Arc: Volume 3 Chapter 5

Start from the beginning
                                    


"Then, let's continue with the briefing, Sir Alan, Ark. Discuss the formation between yourselves."


Th-th-thump, a quest window popped before Ark's eyes.


Hero Assembly!


* Sub-quest: Operation Bomb the Scorch Cannons


The two scorch cannons possessed by the Army of Darkness are advancing on Jackson Castle. If the scorch cannons get into range, they will place Jackson Castle in great jeopardy. Therefore, Jackson's Lord has suggested an operation to stop the scorch cannons.


– Quest success conditions: This quest is split into A and B groups. All players in the defense of Jackson must choose between the A and B group. Upon completion of the quest, all players in the group will be awarded bonus experience and contribution.


– Quest failure conditions: Quest automatically fails if all players are killed during the operation or if they are unable to complete mission within the time limit. Also, if both A and B group fail and the 2 cannons get within range, and start attacking Jackson Castle, then the main quest will fail even if there are still surviving players.


*Time limit: 3 hours


* Ark is currently the leader of Group B. A player registered as a Commander obtains a 20% bonus in experience and contribution points. However, there is a -30% penalty upon failure.


Difficulty: D++


A sub-quest that could possibly cause the main quest to fail!


"Well, then let's divide up the troops now," said the young Lord while looking at the Commanders.


Having finished reading the quest info, Alan suddenly smiled coldly as he spoke. "Are the volunteer troops free to choose which unit to join?"


"Yes, it'll only work if the group works well together, so I will honor the decisions of the field commanders."


"Then Platoon 1 will of course be in Group A, but what will you do, Platoons 2, 3 and the Militia? It doesn't matter to me either way."


"Platoon 2 will also join Group A."

"We will as well..."


After seeing the look in Alan's eyes, the commanders from Platoons 2 and 3 quickly answered.


The young Lord spoke with a shocked expression, "What? Wouldn't that be a problem? If the whole force goes to Group A, then what is Group B supposed to do?"


"Isn't there still the Militia and the Jackson Guard remaining?"


"But the Militia only amount to 20. The Guard is only 30, and even combined they only amount to 50."
