A group of boys and girls are shown in the movie’s opening moments congregated at a place and deeply absorbed in a video game.
since they have participated in this game.
Here, all of them were competing, and the winner would receive numerous prizes.
There were numerous persons in their vicinity.
The only people who needed to be murdered in order to gain points in this game were the other players.
As soon as the game begins, every participant starts murdering each other a lot, which helps them score a lot of points.
Here, there was a boy who was the game’s expert and a girl who was just starting out.
It indicates that he was an extremely seasoned player who had amassed numerous victories and awards.
The old player continues to advance with ease due to his experience as the audience yells to thrill them.
However, the new player needs to put in a lot of effort and overcome several obstacles in order to advance.
For this reason, she grabs a bottle of Impulse 9, an energy drink, and downs a large amount at once.
In reality, energy drinks are strong beverages.
In addition to gaining strength, drinking it causes it to slow down 100 times, which causes it to move exceedingly slowly.
She now eliminates everyone, including the veteran player, and wins the game thanks to this quality.
and she begins to share her joy with her pals.
However, she was unaware that her joy would give way to sadness.
All of the energy drink bottles are strewn about when the bottle suddenly breaks.
Subsequently, the girl finds herself in a sudden altered environment, giving birth to three children.
Her home was incredibly dirty and old.
There was no electricity and nothing like what we have in the present period.
Her agony has greatly worsened upon realizing this.
She then discovers that the outside world is empty and devoid of anything except rubble after leaving the house.
Even the air was toxic, making it impossible to breathe and necessitating the use of a mask.
The scene from the past, where it all began, is then presented.
We see “Val,” a young woman who enjoyed gaming.
Her life’s ambition was to become a professional gamer and amass enormous wealth and notoriety.
It is now 2017, and she used to live in a house with her dad.
Her father gets her ready for a job interview at the hotel one day.
When she gets upset, gets dressed, and leaves for the interview.
Her companion was waiting for her outside in the vehicle.
Then, a little ahead, “Val” settles into the rear seat, swaps out her interview attire for everyday attire.
Then she plays her favorite game, “Field of Fire,” in place of giving an interview.
The major objective of the multiplayer game Field of Fire is to kill other players and survive until the very end, just like other games.
“Val” believes that she will win millions of rupees and undoubtedly become famous if she wins this game.
She will then purchase a gaming PC for herself with that money.
Then, her acquaintance informs her that an elderly and gifted player by the name of “Roy” is going to put on a fantastic show in today’s game.
Thus, exercise caution; the female becomes a little tense.
Then, they get at the location of the game quite quickly.
where “Roy,” the former footballer, was posing for photos with his admirers.
”Val’s” acquaintance informs her that you must play with complete focus before the first round begins.
in order to somehow make it to the game’s finale.
To which “Val” responds, “Yes, don’t worry, I will do this because I want to somehow defeat that haughty “Roy.”
After some time, the game begins and everyone is seated in front of their laptops.
Initially, “Val” outpaces everyone, but eventually, “Roy” overtakes her with ease.
She was having fun playing the game with the visitors since she was so confident that she would win.
”Val” gains some points by exploiting this.
She started attempting to kill “Roy” in order to remove him from the game as she was about to win.
”Roy” kills her and removes her from the game, thus her strike backfires.
In spite of this, “Val” advances to the championship match, which was scheduled for tomorrow.
Roy then removes her mask and tries to talk her out of the game when she goes out with her friend.
He then joyfully begins posing for photos with his admirers.
Following this, a man who used to own a cafe approaches “Val” and makes an inquiry while “Val’s” companion is going to fetch his car.
Are you aware of the way to win the game?
She’s a little shocked to hear it.
He gives her his card and walks away before she can ask him anything.
”Val” tries to sneak into her room as soon as she gets home.
Her father, though, happens to see her.
She tells him the complete truth as there was no way out now that she’s been discovered.
that my purpose for going was to play a game, not to conduct an interview.
Her father becomes enraged upon hearing this and informs her that she must report for an interview tomorrow in order to complete a job there.
However, she blatantly declines, telling her father, “How can I go? Tomorrow is my game’s final, and it’s very important for my future.”
Like all the other parents, “Val’s” father informs her that these games are pointless and that they have no future.
But “Val” is still unyielding now.
She walks to her room and ignores him.
She eventually begins to watch the game she played today online.
”Roy” at the top makes her very angry.
She then looks at the card that the café’s owner gave her.
and she recalls having discussed the game’s secret to victory.
She now goes straight to the card with the writing on it because she feels the need to exact revenge and succeed.
This was actually a game cafe where a few folks were having a great time using their computers to play games.
The cafe’s owner then approaches “Val” and instructs her to take a seat so they can play the game.
