CHAPTER THIRTY-TWO

As it turned out, the entrance to the basement was located in, of all places, the Base’s bathroom, which was located a couple of doors down from me and Cy’s rooms. Although Capes Online did not require bathing or even using the toilet like you might need to do in real life, players who showered and bathed regularly nonetheless got nice buffs for doing so. One such buff was the Clean buff, which made you smell better and gave you a +5 in Charisma for twelve hours. Given how my Charisma was my lowest Stat, I felt like showering daily was usually a good investment of my time.

But, despite having used the bathroom multiple times ever since arriving in the game, I had never even considered there might be a secret entrance to the basement. As I entered the somewhat small bathroom, I looked around it to see if I could spot the secret entrance without Cy’s help.

The bathroom was small and simple. There was a claw foot tub and shower in the upper left corner, while a toilet stood next to it. To my right was a small bowl sink with a mirror above it and behind the mirror was my shaving gear. Yes, I needed to shave despite the fact that this was a game and not real life. In fact, seeing my razor sitting on the edge of the sink reminded me of the fact that I hadn’t shaved in a couple of days due to how much stuff I had been doing. There was also an empty clothes hamper between the tub and the toilet.

When I first visited my bathroom the day after the Blackout, it had been absolutely filthy, practically a hazardous waste zone in and of itself. But Cy had taken it upon himself to clean the bathroom. I was dubious at first—Cy was not known for his cleanliness—but the evidence of his hard work was obvious. True, there was still a little grime on the walls and the fixtures certainly weren’t shining clean, but all in all, it was a massive improvement from how it looked before. At least now I didn’t have to worry about getting infected with some type of bacteria that would make the Z-Virus look like the common cold.

Speaking of the Z-Virus, I was displeased to see that my Infection was at 7% already. I knew I should be grateful that Kids Mode had slowed down the rate of Infection, but the fact was that Kids Mode was no cure and I wasn’t sure when or if the Capes Online developers would make one for me. I was no programmer myself, but I wondered how difficult it really could be to make a simple antidote to a virtual virus. Surely it wouldn’t take them more than a day.

My thoughts were interrupted when Cy—who had entered the bathroom before me—spun around and said, “Okay, we’re here! The secret entrance to the basement is right—”

“Here?” I said, pointing at the wall next to the toilet, which was glowing blue for some reason.
