Rebirth Of The Gaming God 3 Underground Secret Of The Clad Village Part 01

"Are you feeling well now?", his mom worriedly asks.

"I'm okay mom, I'll go to school today," Zeek said.

"Then eat your breakfast before leaving, I leave it here in the table", Zeek's mom said before leaving.

Zeek took his breakfast, showered, and prepared his things and waited for the school bus to arrive.

after climbing the bus he looked at the faces of his schoolmates searching for someone that he might know.

"Zeek!, Here!", Grid shouted.

Zeek ran towards Grid and asked.

"What level are you and what race?" Zeek asked

"I picked Elf and my job is a hunter, Level 7, What about you?", Grid proudly said.

"Human, Thief, Level 12," Zeek said.

"Seriously!?"Grid shouted, and all the kids in the bus glare at him.

"Shhh. . . lower your voice!" Zeek scolded Grid.

"How could you level that fast?" Grid asked

"Try to talk to all the NPC's and if your lucky, you can unlock the hidden quest". Zeek guided Grid from the whole process of his hidden quest.

"That's just too hard, so you're the one who finished Frost Flame !?, and you did it all by yourself?" Grid was astonished on Zeek's achievements, he can't believe G.o.ds Realm is his first game.

"Try to get it first, I think that the hidden quest can only be acquired once", Zeek explained.

Grid nodded his head.

The two arrived at the school, the two didn't even try to study, they just started researching for guides about the game's first 8 hours. at recess they talk to each other regarding the dungeons and strategies that they can use. after school, the two decided to walk home while talking with each other.

"Oh, I almost forgot, The official website release the full map and drop items guide for the Trial of the Forrest, a 5 man Dungeon in the game available at level 10, but the normal mobs and bosses are level 15 and up, do you think we can finish it if we try?", Grid said.

"I'll need to finish my quest first and you need to see if you can get the hidden quest", let's think about it after we are done in our quest", Zeek answered.

Time pa.s.sed and the two decided to go home, Zeek connected his VR helm on PC and laid in his bed, pushed the power b.u.t.ton and logged in to the game.

System: Welcome Back, do you want to proceed to log in to G.o.ds Realm?

"Yes"

After Logging in Zeek checked his inventory for the Underground Map Level 1 quest item, later that day Zeek checked the forums for information regarding the Underground Map but didn't see anything.

"I'll make some money first before venturing to the Underground Map", Zeek entered the auction house and scrolled for items that he thinks are valuable, then suddenly he heard a commotion outside".

"Stop selling those cheap potions here! these things are worthless!" a huge man with leather armor shouting on a young lady.

"I... I'm sorry" said the girl while picking his merchandise one by one.

Zeek picked one up and checked on its stats.

Flower Remedy's Vitality Potion - Earth (Novice)

Restores +20 HP for 10 seconds

Elemental Defense +10% for 10 seconds

"These Potions are awesome! Young Lady, how much for this potion?", Zeek asked the young lady still picking up some of his merchandise.

"5 copper coins sir, but if you buy in bulk I can give it to you for 3 copper each" the young lady answered.

"This is so cheap, you're what they called a Lifestyle player, am I right?"Zeek asked.

"Yes, I really don't have any idea in online games but my friends told me that I can make money out of this if I can become a Lifestyle Player in a game, they said that guilds give out monthly salary if I'm Lucky enough to find a guild, but with my skills. . . I don't know if a guild would want a Brewer like me". Flower Remedy said sadly.

"You need money right?"

Flower Remedy nodded.

"Then let's talk in private",

Flower Remedy's face was shocked.

"Mi. . . Mister, I need money but I don't do those kinds of things, I just want to sell my potions nothing more, nothing less".

"T...That's not what I mean! you silly kid lets talked privately because were chatting in the middle of the street!"

"Kid?, Ohh. . . I'm sorry"

The two sat near the restaurant and started to talk.

"First, I need all of the potions with Earth Attributes, I'll buy them all, second, I want you to work for me". Zeek said.

"Work for you, sir?"

"Yes I'll give you 10 gold for a month, just your starting salary, and I'll give you 30% of the profits if I sold them to the auction house, what do you think?"

"10 gold!?, sir I only Brew potions, 10 gold is just too much, are you sure about this?"

"Don't worry, I'm planning to work you for 8 hours a day". I just want you to Brew as many potions as you can starting today. I'll give you an additional 5 gold so you buy all the ingredients that you may need to brew them."

Zeek traded her the money and Flower Remedy Gave him all the potions that he brewed.

"Thank you, sir, Thank you for giving me this opportunity" Flower Remedy happily bowed her head

"I'll add you up if you need something just PM me, understood?"

Zeek thought about the 5 man dungeon that recently opened, the monster with earth element is surely roaming inside of that dungeon, the potion that he bought with 10% additional def in earth element will be handy.

Zeek knows how important potions with elemental defense can be, after playing for so long he understands that these kinds of potions are a must if you want to finish or conquer a place easily, after sorting everything out, selling all items that he picked while hunting Vagabond Wolfs he profited 5 gold and 72 silver in the transactions, he auctioned the [Frost Staff] and the [Ice Crystal Necklace] that he picked from the Ice Imp Leader. after the auction, he profited 52 gold from [Frost Staff] and 27 gold from [Ice Crystal Necklace]. He then clicked the Underground Map and a system appeared.

