22. Cage

After logging back into Gambit, I brought up the menu for training mode and explored the new interface. I scrolled through the options for enemies, most of them appearing as a shadowy blur.

The only enemies I could select were those I had already faced.

I selected the zombie meerkat king.

An empty desert landscape opened around me, flat sands extending in all directions. At least it wasn’t a drained swimming pool.

The zombie meerkat king materialised ahead.

Pausing for a moment, I ran through the training options, switched on the hit bars, and opted to attack the zombie meerkat king.

Returning to the game, several hit bars appeared superimposed over its shoulders, arms, legs, chest, stomach, neck, head, and tail, with an overall energy bar hovering above its head in red.

I loaded my rifle and aimed at its right arm. I let out three shots. The two shots that hit brought the hit bar down by a third, though the main energy bar remained almost full.

I took aim at the legs. Each hit made a higher impact on the overall energy. That was good to know.

Shots to the stomach and chest did little to the total damage, I presumed this was because it was the easiest part of the body to hit...logic and anatomy be damned. Though, I wasn’t exactly sure how much zombies needed vital organs. After all, they were already dead, weren’t they?

Its head jerked from side to side, making it difficult to aim. A shot between the eyes would do the most damage, but as much as I tried, I could not score the hit.

Socko spawned next to me and stared up at the zombie meerkat king. “What you doing, bro? Training alone?”

I turned off the simulation and returned to the forum. “I need to work on my sniping. Thought I’d see which parts of the body were best to hit.”

“Training doesn’t help build your stats any longer.”

“I know. I can still build up my skills, though. I think I kidded myself I’d improved.”

Socko shook his head. “Still a lone wolf?”

“It’s not like that at all. I was doing it for the team.”

FragQueen logged in and looked between us. “You two are fighting again, are you?”

I waved my hand and forced a laugh. “No.”

“Neuro was training, bro.” Socko folded his arms and glared at me. “By himself.”

FragQueen shook her head. “Oh.”

Harley spawned next to me. “Hey.”

“Socko and Neuro were fighting again,” FragQueen said, curling up onto the sofa.

“Not again.” Harley rolled her eyes. “You two need to sort this out.”

“Don’t blame me, bro. Neuro thinks he’s still a freaking lone wolf.”

I let out a long sigh. “I was trying to work out the best way to take out the meerkat zombie thingy.”

“And?”

I frowned at Harley. “And, what?”

“What did you learn, fool?”

I shrugged. “I don’t know. I couldn’t say.”

“Couldn’t, or won’t?” Socko narrowed his eyes at me.

I raised my hands. “No. Not like that.”

“This isn’t helping,” FragQueen said. “Don’t make me sing Baby Shark again. Because I will.”

“What should we do, then?”

She examined her claws.
