The minutes ticked by.
Ten minutes passed.
The progress bar was exactly at the halfway mark.

The Tead Sanctuary members jumped back, digging their poles into the strow to stop.
“Cross the line, and you die.”
Riley’s voice wasn’t loud, but it carried perfectly across the silent wastes,
“Acting tough, are we?”
The silver knight sneered. “One girl against twenty of us? Dream on!”
“Boys, together! Her reload speed is trash! Rush her and it’s over!”
Confident in his superior plate armor, he triggered his Charge skill, lungeing toward Riley like a rabid bull.
He was a Level 13 Warrior with solid stats–an elite by average standards.
However, he was fighting Riley.
Faced with the charging knight, Riley didn’t even flinch.
She stowed the arbalest, gripped her dual axes with both hands, and met the man’s long blade head–on.
CLANG!!

An ear–splitting ring of metal echoed.
The silver knight felt an irresistible, mountain–shaking force travel up his blade, splitting the skin of his palms instantly.
He realized he was outclassed immediately and tried to pivot his plade to parry.
But before he could even reset his stance, Riley’s second axe was already mid–swing.
This time, he couldn’t keep up. Riley caught an opening in his guard and carved a deep gash across his breastplate.
Blood sprayed onto the snow.
The threat of death hit him like a physical weight; his arrogance vanished, replaced by pure terror as he scrambled backward.
Riley didn’t bother chasing him down. She unslung her arbalest again and fired two quick bolts into his retreating back.
The man collapsed face–first into the powder, his status unknown.
Riley prepared to deliver a finishing blow, the rest of the Sanctuary squad finally closed the gap.
A scruffy, burly man–clearly a Tank–stepped up, raising a massive shield to block Riley from his fallen teammate.
Riley’s axes slammed into the heavy tower shield with a thunderous impact.
The recoil made her wrists tingle, but the high–end shield was dented significantly. The Sanctuary Tank let out a low grunt, his boots carving two deep ruts as he was shoved back ten feet.
“What kind of strength is this?! She’s a monster!!”
The Tank screamed in terror. Though his shield had tanked the hit, the sheer force felt like it had rearranged his internal organs. 2/3

The Shouting and battle cries around them fell into a brief, stunned silence.

“That was the Bull! He’s a top–three Warrior in the guild!”
The remaining Sanctuary members stared at Riley’s blood–stained axes, their resolve wavering for the first time.
