The woman is at Mikey's mercy. He puts his hand out, as if he wanted to help her stand up.
"Join my crew." Mikey says. "We're travelling towards the closest continent." He adds.
The woman looks at Mikey in a disbelief and asks. "Are you sure? I literally tried to kill you and your friends." She says.
"And you failed, I haven't seen what you can do yet, but why wouldn't I want to help you?" Mikey asks.
"Literally because of what I said. I tried to kill you." She says.
"Don't worry about that." Mikey says. "So, are you in or no?" He asks.
"Of course." She says.
"What's your name by the way?" Mikey asks.
"Christina, my name is Christina."
Christina takes Mikey's hand who helps her stand up.
"My name is Mikey. Glad to have you aboard.
(Several days ago, Christine's POV)
I suddenly appeared in another world for no reason. I was really confused but didn't have much time to collect my thoughts.
"Hey! Who are you?!" A strange looking person spots Christina, by his appearance he's certainly not human even though he resembles one. His nose is long, his eyes have a different shape and his hair has a color that she's never seen before.
Another two men show up, judging by their clothes they must be... pirates? Christina was confused about that.
"Hey guys, she's pretty hot don't you think?" One of the men says.
"Are you thinking of what I am thinking?" The other one asks.
They start glaring at Christina, scanning her body with their eyes. She realizes what's about to happen and runs for her life.
Christina was a runner before she came in this world, and not an ordinary one. She was the national champion in her category. The national champion of Germany.
Christina easily outran the three pirates who were chasing after her. It didn't take her long to realize that the world she's in is suspiciously similar to Minecraft.
Throughout her first night she hid for the most part and fought only the monsters that she couldn't outrun. There weren't that many monsters in the first place because the island was lit up very well and monsters can only spawn in the dark.
After the first night ended, Christina came across a small abandomed wooden hut. She found a gun in there, a large pistol and a bunch of ammo along with a note.
If you come across this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it.
[Whoever finds this weapon, take a good care of it. It is no ordinary weapon]
The pistol was shining with a bright blue color, which means that it's enchanted.
The three men found Christina right after she discovered her weapon. She shot from it and killed one of the men. The other two ran away.
It took Christina one day to conquer the entire pirate island. It was the day after her duel. She was in the upper group and managed to finish her fight really quickly, after that she spectated Mikey's fight and thought to herself that she never wants to go up against him.
Once Mikey's fight finished and she got back she saw her rank.
"Hmm, that guy must definitely be the Rank 1 after that. I need to become stronger somehow." Christina told herself.
She has an extremely competetive personality, which is one of the reasons why she is one of the strongest humans in this world right now. Conquering the Island was not a problem for her, thanks to her two attributes.
[World Class Runner] [Epic]
[Bloodthirsty Gunner] [Epic]
The reason why she received her bloodthirsty gunner attribute is because she used it to survive the second night. She literally put out the lights in the entire forest, so that more monsters would spawn. The pirates were scared to go into the unlit parts of the forest as they heard Christina's gun shots.
The two pirates who escaped from her spread the rumours fast.
There were actually a few Pirate Captains on the Island at the moment, but they couldn't care less about Christina, which ended up being their mistake.
(Back to present, one day later)
"How far away are we from the continent?" Christina asks Mikey, they are in the quarterdeck.
"About four hundred thousand blocks, or four hundred kilometers." Mikey says.
"How long do you think it's going to take us to get there?" She asks him.
"Almost two days of travel, that's excluding the fact that my attribute might evolve even further." Mikey answers.
"Are we going to stop at any islands besides the Pirate island?" She asks him.
"Yeah, there are four other islands that aren't too far away from us. We will check out those." Mikey replies.
The reason why they're going to the pirate island is because Christina left some important things there that she needs to take with herself. She left them there not expecting that she would leave the island so soon
(1 hour later)
Mikey's crew is reaching one of the islands. The island is pretty big and there seems to be an entire castle built on it.
Mikey's crew disembarks. Mikey leaves a few spectral pirates to guard his ship as always.
"Are we going straight for the castle?" Zoro asks.
"I am going to check out that forest. I can feel danger coming from it. I feel danger from that castle too." Ragnar says.
"Hmm. What about that temple over there?" Mikey asks Ragnar as he points at a small temple on a hill.
"I didn't even notice it. I don't sense anything from it, you can check it out if you want." Ragnar says.
"Shouldn't I look? Considering the fact that I am the fastest?" Christina asks. "If there's nothing there I can just quickly come back." She adds.
"That's true, however, if there's something really dangerous there then me or Ragnar have the highest chance of dealing with it, as we specialize in close combat." Mikey says.
"That's true." Christina says.
"So, are we just all going to split up or what?" Lucy asks.
In the end Mikey went to the temple by himself.
Lucy and Zoro went to the castle.
Olaf and Christina went to the forest.
"Well I'll be damned, what's all of this?" Mikey says as he reaches the temple. There are countless dead bodies of unidenticable creatures on the ground. The temple is much bigger than it initially seemed. The reason for that is, because it has an underground area.
Mikey enters the underground catacombs and starts exploring the place. It's very well lit with torches and lights all around the place. There are a bunch of ancient drawings and relics.
Mikey takes the most expensive looking ones and stores them in his inventory.
He eventually comes across a large room in the underground area which looks strange. There is nothing inside the room but a small pressure plate in the middle.
Mikey comes up to the pressure plate and uses his pickaxe to dig around it. He realizes that this pressure plate isn't a trap or anything like that, and that it isn't connected to anything. He decides to step on it, and as he expected... Nothing happened.
Mikey looks around the temple a little bit more and grabs a few more relics. He is about to leave the temple, just to realize that the entire layout of the underground catacombs has changed. He realized this because he had been marking the walls the whole time he was here, but he never put two marks right next to eachother. The problem is... he found two marks right next to eachother at one of the walls.
"What is happening here? Don't tell me... this temple is a labyrinth??"
