They could try to outrun the beasts, but the longest they could do it for was 5 minutes; after that was the time when the real deals came out—the beasts with levels higher than 20 and 25.
For those beasts, catching up to some humans with a level below 25 or close to 25 was no big deal, much less the humans who had their level pushed to 17 or 18 with the past of their coins.
The worst thing for these people was that they couldn't even hide as the people—the ones who didn't have penalties like them—in the other areas did. They were unlucky to have Alex as the guardian in the sub-scenario.