Now that he’s only telling me to play the game, “Val” is shocked.
Why then did she give her card to me? However, she disregards it and begins playing the game.
She selects the hardest level in the game, which she is unable to play.
When the café owner notices this, he hands her the same Impulse 9 energy drink, explaining that it’s not your typical energy drink.
To witness its enchantment, ”Val” pays attention to her advice and sips some.
After that, she notices that everything around her is moving very slowly.
As a result, she can now play the game easily even though it was previously impossible for her.
But when she awakens to reality, she finds herself seated at the table in front of the cafe’s proprietor.
“Val,” who is now taken aback, asks her what transpired.
whereby she states that the person who consumes Impulse 9, an energy drink, will experience a slowdown in time.
and you haven’t had this energy drink for an hour, but you have no idea how the time has gone.
Which is why you’re taken aback.
and it now says that the more of this energy drink you consume, the slower the time will be.
The time will only slow down for the individual who consumes it now.
However, time will actually continue to advance at its current rate.
and he will have arrived much ahead of schedule when that individual awakens.
Now, though, he’s asking her for $500 in return for an energy drink bottle.
“Val” is astonished to hear such a large sum, but she won’t accept it.
primarily because it was quite costly
and secondly, she thought that doing so would be considered cheating in the game if it meant winning.
However, she later shows him the phone on which “Roy’s” was phoning.
She then realizes right away that “Roy” also used this energy drink to win the game.
He doesn’t allow any other player to stand in front of him for this reason.
Now that she is aware of everything, she prepares to purchase the Impulse 9 bottle.
Then the following day, she places the Impulse 9 bottle next to her computer before the game begins.
and as soon as the game begins, she takes a sip of it. By using every opportunity to slow down, she gains points.
”Roy” notices this and takes a small bit of Impulse 9 as well. One by one, he climbs to the top, leaving everyone behind.
As “Val” realizes this, her pressure mounts, and she also feels deeply let down.
She now finishes the full bottle of Impulse 9 because of this.
She had consumed a lot of energy drink, therefore at this point, she is moving extremely slowly.
She takes advantage of it, killing “Roy’s” player to win the game at last.
Her friend is among others who are happy for her, but then her impulse 9 bottle breaks and falls to the ground.
This was a scenario we had already seen.
The scene now recurs from this point, showing “Val” seated in the same old house.
holding her infant in one hand.
After some time, her friend—who is now her husband—arrives here dressed in filthy clothes.
He puts the youngster to sleep and tells “Val” to get ready.
”Val” was shocked and, like the elderly, shivered at realizing how strange she had become.
When she notices the ring on her hand, a lot of questions begin to cross her mind.
She now sees two kids who were addressing her as “mummy” as she descends, trying to get herself back to a somewhat normal state.
When she realizes this, she passes out.
When she emerges, she finds that everyone is terrified and that the only thing outdoors is dust.
and we had previously witnessed this exact scene.
She is shocked to see that they are living in a tent and making public use of the restroom.
She then learns that, as a result of using Impulse 9, she is 12 years ahead of schedule, having reached the year 2029.
since for her, time was simply slow.
Now that reality was here, the rest of the world was moving at its own speed.
and she was taken aback because, living in slow motion, she had no idea how far time had advanced.
The entire space where they were residing was encircled by high walls.
since the desert was kept apart from this entire region.
In the desert there lived a deadly beast that preyed on people.
They repeatedly defend the main gate in order to get away from them.
She also learns that the individuals who previously drank the impulse 9 were awake at this precise moment in the past.
Whoever employed the impulse 9 is the one who was given the appellation “Pulsar.”
Because to the overuse of impulse 9, many were unexpectedly living many years earlier.
which caused much confusion to exist throughout the entire earth.
Needless to say, this completely wrecked everything, and everyone here thought Pulsar was to blame for everything.
They were therefore forbidden from residing here, but they could only identify Pulsars in one method.
In other words, a person is a Pulsar if they have concerns about their current time.
”Val” now closes her mouth to speak negatively of or treat Pulsars badly.
and she conceals the fact that I am a Pulsar from everyone.
It indicates that I have not used the impulse 9 at all.
”Val” recalls her father after returning home.
However, she notices a pot containing her father’s ashes on the side table.
She begins to cry as soon as she realizes that my dad is deceased.
A policeman arrives in the interim and instructs her to clean it in the restroom.
She initially objects, but she is forced to comply when he tells her that she is a cleaning inspector and that this is her responsibility.
The poor girl had to spend countless hours cleaning the toilet.
Eventually, though, “Val” grows accustomed to her new, run-down surroundings.
