Beatbox 0 Posted October 3, 2016 #1 Share Posted October 3, 2016 (edited) Beatbox sighed, he really did not like this floor. All it was is just a barren wasteland and just full of sand, and nothing more. There was no scenery to see here, and he could only imagine how bad it would be to try to take a nap anywhere on this floor. However, he still had to explore this floor at least at some point. He roamed this floor seeing the town that was around here and he didn't like what he was seeing on this floor, it was pretty barren and empty and he hated it. The NPC's that lived on this floor were not the prettiest of all NPC's either, most of them look runned down and homeless, he shook his head and looked from side to side trying to see if there is anything that he could do. His familiar Ocarina was on his head looking around the area trying to see the area that was around him too, his fox didn't like this area either. "Hey, please can you help me!?" a mysterious woman NPC in a thick cloak said to Beatbox as he was taking a stroll around the area. Being the guy Beatbox is he stopped and looked at her and said "Help with what exactly?" Edited October 4, 2016 by Beatbox Link to post Share on other sites
Beatbox 0 Posted October 3, 2016 Author #2 Share Posted October 3, 2016 He inspected the lady that asked for Beatbox's help and she looked very run down, he could barely see her in the first place and he could BARELY understand her, but he was able to understand what she had to say. "Not long ago I was hired to bring a precious amount of cargo that I traveled with... however the sandstorm kicked up and I had to unfortunately leave it behind so I could get here... and here I am now talking to you, I need it in my possession in the next two days or it'll be lost or not be able to sell ever! It should be buried by now... but it should still be able to be found though... can you help me? I really need to rest..." she asked as a quest screen appeared in front of Beatbox. He thought about it for a moment, but he didn't have anything going on at the current moment... so he accepted the quest. "Sure I'll retrieve your cargo in no time at all, I'll be back soon." he said as he walked over to the area in question. "Oh... thank you! Thank you!" she said to him. He looked back and gave her a wave before he kept walking forward in the location in which she spoke. Link to post Share on other sites
Beatbox 0 Posted October 3, 2016 Author #3 Share Posted October 3, 2016 (edited) ID: 68966 CD: 9 / LD: 4 Beatbox had entered the desert in which the female figure had spoke of, and boy... the sand was kicking up pretty bad today... or its probably bad to begin with. Beatbox could barely breathe in this sort of area, Ocarina was fine, however it was rather hard for Beatboox to breathe, he felt like if he gets in the wrong area or if he stays in this area for long... he could potentially lose HP due to the situation of the desert. He kept an eye out around the area in which he could see to try to find the lost cargo... hopefully it wouldn't be too too hard to find, he is terrible at finding things, let alone materials. He sighed and continued pushing himself onward into the desert. The only thing redeemable about this quest is that he doesn't need to fight anything to find the cargo... at least that is going on for him.

