Lord MMORPG: The Demon Progenietor

Chapter 67 Special squad

Xander entered the room where his friends were and saw them all looking at something, their backs were turned to the door.

He sneakily walked close to them and saw that they had hesitant expressions on their faces.

He looked forward to see a VR gaming helmet hung on the wall. It was silver in colour and shined brightly. The stylish glowing lines on it made it look like a beautiful creation.

Xander looked at the others and saw that they all had scared expressions on their faces, instead of the marveled one he imagined.

"So it really affected you guys huh?"

""AH!!""

They all shouted as they were spooked by Xander. They didn't say anything else and turned to the helmet again.

Xander had a frown on his face as he looked at the helmet. This thing was what was taking people to another world.

He suddenly felt a hand go around his back along with the contact of a soft body on his arm. He raised his arm and looked to his side and then he saw Sandra slip her second hand in front of his chest, hugging him from his side.

Xander didn't complain and just held her shoulder. He also liked this for some reason.

'Could it be that... she likes me?'

For some reason his felt felt his body go weaker at that thought.

'No. Don't jump to conclusions. Wait... that's right She's scared. That's why she needs a hug.' Xander thought but for some reason he hoped that it was the former reason...

Harry and Hannah were just looking at the two love birds. Harry couldn't help but smile bitterly as he saw how Xander held someone they thought they would never be friends with.

Hannah just harrumphed and flung her hair backwards. Her beautiful green eyes had a hint of jealousy in them.

"Did the game really affect you guys that much?" Xander asked as he didn't feel anything when looking at the helmet.

"Are– are you serious? I almost lost my life."

"I almost lost my arm."

Experience new tales on empire

"I almost lost my head."

Even Sandra raised her head to say something.

Xander didn't say anything else and just kept on staring at the helmet. After a while he finally spoke up.

"Do you guys want to stop it?"

All of them were confused by his words and looked at him.

"What do you mean?" Harry asked with a raised brow.

"The game. Do you guys want to stop it?"

Hearing his words clearly this time the others were confused as they didn't even know much about the game.

Hannah was the first to speak.

"If I could I would. But I don't even know how the game sends us to another world."

Xander sighed as he began to tell them about the ghoulshippers and how they use their abilities to sent people to another world to use them as sacrifices to bring their 'God' to this world.

Xander didn't know if the ghoulshippers had arcanas too or if they used technology to do it but he knew that they were the bad guys.

"I'm in. If it's stopping the transportation or teleportation or kidnap to that world then I'm in." Harry clenched his fists.

"I'm in too."

"Me too."

Seeing that they all agreed Xander nodded and all that was left now was to speak to his dad about this.

"I'll go talk to my dad."

As he left the room Hannah immediately looked at Sandra and asked what she has been wanting to ask.

"So. How did you meet Xander?"

...

Xander left the room and went straight to where his dad's office is at.

As he took a tour around the place earlier it wasn't hard for him to find the his father's office as he had good memory. Too bad good memories don't work for books too much.

Soon, he arrived in front of a red door and he opened it by swiping his hand in front of the door.

These auto-door could be locked from the inside so they were perfectly safe. The smoothness of the door as Xander rubbed it with his hands was cold and it felt... neat.

Xander looked inside to see an office chair with a desk in front of it. In front of the desk was a rug that spread to almost where he stood and a glass table was on the rectangular rug. Beside the rug were two long couches made with high quality brown leather.

The table wasn't the only thing on the rug though. A man with black hair reaching his shoulders stood on the rug while looking at the big 70 inches television on the walls with a remote in his hands as he changed the channel once in a while.

Seeing his dad frowning Xander walked close to him and looked up at the screen and then he frowned too.

It was news on the recent incidents!

[I can't believe it! The president's 19 year old daughter has been kidnapped. The soldiers were all beaten up and when reinforcements got to the mansion they saw a note left by the returnees who kidnapped her. It says "Just wanna do a gangbang, nothing personal"...

The central bank of Nigeria has been robbed, multiple casualties were found at the site and the bank is in flames now. The bank has existed for...

The military vault in USA has been robbed. The vault was emptied with hundreds of guns and explosives missing, things are going haywire, I'm quitting my job...

The world is in chaos as the notorious returnees scour the cities, causing death and destruction wherever they go. The elite team is getting bigger, 133 returnees have been captured already by this group of brave...]

"Only one group casued all this. They caused An apocalypse."

Xander turned to his dad to see the man with a worried expression.

Focused on his task Xander spoke:

"Dad. I have a request."

Hearing his son Ciel snapped his fingers and the TV switched off automatically. His son had a request.

"Well. Speak."

Seeing his dad with a smile Xander began talking.

"I want to help look for the ghoulshippers. I can't stay here and do nothing while they hold my mother captive."

Hearing what Xander said Ciel sighed an walked towards his desk while saying one word, "Ok."

At first Xander was confused but his dad sat on his office chair and then he said, "I know that even if I say no you will still go so why not? I know that you want your friends to join as well."

'How did he...?' Xander felt like he was looking at a mind reader.

"Don't worry. I'll arrange for some experienced apostles to go with you guys. For now, enjoy your stay here." Ciel said with a smile.

"Thank you." Xander said. Even if his voice was low it was filled with determination and anger towards the ghoulshippers.

After Xander left Ciel picked up his phone and dialed a number. Soon, the receiver picked up and a feminine voice came from the other end.

"Hello sir."

"How's it going?"

"Not well, I haven't seen any clues on their location. Only strange attacks from returnees like gangbanging."

"I need you back tomorrow."

"Ahhnn~ Is it because I asked to work alone."

"Yes. And also because I have a more important job for you."

"Hehe. You should have said that first. I'll be at the base tomorrow."

Ciel nodded and cut the call before resting his back on the chair. He closed his eyes as his mind slipped into his subconscious.

...

Xander entered the room again with a smile on his face. Immediately, Harry and the others stood up and walked towards him.

"Well. We're now a special squad."
