Chapter 146: Local Value
"Me and Marta are going to go to Gate 9 to fight Goliath," Sun-young declared.
Normally, the objective would take forty or so days, so there were certainly gates out there that were still loaded with Goliaths. Kazi had already deduced that Gates didn’t create a new simulation every time they entered a Server Room. No, there were a set number of Server Rooms and therefore gates and objectives.
"You think you can beat him? Goliath was much stronger than William, and William has over double your strength. One wrong move and he will kill you," Kazi pointed out. Sun-young had been told of Goliath, from his intuitive battle senses to his incredible balance of weaponry. Beating him in close-quarters, especially when he didn’t use magic, would be impossible for her unless she had an in-depth plan.
"We will take a day or two to practice team attacks at the camp," Marta said. "We should be fine."
Kazi hummed. "That’s cutting it close. You might not make it to Gate 10’s opening."
"Better to be leveled up than not to be," Sun-young stated.
"Plus..." Marta swung her staff confidently, "it will be a good warm up."
"Goliath is not a warm-up," William said. "Trust me, blocking his attacks is like hell. My wrist is still sprained."
"I know, I’ve seen his moves, which is why we won’t do that. I have power, Sun-young has speed. We will clutch it out."
William sighed and shook his head. "Please don’t underestimate him and get yourselves killed. I’ve leveled up and I still wouldn’t want to fight him one-on-one."
"What about you guys?" Kazi gestured to William and Elena.
