Struggling to Survive in Hell Difficulty

Chapter 101.

Back when I visited the Guild, I was expecting to at least receive some Quests pertaining to the monsters outside the Town. I thought that would allow me to gauge my current strength against the monsters which obviously had much higher Level than me while I tried to get some Gold on the side.

But even after using the specific phrases taught by Plina to make the Terian give me all the Quests that matched my condition, all I got was that talk-and-fetch Quest that got paused by force because of Terian himself.

"...is there something else that I can do..."

It was 03:30 A.M, which meant I only had an hour and half left to stay online. And two of the Quests that I currently had were both connected to Terian who had retreated to the second floor of the Guild and had not come down. That obviously meant the only thing I would be able to do was the first and only Town Quest...

[Cannot view the explicit details of the Quest]

[Find out more about the situation in Dune to unlock more details]

...but when I clicked on the Quest, these were the words that appeared from the system messages.

"...was getting to know about the drought, broken waterway, and everything else in Dune not enough!? Or is there something else that I had to know to unlock the real details!?"

I could only scratch my head angrily as I could not find an answer, but eventually I could only heave a sigh reluctantly.

Thinking again, this game was obviously putting emphasis on exploration and uncovering things as the player went. While the starting Town Proteus was basically handholding the player with simple Quests, I obviously could not expect the same treatment in Dune which was one of the most difficult Town in Miriande Gloralis (according to Plina, at least).

If anything, my Tutorial in Hell Difficulty was already proof enough that I had to find both my objective and the solution by discovering the Cyclops, which was not explicitly explained by the game system.

"...Hell Mode... huh..."

I opened the recently received chat from Plina. After opening the link in a different window, I began to skim through the contents of the shared guide.

Even though I only took a glance, I instinctively understood that this guide was not much different from what she had taught me earlier. The knowledge within was developed and shared by the people within the Community Hub. These people were united by a collective thirst for knowledge and a shared passion to explore into the expanses of the mysterious game world of Miriande Gloralis

The guide was comprehensive, yet it had its boundaries. It offered an abundance of strategies and many necessary know how which were tailored to assist newcomers and veterans alike. There were also explanations on how to get through the general troubles in Tutorial difficulties, but the explanation was only until the [Very Hard] Difficulty of the Tutorial.

The moment I moved to the next page, there was mostly a blank page, consisting of only a single sentence.

'This segment will be updated when there is someone who had gotten through the Hell Difficulty'.

The simple line of sentence made me inadvertently stop moving my legs.

I was the only person who had finished the Hell Difficulty's infamous Tutorial... or at least until the issue with Muriel occurred. I had not intended to announce it to the world, but choosing to livestream my playthrough for the sake of views and money ended up attracting the attention of the community.
