Lucan spent 2 in ga months fighting in the goblin planes. He had set up a temporary base with formations that had begun to expand over ti. He added more and more formations over a larger area. Lucan woke from his sleep in the formation. 40 other people were sleeping, and a few were moving around the hidden tent city. From the outside, everything in the formation was invisible, strong charms made it hard for soone to stay near for too long. Telekinetic walls and dense shadow magic made it a completely detached from the outside world. Hellfire and Lisel's followers treated it as an oasis in the Goblin Planes.
The players had even set up a tent to store food, rations, and bandages in large supply for whoever needed to stop by. It wasn't long after that, a player with the blacksmith profession set up a tent and would spend half his day repairing gear and weapons while he would use the other half to level in the plains.
An alchemist showed up, and then a couple players put the chef skills to use, before long everyone was using their professions to improve the tent city. Lucan didn't mind, having supplies closer ant he could level longer, and there were always players nearby if things got out of hand.
'Hey Lucan, I finished my class advancent and am on my way to Shadowsweep. Do you have ti to et up?'
Silent had just reached out to Lucan. He was happy to hear her voice.
'I will be in Shadowsweep in 15.' He replied imdiately.
"See ya, I gotta go." Lucan said to the people inside the formation as he hoped on his broom and shot towards the horizon.
Lucan flew to the exit of the battleground and made his way out of Raze's palace and to the transfer point. He walked to his ho to wait for her. He was surprised to see her already sitting on his porch.
"Lucan." She said jumping up. "Your 5 minutes early."
"I didn't expect you to be here already either."
"I'm sorry about everything I said before." She said while staring at the ground. "I didn't an what I said."
"Why don't we forget about what we both said, neither of us ant it. Right?" Lucan asked hesitantly.
Silent finally looked at him. "Lucan, I want to make a new pact with you." She explained before he could ask. "If you agree to trust , I will trust you. I like leveling with you, I don't want to fight over stupid things that don't matter. I will watch your back and protect you, if you promise to do the sa for ."
Lucan smiled. "I can promise that." He said reaching out his hand to shake on it.
Silent pushed aside his hand and kissed him on the cheek while activating pact magic. "Good, I have to log out for today. Bye." She said before vanishing.
Lucan stood rooted to the ground. His smiled had been etched onto his face as he held his hand over his cheek.
He heard a rustle on the edge of the street. Eventually Lucan turned to see Oar hiding behind so bushes trying to hold in his laughter.
"What's so funny?" Lucan asked.
"Ah, Boss, nothing. HA, ha, ha, it's just that I started thinking about Ha, Ha, ha, you will be like The King of the Shadow Elves in a year or two. Ha, ha, ha."
"Hey, punk you think your funny. Renia tells you think you are getting strong. Challenging the guards during training. Co on then, want to spar with ?"
"Hey, Boss, it's just a joke. I don't want to spar."
"What, co on. Weren't you calling your self top dog of the ring yesterday? Show what you got Top Dog."
"Oh, what, Alasan needs help with errands. COMING!" Oar shout before running down the street. "Sorry Boss, work before play."
The villagers chuckled to themselves as the young steward ran from his Lord. They were pleased to see both Lucan and Oar in a good mood.
Lucan decided to log out early and call it a day.
Brax got out of bed excited and full of energy. He was back in good standings with Silent and she had even given him a kiss on the cheek. As embarrassing as it was, there were several fist pumps and victory laps around his apartnt before he used the bathroom and got ready for the day.
*DING DONG*
Brax put his plate from breakfast into the sink and answered the door.
"I'm here to install your Oasis 2000 Luxury ga capsule."
"Right this way." Brax said showing him to the empty room that was going to beco his gaming station.
The instillation guy brought in the capsule and got to work. Super had inford Lucan last week that pretty much every player over level 150 was bringing serious money just from monster drops. There were people who played the ga as 'Gold Farrs'. These people's jobs were to earn gold and sell it, sotis in the free market, but mostly they would sell it privately to large corporations that had begun to infiltrate the gas economy.
These Gold Farrs would start becoming hirer level in a couple of months. Once a good portion of them crossed level 150 the price of gold would begin to drop. Over the past 2 months in ga Lucan had slowly cashed out over half a million in gold. Right now, the price was at 79.3 USD to 1 GP, but super expected the bubble to pop anyti in the next couple of months. Lucan kept 200,000 GP in the bank for the village and decided to sell everything else until the bubble popped.
He would stop at 75 USD to 1 GP. Super expected the exchange rate to drop to 60 USD before it stabilized again, but it was possible it could drop even more.
As the Oasis instillation guy was working Lucan brought in his new top of the line computer. The computer was hooked up to the ga capsule allowing Lucan to access it while in the ga.
4 hours later and Brax gave the installer a tip on his way out. When he was alone in his apartnt, he began to set the preferences on the capsule and signed in his character to Evolution so he would be ready to play when the ti ca.
Since Brax wanted nothing more than to use his new capsule and play with Silent, the clock betrayed him and began to tick backwards as the day dragged on. Brax endured the slowest day evert to exist. There wasn't a single interesting thing on the internet or the television, nothing would distract him.
*Ding*
The ga capsule had recovered his character completely. Lucan shook his head angrily, it had only been 30 minutes since the Oasis guy left.
He sighed and then noticed a new popup on his computer screen.
"Holy Crap."
He could see Lucan's inventory in the ga. He clicked on a book. It opened, allowing him to read it on his computer. Lucan smiled; he should be able to keep himself entertained until he could play the ga again.
It wasn't long before he figured out how to connect his phone to his new computer. Now he could read on his phone. Formations are great, but the prep work and study was enormous, the materials were also ridiculous. Its definitely a rich man's profession.
