Chapter 73: Assassin Brotherhood
The journey from Crystalized Stone Town to the Golden Gate Kingdom’s capital city, Golden Card City, was safe. And nothing major occurred except some annoying monsters that he agroed when he got a bit closer to Lake Forest’s edge, and they detected him.
The most annoying part about the journey itself is the duration it took someone to reach the capital city of the kingdom...it took him 2.5 hours of continuous running with only some rest here and there to refresh his mind to be thirty minutes away from the capital.
Running was taxing on players, and stamina couldn’t be depleted yet, but if he overdid it, his mind would become foggy, and many things would start feeling off to him. Such a thing would force him to go offline and reset his five senses, as the human brain wasn’t made to run for such a long duration.
Hence, he took some rest here and there to shake off that feeling.
Not having a mount was the most frustrating thing for Yone, and he knew the blessing people felt after level 40 would come later in the game. Having to run such long durations and even walk was tiring by itself, much less fight bandits and other things.
Indeed!
It should be known that the AI made sure to make the game as real and hard as possible; hence, bandits, monsters, and other similar situations one would read about in fantasy novels all existed in the game.
This is the reason in the first place that one needed level 10 to travel to the capital city. After all, if one didn’t have such a level and means to protect himself, then by no means would he ever reach the city unless he had bodyguards.
Even a party of 10 players around the levels of 7 to 9 wouldn’t reach the capital city without wiping, much less solo players.
The reason for that was the bandits’ level...the bandits around the capital were all beyond level 10, with a minimum level of 14, which made it impossible for anyone below level 10 to cross it on foot or alone.
