“ Oh, it seems the industry norm is to clear at least one dungeon on your own, then apply for a guild. “ Zion said into the camera, looking at the information. “ Are you not going to follow the norm ? “ The cameraman asked Zion. “ No. I don’t have time. I don’t think it makes a great difference in the guild’s opinion. So, I believe it’s better to act quickly now to submit my CV now rather than after almost all my friends are out doing the same thing. “ Zion opined. ‘ Ooooh ! Smart ! ‘ The camera man complimented Zion. The next guild even more strictly rejected him, just because he was a dungeon baby. So did the next guild, and the guild after. [ We do not accept applications from the Dungeon babies. ] The fourth guild put a plaque on the outside. It was a giant redgate in chinese style, with even the red lanterns & co, with all the bells and trappings of a martial arts dens. “ New hunter ? “ The door man asked Zion. “ Yes. “ Zion answered. The moment he did, the doorman point

Cerise’s mother was one of the most powerful awakeners belonging to the silversword guild. Thus, her treatment by the guild had always been good. Two years ago, the guild general manager changed. Her mother started going on tower quests under the influence of the new GM. Unlike the dungeon clearing which is over within hours, tower Quests last longer. Conversely, they give out equally great rewards. As such, tower player's children are supposed to be treated with greater respect, but reality is rather opposite. Tower gives one treasure, kills ten. The survivors would be hated by all, despite the dead players receiving their share. As such, the survivor’s children will become pariah’s. The tower quest her mother had completed had especially high mortality. In a day, Cerise and her brother became anyone’s game. That was all acceptable, till their mother went missing in the tower. All of a sudden, they can not live in the quarters they have lived their entire lives, but had to live

Cerise avoided all the pitfalls she knew about. She deployed the spy camera given by Zion. The feedback of the mana circle was greater than she expected. She was disoriented for a good minute. As long as she closes her eyes and concentrates, she can completely see the picture. She put one on Mary, the silversword orientation employee, another on Peter, the guy who harassed her. Yet another on the general manager Weiss, as she waited for her turn during the orientation. Just like before, they have told her all the F-rank dungeons are full till the end of the dayShe has a choice either to enter the E-rank dungeon, or wait for another month, after which, they still can not guarantee she enters the dungeon. Last time, she waited a month. For the entire month, enduring through peters harassment, Weiss’s coercion, and Mary’s disdain. She hoped her mother would come back from the quest to save her. However, after a week, all the tower entrances closed, locking in the players forever. Si

Zion noticed that Sheng family guards as soon as he exited the temple. Their faces are tired and annoyed. They seem to be following the live stream and following his footsteps since the morning. They finally reached him. Instead of running, Zion just messaged the cameraman. His current position right outside the pavilion is one of the rare locations in the park covered by CCTV. One of the young guards was about to move forward, but the older one stopped them with a gesture at the CCTV. There’s no way Zion is not going to take advantage of this detail. So, it seems the orders are to bring him back without creating a scene. TwelveInches is a fairly popular streamer. Even better, he is a streamer with a very annoying fan base, which can create fire out of water, especially when it comes to creating news. The cameraman happily returned. He was about to run out of things to do. Moreover, the number of viewers and discussion had all been very lively after the guild’s announcement. Many

Zion ran straight for the stairs. He had no idea he could move this fast. He flies up the stairs instead of moving up the stairs. Had he not been in such a hurry, he would realize that his body is moving at a higher strength. His foot slipped as soon as he put it on the supersmooth tiles of the hospital walkway. Zion did not think of correcting his posture. Instead, he braced for impact on the wall facing him, then slid sideways, so that he could reach the room faster. He even lowered his legs to let the shoes glide smoothly. The nurses at the reception did not even notice a person passed by because he crossed over the place far too quickly. Zion braked himself using the groove of the door, and pushed in the door of the room. The vitals monitor which was slightly beating with a small tick flatlined right in front of Zion. He did not even think. He braced his legs, jumped straight for the assailant’s head. The man got hit straight in his temple with a knee kick. He fell down
