too many games to count,Copy !req
2. though the vast majority simply
come and go in obscurity.Copy !req
3. The greatest of all gamesCopy !req
4. is the fully immersive VR game boasting
over 30 million players worldwide—Copy !req
5. Shangri-La Frontier, which rightly
earns the title of "god-tier game"!Copy !req
6. One lover of trash games, Rakuro Hizutome,Copy !req
7. is trying out the god-tier

8. What adventures await him there?Copy !req
9. WINNER KEI UOMICopy !req
10. ERRANDS, CULTIVATION, AND GAME PROGRESS
Okay, let's move on to fortunes.Copy !req
11. ERRANDS, CULTIVATION, AND GAME PROGRESS
Number one star sign is...Copy !req
12. ERRANDS, CULTIVATION, AND GAME PROGRESS
- Number one star sign is...Copy !req
13. Number one star sign is...Copy !req
14. Gemini! You have the best luck today.Copy !req
15. Your lucky item is roller skates.Copy !req
16. Gosh, I wish I could ride
roller skates to school!Copy !req
17. But where would I get some?Copy !req
18. - But where would I get some?
- Gotta say, it's one well made game...Copy !req
19. Gotta say, it's one well made game...Copy !req
20. Shangri-La Frontier.Copy !req
21. I'd originally meant it to
just kill a little time.Copy !req
22. PRO GAMER WITH "NITRO SQUAD"Copy !req
23. But...Copy !req
24. MWAHAHA / GWAHAHA - The thought of them
enjoying it without me really ticks me off!Copy !req
25. MWAHAHA / GWAHAHACopy !req
26. Still, there's just a week
until the big tournament,Copy !req
27. so I'd better work out
the last of the kinks.Copy !req
28. Check out Inventoria Key ASAP, man!Copy !req
29. Scratch that.Copy !req
30. I really can't bear to
let them get ahead of me!Copy !req
31. Okay!Copy !req
32. THE SERPENT'S APPLE
- Did you see it?Copy !req
33. That awesome sci-fi armor lineup?Copy !req
34. I could take on the entire
SLF playerbase with that!Copy !req
35. Yeah, I saw it!Copy !req
36. If you could use that stuff, it'd
change up the whole game, for real!Copy !req
37. Yeah!Copy !req
38. So, what now? What now?Copy !req
39. Well, about that...Copy !req
40. Before I came here, I went into the
storage space and checked a few things out.Copy !req
41. And?Copy !req
42. My conclusion is...Copy !req
43. At the moment, they're not useful
as anything more than art pieces.Copy !req
44. Those tactical machines and power armorsCopy !req
45. seem to require a power source called
a "Non-Standard Ether Reactor,"Copy !req
46. WIRE "KEEP-OUT
BLADECopy !req
47. "HARBINGER" - an item I've never heard ofCopy !req
48. and have no idea where to get.Copy !req
49. And you can't use the weapons
without the power armor on, so...Copy !req
50. No way!Copy !req
51. I got so excited, I
didn't dig any deeper...Copy !req
52. Actually, I've got a
Non-Standard Ether Reactor.Copy !req
53. Gross!Copy !req
54. Where the hell did you get that?Copy !req
55. Maybe it's 'cause I did most
of the fighting against Kirin,Copy !req
56. but I got it in my loot.Copy !req
57. NON-STANDARD ETHER REACTORCopy !req
58. I underestimated you, Mr. Bondage Rodeo!Copy !req
59. Damn it! Wish I coulda seen that rodeo.Copy !req
60. It's my one regret of
the Wethermon fight...Copy !req
61. It seems like it's damaged, though.Copy !req
62. NON-STANDARD ETHER REACTOR DAMAGED -
It seems like it's damaged, though.Copy !req
63. You can't fix it at a shop?Copy !req
64. The blacksmiths I went to all
turned me away at the door.Copy !req
65. "I can't fix a thing if I've
got no idea what it is."Copy !req
66. Yeah, being a Divinity-era
relic and all...Copy !req
67. We might need a specialized blacksmith.Copy !req
68. Or a special item...Copy !req
69. Either way, I'm stumped.Copy !req
70. I might know a way to get it fixed.Copy !req
71. Hey! You did that on purpose!Copy !req
