[PP-NK-F11] Lost in the Labyrinth


Recommended Posts

"Ugh," Teion muttered in mild disgust. The battle continued as Beat, Shield, and Soredell drained the swarms' health bars, though the martial artist had the only multi-target damage among them. The blacksmith frowned. These targets were much more annoying--not to mention unnerving--than the humanoid ant soldiers they had faced not long ago. These masses of ants felt more real, causing a chill to run down Teion's spine as she watched the ants try to reform after being cut down by Soredell's katana.

She clenched her teeth at Shield's call. She knew she had strong AoE damage, but the accuracy buffs her hairpin provided her were proving to just not be quite enough. As she brought up her weapon, the blacksmith attempted to activate her AoE sword art once more only to receive an unpleasant surprise. After the first wide swing of her axe, Teion realized too late that she had over-shot. Her blade passed through the swarms of ants before cleaving into a stalagmite. The rock formation crumbled before the game registered its destruction and caused it to burst into light. Teion let out a low growl as the blue glow of her axe faded out.

Beat looked to Teion, who seemed just as unhappy with the nature of their opponents as he was. That fact made him feel a little less embarrassed for having such a distaste for the creatures, "Good to know I'm not the only one who thinks these things are disgusting. All the more reason to beat them as quickly as we can right?" 

Beat took off towards the amorphous collection of ants, leaping high into the air and spinning rapidly once he was positioned above them. With his damage increases, the force behind his technique easily created another twister which seemed extra effective against the swarms, scattering them to a fraction of their previous size, the individual ants that were separated turning into red pixels. 

"Alright! Almost there!" He cheered, making sure to land away from the ants. While the majority of them were focused on maintaining formation and attacking the party's tank, there were a large number scurrying around on the ground, having no qualms about crawling onto the players.

Soredell watched as the next few attacks from the others continued to weaken the Hatchling Swarms, bringing their HP gauge into the red. He watched as one of the four swarms was struck one final time, exploding into a hail of pixels, the ants making up the swarm turning blue before rising up an disappearing for good. He sees the second swarm is close to death, and he estimates that one more hit from him will be enough to secure a kill. Forgetting about his fear, thinking only of killing the beast and acquiring the possible loot it could drop, he charges at the ant. As he draws near, he activates his Sword Art Gen Getsu, slicing the swarm up and jumps back. He watches as the red bar slowly makes its way to the other side, before it disappears, the swarm exploding into a familiar cloud of blue and white. "YES! I GOT A KILL!" he cheers. At this point, he doesn't care about the fact that they're still in combat, he's just happy to have gotten a kill and contribute.

The swarms were down to their last inhabitants. However, now those ants that were left seemed to be the hardier of the bunch, being larger and apparently stronger, so those ants who did get around to biting would pack more punch.

I see. So that's how the averaged out the damage. Less ants, but more potent bites.

Still, despite his musings, there was still work to do. Beat had been pushing hard and the ants were beginning to waiver back and forth between the DPS and the tank Expanding his lungs and filling them to capacity, he hunched forward and expelled the air with strength and vigor.

"Not so fast, creepy crawlers!" he spat, his air buffeting the small foes around. "I'm not done with you yet!"

Turning on the shouting warrior, the remaining clusters swarmed, biting and scrabbling with all of their tiny limbs. Between the red pixels that many of the ants were still hemorrhaging and the sharpened razors of his armor, nearly all of the hatchlings burst into bright polygons and vanished.

"All yours if you want 'em, Teion!"

Teion steadied herself after her last attack and while the other players got their own hits in against the swarms. Before she knew it, two of the mobs had burst into light and vanished. Shield called out to her once the remaining swarms were on their last legs, health bars sitting in the red. The woman gave a small nod, tightening the grip on her axe as she focused her aim.

Her axe glowed a light blue once more, but rather than trying to use Ordinal Cleave again, the blacksmith scaled back and used a lower-level sword art just to finish the creatures off. With a single sweep of her blade, the damage she dealt was enough to deplete their health bars and leave the remaining two mobs shattering just the same. "Ugh, finally..." The woman mumbled, scanning briefly over the experience and loot notification. A sizeable amount of col, one crafting material and a weapon had been deposited into her inventory, but Teion dismissed the window under the assumption that they would inspect the detail of their loot once they'd cleared the dungeon.

