The Road to the Monastery.

Following Olivia's instructions, I descended the mountain toward an old monastery, navigating treacherous gaps and ignoring rockfall warnings. After surviving a surprise attack from a feasting infected and looting a hidden cache, I bypassed the locked main gates by scaling a wall, only to be ambushed by an infected playing dead.

As per Olivia's advice, I headed downhill toward the old monastery for our meeting. The graphics were incredibly realistic, so I took a moment to enjoy the mountain scenery as I began the trek.

I reached a viewpoint and spotted an infected feasting on a body below. I tried to find a stealthy way around it to save my health, but the game didn't allow for a quiet approach.

The infected sensed my presence and attacked, tried to pin me down. After a struggle, I managed to break free and smashed it into the ground to end the fight.

Nearby, I found a body of a laborer or someone form whom I found some useful loot for my journey ahead.

From a high vantage point, I checked out the old monastery. I was checking to see if the building was covered by any of those infected, but fortunately, it looked clear.

I diverted to another hillside ledge where I found more supplies. While scavenging, I noticed a couple more infected wandering further down the slope.

I continued running toward the monastery. I passed a waterfall that sounded incredibly soothing, and the way the sun hit the water looked incredibly realistic, it was a rare moment of beauty in a dark situation.

I kept pushing forward, ignoring signs that warned of falling rocks. I used some sturdy tree branches to swing across a massive gap in the mountain path to stay on course.

I finally reached the monastery, but the main gate was bolted shut from the inside. I had to find a different way to gain entry.

I found a section of the wall that didn't have any obstacles on that part. I jumped over it and scanned the courtyard for any running infected; and it seemed quiet at first glance.

Right after jumping inside, I landed near a body I thought was a corpse. It turned out to be an infected waiting for a meal. it tried to feast on me as soon as I stood up, so I had to smash it down quickly.

I'll show what happens next later.


I personally took all the screenshots from my play and I used a logo of the game from online to use in the thumbnail.

This is Pikachuuuuu signing off. Over and out.

It's a shame the courtyard wasn't as quiet as it first appeared, but your quick reflexes totally saved the entry. Now stay prepared for such conflicts next.

Yeah, that quiet moment was definitely deceiving.

The exploration part of this post was very enjoyable. The mountain journey, the waterfall, and the view were beautiful. The peaceful scenery mixed with danger made the experience feel very real.

Peaceful views don’t usually come with lurking threats in such a world, you know.

The action moments were very tense. The sudden attack from the infected and the struggle to escape felt intense. Well played bro.

Thanks bro, that part really did not give any warning at all.

I think that infected playing dead realized way too late that you weren't on the menu today, lol.

Lol, it definitely misread the situation there.