72. Hey, are you serious about that?Copy !req
73. Well, no guarantees.Copy !req
74. And since it involves a unique scenario,
it might be hard to get you there.Copy !req
75. I was hoping you'd let me
borrow that item of yours.Copy !req
76. Okay.Copy !req
77. Or so I'd like to say...Copy !req
78. But I've got a condition.Copy !req
79. I wanna know the unlock conditions for
that unique scenario you're hiding.Copy !req
80. Come on, Katzo.Copy !req
81. I mean, it's not like I'm
triggering my own unique stuff!Copy !req
82. I gotta piggyback on
everyone else's stuff!Copy !req
83. You sulk about the most annoying things.Copy !req
84. In SLF, information on
uniques is extremely valuable.Copy !req
85. Even more so for those
with monopolies on it.Copy !req
86. The three of us didn't come together
purely out of a sense of camaraderie.Copy !req
87. To protect our own profits,
we won't share information easily.Copy !req
88. And... the same goes for Katzo-kun.Copy !req
89. It's not like it showed me the
conditions when I unlocked it,Copy !req
90. so I can only explain my
own situation at the time.Copy !req
91. Is that enough?Copy !req
92. You mean it?Copy !req
93. Don't act so shocked.
You're the one who asked.Copy !req
94. I didn't wanna reveal this stuff,Copy !req
95. but you want a show of good faith, right?Copy !req
96. And like I just said, I don't have any
proof that these are the conditions.Copy !req
97. All right, here I go.Copy !req
98. What I did was...Copy !req
99. Unique monster, Lycagon the
Nightslayer, encountered.Copy !req
100. Unique... monster?Copy !req
101. At level 20 or less,Copy !req
102. I lasted five minutes
without taking damageCopy !req
103. against the randomly encountered unique
monster, Lycagon the Nightslayer,Copy !req
104. then landed around 200 critical
hits with a vorpal weapon.Copy !req
105. You expect me to do that?Copy !req
106. You acrobatic asshole!Copy !req
107. What are you mad at me for?Copy !req
108. It's like if he asked you how you fly,Copy !req
109. and you told him to work out his pecs!Copy !req
110. You think there's no harm in telling me
because there's no chance I'll do it, right?Copy !req
111. Hey, this isn't fair!Copy !req
112. I gave you a genuine answer!Copy !req
113. Fine, whatever!Copy !req
114. Just take the stupid thing already.Copy !req
115. Hey!Copy !req
116. Oh, right. Sunraku-kun...Copy !req
117. What now?Copy !req
118. Could I get back that
thing I left with you?Copy !req
119. What thing?Copy !req
120. Oh, right. Forgot I hadn't done that.Copy !req
121. Hey, Sunraku-kun.Copy !req
122. Could you hang onto this for a while?Copy !req
123. Um, sure.Copy !req
124. ITEM OWNERSHIP HAS BEEN TRANSFERRED.Copy !req
125. REWARD SCALESCopy !req
126. That thing you were messing with
in the Wethermon fight, right?Copy !req
127. You said you'd borrowed it, right?Copy !req
128. ITEM OWNERSHIP HAS BEEN TRANSFERRED.Copy !req
129. From an NPC organization
called the Golden Scales.Copy !req
130. I think it's part of one of the highest
classes of items in all Shangri-La Frontier.Copy !req
131. Theoretically, if you
throw in enough money,Copy !req
132. you can get stats even higher
than those of a unique monster.Copy !req
133. You'd need the budget of a small
country to do it, of course.Copy !req
134. It seems the Inventoria can't
be removed once it's equipped,Copy !req
135. so I'd expected it to be sold off...Copy !req
136. What? Really?Copy !req
137. Right, they did mention it
becoming a part of your body...Copy !req
138. Fortunately, it doesn't seem to have been
taken, even as part of the PKK penalty.Copy !req
139. But this is the one thing I didn't
want to lose, so I laundered it.Copy !req
