Limitless Path

They spent the rest of the afternoon in training, Beth having the others use their Presences, though they weren't able to replicate her methods just yet. That had them end a bit early, at least compared to Beth's usual schedule, and this time Soph was alert enough to head back to their family home with Kim without feeling it was dangerous. Beth, Blood, and Sabs headed back to their room to clean up, eat, and hit the sack for the night, with Beth expressing to Sabs that they were going to go back to what they had been working on, leaving the other three with their trainers for the next few weeks.

The next morning, they were up early and ready quickly, Sabs splitting off from the two before they retreated to 'their' farming spot. Beth made sure they found a small alcove in the rocks, somewhere that she could set the gate up so that it wouldn’t be seen by anyone running through the area not taking the time to scan the area thoroughly. She was just a bit concerned that anyone like Bronson or his team might stumble upon them, though she knew those kinds of peoples and groups were still quite rare on Earth. She wasn't, in point of fact, totally sure how Bronson's team had managed to tear through the high one hundreds at the same kind of speed she and Blood did. Unless…they found somewhere that was time-dilated to take advantage of and get a decent number of very quick levels. She would have to ask Tazeen if they could maybe get a little info out of Bronson at some point before his fines were paid up.

They spent the next two weeks on their farm game, as they had been, a total of twenty weeks passing for them of subjective time. The biggest problem they had in these levels, the rather early ones, was the need for them to run far from the gate to find something challenging, Beth lamenting her lack of more precise control over the gate. They still made great progress, getting more than thirty levels in those twenty weeks of grinding, moving them to just under level one hundred fifty. They took two days off back at the Hall, checking in with the others to find them still working hard and training hard, though they didn't push themselves the same way Beth and Blood did.

Afterwards, it was out again for more grinding, repeating the pattern again as they fought for two weeks, or twenty weeks to them, trying to get as close to two hundred as possible. This was likely the last rotation before it really slowed down, Beth recalling what it was like to push through one-seventy through two hundred last time. Even so, they made great time, still aided by the extra stats they had carried over from their first rebirth. They were able to blow past the one-fifty mark, and even the one sixty mark, heading back to the Hall to rest at level one hundred sixty-five, Beth looking over their stats as they returned for another 'weekend.'
