    【☆3】Old Hiers Erntal【Dungeon Specific】


    ?


    ?


    ?


    ?


    324: Healthyunpeble


    So, did the leaders manage to defeat the roaming boss after that?


    325: Wayne


    >>324 No, it’s tough because the attacks of melee sses don’t reach. Plus, there’s no yer specializing in long-range attacks in the party. My magic isn’t a decisive blow either. However,pletely shifting to magic specialization at this point seems awkward.


    326: Healthyunpeble


    Seems like being a jack-of-all-trades backfired. In this game, there’s no clear boundary betweenbat and nonbat times. You can employ tactics like hitting and running freely. I thought having a variety of skills would be an advantage, but it looks like having someone specialized in long-range attacks is essential.


    327: Gi1gamesh


    Roaming bosses onlye out when you approach that big mansion in the center of the city, like a small castle. You can gain decent experience by breaking into houses on the outskirts of the city and hunting zombies.


    328: Nameless Elf


    >>327


    Are those really zombies?


    329: Cramp


    >>328


    I strongly doubt it. There are times even mid-level yers can’t win, and they don’t die unless you destroy their heads or hearts.


    330: Haust


    Could they be vampires?


    331: Gi1gameshn/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om


    No way, it’s not that. They’re inside every building in the city. There are thousands of them. Some don’t evene back to life when you enter their houses. Whatever they are, they’re undoubtedly animated corpses.


    332: Cramp


    >>331


    Could it be that they onlye to life after another party defeats them?


    333: Gi1gamesh


    There are no external injuries at all, so it’s probably different.


    334: Haust


    Is that so? Any other information?


    335: Gi1gamesh


    Fangs, you know? Their teeth are long.


    336: Haust


    In that case, it’s definitely a vampire.


    337: MentaList


    I see, a vampire. In that case, if you get your blood sucked, it might fulfill some kind of resurrection condition.


    338: Cramp


    I want to be a vampire for real! But I’ve never experienced an attack like bloodsucking. I’ve died in Erntal, though.


    339: Haust


    Then maybe it’s not a vampire after all.


    340: Nameless Elf


    >>339


    You’re targeting me with yourments, aren’t you?


    ?


    ?

    【☆5】Old Hiers Capital Dungeon-specific Thread


    ?


    ?


    ?


    ?


    1312: Lyewarehouse


    By the way, what happened to the vanguard whose equipment was destroyed? You can’t repair it here.


    1313: Healthyunpeble


    I negotiated with a cksmith-type production yer and had theme to the capital safety area. They charged a hefty fee, but the vanguard yers pitched in to pay. However, we’re struggling to earn enough to cover the production cost of new equipment.


    1314: CountryPop


    >>1313


    Oh, an NPC merchant came to the safety area.


    1315: Healthyunpeble


    >>1314


    Seriously? How did theye?


    Can NPCs teleport?


    1316: Orinki


    They can’t teleport, but they just came by horse-drawn carriage like it was nothing. And then, there was a yer, maybe a bodyguard-like beast person, taking materials from the inventory. The NPC craftsmen brought by the merchant were building houses.


    1317: Healthyunpeble


    That building, huh? It suddenly appeared when I logged in, so I thought it was a silent update.


    1318: Orinki


    I thought the same! But when I looked closely, the NPC craftsmen were building it in shifts. The power of their skills is amazing.


    1319: Healthyunpeble


    What is that building for? Is it for living?


    1320: Lyewarehouse


    >>1319


    It seems to be an inn. There are various production facilities too. Well, you could say it’s for living. The NPC in charge, like the merchant’s boss, stays here and supports yers, especially mercenary yers aiming to recapture the capital. Of course, they charge a fee. With that, we can finally repair our equipment, but I wonder how we managed until now, as mentioned in >>1312.


    1321: Healthyunpeble


    Will they buy the new materials I have now? If they do, it could be a way to make money for updating equipment.


    1322: Orinki


    They actively buy the metal chunks dropped in the capital. So, from now on, magic users like us can find benefits other than experience points.


    1323: Lyewarehouse


    >>1322


    It might be a good idea to advertise this widely. If the yerbase increases, NPC facilities might be more sophisticated.


    1324: Orinki


    >>1323


    Let’s clear sub-quests and develop the city kind of content!


    First quest: “Increase the Poption.”


    1325: Lyewarehouse


    One more thing, I heard this from a yer who was a bodyguard, but if you see a weird forest-like area on the opposite side of the capital from the safety area, it’s new. When they asked the merchants, they said there was nothing like that before. It might be a new area.


