[SP-F1] <<The Second Lesson, is Also Free>>


Recommended Posts

Pick hated doing things on his own, but for some of the quests that do not require more than one individual, it it sometimes not necessary for him to request assistance on quests such as this one. He had already done the first starter quest, and it had been quite an easy one since it was revolved around material gathering. This one, however, was not the same. This one, he had to use far more than his simple material gathering... instead, he wold have to fight mobs on this one. Or at least, that's what he had heard. The objective of the quest, which he had been holding off, was to go meet up with a blacksmith first. He had the location pinned in his mini-map, so it should be simple for him to get there. He wanted to get the quest done fast, so he can get material gathering done too.

Using <<Farming>> Build

Pick walked into the blacksmith shop with his head held high. He was here to do a quest, and he would get it done in the most effective manner. Since he was helping an NPC, and this counts as a tutorial, he would follow through with it all the way until the end, even if this might take a long time, since he had never personally fought anything before. Pick sighed, he would have to get used to combat eventually, and this would be the first step since he can finally use his golden axe as a method of farming. For now, his damage output wasn't that great. Eventually, though, he'll be able to effectively wield the axe and defeat monsters. Pick smiled, accepting the quest with a nod. He would get this quest done as fast as possible - he could possibly even use an AoE and test the waters with his weapon.

Pick walked into the fields. He had heard that the battle axe was a highly skilled weapon but really heavy. It is used to hit many enemies at once, so this makes farming especially easy one you get to a very high-level. Of course, Pick couldn't use this method as a method of farming at low levels. However, this would prove to be effective for him to use against mobs that weren't as strong such as for quests like this. Activating his sword art against a boar that was in the fields, he soon realized that he could complete the quest with one swing, he decided that with that, he would activate his AoE attack. Pick swung his golden axe, and the boars were damaged. Three of them perished, but the last one survived, and it attempted to seek revenge for his companions. "Sorry," Pick said as he stepped back.

Pick was confident that he could end the fight right there. He had the ability to hit the opponent due to his accuracy enhancement and he had the ability to use his own luck to damage opponents. Pick was fully capable of combat, now that he had learned, and he was actually not as bad as fighting as he had originally thought. Pick smiled, lifting up his golden axe and lifting it over his shoulders before activating <<Whirlwind>>. It sent a shockwave, but he shock wave was not enough to reach the boar, causing it to jump over it, coming straight at Pick with an attack. Pick had not expected the boar to avoid the attack, and thus he was caught off guard. Without even trying to dodge the attack, Pick had been hit square in the chest. Luckily, the damage was minimal - almost non-existent, in fact. Pick sighed, getting ready again.

Pick smirked, getting his axe ready for the final attack. He would get this quest done as fast as possible, and with this in mind, he began to get his axe ready. With a smile, he swung his axe backwards before sprinting forwards as fast as possible. He was slower in this game than he was in real life due to the fact that this game doesn't determine speed on how fast you were in real life. Pick whipped a piece of sweat, knowing that he could defeat the boar at once. Winding up, he brought the axe down with a higher, more powerful shock wave, managing to hit the target brilliantly. Pick smiled, finishing up the battle. Although he couldn't get loot from all these mobs, he was able to gather what the quest required him to gather, making it a success. Plus, he was able to fully grasp the combat system.

Pick would get down to material gathering. He had one expresso that could be useful to someone else, and he had another that he could use for himself. After this, though, he would have to buy some more, since he was running low again. He had only bought two the last time that he did this, so he would have to try and get more if he can. Pick coughed, clearing his throat as he got down to it. This was on the first floor, so it would be difficult for him to get that much materials. He would try once, and if he fails, he would  consume a potion to help him out with the rest of the material gathering session. Besides, he was already done with the quest, practically, so he had free time to do whatever he wanted. Pick sighed, noticing that there was absolutely nothing around.

No roll

Pick had this expresso in his inventory - two of them in fact, and he would be able to use one of them today to make material gathering easier. Although it wasn't something he planned to do today, he had free time after completing the quest so it would not be troublesome if he was to use this potion to gather more materials. It would only take him approximately an hour to get about six materials, which is what he paid for the material gathering expresso. He could make a profit, even if it wasn't in the garden where materials were plentiful and everything is so easy to accomplish. Outside of the garden, he would have to try a lot harder in order to achieve the same amount of materials, and most likely, it would take even more time that if he had just decided to go into the garden. Pick sighed.

