Online Cluster: Great Tomb
Chapter 2: Preparation of New Equipment
After accompanying Dimas to try out the new weapon he obtained last night, we plan to immediately return to the base via the safest path we can find while avoiding other players and monsters.
On the way to the city of S36, of course we talked to each other. After all, let's just say I've known almost all the clan members I made myself for over a year. Well, even if it's just online.
“Oya cuy, where did the AWM bullet get from? Or buy?”
I asked him that because as far as I was last night he only found his gun without any ammunition.
“Ah, yes, buy. In S1 many BS can make. The price is also pretty cheap. About one hundred thousand credits per twenty-five bullets AWM.”
BS, a designation for the players who choose a job to create or make items according to the needs of other players. Well, it also actually just stands for the word Black Smith, which is blacksmith.
“Weh, still in cheap. If I bought it, it might be cheaper. Oya, Winchester or Lapua?”
“Hm.. Lapua if not wrong. 338 Lapua Magnum.”
All I'm asking is what kind of bullet AWM uses. The AWM has two types of bullets, 300 Winchester Magnum and 338 Lapua Magnum. To be honest, I only knew that far. But I guess each bullet has its own advantages and disadvantages.
“Why not try using RF aja Rei?”
“RF, huh? Emh. I can't. After all, the treatment is difficult if the RF. I prefer AR to HG. Maintenance is easier.”
“Iya also anyway..”
There are 6 types of general weapon categories that are often used by players, namely HG, SMG, AR, RF, and LMG. Moreover, then the weapon was rarely used by players. Examples such as MG type that weighs extraordinary or even can only be used in one place and is difficult to move let alone carry, or GL type, or, which is a category of weapons that can hurl explosives such as RPG and MGL.
Of course, not only the type of firearms that exist in this Cluster World. Almost all weapons in the real world can be created in this world. They want swords, spears, bows, and everything else. This also applies to vehicles.
Even so, there was one very striking thing between firearms and sharp weapons that existed in this world, namely the status of weapons. Firearms do not have status features or assistive systems for aiming, but rather the original abilities of the player. As for sharp weapons having status attributes in them, such as strength, speed, and other effects.
Just say for the type of sharp weapons it would be better if the forging itself or made by the player with BS work because it can issue potential according to the ability of the player. In some cases, a high-level BS can fill in the status attribute of a sharp weapon according to the wishes of its creator. But there are still limits.
After a while, we reached the city and headed straight to the center of the city to switch sectors.
“Oya Rei, you go to headquarters first. I'm going to S1 again. My boyfriend wants to play, so want to go first.”
“Hehh... okelah! Not invited to enter the clan?”
“I've taken the plow, but he doesn't want to. So, yaahhh..”.
“Iya yes. Yaudah I went to S51 first. Put the stuff. Lazy has a mess of stuff. Go to a friend's place.”
We went to the respective sectors. In an instant I reached the safe area of sector 51 and immediately headed to the headquarters which was certainly outside the safe area. Arriving inside the headquarters, I saw two people who had just walked out of the storage room.
“Oh, are you active? I thought I was the same Dimas who was online.”
They were both named Dawn and Shah. Just like me, they use real names in this game. For Dimas, IGN he's actually Zatfley, but I'm more comfortable calling his real name.
“Iya. This is Syah not mabar to get credit he said.”
“Say I want to kill other players to be able to credit the same item!”
“Hehehe.”
Dawn laughed a little at what I said. Well, it is one way to get credit in this world apart from the work of the player, or a business like BS. You could say, this is the fastest way if you are lucky. The disadvantage of this method is, if you find a player with higher abilities than yourself. Instead of getting a profit, it will lose everything it brings.
“Where are you from Rei?”
Shah asked me.
“Hm? From.. buy\- uh no. Grab items order Lazy.”
“What stuff?”
“3D printer's. It's going to put in the storage space.”
I started walking and they said nothing, but followed me into the storage room. There are some neatly arranged wooden cabinets and tables there. In each closet there are boxes that become the personal storage of each member of this clan.
After removing the item from the inventory, I placed it on one of the empty desks there. Well, I don't understand how to use it, so I'll just put it here, let Lazy take care of the rest.
“What did it do?”
Hearing Dawn's question I answered him as far as I knew.
“Emh. The way it works I don't understand. Don't you guys want to come out yak?”
“Ah, yes. Want to come along?”
I quickly rejected the invitation.
“Gak! Anyway no! I still remember when the three of us last played with the Shah!”
“Jeez remember aja, hahaha.”
Dawn laughed even though I frowned. While the person being talked about put an innocent pretentious smile on his face. The last time the three of us played together was a defeat I will never forget during Cluster World.
“Yaudah we leave yak. By the way cuy, you searched for Zia the same two new members earlier. Try Tanya via klan.” chat
After saying that the two of them started walking away from the room and left.
“Member new? What does Fadli mean by Novan?”
I opened the clan chat feature and it turned out that they realized that they had inquired about my whereabouts. I was not aware of any notification from earlier. In addition to asking me where I was, they invited me to play together. Well, for now I sent a chat rejecting their invitation because there are things I want to do in this sector.
I took my storage box from one of the cabinets. After opening it, I simply took out a black coin with a skull and snake emblem on each side, then put the box back into the previous cupboard and left the headquarters, heading back to the shopping town.
