PFM: LEGACY

Ep. 24 Meetings at Night and News Shows on Television

Toran was silent for a moment.” What was the intent of which party lord was the most influential in the Rockhelm fortress?”

Ron laughed, then said,”Hahaha.it's easy to talk to smart people.”.

Toran smiled, “You praised. It could actually be said that in the fortress of Rockhelm was divided into three factions.

First, General Hector's faction. He was the commander-in-chief of the Southeast Alliance forces in the Thundernest mountains. If there is a suitable word to describe his character is Patriot. He always put the soldiers and the interests of the Alliance first.

Although he had a great salary, he and his family always lived a simple life. There are rumors that most of his salary was left to the families of the soldiers who died while on duty. His influence was enormous among his soldiers and staff. Some were very fanatical about him.

If there is a shortage of it is the tendency to make frontal decisions. As commander-in-chief, his tactics were more often costly on the part of the Alliance. But luckily he was quite open to criticism.

He handed over public affairs to the civilian staff, a rare thing to do by other generals guarding the fort.”

Toran continued, The second” is the New Front Merchant Union, although its office is in the city of New Front, but its members are business owners around the Thundernest mountains. Merchants throughout the villages and hamlets of the North including the fortress of Rockhelm were under his influence. I suggest Frozen Anvil enter this organization when this store opens.

And lastly, is Rockhelm Academy. In addition to General Hector, the opinions of the academics at Rockhelm Academy were greatly heard among the military staff and bureaucrats who graduated from it.

There is often a cross-opinion between loyalist General Hector and alumnus of the Rockhelm academy. Good thing General Hector is always open to criticism, so it does not result in widespread conflict.”

Ron responded,”Enough to know it at this time. We have no qualifications to do anything. Our focus other than this store, is as soon as possible to reach level 7. Toran, do you have access to buy a legacy shadow core? For the price, no problem.”

“Sure, actually, legacy shadow core transaction is legalized.but it will not be cheap. Because this is a strategic resource, only up to level 5 only legacy shadow cores are publicly traded.” Toran answered.

“It's enough. What is the average price of legacy shadow cores per level. And where can I buy?” Ron asked enthusiastically.

“There are 2 places that legally sell legacy shadow core. First, the auction stands in each city, the closest of which is in the city of New Front.

Second, the Clan gathering in Lighttower city. Legacy shadow core price in clan gathering is more expensive. But the quality is beyond doubt. You will easily find a legacy shadow core that teaches aura skills and various other rare skills.

In my opinion, buying at auction is more profitable, besides being much cheaper than what is sold at clan gathering, the distance is also close.

For the price of legacy shadow core in auction,

• 2 Levels around 100-300 deca

• 3 Levels around 300-1000 deca

• 4 Levels around 1000-6000 deca

• 5 Levels around 6,000-15,000 deka.”

Hearing Toran's explanation, everyone in the room fell silent.

Ali muttered, 'it's expensive'.

The Others murmured, 'it's cheap'

Dino, Ron and Delia looked at each other and nodded.

Dino then asked,”What day is the auction in the city of New Front held?”

Toran said,”For an auction selling antiques and valuables held every 3 months. But if only sale legacy shadow core, we can buy it anytime.”

Adam then asked through party channel.” Delia, how many deka did you bring?”

“After buying this building and production equipment, plus the purchase of production materials, all that is left is about 267,000 deka.” Answer Delia.

“Tomorrow I bring 260,000 deca. For 7,000 deca you keep, if there is urgent need.” Adam says.

“I think 7,000 deca is still too much. But, alright.” Delia agrees.

“Alright Toran, for the plan to resign, please postpone until the day after tomorrow or the next day. We need you to take us to New Front.” city Adam says.

Toran seemed to disagree, he said.”Please give me the chance to resign tomorrow. It won't take long. I just need to talk to the director of the adventurer union. We must maintain good relations with adventurer union, this place is the root for every adventurer.”

