The firsts Arcane

The village was three kilometers from the place where the survivors were, for Adriel, this distance could be crossed in a few minutes.

But of course, he was not alone, this time he was accompanied by a group of 60 people, who had weak people and children among them, these people could not move very fast, and they got quite tired, so they had to go at a very slow speed, protecting the weak and frail in the center, safe from ambushes of evolved animals.

Currently, Adriel was in the front of the formation, he was very attentive to his surroundings, using the scanner in a radius of 50 meters, at its maximum capacity.

He was afraid he would not react in time if they faced a surprise attack from the back, in which case, they might lose a member, something that everyone would like to avoid.

After all, he was not a god, he was able to kill all the beings he encountered quite easily, but it never hurts to be cautious, in fact, it is usually the key to not being killed.

As the saying goes, better safe than sorry.

As he constantly scanned the surroundings, he spoke to Richard about something that was bothering him quite a bit.

"How did they literally end up facing a horde, don't you seem like someone who would let that happen?", Adriel commented, quite intrigued, Richard was a smart guy despite his appearance, it was rare that they would end up in that situation with him in charge.

Richard's expression turned grim as he remembered that event and the stupid fat man who caused it.

"An idiot was not satisfied with his rations, after they refused to give him more rations, suddenly he pulled out a pistol and started shooting !, luckily, they immobilized him before he killed anyone, but the noise attracted to the zombies "

Adriel nodded, it wasn't Richard's fault, no one could have known that the scam was hiding a gun.

"And the man?" Adriel asked.

"He died in the siege, along with some more, honestly, that man deserved it" Richard commented, to begin with, the siege was his fault, 7 people died because of him, so it was comforting to know that the culprit was dead.

The group continued, walking along the roads and stopping from time to time for the elderly and children to catch their breath, this also served as a break for the rest, as they carried large bags full of food and everything that could result useful, since clothes to what little medicine they could find, in the end, it took them about 2 hours to travel that short distance of 3 miles.

When the group reached the village, they were surprised by what they saw.

A layer of weak transparent golden light surrounded a large area of ​​almost 10 square kilometers, in the middle of the dome of light, 3 buildings stood quietly in the middle, on the sides two temples that seemed to be taken directly from Ancient Greece, with square shape and columns on both sides of the entrances, giving them a solemn air.

In the middle of these two temples was a rustic building, made of wood and stone, it looked a lot uglier than the two temples, yet it seemed very solid, as if it could withstand whatever was thrown at it.

As everyone stared in shock at the sight in front of them, Richard suddenly spoke to Adriel.

"What is that light?", He asked, the golden light was soft, like the spring light, it gave a relaxing feeling, however, Richard could feel his heart beat faster when looking at that light, it gave him the feeling that if he was trying to get through it, something bad would happen, something very bad.

"Our protection", Adriel revealed, "During the following week, no being that is not part of the village will be able to pass through it, after a week, it will disappear."

"Wow !!!", people could not help but groan in surprise, not to mention how they could prepare in a week, just the idea of ​​being able to sleep without the fear of being eaten alive while you sleep excited the survivors, had been living a true hell for 4 days, now that they could finally take a breath, naturally they were excited.

"How do we join the village?" Richard asked, since this was done by the system, he thought they could join the village through it.

And he was right.

Adriel smiled, he could send invitations for them to join, but at the moment, it is only possible to do it near the village, the moment he moves away a bit, he will lose the ability to do so.

That's why he didn't send them the invitations before.

Suddenly, a blue screen appeared in front of everyone.

[You have been invited to join Arcadia]

[Confirm invitation: Yes / No]

Everyone quickly selected yes, most had killed zombies, so they weren't surprised by the system notification.

[Congratulations, you have become an Arcane]

Adriel smiled happily, his power was finally taking shape, slowly and steadily, he was sure he could slowly muster great strength.

That day, the firsts Arcane were born.

The firsts of many.

At this moment, no one, not even Adriel, could even begin to imagine that this day would be remembered in the annals of history as an event that changed all.

Like the day Arcadia was born.