140. Laundered it?Copy !req
141. A little trick to keep your items
from being lost to the penalty.Copy !req
142. The penalty for PKing means
that when you're killed,Copy !req
143. ownership of your items transfers
to the person who killed you.Copy !req
144. And you have to pay a fee in proportion
to your wrongdoing—your karma points.Copy !req
145. I think it sets your affection levels from
most NPCs to the lowest level possible,Copy !req
146. too, but that's fine.Copy !req
147. The fee this time was pretty annoying.Copy !req
148. Oh, no!Copy !req
149. When you're killed, even
items kept in storage will beCopy !req
150. PENCILGON'S STORAGE - When you're killed,
even items kept in storage will beCopy !req
151. PENCILGON'S STORAGE - automatically seized
and sold off to help pay off the fee.Copy !req
152. automatically seized and sold
off to help pay off the fee.Copy !req
153. SOLD OFF - automatically seized and
sold off to help pay off the fee.Copy !req
154. REPAYMENT - automatically seized and
sold off to help pay off the fee.Copy !req
155. REPAYMENTCopy !req
156. Protecting certain items from this
seizure is called "laundering."Copy !req
157. So instead of putting them in storage,Copy !req
158. you gave them to Sunraku
before Psyger-0 killed you?Copy !req
159. You can actually do that?Copy !req
160. Seems like a pretty big exploit...Copy !req
161. No. Even if you hand over the item,Copy !req
162. it'll still search through
your history and sell it off.Copy !req
163. Huh?Copy !req
164. Then why didn't the Scales go away?Copy !req
165. The Scales aren't really mine.Copy !req
166. Their ownership fundamentally
lies with The Golden Scales.Copy !req
167. What matters here is thatCopy !req
168. items you don't have ownership of
won't be automatically sold off.Copy !req
169. But you can't transfer ownership just
by handing an item to someone else.Copy !req
170. So when Psyger-0 killed me,
even if I'd been carrying the Scales,Copy !req
171. their ownership by The Golden
Scales wouldn't have changed.Copy !req
172. So they wouldn't have been sold off;
they'd probably just be dropped as an object.Copy !req
173. I think I get the idea,
but how's that laundering?Copy !req
174. Isn't it just the Scales falling
outside the standard penalty purview?Copy !req
175. You can exploit that property to
do some very interesting things.Copy !req
176. "The scales preserve the balance.Copy !req
177. Let the past be my payment,
and return what has been offered."Copy !req
178. THE TOMBGUARD
FLOWER PIN OF BYGONE PRAYERSCopy !req
179. That's the Tome of Truth and...
What's the flower thing?Copy !req
180. My loot from the Wethermon fight.Copy !req
181. Looks like the three of us each
got slightly different items.Copy !req
182. CLEAR SKY SKILLBOOKCopy !req
183. Let's see... "Clear Sky Skillbook"?Copy !req
184. A DIGITAL RECORD OF SWORD TECHNIQUES LEFT
BY A DIVINITY-ERA SWORDSMASTER. - Let'sCopy !req
185. see... "Clear Sky Skillbook"?Copy !req
186. A DIGITAL RECORD OF SWORD TECHNIQUES
LEFT BY A DIVINITY-ERA SWORDSMASTER.Copy !req
187. I offered the Flower Pin of Bygone Prayers
and the Tome of Truth to the Scales.Copy !req
188. OWNERSHIP / OFFERING - In that instant,
ownership of the Pin transferred to the Scales,Copy !req
189. OWNERSHIP / OFFERING - which meant
they no longer had physical existence.Copy !req
190. which meant they no longer
had physical existence.Copy !req
191. So they couldn't be seized?Copy !req
192. Right.Copy !req
193. And it actually let you get 'em back?Copy !req
194. If you pay the price within one week,
you can retrieve the items.Copy !req
195. Of course, I had to give up
40 levels to make it happen...Copy !req