”Toran is right in this. Our base remains the adventurer union. We must not set them aside. We leave a little afternoon.” Ron said

“I'm sorry I was too rushed. Alright we leave tomorrow afternoon.” Dino.

“Next, about this store. All production equipment has been purchased. Next to hiring store employees and assistants. We need 14 assistants and 3 store employees and don't forget some waiters. Toran, can you set it up as soon as possible?” Delia asked.

“Today I have told some of my colleagues. Likely tomorrow someone will apply for a job.” Toran answered

“Alright, I'll accept them.” Delia.

“I plan to disburse group activity 2 tomorrow. Our new member, Sakuya needs to adjust to humanoid life. So, I had Fiona take her around the castle and socialize with other members.” Ron then explained Sakuya's state.

“Kitsune? It's catchy. Will the tail continue to grow as the level increases?” Delia says.

“Maybe.”Ron replied briefly.

Next, they talked about today's experience. Adam recounted the condition of the mine and the discovery of rare metals in the mine. Team 1 will exploit the mine for some time to come.

Delia said that the animal saddle and stirrup mounts will be ready tomorrow morning. Team 3 chose to buy semi-finished products and changed them according to the characteristics of their respective mounts that had been observed earlier this morning.

Ali, Wulan, and Coki did not talk much at the meeting at the time. But Ali learned a lot from this meeting, a lot to consider running a guild.

Ali imagined, as this guild got bigger, not limited to the studio Frozen Anvil, of course the problems to be faced more complex, so it was appropriate Ron expected Ali to grow soon.

'I need time to learn about formations. These two days I am too busy hunting, so there is no time to raise the level of my profession, it seems like tomorrow I have to lock myself up to immediately raise the level.’Ali muttered

After an hour, the meeting was over. Team 1 and Ron will head to the city of New Front to buy a legacy shadow core. Team 2 will be at Rockhelm to rest and help team 3 set up shop if there is no activity.

Toran then stood up, he said,”been connected there is nothing I can do, I will go home first.”

Delia said,” Good Toran, send our greetings to your wife and your three children. If one of your children is willing to work here, we will welcome him happily.”

Since there was no more agenda today, Ali after telling everything, he went offline immediately.

.......

Time shows at 15:50.

Ali is not used to her new life. A lot of things happened in Legacy, but in the real world only 9 hours passed.

In the studio Frozen Anvil not installed Automatic Life Maintainer commonly called ALM. ALM is a plug-in on RDM that allows players to play Legacy for long periods.

In it there are nutritious jelly and electrolyte drinks that are automatically inserted into the mouth when the body needs nutrients.

There is also a special device that holds feces and urine released by the body. But because of the controlled nutrients provided by ALM, little or no impurities are released. Even if there is, it is because players eat and drink before going online.

According to Ron, the device is very risky. Inserting food even in liquid form and little by little into the mouth when the body is asleep allows the user to choke.

After all, long-term use of ALM will lead to muscle atrophy or a decrease in muscle mass, as muscles are not used too often.

Because it is offline on a regular basis to eat, clean up, worship and exercise is very important for a Professional Legacy player.

For example, Ron and Adam, despite having played Legacy for 6 years, their bodies remain fit.

After Ali came out of the RDM, he drank water first and then headed to the mosque for Ashar prayers. Other members are also offline. So the members of the Muslim religion perform Ashar prayer congregation.

After praying, Ali went to his room to take a bath and taught him some of the Qur’an. Ali from the beginning was determined not to reduce his worship even though he was a Professional Legacy Player. This was also done by some other members.

Like Fiona for example, she is from a devout Catholic family. From the beginning he asked to be given time on Sunday morning to worship.

The team 1 team as well. He asked for a special time to go to the temple. And at times like Nyepi's day, she's not online at all.

Adam while discussing the contract confirmed that in the studio Frozen Anvil, Ali will not be prevented from performing worship. That is the right of every member. After all, Adam was married and knew the importance of private time for someone.