A quick glance around left the blacksmith feeling just safe enough to cautiously sheath her weapon behind her. "Shall we catch our breath?" She suggested, eyes flickering to her party interface. Everyone was fine on health, but the damage-dealers' energy pools were under half. They could probably afford to keep going if they wanted, so she waited for the rest of the group to chime in before moving from her position.

Beat smiled at the purple haired blacksmith and the ninja and gave them each a nod of appreciation, "Nice damage. It's nice to not have to burn through everything I have to clear a high level mob." He said as his loot find ring glowed brightly,l drawing Beat's attention to a decorative, jeweled egg that was mixed in with the rest of the hatchling eggs.

"I swear to god if these hatch on me, I'm teleporting home." He said with a nervous smile as he reached in and retrieved that tier two material. He developed a nice sweat as he performed what felt like surgery to him. He left a large sigh of relief as, aside from a few quivering eggs, none of the hatchling eggs had spewed ants on him. 

"Worth it...I guess..." He said, stashing the egg away and looking to the others, "I actually have plenty of energy left. We can push a little more if we want."

Soredell: [220/220 HP] Rest: 1/3 turns

Soredell watched as Teion dealt with the last of the swarm, watching as the swarms, or what was left of them fell apart and evaporated in a flash of light. "Nice kill, got any good loot?" he asks her, curious as to hearing her finds from her hard earned kill. He glances over at his HUD, seeing his status. HP wise he's sitting nice and comfortable in the green, but his energy was a different story, with it being just over half. He wasn't sure whether or not he should try and get the others to rest for a few minutes or if he should just press on. He switches out his rings, swapping out <<Sin of Greed>> for <<Hunter's Vestige>>, seeing as though he really wasn't helping in combat right now. "My energy is at maybe just over half right now. I don't mind either way on whether we take a rest or not." he says to the group.

Before Shield had time to chime in on the matter, it seemed as if the dungeon had its own plans in store for them. There came another rumbling as before, and with a great splitting of large, leathery-skinned eggs, the remainder of the brood emerged, swarming together into masses as before, each making a beeline for a different member of the party. With barely enough time to ready his defenses, Shield puffed out his chest before squeezing its skeletal muscles to pressurize the air.

"No you don't," Shield's voice boomed, cutting a swath through the masses of antlings like a pressure washer. "If you're going after anyone, you're going after me!"

The armies immediately changed tack, reforming into their mounds and swarming over the tank's body. To his chagrin, the myriad pincers took little bites out of his health without suffering any of the ill effects of his thorns.

You lucky little buggers...

"Oh, yeah. Some col and a weapon, I think." The woman answered flatly, not bothering to open her inventory in response to Soredell's question. "Once we're out of here we can divide--" The sound of rumbling caused the blacksmith to cut her sentence short, her attention snapping back forward. Shield reacted quickly as always, managing to draw the swarms' attention to him before the monsters had finished closing the gap between themselves and the players.

Teion let out a tiny scowl. Her energy wouldn't allow for more than one more use of her strongest area attack, but she figured it would be better to go ahead and use it than try and stall. Without energy-restoring items, her passive regeneration rate was abysmal. Pulling out her weapon, she wasted no further time on analyzing, filling her lungs before dashing around the edge of the swarms. The woman's boots skidded against the ground as she came to a stop, holding her axe beside her as she swept the massive blade across to slice through all four masses.

Beat stomach flipped as more hatchlings flowed from the leathery eggs and formed into the familiar masses that he despised so much. He scowled as he rolled up his non-existent sleeves, filling his leg with a familiar pale blue glow and partially illuminated the passageway due the the extra power granted to his attacks by his consumables. 

"More tiny bugs...I'm going to blend you all up!" He said shouting as he charged forward, leaping off of the ground and spinning rapidly to whip up a fierce twister that picked up all four masses and sent them into the ceiling with a punishing roar. Beat skidded to a stop, staggering once or twice to find his balance as the masses slowly picked themselves up, a small trail of ants falling from them slowly as Beat's bleed effect took hold. 

"That's more like it. One more like that should do it I think. Let's just not them touch us ever and we'll be fine." He said as a quick shiver ran through his body.