    1326: Healthyunpeble


    Seriously? I have time until new equipment arrives, so I might check it out. Anyone want toe?


    1327: CountryPop


    >>1326


    You’re an unyielding one, huh? Well, there’s probably no reason to set up an area with a difficulty level higher than the capital right next to it. I’ll go along.


    1328: Lyewarehouse


    >>1326


    I want to report it in the verification thread, so I’lle too.

    【☆3】Old Hiers – La Colinne Forest【Dungeon Specific】


    ?


    ?


    ?


    ?


    1512: White Seaweed


    There’s asionally a luck-based element, isn’t there?


    1513: Lamp


    Ah, I think I understand.


    1514: Mountain Grape


    Even if you think you’ve gotten good at judging when to leave or something like that, sometimes a Queen Spider suddenly appears and tramples you.


    1515: Walnut


    Also, there are traps that you can’t escape from. When you think there are no traps, you suddenly get caught in a trap and killed by spider silk. Well, there might not be conventional dungeon traps, but…


    1516: Nameless Elf


    Even so, the experience points are quite substantial, and spider silk can be turned into money. It’s a good hunting ground, isn’t it?


    1517: Burning ss


    Sis, weren’t you in the Erntal thread earlier?


    1518: Nameless Elf


    Don’t call me sis.


    Just checking things out. They’re neighbors, so it might be good for a change of pace to go over there.


    1519: Haruka


    Speaking of which, there was an NPC merchant in the safety area. They were building a house.


    1520: Nameless Elf


    I saw that. Is it okay for them to build buildings like this on their own? I wonder if it’s fine since they’re NPCs? Whosend is it anyway?


    1521: White Seaweed


    If you think about it normally, it’s the country, right? But the country doesn’t exist anymore.


    1522: Lamp


    If the cmity took over the country, wouldn’t it be considerednd of the cmity?


    1523: Mountain Grape


    So, did the merchant get permission from the cmity to build a house?


    1524: Walnut


    If they didn’t get permission, it’s quite bold.


    1525: Nameless Elf


    Even if they got permission, it’s still bold. How did you go to meet them? And where are they now? The capital is out, and no one’s home, right?


    ?


    ?

    【☆1】Old Hiers – Teur Grasnds【Dungeon Specific】


    ?


    ?


    ?


    ?


    722: Marshal Matsukasa


    So, it’s confirmed that this dungeon was taken over by the boss from the previous event?


    723: Macky


    Definitely. The spawn has changed fromrge moles to giant ants.


    724: Dyna


    So, is the boss here the cmity?


    725: Nose Elephant


    No, if that were the case, it wouldn’t be ssified as ☆1, and the boss itself might not exist separately.


    726: Zekio


    Or it could be like the ☆1 ruined city with only zombies, something like another area in Hiers. There might be no boss at all.


    727: Lin Company


    Like Altriva? How would we conquer it if there’s no boss?


    728: Marshal Matsukasa


    Who said dungeons can be conquered in the first ce?


    729: Cokyu


    No one said that. It’s true that there are dungeons with bosses and without, but defeating the boss doesn’t necessarily mean clearing it.


    730: Dyna


    Well, that can’t be helped, right? Even if there are many dungeons, the number is limited. If clearing means the end, the top yers will dominate everything, and the content will be over.


    731: Lin Company


    That’s true. If cleared dungeons be manageable by the yers who cleared them, it would be interesting.


    732: Zekio


    Isn’t that already a different game? And what about the regr monsters inside the dungeon?


    733: Lin Company


    >>732


    Party members.


    734: Cokyu


    Insane, huh?


    ?


    ?


    ?


    ?


    3006: Zekio


    Isn’t the city developing at an incredible pace? Are there really so many people building and living here?


    3007: Lin Company


    Don’t you know? As mentioned a while ago, the city of Rifure and Teur Grasnds are close by. Teleportation is one-way, so normally, when you teleport to a dungeon, you have to walk back to the city via roads or whatever. But since the Teur Grasnd is right next to the city of Rifure, you can teleport to a different location right after teleporting. If there are simr cities, they can mutually teleport. There are dedicated threads for that. Thanks to this, a lot of yers have gathered, and NPCs have increased due to the influx. Simr cities in other countries seem to be the same, but in terms of development, Rifure and the city of Felicita in Aural are outstanding.


    3008: Zekio


    I had no idea. Could it be that residents are registering because of this?


