"Keep moving!"

Jake shouted as he looked forward. This was something that he had never seen before.

He was never in the eastern side of the expedition, and in his past life, he never bothered to look at accounts of what happened here.

So he had to go with his gut on this one. He was almost in the same stage as the others, with no further knowledge of what could happen.

As he looked around, he had a strong feeling that something was watching them, but he had no idea what it was.

"Now that the wolves have already attacked us, multiple waves should come crashing at us soon enough. I don't know how much longer we might have to keep this up if we want to get to the first checkpoint." Jake thought to himself.

As he was mumbling, he made sure to take a quick survey of what was going on behind his back as well.

Player satisfaction was at the forefront of his mind. Sure, he was one of the first to start paying with coins, but that didn't mean he paid really well.

The other guilds used their reserves of cash to keep up, and that meant that Jake had to keep proving to his men that his guild was the one to be at.

"What are you glancing at all the time? For a guild leader, you seem really nervous now." Myriad Arrows asked.

"Nervous? What about? I am just curious. About what is happening behind me. That's all." Jake dismissed what Myriad Arrows said as he glanced to his left at the other guild leaders.

"Where is Phoenix?" Jake frowned.

"You didn't see her leave? She was tired of walking all this time so she went to the back, with someone else leading their battalion. Soon enough, Lone Wolf might do that as well." Myriad Arrows said.

"I can see where they are coming from. I mean, all this walking, it is kind of tiring. Walking ahead of everyone else is a little irritating as well, knowing everyone is staring at you." Myriad Arrows said.

"Well, you and her are cut from the same cloth. Not to mean any offense, but you do have similar backgrounds." Jake shrugged.

"It does make sense why you would understand what she feels." He chuckled.

"I am not like her. Not one bit." Myriad Arrows growled in return. He looked away, displeased by what Jake had said.

Laughing, Jake turned front as he scanned the perimeter once more. This was his job, one that he couldn't ignore even though the last hour of walking and scanning yielded him nothing.

"I can't seem to shake this weird feeling." Jake muttered as he tapped his right leg.

"What did you say?" Myriad Arrows asked.

"Nothing. Just keep your eye out. One hour and nothing from our opponents means that something is going to happen. Something interesting. We can't afford to have any losses so early into the checkpoint." Jake said.

"Yeah, I know. But when I look at this, I wonder, how long is each checkpoint going to be?" Myriad Arrows asked.

"We won't be here forever. Everytime we find shelter, we will start rotating log outs, and have some rest. The other guilds took a few days to get to the place they lost at. So we might also take a day or two to get there." Jake said.

"But don't take my word for it. We might get there much earlier than that. After all, compared to the other guilds, we are much more prepared." Jake smiled.

He stretched his arms slightly as he put his sword away. Holding it was wearing his right arm slowly.

,m "Well, I just know that the way things are going right now, everyone is shaken to the core. They seem to think that the giant we all saw is going to come for them sooner or later." He said

"The giant? You have got to be kidding me. We are in a game. Even if it does come for us, the worst that could happen is that we die and we revive back into the game. Don't tell me that all of them have not died even once?" Jake shook his head.

"That's not it. But after seeing that, who in their right mind would have the motivation to keep going? I mean, look at that thing? Even later on, how can we fight that thing?" Myriad Arrows said, raising his voice.

"Not you as well! I can't believe I have to convince you that this isn't something you have to worry about. They said the fifth checkpoint! We are at the first." Jake said, shaking his mind and clicking his tongue.

"Just keep walking. I will deal with this later. Trust me, we are not going to face that thing anytime soon. The game has a little sense. It wouldn't make the expedition impossible. If it were, then why would it even exist?" Jake asked.

"Just look at it like this. Maybe it is just an Easter egg, one that means nothing more than a ruse. Focus on what is going on right now, that is going to reward you."

"The expedition already got you one more epic item than you already had. Isn't that good?" Jake said.

He turned back slightly at the front line that was a few feet away from him.

"You guys as well. From my guild, whoever performs really well in this upcoming fight is going to see the benefits. So instead of worrying about the giant that you saw, worry about the fight that might come next." Jake raised his voice.

"There you go, practically promising them another epic item." Myriad Arrows sighed.

"Shhh!"

"Don't go shushing me. I am the only one with reason in this gu-"

Before Myriad Arrows could say anything else, Jake put his hand on Myriad Arrows' mouth with his left hand.

As for his right, it was holding the Sword of Misery.

"We have company."
