Swoosh!
Shin appeared in the hidden cave that the group had created earlier, which was also acting as their temporary hideout.
He just logged back in the game and seeing that no one was present in the area, he quickly opened the party channel to see if anyone was online. But all of the other names were currently greyed out, so it could only mean that he was the first one to arrive.
Seeing that everyone else was offline other than him, he decided to do quick maintenance on his equipment before heading out to scout the area.
He also left a message on the party chat channel to inform everyone that he was already online.
He surveyed the whole vicinity for a whole hour. And just like their first survey, he discovered quite a lot of rare herbs. They were also quite a few boulders with rare ores stacked in them, and waiting to be mined.
