\'Really?\'

My expectations rode a roller coaster since I entered this gate, at first I thought it would take lots of time considering the number of gates which I expected to be similar to normal gates, then the small amount of monsters inside the first cave made me believe it won\'t take me a few days to finish them off, however, in the end it turned out to be much more complicated than expected…

After finishing the first gate, I went to the huge one to confirm my expected guess which proved it right.

{ TARGET 1/100 }

Since it was really necessary to move forward I didn\'t slack off as I went straight into the second gate on the right side, only to find two formations of ten monsters which was double the number I found at the first gate.

Even though it was still very easy to handle the two formations, I noticed that some of the weaker monsters on the formation had a slightly higher level when compared to the first gate\'s formation of monsters.

I wasted no time as I went into the third gate to test my theory of how the gates differed and soon came out without trouble.

I had a sudden thought as I went for the first gate on the left side instead of moving forward on the right side, and only then could I make an assumption on how this \'hall of gates\' worked.

But to make sure I won\'t get surprised again, I went through several more gates on both sides, creating a mechanism chart in my head...

Basically, the number of monsters increased by a formation of ten as the gate\'s number increased by 1, not only that, but as the number of the gates grew higher, the levels of the monsters were also slightly increased going forward by 1~2 levels depending on the initial level of the monster at the earlier gate, and most importantly, unlike the very first gate, the monsters started working together as an actual formation, instead of charging towards me like mindless bulls...

To put more simply, the monsters grew stronger and more cooperative as the gate\'s number increased, besides the number increase, which worked as \'X=10n\' if X was set as the number of monsters and n was the gate\'s number.

Moreover, trickery didn\'t work, even choosing a random gate without following their order, the inside of the gate was still according to its entry number.

Lastly, the two sides of the hall were like mirror images of each other, the first gate of the right side contained the same number of monsters with the same levels and degree of cooperation as the first gate of the left side did.

Considering all these facts, I could only stop at the tenth gate of each side, and even this took me 2 days to finish and draw my current analysis.

{ TARGET 20/100 }

I stared at the huge gate\'s flame counter, and while it seemed like I already did a fifth of the wanted work, this much couldn\'t be considered as more than a 5% of the whole deal…

Of course, having so much monsters to slay wasn\'t really that bad, after all, I did gain 3 levels from these relaxed two days of hunting and analysing!

I could even argue that this gate might be a better leveling place than I thought, maybe even surpassing the gains I got from the \'Savage Highlands\' gate...
