fortunately the salary is enough to pay for all iou's. now my only problem is how to return to the city without getting killed.
all i have are potions and the basic items i got after choosing to become an archer. im still safe for the next two days but when the hidden npc leaves this place will stop being a safe zone.
there are a few bonuses given for certain achievements. and the easiest to obtain is for a newbie to survive for ten days in game without dying once. the reward is 1 gold coin and a random pet. since i played for three days before my drinking spree, i still need to stay safe for seven days. i can stay in this safe zone for two more days. that means i have to keep myself alive for five days. whats unfortunate is that im deep within the wolves area whose average level is 8-10. while im still level 1.
"congratulations to alex-the-savage for being the first to kill the newbie village ice wolf."
.....
a few other server announcements made me remember my current situation. alex-the-savage killed the ice wolf easily. its a super boss whose level is 25. he definitely took advantage of a bug to kill it. but how did he manage to do it? it was announced on the news that beta testers were followed by dedicated a.i. who recorded everything. i think alex-the-savage is the same alex that received my email.
"friend would be interested in trading" a level 8 swordsman spoke, startling me.
"what do you have in mind?"
"youre obviously met a hidden npc merchant because the wolves arent attacking you. why dont you tell us what unique items he is selling, purchase it then we will buy it for you for three times the price." said the swordsman while trying to hide the greed in his eyes.
its obvious what they want. as soon as the hidden npc merchant leaves they can attack me and simply pick up the items i drop. everybody knows that a hidden npc merchant only makes deals with the first person it sees and then leaves to another place. they want me to buy unique items from the merchant because they have a 100% drop rate.
"i dont have any coins right now. i used it all up to buy potions. if you give me 5 gold coins ill buy the lucky chest then trade it for 15 gold coins. what do you think?" of course i dont plan to give them anything. ive already bought the lucky chest and it gave me to growing type arrows. the chest may drop if its unopened but once opened the items will only have a 5% chance of dropping.
"okey. but you have to sign a system contract." the swordsman spoke while fighting some wolves.
the system contract is a new feature of the game. with the system contract in place no one will back out. the simplest punishment would be ban from entering the game for a month. while the worst ban from entering the game. in the future when governments sign moa with the game, it will be possible to take all of your possessions. right now only america and russia have signed moa with the game '26 worlds'.
ive no intention of giving them anything nor signing any contract. but im only a lowly level 1 while their groups lowest leveled member is level 7. how can i fight them?
hidden merchant npc's has few perks. first one can buy unique item or chest that gives random item. its also a safe zone. what i really like is that you can still attack monsters while inside the safe zone. so i picked up my bow and shot some arrows into the wolves that the swordsmans group are fighting.
level 8 wolves are pretty strong. while they deal 50-70 damages all i can deal are 1-2 damage. and thats due to a damage increase potion.
since im level 1 if i manage to steal a kill then ill be back to level 0. that would make all monsters, except slimes, avoid me. its part of the game experience. level zero would be able to tour the gaming world without being attacked by monsters and humans. though slimes would hunt them down. one needs to buy a special medal to be free from slimes attack. and this special medal expires after a certain period of time. this way people who just wanted to enjoy another world wouldnt be affected by pk and monsters and they wouldnt have to pay any guild. they have to pay for the special medals.
since im the only one who can return back to level zero then im the only one who can take advantage of this. as for slimes, although they have an endless supply of slime near newbie villages theres no slime in other areas. the wolves would certainly kill any other monster or human it encounters. slimes wont survive against a wolf.
i dont really want or need to remember the names of the people who is waiting for the npc to leave so that they can kill me. after leaving this place the chances of me meeting them again are pretty low. although i dont like how hard they are laughing as they watch me attack the wolves and deal the lowest damage. i used the remaining damage increase potions and kept shooting the wolves.
i still have a few coins which i used to buy arrows. then i tried to kill a wolf the swordsman group are fighting. a few minutes before the npc leaves i was able to kill one wolf.
"you have killed one wolf. 1500 experience gained. 4 silver coins obtained.
penalty activated. your level drops by 1.
you are now level 0.
monsters wont attack you.
beware of slime."
