The Power of Haven
The Power of HavenSystem Announcement:The Treasure Hunt Special Event will commence in: 23:14:53All qualified participants will be invited at the allotted time. Those within the territory of a Pylon will be able to enter together, while any not within a Pylon’s territory will enter as individuals by default.Neil, Christen, Eleanor, Silas, and Levi were all chatting in the room, waiting for the rest to arrive. It was right next to the newly expanded City Lord’s office, where a large meeting hall had been made, primarily for this day. The five of them had all gotten the notification about the Treasure Hunt along with every other D-grade in the city. Likely across the globe."Gotta say, Miranda ain’t a slouch either," Levi commented as they chatted about the other D-grades from Haven who would join the Treasure Hunt."You totally got a crush on her," Christen teased the man, who had made similar comments many times before during their hunting trips."No, I’m simply acknowledging real
Treasure Hunt? Let's Fucking Go!
Treasure Hunt? Let's Fucking Go!Man, people can get so tense sometimes, Jake thought as all the people looked his way. Most of them even had their weapons drawn! Even Neil and his party looked on the edge, and only Sultan and Arnold were rather unaffected by the entire situation. Well, Arnold did look up from his tablet, frown briefly, and just look back down.Miranda threw him a glance he couldn’t quite read, but he did get the faint feeling that he should maybe tone it down a little. He did so, and as if timed, Miranda spoke, "Lord Thayne, thank you for finding time to be here."Jake just nodded her way as he stopped infusing his presence with mana. That took the pressure off of them, but all of those independents were still looking at him with fright. And honestly? He was okay with that. He scanned them all and found that not a single one of them was above 115. Not a single one of them was a threat. What did this also mean?This meant the baby bird on his shoulder was likely the
Treasure Hunt: A World of Mist
Treasure Hunt: A World of MistMist rolled over the hills as the vast, open plains that were otherwise desolate suddenly saw movement. First, a figure appeared, a hawk still on his shoulder. Another person appeared a second later, and within two minutes, over fifty people stood there.Jake saw Miranda had entered with both the slave woman and the thief. He wasn’t sure what she had done, but both seemed to be under her charge for now. As far as he could tell, it wasn’t any kind of slave contract or something like that, but there clearly was some kind of control involved. But, ultimately, it wasn’t something he bothered dealing with.The Treasure Hunt was far more important.He noted they were currently within a transparent bubble of sorts, and would likely stay there until everyone had entered the Treasure Hunt. While the others were talking, Jake decided to spend this time more efficiently by testing some things. The first of which was his divine connection.Jake felt inward, and whil
Treasure Hunt: No Flying Too High
Treasure Hunt: No Flying Too HighJake sprinted through the mist, Sylphie flying along with him. His Sphere of Perception was a bit over three hundred meters in radius as he scanned the area at the ground level, even scanning to see if anything was hidden beneath. With his eyes, he scouted the area ahead, seeing movement here and there within the mist. There were incredibly subtle shifts in the background, with patches of mist not moving as uniformly as the rest, or swaying in a too-predictable pattern.Yet, he wasn’t exactly aware of what lurked within. There were clearly some invisible creatures, and they were hiding from not only his eyes but his other senses too. None had entered his sphere, either, but seemed to keep a very healthy distance. He didn’t doubt they were aware he had seen them.Not simple beasts, he thought. On the contrary, they were careful and calculating. Smart… but not smart enough to avoid Jake’s curiosity.He threw Sylphie a glance, and she seemed to get it as
Treasure Hunt: Fire & Ash
Treasure Hunt: Fire & Ash"I fucking hate curses," Jake muttered out loud as he got up.It had taken nearly an hour to fully eliminate the energies in his body, and he had only been up in those dark clouds for a minute or two. Shit, he had even lost over a thousand health during the process. When he imagined what was further up, he shuddered.Seeing that traveling up the side of the mountain wasn’t an option, he went for just traveling inside it. Before that, however, he took all the plant boxes on the balcony into the inventory. None of them gave off any special aura, but they were made out of some kind of metal, so he reckoned they could prove useful. Also… the storage given seemed borderline infinite, so why not just swipe anything you could?Walking up the entrance of the mountain, he inspected the large black gate. He frowned a bit as he put his hand on it. He noticed how it almost seemed to reject him, and when he tried to pour in a bit of mana to inspect what it was made of, it
