The population of Torana town had exploded in the past few days as more and more new players arrived in the Dreamverse after the President's announcement. It had changed the atmosphere of the town.
Different from its deserted past, the Military Tree was bustling with activity. Hundreds of Players were constantly ascending and descending from its branches. Some had come to undertake or submit quests while others for the Libraries in the Instructor Halls.
Amidst these throngs of Players, a team of nine stood aloof, watching the players come and go. These were the trainees Samar had recruited for his raid.
Along with the former 'Party No.2' stood four new faces. They fidgeted impatiently as they awaited Samar's arrival.
"Hey Mochi, is this Samar really as good as you say?" The Lv18 Spirit Speaker that he had invited asked, still unable to believe the incredible stories he had heard about him.
