First Event?

Zoom scrolled over the forums which was in a blaze currently, everyone was talking about the giant spectral eagle incident.

"That was so cool! I wish I could have that eagle as a pet."

"I think that was the first event, I thought it would be announced but I guess not."

"Is this really the first event? Maybe or maybe not."

"I don't care whether it's an event or not, the Skylark guild will always come out on top!"

"F*** you, the Earth Monarchs are clearly better!"

"Since when?!"

'Interesting, I guess I should start preparing, three days huh? I'll hit Nico up.'

He opened up the chat section and sent a message to Nico whether he wanted to level.

"Just in time, I'm with my friends in the west gate right now, they don't mind you joining us, I was shamelessly trying to recruit them to the guild since they're not in any guild, after the session we can maybe set up for them to be accepted into the guild?"

"You actually did something to help? Nice..." Zoom replied.

"Of course I do! I love my guild." Nico said.

"Yes yes, I'll be there in a few minutes."

"No problem, we are still preparing either way."

After awhile Zoom arrived at the west gate, crowds of players were gathered, he approached a certain group of players with familiar faces, he has played with them quite a few times before and they were numbered at around five excluding Nico.

"Zoom, it's been awhile, you stopped playing the game why?" One of the players in the group said, it was a short man around the age of twenty with curly black hair, he was fully plated in plate armour with a large shield and short sword.

"I had to study for a bit, plus I was also waiting for this game to launch, I didn't expect you guys to also hop onto this game Kass." Zoom replied.

"Of course we'll hop onto this new game, the hype is growing day by day." The short man or Kass said.

"Were going to Giant's Forest, that was where you guys were awhile ago right, you would have liked to fight it, Nico even told me you guys met the giant eagle their too, the eagle's probably a boss event or some s***." This time a tall blonde man with a slightly muscular figure walked forward and spoke, he looked to be around twenty-two.

He wore leather armour with a V shaped shield with a thin yet sturdy and sharp sabre, he had a confident expression as he spoke.

"Given your personality you would probably try to fight and die anyways Eclipse." Zoom shook his head, the other five nodded while the blonde man frowned looking at the others agree.

"Agreed, Eclipse you're not invincible, you always try to solo everything but in the end we always have to rescue you every time." A woman just as tall as Eclipse with similar blonde hair and a slender figure spoke, she looked similar to Eclipse but didn't have the same confident aura and expression.

This was Mitsi, Eclipse's twin, she wore leather armour and had two thick gloves with tiny yet sharp spikes pointing upwards.

"So by the way were going to enter a dungeon in the Giant's Forest Zoom, it's a special dungeon, it's static and doesn't disappear even if all the monsters are cleared out, the monsters will re-spawn after a few hours, groups can also meet each other and fight." Another man an inch taller than Kass spoke.

This was Gazel, he had black hair and wore leather armour with a purple gem floating around his palm.

"I use arcane, I can do de-buffs and cast supportive spells, Zoom will be our ranged damage per second, Nico on heals, Kass will tank everything, the twins will be both melee damage per second, while Quin will be our mage." Gazel said.

Everyone nodded.

A short lady that looked to be nineteen with pink hair approached Zoom, this was Quin.

"Where is Ciel?" Quin asked.

"She's busy." Zoom replied.

"What a bummer." She turned around and sighed.

"Alright let's move on, we all have hover boards right? I have the coordinates for the location so I'll take the lead." Kass said.

After a few more minutes of preperation and chatting they all headed out to the Giant's Forest.

The trip was smooth, they sometimes fought rogue beasts with players avoiding them due to their numbers.

After entering they stored back their hover boards to not alert any beasts around.

Through the guidance of Kass they soon arrived at a giant tree, all the trees in the area were gigantic but this one topped them all.

At the bottom if it's trunk was a large opening with no door, it was slightly dim with a green glow.

"This is it, just a reminder unless we meet other groups farming, try your best to take as little damage as possible, unlike other games the monsters inside this dungeon can't be leashed so once we see players quickly kill the monsters and stablize, any questions?" Kass said.

"None." They simultaniously spoke.

With no more questions left they soon entered inside, after passing through the large entrance they were teleported to an area.

The area had the same vibe and feeling as the Giant's forest.

Looking up, tens of miles above them were soil, roots and tree trunks covered the area like a ceiling.

The ground was a little unstable and hard to get a good footing with the many small roots popping out fo the ground.

Trees shot to the ceiling and looked like pillars holding up the ceiling.

They were in an elevated hill with a great view, after looking around they could see countless moving organisms like trees twice the size of a car, gigantic sized ants half a meter in size, bugs and birds flew from above.

After using appraising the monsters and beasts they were both surprised.

"F*** they're level twenty and above."
