《Re: Globus Online (Completed)》Chapter 4. Adventure Time begins!
Advertisement
After I clicked 'Begin' a screen popped up.
Server-Wide Notification!The Ancient City of Atlantis has risen from the sea!New Race Unlocked: [Atlantian]
I quickly start creating the Basic Atlantian look... A blue-skinned human with pointy fish ears and fish-like features due to it being underwater for so long... Yeah that should do fine. I'll let them customize a lot of things but the fish-like features stay... The gills must definetly stay so they can breathe underwater...
The Atlantian race can breathe underwater and above ground but they are at their best underwater due to them being able to swim very fast underwater compared to the other race that are currently available to the players...
What else should I add.... Oh yeah! Water magic resistance and fire magic weakness! A little bit weak to Wind and earth but not too much... And natural Water Magic talent...
Yeah that should be all...
I press finish and make the Atlantian race truly available for the players to choose as a starting race.
I notice that Jil and Iris are logging back in... They are creating new characters? Hmm... Let me see their process...
I bring up the coding area and teleport myself to their character creation area way up in the sky... Basically in space already.
I go into Jil's character creation area first.
"Hello!" (Ethos)
"What the!? Who is in here!?" (Jil)
"Behind you Jil!" (Ethos)
She turns around and looks at me in surprise.
"Ethos!? What are you doing here!?" (Jil)
"Hmm... So this is how you look like in reality..." (Ethos)
I am currently looking at a woman about as tall as me, brown hair to her shoulders, blue eyes and the definition of a good bust.
"Ethos! What are you doing here!? How did you get here?! How can you see my body?!" (Jil)
"I am here because I noticed you are creating new characters... Atlantian by the looks of things. I can see your body because of the [Globe]. It takes calibrations to create a tall enough and busty enough and the exact copy of your body except the fat around your stomach area. I don't know why it doesn't take the fat around the stomach area but it's fine that way... How did you even make the [Globe] do that?" (Ethos)
"I don't know... The techs might know but that does not matter right now... So that means you can see anybodies body when they are creating a new character...?" (Jil)
"Yes, well... I came here with my own character so I could see you but usually I would see just code. Iris is creating a new character too? Hmm... Being a Princess might bring bad memories... That reminds me, is everything good with Iris now?" (Ethos)
"Yeah... There was some initial fighting with Iris's old boyfriend and his gang but our guards took care of them and brought her here. We helped her find a new house in our company's area. By area I mean the building we are in. Most of us live in the same building for the best efficiency while creating the game and modifying it." (Jil)
"Hmm... Well good to know. Also... Do you like my Atlantian pre-set?" (Ethos)
"Yeah... It's kind of... How you would expect an Atlantian to be like." (Jil)
"Oh also... I want to create a new religion for fun. To see how it would fare in this world..." (Ethos)
"Hmm? Which one is that?" (Jil)
"My own. The Virtual Religion or something like that should be it's name." (Ethos)

"Well... You can make an event publishing you own religion because it won't have too massive of an impact on the gameplay immediatly but the name should be different..." (Jil)
"Etherian?" (Ethos)
"Yeah. Go with that name. It's better than the one you said before." (Jil)
"Okay... I'll go and see what Iris is doing. Also... I reccomend you keep your hair and face the exact same as you are right now. You look really beautiful." (Ethos)
I teleport myself to Iris's character creation room after seeing Jil blushing a lot.
Infront of me I see a flat-chested woman about one meter and seventy centimeters... Quite... Short. Well no matter...
She has black hair and green eyes... The definition of a loli-girl... Cute aswell.
"It's funny how you don't notice me even though I am right infront of you, Iris." (Ethos)
Iris still doesn't respond and keeps fiddling with her character's waist.
"Iris? You there? Character Creation Room to Iris? Hellooo?" (Ethos)
She still keeps fiddling with her character... I go up to her ear and she still does not notice me.