Beatbox 0 Posted October 3, 2016 Author #4 Share Posted October 3, 2016 (edited) ID: 68967 CD: 10 / LD: 3 Beatbox had coughed while traveling through this Desert as a sandstorm had kicked up as he had entered and sand was being blown to the side from time to time very violently, sometimes the sand would get stuck in his throat and he would have to try to cough it out, however there is no downside from sand getting into your throat its just a minor inconvenience. He looked around to try to find the Cargo, however he didn't find the cargo this early. He figured he had to travel to the town fairly far otherwise this quest would be extremely easy for players to try to attempt. However, he still figured with the surroundings that was around him he figured it would be a little more easy than having to spend a lot of time trying to find the cargo as your walk through a sandstorm. However the struggle for SP was real. Edited October 3, 2016 by Beatbox Link to post Share on other sites
Beatbox 0 Posted October 3, 2016 Author #5 Share Posted October 3, 2016 (edited) ID: 68968 CD: 12 / LD: 1 Beatbox sighed, he hated this floor... it was nothing but sand. All that was around him other than sand was the occasional giant rock or cactus... and there was honestly nothing cool to be seen on this floor as scenery and nothing looked good in Beatbox's eyes... he was hoping to at least be seeing something cool on his way to the location to where to cargo is... however none of that happened and all he can see is just sand upon sand upon sand... such a wonderful sight. He looked around and he thought he found something but after blinking he lost what it was and couldn't find it again... he let out another sigh and said to himself quietly "Is this desert already playing and toying with my eyesight now? Jeez this is going to be another loooong day...", he kept moving forward with determination to find the lost cargo. Edited October 3, 2016 by Beatbox Link to post Share on other sites
Beatbox 0 Posted October 3, 2016 Author #6 Share Posted October 3, 2016 (edited) ID: 68970 CD: 6 / LD: 14 Beatbox had blinked a couple of times as sand got into his eyes and he started coughing out sand, Ocarina seemed to be fine and was rather found himself asleep on top of Beatbox's head "At least you're okay Ocarina..." he whispered to himself as continued into the desert with a grin. He looked around the area trying to find the lost cargo... yet he still hadn't found anything at the current moment. He sighed and realized that this quest is supposed to be hard and not be a quest to easily find right off the bat. However, it would help if he was a bit better at trying to find things entirely as he is terrible at finding these sorts of things let alone simple materials. He let out another hefty sigh and continued moving forward, he yawned and continued looking from side to side in attempts to try to find the lost cargo for the cloaked female back in town.

Beatbox 0 Posted October 3, 2016 Author #7 Share Posted October 3, 2016 (edited) ID: 68971 CD: 6 / LD: 6 Beatbox had kept looking and looking in the desert in which she had lost her cargo and all Beatbox had found at the current moment were nothing but sand, sand, and more sand. He sighed one more time and got a little frustrated already, sure he knew that this wasn't supposed to be easy to find... but still, he was terrible at finding things and this was no exception... he knew that he was going to be here for a long long time. He looked up to see what time of the day it was... and it looked like it was getting to be afternoon, however it wasn't noon yet so he continued moving forward without worries at the current moment. However Beatbox was already getting tired and he yawned, he got a little bit of sand in his mouth and he spit it out, he couldn't help but feeling tired... because y'know... he was doing absolutely nothing... which makes him very tired.

Beatbox 0 Posted October 3, 2016 Author #8 Share Posted October 3, 2016 (edited) ID: 68972 CD: 11 / LD: 18 Beatbox had kept walking into the desert as the desert kept raging on... sand kept getting into his eyes and throat... affecting his well being only a little bit. He looked around in the vision in which he could see and didn't realize that the cargo was literally right in front of him. He tripped over the cargo and fell onto the sand, Ocarina as he fell jumped off Beatbox's head onto the sand and as he fell face first into the sand. After getting himself back up from the sand he shook his head from side to side getting the sand of of his hair. And he looked behind him, and lone behold! The cargo was right there, some of it was visible as he tripped on it, but he had to start digging a little bit to get every piece of cargo along with him... "Well... I guess I gotta start digging..." he said to himself with a frown as he went over and started to gather all of the cargo. Edited October 3, 2016 by Beatbox Link to post Share on other sites
Beatbox 0 Posted October 3, 2016 Author #9 Share Posted October 3, 2016 (edited) ID: 68974 CD: 4 Beatbox had started digging at the sand trying to retrieve all the items from the cargo so he could drag it all the way back into town so he could be rewarded from the quest. Ocarina was helping him out in any way he could, digging at the sand with his tiny paws digging it out helping very slowly. Beatbox had gotten every item, every box piece by piece putting it in the cart the cargo used to be in slowly... piece by piece. He needed to hurry, he did not like being in this desert and he wanted to get out as soon as possible, and out of this floor as soon as he could, because he hated this floor with a burning passion. He shook his head and went back to digging out all of the items for the cargo, he wanted to make sure all of it was there that way he doesn't have to come all the way back just to get an item or two.

