Outbreak Chronicles: Dead Pandemic

Chapter 332 - Dead dupe 1
I am so disappointed by the decision of my parents but I have no choice since they have already decided to do it. Looking at my Reality Verse Nexus, I have trouble on hiding it. It is already attached on my room and it is big that nobody can miss it. Suddenly, I remembered one of the feature of the Reality Verse Nexus!

The Camouflage option! Its a very awesome option that makes the Reality Verse Nexus blend on its surroundings. To people who have the Reality Verse Nexus, hiding it in public is the main priority. I remembered that it is one of its features.

Since Father is going home, and he don’t even know that I have owned a Reality Verse Nexus, I have to hide it. Also, if the future tenants saw the differences of a normal one and a Nexus version, I am breaking the contract of that old man.

I checked the Game cabin and I didn’t have to work too hard to find it. It was located in the upper side of the power switch.

Zzzzzzzzzzz

The Reality Verse Nexus shook a bit before its exterior blended in my room. You really can’t see it unless you double check. I nodded in satisfaction. I have no more problem hiding it. Since I still have a quest for Almira, I have to return to the game.

After eating the soggy instant noodles, I returned to the game and reappeared on my room in the inn.

The Alchemy Table is still there and some mess are still scattered on the area. This game follows the reality system so naturally, the mess around won’t disappear. You naturally need to clean it yourself if you made a mess. I put the Alchemy Table back to my inventory and grab the broom and dustpan and began on cleaning the mess I made after the explosions of the flame boulders.

It took me twenty minutes to fully clean the place. I can’t rely on Lily to clean the place. Even NPCs has a bottomline on the actions every player do. Ignoring it faces the wrath of them. After throwing away the trash, I leave the in once again and still cloaked with the mask and cape. I am no longer afraid of being seen by Harmless Sparrow and her gang as I am going to eliminate anyone blocking my way. Luckily, they are not in the inn, maybe they are out hunting since it is morning in the game.

I ordered another special from Lily’s menu and began filling my virtual stomach with food. After the breakfast, I rush towards the Blacksmith where Almira is working.

”You keep on making me wait! I waited for the flame Rocks to arrive but you did not appear for quite a while!” Almira pouted.

Its true that they are NPCs but they can get upset if you don’t finish their quest immediately especially if its really urgent. Almira is upset for a bit.

”Sorry, I am caught up with the situation of the escape of the last boss in the Lesser Purgatory. I have to take care of it for a bit to safely gather the materials,” I explained.

”Hmph, luckily for you, you still have the time to deliver it, okay bring out the flame rocks,” Almira said, still pouting.

I laughed wryly before I pull out the stacks of Flame Rocks in my inventory. I can see the expression of Almira slowly changing as I pull out a lot of Flame Rocks without stopping. Stacks of items only have 50 pieces per stack so having more than 300 pieces means a lot of stacks.

Soon, the flame rocks on the floor is already overflowing and already formed a small mountain. 300 in total. I did not put out the remaining Flame Rocks as I have to sell it for money. 300 pieces is all I need.

”Holy moly! This is insane! You brought me too much supply that I think I won’t be having much problem on fetching Flame Rocks for quite a while! I underestimated you!” Almira shook her head in resignation. She thought I slacked? I have not as I have spent a few times being exposed to danger fighting those Elite Flame Sprites and to the countless explosions that occurred by processing the Flame Boulders.

She examined the Flame Rocks and nodded with a satisfactory expression on her face.

”No doubt, you didn’t mix a normal rocks on this pile. These are all authentic Flame Rocks!” She holds one of the rocks on her hands.

”I don’t lie on transactions,” I said. Of course you can’t. You cannot complete the quest if you didn’t bring the true item that an NPC need!

”Since you brought too much from my expected amount that you will bring, I will give you a chance to get a weapon I specifically forged!”

She led me deep into the forgery area. There, different weapons are all glittering in the area. I was amazed by the interior of the forge. In the past, I have no chance to get inside the legendary forgery of Almira. Though she is not the only one blacksmith in the area, she is one of the famous blacksmiths in the Holy Capital and also, it is quite rare for a blacksmith to be a woman.

Almira showed me the weapons that are all on the table.

”I know that these swords can’t compare to your own weapon, but these weapons are not an ordinary weapons also. I shall add a secret to you, these weapons has the ability for you to dual wield,” Almira whispered.

Wow! Dual Wield ability! This ability can only be done by Warrior, Samurai, and Magic Knight. The exceptions are the Gunslingers, Assassins and Ninjas who can already do a dual wield. Also, this ability is one of the rarest ability you can get in a weapon. Having a dual wield ability is like Kirito in Sword Art Online which is a fab in the past when online games are on boom.

Now that I think about it, when I was still a Magic Knight, I also got the ability to dual wield and it was really awesome to feel. Just that I really need a few bucks of money that I have sold the weapon with the ability to dual wield, since then, I no longer have obtained a weapon with that skill. Now, I saw a few nice looking swords. From what I can tell, they are not yet on weapon catalogue. They might be unique weapons.

Unique Weapons are known also as Customized Weapons. They are not dropped by monsters, they are made by players or NPCs. Unlike normal weapons, they posses quite a good amount of stats, and they also possess unique skills that are usually very rare for normal weapons to possess. Of course, making one needs proficient level on Blacksmithing and an NPC should possess an Average or higher level to make a customized weapon.

I picked up a black plated sword that looks like it was a dagger, only it has a long blade.

”Dragon Teeth Blade”

Rarity: Unique

ATK: 497

DEX: 436

AGI: 125

Can be equipped by: Swordsman, Magic Knights, Assassins, Ninja, and Versatile

1. Dual Wield - Ability to wield another weapon of your choice alongside with this weapon.

2.Dark Requiem Poison - Chance to inflict Heavy Poison damage to target. Can even cause Poison damage to those targets that are naturally resistant to poison.

Description:

A sword made from the fang of the once almighty black dragon that died after its old age has taken a toll on its body. Made by one of the talented Blacksmiths in Holy Capital, Almira.

This weapon has an astronomical amount of stat. It even surpass the power of the Versatile Weapon for now. However, I still cannot equip this sword as I still needed to get a class up and needed to be at level 100. Though it won’t be long before I level up to that point, this sword will just stay in my inventory for now.

”Do you want that sword?” Almira asked, her eyebrows raised.

”Mhm. It looks awesome and it feels powerful,” I said truthfully.

”Wow, you have good eyes, its one of the swords I made to be in a highest quality, alright, that is yours now,” Almira nodded.

A notification appeared.

”Quest Complete!”

So the reward is this, I never expected it. Since I have a class up weapon now, I don’t need to worry on my class up weapon which will be accessed at level 60.

”Since you made me impressed, I want to give you a work. Here read this, since I am busy, I cannot explain the circ.u.mstances. I know you are strong so I am not worried,” Almira said.

As I hold the paper, the quest panel popped up for me to accept

Almira’s Request

Hidden Quest

Description: Read the letter that Almira has given to you.

Yes, at long last, a hidden quest was successfully triggered by me!
