
"Oh really, hag the deal was i let you study my body not that I give you info, so don't blame me for your incompetence or i report you for breaking the deal "I say grinning at her
Looking at me angrily, she thinks for a bit not finding anything to report with, she begrudgingly hands over a chip.
Scanning it a screen is displayed with numerous skill and asks me to choose five, wow this are valuable, damn it i want everything.
