2 Q&A

„ First thing first, I don't have enough information. I don't know anything about this world. Not that there is anyone I could ask these things from around here, and the information provided by the original message doesn't tell me much... wait, I got it." Immediately after that he once again opened the help function.

„Hello welcome to customer support my name is Apollo how may I help you"

„ Hi I was wondering could you answer some of my questions."

„Certainly, but you will have to pay a certain price for every answer. Is that alright?"

„ What do you mean? Isn't the help free at least that was how it was on every other service that had this function."

„ Well yes typically these types of options are free, but then again how many of those other services has sent you to another world to participate in a death game? And I don't make the rules I just follow them, so every piece of information, about this world, shall cost you 5 gold coins."

„ Ok so I can know anything I want, isn't this kinda broken?"

„Yes sir as long as you can pay the price you can find out anything that you want, but be warned that it is not that easy earning gold and besides the information that mght be useful to you is hardly worth all that much, we are charging you for the information that even a small child will know, so you should not worry and ask your questions carefully."

„Ok the first question: are there other dungeons besides the ones that belong to contestants in that world? And if so how did they have there and what use do they have?"

„I'm sorry sir but those are multiple questions would you still like me to answer them?"

„ How come those are counted as separate questions, all I'm asking is related to each other so can't they be counted as parts of a whole?"

„ Sorry sir hose are the rules, complex questions that have several important components shall be counted as seperate more basic questions. Back to the questions do you still want me to answer them your previous question can be divided into three and to get your answers that will only cost you 15 gold."

„Ok I still want to know about the presence of other dungeons and their usefulness to me."

„Alright sir. The answers to you questions are: yes, there are other dungeons and you can get unique skills through them."

„So I can have more than 1 unique skill"

„yes sir by destroying a dungeon core you, and any other resident of this world shall be granted a unique skill. „

„Ok next question: how ae thge contestants are going to be redistributed across this new world?"

„That will depend on the contestants themselves, everyoe is given a list of possible locations where their dungeons are going to be born, it is up to them to choose which ones that they want."

„Is it possible to have a dungeon underwater?"

„Yes, but contestants are advised to refrain from doing that because life forms living underwater are stronger than their counterparts on land."

„Ok how many different land masses there are?"

„ There are 6 continents and about 32792 different islands."

„How far has the local society advanced?

„ The global civilization has advanced to the city-state stage, but there are many differences depending on the geographical location as well as presence of various dungeons."

„How the contestants will b able to understand the language of the locals?"

„By the grace of our god you all shall be granted a passive skill that will enable you to understand both spoken and written language, if such exists, of the locals."

„Ok lastly do the other dungeons have the same naming scheme as the one that we will be using, and what are comman names that are used for the dungeons?"

„Yes as the rules dictate the dungeons are named with its accordance. The current trend are the German-Saxon type names."

„ Ok thank you very much for your assistance, that will be all."

„Yes sir thank you for your patronage 50 gold coins have been deduced from your account."

After that Q&A session The man decided to once again go through it and decide on his future course of action.

' First is the name... now that I think about it names change with the passing of time so just knowing from what language tree the name is doesn't xactly narrow it down by much if I don't know the preferable time period. Well I guess I could go with either the names popular during the city state period or the ones used in modern times. Then again it's not like I can just know the names that were popular in England or Germany in the ancient times just of the top of my head, so I guess that my only option is to choose the name that has been in circulation the longest.'

With the naming problem mostly taken care of the man, while still floating, thought about his further course of action.

'After the name there is the dungeon location and skill selection, I didn't ask any questions about that, but I think that there should be some kind of tutorial when we get to that part, It will be pretty boring from the viewers perspective if all of the challengers got stomped on the early stages of the game. I guess I should try and figure out my future game plan, well at least it's outline, I guess I start out by looking for the other contestants? But the world is huge and it is possible that everyone of us will be on a different land mass and with the civilization being less advanced the travel betwen the islands and the continents will be difficult. Ok first thing's first I establish a dungeon do a recon of the surrounding area of it and we'll go from there.'

After coming to this conclusion the tension on the man's face eased and a more or less confident expression appeared on his face.

'Alright let us get started.'