196. But if it means I get to keep this pin,
I won't miss them.Copy !req
197. On top of that, in order
to rent out these Scales,Copy !req
198. I used my main weapon as collateral!Copy !req
199. The Scales' power transferred its
ownership to the organization, so it'sCopy !req
200. also safe!Copy !req
201. So much for wiping the slate
clean on your crimes...Copy !req
202. So, how much was the fee?Copy !req
203. A good 500 million mahni.Copy !req
204. You won't get it outta me.Copy !req
205. I don't need to borrow it.Copy !req
206. I can totally afford it.Copy !req
207. The most recent fight proved it to me.Copy !req
208. Proved what?Copy !req
209. Hunting unique monsters is
a profitable enterprise.Copy !req
210. As simple as that, huh?Copy !req
211. On that point, I have a proposal.Copy !req
212. Would you two like...Copy !req
213. to form a clan with me?Copy !req
214. Rock...Copy !req
215. Paper...Copy !req
216. Scissors!Copy !req
217. Yeah! Pencilgon loses!Copy !req
218. That means Pencilgon's our clan leader!Copy !req
219. Oh, yeah!Copy !req
220. Best out of three!Copy !req
221. Nothing doing!Copy !req
222. I should've known I couldn't beat
their reaction speed...Copy !req
223. SMUG
- Just figuring that out, are you?Copy !req
224. SMUGCopy !req
225. I'm not cut out to be a
leader... but ah, well.Copy !req
226. Okay, Leader!
Here's your first job.Copy !req
227. What should our clan name be?Copy !req
228. UNIQUE HUNTERS / OUTRAGE / TRASH GAME
ALLIANCE WOLFGANG / GOLD RUSH /Copy !req
229. PIKE-MOUNTED HEADS
PENCILGON-CHAN AND HER ERRANDBOYSCopy !req
230. Okay.Copy !req
231. What about this one, then?Copy !req
232. Sounds good to me. Pretty cool.Copy !req
233. I'd have been okay with "Pencilgon-chan
and Her Errandboys," myself.Copy !req
234. I would not have.Copy !req
235. All right, my fellows.Copy !req
236. Let's ready our drinks.Copy !req
237. We will henceforth become
wolves venturing through theCopy !req
238. world of Shangri-La Frontier
in search of unique monsters—Copy !req
239. And in celebration
of Clan Wolfgang's founding...Copy !req
240. A toast!Copy !req
241. So, what'll our emblem be?Copy !req
242. I think that one...Copy !req
243. should be up to Pencilgon!Copy !req
244. Get to it, Leader!Copy !req
245. Stop making me do everything!Copy !req
246. Didn't know there was a pub back here...Copy !req
247. I figure it can just be whatever.Copy !req
248. Same here.Copy !req
249. C'mon, man.Copy !req
250. If we're gonna make a guild,
at least think stuff over!Copy !req
251. Wow, there's basically no one here.Copy !req
252. Hey, you guys.Copy !req
253. I've got a question for you.Copy !req
254. I've been searching for the trioCopy !req
255. who beat the unique monster
from that recent announcement.Copy !req
256. Their names areCopy !req
257. ARTHUR PENCILGON
- Their names areCopy !req
258. ARTHUR PENCILGON
- Arthur Pencilgon,Copy !req
259. Oikatzo,Copy !req
260. OIKATZO
- Oikatzo,Copy !req
261. and Sunraku...Copy !req
262. SUNRAKU
- and Sunraku...Copy !req
263. Never heard of 'em!Copy !req
264. Hey!Copy !req
265. Hey, Leader!
I thought you rented the place out!Copy !req
266. I don't recall ever saying that!Copy !req
267. I just said barely anyone ever went there!Copy !req
268. Well, it's good timing.Copy !req
269. Let's call the meeting to a close.Copy !req
270. My level dropped,
thanks to the Evil Force and all,Copy !req
271. so I'd like to do some leveling, myself.Copy !req
272. Yeah, and I should turn in the
Scales and get my main weapon back.Copy !req
273. You handle the reactor stuff, Sunraku-kun!Copy !req
274. You got it!Copy !req
275. And you figure out that emblem!Copy !req
276. Later!Copy !req
277. They split up!Copy !req
