Job Requirements: Retrieve the huge crate of stolen Lacrima from the Desert Thieves Cartel HQ. 3 wizards maximum are allowed on this Mission / Job.
Job Location: Forgotten Desert
Job Description: A gigantic shipment of Lacrima that was supposed to reach Era days ago has been stolen by an organization calling themselves. "The Cartel", your client was one of the victims of this assault and describes them as brutal warriors, with both skill and determination. They do not quit, and will chase you if you flee. They will let you live, if you give them what they want. Otherwise, they are completely ruthless. They beset them on their journey through a nearby area, and retreated into the Desert upon accomplishing their goal. You set out from whichever town you accept this mission from and head there immediately. They wear white turbans that cover their head and mouths completely, are draped in all black desert robes, with white boots; which are quite dusty no doubt. The Cartel's HQ is built inside of the old ruins of a once great city; you can spot the ruins of the ancient city from a mile off, and see the white and black turban outfits of the Cartel from a distance. Although they may spot you as well at this distance.
Enemies:
Weak: Cartel Recruits (These guys are quite simple too deal with, and wield anything from a longsword, a scimitar, too a sword and shield. However they are inexperienced and not used too being in the desert as they're green too the Cartel. They go down in two hits of C-Ranked damage at the most, maybe even one. If you intimidate them well enough; they may just choose too re-think their decision too join the Cartel and flee from the desert base.
Normal: Cartel Swordsman x10 (These guys are skilled. They wield scimitars and great hammers. They're very nimble, and strike, move, and circle their opponents during the course of the fight through excellent footwork and quick attacks. They use smoke Lacrima and will attempt too use them a few times if they aren't taken out quickly. If hit with a smoke Lacrima you won't be able too see their next attack coming. Takes 3 hits of C-Ranked damage too take each one down. They sword slashes and great hammer strikes do C-Ranked damage.)
Strong: Cartel Wizards x5 (Now you're in trouble. The Cartel's Wizards are no joke. They use both Fire and Wind magic with incredible levels of skill. They will attempt too whim up dust storms, and shred you with wind as well. They are also quick too cast AOE fire spells that can turn the sand too glass in an instant; throwing it around through the air too slice. They wield steel bo-staff with black and white feathers tied too the top of them. Just because they're wizards doesn't mean they won't fight you in melee. They are in the Cartel after all. They wield their bo-staffs with all the skill of one who practices each day. Their Wind and Fire spells range from D-Ranked, to C-Ranked, to B-Ranked for the AOE fire spell. Takes 5 hits of C-Ranked damage too take each one down.)
Boss: The King of Theives (This individual...is deserving of the title. He wears the standard white turban of the Cartel, with their usual black robes and white boots. However he is draped in gold and jewelry. He himself is a wizard. His scimitars are made of an unknown alloy, and have golden runic writing etched through them. He uses Telekinesis too throw his scimitars through the air, whirling them and controlling them as they fly around and strike you like buzzsaws. He also can use his telekinesis too leap vast distances and may simply hit you with a wave of force too send you flying. He is one of the most skilled swordsman you've seen, and has will of one befitting his title. He takes 15 hits of C-Ranked damage too take down. His telekenisis waves do B-Ranked damage and his scimitar slashes do C-Ranked slashes. He rolls 4 attacks / telekinesis waves each round. Good luck, because he is NOT going to let some young wizard(s) take the gigantic room sized crate of Lacrima back too Era...not at all.)
(Note: You may persuade him too give you the Lacrima, if you're willing too part with 100k Jewels on the spot, if not, he's likely attacking you immediately if you're not an interested buyer. Since you've discovered the location of the Cartel's HQ.)
Reward: 7000 Jewels
Hargeon town, a place filled with wonder, with excitement, with Mei's house that she doesn't really stay at very often. Ever since she signed up with the guild Mei had the problem of never being home, most of the time she spent now was travelling. It brought about a little bit of depression for Mei, she didn't want to be far from home this often but at the same time she was making quite a bit of money... and well reputation within the guild and the world. Perhaps at some point she should try and get over her shyness and allow for the world to know the majesty of Mei. Thinking about how she might try and become famous just make her blush red like a lobster, or possibly that was the heat.
Seriously this job was in a desert, why were all of these jobs always out in the middle of nowhere in the worst conditions. Mei always had to trek across vast amounts of space just to reach this one point, this one place, which was just in the worst spot. First it was the imp job, that canyon coupled with the small cave at the end was horrible, though for some reason she didn't hate the squeezing she had to do within that tiny cave as much now. The worst had to be the village where that cat was gone, not because of how hard it was, but because had to walk all that way to get a cat, when she could have just stayed home to catch a pussy... uh cat, that's what she meant, cat. Seriously it was a 10 minute tops job, that took hours to head towards... yeah it was bad.
Hopefully, this mission wasn't going to be like that, especially since Mei arrived at the desert scene, apparently before the others. For some reason, Mei had a feeling that Aiyana would be her partner on this job... but there was another? How odd, she didn't know anyone else in the guild might have wanted to come all the way out here for this job, or at least would have taken the time. Maybe it was someone not from the guild, like Mao, Mei liked Mao, she had a fluffy tail and was nice, maybe someone like that? Oh well as Mei thought about it, she waited by a pillar on the outskirts of what appeared to be a ruined city, just like the client described was out here, apparently the guy's who attacked him might be in this location, if they were then Mei would be able to handle it, if they weren't Mei would probably throw a fit in her mind, and then walk all the way back home in shame. Hopefully they were here.
