The Ancients World

Chapter 61: Completing the story quest V

Now is the time most people get off for the night, but I don't need to get off anymore for sleep. I'll probably want to get off in a few hours to eat, but I can fully invest in Ancients World now that I don't need to get off to rest. I wonder how my old future would have turned out if I had a gaming pod like the one I have now, much wouldn't have changed giving it more thought. Thinking about how lucky I got with the world item really did change by life. It saved me from a fate that I never thought possible for me or my family.

The more I think about my old future the more upset I become. The one thing that I'm truly worried for this time around is my sister. Despite that our families money problems are gone she is still going to have a hard time. I don't see her meeting that man again with our new life, but I'd rather be prepared than unprepared. My sister may have done some bad things and made bad choices, but she is my flesh and blood. She was my first friend and enemy, I'll not fail her like I did before.

One way I can prevent that man from ever meeting her is having her distracted from acting. I'm sure that she is still going to try for that path, but if I can get her to jump on Ancients World just like mom and dad I know she will change what she wants to do for a living. She is the one who taught me about video games after all. She may not be that girl anymore, but I'm sure I can draw her out again.

Enough dwelling on my real world problems, games are meant to take you out of reality and enjoy yourself, not worry about your problems. I've been traveling at a good pace and haven't had any interruptions from monsters or players. I should arrive ahead of schedule and make it to the double dungeon. I look up as I run and see the beautiful night sky and realize just how great my shitty life turned out. You cant live in todays world without having problems, I used to have so many problems I felt like I was drowning. Now I feel like I'm free of the burdens that break normal people, knowledge truly is power. I wonder what the outlook for Ancients World looks like now that I have certainly changed things.

I know of locations, quests, and many other things. I also know that I have forever changed Ancients World in some way, and I'm afraid of the unknown. When I started I knew everything to make myself a success, now that things have changed and are changing I don't know what's going to happen. While deep in my thoughts I almost fail to listen to the world announcement that is going off. This is something that I was afraid might happen.

[World-wide Announcement: The orc army is calling arms to all oppressed non-humanoid creatures!! They wish for all beast races and non humanoids to band together to destroy their oppressors!]

[World-wide Announcement: The dark ones grow excited at the mention of mass chaos! The bloodshed spilled in the war will grant them more power!]

Seems humanity will have a war on its hand if their call to arms actually works. What truly worries me is the dark ones gaining power from this if it does happen. An announcement or event of this scale never happened before in my old future. So I have no answer to stop this if it does happen. The next announcement makes me unnerved.

[World-wide Announcement: If the orcs succeed in forming a joint effort against humanity and winning the would be war, the human race will suffer greatly and Ancients World will end! All males of the human race will be extinguished and the females will be used as cattle for reproduction of monster offspring!]

An event that can end Ancients World, I'm sure the forums are blowing up right now and I can sympathize. Many have already declared this game is something the world cant live without, if its destroyed many will lose everything. I'm deeply disturbed by the result the orcs have chosen, and I'm the one to blame. As I am now I cant stop an army, and I doubt players and NPC combined are capable of defending against genocide of this magnitude.

Ancients World is truly brutal in its treatment of it native occupants. If Ancients World does end we all log off and go on with our lives, the people of Ancients World will endure something I cant even imagine. The stronger I get the better chance I have of stopping this, and I wont ever fail again. I wont be a pathetic man that could have done something and didn't. In my determination I get a quest notification.

[A miracle in you....]

[Description: ???]

[Objective 1: Reach level 150 tier 3 before any other player.]

[Objective 2: ???]

[Rewards: ???]

[Difficulty: ???]

[???: You haven't even scratched the surface of your power and once you reach this level of strength there will be a change that occurs in you and only at this point will you begin to taste your power. Do not let this world fall to ruin.]

[You have no choice but to accept this quest.]

I've never seen a quest like this before. Everything is hidden except for the first objective, and you don't get quests without picking up information or talking to an NPC. This isn't a function that exists within the system and if it did players would have said something a long time ago in my old future. Its possible that it did occur, but no one said anything because it was to rare. It doesn't have a time limit which is good, but I can deduce that war is coming. I'm sure the elves, fairies, and other humanoid creatures are already preparing for meetings with the church. This war will be on a bigger scale than ever seen before in Ancients World.

I'm getting closer to the dungeon by the minute so I should focus on that, I know everything I need to know about this dungeon. However, that doesn't mean something bad could happen. My cooldowns have reset on my strongest skills so if I need them I can use them. The curse of decomposition is an amazing DOT, if the health is as low as they say on the first boss then that will be enough. The second boss is the one I got to worry about. As Cera is preparing for his fight in the dungeon Creatureman and Ghostzero are in a secret meeting.

The success of the heist was truly something that this organization needed, now that we have the funds we don't need to worry about bankruptcy. I'm sure Ghostzero and the other members are all glad that our plans are working without any hiccups. However, the churches announcement made me very worried. We may not live long enough to see the spoils of our hard work. I look over to Ghostzero and see that he is as worried as I am. "I know what your thinking and I want to as much as you do, but we aren't welcomed till that old man dies. Once we have the means to free them all, we will." I miss her just as much as Ghostzero does.

The woman practically raised us and set us free at the cost of her own freedom. "Do you think we are strong enough to kill that son of a bitch?" Ghostzero brings up a good point, we both have legacy classes now and we might have a good shot at defeating him. I just don't want to risk madam Zelly's safety with rash actions, the good woman doesn't deserve that after everything she did for us. Clintock is a very powerful archer with a legacy class, he was much stronger than us or anyone nearby growing up. Now that we have our own legacy classes we can surely take him on and free Zelly of her suffering.

Many things are changing in Ancients Worlds and everyone is unprepared. Cera is given a new quest after the dark world announcements, and many of the player base is distraught with grief at the idea of losing the most wonderful experience the world has to offer. The NPC's of Ancients World are also having to change their plans with the upcoming threat. Ghostzero and Creatureman have to attack Clintock and free Zelly before they planned to so she doesn't succumb to this new threat. There are many things at work here, and all are blind to it.