278. Hey, player named Sunraku!Copy !req
279. Wait! Don't run away!Copy !req
280. Terribly sorry!Copy !req
281. My name's not Sunraku! It's Samraku!Copy !req
282. You liar!Copy !req
283. Here we go!Copy !req
284. I'm back, Emul!Copy !req
285. Open a gate, would you?Copy !req
286. You're late, Sunraku-san!Copy !req
287. Positively tardy!Copy !req
288. Now, now. I'll explain later.Copy !req
289. Harrumph!Copy !req
290. Right, that creepy sword.Copy !req
291. I forgot to hand it back to Pencilgon.Copy !req
292. Well, next time.Copy !req
293. You chose the wrong escape route, buddy!Copy !req
294. You're heading right for a dead end!Copy !req
295. I just wanna ask you some questions.Copy !req
296. You don't have to run—Copy !req
297. Hey, he's gone.Copy !req
298. Where'd he go?Copy !req
299. Huh? Aniki Vash isn't here?Copy !req
300. I haven't seen Dadd—the boss
since the day he spoke to you.Copy !req
301. Got it.Copy !req
302. So he's not necessarily
always at the Palace, huh?Copy !req
303. I was hoping to go see him after I did my
skill fusions and point distributions...Copy !req
304. You successfully learned
your new skills, I see.Copy !req
305. Hey, bird-man...Copy !req
306. Would you like to peruse
my skill grimoires?Copy !req
307. I'm kinda broke.Copy !req
308. 4000 MAHNI
- I'm kinda broke.Copy !req
309. Hmph!Copy !req
310. Don't "hmph" at me, lady.Copy !req
311. You were gonna rope me into a
purchase the minute you saw a chance,Copy !req
312. you money-grubbing bunny.Copy !req
313. Well, where shall we go next?Copy !req
314. Who else besides Aniki could
fix the Ether Reactor?Copy !req
315. Probably not Bilac, but
I might as well ask.Copy !req
316. Yeah, I can't fix that.Copy !req
317. Yeah, figured.Copy !req
318. Only an Ancient Craftsman can
fix up stuff from the Divinity.Copy !req
319. Only an Ancient
Craftsman can fix up stuff from the Divinity.Copy !req
320. I'm only a Master Craftsman.Copy !req
321. MASTER CRAFTSMAN
- I'm only a Master Craftsman.Copy !req
322. I'm only a Master Craftsman.Copy !req
323. Pops is the only guy I know
who could handle this.Copy !req
324. So you need the "Ancient Craftsman" job?Copy !req
325. Ah, well.Copy !req
326. I'll forget the reactor for now,
and work on raising my fused skills.Copy !req
327. Raising?Copy !req
328. Growth?Copy !req
329. What is it?Copy !req
330. That's it!Copy !req
331. I just need to do some raising!Copy !req
332. If there's no Ancient Craftsman around,Copy !req
333. I just need to turn Bilac
into an Ancient Craftsman!Copy !req
334. Don't underestimate the
Ancient Craftsman title!Copy !req
335. It's not as easy as you make it sound!Copy !req
336. I'm not telling you to become a
Divine Craftsman like Aniki Vash.Copy !req
337. DIVINE CRAFTSMAN - I'm not telling you to
become a Divine Craftsman like Aniki Vash.Copy !req
338. Besides, it's a road
you've got to go down someday, right?Copy !req
339. Which means now is the time!Copy !req
340. Let's make a try at that
Ancient Craftsman title!Copy !req
341. Make a try?Copy !req
342. I'm not saying this
out of a lack of faith.Copy !req
343. I'm saying it with full
confidence in your skills!Copy !req
344. And I'll help you, of course!Copy !req
345. Big Sis Bee, I know you can do it!Copy !req
346. Me, an Ancient Craftsman?Copy !req
347. You got it, bird-man.Copy !req
348. I'll play along.Copy !req
349. I'm gonna become an Ancient Craftsman!Copy !req
350. Yay, Big Sis Bee!Copy !req
351. Hell yeah!Copy !req
352. Let's start the plan to cultivate Bilac!Copy !req
353. Yes, indeed!Copy !req

about the female avatar, though.Copy !req
362. Or maybe they'll totally ignore it?Copy !req
363. Okay, let's go with it.Copy !req
364. PLEASE INPUT NAME.
