Chapter 261: Underground training center and fishing invitation
After finishing lunch, we log into the game and talk about the event together. First of all, Ruin-san asks me.
"You're not participating in the event, are you, Takuto-kun?"
"There's no point in participating, you know"
Eh
Lily and the others look disappointed, but dueling doesn't have a good image in the first place. Give up.
"This event has a lot of hidden agendas from the admins"
"Yeah. In addition to hunting for newbies, they're also encouraging assassinations"
"Assassination?"
The conversation between Yoichi-san and Mangetsu-san brought up some ominous words. And then Arleigh explains it to me.
"Assassination is the act of deliberately placing a player in a low position in a ranking event and at the end of the event, the player will score high points to overtake the leader"
Hee. It's an act of letting your guard down and then kicking it off at once. But if it's a strategy, it can't be wrong. The two of them explained again.
"This time, players with higher ranks can't refuse duels from players with lower ranks. They are inevitably leading to assassinations"
"There is a way to avoid logging in, but the risk of assassination is still high. As a result, you'll have to keep winning against players of the same rank or higher"
It's severe, but I guess that's the way it should be. Then Risa asks me.
"Does Nii-chan know what professions or combinations are advantageous in solo and tag team?"
"I don't have any data, so I don't know. In my opinion, there is no such thing as a solo or tag team advantage"
Even I can fight in melee. You can't have an advantage and disadvantage at the same time.
"Still, aren't there professions you care about?"
Mel asked me and I answered honestly.This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com
"Well, yeah. I'm thinking that ninja might be a good choice"
Ninja lacks strength and defense, but has the best speed of all classes, long range attacks with ninjutsu and entanglement techniques.
It would be troublesome to turn it into an enemy. I know what a nuisance it can be when I fought Karasuma Tengu.
"Indeed...how about a combination of tags?"
"That would be a match made in heaven"
It's a good idea to have a ninja-only speedy party that's strong against one-hit killers like mages and archers, but not good against balance types like knights or self-healing, self-reinforcing fighters.
Balance types will be weak against power types like heavy warriors and power types will be weak against one-hit kill types.
The key will be what strategy to use to clear these advantages and disadvantages.
Then Rook asks me.
"What will happen to a summoner?"
"Well, summoners will be the first to be targeted without having to deal with them"
"That's right...what should we do?"
Then Tyrol drops a bomb.
"Who would you team up with, Takuto-san?"
The girls are super responsive. But if I were to team up, my answer would be obvious.
"I think it would be Ix"
Eh~!?
"You're right. Master"
As everyone is surprised, Chiffon says.
"I thought you were going to team up with Lily-chan or Ion-chan"
I'm sure that's what most people would think.
"I can fight with Lily and the others, but with the rules this time, the wave motion system and dragonification are at a disadvantage. But Ix can use her special moves as many times as she wants and her equipment is well balanced"
The players were convinced. Lily and the others couldn't possibly be convinced.
I didn't dare to tell them this, but Ix has the link skill that allows her to read my thoughts and copy my swordsmanship.
That's what made me think that Ix was the best choice. Well, I can't participate anyway.
Then Mel muttered.
"We need to actually duel and try things out"
It's true, you can't know everything until you try it.
"Why don't you make a duel facility anyway? We have the space in the basement"
"Eh!? Is it okay!?"
"Isn't that a good idea? I'm sure there will be more events like this in the future, so I think it's a good idea to build one while we still have time"
So it was decided to build a dueling facility in the basement.
Start creating immediately. The first thing we did was to make a floor plan and gather everyone's opinions. I asked them to keep the place where Sephone had been.
After that, Ruin and the others took the lead in creating the building based on the completed plans. For the time being, the four sides were completed, but after looking at them, Ruin said,
"We've gone too far..."
"Well, when you hear about a duel field, it's almost like this, right?"
I said this as a follow-up, but it looked exactly like the anime battlefield I saw when I was a kid.
Well, it's nice to fight on a field from an old anime. Mel and the others immediately tried to use it.
"Takuto! Lily wants to try it too!"
"I want to try it too, but I don't have a weapon"
