Newbie Dungeon: War-Ridden City

## **Newbie Dungeon: War-Ridden City Summary**

[Entering Single Player Dungeon…] Ch1

[Background: War is descending upon the city. The people are not prepared for it. Most of them died in the crossfire, leaving behind civilians like you struggling to survive in the ruins of the city. Shootings scare you from time to time. The rebels and the thugs have no intention to cease fire. Their eyes are filled with rage and violence, and they want to destroy everything!]

[Main Mission: Survive for seven days, 0/7]

[Secondary Mission (Optional): Aid civilians until the war ends. Each civilian helped can provide you with a higher rating.]

(Hint: The Beginner’s Dungeon is a great opportunity for every player.)

Kieran booted up the game after explaining that it was so realistic that if a player dies while playing it, they die in real life; the beta testers had an abysmal survival rate, causing the game to not be publicly released. He spawned next to a dead body, on which he found a backpack containing food, water, and a diary. Because he read the diary, Kieran learned that the body also had a [Dagger] and a lighter; he realized that the high death rate was most likely due to players not having the stomach to loot the gruesome body, thus forcing them to play without a weapon. As he was leaving the building, Colleen and a Thug came in. Kieran used the [Dagger] to kill the Thug; he learned [Sharp Weapon (Dagger) (Basic)]. He left, looking for an entrance to the sewers while avoiding patrols. He came across Colleen fighting a thug near the entrance to the sewer. The thug was shot by some of Vulture’s men. Colleen volunteered to be a diversion while Kieran killed the Vultures, after which they went to Colleens’ hideout. After talking, Colleen taught Kieran [Evade (Basic)].

Jackel Wurke and some men came to find Kieran and Colleen, but they had already set up an ambush for the Vultures. While hiding in the ruins, Kieran slowly picked off the men by stealthily slitting their necks; he learned [Undercover (Basic)]. When there was only one man and Wurke left, Kieran and Colleen started shooting at them. Kieran managed to shoot Wurkes head, killing him after learning [Firearm Weapon (Light Firearm) (Basic)]. Kieran and Colleen looted the battlefield and Kieran learned [Hand-to-Hand Combat (Basic)] after using the last man as a punching bag, realizing that the Newbie dungeon was a way for new players to learn and strengthen skills. They returned to their hideout with the last living man as a hostage. Kieran tortured the hostage for information about the Vultures.

They took all of their loot, and went to Colleen’s last hideout near the Vultures headquarters. Kieran sneaked into the headquarters, waiting for an opportunity to take out some guards without the sniper at the top of the building noticing. He then went to the top and killed the sniper. Kieran bluffed his way deeper into the headquarters, eventually reaching the Boss’s room. Kieran bluffed, causing Boss Vulture to open the door; Kieran then killed the Boss. After a phone call with Major Zarukhar, Kieran freed Maggie and went to kill more guards before leaving. He and Maggie left with a cart full of loot.

At Colleen's hideout, Kieran told her what happened; he then prepared to attack the Major. The Major tracked Kierans' location and sent Second Lieutenant Hank along with a small army to attack Kieran. Kieran quickly used the [M12] to snipe the sniper. He used the rifle to pick off soldiers one by one, constantly moving and hiding to avoid detection. When there were only a few men left, the machine gunner's aide turned the gun on Hank, killing the last few men. The aide then talked to Kieran, and gave him some painkillers for Kieran’s wounds. Kieran used the painkiller, then killed the traitor with a [U-11]. He looted a skill book that taught him [Tracking (Basic)].

Zarukhar learned of Hank’s death, and rallied his men against General Zennings, who he thought was responsible for killing Hank. Zarukhar mobilized his men, and they marched to Zenning’s base at Times Square. Kieran, knowing their destination, went [Undercover] and used shortcuts to beat them to Times Square. Once there, he saw the entire Square was filled with snipers. He slit the throat of a sniper, and took over that position. Zarukhar arrived, and Kieran sniped both Zennings and Zarukhar as soon as they began talking to each other; both armies started attacking each other, each thinking that the other side was responsible for their own leader's death.

Someone who was also [Undercover] snuck up on Kieran, but he noticed it in time, and killed the enemy. Kieran’s gunshot let the armies know he was there, though, so Kieran had to run to nearby ruins while being shot at by rifles, tanks, and a rocket launcher. He lost them after destroying the extra weight of his backpack, allowing him to be able to run at full speed. Kieran decided to abandon the battlefield, and returned to Zarukhar’s base to loot it. He used [Tracking] to cross a minefield, allowing him to enter the base. He snuck through the base, eventually finding a room guarded by the only soldier still at the base. Kieran slit the soldiers throat, and unlocked the room, finding a lot of supplies. Kieran used his new gun and rocket launcher to kill everyone in the base.

He returned to Colleen’s base so Maggie could bandage up a stab wound he got at Zarukhar’s base. Maggie taught him [Medical Treatment (Basic)] and [Medical and Medicinal Knowledge (Basic)]. Kieran told Colleen everything he did with Zarukhar and Zennings, then he got the notification that the dungeon was ending. Colleen helped Kieran gather all the loot he could carry despite still being injured, and he was teleported out of the dungeon.
