Uprising: My Life in a Video Game-Chapter 26: Knowledge is Power II
Chapter 26 - 26: Knowledge is Power II
"That's basically everything." Just_Cooked said after recapping his game intro.
"Uh... That's a lot more detailed." Tina crouched on the floor and took out a screwdriver from one of her many pockets. Looking at the floor, she effortlessly wrote on it. Well... she carved words on it.
Just_Cooked raised an eyebrow. He could feel how hard the floor was. Carving words into it was no easy task. 'She must be at least Level 4. Let me check...' Just_Cooked searched for the name Tina on the game search interface and pulled up her profile.

-You are in the same room-
'Well, I was almost spot on.'
She has been tagged that by a lot of people huh.' Just_Cooked thought.
Taking a look at what she was writing, Just_Cooked knew for sure that those tags were spot on.
Character 1: May
Gender: Female
Status: Mechanic of some sort, likes fixing cars which Character 2 finds weird, a little dismissive. As a unknown relationship with Jacob. Has a mother who might have experienced something bad. Was aided emotionally by Character 2. As a PhD in something. Had obstacles that were supposedly remove by Character 2.
Character 2: Kenny
Gender: Male

Situation 1: General
Place: Supposedly in or around Linton County
Status: Due to a 'gas leak' inhabitant of Linton County are acting violently. They are probably turning into zombies. Not much gotten from news but it is proven that zombies will more likely be the theme of this survival instance game.
Situation 2: Immediate Environment
Place: Garage
Status: Food is low and cold. Last 3 days tops. To time 1 day is 10 minute. I formerly said 2 hours 30 minutes for 3 weeks. Correction: 3 hours 30 minutes. The sun is already going down seeing the growing darkness in the garage. We are locked in the garage from both doors.
"Bruh! You need to take things easy girl. No need for all this calculations. What are you even playing on- Laptop, PS, VR, Phone?" Just_Cooked said with a worried smile.
"VR. Its the best to use if you want to get the full experience if you ask me." she said continuing writing. At that moment, the lights were caught off. The only light that was there was coming from the little piece of sun light from outside.
"Well, will I be damned." Just_Cooked said with a frown. "Just when we were bonding." he continued with a look of dismay.
"I was expecting this. If the food were to defreeze in this way it will be really unhealthy and bring down our health. Besides, my energy bar is getting low and we need to eat. Eating cold food will just slow us down so we need to find a way to get it warm. We also need light and electricity. Putting all this together and looking at what we have..." Tina spoke to herself non stop. She then turned to look at the car.
"This is a Toyota Corolla, a 90's model. Umm...." a slight smile crept up her face.
"I hope you don't get an headache from thinking too much. Just chill, forget about the game for now, let me in about you-" Just_Cooked was surprised by how much she talked. This was just a game. He knew winning was good but she needed to calm down. She is starting to act like an AI or something.
"JC, can I call you that?" Tina turned to him and asked.
"You can call me anything you want, I don't care." Just_Cooked did a hats off motion to Tina. He was a chilled guy, especially to girls. He believes that having fun and helping others is the way to live long. He didn't want unnecessary stress.
"I want you to see if there is a socket and some bulbs. If you can also get me some wires also, that will be great." She said to him. "It will really help out."
"..."
"Huh... sure, why not. I mean, I do have to support you since it's part of my mission I guess." Just_Cooked preferred more action stuff rather than searching for stuff, but what say does he have in the matter.
"Thanks" she turned her gaze to the car. She got closer and inspected it a little. She began fiddling with something's and taking things apart. She eventually stopped when she found two things, a car alternator and a car dynamo.
"Here is the stuff you asked for." Just_Cooked came back with the items she asked for.
"Thanks. You even brought copper wires, that's great!" She appreciated him while taking the stuff.
She then sat in a lotus position and began conjuring up something. She use some tools to take the car dynamo apart. She began fiddling with somethings and Just_Cooked was just bewildered. He had no idea what she was doing and just watched. 'I think I will just let her cook'
"See if you can get me some strong flat magnets that around the length of the first division in your ring finger. As many as possible. Square like if possible." She said to Just_Cooked.
Just_Cooked didn't bother asking why and just went to look for something that fits that description. After looking for a while, he came across a bunch of flat magnets of different shapes but mostly squares and rectangles. "Will these work?!" he shouted towards her direction.
Looking up from what she was doing, she glanced at what he was holding. "Yeah, send it over." She said looking back at what she was doing.
He walked over and gave them to her. She then started putting them one by one into some crevices in whatever she was holding. She made them north, south, north.... She then asked for some gum, he brought it and she gummed something. The cycle continued. She would ask for something, Just_Cooked will get it grudgingly, she fiddled with something and then repeat.
This went on until whatever she was doing was finally completed.
It was a make shift generator of some kind. It consists of two parts: a car dynamo transformed into a 250v electric generator and a car alternator. A belt was use to produce a belt system. Wires extende out of the thing she created which was connected to a socket.
All in all, her creation was complete.
"Ok" she stood up, took a tool of some kind and used it to jumpstart her creation. It immediately began rolling and transferring energy using the belt to the car alternator.
"Moment of truth..." she took the bulb and proceed to plug it to the socket.
'No way that will work! I mean, I doubt what she did was really anything.'
The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.
She plugged it in, but no light was produced.
'Ha! I said it. May was a mechanic, it doesn't mean you are.' Just_Cooked puffed his chest out.
"Ummm... I wonder what the problem is... oh, I see" she took a plied and squeezed some wires together.
"Let... there... be... light"
WOOSH!!
The bulb lit up immediately.
"It worked!" Just_Cooked was surprised.
"Ha! Ha! Good thing I took that physics class. Knowledge truly is power."
