A Certain Middle-aged Man’s VRMMO Activity Log

Chapter 61.5



Challenge from the Dead Thread No. 59

362:Theres been an increase in the defeat of the solo-only Secret Boss,ne.

363:Suck it up and plunge through the middle of all the traps and if your luck is good enough, youll make it somehow it was seriously all up to luck, though.

364:If its someone with Wind Magic or a Wind Fairy then they might be able to get through the dungeon kind of easy,ne.

365:You could use brute force with just enough luck to solo,naa.

366:So is it decided that what the analytical group people said about the importance of going into the dungeon with party members is going to change?

367:Of course; Ive been properly looking into it myself.

368:If you struggle along, itll work itself outnaa

369: yeah, and the person who first defeated him even told us about its attack patterns

370:and then all you need to do is pin him down with attacks, let your Fairy attack, and hes instantly weakened,ne

371:He gets mad saying, You damn contractor!, but since hes weakened, its not scary at all.

372:yeah, once hes bombarded with Fairy attacks, his attack power, defense power, and speed all drop

373:And after that is just cooking him up, about

374:the path to get there is way harsher

375:but if you enter a 2 or more people party, the traps increase in an instant and you cant force your way through at all.

376:Without Thief and only good luck the only way you can get through is solo, looks like

377:If youre solo, then monsters that dont usually come out will also come out, like the Ogre Skeleton.

378:That guy, huh if youre alone winning should be pretty tough.

379:Even if it takes Fairy attacks, it doesnt weaken any, so its a lot scarier than the Skeleton Knight.

380:Its a good example that, even if its a boss, if you know its definite weaknesses theres nothing to be afraid of, the Knight I mean.

381:Thats true; is there no new Secrets discovered yet?

382:Maa, I expect theres ones that you dont have to fight solo

383:I heard the big guilds have 6 man parties reaching the 9th floor

384:Killing everything on the way?

385:Seems like, theyve been talking about how their Skills are going up and how their Fairies are also leveling up.

386:Challenging everything and dealing with traps even quicker is the problem,ne

387:Its probably not going to take that long to do, even with traveling in 6 man parties

388:Then all thats left is your luck with finding the stairs and a race with time.

389:That really is it if your luck is bad, you can just keep barely missing it

390:Since its a random dungeon, there really isnt anything you can do

391:yeah yeah, you cant do that thing where you prep ahead of time with walkthroughs,naa

392:Is there anyone here whos already taken Knight Sword?

393:not yet-

394:One-Handed Skill is still 48degozaru

395:Not yet,naa, though I want to try using it

396:Its probably something like an extra long Long Sword with a jewel?

397:>394, keep it up

398:Its like only a portion of people can use it,ne

399:Its supposed to be heavy, but I wonder exactly how heavy?

400:>399, compared to a steel-made longsword, about 1.4 times

401:Thats pretty heavy; I wonder how the power and reach are.

402:The power is 1.2 times, the reach is 1.3 times, about. Its just, because its longer, handling it is difficult.

403:So its not a huge increase in power; Im a little dejected

404:The power aside, when you see the reach its totally different; if youre the type that only looks for power, it might look awful to you.

405:>404, he probably just doesnt understand the fear of a long reach; dont worry about it.

406:Theres also the worry of difficulty in tight places youd have to use something else,naa

407:Crushing other Secret Bosses will probably unlock new weapons,ne?

408:Most likely the next will, so probably.

409:Im so excited, big guild guys, keep going

410:So were not thinking about clearing it ourselves huh? lol

411:No way I mean, 6 man party dungeons are full of MonHou, full of traps

412:I get how tough it is though,naa

413:Maa, if everyone does their best by themselves while hoping for everyone else to succeed, thats for the best,ne?

414:A- , thats true, thats for the best

415:Even before getting to the bottom your Skill Levels just keep going up, so making that your goal too is fine.

616:A-, this is info that just came in, but a 6 man party just reached floor 10

617:Seriously!?

618:Are you serious?

619:*excited*

620:I wanna know what the boss is ~

621:I guess they couldnt beat it, since the Urgent Information didnt come.

622:I can tell you now, right -? They said the boss was a Dragon Zombie its poison breath does huge damage.

623:D-D-Dragons here-!

