[System announcement: Congratulations to KingAce, Morris, H2O, XeroMo for breaking the fastest record of dungeon level 110 at 00:15:35]
{party} XeroMo: ?????
{party} Morris: did you see that?? Ace, what the hell just happened?
{party} KingAce: I don't know... Foe just fell all of sudden. We did not even start fighting yet.
{party} H2O: do you think it's sort of a weakness setting? I saw Foe pressing his chest earlier.
{party} Morris: I don't think so... Foe had flight ability, there's no way he would have a weakness like that.
{party} KingAce: .....
{party} Morris: my guess would be that Foe had a user behind his character. Just like the village girl Falma."
{party} KingAce: !!!
{party} Morris: I'm only guessing it, so if you want to confirm, why don't you ask Ronald?
{party} XeroMo: who knows, maybe it's the same user from last time. (|||゚д゚)
{party} H2O: doesn't that mean it might be a male user? Σ(O_O;)
{party} KingAce: .....
{party} Morris: .....~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Senior Xi Qi, are you alright?"
Xie Xi Qi was coughing while he was lying on the couch in the lab, with Mi Zhou fanning him using a notebook. He had pretty much calmed himself now. Xi Qi sat up and took the tissues to wipe off the cold sweat on his face. His face was pale to begin with, but now it was even more paler in white.
"I'm okay..."
"Senior, I think you should pass the work to someone else in the department."
"No need, it's just because I went up too high earlier, as long as I don't, I'll be fine."
Mi Zhou sighed. This senior is really..... "Okay, but I think you should go home for now. It's your day off tomorrow right?""Ah."
"Rest well then."
Xi Qi stood up and left the lab. It was night time but the streets were even brighter than in daylight. Xi Qi walked along the shops and saw the ads for TMO. He pushed the door and entered.
Early next morning, a certain game capsule was delivered to Xie Xi Qi's apartment. He placed it in the study room where he usually kept the door locked whenever he left the room. Xi Qi made himself some chicken porridge for breakfast before he went to set up for the game. He had a new TMO player card made as well. Xi Qi removed his glasses and made himself comfortable inside the capsule and inserted the card into the system machine and the game loaded.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Welcome to The Morpheus Online."
"Please choose your gender, race and your username."
Xi Qi input, "Male, hidden race (code520), Mr7.""Hello, Mr7. Please choose your main class and sub classes"
Xi Qi, "B&B ranger. Sub class; the scout, dancer, engineer (code314)."
"Hidden race code 520, Engineer code 314 had been chosen. Please provide your staff ID number."
"ID number 237731."
"Please choose your appearance and vocal."
Xi Qi gave himself straight waist-long black hair with slanted bangs covering an eye and the mole, and his pupils were oceanic blue. His clothing was the starting newbie ranger. A brown colored one. With a wooden bow and a cluster of arrows. He retained his own voice, not changing it even the slightest.
"Please choose the continent you would like to be your starting point."
Xi Qi pressed the button, "Random."
"GreenJade Continent. Thank you for playing The Morpheus Online!"
A bright light flashed, and the character Mr7 was standing in the middle of the starting village, Vonte.
Mr7 opened his screen to check his character's data. All newbies had HP300 and MP200, but the screen showed that his Mr7 had HP450 and MP300.
Luckily, I had the codes list from the inside team, Xi Qi thought. He took a glance around his sub classes and nodded approvingly. His inventor class was successfully recorded. He then closed off the screen.
For now, let's earn some Gs and change my equipments. If I'm not wrong, there's a place where I can fast leveling while earning Gs, Xi Qi thought to himself.
Mr7 moved, and left Vonte Village in a flash.One month later...
KingAce flipped up another NPC's skirt. He sighed as there was no reaction again. How many times had this been?
{party} Morris: you really don't get bored doing that, do you? Please don't tell me you're addicted to doing it. -_-||
{party} KingAce: I'm not addicted.
{party} H2O: how about we go leveling for another hour before we go offline?
{party} Morris: OK.A bunch of level 74 wild rabbit-like creatures with long sharp claws called Rupis were currently being one-shot killed by the arrows. No one there could have seen who shot those arrows. The three players stood there watching as all the Rupis were killed off. Then a level 97 purple clothed player came to their view. He was Mr7, Xie Xi Qi's character. He now had changed to a new purple robe that comes with a veil and his inner clothes were black. His weapon was a self invention. A high offensive powered blood red crossbow.
{nearby} Morris: hey, Mr7. Would you like to join our party? We're all level 120. And we're going to the dungeon.
{nearby} Mr7: which dungeon?
{nearby} H2O: level 112 dungeon.
{nearby} Mr7: add me party.
{party} Mr7: can I get the freehand skill book if they dropped?
{party} KingAce: OK, no problem.
{party} H2O: let's go.The metallic armored titan, had tetra arms holding different melee weapons. It's name is Scale. Ace led them forward after buffing their defences. H2O summoned a treant, which sent out tree branches to bind the boss, restricting it's movements. Morris had turned invisible and sneakily attacked. Mr7 stood beside KingAce and aimed his crossbow at the eye of the titan. KingAce stared at Mr7 as he attached a spell on the first arrow he slotted onto the crossbow.
{whisper to KingAce} Mr7: what are you staring at? Aren't you going to launch your attacks?
{whisper to Mr7} KingAce: oh, nothing... You stay here, don't move inside the aggro range.
{whisper to KingAce} Mr7: roger.
Ace held his heavy sword and flitted to the front. He swung the sword, launching one of his fastest attack. The boss's HP went down by half in a few minutes. When the HP finally reaches the 5% mark, it suddenly went berserk.
{party} KingAce: everyone be careful! The boss tags his target in random!
{party} Mr7: OK.
{party} Morris: OK.
{party} H2O: OK.
Scale disappeared from his spot, and teleported next to the only ranger. Ranger class was the weakest if the enemy closed in. KingAce gritted his teeth and quickly rushed back to help Mr7.
{party} KingAce: Mr7!! Quickly dodge the attack! Delay for a moment, I'll back you up!
Mr7 didn't replied to him. He was concentrating on the boss attack. Scale raised the machete in his hand. And swung down at Mr7.A/N: Hello this is Kazuki Yuu, the writer of this story. All names were fictions, not related to any novel, manga or anime. Everything is based on imagination. ≧∇≦
