Chapter 646 A crisis
Rudra logged out of Omega and the moment his VR pod opened the sunlight blinded his eyes for a second.
" What the h.e.l.l ... Who came in my room ? " thought Rudra as he covered his eyes and adjusted to the daylight for a second.
He always made sure to keep the blinds in his room closed when he went into gaming because he precisely hated such situations . But it seemed like someone had been in his room when he was gaming and had chosen to open the blinds.
Rudra looked over his room and found Max"s school books on his desk. It seemed like the little one was studying in his room for the past few days.
Rudra chuckled , he loved max too much and due to the stressful time that he was recently undergoing in the game he could not focus on Max much . The two hardly spent time anymore and the kid was growing up faster than a puppy.
Everytime Rudra saw Max something or the other changed about him. His baby fat was melting fast and he was become a thin kid with a typical " Im grown up now " att.i.tude.
Since Rudra spent 14-20 days in the game , everytime he came back to the real world once a month he would notice that Max would have added one of two centimetres to his height.
Rudra thought about this and laughed as he went for a shower to freshen up , his body stinked after near 25 days of constant gameplay and although the gaming pod took care of nutrition , it did not take care of his body odor as after every session he stank like he had taken a swim through the sewers.
Thankfully this time there was no black goo to clean off his body , as it was only his natural sweats and body odor that needed to be taken care of.
Rudra wondered if he should complain to the cuber corp about making body odor eliminating pods , but then realised he was in no position to demand stuff from the cuber corp , he was just one of the billions that played the game.
At this point in time , Rudra had no idea what he meant to the cuber corp , and what his true destiny was as a human.
******
( Meanwhile Max)
Max came into Rudra"s room and saw that the gaming pod was open , for a moment he felt excited as he put his ear to the bathroom door and heard the running water sound from inside meaning that Rudra was in the showers.
He was about to scream his brother"s name as he wanted to meet him so badly , when he stopped himself and looked at the VR pod.
The pod was very different from the gaming helmet that he was given to play the child version of Omega where the only thing he could do was learn social values and do missions like help the elderly or find the missing pet.
It was a introduction to the VR world , but nothing like the game that Rudra played as an adult . But Max was really curious about how Rudra"s side of things worked hence he sneakily positioned himself inside the pod which was way too oversized for his body and hit the close b.u.t.ton.
This was a Blunder on Max"s part to try this , but he was just a kid and did not know any better , and on Rudra"s part to leave such a unique device in his home instead of his office where Max could not reach it.
Rudra"s gaming pod was one that was custom built for cultivators who had their mana circuit opened as the pod collected the mana of the world and supported the user playing the game with the world"s mana.
The reason why Rudra"s gamers reflex was way past a common players was because his body was not only fuelled by highly nutritious nutritional fluids mentaining a peak physical condition , but also because mana was fed to his mana circuits allowing him to tap into his potential as a cultivator.
Very few pods had been made worldwide , for special users by the cuber corp and they were absolutely not meant for any non cultivators to use.
The moment max his close , the needles came out of the pods lower surface and embedded into his spine sending a searing pain down his body while the iris scan failed.
Had max been in a normal pod , there would be no needles attatched to his spine and after the iris scan failure , Gaia would have ejected him out.
However now while he couldnt log into Omega , Max was fed mana through the needles in his spine , according to the mana circuit path of Rudra"s body.
Max screamed in pain , as the scream was soo loud that Rudra heard it while being in the showers , as he could feel a foreign force invading his body and a hot magma like liquid destroying his innards.
Max"s mana circuit was not like Rudra"s and unlike Rudra it was not opened up either , hence when mana was forcefully fed into a blocked mana circuit and that too through incorrect channels , it caused max a lot of pain and suffering.
Rudra instantly came rus.h.i.+ng out from the bathroom wrapping only a towel around his waist as he panicked and opened the VR pod through sheer strength alone.
" MAX ... MAX ". Rudra shouted as he ripped the steel of the pods top and performed a feat of strength that was beyond the realm of mortals.
As he looked at the blood inside the pod , he immediately picked Max up and saw the needles detatch from his body , however Max had lost consciousness at this point.
Panicking , Rudra rushed downstairs as he screamed " AMBULANCE ... AMBULANCE ".
But he did not wait for one , as ignoring his panicked mother he rushed to the garrage and put max in his super car and drove away at mad speed.
Rudra crashed open his own gate , as he did not care about damages at the moment and rushed straight towards the hospital that was a two minute drive as he called the hospital while being in the car and informed them of his arrival.
His driving was reckless as he skidded down the roads full speed , and the police bots of the upside had to warn him of his rash handling. However Rudra only glared at them and said " f.u.c.k off ". As he did not give a d.a.m.n at the moment .
While he did not notice the result of his own anger , the police bot that he glared angrily at and told to f.u.c.k off was short circuited and fried as it became dysfunctional.
Rudra skidded down the hospital emergency sector and drove his car straight inside the emergency operation room as he lifted max and rushed outside.
A car suddenly drifting into the hospital made the guards and the doctors astonished at the ruckus , but the moment Rudra stepped out of it everyone became silent and instantly focused on his emergency.
It could be said that Rudra and Ethan were the two biggest bosses in upside and Rudra was to get the best of the best service no matter what his actions were.
Hence as he put max on the OT , a team of doctors instantly rushed to help.
The head doctor asked " What happened? ".
Rudra panicked as he stuttered and said " He , he entered my gaming pod ... Then blood from his spine ... He is B+ve ... Help ".
Rudra was loosing his d.a.m.n mind to see his brother unconscious , and he could not even form proper sentences at the moment , regardless the doctors understood as they ripped Max"s ts.h.i.+rt off and took a look at his backside injuries.
There were 10 small wounds on his spine as blood was constantly leaking from it , the doctors immediately got to work and started the emergency treatment.
Rudra was escorted outside to not contaminate the area , as within the next 10 minutes his mom dad , Ethan , Neatwit and Naomi all came rus.h.i.+ng to the hospital with others on the way.
Although Rudra did not understand the nature of Max"s injuries he felt responsible for Max"s injuries.
He could not look his mother in the eye to explain what had happened , as he only prayed that the injury to Max"s spine would not paralyze him.
Ethan grey did not need to be here , but the moment he was informed that Rudra had stormed into the hospital he left his meeting and came to the hospital through his private helicopter without a seconds delay.
Going in to ensure that no expenses were spared for Max"s treatment , he thoroughly shook up the staff and the hospital team.
Nothing could be allowed to happen to max rajput , Rudra absolutely doted on the kid , and any injury to him would devastate Rudra.
