Online Cluster: Great Tomb
Chapter 6: Preparation and the Desert
An hour had passed since we had last gathered to discuss his future plans to complete the quest Dimas had obtained. Now everything has gathered except Shah and Novan.
While waiting for them to return, I told the others to go to the storage room and prepare the items they would bring. Since what we were about to go to was an ant nest, it was obvious that firearms were less effective in such a sealed place.
Sorry for Dimas who uses big guns like RF type. Well, although HG and AR type firearms are still tolerable, I would suggest a sharp weapon type.
Me, Haqqi, and Bang Sema were sitting on the sofa of the main hall while waiting for them to get ready. After about five minutes of waiting, the front door opened, then the Shah with Novan entered the headquarters.
“Oh, here they are! Already got the\-goods?”
I stood up and approached them. Novan was seen opening up his inventory and taking out the item I asked for and giving it to me.
“Twenty, ‘kan?”
“Yup! Here, have you.”
I gave each one an ozyline to them.
“Dah, there to the storage room! Ready\-ready!”
They left without saying anything. After that I gave the ozyline to Haqqi and Bang Sema, then went to the conveying room to give the ozyline to the others, as well as preparing the items I would carry.
Arriving there I give ozyline to all those who have not got it.
“There are no? … Okey.”
Because no one asked, so I assume they got each. I put the rest of the ozyline into my storage box after retrieving one and retrieving some items inside.
I took two HG-type weapons, an Ar-15, five grenades, a sword and a spear. The rest I brought some bullets. And that's when I somehow thought of a weapon I didn't have.
“Oi, no have flamethrower gak?”
They said that none of them had the weapon. Because of that, I asked Lazy to check on something.
“Hm... Laz, in the data\-data Celestial there is a blueprint flamethrower gak?”
“Testing. But it's not very useful. We don't have the material to make ammo.”
“Ah, true too. Let's try it out first. Don't forget to bring a sharp weapon! Oya Laz, bring an empty storage box as many people as you come!”
He gave the sign “Oke” with his hand. I left the room and returned to the main room. There I sat on an empty sifa and took out the firearms I had taken from my storage box.
I made sure everything was loaded with bullets, then activated the safe. These are the weapons I borrowed from Inspiration. May I not die and lose it because I intend to give them back.
After reinserting my fire weapons into the inventory, I then took out a sword that I also retrieved from the storage box. I had never used this sword before, so it was still in a good state even though I had never taken care of it.
On the other hand, I saw Haqqi and Bang Sema also trying to look around at the items they were holding. Haqqi held the katana he used to carry, whereas Bang Sema was seen carrying only a pair of gloves that looked like a special order.
The pair of gloves had four transparent spines on each side of the finger, and there was something that looked like a transparent plate on its back.
“Bang, that's the material iron?”
“Hm? Oh, this?”
He showed me his gloves. I just nodded as he showed it to me.
“This is not iron. But polycarbonate super. It's hard to get the material.”
“Ah, emh... I get it!”
Materials that at special density can even stop 5.56mm bullets and reflect 9mm bullets like rubber bullets. Easy to make, but hard to get.
The problem is, in Cluster Online there is only one way to get the item, which is from sector one boss. In addition, the percentage to get it is only 1%. Makes it one of the most expensive items here.
When viewed again, the raw material of the cloth used for the gloves looks like Aramid. The real-world material was invented by Stephanie Kwolek and is an acronym for the word aromatic polymide. Well, the equipment is appropriate for him.
“By the way\, long bow yours why, Haq?”
I asked him that because he didn't seem to carry it. Well, maybe he put it in his inventory. It's just, I want to make sure.
“I didn't bring it. Because the raid with the owner katana was not used.”
“That's the reason?”
He's nodding. I was surprised that he only gave such an excuse, even so I understood it was like not having time to use the main weapon. Because at the time of the raid I also had no time to use the Ar-15 that I really like.
I checked the status of the sword I was holding. Because I've never used it, so it's only natural that I don't know it. And it turns out that the status in this sword adds 40 ASPD.
ASPD stands for attack speed which affects the weight of the weapon, sharpness when swung, and mobility. Although his own status meant attack speed, the speed in question depended on each player. In other words, the true ability of a player.
“Already? No one is missing, ‘kan?”
I gave them time to make sure their inventory to make sure no one was left behind. After that we left the base and headed for the city. Once there we moved to sector 73 using transporters.
As soon as it gets to sector 73, the sunlight really does look very bright and if not for the ozyline, this place will feel very hot. Although this is the first time I went to sector 73, it is very clear if this one sector is extreme.
“Dim, where to now? I forgot.”
“Wait..”.
He took out his quest paper. Well, I'm not the one holding the quest paper, after all I'm a forgetful person.
“...to the southeast.”
“OK!”
Afterwards, we headed to the southeast gate of the city. During the trip there, all we saw were NPCs. There are no players here. Well, because the weather is like this, there is no way any player would want to go into this sector.
The design of this sector building is mostly made of rocks arranged like most small houses from the east-central. At least, that's what I saw in the other game.
When it reached the southeast gate of the city, outside was only a desert. I mean, it's really just a desert and it doesn't look anything as far as the eye can see.
“Hm.. this if it gets rough, it's been turned.”
I said something that might happen to us. But I hope it won't happen.
“Dim, activate the quest cuy!”
“Oiya not yet well.”
He took out the quest paper and activated his quest. How to do it just by receiving the quest by ripping the paper vertically. After that the paper will look like it was burned by a blue flame.
The way to refuse questpun is almost the same. Only, if you want to reject the quest from the quest paper is to tear it horizontally. That way the flames that appeared to burn the quest paper were red.
“Father, now the car!”
I told him to get out the car he should have bought using my credit. He took out two cars of the same type.
“Humvee? I thought I'd buy a little more fancy. Well, as long as it can offroad no problem.”
“Can do this!”
I was honestly expecting a fancy car. But I don't think it's possible to remember the terrain we had to go through. I think I'll be patient.
“Dimas same Fadli can drive, ‘kan? You guys drive! Get in the car you want.”
“Cuy, I can only motorbike!”
He raised his hand and said he couldn't. But I don't care about that.
“Ya yes. Assume it can! In fact, I know you can!”
“Job...”
I laughed a little at the response. In the end, the car that I owned there were 5 people, along with Dimas as a driver, Rei, Shah, Puteri. The rest is in another car.
I told Shah to sit in front with Dimas. While I sat in the back with two beautiful girls with a big smile on my face. Before we left I asked those who carried compasses.
“Anybody brought a compass?”
I asked in a slightly elevated tone.
“Ah, I brought it!”
Lazy says he's got the compass I need.
“I borrow.”
After taking the compass from his inventory, he threw it at me. After that I immediately gave it to Dimas.
“We first cuy. Let them come from behind. Don't get yak misdirected!”
“Casual..!”
After Dimas started the engine, we set off further southeast with a compass and 10km to go.
