An faintly remembered the figures of Neumann and the rest of the teens iling around as they fell into the same chasm as him.
When he opened his eyes again, he seemed to be in a different space. No one was here with him.
He stumbled on the wall beside him and felt the texture of wet, slimy, brick in his hands. Moss seemed to grow on this wall.
Judging from the fibers he felt from the wall, he knew that he was still in the Remedium. He felt it strange that he could feel the texture of moss on bricks even though the walls were made up of fibers intertwined with each other.
He noticed that everything in this ce looked white. This meant that the real-world equivalent of this ce must be dark and dim, the exact opposite of the tint he was seeing right now.
He pinched his nose. The acrid and pungent smell of decay hit his senses. He didn''t think he''d smell this scent again after he left the Unimed Lands.
From the distance, he heard the faint sounds of water dripping and echoing around the walls.
When he looked to the side, he saw that there were running water-like fibers on the channel down a step below. On the other side, he saw a wall simr to the one he was on now.
And spaced out evenly along the wall were small alcoves where torches gave out a small blue me.
He looked around and saw that he could either only go forward or backward. This ce seemed like a winding narrow tunnel underground. He wasn''t familiar with this ce.
When he looked backward, he faintly saw a dead end with iron grates preventing him from going back.
With no other choice, An decided to walk forward.
He needed to find the exit. He needed to reunite with Neumann and the others. He wanted to know if they were safe.
Since they all fell from the same ce, An guessed that they were also in the same narrow winding tunnels as him. If he kept walking forward, he would eventually run into them.
He walked for minutes on end, with his steps faintly echoing in the tunnels.
Eventually, he heard scurrying in the distance. His eyes lit up when he thought he was hearing the footsteps of his team, but his expression soon turned grim when he heard four sets of stomps in the distance.
This wasn''t from a human. This was a creature who walked on all fours.
Is it…
An''s guess, unfortunately, turned out right as he soon saw a figure in the distance, frolicking on the liquid-like flowing fibers down steps.
It had short ck fur, walked on all fours, had thicker and muscr hind legs than the front legs, a hard shell on its torso, and a human-like head with nothing but a mouth and arge tongue that dripped green goo.
It was a Deiztruphia Canzer.
It hadn''t noticed him yet, but it was walking towards him slowly. If he didn''t do anything, it would eventually notice him and attack him.
He quickly decided to turn around and try to escape from the Canzer.
However, when he looked back, he suddenly saw a different tunnel than the one he walked away from!
There was now an intersection that led to the left and right tunnels. The worst part was that he heard two other sets of hooves clopping from the intersection.
His guess turned out correct too as two other Deiztruphia Canzers meandered their way towards him.
He was surrounded by a ce that didn''t follow the rules of physics.
I have no other choice. I have to fight.
An knew the difficulty that his team went through just to fight one Canzer. It took five 1st stage Students just to kill one of them in half an hour. And they had a lot of trouble killing it too. They came out of the fight exhausted and injured, barely beating the Canzer.
They also needed the protection of a 4th stage Student like Neumann.
Fighting one Deiztruphia Canzer was a hard task for a lone man like An. It seemed impossible to fight all three at once.
However, he reminded himself that he wasn''t just like any other Savior. He had unique powers that could help him ovee this difficult task.
He had four LifeSkills in his repertoire.
Specialty: GLOBAL
—God: (SSS) Grim Reaper Physique
———1st stage Student Realm
Specialty: Vanguard
—DPS: (SSS) Cherubic Retribution
——— Consolidating to 4th stage
—Mage: (C) Mucus Spray
——— Consolidating the 4th stage
—Sniper: (SSS) Apocalyptic Hellfire
——— Consolidating the 2nd stage
Two of them were at the 3rd Stage Student Realm, and he had three SSS ss LifeSkills.
He watched his team''s fight with the Canzer and knew of its attack tendencies. He knew that it liked to spout green acid goo on its enemies or charge at them if they were at a distance.
If he got surrounded by a spray of green goo from both sides, he wouldn''t be able to escape it.
So, he decided to disable the two Canzers behind him first.
Thankfully, he had his Mage LifeSkill: Mucus Spray, which was a sticky substance that could immobilize the two of them and give him a chance to fight one of them head-on.
GYAOOOOO
The two Canzers behind finally took notice of his presence. They screamed to the top of their lungs and it echoed through the tunnels and reached the Canzer in front of An.
This alerted it of his presence.
I have no other choice.
The two Canzers used their muscr legs to charge towards him at fast speeds. Fibers from the ground burst as the Canzers ran through them.
One of them jumped up to the curved ceiling and used its ws to run upside down!
This left An no chance to escape.
GRAOOOO
The lone Canzer in front of him growled, and An could hear the gurgling sound of green acidic goo on its throat.
It was nning to attack.
