Is it Wrong to Copy Abilities in Apocalypse?

{Tutorial 3.

Objective: Survive the group of monsters surrounding the barrier.

Details: -

You know how to kill, and you know how the game works.

If the situation calls for it, you will have to team up with your enemy as well, so hopefully you learned something from the second tutorial.

This tutorial will show you the despair of the situation outside.

You will have at least 20 Orcs around the barrier, ready to kill you.

All you have to do is run—run as fast as you can.

This quest will show you that you shouldn't always rush at your opponents mindlessly; sometimes running away is the best solution, or the consequences could be dire.

>Details about Orcs< [Extend]

Time before the tutorial: 1 minute.

Reward: 40 coins for surviving.

Penalty: Death.

Tutorial Duration: Until you are judged to be safe by the system.}

There were no rules, no penalty for rules, and neither was there a special tutorial offer.

There was a section created for the details on the orcs, but the one thing that sucked all of the humans' attention toward it—as if it were a black hole sucking things into it—was nothing but a single word.

Death.

For the first time, they saw a penalty that stated death.

"Growl…."

"Grrr."

"Huff!"

But when their eyes turned toward the large, green, and buffed bodies of the orcs.

Their two large and sharp tusks, pointed outward and placed between their thick, dark green lips, they could tell that this death penalty was not unwarranted.

If they were to clash with those 2.5-meter-tall orcs, they were simply asking for death.

Just the fact that the orcs' palms were large enough to completely envelop their faces was enough for them to imagine their heads being crushed.

*Shiver*

They shivered as a chill ran down their spines.

But the next second, they sighed in relief.

'I don't have to fight those things.'

This was the only thing that brought a bit of solace was that they didn't need to fight against the orcs.

They did feel a bit resentful toward the system, since she did play with her words, leading them toward despair, but that was all they could do.

For now, they didn't have time to waste; all of them started thinking of ways to escape the area without getting caught by the orcs.

They didn't even look at the reward they were going to get; they could do that after surviving the ordeal they were about to face.

Alex, on the other hand, read everything carefully.

His eyes then turned to look at the orcs.

[Details about Orcs

Orcs are a race known for their bloodthirsty nature.

They are flesh-eating beasts, and they eat humans as well.

They are wild and strong—one of the strongest when it comes to strength.

But their strength depends on their stats.

If they are low class, then they won't be that strong.

A human, however, shouldn't think of taking on an Orc unless they are around level 10, as that would be suicidal.

Even the weakest of the orcs are around that power level.

The orcs, unlike their inferior breed known as goblins, are not very agile and swift; their strength, however, makes up for the lack.

The last thing to note is: never provoke an orc or attack it until you are sure of being able to defeat it. The orcs don't let go of the ones they mark as their prey, no matter what.]

The details about the orcs gave Alex an idea of what to do as his eyes turned toward the large crater.

'I just need to cross it somehow….'

The crater was 10 meters wide, something that would be impossible for a normal human to jump across, but Alex wasn't normal, was he?

So, it was worth a try.

The orcs were strong and heavy; if they were fast, then what Alex was thinking wouldn't have worked.

But if Alex could somehow cross the crack in the ground, then he would be safe.

There were no orcs on the other side, after all.

Alex didn't look worried, though.

For some reason, he was sure of his survival, even if he somehow couldn't jump across the crater.

He turned to look at the system, and even she seemed dismissive about the situation.

There was not a hint of excitement on her face, even though the humans were panicking; it was as if she was sure of their survival.

[10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5…]

Without anyone realizing it, one minute was almost over—only seconds remained.

[3, 2, 1.]

And with those last numbers, even the remaining seconds were out.

*Swoosh*

With a swooshing sound, the barrier that had been covering them—protecting them while also trapping them—started to turn lighter in the shade.

In just a second, one couldn't differentiate between air and the barrier.

It was as if the barrier was completely gone.

'Wait!!'

As they kept staring at the barrier, which had turned thin like paper and as transparent as glass, one of them realized something.

Her head, as if an old, rusty machine, slowly turned toward an orc standing close to the barrier.

*Gasp*

She gasped out loud, trying to back away, but a small piece of rock was right behind her foot.

*Thud*

She tumbled back, falling on her hips. She didn't even care about the small scratches or the piece of rock; she just screamed in fright.

"They can see us!!"

Her shriek caused everyone to notice the same thing.

The bloodthirsty eyes of the orcs were now looking at them while drools escaped their lips, falling to the ground.

*Step*

The humans, who were close to the barrier, hurriedly backed away.

Moving close to the center of the barrier.

'No one told anything about the barrier disappearing!'

All of them screamed inwardly, trembling in terror.

Just the glare from the orcs was enough to make their legs weak. They didn't want to imagine what would happen if they were standing right in front of each other.

They were all planning to make a run for it once the barrier cracked, like last time.

Even Alex was the same.

His plans were made on the premise that the barrier remains.

If the barrier is gone, won't the orcs just run around the crack?

The crevice only extended before it reached the barrier, after all.

'I guess making a run for it is the only option left.'

Alex muttered inwardly while shaking his head.

Even now, he wasn't worried.

"Hey!"

But just as the barrier kept getting thinner and thinner, Alex heard a shout from behind.

Alex just placed his hand on the dagger he had without even turning back.

He knew who it was, and he knew what they could want from him.

So, before the man and the tiger could come close to him, he uttered.

"I will be moving alone."

Shera, who was running toward Alex with Garvit on his back, stopped on his track, turning his eyes to look at Garvit.

"Growl..?"