Pick had consumed the luck expresso, so it should be a lot easier for him to gather materials. Now Pick had more chances of finding a material than not. Pick was confident in his material gathering abilities, so he was fully aware that he will be able to get a lot of materials. Pick smiled, looking around for any materials that he didn't already have. Normally, he would collect apples or mushrooms for his cooks, but today, he wanted to get something different, perhaps branches in the small amount of forestry that exists in this game. These branches would prove to be an effective manner of material gathering, because he was able to find two as soon as he walked into the nearest sequence of trees. There were not that many trees on this floor, but the few should have plenty of materials all over them if he guessed correctly.

Pick smiled, watching as someone in the distance seemed to be walking around as well, trying to find materials as well. Of course, Pick wouldn't be the only person completing a material gathering session since material gathering is quite important. Pick smiled - none of them were as efficient as he is, though, so it's a waste of time for them to be gathering materials instead of fighting mobs and getting stronger. Pick glanced around, looking for more materials that he can potenntially pick up. It was then that he saw a few bugs that were crawling up the side of a tree near the boy who was material gathering. With his thief instincts, he rushed over. The boy seemed to have noticed a bug too, the same bug so he went for it at the same time. Luckily, Pick was able to get there first, so the materials were soon to be in his inventory.

"Hey buddy, what are you doing! Those materials were mine, hand them back!" The boy said, obviously frustrated and worn-out from half a day's worth of material gathering. From his attitude, Pick was able to deduce that he did not have a fruitful and productive morning. Most people didn't, when they don't understand the concept of making one's own luck. Pick smiled, shaking his head as he began to speak against him.

"Unfortunately for you. Those materials are now in my pocket. It's a shame that you were too slow to get there before someone else does. Let me tell ya, this material gathering thing - it's a thing that is like competition. You either get them fast, or they're going to all disappear," Pick smiled, starting to walk away from the man. He wanted to approach a girl in the distance, as she was kind of attractive, and she seemed to be gathering materials as well.

Pick watched as the man seemed to get angrier as he began to walk away, and that was when he lashed out at him, literally sprinting at him. Pick noticed at the last moment, and was able to side-step a few steps to the left, dodging the attack although it was a very well-timed one. He seemed to want those materials desperately, but Pick would never give materials to someone of his personality - too rash, too excited. Pick wanted to give materials to people who were calm, and people who would appreciate his giving of these materials. Pick smirked, watching as the man slowly got up from the ground without saying anything. Once he was up, Pick began to walk away. He had nothing to do with the man, so he should not be bothering him in anyway. One of these days, he would need to get a body guard for these people.

At this point, he was just sub-consciously gathering materials as he walked towards the pretty lady on the other side of the great plain of the first floor. It seemed that bugs were literally flying into his hands, and without even moving his arms, he could just close his hands on these bugs, claiming them as his materials. Material gathering sure was easy in this game, even without any sort of searching skill. One item and a few time spent on the first floor makes it so easy to do something like this. Materials weren't a problem - it was easy as heck to find. Now, he needed col, and in order to obtain that col, he would have to level up his skill of battle axe. Of course, his plan of not using violence would get ruined, but it is necessary for him to do this to become who he wants to be.

Pick bumped into someone. It felt like a wall, and he was sent back stumbling. While he was getting his material searching done, and looking ahead at the girl. He didn't notice that there was a huge, buff guy with shades standing in front of him. He was wearing a black tank-top, and although he had no tattoos in this game, he was surely filled with them in the real life. His body status was completely unlike that of other players, and he was a fitting player to be a bodyguard just as Pick thought about having one. With one like this, he could definitely intimidate other players, maybe other mobs as well.

"Hey there," Pick exclaimed, "I see that you look quite strong. Do you think my materials would give you enough of a motivation to become my body guard? I've got quite the skill," Pick finished, beginning to demonstrate.

The man grunted as Pick prepared to demonstrate his abilities as a material gathering expert. Pick raised his right hand, watching as yet another bug came into his hand. But that wasn't it - another bug followed the same bug into his hand, and just like that, he had two materials in his hands. Pick looked at the man and gave him a smirk - the man was way buffer than Pick could ever be, and although his stats might not reflect that, he is definitely a good man to have around when he wants to force something out of someone. Pick smiled, leaning forwards as he began to yet again speak.