    3009: Cokyu


    I think I saw a notice about zoning for registration. Did you know that yers can also register? There are residence registration and stay registration, and even with stay registration, most guilds offer discounts on consumables. Inns also be cheaper, but considering the current building rush, it might be a good idea to buy a house for the future. It seems that if you want to buy a house, residence registration is required.


    3010: Zekio


    I don’t have the money to buy a house. This is the ☆1 Dungeon Thread, you know?


    3011: Dyna


    Or rather than the main thread, if you look at the thread created by the person who first discovered these special location conditions, yers who have money, such as wealthy merchant-type yers, seem to be actively grabbingnd and buildings. Rifure and Felicita already have too highnd prices, and it seems impossible to rentnd, but considering the development speed, these two cities are undoubtedly actively funded by the lords. They seem to be working hard to establish shops in Rifure or Felicita for the future.


    3012: Zekio


    Is that why there are yers who don’t seem like beginners in the city? I was wondering why there are still only rookies in the dungeon.


    3013: Lin Company


    For better or worse, Old Hiers is gaining attention. It might be because yers are interested in it in a negative way, but attracting yers is also a plus. The lords probably noticed that yers are gathering, and it makes sense for them to focus on Rifure and Felicita. Felicita is probably close because it’s a neighboring country.


    3014: Marshal Matsukasa


    Isn’t it still not relevant whether it’s close or not if it’s just teleportation?


    3015: Dyna


    It might not matter for yers, but it’s not the same for NPCs. Ultimately, NPCs living in the city are the ones that will develop it, so the location is crucial.

    【☆4】Kingdom of Pearl – Neuschloss【Dungeon Specific】


    ?


    ?


    ?


    ?


    258: Crack


    It’s here!!


    259: Saint Riegan


    What’s here?


    260: Crack


    Finally, a special boss enemy has appeared in Neuschloss!


    261: Saint Riegan


    Eh? Seriously?


    In the city? In the forest? What kind of enemy?


    262: Crack


    In the city! While wandering around the city, everyone got wiped out without us noticing.


    263: Saint Riegan


    What the heck? You didn’t see iting?


    264: Crack


    No, because we were killed almost instantly, all four of us.


    We didn’t even have time to see what happened, lol.


    265: Thermos


    Ugh, I’m stuck.


    266: Crack


    But I can probably sense the signs.


    It’s like the difficulty changes seen in other dungeons.


    267: Tatt


    To ☆5 or something?


    Are they nning to wipe out everyone when there are already so few challengers?


    268: Crack


    No, this one is the type you won’t notice unless you’re in the city.


    If you start seeing goblin dismembered bodies in the city, be cautious. Probably.


    269: Saint Riegan


    That might be the work of another party.


    270: Crack


    It’s not that. It’s just a normal corpse without any signs of being skinned or anything.


    Moreover, the tough giant goblin with hard skin and bones was cut smoothly.


    It’s not something that can be done with the weapons and magic yers have. Also, our respawned armor was cleanly cut. The culprit who did that is undoubtedly the same.


    271: Thermos


    So wearing armor is pointless? Equipment destruction? Defense-ignoring attacks?


    Either way, it’s tough. What are the conditions for its appearance?


    272: Crack


    We’ve only encountered it once, so I have no idea what triggered it.


    273: Tatt


    Approaching the central part of the city, maybe?


    Or getting closer to the forest?


    274: Crack


    I’ve never been to the forest, but there are parties attacking the forest already.


    Maybe the forest is unrted? Also, it’s not impossible that getting close to the Lord’s Manor triggered it. There were parties attacking the forest that ignored the Lord’s Manor.


    275: Saint Riegan


    Yeah, that’s right. I wonder if they’re attacking now.


    276: Thermos


    Why are you so happy about it, Crack (258)? Also, there’s a possibility of idental deaths with an unknown cause in the future.


    277: Crack


    Because there are so few people here!


    If there’s a sensational topic, hardcore yers mighte and liven things up!


    ?


    ?


    ?


    ?


    311: Takuma


    I’m sorry, Mare-san. If you’re there, please post.


    312: Saint Riegan


    Hey, the forest attackers are here. Who’s Mare?


    313: Shiitake


    The solo yer we teamed up with earlier. Or was it just a coincidence that she was solo today? Anyway, she was ridiculously strong. Yay! Mare-san, are you reading this? If you are, send me a message!


    314: Takuma


    I went to the deepest part of the forest, almost piggybacking on Mare-san. The boss was indeed in the forest. The Lord’s Manor is probably a dummy.