Soredell looked at Teion as she spoke, waiting on her answer. Unfortunately for the time being he would need to wait on that answer, as a new swarm of ants emerged, forming themselves into larger constructs of a shining ants. At the sight of these damned mobs, Soredell felt his heart had traveled up to his throat. "Oh come on, NOT AGAIN! I thought I was done with you creepy mobs!" he cries out, not happy to see these creepy things again. He feels his back cringe as he watches the others fight, @Shield, Beat and Teion, and knows its his turn, although this is one combat encounter that he is not thrilled to be taking part in. Steeling his nerves and resolve, he charges at the first swarm with all the courage and anger he can muster, giving a ferocious yell as he cuts right through the swarm, many of its smaller inhabitants making up the structure turning into blue shards and evaporating, others pouring out, their colour going a pixellated red, indicating a reset in the established bleed effect. Hopping back, he checks his energy, and its low. He estimates he only has enough energy for one more powerful sword art before he's out. "I'm low on energy, we need to finish this now!" he calls out to the others.

Soredell was right. As the battle went into full swing, Shield kept his eye on the party's stats, and he was the only person who had any significant amount of energy left. If the swarms of enemies had any more hit points than they did left, he likely would have needed to stand up front and just soak hits until everyone recovered their energy.

Wouldn't be the first time I've had to do it. Both Beat and Beatbox have had to dip out to recover before.

Still, things being where they were, there would likely be just enough energy among them to finish the job. Judging by the lack of eggs remaining, this was to be the last swarm of hatchlings. In the midst of crunching numbers and analyzing, however, he almost missed how much attention Beat was attracting. The swarms, now severely reduced in number, had begun to surround the less defensive player. In a moment of quick panic, he took a deep breath and compressed it inside of his chest.

"Well, that's rude of you," he howled, bowling several of the little antlings over with the force of his wind. "We were all playing together and you just start ignoring me? I'm offended!"

The remaining hoards chittered like mad looking at one another with segmented eyes before clustering back together and swarming towards Shield once again. As they bit and scratched at him, several more of them fell victim to his thorns, shattering into little pale blue shards of light.

Teion nearly chuckled at Shield's words as the tank taunted their enemies, a half-smirk resting on her features at his words. The other players had just finished their attacks, and the swarms were all fairly weak now. One more solid area attack would wipe them all out. Standing confidently, the violet-haired woman readied herself for another attack only to quickly realize her energy level was extremely low. "Tch." She scoffed under her breath, mentally cursing the resource mechanic. If she had been able to activate even her second-strongest ability, the swarms wouldn't have been able to survive. With a small huff of air through her nose, Teion made a quick decision to instead activate a weaker sword art that would nearly drain what little energy she had left. She wouldn't allow herself to stand idly in the middle of combat unless absolutely necessary--if not wiping them out, she could at least leave them well in the red for the other players to finish off.

The silver blade of her scythe glowed sky blue as the woman needed only a few quick strides to close the distance between herself and the monsters. She took three wide, sweeping strikes at the swarms, knocking loose some of the creatures that formed them as it registered damage to the whole of the target.

Beat smiled as Teion continued to prove her worth in their fight. It was certainly helpful that there was more than one dps capable of area of effect sword arts in the party. The second damage dealer allowed them to push their resources further and more efficiently, though after his next shot, Beat knew he would need a good rest. 

"Alright, this last one should do it. Then back to giant, gross soldier ants okay?" He said as his left leg shimmered with the power of the third level sword art that had served him so well in his short career. 

Beat took off towards the grouping of hatchlings and wasted no time whipping up a twisters that shredded the insects to pieces, leaving behind nothing but a somewhat satisfying loot screen. 

"heh, not bad, but I think we should find a good place to rest for now yeah?" He said, wiping the sweat from his brow, noting the low level of his energy bar.

Soredell pants heavily as he watches the ants get decimated through the combined efforts of the party, namely Beat, the main DPS for the group, smashing the swarms to tiny shards of light, evaporating into nothing, never to be seen again. At least until they respawn in a few minutes. He sheathes his sword and collapses to the ground, exhausted at the combat. He looks over to his energy bar, watching it slowly begin to fill up again. All he could really do now is wait and rest until he and everyone else had rested up, replenished their energy, and was ready to continue their quest through this dungeon, bar far his least favorite. "How about we rest here... for a few... minutes... or more..." he says to the group between ragged breaths. He'd never been an athletic person, needing good long rests between strenuous physical activity in the real world. Sword Art Online had certainly pushed the limits of Soredell's abilities just for the sake of survival.

