  After hesitating for a long time,I finally decide on my choice-Most locations are relatively easy,but they have their limiting factors,while the mountains have the highest potential out of all the choices should I succeed in the initial struggle.

  As I walk through the third door,the detached voice once again reverberates through my head

  

  

  

  

  As the numbers fly past,various sensations overwhelm my mind...noticing i now have a body,I try moving it,not realizing there are now some people looking at me weirdly…

  Luckily,a male sounding voice wakes me from my stupor

  ??-Chief?Are yo-nevermind..We’ve arrived at our destination...your orders?

  I look around,while realizing the current situation...I’m currently standing in the middle of a hundred-man group.Thankfully the surrounding people mistake my looking around as a sign

  of pondering about our next actions,otherwise the stares I’m getting would’ve been even weirder…

  Anyways,I’m now standing in a valley surrounded by mountains and sparse trees.

  My confusion coming to an end,i relay the orders that i prepared while in the void space.

  Five dozen people will scout the area,while the rest work on establishing a “safe zone”.

  The plan is to make use of the surrounding trees to build a large square-shaped camp with wooden barricades around it,as well as watchtowers placed at the corners.After giving out the orders,i join the scouts in surveying the surroundings.

  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  A couple hours pass,and the nearby area is slowly getting mapped...as i make my way back to the now semi-constructed camp,a sudden shout comes from my right-

  Scout-WOLVES INCOMING!

  Almost immediately,howls start to appear,first lone ones,slowly gaining in intensity...soon about 50 wolves are coming from multiple directions,Ascertaining the situation I quickly order the scouts to retreat to the camp...the problem is,its too late...the wolves quickly shorten the distance… 1000...500...100 meters...realizing they’ll invenitably catch up before reinforcements from the camp(which is about 1km away) arrive,I decide to rally the nearby scouts.

  As the settlers are all armed with iron-tipped spears,I decide to form a half-circle with our backs next to a large rock.

  As the few dozen wolves come closer they start to slow down...i feel the strength surge through my veins as [Adrenaline] automatically kicks in...a second of silence...the first wolf,that i assume is the alpha charges straight at myself.I instinctively thrust my spear in it’s direction,however it nimbly jumps to the right,evading the strike,while another wolf makes use of the opening,jumping at my throat.

  I quickly pull my right arm up as the wolf’s teeth closes on the wooden spear...it struck right between my hands.As the wolf struggles to push me down,an ally’s spear runs through its throat...catching my breath,i glance left and right as i once again see the alpha wolf from before,this time trying to bite down on a scout’s throat.The human desperately struggles to push the animal off himself using his hands...I quickly kick the wolf off from his would-be prey and deliver a quick stab to its throat...with one last dying howl the alpha wolf perishes...the battle continues for the next few seconds,as the wolves try to avenge their alpha...they soon retreat,however not before inflicting a few minor bite wounds on my body.

  As the combat ceases, [Adrenaline] wears off,causing me to faint from exhaustion,barely noticing the windows appearing before me:

  [DING]
