Just one more step.
The instant everyone stepped into the Land of Chaos, they felt as though a wooden club struck the back of their heads. Although the strong Order barrier cleared out the ever present illusionary fog, even Rhode felt like something inside him was cut off entirely. It was the connection between the people and the land of Order, like a fish leaving the water and losing its source of survival. Not only that, but Rhode also felt as though the ground beneath his feet had turned into a soft sponge. He scanned around him and all he saw was blurry illusions.
The others felt the same. Marlene turned pale instantly and limped like a drunk, holding onto Anne to keep her balance. On the other side, Lize fell on her bum immediately and raised her arms blindly to support her back onto her feet. However, her hands weren’t pressing on the ground at all. Anne did much better than everyone else. She looked left and right curiously at the painful crowd and didn’t seem to be affected by the Chaos at all.
“Pardon us. Please wait for a moment.”
Rhode requested. Of course, he witnessed the smiles of disdain and mockery from the three Order Refugees. However, he wasn’t embarrassed by the reactions of his subordinates because this was absolutely normal. In the game, when players entered the Land of Chaos, they reacted this way after losing their connections to Order. Therefore, players would often remain on the spot for a few moments in order for their bodies to instinctively reconnect to the source of Order inside them.
But now, Rhode’s subordinates were in so much pain. Joey puked and sprawled out on the ground while Randolf lost his balance and bumped into Sol. The pitiful Sol shivered as though he were on drugs and the push from Randolf instantly brought him to the ground. On the other hand, Sovann and Marfa tried to uphold their strong images as leaders, but they appeared more like rocking tumblers instead.
On the other hand, Orchid Heart continued to look sleepy as she stood by the side. Gillian stomped her foot onto John’s bum who was running about like a headless mosquito and kicked him back to the team.
What a terrible mess…
Rhode sighed helplessly. However, most players who entered the Land of Chaos reacted worse. Many of them ran wildly while some instinctively cast magic spells and relied on the power of their magic equipment to lessen the painful effects. As a result… They should be glad that it didn’t cost them anything to be revived. If not, Rhode wasn’t sure how many players would have gone bankrupt.
“Don’t cast any spells!”
Rhode warned loudly to ensure that everyone heard him.
“Stay where you are! No matter what, imagine that you’re a sculpture that can’t move!”
The panicky group calmed down gradually after trying their best. A few minutes later, they finally relaxed as the connection to the source of Order in them was restored.
“Oh my goodness…”
Marlene stood up with a blush and looked at Anne who was chuckling away. This was the first time that Anne saw Marlene in this manner. As for Marlene… Yes. This was definitely something that she didn’t wish to recall in the future.
“… I didn’t expect it… to feel so terrible…”
Lize covered her mouth and her pale expression was as though someone had punched her in her stomach.
“Now. Your body has connected to the source of Order in this place.”
Rhode clapped his hand to gather everyone’s attention. Then, he pointed at the beautiful defensive barrier around them.
“In here, you will slowly adapt to Order, but as this Order isn’t natural; it will affect you differently from the Order in the Light Mainland. Stay cautious and slowly get used to moving about in this territory. Don’t assert your usual strength here.”
