Kakakakakakak!

Inside one of the rooms in the Lawang Sewu Special Dungeon, laughter filled the entire area.

Blood scattered everywhere, and three headless corpses were lying motionless in the pool of blood.

Some of the properties inside were destroyed by the battle just now, and just from its look, it looked like a super fierce battle.

One of the surviving awakeners gritted his teeth. He took out the communication device in his hand and started recording.

In fact, communication means has long been lost. Since they entered this special Dungeon, some weird signals intervened with the communication device, making it unable to transfer messages to another group.

However, the thing that he was going to do right now was not to send a message. He pressed the secret code 555, where it would automatically function as an automatic recorder and start speaking.

" Joko here... Report.. Lawang Sewu special dungeon.. All party members are annihilated by the incoming group of ghost-type monsters. The group leader Edward is currently engaging the enemies in combat, but from its look, it doesn't seem that the group leader could hold any longer. If you read this message.. Please run. This Dungeon was not made for mankind, and there's no way humans could clear this...

*Splurt*

Just before the man could finish his last words, a pocong appeared behind her and ate his head, giving him the same fate as his other comrade.

Now there were four headless corpses in the room, and only Edward was left.

The pocong, who had just eaten his fourth meal for tonight, smiled, and he began to laugh. A black mist appeared from his body as his laughter was getting louder. The black smoke soon joined the black smoke from the other ghost-type monster and covered the whole room.

Death corrosion.

The name of the black mist that just covered the whole room just now was Death corrosion, a special skill from the ghost-type monster in Lawang Sewu that provides AOE Debuff and DoT.

Don't think that this skill was useless because the monsters didn't use this against Ray. In fact, the reason why the ghost-type in Lawang Sewu was feared was because of this skill.

This skill could slow down the enemy's perception, confuse them, and even give them fear. And on top of it, the skill continuously drains hp from a non-ghost-type monster.

The reason that Ray didn't have any trouble with this skill was because of the holy-type item. With the power of holy-type, the ghost-type skill couldn't be used to its max, and the death corrosion would immediately lose its effect when it was faced with the light from the holy type.

Edward now was really in a pinch. On the outside, the ghost-type couldn't really pose any harm to him. Yet, with the continuous Dot effect of the death corrosion, Edward started to get dizzy, and it wouldn't be long until he would eventually be defeated in the hand of the ghost army too.

He looked at the side, and when he saw the headless corpses of his comrade, pains started to fill his heart. Because he was not strong enough, his comrade was now all dead, and even their corpses couldn't be preserved.

" I'm sorry, it was all because I'm weak. But please feel relieved, your grudge, I will bear it all."

The words fell, and the aura behind Edward suddenly changed.

Like the aura behind the ghost-type monster, now Edward's body was surrounded by the death aura, making the death corrosion lose its effectiveness.

" Disappear!"

A Kuyang mask appeared on Edward's face, and then he felt like he had lost his consciousness.

. . . . . .

On another edge of the Dungeon, Old man Grey ran out with all his might.

"Pant, pant, pant..."

He couldn't catch his breaths at all. Still, remembering the scene of everyone being eaten alive by the ghost-type monsters, his scalp got numb, and all the tiredness on his body disappeared..

Like Ray and Edward, Old man Grey's group also has faced an army of ghost-type monsters just now, and only because of the sacrifice of his group member that Old man Grey could escape from that hell.

' Run Grey, we will hold them back for you. You must find the other group leader and avenge us later. Only when the four group leaders were together that we have a chance to complete this Dungeon!'

That was the last word of his old comrade before two pocong appeared behind him and tore apart his body into two.

His gaze inexplicably lowered to his hands.

His hand was now trembling, and he really wanted to get out of this place as soon as possible.

In his current condition, it was a question of whether he could overcome the fear in his heart and fight properly.

' Damn.. Those fucking ghost bastard!'

