Chapter 792 Preparing for the big challenges

?In the morning, Kaizen's group finally reached the imposing capital of Tretidian.

The majestic and colossal statues placed on the great mountain that was literally the Commercial Center, towered over much of the city, supported by ancient columns and giving everyone a sense of imposing. Even though it was early, the city was already buzzing with life everywhere, and the number of players seemed even greater than when Kaizen was last in town.

It was normal for many players to use the morning to hunt monsters or go to the Adventurers' Association to pick up their quests, after all, most players were different from Kaizen, they didn't have the "luck" of always being involved in trouble.

As they entered the gates, the buzz of the city enveloped Kaizen's group. The streets were full of hurrying merchants, curious passers-by and players in shining armor.

A curious fact about the Royal Capital was that most of the houses were built of dark stone or wood, except for the noble part of the city, where the Royal Palace was located, because there the walls looked like pure marble.

Kaizen guided the cart to his store, Raven's Feather, where they could finally rest after a long journey.

The days that followed were marked by a mixture of preparation and fervent group activity.

Alina, the mage in the group, was given the "Guardian's Cloak". In other words, her armor wasn't made of iron, but a mixture of magical cloth and light metal plates, providing mobility and protection. A cloak hung over her shoulders, emitting a soft light and reflecting her connection with mana. In addition, she handed over an even better staff than the previous one, called the "Divine Morning Star", which had the power to dispel the darkness around her.

"I'm sure the mages in the citadel will be impressed when they see me wearing this." Alina said, thanking him.

Jayaa, the bard, was given a set of "Crescent Moon Blades". His armor was made of dragon hide, allowing him to move with agility and still have protection. He was also considered a type of mage, so he needed to move quickly.

"Ow! That's more than I could ask for!"

Andrew and Xisrith were given equally impressive gadgets. Andrew, a Paladin, wore the "Twilight Armor", an armor that adapted as his stats such as MP and HP became lower, increasing the percentage of bonuses to all attributes, allowing him to become up to 200% stronger when below 30% HP or Mana. His sword, "Burning Twilight", was always engulfed in golden flames, coming from a Matrix Fire Crystal.

"Now I can fight alongside Kaizen without fear. Thanks, man."

Finally, Xisrith, the sorceress, now wore the "Robe of the Arcane Storm". Her armor was light and made of titanic plates, providing protection against magical attacks. Her Crimson Katana was renamed "Crimson Ray", because it now had a slightly curved blade and had the ability to double its attributes such as attack and stamina every five minutes.

"You've improved on what I thought was already perfect. I knew I could blindly entrust my most precious item to you, boss."

With their new gadgets, the group gathered around the fireplace in the library's private room. Alina spread out the maps again, now marked with detailed strategies for breaking into the Wizard's Tower.