    315: Crack


    Seriously?


    If it’s a dummy, then the appearance conditions for Jack the Ripper are unrted to the Lord’s Manor. Or maybe Jack’s dwelling is in the Lord’s Manor?


    316: Kouki


    Who’s Jack? Well, seeing the strength of the forest boss, it doesn’t matter if something was in the Lord’s Manor.


    317: Saint Riegan


    So, what was the boss like?


    318: Takuma


    It was a giant goblin wayrger than regr mobs.


    About three meters tall?


    It had a log-sized club and literally crushed us to death.


    319: Thermos


    It hurts just hearing that.


    Did that super strong Mare-san alsoe back from the dead?


    320: Tonbo


    No, she had been with us because we asked for her help.


    I didn’t participate in that battle.


    321: Saint Riegan


    So, you parted ways in front of the boss?


    322: Takuma


    It would have been better if that’s what happened, but in the end, we stuck together until thest moment.


    At that timing, I don’t think she could have escaped from the boss. Probably, after we respawned, she had to fight alone.


    I had already apologized and got her understanding in advance, but I wanted to apologize and thank her again.


    323: Crack


    Instead of that, haven’t Takuma and the others encountered Jack the Ripper?


    324: Takuma


    Who’s that? A yer?


    325: Crack


    No, probably a special enemy, like a roaming boss. While wandering around the city, we found many dismembered goblin bodies. Then, before we knew it, we were also dismembered.


    326: Thermos


    In an already unpopr area, an unexined boss appears.


    327: Kouki


    I read the previous posts. Did such a thing really happen?


    Maybe all the users are actually on site?


    328: Shiitake


    Passing each other. Considering the time of the post and the time we met Mare-san, we must havee from the town to the forest in about a short run. That’s impossible while fighting the goblins in that town, isn’t it? Mare-san is a magician, and if she’s going to fight, she’s going to have to recap.


    329: Tonbo


    But Mare-san seemed to be carrying a weapon like a spear.


    330: Kouki


    But we didn’t see her true strength. Her physical skills and short sword were amazing, though.


    331: Crack


    What, is Mare-san a high-level magic user who can handle both long-range and closebat? Such a hardcore yer! And she’s cute too, no doubt an essential VR idol!


    The era of Neuschloss hase!


    332: Takuma


    Hey, no one has explicitly mentioned Mare’s appearance and gender yet. (T/N: the text until here is gender neutral in Japanese)


    333: Crack


    It’s oozing out from your posts.


    334: Shiitake


    Sharp observation. Creepy.


    335: Saint Riegan


    Hey, I’m in the city now, but there are no regr mobs. In fact, there are only corpses?


    In other words, there are corpses that are unharmed.


    336: Crack


    Oh, dismembered corpses!?


    337: Saint Riegan


    Not dismembered, just intact corpses.


    At first, I thought they were just sleeping.


    338: Thermos


    Really?


    I’ll go check it out.


    339: Takuma


    I want to go, but I just got a death penalty.


    340: Hourai


    Takuma, I just gained so much experience points a while ago that even after losing some, I have more than before.


    341: Shiitake


    Oh, seriously.


    Let’s go check it out too.


    342: Thermos


    There are random corpses lying around.


    It’s a free-for-all on looting!


    343: Tatt


    No one has posted since Takuma and the others dered their departure. Is everyone here at the scene?


    344: Takuma


    Because there are no regr mobs at all, we rushed to the forest.


    The forest is alsopletely empty.


    There are corpses, but…


    345: Crack


    Lord’s Manor explorationplete! There’s nothing here!


    The office has signs of being ransacked, but the corpses are untouched.


    Goblins were sitting in chairs, so I thought something happened, but upon closer inspection, they were dead.


    346: Kouki


    Some kind of ghost story? It’s creepy, though.


    347: Takuma


    The boss area in the back of the forest is also empty…


    No corpses.


    The log house that should have been there is gone.


    The square is the same as when we respawned, but there are ashes and charcoal scattered around here and there.


    Maybe Mare-san soloed the boss in the forest?


    348: Shiitake


    After that, the mobs disappeared, which means Mare-tan might have soloed the boss.


    Then, the dungeon is considered cleared, and the mobs disappeared all at once?


    349: Tonbo


    Then why isn’t the person herself here?


    350: Hourai


    … mutual kill, perhaps?


    351: Takuma


    What the hell…


    Mare-san! If you’re watching this thread, please post!


    352: Saint Riegan


    Is that yer really there?


