I awoke to the beautiful scenery of a giant humanoid bug laying on me. Asi and Dice don't need to sleep due to their races. So they really had some time to kill last night. They decided to follow my lead and prevent PKs, what good little children.
Since I don't need sleep either, I can log out into the Main Hub while my charector sleeps. I did some research about a few things, and took a look at some of my old notes.
Anyways, I checked on the two sleeping next door. Arch hasn't arrived yet... so why are they gone?
Hang on, I'll send him a message...
...
Oh, so they aren't with him. That's cool totally fine. Ah shit. Who am I kidding? This isn't good.
What if they get kidnapped or something? I say kidnapped, but in reality it's just because their low levels hanging around high levels. Some people hold low levels hostage from their high level friends for money.
Not like I know anything like that.
Actually they probably just ran off, and I'm over reacting. Horizon seems like the person to do that.
Dice - " Master, are you looking for those two girls we met yesterday? "
Me - " Yes, quite frivolously... do you know where they might of went? "
Asi - " Oh, Arch came and picked them up. "
Me - " Huh? But I just messaged Arch, he said he hasn't come yet. "
Asi - " I assure you, Arch was here. "
Me - " I'll message him again then. "
...
No, he really hasn't picked them up then.
How? Did someone impersonate him?
Ugh, why didn't I add those two, we wouldn't be in this situation.
But Arch had them added!
...
- Arch, message your friends for mthere is an imposter of you who took them. -
...
- Cobalt, I don't know what your talking about. They say they are with you. -
...
Wait, so... huh?
Ok ok ok.
So, maybe it's something like this :
The two snuck out -> Asi/Dice saw them
They impersonated Arch -> Asi/Dice says it's arch.
Why?
...
- Arch, they aren't with me... but I think they actually impersonated you to get away from me... idk why though. -
...
- Yeah, they would do that. They really don't like staying with strangers for too long. -
...
Ok, so I just let this play out then.
Alright...
Well that was a side quest. Holy shit.
I don't understand why they don't like strangers... did something happen to them? Whatever, not my problem for now.
If it turns out they are in actual danger I'll help, but I won't think about this any longer.
I'm going back to the Ant Hill, got to get some more Carapaces. Hopefully to make my " Hover board " Bigger.
By the way, as shameful to admit it. It's not actually a hover board. I may of given that away from me hitting quartz with it. But in reality it's a floating egg I sit on.
I'm going to make it into a hover car, this will give me some more comfort while driving, increase space, and increase the speed. Someone actually made something similar on the forums.
It wasn't a mount, though. He put air magic into a Crystal on a Hammer, increased the attack speed by quite a bit. I'm thinking I could do the same, but for my gun. Maybe add some fire to the Blood Bullets. Or wind to the barrel to make it shoot faster.
Anyways, to the dungeon we go.
No need for the god spot this time though. I'll be taking them head on.
I'll have Dice and Asi just attack normally. I'll shoot anyone who threatens their cleave through the enemies.
...
We have arrived! It looks like Dice is excited. Maybe he has a vendetta?
I don't know, but maybe it's cause he was a centipede. Maybe they are in a prey or predator relationship. And now I've given man kind intelligence, fucking up the food chain. Or not, if centipedes are predators of ants.
Pretty good analogy about humans and such right? I'm pretty smart.
Hee hoo I just learned to throw rock. I'm the dominant life form now.
Anyways, we won't be needing any juice to sneak in, where going full Guts and Glory in here! Hahaha!
Hey, there is quite alot less then I remember being here before. Oh shit I might be actually fucking up ecosystems. Well, for the NPCs it's fine... for now I guess. I mean spawns ridiculously fast. So taking out predators won't affect the ecosystem to bad... but how has no one done that before? It's years!
Alright, I'll stop at 5% of the species left at least... as long as their is two males and a queen they can regrow, so whatever.
We have been Ripping through these bugs for quite a bit, of course levels aren't a priority. I only need a few large Carapaces, but it's a rare drop.
...
Ok, now there is so very few ants I can't find anymore through this whole place, and those that I find just run from me! What gives?
Whatever, I'll just make do with this.

Master has taken us to the AntHill, it's here I was tormented for my earlier life... but now I have been reborn!
I will Rip, Tear, and Kill all those who once stood over me, and with Master with me...
I won't be stopped, untill it is done.
It's all thanks to master that I can purge the filth from this world... I will never let anything come near master as long as I exist!
Asi can stay... for now...

Master has taken us to hunt some insects for their Carapace... I heard him monologuing about making... a Care?
Is that it? Doesn't matter... being with Master and Dice is very enjoyable, and I do love practicing my Magic. It's a really nice experience for me and my growth.
It hasn't been too long since master created me, but it seems we grow ever closer.

( Ant Queen POV )
Not again... they are back!!!
The prophet fortold this, but we weren't ready! How could we prepare against an invincible target! It's almost a sign that the Gods have given up on us, the being that eradicated us return as a Devil.
We will all be eradicated at this rate... I can almost see those devil's smiles as they crush my children in front of me.
My race will not survive... but there is a chance.
The Devil has taken a Cultipede child and raised it... he might be foolish enough to raise my off spring... or maybe he can be negotiated with... but only the prophet knows the devil's language.
Ant Soldier - " He's getting closer your highness! We must run! "
Ant Queen - " No, we will stand our ground. Order the Worker ants to carry out the eggs and run, but leave one behind. I have a plan. "
Ant Soldier - " Yes, your Highness. "

Well, I found a big ass wooden door. it's got a small hole in it... I'll have Dice scout ahead.
...
Oh, he's back.
Me - " So, what's in there? "
Dice - " Nothing of your notice, my lord. Few ants resided inside, and I slayed them. They only dropped small Carapaces... not worth noting. "
Me - " I see. Thanks. I think it's best we leave now... there's nothing left. "
....
...
..
And... car complete! Just took a little bit. I already had my Hover board to use as a engine. So I just made a base with outputs of air. And then made some windows with neat Alchemy Techniques.
I used some sand I found, and just used alchemy to turn it into glass.
Anyways, it's a pretty nice vehicle... looks kinda like a tan, flying Jeep.
I should buy some paint, make it red or black or something. I like tan, but only in moderate amounts.
Also, the inside is a bit uncomfortable. I could hunt some sort of beast for a leather interior.
System, register this as a mount.
- Confirmed -
- Alchemy Hover Car -
- 670% Speed -
- Special: Overdrive -
Oh, special thing? Neat.
By the name, I assume it boosts it's speed temporarily.
I won't bother to look at it. Because right now, I'm going to be driving off into the sunset.
