Plunging into the Competition Part II

"What are those markers?" Dandy asked, narrowing her amber eyes.

"Oh, those? Points of interest. I marked them while falling from the sky."

"Points of interest?"

"Yeah," Joke nodded. "You already know that in this tournament, there are hidden quests and treasure locations scattered randomly across the map. At the very start of the game, players rush to collect as many cards as possible. Which means—any easily visible treasure chests will be fought over immediately."

Dandy’s eyes widened in realization. "Ohh…"

But… something about this still made her a little uneasy.

"Over there! That’s one of the spots!"

With his quick footwork, Joke led them to a shallow riverbank near the forest in no time.