Beatbox 0 Posted October 3, 2016 Author #10 Share Posted October 3, 2016 (edited) ID: 68975 CD: 5 Beatbox had dug up probably the last item that he needed to put into the cart to bring back into the town in which he had met the cloaked figure, he did another quick look making sure that this was the last item that he needed and it looked like that was the last item, he grabbed a hold of the cart and started to push the cart all the way back into town, however it would take him a while. Ocarina jumped into the cart for cover and Beatbox let out a giggle "Glad at least you'll be safe Ocarina..." he said with a bit of sarcasm before looking back into the distance... all he saw was more and more sand... oh and did I mention sand? I think you get the point of Beatbox hating this floor, all it is... is SAND. Nothing, but sand... and that doesn't make great scenery.

Beatbox 0 Posted October 3, 2016 Author #11 Share Posted October 3, 2016 (edited) ID: 68976 CD: 8 Beatbox continued pushing this cart all the way back into town, it was honestly really hard to push it all the way back due to the sand hard to travel in... but he eventually made it all the way back into town. He made it all the way back to the cloaked lady in which she wrapped her arms around him "Thank you! Oh thank you!" she said before letting go. "I will always remember you player, catch you later!" she said before leaving with her cargo. A quest completion menu appeared in front of Beatbox, not only did it reward EXP... but it rewarded with an extra skill... Survival. He read the skill carefully and he smirked, this was a skill that he had needed desperately due to the fact that he is a damage dealer and this will be a skill that will help him out a lot.

Beatbox 0 Posted October 3, 2016 Author #12 Share Posted October 3, 2016 (edited) ID: 68978 BD: 4 / MD: 2 - 3 = Yeah, wont hit. Beatbox didn't know what to do at this point, there wasn't a location where he could go to to relax and there isn't any scenery at all in this floor what so ever... he figured... why not? Lets go fight a mob or two and call it good. He walked off into the distance to try to try to find a mob to take down, and it wasn't hard to find a mob and he lunged himself at the Giant Scorpion and initiating combat with it, however he got a little reckless and the scorpion moved out of the way of Beatbox's attack and tried to hit Beatbox with its giant stinger. Beatbox managed to move out of the way of its Giant Stinger and jump back onto his feet. He looked at the giant scorpion with a smirk and he prepared another attack on the giant scorpion in hopes to take it down.

Beatbox 0 Posted October 3, 2016 Author #13 Share Posted October 3, 2016 (edited) ID: 68979 BD: 8 / MD: 2 - 3 Still ain't hittin' The giant scorpion prepared it stinger and tried to strike against Beatbox and inject him with its poison, however Beatbox jumped out of the way and his sword glowed a bright white as he prepared a sword art. After a bit of waiting for just the right moment he lunged himself at the scorpion and performed a series of combos of hits that formed a shape of a star and did a decent amount of damage against the giant scorpion. He jumped out of the way of the giant scorpions attempt to strike against him again. He looked at the giant scorpion with a smirk and laughed "Struggling Scorp'? Well, there is a lot of those attacks comin' straight your way!" he said with a giggle as he prepared himself to attack the giant scorpion again. He thought to himself for a brief moment "Sigh... even though I can deal a lot of to damage to Mob's... I still feel so useless, I'm not joining them in the front lines and... well, I guess I am not being useful as I thought I was..."

Beatbox 0 Posted October 3, 2016 Author #14 Share Posted October 3, 2016 (edited) ID: 68981 BD: 6 / MD: 5 - 3 = 2 Beatbox shook off those thoughts and noticed that the giant scorpion was in the middle of attacking again, he quickly moved out of the way and took a deep breath, he figured that he really needs to stop thinking while in the middle of combat. He prepared his sword once more and prepared the same sword art he had used before... it glowed a bright white and he lunged forward onto the Giant Scorpion and performed the same form of combo's in the form of a star and he dealt a massive amounts of damage. He jumped back and looked at the giant scorpion and thought again about his situation on this game, not letting his eyes leaving the scorpion "I can't believe myself... here I am being useless to the front liners, I want to help them... I want to be within their group... I want to join them in the fray that they stand in... and fight along side with them... wont be able to do that if I keep thinking like this though..."

