Golden Experience

Episode 21: Son of a bitch.

Finish chores and log in.

When the avatar closes its eyes, you see a sight that has hardly changed since just before you logged out.

I've been logged out for about an hour. The queen is still frozen, too. The surface is getting a little wet, but it would be more like condensation than melting. The state of the queen is "frozen".

"Morning, boss. Is that enough?

"Morning, Kelly. Oh, I don't need to sleep that long. On the contrary, you may sleep for a long time."

Sometimes I may not be able to log in for a while due to a sudden errand. I can't think of any such errands for now.

Rae asked if there was anything while she was asleep. Looks like Remy went back once to check on the White Devils. I'm back here now. The White Devils remained the same and seemed to rest in the cave.

That would mean that, unless the memories of the relatives during the past hour were automatically generated and overwritten, or anything like that, the relatives were acting at their own discretion even during the master's logout.

Come to think of it, the player keeps his avatar staying asleep while he logs out. It is not natural that only family members can disappear. I guess that means that family members also exist as part of those who live in this world.

If so, while the player logs out, maybe it's possible to make money by letting his family hunt. The possibility of just an official bot surfaced. It is a quick fix project.

I just have to verify this. I'm not thinking of doing anything wrong. If it's possible with the specifications of the game, it's just one of the regular ways to play. Never malicious use, etc.

"Kelly, I'm sorry, but there's something in the woods for a second... whatever, can you hunt for a small animal? I'm just gonna get another night's sleep. I'll be back in about the same amount of time, so bring it to the cave by then."

"Okay, boss. Can I take everyone else?

"Oh, sure. I don't mind asking the White Devils for help if I have to. I don't know about hunting prey... I guess I'd rather be a little big if I had the help of the White Devils. To the extent that I would never be able to."

"Well, yeah, I'll have the white devil follow me, and I'll hunt for as many boars as I just had."

"Nice to meet you. Oh, wait. Remy needs to stay here."

"What? Boss."

"Oh Remy. I'd like to ask you for another job."

When Rae called Remy's Skill Acquisition screen, she made him get "None" for "Leather Craftsmanship".

Remove pig fur from the inventory before Remy.

"I think I figured it out, but I just let Remy get the 'leather workmanship' skills. Now, you know how I can handle this pig's fur beautifully?

"Oh...... Yes, boss. I get it. This is what happened to me..."

"Okay. Do you have any tools you need?

"What would be more convenient... But I can do it without it, I guess."

The effect of the skill is truly magical when it comes to being skinned without any tools. It helps.

"Then do it while I sleep. I don't care if it's not over by the time you wake up, but be as polite as you can. Can you do that?"

"Yes, boss"

"Then I will sleep again. Make sure you wake up in as much time as you did earlier. Okay, Kelly, Remy, I asked for it."

"Yes."

"Oh, I got it, boss"

An hour later, Rae logged in again.

Good morning, boss.

It's Remy. On the ground, there's a stunning carpet of pig fur.

"Morning, Remy. Does this mean the skinning is over?

"Yes, boss. I was watching the boss sleep because it ended unexpectedly early."

"That's embarrassing...... Was there anything wrong?

"I found my sleep quiet and my lashes longer"

Looks like he was just really looking at his sleeping face. But to the extent that the NPC doesn't seem unnatural staring, player avatars seem to be sleeping in bees. I had an unexpected verification.

"Kelly and the others yet?

"Yes, I'll see how it goes?

"No, that's fine. He'll be back soon. In the meantime..."

It's time to name you Queen.

And if that's possible, I want Remy to get 'Fire Magic' and melt it down already. The person - the book ant - seems to be waiting to melt, but sometimes I can't help it, but honestly the room is getting hard to get cold.

"Queen, your name is [Sugar]"

No movement, but I found the queen nodded. "Sugar" is not an ant or a tin bee, but it is a word that is used to praise a woman's style when she looks at the thinness of her hips more than in ancient times. The queen deserves it. Rae has also been praised for her daughter and others who don't know how long she's been alive.

Children should not be praised in such a way as to require knowledge that is not common sense in the assumption.

Then let Remy get 'Fire Magic'.

"This is a skinless reward. Remy."

"This... magic? I have magic too..."

"Remy's job was wonderful. I learned magic because of it, so let's use it quickly."

Rae pulls Remy's hand and takes him to Sugar's front.