"So, materials... and we can work together, what do you think?" Pick asked, ready to make the offer.

"I'm in deep need of those materials. I'm not that strong in this game either, since I never intended to be here." The man continued the conversation.

Pick nodded. He had anticipated that the man was not as brilliant as a player in terms of stats. He looked intimidating, but was probably weaker than Pick in terms of his gaming abilities. Pick still wanted him around though, because other players cannot possibly know that. Pick sighed, glancing a quick look at the man, smirking in confidence. "Excellent, I just need you to look intimidating, which you succeed without even trying. So add me to your friend's list, and I will add yours as well. What is your name, sir. My name is Pick."

The man stared at him for a few seconds, and honestly, Pick was getting a bit nervous there. The man had some sort of aura around him that Pick didn't have. It wasn't confidence, but pure seriousness, and he seemed so ready to beat anyone up who came his way. Pick felt a bug fly into his hands.

Pick smiled, "Well, you can tag along and experience what it's like to be a lucky person. If your bad luck reflects off me, though, I'm going to have to ask you to refrain from tagging along with me." Pick smirked, grinning at the joke. The man didn't even have a weapon. He was weak, but no one else could see that. 

"So, what have you been doing this whole game, if you are so garbage in your gear and stuff." Pick said, beginning to try and find out some information about the man. Pick couldn't say his past, but perhaps this man had a history that was worth listening to.

"I am a father. My son gave me a nerve gear to try out and he insisted on it. I'm actually a body guard, and I have worked with plenty of celebrities before, so I should be good at intimidating people."

Pick allowed the man to follow him in silence. He had no plan of slowing down his material gathering just because he had met a new character. He was out here to make it big, make some cash, make bank. Pick could perhaps even start some sort of a bank using a system of loans and interest rate. Once Pick had the money, he could come up with a scheme to completely dominate the competition in the market. He smiled, looking at a few apples that had grown on a tree nearby. Pick had wanted to not get apples because he had plenty of them already. Instead, he wanted something different. Pick smiled, jumping up to the tree, climbed it with a bit of difficulty, before taking the apples off. Actually, there were more than what he expected there to be in that tree, and Pick was glad that it was a success.

Pick had been searching for materials for a long time now, and he was very glad with the results since this wasn't even the original purpose that he had come to the first floor with on today. Pick wanted to gather materials after he was done with the quest, but he had not expected this quest to be completed so easily. Things truly were just easier with some of those sword arts that he had obtained a just a couple of days ago. Getting that skill was the right choice in the end, and although he didn't want to be violent, having a weapon skill sure made it easier for him to do anything in this game in general. He would be able to help people on quests, do his own quests by himself, and Pick smiled, able to call it a good day with just what he had. "Looks like we've gotten all of the mats."

Pick grinned. Twenty-five materials was not a small amount, and he was very pleased with the materials that he had obtained. Those bugs could be used in a potion and he had wanted to see what alchemists can do with their stuff. Now, it was time to go turn in his quest, even though he had spent a long time gathering these materials and not a long time actually completing the quests. Pick didn't care though, because he was a material gathering expert. Heading back, he soon found the same place where he had started the quest, and he turned in the quest, giving the himself the additional skill points that would contribute to him getting the next weapon skill that would make farming even more easier. Now he needed to level up so his energy could become better, and after that, he'll be well on his way to becoming the richest.

Pick walked on, satisfied with the day's work. He could maybe even get a treasure chest somehow outside of the safe zone and with that, he can use unidentified weapons or armors to help out with his merchant profession. By identifying these additional unidentified items, Pick can definitely obtain the experience and level up as a merchant. He walked out of the first floor, wondering where there could be a treasure chest waiting for him. As he continued to walk, he soon stumbled across a bush and walking into the bush, he saw the golden glow that he was all too familiar with now that he had found three treasure chests already. Pick was excited, as he could discover what sort of loot he might obtain. Hopefully, it's not a mimic, because that would certainly be unfortunate for him. Pick sighed, getting ready to open the treasure chest, and hoping for good luck.
