As the players delved into the quest details, their intrigue grew.

Escort the guild to the destination?

Why is the term guild suddenly thrown in?

Where can we find this guild?

A group of merchants is called a guild, but for a guild to exist, shouldnt there be merchants first?

Is this some sort of role-play scenario?

If someone plays the role of a merchant, do others act as their protectors?

Amidst the puzzled chatter, laughter burst forth from the Angels lips.

[Role-play? Haha, were not asking you to do that. We wouldnt dare.]Visit no(v)eLb(i)n.com for the best novel reading experience

So, what exactly does it entail

[Literally, just escorting the guild.]

So, where can we locate this guild

[Humans may have a reputation for being inferior, but I never imagined you were this clueless.]

In the face of the Angels mockery, the players fell into contemplative silence.

Despite their idle gossip about the Angel, they had a firm grasp of the intricate web of alliances.

[Do you all think youre the sole inhabitants of this world? Goblins, Angels, Nols, Orcs, and other raceshavent you encountered them already?]

Ah

No way

[Yes, these guilds hail from different realms. There are three races of guild in totalHuman guild, Elf guild, and Dwarf guild. Youll need to pick one and serve as their escort.]

We get to choose which race to escort?

Do Elves and Dwarves also have their guilds?

Well, setting that aside, are you suggesting that the Elves weve only read about in novels actually exist?

The prospect of encountering fantastical races from another dimension in the flesh sent shivers down some players spines.

[The escort mission will last for 5 hours. If you successfully deliver the guild to their destination without harm, the quest will be considered complete. Naturally, youll face monsters during the journey, but dont fretyou wont be alone.]

We wont be alone?

Are we forming parties like we did in the 6th round?

Good point. If were all escorting the guilds together, whats the basis for ranking?

I completely forgot to ask about that.

And whats the deal with these traitors? f*ck.

Conversations about the quest were buzzing, and Min Juri joined in.

Black Scythe, we have to pick one of the three races, right?

Thats correct.

Do you know where youre headed?

Well

There were three types of guild, and Ryu Min had a hunch about which one would be the most popular.

Most folks will probably flock to Human, then Elf, and finally Dwarf.

Humans were familiar and comfortable for most, given their shared race.

Elves attracted those who had always dreamed of meeting them in the flesh.

As for Dwarves, they didnt seem as appealing, evoking images of elderly mountain dwellers.

If I had to choose, Id go with the Dwarves.

Having been through multiple rounds, Ryu Min was well aware of the different difficulty levels associated with each.

Dwarf is the easiest, followed by Elf, and then Human.

In other words, the place with the most participants was also the most challenging.

Higher difficulty zones featured monsters that required a minimum level of 50, including trolls, ghouls, skeletons, and minotaurs.

The mid-level Elf Guild had harpies, lizardmen, and werewolves.

The lower difficulty zone featured monsters similar to orcs.

If you want an easier time passing the round, the Dwarf option is the way to go.

The main quest primarily involves escorting the guild, but just escorting it doesnt guarantee passing the mission.

Escorting is the basic requirement for the round clearance, but it doesnt mean youll pass just by doing that. Rankings are determined based on the order in which individuals acquire the most contribution.

At first glance, it may seem like a party quest where everyone escorts the guild together, but in reality, survival is decided by each individuals performance.

Competition is necessary.

If the monsters are weak, you can receive a higher contribution, so its better to focus on the Dwarf guild, which has a lower difficulty level, to secure a higher ranking.

Heo Taeseok might not have known this fact, but Min Juri did.

Ive provided all this information to her through my prophecies.

In other words, choosing the Dwarf guild means you can easily clear the rounds.

However, Min Juri seemed to be in deep thought.

And the reason was quite simple.

The Dwarf guild has a lower difficulty level, because of that fact, the monsters are weak, which means fewer experience points.

Lower monster levels mean lower experience points.

On the flip side, higher difficulty zones offered tougher challenges and higher XP rewards.

So, its a choice between low risk and low reward, or high risk and high reward.
