"We are almost at the top." A voice informed the team of thirteen players.
Originally, according to Genma's calculations, the fog of confusion as well as the traps laid on the floor would have held back the other guild teams by at least three hours. However, after those teams took things seriously and began to use some of their special equipment and artefacts, their progression rate had increased greatly. Of the various teams, one particular group moved faster than the others and it only took them an hour and a half to make it closer to the top.
If they were left alone and kept moving at the same speed, they would need less than thirty minutes to reach the mountain top.
There were two factions chasing after the alliance of the Sovereign guild, White Dwarf guild and Seven Star Glory. The first faction consisted of the super guilds Illesha Clan, the NES (Nine Earthly Shadows) guild and another super guild.