Countless curses were uttered on Old man Grey's heart. If not for the ghost-type army, his old friend would be alive until now, chatting and joking with him. Now he really wanted to kill each and every one of those ghost-type bastards.

Even so, his foot didn't stop running away. He knew that with his current power, facing the ghost-type army alone would just be a suicide.

His current priority was to find the other group member and quickly get revenge for his fallen comrade.

Soon, Old man Grey heard sounds of footsteps ahead.

A relieved expression appeared on his face, and he couldn't help but quicken his pace.

The sound of footstep should belong to human, and Old man Grey raised his head in expectation.

However, how surprised he was when he saw that the people in front of him were not other awakeners in their group but a party of black-robed people.

" You... who are you guys!?"

Edward's expression got tense, and he took out his beloved sword, fully releasing the might of a high commander-level awakener.

Yet, the party of black-robed didn't seem to have any change in their expression, and only have a sneer on their voices.

" Yare, yare, it is bad, boss. Someone has seen us here. Should I kill him?"

A playful voice appeared, and Old man Grey felt like prey in front of the predator.

" Don't joke around. Just kill him fast."

" Hehe, don't worry, Boss. It would only take a few minutes."

Under the flat tone of the leader, the man with the playful tone didn't dare to play around anymore.

With a whoosh, he came in front of old man Grey and said:

" No bad feelings, old man, just blame your bad luck for meeting us here."

" Ah..."

. . . . . . .

While Old man Grey and Edward were facing great adversity at this time, Ray and the girls were currently enjoying their moment in Lawang Sewu Dungeon.

After the first battle, where they could easily handle an army of more than 30 ghost-type monsters, the girls started to look at Ray differently.

Things got at their peak when Ray gave the strawberry to Eve, and Eve's wound healed immediately after eating it.

Yeah, with Ray's holy-type advantage and the strawberry healing item, the girls no longer feared the Lawang Sewu Dungeon, and seven began to treat it like a big fat experience cow.

This Lawang Sewu Dungeon clearly was a very good place to level up if you can ignore the danger.

The ghost could call each other, and because there were still so many rooms left, there would be a lot of monsters for them to squeeze experience points. Maybe enough for them to level up once or twice.

[ DING!!! Lv 25 Kuntilanak have been defeated. DM+ 10.]

" That's another one."

Ray said while pulling back his long slingshot. He had just used his natal weapon, the rock Mk.II to tear a hole through the kuntilanak's body, defeating it in just one blow.

" Hehe, you are great Ray, how about considering me as your girlfriend?"

" Bah, since when did you become a nympho? Furthermore, do you think you are worthy of Ray?"

" .... "

Eve and Ray watched the girls squabbling with awkward expressions on their faces.

Just now, the team was ambushed by about 20 ghost-type monsters. But instead of fear, the girls have a brilliant glint in their eyes and start to scream "my exp!", while rushing at the ghost-type monsters like mad.

" Are they usually like this?"

" ... "

" Would you believe me if I say they are usually calm and composed women and didn't like to be in the presence of a man?"

" Umm.. maybe(?)"

In the end, Ray and Eve could only laugh at each other. The heavy tension, in the beginning, was no more, and if people were to see them right now, they might think of them as a group of happy travelers.

" Okay-okay, let's be serious. Mira, can I read the map you draw for this Dungeon?"

" Sure, here, Eve. I have drawn all the rooms we have passed through until now. Still, I don't think we are near the boss room yet."

" Okay, just keep drawing. I just hope that the other group would also didn't have any problem."

Eve read the map for a while and returned it back to Mira.

Until now, they still haven't met another group, and even though they were safe and sound, Eve couldn't erase the worries in their heart.

For Eve who has the B-rank danger sense, this is the first time she hoped her danger sense was wrong. She didn't know why, but from the moment she step into this Dungeon, she always felt a great danger was looming over them.

' I hope my intuition is wrong this time.. Please be safe, guys.'
