Shang left the Caves for the first time in a long while.
He jumped out of the hole in the ground and appeared in the Wasteland.
At the moment, it was in the middle of the day, and plenty of warriors and Mages were running around, earning money.
In comparison to 30 years ago, the number of beasts Shang could see had been drastically reduced.
With the increased power of the average warrior, they didn't need to form teams anymore, essentially multiplying the number of hunters.
However, in order to stop the hunters from eradicating the entire beast population, several new rules had to be put into place.
For example, hunting in the Caves now required a hefty entrance fee. Additionally, more beasts in the Wild Forest had been put on the Blacklist so that they could grow up and be hunted in the Wasteland.
The Day of Chaos had also become much more manageable due to the reduced number of beasts.