She completes her duties and leaves her office one day to pick up her kids from school.
where her daughter exclaims, “Mom, you are my hero,” and hands her a drawing
However, ”Val” was so exhausted that she failed to notice the child’s drawing and ignored her.
Upon returning home, she discovers her spouse had been seated on the bike and vigorously peddling.
In actuality, he was creating electricity to play the field of fire game because there was none there.
”Val” was delighted to see her favorite game and was taken aback.
She sits down to play the game with her kids after her husband leaves the house.
After some time, her husband returns home, frantic, telling her that he had forgotten that it was her turn to be the guard today.
As a result, the man in charge did not have an opportunity to enter.
Thus, he fell prey to that perilous being.
They both bolted from the house as soon as they saw that man’s wife crying.
”Val,” embarrassed by her error, begins to cry and head home.
However, her spouse advises her to fulfill her obligations as they have not yet ended.
Subsequently, she feels depressed and finishes the guard’s task.
She remained depressed even after returning home and realized she couldn’t live here because this isn’t the place for her.
She plans to travel to that desert because of this, as she was a dangerous beast there.
However, she tells her husband in a letter that she is a pulsar before leaving.
She then departs the following day with the goal of never returning.
When her husband sees the letter the following morning, he is completely disbelieving.
As “Val” meanders across desolate terrain, she comes upon a dilapidated structure that happens to be the gaming cafe.
She enters the cafe and begins to explore.
She is shocked to see the café owner when he emerges from behind the counter.
He does not explain to her why he is still youthful, even though she can see that time has had no influence on his age.
The cafe’s proprietor discovers during their chat that “Val” was awake as of a week ago.
Here, he acknowledges that Impulse 9 did indeed ruin a lot of lives.
He continues, saying, “Val, I have a plan to get you out of all of this.”
He gets ”Val” a large bottle of Impulse 9 to consume.
Then he adds, “You will never return to this world if you drink it.”
since it must be the time of many years ahead for you.
You must have passed away before then, therefore you won’t be coming at this time.
Yes, I do advise you to play the game and drink at the same time.
”Val” now finds this idea of him appealing.
She puts herself next to Impulse 9 in order to play her preferred game because of this.
but when she stoops to retrieve the Impulse 9 bottle, her gaze first lands on the drawing her daughter had created for her.
and declared you to be my hero.
Giving the sketch to her causes her to lose herself in her past and begin reliving the wonderful times she shared with her family.
After that, she makes the decision that I will live out the rest of my days with my family and refuses to consume the energy drink.
With this goal in mind, she returns home.
as she observes her spouse acting as a gate guard.
”Val” has offended him so much that he opens the gate and keeps her out.
and accuses you of being Impulse and defrauding everyone.
”Val” then expresses regret for what she did.
As she continued telling her narrative, she heard gunfire coming from a distance.
because their region was being approached by that deadly assailant.
Then it is revealed that this collection of humans is the dangerous beast that has been created.
However, they used to consume human flesh, making them enemies of mankind.
Her husband swiftly opens the gate as she approaches, bringing her inside.
The alarm then goes off, frightening everyone to the point where they flee.
“Val,” one of them inquires, and she responds, “We’re all heading toward a ditch.”
as there is nothing we can do to stop such assailants.
She quickly devises a scheme to gain everyone’s trust despite her sadness at realizing this and the fact that everyone is furious with her.
“I will stay here and try to stop those attackers as long as I can,” she tells her spouse.
and he wasn’t going to abandon her in this situation.
She follows Val’s advice and leaves the area when he instructs her to go for the sake of her kids.
Following this, Impulse prepares to battle with the large bottle she brought.
Once at the gate, the attackers proceed to launch their attack.
At this point, “Val” learns that “Roy” was the one leading this group of assailants.
When ”Roy” informs her that I had actually been here for a couple years earlier.
I governed everywhere, attacked everyone, and now look, I’ve turned into a nasty leader.
and ”Val” is unaffected by his threats because I can kill everyone who stands in my way.
because she had consumed the full energy drink before these people arrived.
She tosses the empty bottle in Roy’s direction as evidence.
Then she abruptly returns to moving slowly.
She then starts shooting at the gas can.
As a result, every attacker raises himself into the air.
Then, she opens fire repeatedly, killing everyone but “Roy,” but regrettably, she also takes two shots.
She sustains injuries as a result and drops to the ground.
”Roy” then appears and fires at her, missing the mark.
She takes advantage of the moment and finishes “Roy” by firing shots at him.
She then shoots a flare gun up into the sky.
Her spouse recognizes this as a sign that everything is safe around them.
He is completely safe.
Her husband was pleased to point to the sky, on the one hand.
Val, on the other hand, was counting the seconds till her death.
And when she was dying, she was grinning. This is where the movie closes with her smile.
