Daniel weaved silently through the labyrinthine streets of the Artist's city, steadily drawing closer to the massive water tank at its center.
Even just reading the description in the system prompts left him with an overwhelming sense of helplessness and suffocation.
No wonder his mission had only required him to inflict 10% damage on a Gold-Rank World Boss.
Even that had already seemed impossibly difficult—now the context made perfect sense.
Just then, he noticed something strange—his body was beginning to undergo a subtle change.
More peculiarly, dark clouds had begun to gather in the skies above.
Daniel paused, startled. This sensation—it was oddly familiar.
It felt exactly like the moment he had first arrived at the Star Upgrade Hall to accept the Star Upgrade Quest.
Could it be… that the Artist's city also housed a Star Upgrade Hall?
Without hesitation, Daniel immediately sent his clone stationed near Castle Mington to head straight for the Star Upgrade Hall.
