Fattening Corpse's Weed Eater

[orokamononya]

[Anyone who decides to go to this cave? May end up finding one very frustrated student council member. Never mind that he's lost, he's been ending up with random enemy encounters, enough to tire him out faster than he liked. That, and no matter how many times he uses Tsubaki explosion, for some reason it never seems as strong as he remembered.

And who the hell designed this place?!]

Just where is the exit of this place?!

[OOC: Sob I hope I am doing this right.]

It functions exactly like an online game, besides the fact that it seems to pull people from-- [...Argh, she still can't say it that casually.] ...From different worlds.

[orokamononya]

Considering there's no intention on letting us go back, then you could say it follows a different set of rules. I wouldn't be surprised if that was the intention of these fools.

[tank_sniper]

If the rule says we aren't allowed to get out, then why would they bother to leave in an option to log out?

I think if there's a way out, it will probably be tied to an event. Not just finding the log out button, but achieving some kind of goal.

[orokamononya]

On that same note, why would they make an event with that option with that rule in place? I think carelessness would be more plausible, and they could have overlooked an area that could potentially lead people out of here.

[tank_sniper]

If they did, it would have to be a very obscure area. One nobody thinks to visit.

[...Though she does at least seem to be considering his words now.]

[orokamononya]

That would take a lot of trial and error given the number of choices. [...] Anyway, we should try to get moving again. If we stay here any longer, we'd be subject to an ambush.

[tank_sniper]

[Fair enough. She'll give a nod and start heading in the direction she believes the Beast Statue to be.]

At this point it would be faster to just complete the area.

[orokamononya]

[...?] How would that make it faster? [But following nonetheless.]

[tank_sniper]

This is deep into the dungeon, isn't it? So if we just get to the end, we can warp directly back to town.

[orokamononya]

I see. Well, putting it that way that makes perfect sense.

What are we going to look for exactly for that to happen?

[tank_sniper]

There should be a large statue with a treasure chest in front of it. It's very noticeable.

[Walking along looking fairly casual besides the constant glancing around in case they should come across some more enemies.]

[orokamononya]

A treasure chest in front of it?

Well, a statue shouldn't be too hard to locate, at least.

[tank_sniper]

It's the prize for completing the dungeon. Usually it's something a little rarer than the other treasure box items. Although it's still up to luck whether or not you get an item you can use.

[orokamononya]

If it's not usable, then there's always the option of just selling it. Either way, it would be valuable in some form.

It's still strange to think they would leave a prize to be found so easily.

[tank_sniper]

Even if you sell it, if you're looking for the best equipment, it will be hard to find a place to purchase it. And even if you do, you would probably have to sell a lot of items or find something equally rare that you could use to trade.

Isn't that normal for games? You get a reward for reaching the end of a stage.

[Or... something. She's not actually that familiar with games whoops.]

[orokamononya]

So weapons are even harder to purchase here? That sounds pretty tedious just for a new one.

[He shakes his head at that.] MonFan didn't have such a system. [Sadly, his knowledge of games is limited to that.]

[tank_sniper]

It's easy to find common weapons, but rare ones will usually yield better results in the long run.

What's MonFan?

[orokamononya]

Do you only find them through buying and selling here then?

It's a videogame I played with Fujisaki. It's very realistic too. [Well, realistic enough for a guy who has never played a video game in his life.]

[tank_sniper]

It's difficult, but possible to find rare items on your own. It all depends on your luck at getting the rare drops from monsters or treasure chests.

What kind of a game was it?

[orokamononya]

So that's really a feature here...

We were on a quest to save the world, I suppose the mechanics are fairly similar to this one.

[tank_sniper]

A quest to save the world? That's a typical story line.

[orokamononya]

I-it can't be helped! It was the first game I have ever tried.

[tank_sniper]

Was it a fantasy game, then?

[orokamononya]

Yes. [He nods at that.] A multi-player fantasy game.

[tank_sniper]

Multi-player, but not an MMO?
