Williard and Remia proceeded towards level 90 Zone, which is a simple barren land like level 50 Zone but that's what makes them the most dangerous and the least crowded places. As one can see monsters everywhere, the monsters can also smell the players and without a large party, it is very difficult for someone to level up here.
But for someone like Williard, who has a bodyguard of level 120 Guardian and has the ability to fly without losing mana, it's a blessed land. As the first normal monster looking like a large hound but have two tusks from their mouth, with HP around 100K died, Williard received his fair share of 15,342 EXP after 30 seconds. Then, the remaining hounds lunged forward collectively to bite Remia who was alone on the ground while Williard was flying in the sky in a low altitude, just 5m above to stay out of their range and used Absolute freeze to freeze all the monsters around 20m and then, used Golem in attack mode to attack every one of them with Remia.
Just after 45 minutes of effective hunting, Williard brightly glowed in the sky followed by level up notification along with receiving a bunch of other notifications as well.
"Congratulations, you leveled up. You reached level 100."
"You received a Skill point."
"You reached the maximum level. Advance to 2 star Elementalist to receive EXP again."
"Congratulations, you are the first player in East Ocean City to reach level 100. You are awarded 1000 fame and 2 gold coins as a reward."
"Congratulations, you are the first player in the Llyne Kingdom to reach level 100. You are awarded 3000 fame and 5 gold coins as a reward."
"Congratulations, you are the ninth player in the world to reach level 100. You are awarded 1000 fame as a reward."
"Quest: East Ocean City's Mayor wants to congratulate you, meet him.
Reward: 10% discount in all the shops located in the city."
"Quest: You reached the maximum level. Go to your predecessor and receive the 2 star Quest.
Reward: Level limit extends to level 200."
Without caring about other notifications, Williard mumbled, "Predecessor? But I inherited from a book. Let's confirm and see what happens."
As he accepted the quest, he received a notification.
"Your Predecessor is dead. Inheritance Quest is removed and a new one is added."
"Quest: Your Predecessor is long dead. You inherited his legacy without passing his test. His spirit is angry that his successor didn't respect him. Visit his grave and pay your respects with an Orchid flower, a Bey leaf, and a level 100 gold grade weapon to appease his spirit and receive his blessing and an inheritance Quest to become 2* Elementalist.
Reward: Level limit extends to level 200 and random stat increase."
Williard thought, "What a troublesome quest. Where in the hell should I go look for Orchid flower in this game and what the hell is this Bey leaf? I never heard of it either in the real-world or in the game, even in the past. May be Mayor might have an idea about it."
Then, he looked at Remia and said, "Let's ignore these monsters and go and look for the king here." Without wasting any time, Williard started to fly while Remia started running ignoring the attacks and entered the level 95 Zone, which is also a barren land but strangely, he can see far away, there's a building with a long wall stretching for thousands of kilometers in a wide range.
"Remia, you see that building? Let's ignore these and go there," as Williard ordered her, Remia replied, "yes, Lord Time Traveler." Previously, as he was in the need of EXP, Williard didn't miss the chance of earning free EXP by killing the monsters, which got in their way, but now that he no longer needed it, they just ignored them and just ran towards the destination. After attacking and chasing for a while, all the hounds returned to their position and settle down.
Five minutes later, as they reached the end of the wall and killed the monsters that followed them, Williard saw there are several large hounds, with two heads roaming left to right and right to left and instead of what Williard thought as a building, he saw there was a large prison cell with a large keyhole at the side. Then, he inspected them.
Great Wall
Description: A wall that separates East Ocean City and its wilderness and the rest of the world. An invisible barrier was cast by Archmage Solomon up on top of it. Until it is lifted, none of the outsiders can enter the region. Only an Ascended can lift the barrier placed by Archmage Solomon.
"What a description. According to this description, shouldn't the seaport also be protected by a barrier? But I safely entered the sea without any issues. Did they forget to put the barrier since there are no Cities or monsters nearby? Or did an Ascended passed by and lifted the barrier by mistake?"
Krugo (Elite)
Level: 99
HP: 1,100,000/1,100,000
Description: Guards of the Endre Prison.
Endre Prison
Description: A prison that was specifically built to imprison the most dangerous monster as well to safeguard the dungeon of Hell.
"The Heroic boss will be in that prison, most likely. I guess I can get the key from these Elite ones as they are termed as Guards," after thinking for a while, Williard spoke, "Remia, let's kill these two-headed hounds. We'll take care of them separately. Let me know if you see any Key dropped after they died.
While Remia dashed towards the left and started tanking two to three Krugos by herself, Williard flew towards the far-right and chose one monster, which was alone. First, he used Absolute freeze to paralyze a Krugo for 20 seconds, then, immediately after freezing, he summoned an Earth Golem and put it in attack mode and then attacked them with fire arrows. With Earth Golem, that has 200% attack and 10% attack buff, his level 5 fire arrow that has 150% damage, along with the Passive Skill, "Aura of Elementalist" that increases damage by 10%, he was able to take out 20% of its HP by the time 20 seconds are up.
Then, he drank mana potion, which recovered 10 MP of his 80MP that was used up, with 224 remaining.
Williard, then, pulled the string and conjured an Ice Arrow and shot towards the monster, which froze it up while dealing around 10,982 dmg, as a critical hit appeared on its head. Since it was just a normal freeze with no paralyzing effects like Absolute freezing Skill, Krugo was able to break it out easily within 2 seconds and started to attack the Golem.
Williard then stopped attacking and started to heal the Golem, which has the same amount of HP and defense like him. As his defense is very low, damages like 4213, 4511, 3994, etc… started to appear but it was easily healed by Williard with a basic Healing skill at the cost of his mana.
For every 30 seconds, Williard is releasing an Ice Arrow to freeze up the monster, and the rest of the time, he was just drinking the mana potions and healing the Golem while it was attacking the Krugo. And for every 3 minutes, as the Absolute freeze cooldown time over, he once again cast it and let the Golem do its job.
Like that, within just fifteen minutes, Williard was able to defeat 3 Krugos but his face was devoid of happiness after realizing, by that time, the remaining 9 were killed by Remia. Just as he expected, Remia found a key from the last guard and gave it to him.
After taking half n hour rest to recover all the mana, Williard flew towards the Prison cell. He heard a growl and saw a huge three pairs of red eyes, inside the dark cell as he stopped before the bars. He raised the Key and put it inside the keyhole and turned it anti-clockwise.
