・It has been revealed that one of the two cities is Old Tokyo.

I regret buying that powered suit at such a high price… but I’m willing to forgive since they refunded the difference.

Heavy machine guns and the like have increased, finally giving us more means to take down enemies outside. I was finally recruited as an adventurer.

I’m the sort who gave up because there were too many character creation options, but can you make decent templates now?

＞＞726 Right now, the strong ones are:
Powered Armor Human with 4 points in 《Initial Funds UP》 to buy powered suits and heavy equipment.
Esper getting 《Psychokinesis》 《Enhanced Psychokinesis》 to rip out enemies’ organs.
Beastkin with 《Enhanced Strength》 《Avoid Instant Death》to use hit-and-run tactics (base stats can’t penetrate armor).
Cyborg getting 《Weapon Arms: Anti-Personnel Rifle》 《Improved Weapon Arms: Reduced Cooldown》 for sniping.
Basically, it’s better to assume that enemies moving that fast can’t be fought at close range except by Beastkin.

＞＞726 A Powered Armor Human build with 《Apollyon Control Manual》 《Apollyon Design Specifications》 《Starting Equipment: Apollyon Mass Product Type》 is also recommended.

＞＞727 Are the enemies really that strong? I don’t have a good image of it.
＞＞728 That’s Orange build, isn’t it? I don’t wanna start the game lugging around three pieces of trash…

They’re fast and tough, so the basic principle is to keep your distance and roast them with incendiaries. Can’t talk about hunting efficiency when getting killed means login restrictions.

Did we ever figure out the conditions for acquiring additional skills?
732 Anonymous Player
Same as jobs – some can be acquired. Basically you can get them through training and accumulating experience and level them up as you progress. The concept of Skill Points so far has only been seen at character creation.

I’m training with the Security Forces and the techniques for restraining guys with blades are hardcore, funny stuff. C’mon by and see it yourself. No joke, it feels more like we’re raising players’ skills rather than characters’.

＞＞733 You can learn a wide variety of skills like 《Arrest Techniques》 and 《Interrogation》 right? So jealous I could die.

Because the early adopters have an overwhelming advantage in this game. Right now the Security Forces aren’t accepting anyone new due to overpopulation, right? Never heard of a game with population caps even for normal jobs.

＞＞735 The update increased the city’s population so Security Forces slots also went up. Now’s the time to join if you’re going.

I’m in the Adventurer’s Guild and heard someone hunted like 10 machine beasts solo. Too strong???

Might’ve been a named NPC?

Sounds like it was a beastkin player. An NPC was gossiping about how she got in close and beat them all down.
741 Anonymous Player
＞＞740 Wow, that’s impressive. Isn’t this the game where all the self-proclaimed pro gamers tried it and got login restricted by death?

I heard the American server had players teaming up and heading out to conquer the west side of the city. What happened with that?

＞＞742 They got wiped out about 2 hours ago.

＞＞743 That was fast!

＞＞744 Inside towns your character’s body disappears when you log out. But outside it stays put. Despite that system they went out at night, the working members logged off, then they got attacked in that state and team wiped.

Isn’t this game impossible unless you’re a NEET or student?
747 Anonymous Player
Expeditions seem rough with that system.

A Security Forces old-timer says even going outside is reckless in the first place. The city was landed on a “Primordial Strain Type-UYK38 Corpse” so just not getting close to it is enough, and even operating the city defenses at max if machine beasts show up we might not make it.

More weird inexplicable setting stuff, huh?
750 Anonymous Player
We still have no clue about the worldview like why enemies even exist.
751 Anonymous Player
Even before that, why does this game have something like Orange Book in the first place? That’s the real mystery.
752 Anonymous Player
＞＞751 That’s a mystery to all mankind. He caused about 60 billion in losses with that upload, after all.

I have expectations he’ll screw up again somehow. I mean with those skill setups, progress looks tough from here…

＞＞753 More than that, what we should expect is Hiniru starting a playthrough of this game. Registration numbers in the millions so if it draws in newbies things will get even crazier.
755 Anonymous Player
＞＞754 That’s terrible news! A guy whose only skills are illegally streaming and verbal abuse playing this game will just give it a bad image temporarily, then make it decline into obscurity anyway.
756 Anonymous Player
This game already has the image of “Orange” all over it. Is there room for Hiniru to barge in?
