Soul Monarch: The Eclipse Feast Online

Stranded, Lost

I took a deep breath as I was returned to the Virtual Hall. Yeah, very deep breath.

I feel a little disappointed because one — trial opportunity involving the method of suicide— must be wasted. After all, at least I died without feeling too much pain though ....

"Yes, if I had known more about the monsters in EFO, I don't think this would have happened."

EFO. Once again the world there surprised me a little. Yes, let's just say that the behavior of the Dwellers and Monsters is different from each other, not exactly the same even though it has a large pattern even though such polarization itself can even be found in the real world.

So, is it possible that each individual, both inhabitant and monster has a stand-alone intelligence? Not governed by one primary intelligence?

Well, let's shake our heads at the idea.

Although the official EFO page explains that EFO is a multi-server platform that is run in a single unit, I think that such a thing is still not very realistic to actually happen. You can imagine how much data should be processed per second.

Well, according to my rough estimates, even the fastest supercomputer at the moment — owned by my country— will also not be able to process that much data in real time. Moreover, the possibility of this is minimized by the developer of EFO, IUC Corporation which is a private party.

Also, the amount of data has not been added to the data generated by the players which will certainly make the amount of data more bloated. Although the possibility of it does not mean it is absolutely zero.

"Anything. I just have to read a book about monsters later" I said.

Well, it's better for me to read when I'm in EFO because it will help me improve my Linguistic level.

Ah, speaking of Skills, it seems that I also have some Skills at the maximum level and can be developed to the intermediate level. Better to remember and develop later.

Yes, the stats increase bonus given when Power Level increase is calculated from the basic statistics owned. And of course, the higher the value of existing statistics will be the greater the statistical increase bonus given.

"Although I don't know exactly how much of an increase bonus it is anyway.”

The statistical value in EFO expressed in letter connotations is to blame in this regard.

Seeing that Despena's time was over, I logged back in at EFO. And yes, I'm in the middle of nowhere now.

I had a random respawn, one of three forms of respawn in EFO.

The first form of respawn is a respawn in a designated place on condition that the place is a protected place, this model itself is quite limited because it can only be used if you are in a certain area. Yes, a room in the inn is an easy example of that sheltered place.

Two, respawn in a particular vehicle. And even if the vehicle is moving at high speed, you will still reappear in that vehicle. True, this is a method to penetrate the first method that can only be done within a certain area of coverage.

Last is what I'm going through right now, a random respawn. Yes, this happens when both of the above options are not available or the player's choice in person. And .. now I'm experiencing it without my own wishes. Again.

"It's a good thing I have Night Vision or I won't be able to see anything at this exact moment" I murmured.

Well, it seems that I was at the bottom of the ravine where I fell before. Looking up, I could see that the cliff beside me was completely perpendicular and yes, quite slippery.

I think it's gonna be hard to get back to where it was.

"Huhuhuhu,” my laughter is confident. None of this will be a problem for me. ”It's a good thing I've brought a compass up until this kind of little problem won't bother."

"It's a little doubtful itself that it can help you, Dirae."

"Why can you say that, Mega?" Didn't you always set up a bad omen?

"If you're not sure what this self says, you can see your compass."

"—!?"

... What Megaera said is true.

I saw the compass needle twisting, up and down awkwardly. Trying to hold the compass steady, I hope it will make the needle show one direction for sure but ...

"... The compass needle is still turning."

"Now you know what this self means, don't you?"

"Yes, that's right. And isn't what you think is too precise, Mega? Even if you're slow enough to notice the lizard's strange behavior.

"That's because the behavior of monsters can change, Sirae.” Megaera said to defend herself. “However, what this self can see has a different perception to you, Dirae,”.

Yes, with a question mark floating when you hear it.

"Dirae, you've seen some of these abilities yourself have, haven't you?"

I nodded, recalling what I had seen on the results of the assessment on Megaera first. Even though I didn't want to remember that at all, the value was too broken compared to me. Even now.

If not for the intervention of various factors such as the soul of Augusta, the decline in statistics and the level of the Megaera Skill, and of course the support of Primal Bleses-Curses. I don't know if I, 'Dirae', will survive until now.

"If so, it's easy. How do you think this self can see, hear, feel, and speak even though it has no related organs?"

"Yes, that's because of the Five-Sense Skill Defense, right?"

"You're right about that. And little review, this ability makes itself have to use other methods in order to feel the five normal senses that are owned by living things, right?” megera. "And sensing magnetic waves is one of the few methods that this self must use."

"Yes, I understand that now."

It seems Megaera has become sort of .. okay, this is a bit difficult to explain. I want to say not human but he wasn't human in the first place. In any case, at its core Megaera's senses work unlike those of living things today.

"So, which way should we go now, Mega?" my many.

I'll hope a little for this. Well, from the beginning Megaera has shown better senses than me, okay? And I hope the sense of direction he has is no less good but—

"It's a pity that this self doesn't know it, Dirae."

The answer Megaera gave immediately disappointed me.

Good. Yes, always remember to never expect anything at EFO. Even though Megaera, having been detached from the previous two spirits rarely disappointed me not to expect too much, myself.

"This sense of self-direction is quite disturbed as experienced by the compass," he explained.

It seems that because of that, Megaera can know that the compass is useless.

"So, does this mean we're really lost right now?"