The place I went to was a shop with leather armor on display on each side of the room. A place that is not real to see. Without lingering I walked towards someone who was standing behind the reception desk and looked like a shopkeeper. She's a girl.
I just gave the black coins I had brought without saying anything. He looked at me for a while, then asked me to follow him. I followed him without asking anything. He took me to a narrow dressing room. This room is a little narrow for two people, but that is not my purpose in coming to this place.
The woman pulled a lever that was on the right side of the room and looked like a clothes hanger. Then slowly, the floor of the locker room moved down like an elevator. It didn't take long, we came to a basement with almost all white and tools I didn't understand were everywhere.
A moment after I stepped out of the elevator, the woman remained inside and once again the floor moved and was now heading upwards. Well, I don't mind that and keep going straight while looking at all sides.
I saw someone working on something on his desk. Is he writing? After being right in front of his desk, I could clearly see what he was working on. He was making a blueprint of a weapon that looked like a sword.
“What is it, cak?”
“AHH!!”
I asked quietly, but it left him a little surprised until the stationery he was holding fell off. Wasn't he too focused to not notice me?!
“Ah, Ega. Sorry I didn't realize.”
He bowed his body to pick up the stationery he had dropped.
“No problem. Eh\-do not use call “Ega” napa?! Shame to know!”
I raised my voice a little because he called me that. It was a call my parents used to make at home, but she used it on me when she found out.
“Ngapain shy? There is no one else here.”
Well, it's got a point. But still!
“Ya yes. By the way\-by the way, it's not usually quiet here. What's up?”
“Ah, I'll leave today.”
“Hee..”.
Let me introduce. His name is Ilham, IGN he MONKEY while in the game. I don't know why he chose that name. Well, that's his business. He is the owner of this place, employs more than 20 people with BS work, he is also a BS with a high level. I knew him in the real world and we were his age, even though he was a little older than me.
“Come here to see your order?”
“Iya.”
While nodding in agreement I saw him open his inventory and pull out a stick then give it to me.
“The design is as you requested. Length 170cm excluding blade, diameter 2.5cm, stable, light weight, made of best ulin wood.”
I slightly swung and twirled the wooden stick. It feels very snug and the surface is smooth. Once I was satisfied I put it back on his desk.
“Emh! That nice. It feels so comfortable! For iron knife type..”.
“What if steel D2? The shape will be adjusted so as not to interfere with mobility. Also I will add a comfortable handle later.”
“Aah... okay! Please, yeah! For status, 100% PP fill is also enough.”
“Mild! But I lack the ingredients for the spear core. In order to bring out the best potential of any sharp weapon, that core was needed. Chrome is good for the core, but Chrome Ingot.” will be even better
Chrome's? The item that the sector 20 monster boss dropped if not mistaken. The monster boss respawn only happens once a month. As far as I know, this month someone has defeated him.
“From sector 20, yes? Hasn't anyone defeated him? I have to wait next month. In addition to defeating boss monsters need a lot of players.”
“Not really. You just need to beat the\-people who beat him. I know your skills, Ega!”
“...owh.”
Well, that way it could have been. Looking for their whereabouts I don't think is a difficult thing. There is a stone in S1 called Hero Stone and it gives rise to the name and location of each person who beats the boss every month. The problem is who gets the barag. Because it is unlikely that everyone will get the same stuff.
As I was thinking that, Ilham walked to the corner of the room, took a scroll from a closet there and came back to me while showing me what it was. It was clearly a map of the area. And from what I saw at the right end of the sheet it said S20. Is this the entire map of the S20?
Just like the map in the usual. Color can represent the high or low of an area in its original place. And what is seen on this map, it is clear if the S20 mostly has a lowland.
“Actually the one who defeated the S20 boss was one clan. If not mistaken, their headquarters is around here.”
He pointed to a point outside the safe area. If it's outside the safe area, I don't think there'll be a problem. Only, what he pointed to was a plateau with both sides of a lowland. Seen a very contrasting color change.
“This... cliff area?”
“Iya. Until three days ago, the number of their members was still 34 people. Maybe there's a change today. Can you?”
Hmm.. the number is not a problem. It's just that I need something that can be used for climbing. Because it's impossible for me to get through the front door of their base. Then only between passing the side or behind it. Well, I guess I have the right thing for this situation in my inventory right now.
“Kurasa. Now I can too, but I need a weapon.”
“That's what I want to hear. How many?”
“Many.”
He smiled, then pulled the desk drawer and pressed a button that was inside. In a moment, the entire white room flipped upside down and many weapons were on display. From firearms to sharp weapons, even explosive devices.
“You have everything you need here. For your spear, what do I need to add while you're gone?”
I stopped to think about it for a moment as he recorded what I asked. This is my weapon for close combat. Maybe it would be better if there was something that could be used as a support weapon. Since this is a spear, then I need a small and fast fit. Using HG may be but less effective. Then…
“Can you make a tactical throwing knife? I think it will fit.”
“Tactical throwing knife? It can! For the spear, other than the one before, anyone wants to be revamped again?”
“Hmm...what's it..”.
‘I think for now is enough. If you think of anything else I just have to contact him.’
Instantly my eyes were drawn to the blueprint he had been working on and thought of something.
“Then... Morpher!”
