Sanctuary’s leader, Warlord, wasted no time voicing his strong disapproval. “That’s essentially using them as meat shields,” he remarked with a clear tone of discontent.

Red_King echoed a similar sentiment. “I couldn’t agree more. The city wall is sturdier than any tank, but if we put the tanks up front to be the first to fall, their sacrifice becomes meaningless. Especially during the early hours of the event. It’s just not fair,” he objected. Red_King knew that once the tanks perished, they would respawn inside the gate, struggling to exit and rejoin the battle. They’d need precious time to recover, rendering them unable to contribute damage or score until the villains breached the gate. This setup would disproportionately favor the DPS classes.

Arcana stood his ground, convinced that his idea was indeed the best course of action. He tried to reassure the other leaders. “The tanks don’t need to charge in right away when the monsters arrive. We should allow the ranged DPS players to launch their attacks first. The tanks can initiate combat once the enemies cross a certain threshold. Our primary objective is to ensure they don’t breach the city gate,” Arcana elaborated, emphasizing the plan’s nuances.

Elio found Arcana’s proposal intriguing. He pondered it for a moment before voicing his thoughts. “You know what? I think this plan might work,” Elio stated, considering the potential benefits.

Arcana’s face lit up with hope as he turned to Elio. “See, it makes sense, doesn’t it?” he sought Elio’s support.

Elio nodded in agreement, further expounding on the strategy. “Indeed. The key is for our tanks to maintain a safe distance, securing their designated area without pushing too deep into the enemy territory. Healers can lend support from above the wall, making it less likely for us to succumb quickly. The important aspect is that we avoid venturing too far into enemy lines and immediately retreat to the wall when our HP drops to one-quarter of the total,” Elio detailed the plan to everyone, highlighting the importance of a strategic fallback.

Arcana’s suggestion seemed to trigger a shift in perspective for both Red_King and Warlord. They reconsidered their initial objections in light of the new details presented.

Arcana’s suggestion prompted a reevaluation of their initial reservations by Red_King and Warlord. The exchange was positively charged, and Arcana was energized by the response. “Exactly!” he exclaimed enthusiastically, thrilled that his idea was gaining traction.

Justice.Bringer chimed in with another suggestion. “We could also assign a few priests to assist the tanks when they respawn at the gate. Some of our tanks have substantial HP pools, and relying solely on potions can be quite challenging,” he explained. His idea was met with thoughtful nods of agreement from Red_King and Warlord.

Red_King mulled over the idea. “Hmm… this isn’t a bad idea,” he admitted, with Warlord nodding in agreement beside him.

‘Yup, not bad.’ Allen observed their discussions carefully. While he couldn’t help but admit that the plan had merit, his mind was already racing, devising potential countermeasures to stay ahead in the game.

The conversation shifted toward the dark tower in the city of Ront, the leaders delved into discussing strategies to overcome the formidable mob monsters inhabiting that ominous structure. Ideas flowed freely, with each leader exchanging thoughts on how best to tackle the challenging foes within.

Allen, on the other hand, found his interest waning during this part of the conversation. The dark tower and its monstrous inhabitants were beyond his immediate reach and influence. His primary focus lay elsewhere – collecting more mini and boss monsters to bolster his own power and strategic advantage. While the guild leaders contemplated their next moves, Allen continued to formulate his plans in the background, searching for opportunities to strengthen his position. 𝗻𝐨𝐯𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

After five minutes of listening to the guild leaders’ discussions, Allen decided it was time to make his exit. He discreetly left the area and began searching for Larissa. To his surprise, he found her still standing in front of the fruit vendor, her character appearing to be AFK.

Allen couldn’t help but smirk as he engaged in the virtual conversation with Larissa. He swiftly typed out his message, eager to move on from the awkward situation they’d found themselves in.

Al: Are you done yet? I want to check the market.

Larissa briefly observed Sophia’s performance before shifting her attention back to Allen. She acknowledged his message with a nod and gracefully exited the scene. She’d wanted to eavesdrop on Sophia’s conversation a little longer, but it had become increasingly clear that Sophia was indulging in a bit of humble flexing while feigning innocence.

Their discreet eavesdropping adventure, however, was about to be short-lived as Sophia suddenly became aware of their presence. Her eyes locked onto Allen’s avatar from the distance.

Allen and Larissa strolled casually toward the market, leaving the somewhat uncomfortable encounter with Sophia behind them. The market square was a bustling hub of activity, though it didn’t quite match the frenetic pace of Ront City’s trading district. Instead, it exuded an air of sophistication.

Despite the relatively smaller crowd, the market boasted a diverse range of high-level goods. Unlike the merchants in Ront City, who mainly peddled basic supplies and equipment, the sellers here catered to a more discerning clientele. It was a place where players with a taste for finer gear came to browse, haggle, and strike deals.

The stalls and shops were neatly arranged, showcasing an impressive assortment of weaponry, armor, and magical items. Banners and signs fluttered in the digital breeze, each one vying for the attention of potential buyers. The market’s atmosphere crackled with anticipation, as players perused rare and enchanted items, searching for that perfect upgrade to boost their stats and abilities.

The traders and buyers in the market were a seasoned bunch, players who had ventured far and wide in the virtual realm, amassing experience and levels. They carried an air of confidence, each one meticulously inspecting the wares on display, their eyes keenly assessing the statistics and attributes of the items.
