Bab 215: Hard Mode

In the Underground Chambers.

Within a circle of soft green light, ten well-equipped players were sprinting headlong for the crossroads up ahead. From the confident pace of their advance, one could tell that this group—the first one to make it down into the underground chambers—were far from a bunch of green novices.

Suddenly!

A Bowmaster, in charge of watching their rear, gave a soft call for everyone to halt. Silently, he signaled, 'Listen!'

'What is it?'

Several players in the group looked about in confusion.

"Shh… seems like there might be something behind us."

The Bowmaster kept his voice very low, and as he leaned over slightly, the league emblem on his leather chestpiece was revealed—a ghoul's claw in flames upon a clear background.
