Job Location: Ancient Ruins
Job Description: A strange door was found in the ancient ruins last week, upon its open all contact was lost with the excavation crew. At first, it was thought to just be a issue with the communication lacrima, after a extra twenty-four hours of silence the foreman of the crew grew worried and sent a security team. They reached the main camp and then came under attack by the excavation crew… then silence again. The remaining workers decided to seal the ruins and call for Rune Knight intervention. A Rune Knight Assault team arrived, using weapons and gear that made it clear they were aware of what they were dealing with, and entered the ruins. They never returned, so now the remaining survivors have called upon the guilds for help.
You arrive three day later to find nobody waiting for you, just blood and destruction but as far as you can tell no one has left the ruins area. Many discarded weapons are found on the ground and there are signs of a fight. But there are no bodies, with the amount of blood on the ground and walls when there should be quite a few. Whats going on? Enter the Ruins and find out what's going on.
Enemies:
Weak:
Infected person x4: They seem to have lost all sense of themselves and just wander about until a food source makes itself known… and their food source is you. They will try to bite you and swing at you, with each attack dealing B-rank damage. Thankfully they are quite slow and not hard to avoid. For some reason, they seem to be rotting as if they were dead. each person takes 2 B rank hits to take down.
Normal:
Infected Dog x2: These Dogs are scary fast, hard to hit, and they will try to kill you. They deal B-rank damage and will try and pin you to the ground. Try not to let them get too close. If you fail to kill the dogs in three post they will howl and another 2 will come running. Each Dog can take 1 B-rank of damage but they are hard to hit.
Strong:
Hunter: Huge scaled creatures - you're not even sure what they are honestly. They have scales that reduce damage by half and long sharp claws that deal A-rank damage. They are incredibly fast and clearly very smart, smart enough to ambush you. Note: This enemy will run from you and get an ally if it fails to kill you in three post rotations. If it escapes, it will return in one post rotation with two buddies for a total of three hunters. Each hunter can take 5 B ranks of damage
Boss:
Tyrant: Only one exists but running into it will ruin your day. This thing stands over ten feet tall and its very steps crack the ground. On its right arm are four three-foot long claws capable of cutting stone and steel. It can run over sixty mile per hour so running is not really option; and if it charges, you only have a brief time to get out of the way. The Tyrant can take 10! B-rank hits before falling to its knees you then have to deal another 10! B ranks to it heart to kill it. it will stand back up after one post rotation causing is base HP to reset but not its heart HP.
Reward:
Job grants B-rank EXP and access to the second job in the Panic! “Infection Series 2 of 5.”
"How annoying." He thought with a look to match. Annoyed that his peaceful day that was supposed to be spent drinking wine and napping, had instead turned into him marching through a desert in order to clean up someone else's mess. The only somewhat amusing part to the whole scenario was that the Rune Knights, the law enforcement of Fiore, couldn't handle such a simple little thing. "How pathetic. No wonder guilds like Savage Skull and Basilisk Fang just do whatever they want. The police can't even handle a simple excavation sight." Which lead to the survivors calling upon any willing mage that would help.
After sometime walking, Gil finally came upon the ruins. An old structure, placed in the middle of nowhere, half of it seemed ready to collapse upon a moments notice. "I'm sure this was once a grand place worthy of someone like myself." He mused, envisioning what the ancient ruins might have been like centuries before. Kicking the dust up from the road with his boots, Gil ventured closer to the ruins.
Disgusting
His nose crinkled as a new sight came into his crimson eyed view. Blood was scattered across the ground, most of it having dried in the sun by now. Weapons lay here and there some broken and others still functional. Yet despite the disorder there was not a single body in sight. It might have been worrisome to anyone else other than Gil. "It stinks. Must be Rune Knight blood or maybe just the peasants that were here before them." He maneuvered around the blood stains, not wanting to dirty himself or rather his shoes. Nearing the entrance to the ruins he paused simply gazing into the darkness of the eerie structure. "Come on out! You're not going to make a King come and get you!" He called forth, boisterous voice echoing down into the ruins. Standing there, one hand slicking through his blonde mane, brushing any stray strands away from the crimson insignia on the back of his neck, the golden man stood out like a sore thumb in the otherwise barren landscape.
