Recoil drove through the metropolis, taking in the view of the city for the first time before a quest came in.
[New Notification: New dimension unlocked; join the team of hunters on Enoverse and get the Kyrium core!]
" Team of hunters?" Recoil asked, perplexed. " In this dimension you will be meeting up with other players as your team mates, you either create a temporary team or you join one" Nova clarified.
" Okay I guess" Recoil said and accepted the quest…
The world of Dimension Enoverse was one completely taken over by alien monsters called Enos, it was more like a post apocalyptic world.
Evidence of life -crashed cars, a downed plane etc- that was leaved on it was present but there was no living thing. Recoil met himself in an empty street.
" You've successfully joined a hunting team, now you're to join the hunt" Nova declared.
" What exactly am I hunting for again?" Recoil inquired and began jogging down the street.
" The Kyrium core a rare artifact of the Enos, you're required to steal it from their leader" Nova replied.
" Just to know what I'm dealing with what are these Enos difficulty like what are their stats.

" These are all you will be facing for now"
As Recoil neared the end of the street he heard a voice followed by an animal-like growl.
He followed the sound and got to a corner where a player was surrounded by a group of six large and burly humanoid monsters. They had slightly curved backs like an ape and hands equipped with short, menacing claws.
" What are the sizes of these things?" Recoil asked in curiosity. " Eight feet tall, weighing 500 pounds" Nova replied impassively.
The player fell to the ground and was about to be torn apart from virtual limb to limb before Recoil's timely intervention. He emerged dual Glocks blazing.
The guns barked off eighteen rounds in less than six seconds. His aim was perfect, the rounds pierced their hearts and heads killing them instantly.
Recoil ran to the position of the downed player and knelt to check on him. " Are you okay?" He asked, his tone filled with concern.
" Yeah I guess" the player replied. Recoil rose and extended a hand. The player took it and was hoisted to his feet.
" Thanks man" The player said. " Yeah no prob" Recoil shrugged and reloaded his pistols. He observed the player's chosen avatar had a cybernetic left arm. " The name's Tyrion though you could call me Tee, yours?"
" Recoil" he said. " I'm trynna look for my hunt team I…" he added. " What's the name?" Tyrion asked. " Something called the Gunners hunt team"
" Hey man! You're part of my hunt team bro, so gimme a minute to locate the rest so I can introduce you to them" Tyrion said and led the way.
" So basically this team I made up of ballers so I hope you've got steaze man cuz you gonna be seeing a lot of it" Tyrion rushed and led him up to a battle ground.
A few metres ahead were three hunting teams in a heated battle with an army of Enos. " Showtime brother!" Tyrion said and gave Recoil a gentle nudge on the shoulder before joining in the battle.
Recoil surveyed the fight " how many Enos are there?". " About three hundred" Nova replied immediately. He took a deep breath and held it.
He cocked his dual pistols and tightened his grip on them, then let the air out slowly. He lunged into the fray with executed at swift take down of three Enos simultaneously.
He fired his pistols rapidly, his hand rock steady while he pressed and released the trigger. In the battle he became a completely different person fighting and reloading the pistols at the speed of light.
He pulled the pin on a grenade and threw it a couple metres ahead, the blast bought him some seconds to reload. " You're good at this!" Tyrion cheered from behind him.
He turned and saw him firing his machine pistol at a horde of Enos. " This is who I am". The battle continued for nearly an hour till every last one of them was vanquished.
The hunters leaned against their weapons panting, while Recoil pressed attack on the rest of the Enos still standing. He fired multiple shots each bagging a critical hit damage till his guns went silent.
Recoil scanned around him and took in the gazes of all the other players. He saw Tyrion making his way to him with some guys.
One of them's avatar was a ninja in white while the others' style is unmistakably cowboy-inspired, with a black duster coat, a wide-brimmed hat, Black leather gloves, tactical pants, combat boots, and a chain of bullets draped across his chest. " Hey man, here are my two homies meet Smoke and Vapor". Tyrion introduced.
" Hello Recoil" Smoke said with a bow which Recoil returned. " Hey Gunslinger!" Vapor greeted jovially and shook hands. " You should take it easy on the trigger though"
Recoil grinned. " So… where is this Kyrium core any ideas?" " if it's gonna be anywhere, it gotta be there" Tyrion nodded towards a mother ship hovering in the distance.
Recoil's eyes narrowed as his digested Tee's information. " Is there a way to prove this theory?" He asked. " Not a chance! We either go all in or quit" Vapor stated. " There's no way one can test that without dying" Smoke added.
Recoil ran a hand through his dreadlocks in thought while he studied the ship. " How do we get up there?" He asked. " That thing's gotta be a few hundred feet high, too far for me to teleport"
The other teams charged into the newest batch of Enos while they stared on their brains silently calculating, before an idea hit Tyrion like a bolt of lightning and his eyes lit up. " Aha!"...