"Come on, use 'heating' well to melt the Sugar freeze for you. Be gentle at first."

"Magical Appropriateness: Fire" was also obtained at the same time, so I don't think I would treat it differently, but I instruct you to do it carefully just in case.

Remy began to 'heat' Sugar, fearful.

If this is going to work, let the ants in the hall melt in turn. While waiting for the MP to recover. But it should be faster than natural thawing.

"Ah, boss. Looks like Kelly and the others are back."

Looks like Remy caught the sound while 'heating'. I don't think I can hear the entrance square just from here, so maybe Kelly announced her return aloud.

"Remy, stay with me, stay with me about Sugar. I'll pick up Kelly and the others."

Rae crawled all over the narrow aisle and returned to the entrance square.

The entrance square was dismantling the prey that Kelly and the others had captured.

The prey was like Tanuki. Probably.

"This is again... big"

It is a tanuki the size of an earlier pig. How do these giant beasts usually live in this dense forest of trees? How large a forest this is, deeper but also with wide spacing of trees, does it mean that giant beasts are singing nature and that the dense areas of the trees are actually shallow areas of the forest? I think the opposite is normal.

"I'm home, boss. What do you say, big guy?

"Oh. This is great. Where did you hunt? Is it far from here?

As I listened, Rae had an idea of the approximate distance. Probably not that far.

"No, I stopped right there. I can't find a good prey. Looks like you finally found it and were coming this close while you were pushing it. It was over just now.... Have I kept you waiting?

Waving at Kelly to say I'm sorry to say so opens the Kelly's skills screen.

It was because of this screen that Rae realized earlier that the hunting ground might be close. At the time of logging in, Rare's experience of possession had not changed from before he logged out, despite the apparent completion of the skinned mesh.

But when I was watching the skills screen to get Remy's "Fire Magic," I suddenly got more experience. Perhaps that's when Kelly and the others tailored this Tanuki.

What I can tell from this is that the family can act independently even when the master, the player, is logged out, and their contents can be given instructions in advance. And that in the meantime the behavior is properly accompanied by results, but no experience is gained by it.

Perhaps you will lose the ability to gain experience on your own at the time of your family. You can instead receive experience points over your master, and the actions of your family belong to you as the achievement of your master. Therefore nobody gets EXP because there is no EXP receptacle while the master is logged out. The official bot dream crumbled here. No, I wasn't expecting anything like that.

But only gold measures are possible enough. Both Remy and Kelly are now achieving results that are likely to be gold enough.

Plus, if you give them time-consuming instructions while you log out and log in at a time that's likely to yield results, they're just sleeping and leveling up. Although there is no concept of level.

However, if you actually try to do that, you will need to make quite a few attempts to figure out how much time it will take for instructions on what to do. While you're doing that, you'd better make more efficient money.

The large number of dependents makes it a rarity that requires a large amount of experience. Really, not so much, but if it's possible, I'd like to gain experience efficiently.

"Kelly, this Tanuki deserves a reward enough. I saw Remy's smooth fur earlier, but it did a great job. That's why I rewarded Remy first, but I'll give you magical powers too."

Rae had Kelly get "Magic Proper" and "Thunderbolt" for "Thundermagic" and Riley get "Magic Proper" and "Water" and "Wash" and "Water Shoot" for "Water Magic".

"Oh... finally I have magic too..."

"Boss, boss, I've got a bunch of athletes, okay? This!

"Oh well, one is' washing '...... That's all there is to it. And to Marion."

Then let Marion get 'Ice Barrett'. Now if you give Remy a good reason later to get it even in "Flare Arrow," everyone will have some sort of magical offense.

"Thanks, boss! If this happens, I can win just me even if I fight the Queen of Ali again... maybe?

Sugar is just considerably better than Marion, but if we can get ahead of ourselves, it's not possible.

As it stands, Sugar has no means of ranged attack. Should I finally let Sugar get something when I let Remy get a 'flare arrow'?

But the Sugar build is not very suitable for direct combat. It is only her style to beat the ants under her command. Then it might be more effective to increase skills that would lead to enhanced distribution.

In any case, we still need some experience. When the ants are thawed, we'll talk to Sugar and work out a plan around it.

This cave must also be remodeled so that humans and ice wolves can be a little more comfortable, and speaking of which, I'd like to remind Kelly and the others to salute it.

What we do is pile up.