    It’s too dramatic; it’s either an orchestrated NPC by the developers or something.


    If there was a battle intense enough to turn that log house into ashes, the square should look different too. Depending on the country, the nobility is supposed to be strong, right? Maybe an undercover duke or duchess traveling to various countries for reform?


    353: Tonbo


    No, we handed over the dropped items we got to the inventory.


    Everyone witnessed that.


    354: Crack


    Is it a collective hallucination?


    355: Saint Riegan


    >>354


    Is it the ce to talk about others? I heard that you’re also skeptical about this ‘Jack the Ripper’ person that you saw.


    356: Takuma


    Mare-san! Aren’t you seeing this, Mare-san!


    357: Tatt


    Instead of that, why are Takuma’s party members talking to each other on the forum when they’re in the same ce? lol


    358: Saint Riegan


    Anyway, even if what Takuma and the others are saying is true, it’s probably the first dungeon clearing report.


    Unfortunately, the person who cleared it is absent.


    And if the dungeon is cleared, do all the monsters disappear forever?


    ?


    ?


    ?


    ?


    381: Tonbo


    It’s been about three hours since Mare-san defeated the boss, right?


    Around that time, the next one should respawn.


    382: Shiitake


    Are you saying that calmly? What’s wrong with that guy?


    383: Kouki


    Is that guy Jack the Ripper? But he was barehanded, right?


    384: Crack


    What happened?


    385: Takuma


    While wandering around the area where the boss was, suddenly, a monster I’d never seen before appeared, and we got wiped out.


    It might be a new boss. I don’t know which one is stronger between the previous boss and this one. Both fights were one-sided.


    386: Saint Riegan


    For now, it seems that the dungeon won’t disappear, so that’s a relief.


    After defeating the boss, does a new boss appear?

    ?


    ?


    892: King J


    Has the spawning been bettertely? Feels like the efficiency has increased.


    893: Suama


    Yeah, that’s true.


    At first, you wouldn’t encounter anything until you went deep, but recently, even weak goblins appear in shallow areas.


    If you go deeper, you encounter more formidable enemies. Did they make adjustments?


    894: King of Fuji


    Adjustments, huh?


    So, was that a bug after all?


    895: Suama


    Did you find a bug?


    No one has found one until now, but there’s a rumor that you’ll receive rewards if you report a bug.


    896: King J


    Why is it bing a rumor when no one has found it?


    897: King of Fuji


    Well, I saw goblins attacking each other.


    After that, they quickly surrounded me with other allies and beat me to death.


    I wonder if it was a bug behavior.


    898: Suama


    Oh.


    It’s kind of subtle whether it’s a bug or not.


    If goblins from another cave or something wandered in, it wouldn’t be strange, right? Apparently, that happens sometimes with real wild animal herds.


    899: King J


    Possible.


    They tend to intricately mimic real things here in this management.


    900: King of Fuji


    Now that you mention it, those goblins did seem a bit different in atmosphere.


    Well, I can’t really tell them apart, so it’s just a guess.


    901: Suama


    Just to be safe, should you report it?


    902: King of Fuji


    Nah, it’s fine.


    I haven’t seen it since then, and if it’s a feature, I’d just embarrass myself.


    903: King J


    Is it really that embarrassing?


    904: Suama


    The border of shame is different for everyone.

    【Wells】Dungeon Clearing Report Thread


    ?


    ?


    ?


    ?


    2011: Farm


    I’ve seen that. It’s a damn huge pack of wolves. They don’t attack outright, but if you initiate an attack, they counter, and you’re wiped out for sure.


    2012: Monmon


    They’re also fighting the dungeon monsters, right? It feels like they’re more hunting in the dungeon than engaging in a real fight.


    2013: Hasera


    Is that their ecology? Are there only sightings in Wells?


    2014: Monmon


    For now, yeah. They have colorful fur, cool visuals, and yers who wanted to pet them charged in and suffered casualties.


    2015: Farm


    If anything, the victims are probably the wolves.


    2016: Beam-chan


    In any case, they’re special enemies. Old Hiers seems to have many special dungeons, but in the case of Wells, it’s these roaming wolf monsters that stand out.


    2017: Monmon


    Dogs… Roaming… Legendary… My head hurts.


    2018: Farm


    At least I’ve confirmed the Fire type. I’ve been burned by a red-furred wolf before.


    2019: Hasera


    What about Water type?


    2020: Beam-chan


    There was a light blue one, but I don’t know if it’s Water type.
