Advantage and Disadvantage (2)

The fourth floor of the pagoda was another alternate dimension where a town was present, bustling with life and overflowing with various artifacts and weapons. As Quinlan looked around, he started to guess the situation.

"This... is a bonus stage, perhaps?"

A stage where the challengers could rest and procure items they could use for clearing the rest of the floors!

From how the "people" there moved and how they were even curiously looking over at Quinlan, who stood in the middle of the crowded plaza like an idiot, he could feel that it was no illusion to trick him. They were as real and as alive as they could be!

While the idea of attacking the pedestrians crossed his mind, he immediately dismissed it. He knew that this peaceful town would likely have some form of law enforcement to maintain order. Injuring a pedestrian would only lead to chaos and would surely draw the attention of the town's peacekeepers, resulting in a fight.
