Hvisland: A VR Colony Sim Game

The gunshots could still be heard in the distance, accompanied by the screams of the members of Jia's group. Sometimes, there is an explosion that sounds like it came from a bomb.

Leva came out of the tent while wiping her tears.

"You already know what happened, huh?" Eric came to the red-haired woman. "Whoever the man named Jia and his men are, they are demons to treat women like that."

"I can't believe most of the work is done by naked women. And even then, they are still being tortured and used as sex tools." Miro added through gritted teeth.

"Really?" Leva's tone turned cynical. "Your tribe has Dex who likes to harass women, right? Have you done anything to him?"

Miro chose to remain silent.

Leva rubbed her forehead. "Sorry, I shouldn't have spoken like that at a time like this."

"It's okay." The big tall man shrugged his shoulders. "Actually, I've done something for the bullying that often happens in my tribe, but I end up causing conflict a lot because of that... Ah, I'm talking unimportant things. We'd better continue our mission."

Eric signaled the rifled merman. Then, my colonists and the mermaids started to walk warily.

However, only taking a few steps forward, a cylinder the size of a baby's head fell before them.

"Watch out!!!" Seeing the burning fuse in the cylinder, Miro pulled my colonists back.

An enormous explosion hit the merman, sending her into the air. Fortunately, my colonists still survived. Even if their bodies were hit by the impact of the blast and rolled on the ground. Rex also seemed fine and barked in the direction of the explosion.

The same cannot be said of the merman who helped my colonists. She lay down and struggled to get up. Looks like her feet landed in the wrong position.

"Move! Move!" Miro got up, immediately faced several Jia troops carrying various melee weapons. With ease, he hit the heads of two enemies with his oversized hammer. The two people immediately fell down, covered in blood, making their comrades hesitate to attack. Not to mention Rex's barks were getting fiercer.

"Let me and Rex face them and protect the merman!" Miro shouted, and I ordered my colonists to obey.

While Miro was attacking the enemies and Rex biting the leg of one of them, my three colonists ran the other way, although a bit staggered. However, their path was immediately blocked. Several other members of Jia's group appeared and attacked them.

Leva pulled out her large machete and slashed the head of one of the enemies. Having just released her machete from her foe, she had to fend off another's sword strike. A fierce weapons battle ensued, and Leva was pushed back. And suddenly, Leva caught her enemy's body and slammed it to the ground. The enemy couldn't do anything when Leva stabbed him in the face with the machete.

Not far away from that, Manu blocked a mace attack with his ax, then kicked the enemy. Mercilessly, Manu swung his ax at the assailant's chest, who immediately flinched violently and fell unconscious, covered in blood.

Meanwhile, Eric moved like he was dancing, dodging stab after stab of spears from his two foes. When the opportunity came, he slashed one of them in the neck. Before that person even fell, that man had moved to the other person and stabbed him in the stomach.

Eric cleaned his bloodied sword with his shirt's sleeve while the others came up to him. The trio's eyes fell on a man with a bald head and a crooked nose, who had just arrived carrying a knife. He shook violently and looked very frightened but kept his knife raised.

"G-get out of here, or you'll die." The man threatened in a discordant voice.

However, as per my orders, my colonists didn't care and were ready to attack. This person could be just pretending and... Or not.

[???, 32 years old. (Nomad member)]

Ranged Attack: 11/100

Melee attack: 20/100

His melee attack is very low for his age. That meant he hardly ever practiced his close combat skills.

"Don't kill him!"

My colonists turned to the direction of the voice. The one who had just shouted was a woman with short, neck-length brown hair who had been in the tent that Leva had visited. She was naked again, probably afraid of Jia and his men.

"He is my husband. He's a good person. We were just playing along with Jia so we wouldn't be killed." The woman wept bitterly.

I was about to order my colonists to stop attacking, but suddenly the bald man was inches away from Manu.

Fortunately, the man's stab attack was blocked by Leva using the machete.

[???, 32 years old. (Nomad member)]

Ranged attack: 11/100

Melee attack: 80/100

Shit. It turns out that there is a trait that hides stats.

"Nooooo, don't attack them!!!" The woman screamed hysterically.

I didn't want to take any chances, so I let my colonists attack him. Surprisingly, my colonists had a hard time delivering their attacks. The man was so agile to dodge. His body was flexible, and his steps were so rapid. Only Eric can match it.

However, in the end, the man was still overwhelmed by being outnumbered. He backed away and turned to the brown-haired woman.

"They're not bad people. The proof is they didn't kill me, Tom!" The woman was crying again, trying to hold back her husband, who was already preparing for the attack.

Seeing his wife like that, the man named Tom called out to my colonists. "You guys want to go to Jia's place, right? Go now, don't kill us!"

"Should we really kill them?" Eric hissed, already prepared with his katana. "My head says it, but my heart doesn't."

It seems my colonists are in doubt. They didn't attack right away.

However, I don't want to be fooled again.

"My wife never lied to me." The man's eyes started to water. "I won't be able to face all of you alone, so let us escape."

Shit. It's tough to be completely ruthless, especially after all the things I've been through with my colonists.

My hands had taken many innocent lives, indirectly.