System: The Underground Map is unreadable, please identify the map first before using it.

Zeek walked to the Item Identification Hall inside of the City Hall and approached one of the tellers.

"Can you please Identify this Item for me?"

A young man with gla.s.ses hurriedly turned his chair while organizing some of the papers on the floor.

"I'm sorry, my Name is Cony, Can I see the Item that you want us to Identify sir".

Zeek gave Cony the map.

"Hmm. This is a valuable map, there is only a 70% success rate in identifying this map, do you want to proceed?".

"Please Proceed", Zeek answered.

A blinding white light enveloped Cony's hand and as he touched the piece of parchment that light slowly transferred to the object after the light covered the whole parchment a notice suddenly appeared in front of Zeek.

System: Congratulations on successfully identifying the Underground Map.

Cony gave the map to Zeek and another System appeared in front of him

System: You got Underground Map Level 1 [ Silver Rank ]

Zeek clicked the item and a red path appeared in his minimap, suddenly a call appeared in his game menu.

"Undying Flame?",

Zeek answered the call.

"Zeek, it's me, Grid, I received the hidden quest, you're right about the NPC's in the town, but I only got 8/10 out of them, but the quest is different, I only need to kill the Forest of Lies Boss and clear the dungeon".

"I think the quest's difficulty varies depending on your score". Zeek a.n.a.lyzed.

"I think so too, I finished it and acquired some good items on it so I think it's okay, by the way, what are you up too."

"I'm planning to go to the Underground Map, do you want to come?"

"Give me an hour, Let's meet at the city gate," Grid said

"Just use the teleportation portal" Zeek argued

"Portals cost 2 gold! are you insane!?"Grid said

"I'll send you money and just use the portal," Zeek said.

After Grid received the money he used the portal and arrived at Clad Town, Grid then PM'ed Zeek.

"Zeek, I'm here, where should we meet?"

"I'll add you up" Zeek replied

A notification appeared on Grid.

System: Endless invited you to form a party, would you accept?

"Yes"

As soon as the party was created Grid checked his map to see the location of Zeek and followed it.

"So where are we going?" Grid asked

"The map indicates that the hidden dungeon is north of Clad Village, let's just follow the direction the maps lead and see for our self". Zeek answered.

The two ventured deep in the forest north of Clad village, after walking for 10 minutes they arrived in the foot of the mountain.

"It's here. X marks this spot." Zeek said.

"What now? Dig and search for the entrance?" Grid said.

as Zeek walked near the foot of the mountain he suddenly heard a loud voice.

"Who dares to come in my territory!?"

Suddenly the surface of the mountain started to move, and a Golem 12 feet tall appeared in front of them, Grid used Detection to see the Golems stats.

[ Rock Guardian Level 15 ]

Element: Earth

Race: Brute

Size: Large

"Zeek I'm only level 10 with white equipment set, this guy is level 15, I know this is a game but I still don't want to die, "Grid said

Zeek remembered the potion that he received from Flower Remedy, he gave some to Grid via trade window.

"Do you have any skill that has wind element on it" Zeek questioned Grid.

"I have two, Wind Shot and Arial Shot" Grid answered.

"Use it and start attacking, I'll try to tank it," Zeek said.

Zeek started to lure the Rock Guardian and because Zeek doesn't have enough skill and just relied on normal attacks the battle lasted for 40 minutes.

System: Congratulations Player Endless, you are the first to finish the Frost Flame Cavern, The system will record your accomplishments to the G.o.ds Tablet. Do you want to show your name?

"Let's hide are named for know, will have a problem if our names suddenly spread on the guilds of this game, "Zeek said to Grid.

"Guild can be tough sometimes, they want to hog the glory for themselves and don't want independent players achieving these kinds of things, so hiding our names is good for me, I don't want problems in the future," Grid said.

"Please hide it" Zeek answered the system notification

Regional System: Congratulations on Player ***** for receiving the first kill of the Rock Guardian, System Reward: 150,000 exp, 20 Gold, 200 Clad Village Reputation.

Light suddenly enveloped both Zeek and Grid,

System: Congratulations you became Level 13. Skill Point +1

"These potions are great! where did you get it?" Grid asked.

"A friend of mine can craft these things so I have enough to spare on us both"Zeek said

"Let's loot the boss" Grid said

Zeek approached the carca.s.s of the Rock Guardian and looted the items.

They looted 1 Blue Item, 3 white items, and 4 materials.

Zeek saw a shining object on the Rock Guardians chest.

System: You acquired Key Item [ Power Crystal]

Zeek then examined the place where the Rock Guardian appeared and saw a door carved with Aztec like drawings, he placed the power crystal on the top of the drawing of two people raising there hands in a drawing of an altar.

"What now?" Grid asked

Suddenly the rocks begin to move sideways opening a dark path.

"So this is the secret dungeon?" Zeek asked

"This is an instance dungeon Zeek, a 5 man dungeon," Grid said.

"Let's try it out first" Zeek Said.
