Anton was about to go to his room to begin Act IV of the Nightmare Difficulty of his Diablo II ga. He was planning to complete it as soon as possible so he could start the Hell Difficulty and begin grinding for items and levels although with him inside the world of Sanctuary, he knew that it would take quite a lot of ti even if he didn’t explore every nook and crannies of the zones.
Suddenly, Anton noticed his sister and the others following him.
“Why are you following ?”
“I’m hoping that you’d allow us to see more shows. You’ll just ditate anyway so while you’re doing that, can you allow us to watch more?” Anna asked.
“That’s not fair to Father and the others and besides I don’t want a lot of noise while I’m ditating. I have no choice while we’re traveling but here I want to ditate in peace. By the way, what will happen to the village once we leave?” Anton asked Devon.
“They’ll stay here until all of them die from monsters' attack,” The guard answered.
“They don’t plan to migrate, like go sowhere safe like Leminthor?”
“So probably would but so would stay and will choose to die here.”
Anton paused for a bit and suddenly turned around.
“I’m going to look around the surroundings to check if there are monsters left.”
“Do you want
to follow you?” Devon asked.
“No. Since I’ll be flying.”
Anton then hurriedly went to his father in the village hall while the others remained at the inn and then he told Anders that he would explore the surrounding area and his father just told him to be careful since there should still be monsters around.
Once he reached the forest beside the village, Anton flew up since he didn’t want to get lost and he also would be able to cover a lot of ground while he was in the air. He flew just above the tree line but he made sure that his buffs were cast for extra protection although with the armor that his character inside the Diablo II ga was wearing, he was sure that he would be fully protected since his armor rating in the ga would reflect in real life.
Anton started in the south of the forest and to make sure that he wouldn’t get lost, he flew upwards and once he was high enough, he easily found where the village was.
While roaming around the surrounding areas, he did find so monster stragglers that he easily killed using Ice Blast since he didn’t want to use area-of-effect spells like Frozen Orb or teor to avoid damaging the surrounding area.
Anton also made sure to use cold spells to avoid causing forest fire and the good thing about using Ice Blast, the monsters hit by the spell would shatter and dissipate without leaving any corpse behind. It was cleaner and it would avoid causing so sort of plague caused by rotting monster bodies.
While he was roaming around, Anton wondered if there was a chance that he would be able to get the class and spells of other characters inside his ga because honestly, the spells of the sorceress were limited. He would only compare to other archmages in this world based on Frederick’s description once he had the other class’s spells.
Suddenly there was a red notification flashing in his view.
Anton was extrely excited because every ti his Diablo II system flashed a notification at him, it was to inform him of changes to the ga that would bring great advantage to him. He imdiately stopped flying and just hovered in the air and clicked on the notification icon in his view.
The notification announced that once he reached level ninety-nine on his Sorceress character, he would have the option of choosing another character and would have access to the character's spells in the real world. The announcent continued that he would only have access to two more characters which were the spellcasters since he chose the magic path.
That ant that after the sorceress turned nine-nine Anton could choose either the necromancer or the druid next. He wasn’t worried about his Diablo II system saying that he could only choose the spellcaster classes since his system was dynamic and would allow changes to happen.
That ant that it was almost guaranteed that once he mastered all the spell caster, the other classes should be next.
Anton smirked while closing the notification then continued decimating the monsters that he found in the surrounding areas. He was hoping that what he was doing would keep the villagers safe but he knew that it was a futile hope.
The Undead Coalition was currently at war with the holy city of Tiande and if the holy city was defeated, the next city they would conquer would probably be Leminthor which was a city a lot weaker than Tiande. That ant more monsters would co and the surrounding villages were dood, either from the undead or from the migrating monsters.
Anton then thought of joining the war since he was powerful enough that he thought that he might bring so sort of difference in the fight against the undead but he knew that it was just his hubris talking to him.
The Undead Coalition had been in existence for thousands of years as far as he knew and that ant that it was led by powerful liches and necromancers that could probably chew him and spit him out if they took the ti to confront him.
He then decided that he would only fight in the war if Anton was cornered. He suddenly wondered if he was gaining experience killing monsters in the outside world so he took note of his current experience points and once he killed a roaming kobold, he checked his experience points and it did increase although the increase was miniscule, like a monster located in the first zones in the normal difficulty of his Diablo II ga.
After three hours of circling the village, Anton only covered a small part of the forest but at least, it would give the villagers a little ti to be safe to decide whether they would stay or migrate. He consoled himself that he had already done everything he could and hoped the villagers would remain safe for a ti.
The sun was setting when Anton returned to the inn and saw that the caravan was already in the process of preparing to move early the next day. He joined his family in eating dinner and inford Anders that he killed a lot of monsters in the surrounding areas.
Anders nodded at Anton and told him good job but everyone knew that it was a futile effort.
“The next village would be three days from here and we would only stop there for one night since it’s a small village then the next one will be a fairly large town. There we would stay for three days so people could rest from the journey and we would sell so items there,” Anders told his son.
Anton nodded and after dinner, he imdiately went to his room telling his father that he was tired ignoring Anna’s look of wanting to see more show. Anders nodded and told him to rest early but Anton planned to start Act IV of the Nightmare Difficulty of his Diablo II ga, at least for a couple of hours before sleeping.
