Vorpal Rabbit and Fortress Uncle
Episode 67: The News of War
Looking through the doors of the new heavens and earth, Letty already had all the familiar faces.
They noticed me and raised their hands as they approached the table with their tingling redhead ears as a landmark.
Good morning, Mr. Reggie.
"Hi, Reggie.... it looks like you're all set."
"Ha ha. Reggie is the last one."
"Oh, good morning. The whole town was a little crowded today, and it took me a while to get here."
Letty leaves her seat and slaps her next door.
Thank you for lowering your hips and ordering a drink for now.
Well, it starts at 12: 00 today.
"If it's the first event, everyone's mood and expectations will increase."
"Letty and the others are getting ready for the day!
Yes, today is the start date of the long-awaited first event, the "Special Exploration Command; Dawn's Invasion".
Approximately all players were preparing for the day by defeating bosses, collecting source stones, and building new weapons and armor.
The vibrancy of the town is growing every day, and the wave is now reaching its peak.
"Did Letty finish the weapon?"
"Yes, but it's still hard to handle."
We didn't leak another example, and we were counting today's party.
Each was independently self-reinforcing, but it was implicitly agreed that it would be presented at that moment on the day.
In the case of Letty, it would be an improved version of the explosion hammer the other day.
Neva and I seemed to have had a rather intense discussion, and we were occasionally asked to give our opinion.
Since the finished form has not yet been shown, it is very exciting.
"How's Lacto and Amy?
"Fufufufu. I've actually upgraded a lot."
Lacto laughs invincibly.
I've been working really hard on collecting art chips.
"Letty's been on a mission with me several times."
"Hey, everybody saved me. Thanks to you, the variation of art has also expanded.... but that's not all."
She laughs, leaving meaningful words and having fun afterwards.
"I've been working really hard for the last two weeks. I was able to collect the source stones and five after all."
"Amy was sparring her boss, wasn't she? Your skills are getting better, right?
"Yeah, thanks. It's not a detailed personality, so I've been able to do what I can."
You can count on it, and Amy closes her eyes towards Letty.
This event is a defensive battle against the protozoans invading Susano.
It would be the most glorious occasion for her to be the throne of the party as a tank.
"So, what was Reggie training?
"That's right. You're the most mysterious person I've ever met when I was logged in."
"The three of you have been gossiping a lot.
The eyes of the three were turned at once, and I suddenly turned back.
Ever since I hunted in the jungle with the twins of Toka and Mikage, I've been training in secret by myself.
Sometimes I wanted to surprise Letty on the day of the event, and I kept it a secret.
I logged in early this morning, but it took me a little time to get to the last crowd and I was a little late for the meeting.
"So-so. We'll find out soon enough."
"Mmm, I don't think that's a good idea."
You can give me a hint.
I put my mouth on the coffee, avoiding the pursuit of the girls who said boo-boo with their lips peeled.
"But I'm a little worried that this is the first time there's almost nothing in advance of the event."
"Mm, you've distracted me.
"So-so. Certainly, there's hardly anything more public than an advance notice."
Letty with her eyebrows closed, and Amy gets on with the story.
She's right, she hasn't given us enough information to say anything other than the name and brief summary of the event.
Mysteries were called mysteries. Discussions and conjectures flourished on the bulletin board every day. Discussion groups such as Length, validation teams, and offensive teams exchanged opinions and knowledge.
But what is certain at this point is “a defensive battle from the protozoa that invades Susano."
It's all unclear what will appear, where it will come from, how many will push it, and how long it will last.
Honestly, there were many opinions that the explanation was too short, and some people expressed anger that they would not have participated unless it was the first event.
"Letty would be glad to have quite a few enemies. It seems like an unparalleled system, and it seems fun."
"Am I happier to have a boss class? Isn't it worth it?
"Either way, I like the tank to shine."
"Isn't that more than a defense fight inevitable...?
Anyway, I don't know anything now.
We can only wait for the signal to start the event, which will be announced just at 12: 00.
"Oh, this is amazing."
Letty, who was watching the bulletin board, shouted as she was waiting for the time to bloom into the chat.
Faced with something, she shared the display and opened it in the middle of the table.
"It seems the Damascus Union has created a barricade that surrounds Susano."
"Damascus Union? Barricade?"
Looking at me with many questions, she raised her eyebrows with an exaggerated sigh.
"Mr. Reggie, are you sure you're watching the bulletin board?
"A few niches."
She drops her shoulders shudderly in response to my reply.
Was it so common sense that it was discouraging?
"The Damascus Union is a gathering of producer players. I'm wearing a matching bracelet, so I'll know soon enough."
Oh, is there such a thing?
"It's not a systematically guaranteed gathering."
The more lact you add, the more gavel you depress.
FrontierPlanet has not implemented a system for gathering players like guilds in other games so far.
The Damascus Union is a voluntary gathering of players.
"It seems like a group that exchanges information between producers, collaborates on recipes, accommodates materials, facilitates production requests from fighters, and so on."
"Heh. I didn't know it was Neva's production."
"Neither do we, but it's still famous enough to hear rumors of the wind.
I knew very well that it was famous enough for the three of us to react like that.
From now on, it may be better to keep an eye on large threads.
"So the damascus union set up a barricade?
"Yes, it looks like carpenters and blacksmiths have been mobilized to gather a lot of materials to build it. SS is on it, but it's quite spectacular."
That's what Letty showed on the display was a splendid wooden wall across the Beginning Grasslands.
It consists of walls stamped with equally spaced bars and metal plates connecting them, with armed players lined up nearby.
"This is a monstrous thing."
"Oh, my God, this is my first online game event. The people in the production profession must be struggling."
I could have predicted that fighters would be the main players in defensive combat alone, but the players who aspired to the production career were also exploring what they could do.
A glimpse of their passion makes me unexpectedly hot.
"Ah, it's time."
A few seconds after Amy said that, it's finally time.
At that moment, a loud audible alarm echoed all over Susano.
"Yikes!?
"Wow, suddenly!
The sensitive lettuce of your hearing jumps up and Lacto leaks her voice pleasantly.
A shadow of players rushing across the streets outside the new heavens and earth appeared through the window.
An emergency has occurred. Fighters, gather in front of Seed 01 - Susano North Gate as soon as possible. "
Inorganic synthetic audio streams from speakers located throughout the town.
Listening to it repeatedly, we looked each other in the face.
Here we go.
Yes!
Good luck.
You're having fun now.
We took our seats and ran along with the other guests on our way to the exit.