"Iriiis.... It's me... Your great great grandfather... Stop fiddling with your waist and look infront of you..." (Ethos)
She still keeps fiddling with her character.
"Even that didn't work!? She really is focused on the waist of her character... Is she that worried about looking good...?" (Ethos)
I go up to her character and block her field of vision of her characters waist.
"Move out of the way!" (Iris)
She screams at me for a bit until she realizes something.
"Oi! How did you get in here?!" (Iris)
"Iris... You changed. Are you that worried about how your waist looks? Your own real-life self looks cute enough for me to die to cuteness..." (Ethos)
"Ethos... Umm..." (Iris)
She stops fiddling with her character but now is blushing like crazy...
"Iris. Don't worry... Just leave your character as your real-life self... Want me to help you create your character?" (Ethos)
"I wanted my character... To be a surprise." (Iris)
"Good thing I didn't look then. I just notice you messing with the waist-line code. I haven't looked at your character much." (Ethos)
"Then... Can you please leave so it will still be a surprise?" (Iris)
"Sure. I'll wait in the spawn-area of Atlantis. I still have an Event to code." (Ethos)
I make myself fall through the floor right infront of Iris and fall down to the world of Kuran like a meteor but just a second away from crashing into the ground I stop my entire body mid-air and land down gracefully.
I bring out my coding screen and start creating a brand-new Event for a new religion.
After an hour of fiddling around with the coding screen I finally finish my Religion Creation Event...
Now all that is left to do is start the event and one random NPC will be chosen as a 'Saint' to find and that 'Saint' will grant the Holy Paladin class or another Holy class to a player and the Player must help the 'Saint' grow his religion large enough to get a Church.
Basically two quests connected to eachother.
And... Begin! And the notification is up!
Server-Wide Event!A new Religion has been founded! A quest-line has been opened for all players!First Quest: [Find the Holy Saint of the Etherian]Reward: [Holy Class], ???
I left a mystery reward as a kind of treat for beating both quests. The details for the quest are the same as I said before.

Now I just need to wait for everybody to try to find the Saint.
"Heheheh... I wonder who the Saint NPC is..." (Ethos)
I look at my map that shows all important NPC's because of admin rights and the Saint is from the slums I was smithing in before... Hahah... Somebody from the slums of the 2nd starter city is now a Holy Saint of a new Religion.
Now... To wait for Jil and Iris to come... Is Jil her real name even? I'll ask her...
Oh... There is there they are. It's funny how I can tell the difference between their code and the other peoples code even though each code is really similiar until they do something others haven't done.
Jil and Iris spawn a few meters away from me.
I minimize every screen I had open before and put them in their original spots.
I approach the two girls who are looking around Atlantis with open eyes.
"Heya!" (Ethos)
"Ethos! You did all of this?" (Jil)
"Yup. Amazing right? I took things from Greek and Roman ages and their building patterns and tried my best to mix them into this. I also made different parts of the city and I connected them with bridges." (Ethos)
"It's truly... Brilliant... I didn't think something like this... Could ever be real." (Iris)
"Should we go and get a snack? I made a food district over at the... Southern Island I think it was... Let me check." (Ethos)
I bring up my map and check the Southern part of the Island and it is dedicated to food.
"Yup. Definetly the southern part." (Ethos)
"Sure. I am still amazed at how realistic the food tastes in this game." (Iris)
"Don't forget, it isn't a game to me. This world is basically reality to me." (Ethos)
"I know, Ethos. I know." (Iris)
We begin walking towards the Southern District of the City of Atlantis. A lot of people are spawning in as Atlantians now...
