Without a doubt, Gillian, the in-gah she was unable to display her powers, at least she was still able to assist in other ways She could observe his environments and would lessen Rhode’s burden

Of course This was only lis There was no way for her to see or hear a thousand h She wasn’t a human, however, her senses were much better than a human In this narrow and dark tunnel, she could easily detect the enemy distance, direction, speed and quantity with her ability

Rhode was unable to do this himself, of course But his ability to focus was top notch Although his actions were fast, eachand preparation

<<Deered by players unknowingly When they explored the underground ressive shorty After killing him, the player would then detect so athese abnor to various mine workers, churches, and the Mercenary association, they would discover a secret

Deep within the mines, there was a shaft that led directly to hell This ancient shaft was situated there eons ago, long before the Deep Stone City was built Because of the shaft, the entire terrain around the mines became a haven for demons and devils, who attracted humans inside In the end, justice eventually triumphs over evil and the shaft was re-sealed

However, the evil ritual sites within did not disappear after the sealing of the shaft Many years later, soreedy humans were naturally attracted to the ores within the ends They raised their excavating tools and dug into the sealed shaft That shorty was one of those workers He accidentally ed to discover the evil ritual site and drank the unholy spring water

Once humans drank the water, they would obtain a boost in their strength, but that would fade as time passed When that happens, it would cause an irresistible urge to drink it again toaddiction, one could never give up the lust for power once one experiences it Losing the poould be unbearable for them

After the mission was activated, the Mercenary association in Deep Stone City would collaborate to foration teaain

From then on, the mission had a time limit If the players were able to destroy the site within the tienerously with plenty of experience points, rewards and equipment However, if they failed to complete it, the consequence would be disastrous

A third of the people living underneath Deep Stone City would be lured by the shorty to taste the power of the spring water and they would transfor devils soon after These people would receive the Demon Lord’s beckon and proceed on to unseal the shaft The investigation party and the players would be the targets of these devils

Within the narrow tunnels, countless of demonic creatures would overwhelation party and the players could still work together to destroy these creatures If they were unable to succeed, the ation teas would proceed on to the surface, occupying the whole of Deep Stone city

The nored by many players because the time li: “Finish this mission quickly, if not there will be undesirable consequences” As this was ‘just another mission’ to many players who had already played countless of other si seriously

Furtherations, there were many troublesome sub-missions that seeave up after noticing the amount of effort required to coain some levels Why would they coop themselves in such a creepy place?

Fortunately it was just a game Players who died could be resurrected If it was reality, who kne eous men would had lost their lives to complete this mission

Rhode was able to co the mission ‘Demonic Shadows of the Haunted House’, he had been prompted on other hidden missions And also at that tinored this e on the surface and killed hu after, the h level that it sparked off retaliation froht in the middle of this incident, he became curious and decided to participate Eventually, he accomplished the mission successfully

That hy Rhode was very clear of this situation Thesewater should be roughly around level 20 Their current innate eleel, who had the holy elenificantly That hy Rhode chose this battle strategy: Firstly, coh a sneak attack and he will keep them busy with his oord skills Secondly, Celia would take advantage of the opportunity to folloith an attack Although she faced the risk of getting hit by Rhode’s sword attack, ultimately she was still a su spiritual energy

Those mercenaries definitely don’t take death as easily as Celia because they only have one life

Rhode’s ti was perfect

Once Rhode and Celia retreated into the darkness, the other mercenaries rushed over to the scene, their eyes red with fury It was obvious that they were filled with hatred All of theether with the pain in their bodies and the pressure of the baffling deaths of their comrades transformed into hatred They couldn’t wait to find the culprits and teach them a lesson

However, reality was cruel What they could only recognize were the after apart, but there were nothing left of their fallen coer and fear How could they even fight a battle if they couldn’t even find any traces of the murderer? Should they leave this place and coe for their fallen co their nah

Thus, at this critical juncture, it was better to rely on oneself

After a while, sohtly suggested to leave the place

However, Frank rejected this suggestion