Treasure Hunt: History Lesson
Treasure Hunt: History LessonJake searched his inventory and found a stone chair he had swiped before. He summoned it and sat back as he listened to the projection talk. This wasn’t a case like in the Undergrowth dungeon and that Altmar elf. This was just a recording—nothing more, nothing less."This place is—or perhaps was—once called Yalsten. We were always a small, secluded world with few exits or entrances. For many years it was a paradise. A place of study and learning, free of war and conflict. A united people under the banner of the creator. We cultivated resources, trained fighters, and did as we were commanded. But, alas, this would not last."The creator was known as Yal, and the world was named after him. A mighty A-grade on the crux of advancement. Yet time was coming for him. He sought to advance but found himself unable. He sought power but faltered. Do not misunderstand; I do respect the creator for making this world… but I have long been disillusioned towards his pers
Treasure Hunt: Armor of Mist
Treasure Hunt: Armor of MistOne man’s trash is another man’s treasure. Many would say that in a Treasure Hunt with high-rarity items spread throughout a large area, one should not stay in a single place for a prolonged period to procure things that didn’t even count as items. Most would argue that was a waste of time. But to Jake, the true treasure was not the huge metal gate; it was the sense of victory he got when the first door finally fell off the hinges and slammed into the ground, making the entire archive shake and lifting all the ash off the ground for a brief moment.Totally worth it, Jake thought as he put the huge thing in his inventory. Swiftly he moved on to the next door and spent another half an hour slowly burning away at the hinge. Was this truly worth the metal of the door? Maybe. Jake really didn’t know, as he was quite clueless when it came to metals. He had just decided he wanted the metal, so he got the metal.All arguments for it not being worth it were swiftly
Treasure Hunt: The Girl & The Hawk
Treasure Hunt: The Girl & The HawkCarmen sprinted through the mist-filled halls, smashing down any damn ghoul in the way. It reminded her a bit of the good old days of the tutorial, where she’d smashed zombies day in and day out. She snickered as she turned another corner. Before the waiting ghoul could react, she dropkicked it square in the face, smashing its head between her heavy boots and the wall. She identified the undead-like thing with an oddly squishy head as she leaped back and landed on the ground.[Vampiric Ghoul Thrall – lvl 114]Even without its head, it kept swinging. She launched into a barrage of fists before she finally put it down for good, its body utterly pummelled apart within a few seconds. They were kind of durable, but her attacks were far from simple. Every single hit sent waves of destructive kinetic energy through her foes, destroying them from the inside.Without slowing down, Carmen kept sprinting forward. She had entered this Treasure Hunt alone and wou
Treasure Hunt: Viscount & Count
Treasure Hunt: Viscount & CountSylphie had a lot of things she liked. She liked tasty things, her mom and dad, Uncle, biggest bird Stormild, shiny things, whooshing stuff, tasty things, whacking stuff. Oh, and tasty things. As for things she didn’t like? Those were there too.She didn’t like all kinds of bad guys. Eagles were baddies, that was for sure. Anyone Uncle didn’t like were bad also. Oh, and those bad monkey things that kept throwing around smelly stuff. Those were also super baddies for sure.Now she had found something else to add to the list: smelly vampire things. No, two things. The vampire things that were kinda dead and smelly were annoying, and she didn’t like them, but she was strong, so that was fine. But then the big vampire thing came. It looked totally like a human was not just annoying but also dangerous. She really didn’t like that Vampire Vi-something thing.The bad vampire’s eyes were entirely red; its body looked a lot like Uncle’s but was taller and super
Treasure Hunt: Annoying Boss Fight
Treasure Hunt: Annoying Boss FightThe Count was truly a peculiar creature. He moved and acted like a fully intelligent and relatively competent fighter. It nearly fooled Jake into believing that he was fighting a smart enemy and not an absolute moron. However, the illusion was dispelled every time the Count opened his mouth."This is the part where you fall down and bleed to death!" the vampire yelled as he fired out a crimson wave of energy.Jake dodged it easily, taking far more mental damage than physical from the exchange. The red glowing aura was still there, with the four clawed hands constantly trying to get hold of him. All in all, Jake would call the current attack pattern of the vampire more annoying than dangerous.And yes, he would call the way the vampire attacked an attack pattern, as he could easily predict the next moves. He didn’t even need his sphere or Bloodline.Teleport. Jake stepped away, dodging the blade that appeared from the red mist as the Count of Blood te