624:Of course it had a Breath its the standard

625:Poison seems kind of underwhelming, but it can be harshna If you concentrate you should be able to interrupt it.

626:The people who fought it said that breath destroyed everything, and without a chance to heal they were annihilated

627:Now is it a Secret Boss or a regular Boss

628:With that kind of strength it wouldnt be weird for it to be Secret though

629:I hope a party that can beat it comes

630:Theyll probably have to increase their Skill Levels and prepare necessary potionsnaa

631:If youre thinking about defeating it, thats necessary

632:Im going to work towards defeating that as my goal; cyas

633:> and that was 632s last *omitted*

634:Thats too cliche, stop lol

635:Whatever you say, isnt having that as a goal fine? Ill cheer you on,ze

636:The big guilds havent really had anything they could really chew on recently, so the Devs added this thing in to correspond to it.

637:So this is good management? Theyve just been demons all over the place though

638:Even so, there was a guy who broke through itna; the person who first did it solo is amazing

639:Without information or anything he did it,naa,you need to praise the first guy who defeated it

640:But who is the first guy who did it solo? I cant find any information regarding that at all

641:I can think of several people who would have been able to do it

642:What about the Fairy Queens Husband? It wouldnt be so strange if he did it.

643:If you calm down and think about it The Husband doesnt have a Fairy, right?

644:Defeating that guy without a Fairy would be kind of hard

645:yeah, heavily armed people aside, fighting bones with an arrow is just way too bad a matchup

646:and as a bonus, without Fairy attacks it wont weaken; no matter what, thats just impossible.

647:If you think about it like that, we have to exclude The Husband, so who is it

648:And if you exclude the guys whod come out and tell us its a mystery,ne

649:Maa, isnt that fine for now? From now on its going to be information on how to defeat the Dragon Zombie.

???

Alright, now lets hear the report.

Yessir, at this point there are no problems from the developers end.

How is it on the AI(children)s side?

For them, its a bit rough, ssune

Fumu,specifically?

To put it frankly, there are too many guys whove cooled down, so the AI(children) are also saying its not funssu.

We cant do anything about that; well just have to take it as a lesson.

Sir, we are always going to continue to challenge and research that.

I know, but at the least there are a lot of good guys out there too.

Thats true-ssu, the 1stAI(children)s number one, PN-000-EA is having fun ssu.

Yeah, well have to give that bow-user kid our gratitude,nee.

Umu, thanks to him, EA is sending back a lot of feedback and the AI(children)s learning is proceeding along.

Its just, on PN-001-EBs side, her So BOOOOORED!s are increasing.

Id like her to bear with it until the Version Upgrade, but

But just talking with the researchers and managers, and developers too, of course shell get tired of it.

I understand her feelings too,ssu~, Sir, what should we do?

If we conceal her outer appearance to some degree, should we try letting her walk around a little?

I cant really agree, but keeping that child shut up like that is also too pitiful.

I thought youd say that, so I already prepared EB-use clothingssu.

Your preparations are too well-done

Because I was expecting it, ssu. This One More itself is originally a plaything for rich people, started out to answer the demand for people who wanted to try walking around in another world different from Real-lifessu. And I know thats why theyd hire AI researchers for a lot of moneyssu.

When the thinking AI(children) are finished, all the NPCs will have feelings and expressions, and because theyll be able to keep up any kind of conversation, this will be the first great step closer to fulfilling those wishes for another world with no limitsne.

Aa, for the Game Users, to the very end theyll see it all as stuff that happens in the game, so its convenient for them.

Its just, Im worried because these AI(children) only exist HEREssu.

I think its better if the Users dont know how much money its taking. If they just treat it as another life while having fun, its for the best.

So you mean its fine if the AI(children) take it as living their first life?

Aa, Id like it if the AI(children) also had fun.

Then, thats the direction well take it ssu.

If you would. I ask that both of you continue your work.

Understood.

AI(Children), just wait a little longer; just a little longer, when youre completed, youll be able to go out and have your own adventures; it might be artificial, but its a world you have the right to have fun in

Because its an Extra Edition, there is no Skill write up.

A/n: I was at quite a loss writing ???.

I decided to write it after considering that it would fine to carelessly venture into that field even if there are readers who understand that.

Again, I just said it, but Im absolutely not going to take questions or comments on ???.
