Terra Nova Online: Rise of The Strongest Player
Chapter 348: Elena and JacobChapter 348: Elena and Jacob
( Meanwhile back on Earth )
Finally, at around an hour before the Arc Ship docked near Washington DC was officially scheduled to take off, the military officers holding the patrol perimeter started to retreat, as they let the perimeter surrounding the ship collapse in a mad frenzy.
Within seconds, hundreds of thousands of civilians wanting to escape Earth rushed inside the hangar bay, hoping to enter the Arc Ship, however, unfortunately for them, before a single illegal immigrant could get on board, the doors of the Arc Ship got firmly shut, as the rocket boosters kicked in.
Unlike the Arc Ship near Paris, which took off prematurely and with far fewer passengers than intended, the one in DC managed to complete approximately 80% of its boarding and departed with over 200 million people on board, with the final passengers being the military officers who had worked tirelessly to secure the perimeter over the past few days.
Upon lift-off, the passengers on-board were given the same instructions as those on Leo’s ship were during the take-off, which was to carefully read the instruction manual and spend their first free day getting accustomed to the world of ‘Terra Nova’ which was going to become an important part of their new daily routine.

( Elena’s POV, a couple days ago )
Elena and Jacob had boarded the ship three days ago and had taken the opportunity to explore their sector and those in-rank below them that they were allowed to freely visit.
While they had not been given the welcome kit, or the VR headset to log-into Terra Nova ahead of the other players, they got to visit the important buildings within the Arc Ship such as the ‘MP’ exchange store and the emergency room.The emergency room especially was a place that Elena was extremely scared to visit, since it was a place where her kidney replacement surgery was scheduled to take place, however, when the surgery actually began, from start to finish it took less than two minutes to complete and she felt almost no pain whatsoever.
“That’s it? I’ve regained my kidney just like that?” Elena asked, sounding emotional, as the alien doctor who operated on her gave her a big smile.
“Yes…. You have paid for the most premium surgery, so it was bound to be painless and fast” The elf alien doctor replied, as Elena let out a tear of joy.
She had never regretted selling her kidney to secure ticket money for her kids, however, she felt extremely emotional over it now, as she realized that her kids were repaying her kindness a hundredfold.
“My kids paid for it…. My kids are on some other arc ship and they did this–” Elena said, as the alien surgeon smiled kindly towards her.
“Then you have the most wonderful kids ma’am, congratulations” the surgeon said, before moving out of the room.
10 minutes later, Elena was healthy and ready to move, with her first stop being the bathroom where she peed out a slight bit of blood before the stream of urine turned normal.
Examining the sample, the doctor deemed the surgery a success, giving Elena a speedy discharge, as she found herself back in Jacob’s arms in less than 17 minutes from start to end.
“Your surgery was concluded so fast?” Jacob asked in shock, as he did not expect alien medicine to be that much more advanced to human medicine.

( Present day )
Only after the arc ship taking off, were Jacob and Elena also given their welcome kits and VR headsets, as remembering Luke and Leo’s advice, the couple immediately logged into the game with utmost sincerity.
Although Elena wasn’t the most athletic, since she had never practiced playing sports or developed her fine motor coordination skills as well as teenage boys, causing her to be a little timid, she did her best in all the welcome tests and managed to get a ‘D’ or higher evaluation in each one.
Finally, after her memories were read, she was assigned the ‘Gourmet Chef’ class, making her a non-combatant player within the world of Terra Nova.
At the same time, Jacob performed exceptionally well on all the welcome tests, outperforming both Luke and Leo across all parameters, except Leo’s score on the reflex test.
With an average performance of S or higher across the board, Jacob was given the special class “Death Overlord”, making him one of the key characters within the world of Terra Nova.
As a ‘Death Overlord’, he was given the unique destiny where he was forced to kill one player every single day and if he failed to do so, his level would drop down to 0.
In return, he was set to receive twice the EXP of a common player for any monster based kill and could use any ‘Death’ based skill from any class such as ‘Necromancer’, ‘Ghoulmancer’ ‘Dark Magician’ etc without facing any restrictions.
Over-all, it was a great class with more benefits than downside, however, the condition which forced him to kill a player every single day or have his level reset to zero was absolutely brutal.
He could potentially be on level 200 in one year’s time and have his entire progress wiped out because he failed to kill a prey just once.
“Interesting…. This class does indeed suit my personality… I don’t think I’ll find playing this class too hard” Jacob muttered to himself confidently, as while he had been playing the role of a tame house-husband for the past 6 months, in reality, he was anything but tame or non-violent.
He was a special ops soldier who was deployed to other countries to carry out political assassination’s within the most secure nuclear bunkers.
He was the man that the USA secret service called upon to kill the ‘Boogeyman’, as simply put, he was one of the most ruthless and talented killers alive, or at least was until he retired to come back home 6 months ago.
