Olympian Serpent [II]

There were some hours left for the trials to end on Day 4, but Luke had so many points that he could afford to have an early rest. He was also cautious about staying too long until it got dark, given his experience the last time he got arrested by the Bureau.

He left the arcade zone after planting the non-corruption tree.

That tree was a guarantee there wouldn't be any monster zones around that area, whether corrupted or not. Whenever a monster got close to the tree's effect, it would feel repelled and leave.

Maybe high-tier monsters are strong enough to resist the tree's charm, but Luke wasn't sure of the exact tier of monsters he should keep in mind.

The city was a beehive around this time because a lot of people wanted to make it back home.

Monsters are more active at night, so getting behind closed doors as early as 6 PM was the smart thing to do.
