Chapter 7 - Seven

"I'm sorry those are my fish and I also believe that is my question. How can I help you," asks NoobainK¥NG? Ralph has pulled his pants up to his knees and is feeling under the water for how the rocks are placed. He keeps shaking his head obviously unable to figure something out.

"Yes, I can help you. Even reward you. You must tell us and show us. Yes, that is the only way. Tell me, teach me please." says Ralph all the while rubbing the stone feeling the flow of the water and stumbling across his basket weave.

NoobainK¥NG wants that reward it is an upgraded job. Instead of level one it a level two. Instead of a technician, he will be a designer. ralph is a master engineer with no speciality. This is important for the dynamic class. NoobainK¥NG goes through his thought process with Ralph. Explain in detail the weave and the enclosure. HE saves the herb for when Ralph asks questions.

Ralph hands him a path token. It is a round coin-like base. He has to collect seven others to make a Cardinal token. Cardinal token is how the Guild 'New Odour' rose to power. The secret they undercovered three years into the game. Is that if a player on the first day they play. Goes about and does the basic quest of at least seven jobs they can earn a Cardinal Token. This is critical for any player as long term is important. If a player only uses a normal path token with only one job. They are locked into that single growth path. With no way to diversify once they hit level one hundred.

It was also later refined that the seven jobs have to be four related occupation and three electives. The really interesting thing is that the first four job slots could also be slotted with a class rather than a job. NoobainK¥NG never invested in this too much Cardinal is too wide but at least for what he wants to do, he has a decent understanding. Many players in his old life spent many nights talking about what and how they would change their classes if it was possible. It is also why players who joined in the fifth year. Were generally a lot more power because they had access to this information freely.

The reason is that unlike normal games in Cardinal, an enchanter has to know Jewellery, Carving, Spellweaving and some kind of magic if one want to enchant items for example. Cardinal being Cardinal a crazy player called Uill. Decided he wanted to enchant humans, so he experimented with several jobs variations and found that if he took the enchanter path and connected it with a spell weaver. He produced a variant base. He then took this base to combine it with a tattoo job and his chosen magic was lightning. At first, this didn't work but once he complimented his tattoo job with a magic scribe and magic formations he was able to almost get a working human enchantment. NoobainK¥NG doesn't know the last piece of the puzzle but he figured he had to either add an artisan type job or some form of flesh jobs like medic or butcher.

With this done he looks at his token a little disappointed. If he had even fifty people with he could have made a massive enclosure. He has had this nagging feeling since the goblin event was announced a month early. He wants to win the game. He can win the game alone he knows that, but that is no good. What he knows is that the final mission is a test to start the Cardinal. He needs to save his family and friends. He also wants to continue to live a good life and that means people. In fact, it is the fourth-worst thing to happen to him. He chucks the token into the lake and logs off.

Samuels goes to his computer. Typing in names of strong players. Out of the fifty twenty of them are streamers. He sends them all fifty the method for Arch classes in case they haven't seen it yet. Then he sends them a message saying 'that he will be logging by at eight this evening and would like to meet if they are human and are in the Holy Land. He is expanding his plans to encompass as many people as possible. He knows that some will take advantage if not most but there will be those who follow him for real.

Samuel also sends Delphine another message asking for a film crew. To help spread his message, with her help he believes he can create a small movement. Plus the strong people will take advantage making them stronger too. In his mind, it is already done he plans how to turn the goblin event into an opportunity for humanity.

Time flies by with his mom, his sister is already in the game. Together he helps her set up a streaming channel. He also leaves her detailed instructions on the Slaanger. She has always wanted to live by the ocean so living in the ocean is much better. Also, she is a new thread of his plan that will make some waves in the Slaanger community.

As a Slaanger she will have access to areas, minerals and techniques that will show why cooperation between the racist important. His idea with her is simple in that she will pout level every one on her own. By securing a levelling raid site. These raid sites are the primary most Slannger will level because the oceans are too dangerous. Due to the lack of knowledge, most are trying to explore the Dying Reef which is the first major zone outside. Lantia the beginner city for Slaanger.

Athena has sent him a message to which he replies. She will be responsible for the Aziza part. He wanted to refuse her because she will bring the old crew. He didn't want to stress them anymore. Still, he can stop this feeling in his gut. Time shouldn't have changed so much. HE only sent back his memories and yet things are completely different already. He rereads Edgars' note he then runs it through a scanner and uses the old cypher. It only just occurred to him that this is something they used to do. There is only one word written there.

"Impi"

Samuels says, "That's impossible..." A strong wad of sweat appears on his brow. His body shivers in terror and deep down a tinge of excitement. "I really do think too small don't I Edgar?" Impi is the strongest battle based Cardinal. Where his sage is centred around magic, Impi is built for battle. Samuels immediate thought is that it's too late for him. However, if Athena can find the Sky Goddess she could become and the Impi. Samuels's tongue tingles how could Edgar know about a class that even he only knows the legends of. The only reason they didn't have the Impi at the final battle is the first requirement. A living Gods blessing, he rubs the sweat off the back of his neck. He knows it's possible but what's more possible is to also give his mom a Cardinal class.

He makes his list of things to do in-game. To be followed by the masses in the next five days he needs to become a top-ranked player. On top of that, he is going to get Delphine to promote his forum more by releasing more information. The Cardinal classes problem is the only bug. Of the nine classes, he knows four can be found right now. One he has, the second will go to Athena after she finds the Sky Goddes. Samuel doesn't doubt she can do it. He just has to find a way to tempt her into following his plan. Athena is a better schemer than him but has an absolute rule about a separation between player and character. This means that Athena the player. Is happy to talk about the game to him as Samuel, but she will not do something outside her in-game characters set parameters. He can only click his tongue at the moment. His mother is the key to the Slaanger players. He writes a guide and takes out his father's journal. He is going to make sure she is happy to play Slaanger by reminding her of his father dream to travel the oceans.

Dragon Lake outer region close to the Blighted forest. Athena is reading a message from her old manager. He has agreed to her terms and making the arrangements for Amma and Frigg to join her. Athena is going to choose the most violent option for now. As the holder of the book of souls, she needs to kill one thousand humans to purify the book of souls. Over the next ten days, she will become a mythic boss in the blighted forest.

Athena knows Samuel is planning something huge. The last time she felt like this was when they were contracted to opposing factions in the game Herolds of Trifrost.

Terri has been going through the forums looking for the man that fucked her plans. Her sister has given her the two days she has to spend outside the game. To find the person who did this to her.