"What boosts do you get as an Atlantian? I didn't properly read through it all... I read only about the Magic part of them because I am leaning towards becoming a magician..." (Iris)
"If you read about the magic part then you'll be fine. Atlantians fight best in water due to them being underwater so long. Anybody who wants to become a water mage should start as an Atlantian. Atlantians can also breathe underwater unlike other races. It was hard coding the pattern to it so it feels like you are swimming underwater while still feeling like you are above the water so you can immediatly breathe without having to get used to it." (Ethos)
"So it's good to stick to water for Atlantians huh?" (Jil)
"Yeah. Also Jil... I have a question for you." (Ethos)
"Yeah?" (Jil)
"What is your real name? I don't think Jil is your real name..." (Ethos)
"I'm Jillian Falkalore. Do you have another name besides Ethos?" (Jil)
"Ethan, Ethan Maerin. That used to be my name atleast." (Ethos)
"So Iris wasn't lying..." (Jil)
"Nope. Well... Let's cross the bridge now." (Ethos)
I smirk as I walk onto the bridge and don't move. The girls wonder why I don't move while standing on the bridge. Suddenly the bridge bends downwards and I grab the girls because they would slide and hurt themselves. Well not a lot but still a couple scratches that could hurt.
Water starts coming out from behind me out of a few hollow pipes and I put the girls down like if they would be on a ride.
The water pushes us downwards and sends us to the Southern Island faster than walking or jogging.
"Like my surprise? I made it so that if somebody steps on the bridge and stands at the beginning for five seconds it turns into a small little ride. It's fast aswell." (Ethos)
The girls are having fun and the ride doesn't suddenly stop but starts slowing down a lot and in the end right before the Southern Island we stop and I get up.
Iris and Jil get up too.
"That was really fun!" (Iris)
"I know!" (Jil)
"Well... Shall we go and eat?" (Ethos)
The girls nod and we go to one of the restaurants around the District. I left it to the hands of the Food Shop A.I program that runs when a new area has been designated by an admin as a food area. I set some areas to a Restaurant area so they automatically made Restaurants in the buildings I set.
It's really good that they have such a function... It would be annoying coding every single stall...
Me and the girls eat for a while and don't talk much because the girls were enjoying the food. Luckily the A.I understood that this is a city near the sea or more precisely... On the sea... So it made most restaurants serve a lot of sea food.
A.I's that go by a certain program but still have some free reign are useful... I used a lot of different programs to help me create this city though... No way am I coding every single shop or smithy that is around the city...
After we ate we left the restaurant and went to the Guild to register ourselves. Jil was familiar with the process because she was one of the people who helped test out the Guild System. She made me the leader though... No matter...
We are currently looking at the quests we can do.
"So... What shall our first quest be, oh so great leader?" (Jil)
"Stop that Jil. Our first quest shall be... Dealing with these goblins. Should be easy for you girls right? I won't interfere because that would be too easy with my strength..." (Ethos)
"Yeah, that should give us a few levels... And because Iris is a mage and I am going towards the Knight class it should be fine." (Jil)
"Iris? Your thoughts?" (Ethos)
"It's fine with me. I hope we find some kind of special quest regarding the Goblins... One that you didn't code Ethos." (Iris)
"Aww... I was hoping to code a God saves Two Girls from Lustful Goblin King event for myself... I am the Main Character afterall..." (Ethos)
"Oh shut up you! We won't be falling to some kind of Lustful goblin!" (Jil)
"Well... Apparently there is a quest that happens if there is one man and two girls in a party. Exactly like the one I just said... The male saves the two girls from a lustful beast. So we will see if our luck is good or bad enough for that." (Ethos)
"You better not increase the chances of that!" (Iris)
"I won't!" (Ethos)
Maybe... We'll see....
"And now... Adventure Time to our First quest!" (Ethos)
We all walk out of the guild and I see that the girls are still in starter outfits and Iris has a regular mage staff and Jil has a normal sword.
"Girls, want better weapons?" (Ethos)
"No. We want to see how far we can get without your help until we need it." (Jil)
"Fine then. I'll always be ready to support you two though. I can do most things and I can insta-kill everything in the game." (Ethos)
We walk out of the city through a normal bridge that leads to the main land. Our goblin quest is nearby the bridge so it should take a short time to get there...
But why do I feel like that quest I talked about is going to activate even with me not doing anything to it?
