《The Robomechanic Wanderer》Chapter 2 - Bonus Quest
Advertisement
Collin arrived in yet another room and right away looked around him. As if his expecting something to jump out of the corner at him at any moment now. After a good 10 minutes or so he sighed in relieve and started exploring his surroundings. A orb was laying on a table and as Collin came closely he couldn’t resist but touch it. Suddenly the orb disappearing and it looked like it entered through his hand into his body. Right afterwards the mobile-device started making sounds again and he grabbed it and took a look.
“The host has successfully observed a class orb. Calculating a fitting class right now… matched successfully, the host is weak and doesn’t have any outstanding talents. Because of his personality his also too scared to help a friend if they would be in danger. On the flip-side whatever he can actually do he willingly do it for those close to him. The “Epic” class “Robomechanic” has been given to the host. Collin once again was dumbstruck but before he could even rant about what the device just said he got teleported to once again another room. Another message came in. “Bonus class quest activated. There is a bunch of scrap laying around. Go ahead and build a robot rat. Reward for success: Obtain a ancient class robot recipe. Consequence for failing: Exp debuff for 3 days, deadline 2 hours. Goodluck J“. The device started ticking down every second. Because of this and the description Collin was thrown in panic. “How am I supposed to build a robot while I don’t have some kind of blueprint or fought any of them either way?! Is this rigged to make the start harder for people who got a epic class? Also why did I get a class I don’t know anything about!” Collin kept on venting but quickly realised only 1 hour and 50 minutes were left and started looking around. After a while he managed to find a book.

“Would you like to learn the mechanic rat recipe? Requirement: Robot Mechanic Class.”
[Yes – No]
“Y YES RIGHT AWAY!” Collin yelled
“Understood host successfully learned the robot rat recipe”
Name: Robo-Rat Rarity: Common
Required Experience:
Beginner Robomechanic. Additional requirements: None Desc: A rather worthless minion who with some luck survives three hits from a enemy. Required Components:
Common core: x1
Common body(Rat): x1
Common head(Rat): x1
Common leg(Rat): x4
Collin scratched his head and looked around. “Where am I supposed to find those components?”
The device from earlier suddenly rolled out of Collins pocket and grew some wings and a face appeared at the screen.
“Finally fresh air.”
Collin looked full fear to the just transformed device. The device flied up to Collin.
“Answering question from the host.. Components are commonly found in scrap piles or treasures both in the dungeon world and the renewed world. Depending on the rarity of the component the host will need to open the matching treasure or treasures.”
“WHAT ARE YOU?!” Collin yelled to the flying robot.
“Answering question from the host…
I am Sandy your flying know-it-all ai bot with all the information you would need about your new world.”
Collin thought for a bit and answered shortly after. “In that case where are the components I need exactly located?”
“Answering question from the host…
I have no clue I am not a supercomputer”
Collin facepalmed “worthless” and he started looking around. After searching for a while he found a old-looking dusty wooden chest hidden behind. Sandy following closely after him. Collin grabbed the lid and was shaking. “Man I only dreamed about being able to do this!”
“Move on…” Sandy replied and Collin opened the chest and right away Sandy flew in Collins face

Host collected the following from the common chest: Magical screw x4 Common core x1 Common body(Rat): x1 Common head(Rat): x1 Common leg(Rat): x4 Rapolygotic(RPT): x5 Transfered to sandy’s virtual wallet
Collin looked at Sandy and before he asked it Sandy already started.
“Rapolygotic or RPT for short is the currency used within the renewed world. They can be collected from dungeons in chests hidden around it or from the boss chest after beating the dungeon boss. They can be payed to other subjects if one wish to.”
“I see interesting maybe I can buy weapons with it in the future” he said while talking to himself and he walked over to the table from earlier who somehow got transferred with him.
“So how am I supposed to get started with putting this robo to-“
Sandy flied over quickly
“Starting interface for robot assembly for host!”
A puzzle appeared with the components on the left of the screen
“Oh.. I thought this would be more complicated but it is just a pu-..”
Sandy talked through Collin
“Want to activate true-hell complication mode for assembling?”
Collin panicked and yelled “NO NO NO!”
Soon after Collin finished the puzzle
Assembling completed.
Building from robo-rat in progress Estimated duration: 1 hour
Collin slowly looked at the clock and sat down after seeing 1.5 hour was left for the quest.
“Robo-Rat has been built…”

Eight
His name is Eight. Not really, but that’s what the System decided after a slip of the tongue. One moment, he was stepping out the office door on the way home, and the next waking up on a hillside below a town wall. Oh, and the gate guard drove him off, because he thought Eight was a monster. Life’s tough when you’re trapped in an eight-year old body on another world. The first book focuses on Eight's survival on a dangerous new world. If you're a fan of Gary Paulsen's Hatchet, you'll enjoy it. The story is one of discovery, bushcraft, and finding one's way. Note that, while this is very much LitRPG, progression is slow, and Eight spends much of the first book alone. The second book recounts what happens when Eight and friends head east to the village of Voorhei. Expect a blend of fantasy adventure, ghost story, cozy mystery, and family drama. Books one and two make a complete story, while book 3 has just gotten underway.
8 667Rising World
Vonn of Shieldpoint is an ambitious young inventor who, as far as his family knows, just survived a terrible accident. Really, he didn't. Instead a being known as the System has recruited the soul of a modern college student from our world, to fill in for him. Given a new life in a new body, the former human wants to make good use of it and fulfill the dreams of the one he's replacing. He's an Engineer in a world where that's a character class with explicit levels and stats. This world is just discovering the power of steam and clockwork and the occasional magic dungeon crystal, so Vonn is just in time to become a famous genius. He just needs to figure out what the gods actually want from him. (LitRPG Isekai with light but important stats, nonhuman MC. Cover art by Alexandra, https://www.deviantart.com/oktoberbeef .) This book is now available on Amazon! https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B09H5CQSX5 For legal reasons, I need to hide most of the content from Royal Road for now. The version for sale is revised and expanded anyway, including a rewritten opening. If the book does well, that's encouragement to write more of it soon! Reviews are welcome too. As noted in the afterward, it's been fun and useful to share this work with all of you here as I worked on it. Update 2022/2/22: Wow, it did do well! Thanks to all who read, commented, bought, and/or spread the word. Right now I'm working on a side-story about character Selen, and posting that starting yesterday. I do plan to do a true sequel this year, yet.
8 69Goddesses are out of Heroes, so it's up to Me to Save an Isekai World! [Poll Story]
Even outside of Japan no one is safe from being reincarnated to become a hero in a fantasy world. And while our hero was ready to become the typical hero he was meant to be, things start out not even close to how he would have hoped. The story will be guided by the choices readers vote on. P.S. Writing this story as a challenge, Expanding on the idea I read on the forum by DivineEternal1. P.P.S. The art of the cover is not made by me, don't know who the artist is.
8 72Kichiro's Rampage
Meet Kichiro, the son of a samurai. A social outcast, he leaves his home with nothing but a musket and a sword, determined to carve himself a niche in a chaotic world of dragons and leviathans. This fiction incorporates LitRPG elements, but it's not set in a VR. It's set in a fantastical world based loosely on East Asia in the 16th and 17th Century, when the Ming Dynasty was on its last legs, with the addition of magic and monsters. I totally stole the stat tables from Exterminatus, the author of Everybody Loves Large Chests, so let me credit him for that. I'm new to writing so please don't hesitate to criticise, and reviews would be greatly appreciated.