After teaching, Ali felt tired. This feeling is more precisely mental fatigue than physical exhaustion. He wanted to immediately return to the Legacy to sleep. It's 16:20 now. At least one and a half hours to sleep before Maghrib time. That means at least 6 hours of sleep.

This is what is different from his routine before becoming a professional player. Like all members of Frozen Anvil's studio, Ali no longer sleeps in his room, but sleeps in Legacy.

When Ali asked some of the studio members if there was any influence on the body after a few years of not sleeping in the real world after they closed his account in Legacy. They answered that nothing was different.

Ron argues, because when we play in our Legacy in a semi-sleep state, special sleep time in the real world is not needed. The effects of sleep in Legacy were no different compared to in the real world.

So Ali went down to the 1st floor and entered the RDM.

“Bismilbornrohmanirrohim.”.

Ali's into the Legacy

.......

After entering, Ali was on the 3rd floor of the Frozen Anvil building. Seen, the meeting room was empty. Ali then left the room and headed for a room.

During the day, Team 3 only bought additional furniture, because the furniture left by Glaen was complete.

Inside the room there are 2 bunk beds. The smell of paint on the wood cot bed still stings.

This reminded Ali of his room in the orphanage. It's just that, if in a one-room orphanage inhabited 5 people. In this smaller room can only be filled 4 people.

On the side of the bed, there is a small table and a chair. Behind the table is a window facing the back of the building. There was nothing to be seen there because of the night.

In the room, Dino, Ron and Dika were already asleep. Yes, this room is reserved for the male members of team 2. Since Ali arrived late, she got a bed on top of Dino's bed.

Apparently they immediately entered the legacy after Ashar prayers. Grumbling inwardly, Ali climbed into the top bed. After a while, Ali finally fell asleep.

.......

Time indicates 6am when the system alarm rings. Everyone who slept in the room also woke up. After saying good morning to the others, they went offline.

After Maghrib prayers, Frozen Anvil members gather for dinner. After dinner, the 1st and 3rd team members are back online, while the 2nd team who are on holiday except Ron and Fiona, wait for Isya's Prayer first before going online. Today Ron will go with team 1 to go to the city of New Front, while Fiona promises Sakuya to look around the fort today.

Dika and Dino were playing table tennis at the gym. Ali saw the news on TV. And Ratih plays his smartphone.

Today's news is of no interest. In addition to news of the election campaign warming, due to the competition of the two candidates, news about the economy and criminality was also presented.

Then it was time for the news that was trending today.

Trending news today about the opening of the 7th Legacy server. From the Pacific Dream Indonesia branch issued a news release on social media. The point is that players from Indonesia who have entered server 7 at this time is 2 million players. But they are optimistic that this number will increase, as players who have work activities usually play after 7 p.m.

After the news, the television station invited two guest stars to discuss the trending topic. It is better in which city Indonesian players start and what they should do first.

The two invited guests were 2 senior players. First is Deus, his real name is not published. Ali had heard of him. He was a spirit-type player from the Redclaw guild that was pretty calculated on server 4. And the second is Shasha, Ali seemed to have heard the name recently, but did not remember where.

Then start the conversation.

Host: Good evening Deus and Shasha at Liputan Indonesia Afternoon. How are you guys doing this afternoon?

Deus: Well, Redclaw is currently focusing on building territory, so it's not too busy.

Shasha: Well, like any new player, I was busy hunting. Pray I get the appropriate Legacy shadow core level 2..

Host: Shasha, as an active anchor on server 5, why choose to start again on server 7?

Shasha: Because it's saturated. As many players know, server 5 is now controlled by the 9-star Alliance. The life of the little player there is so sad. The hunting grounds were controlled by 9 guilds and dozens of their subguilds. For the guild being to probably still be able to negotiate to enter. But for anchors who don't have a backing like me, I have to wait for them to finish hunting, in order to get in. So I decided to start again on server 7.

Host: Then which city did you start?

Shasha: Not in town. But at the Rockhelm Fortress.