With the remainder of the eggs now destroyed and no danger of more infant ants swarming out of anywhere, Shield finally let his shoulders slump to a more relaxed position. His fingers swiped down through the air to summon his menu and he navigated the screens to trade out his combat gear for his Seeking Aura and Finder's Keeper trinkets.

"I know we cut it close on that one," he said, glancing down at his party HUD to see the remaining energy. "We made it though."

Even as he spoke, he could see a faint glow on his shoulder cast by the inlaid gold wire on his otherwise silver hoop earring. Glancing around for the source of the phenomenon, Shield spotted a piece of stone with dull, red deposits running in streaks along its surface. Still, it didn't quite look like iron ore. It seemed to have a crystalline quality to it.

"Cinnabar?" he thought aloud. He was not sure what purpose mercury had in SAO, but here it was in front of him.

Teion let the pommel of her axe drop to the cave floor, letting out a small thud noise at the contact. The woman gripped the handle, leaning against the weapon as steady breaths filled and escaped from her lungs in a rhythm. Her first experience with a dungeon, she wasn't at all worried about their safety judging from the past few instances of combat. Their escape, however, was feeling questionable. How long had it been since they first embarked on the Hoya quest? It was before noon, right? Teion's eyes flickered upward, instinctively looking for a sky that was now hidden by a dark cave ceiling. The blacksmith frowned at both her thoughtlessness and inability to gauge the time. She wasn't feeling sleepy, but then again, the adrenaline from all of the recent combat was still coursing through her.

Shield's word caught Teion's attention, causing her gaze to shift to the brunette with the material in his hand. She took a couple of steps to close the gap between them, staring at the hunk of stone in his hand with a small frown. After a few moments' deliberation, she gave a small shake of her head. "Can't use it." She said simply, indicating that the item wasn't compatible with her blacksmithing skill. Feeling as if something was tugging at her attention, Teion's eyes traveled along the wall of the cave until they fixed on an incredibly small crystal formation. She walked over to the edge of the room, eyeing the translucent crystal along the way. The woman raised her axe before dropping the blade onto the base of the crystal. The item split off from the plain rock surrounding it, allowing Teion to retrieve the item from the ground and add it to her inventory.

Beat's eyes scanned the room for several minutes as he looked in each of the hatched eggs to be certain that he would be covered in a swarm of ants if he were to sit down on the ground. It was a race against time, however as his legs began to practically refuse to work any more without rest. Beat shook his head and walked over to the side of the dungeon, "Alright, resting it is. No more standing." He said with a chuckle to himself more than anyone else as he plopped down on the ground, resting his back against the cool wall of the dungeon. 

He looked over to Teion before he began to speak, "So, What sort of build are you going for? Straight damage or more of a scouting build?" Beat's head was still somewhat fuzzy from the strength of the alcohol he had imbibed, but he was more just making small talk to try and get to know players other than Shield as well as pass the time while they waited for their energy to replenish itself. Shield was a good friend, but he willingness to carry on a conversation was sometimes in short supply.

Soredell lets his breathing become less ragged and slows down, enough so it no longer sounds like he's panting like a dog, but just breathing heavily. He watches the corner of his HUD where his health and energy indicators were, watching the energy bar slowly fill itself back up. He'd need all the energy he could get if he wanted to get to the end of the dungeon alive, and still be useful among higher leveled players like @Shield, Teion and Beat. He gets up slowly and leans back against the cave wall, watching the others. Shield and Teion seem to have found some higher tier crafting materials during their break, but looking around, Soredell fails to find anything that looks remotely useful or usable. He keeps quiet as he rests and simply chooses to listen in to the conversation that Beat seems to be trying to start while they rest and wait.

Since his build was not reliant on energy, Shield took it upon himself to scout the perimeter to make sure they would not be ambushed. He paced back and forth from one side of the room to the other, keeping watch down both the entrance and the exit. Between passes, his eyes traced the outlines of the room as well, making sure eggs were not respawning as they waited.

Good. It seems so far that they're not regenerating. There were just supposed to be two encounters' worth of enemies in here. If more eggs started popping in out of nowhere, I would have been a little concerned.

Over his shoulder, he heard Beat begin to strike up small talk with @Teion.

Good luck with that one, Beat. If you're hoping that she's more talkative than me, you're going to be sorely disappointed.

He took another glance at the path ahead, letting his eyes linger on the darkness at the end of his vision before turning back around for another lap.
