The system appears in front of us with "Calculating..." written in there while we enjoy the sunrise. Commander Ari still can't be a Giver.
"It seems like you need to discuss about something. I will back to my tank." Say Commander Ari while bringing three cups of coffee. I think those are for his subordinates and himself.
He leaves the small stove and the pan beside us.
"Let's see what we got after we kill the Goblin King." Say Eka.
"Should I wake up the girls?" Say me while sipping coffee.
"Let them rest, they didn't really rest well, like us." Say Renald.
"Like us? If you think about it, that was abnormal they didn't wake up after this truck stepped on something." Say Eka while pointing his cup to Renald.
"Oh, yeah, I forgot." Say Renald while remembering how we woke up.
"These coffees make your brain not working you know?" Say Eka.
He just quiet and keeps sipping the coffee from his cup.
"Anyway, is there any inventory system?" Say me.
"Nope, this system is quite stingy for his player." Say Eka.
"Is there any chance that someone called god watching us play and subscribing to us?" Say me while imagining about some of the comics I read.
"That's just in comic you know?" Say Eka.
"Is it no?" Say me.
"Yeah, if I am thinking about it... Yes, This whole incident seems like comic." Say Eka while sipping his coffee.
The system finishes its calculation. My contribution on the Goblin King raid is the highest. I was the one who killed it with bombs after all. Judging from this, I should get the rarest prize. After the window that shows my contribution, the system shows the contributor of the raid. There are someone that I don't know who they are. It looks like they awakened in the middle of the raid.
After that, the window of the item appears for me to choose one of these items to be my prize. There are Dagger of Blood, Staff of Oz, and Roaring Knuckles. Really? This is not what you call a good item but, maybe Eka is right. This system is a bit stingy. I choose Dagger of Blood. The system just gave me one dagger instead of two.
Dagger of Blood is the item that can give regenerate health points about one percent of the opponent's health. This is a joke! I mean, I even don't know their health now. There are extra Stats for STR +10 and DEX +15 from this item. There is a story description too. It's written "Someone calls it a curse, someone calls it bless, no one still survives with this weapon. There is just blood, blood everywhere. No one knows, No one silent.". Luckily, there is no minimum level to this item. I hope there is no minimum limit to use artifacts because, in the WEO it does.
"What you got?" Say Eka.
"I got Sword of Rural with no extra effect." Say Renald.
"I got Quiver Wind." Say Eka.
"That's good to get an arrow with an element." Say me.
"Yeah, there is an extra attack too that applies to each one of my arrows." Say Eka.
"I got Dagger of Blood." Say me.
"That's a good item, yeah good item if you can know the health bar of monster." Say Eka.
"Still, that was a good item because it has extra stats in it." Say Renald.
"I think this is just my luck." Say me.
We keep silent and admire our first item. As I have this dagger, I can't summon the daggers that I have before. The artifact he got suddenly disappeared.
"How you did that?" Say me.
"Just imagine your item not being equipped." Say Renald.
"Like this?" Say Eka while trying to disappear his weapon. He did it.
"Is that explanation really enough?" Say me. Though, I still try it. Yep, that's perfectly I can do it.
"Leave it to your desire and the item will come." Say Renald.
"Why don't we leveling up?." Say Eka.
We agree with that idea.
"Where you are going?" Say Putri from inside the truck.
"Leveling up." Say Eka.
"And, you leave us?" Say Putri with his pouting face while crossing his hand and looking toward us.
"You know, this is like a... Play, yeah playing a game with your friend." Say Eka trying to explain what we do.
"Oh, then?" Say Putri.
"Want to join?" Say me.
"But the others still sleep." Say Putri.
"..."
Suddenly, I grab Eka's shoulder.
"Let's leave the child-friend problem. Okay?" Say me while smiling at him.
"Y-you will leave me too?" Say Eka.
"Let's fast, time is running." Say Renald while jumping from the head part of the truck.
