MMORPG: Genesis Bandit

Bandit

"What white tiger?"

"Oh, right you wouldn't know, this bandit group is called 'The White Tigers' because apparently their boss loves white tigers and will do anything to get hold of them, the main unique quest for this dungeon is to kill the boss and save the white tiger before it dies." John explained.

"Dies?" Sarah and Vulxis said in horror.

"Shit that's not good bro." Jackalope suddenly said, alard.

"What?" John asked all three.

"White Tigers are a special existence in Genesis John." Vulxis started to explain before asking.

"What do you know about world bosses?"

"Not much, Elrinira is the only one I have t." John replied.

"What the fuck bro? You t Succubus Queen Elrinira and lived to tell the tail?" Jackalope asked in surprise."

"Yeah, why is she famous?" John asked back.

"Bro she's not just famous she is downright scary, the amount of people she has killed or slaughtered because they looked at her wrong or refused her is no joke."

"Really but I refused her?"

"You did? And you're still alive?" How?"

" and a friend helped save her dead sister who had been resurrected by a necromancer." John explained.

"Damn bro your hardcore, there are not many individuals who can co away from eting Elrinira alive." Jackalope said with respect.

John turned back to Sarah and Vulxis who were watching him speak with jackalope with strange gazes.

"Sorry about that." John apologized.

"Damn seeing you chat with animals like that makes hope I unlock that skill next." Vulxis said before continuing.

"Anyway, there are five world bosses in the mortal plane of Genesis that we exist on right now, at least that we know about, each continent has one of these five, and while there are other world bosses who do not exist on the mortal plane such as Elrinira I will only focus on one for this topic."

"The White Tiger of the West Bengal."

"The white tiger of the west, like most world bosses, just keeps to itself unless you anger or attack it; however it is known to be very protective of its own kind."

"The number of white tigers in Genesis is already ridiculously low and because of this Bengal protects his kind fiercely, if one is killed, he will hunt down the perpetrator and wipe them from existence along with anyone or anything protecting them."

"Don't take it lightly when I say wipe from existence as that's exactly one of the special abilities world bosses have, to wipe your character from Genesis so you have to start all over again."

"WHAT!" John said in shock.

"In the past there was a group of top-level players who attacked a world boss trying to kill it for the loot, in the end the world boss used its special ability of existence wipe."

"At first they thought it was just a normal death so after twenty-four hours they attempted to log back in, however they were unable to and when they asked Tia why she inford them that the existence wipe had erased their characters from Genesis, these top-level players were forced to start from the very beginning again and work their way back up, after that everyone knew never to ss with world bosses."

"That explains the ssage from the Quest Failure punishnt." John said.

"ssage?" Sarah asked.

"Yeah, it says, 'The White Tiger will die, and sothing far worse than the bandits will appear around Thathalas because of the white tiger's death killing many innocents and causing the city to go under martial law." John explained reading the ssage.

"Fuck." Sarah cursed.

"Fuck." Vulxis cursed

"Fuck." Jackrabbit cursed.

"John we cannot fail this dungeon run, if we do Thathalas will be in deep shit and will suffer heavily for it." Sarah warned.

"Do dungeon quests normally have such high stakes." John asked.

"No, it's strange, normally they might affect the surroundings slightly like having increased bandit or monster attacks, but I have never heard of a dungeon quest failure leading to a world boss rampage." Sarah said with confusion.

"If I had to guess it's because it involves white tigers, I highly doubt Bengal itself would turn up as the punishnt, I an this is only a rank one dungeon, the more likely event is that it will send one of its subordinates, another tiger." Sarah speculated after thinking for a mont.

"That's fine and all but can I suggest we don't fail the unique quest so we don't have to find out." Vulxis stated to which both Sarah and John nodded.

"Ok with that agreed on, John, are you going to make a bond with the Jackalope?" Vulxis asked excitedly.

"I don't see why not since it's what he wants right?" John asked the Jackalope.

"Damn straight bro, you need my aweso powers if you're going to save the white tiger as well as other animals here." Jackalope boasted making John and all the other animals roll their eyes.

"All right." John said as he went over to Jackalope's cage and unlocked it, letting the little guy jump out before stopping in front of John.

"Ok What's a good na for you?" John thought out loud as he tried to think of a good na.

"Make it a good one bro, worthy of my awesoness."

John thought for a mont before saying.

"I know, how about Bandit?"

"Why Bandit?" Jackalope asked while tilting its head.

"Because this is a bandit hideout that we t in and you're a bandit to all won everywhere." John said with a smirk.

"Ha, he got you their bro." Deer said laughing.

"Damn right, that na is perfect for you." Boar added as the other animals agreed and started to tease the Jackalope.

"Ha, I know you all are attempting to tease and make fun of but I happen to like the na." Jackalope proclaid before adding.

"I am a bandit all won should fear in-case I get my paws on them." Jackalope boasted, causing all the other animals to scoff him.

"Ok bandit it is then," John said before pricking his finger to make it bleed.

He then placed his bleeding finger on the Jackalopes forehead before speaking.

"lmë car si naxa san i lmë cé tulco máca exa sangiessemman, n essë le Bandit." (Translation: We form this bond so that we may support each other in our necessities, I na thee Bandit)

"WHAT THE FUCK." John shouted out loud.

"What's wrong?" Sarah asked.

"Did it fail?" Vulxis asked in disappointnt as she really wanted to witness a Wild Morph for the first ti.

"Can't be I can feel bro's soul connected to mind." Bandit spoke up.

John turned to look at the two girls with a worried expression before saying.

"I think I broke Genesis."

"Pardon?" Sarah replied as both girls looked confused.

"Well error ssages just started appearing on my screen." John replied.

"Error ssages, I have never heard of anyone ever receiving an error ssage, have you?" Vulxis asked as she turned to Sarah.

Sarah shook her head before saying.

"I have never heard of this ether, what did the ssages say?"

John did not reply and instead made the ssages visible before showing them to the two won.

As the two won read the notifications their faces started to turn more and more into shock before their mouths hung open.

In the hundred- and twelve-year history since Genesis launched this is the first ti a new stat was needed to be made.

Previously speed was never really an issue for players because most of the races all had roughly the sa run and reaction speeds in Genesis as they had in Atlantia, a number was never needed to quantify this and so it could not be improved.

Other stats such as strength were different because of how Tia designed the Genesis combat system, you could have an individual in Atlantia who could barely lift a rock with their strength, yet when they entered Genesis, their stat points allowed them to lift a boulder.

"WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!" Sarah suddenly scread in shock and anger.