I'll be able to join the front lines at some point... I'll be able to fight along side those that fight in the boss floors and-" his thoughts were cut short as he was attacked by the giant scorpion. The scorpion struck him with its stinger and he felt the burn of his attack and poison... he looked at the scorpion with an angered look and prepared his sword and struck it in the pattern of a star, once more. He lunged himself back from the scorpion and looked at his health bar, he wasn't poisoned and his health didn't drop too too much, but the fact was he got mad not only at the scorpion but at himself due to the fact that he keeps thinking during combat, he noticed that the scorpions health was nearly almost depleted and he was angered, and he wants to see this scorpion fade away to nothing.

Now that the combat was over he figured he got really tired after trying to kill the giant scorpion earlier so he figured to head back to the floor teleporter and head on back to his store so that he could sleep. He yawned and thought that he could search for a bit of materials on his way back to the teleporter just in case if he could find anything on the way back.

Beatbox 0 Posted October 4, 2016 Author #17 Share Posted October 4, 2016 (edited) ID: 68985 LD: 14 Beatbox had started to walk back to the town and looked from side to side trying to find a material while on his way back home, he figured that it would be easier to find materials on this floor since... y'know its mostly sand. But somehow, he hadn't found any good materials while on his way back to the town... it wasn't odd since this is a desert, however he felt like you could have found a material like a hawk in this are because of the sand making it easier to see. However it looks like this wasn't the case. He thought to himself for a moment on what he thought about earlier... "what if I don't eventually join the front lines...? what will my purpose on this world would be...? there is always Alisa to keep me happy... but, I wouldn't be doing anything to help the players progress through the game..." he sighed as he really wanted to help out the players progress further in the game.

Beatbox 0 Posted October 4, 2016 Author #18 Share Posted October 4, 2016 (edited) ID: 68986 LD: 7 The desert around him didn't kick up a sandstorm, matter of fact it was rather quiet for a desert a least... but he didn't care at least it was better than getting sand stuck in his eyes, ears, and in his throat... because he did not like that one bit. He kept looking around for some materials, however he still hadn't found anything worth while so he had kept moving forward with a grin. His familiar was fast asleep on his head and had no worries in the world at the current moment. But Beatbox himself... was worried deeply that he wouldn't be able to join the front lines like he wants to be... he shook his head and thought to himself "What would I do in this case...? Would I help out beginner players...? Would I be just take the quests that are available as a substitute like I have been doing right now...?" as he thought about those thoughts he slowly frowned and became more and more sad. But he couldn't get rid of those thoughts that haunted his mind. Edited October 4, 2016 by Beatbox Link to post Share on other sites
Beatbox 0 Posted October 4, 2016 Author #19 Share Posted October 4, 2016 (edited) ID: 68987 LD: 1 As the thoughts tormented Beatbox as he kept progressing further and further back towards the town, he kept trying to shake off his thoughts and go back to looking for some materials. He thought he had found something that look decent enough to be a material... however when he picked it up... it turned into sand. This made Beatbox a little more mad than he already was and yelled out to the distance "REALLY GAME? YOU MAKE A FLOOR FULL OF SAND AND DECEIVE PLAYERS BY MAKING MATERIALS THAT'S JUST SAND?" he sighed and through the rest of the sand in his hand and kept moving forward back into the distance to the town, he was getting close... he could see it in the distance but he still had a bit to go... he could try to find a couple more times... if not, he wont find any, but it wouldn't bother him.

Beatbox 0 Posted October 4, 2016 Author #20 Share Posted October 4, 2016 (edited) ID: 68988 LD: 3 (Ah, oh well...) Beatbox had itched closer and closer to the town, but before hand he had kept looking for some materials... and however... he just couldn't find any! Which was rather strange to not find any materials on a floor like this, I mean... its just sand! But hey, he figured that not always will it be simple just to find some materials. He didn't really let it bother him since other things had been bothering him at the current moment. Mostly because... other things had been bothering him at the current moment. He shook his head in hopes to try to keep the thought out of his head because it had been bothering him for the past few days and it bugs him to no end. He just kept moving on forward and forward to the town that was getting extremely nearby. He would soon eventually get into the safe zone.