"Get it." Say me while following him.
"W-wait!" Say Eka while trying to follow us but, Putri's hand is faster than that.
We leave them on the truck. Now we are searching leveling spot.
"What will we hunt?" Say me.
"Let's see around the lake." Say Renald.
We run beside the lake to the southway. There are some Catfish, Crocodile, and Snow Tiger. Even in this tropic weather, there is Snow Tiger?
"How about the Snow Tiger? They give us good experience points to level up us fast." Say me.
"You think so?" Say Renald while looking at Snow Tiger bathing on the lake.
"What's your first plan actually?" Say me while stop running.
Renald stop running too.
"I intend to raid a dungeon below the sea." Say Renald with a serious face.
In WEO, there is an area that called Raid Area. Dungeon, the Raid Area that contains the floor to the underground. The more floor, the deeper we go. We judge the level of the Dungeon from its floor. The deeper the floor, the higher the level is. Every five floors, there is a boss monster. These boss monster follow the theme from four floors before the boss floor but sometimes, we will face the boss that does not meet that criteria. For example, there is a party or group hunt that will explore this kind of Raid Area, The monsters are very weak, After they come to the final floor, the difficulty changes from lowest to highest.
There was a time when a party member of some kind of guild attacked the floor Dungeon and ended up fighting Azure Dragon which usually appears in the Dungeon with more than 100 floors. Dungeon has a time to break out. This breakout may let the monster out but not for the boss monster. They are still inside the Dungeon waiting for the player to face them and kill them to prevent the monster from Dungeon breakout getting out. After the last boss got killed, the Dungeon disappeared.
The second is the Tower. The tower looks like a tall prism building. There are many kinds of this. Pyramid Tower, Glory Tower, Sky Tower, etc. The shape and what is inside are different but, there is one thing that keeps this kind of tower same. The hunter must kill the boss monster on the top of the tower.
Third is Maze. Different from the two before, Maze usually contains traps and rarely contains monsters inside it. This is the most difficult Raid Area because the hunter must avoid the trap and fight the boss monster in the somewhere of Maze. Hunter killed the boss monster and the Maze disappeared.
There are more Raid Areas but, these are the basics that cover the rest. The others are just some variant of them. Maybe some are not variants but, the System inside it is still the same.
Those Raid Areas have the same thing. The player in WEO called it Scale Time. In short, if a hunter raids one of those Raid Areas in one month, the time in the real world just has passed two days. Sometimes, the time in the Raid Area is faster than real world too. This system is still a mystery around WEO players because it doesn't make any sense. I mean, how could you travel to the future if the others are still in those times?
"Are you not aware of the Scale Time?" Say me.
"After this travel over, you will go on adventures around the world to level up yourself and your sister right?" Say Renald with his sharp eye on me.
"Yeah, we will." Say me looks confused.
"Nothing, I just intend to spend the last time with my friend." Say Renald with a smile after a short pause moment.
"How about that thing?" Say me while pointing to the tower that I can see it from where we are.
"That's not what I plan though but, I think it's okay." Say Renald.
We start going to the west. There is a tower that I can see from the lake. If I remember from the map that Commander Ari showed us in the middle of the meeting for this travel. This place is around Kebasen. That city is the only one that comes to my mind if I judge it from the lake that connects to the south sea of Java Island.
After a moment we are running, We arrive in front of The white Glory Tower standing up in front of us. Glory Tower is a Tower with a lube shape. There is four bird statue that surrounds every five floors. This kind of tower usually has A type monster that becomes the last boss with a 90% chance. I don't know why someone wants to count the percentage of this Bird-type boss appearing. I was speechless when I learned it from a website four years ago.
Not fear, we continue to walk to the gate. What's the monster that we fight? Thinking about it, my heart beat faster. Excitement, tension, and bravery fell through my veins. I can't wait to fight and earn some rewards.
