Chapter 124 Trapped In Cave



Ken and his team ran as fast as they could through the dark dungeon, trying to find their way out.

They knew they had to get out and find the professors to help Nick.

As they ran, they heard the sound of creatures getting closer. They could feel their hearts pounding, and fear began to set in.

They knew they had to be careful, or they would end up like the creatures they had encountered earlier.

Noah navigated them with the help of a map through the maze-like corridors, hoping to find a way out.

"Noah, I don't think we are going in the right direction," Ken commented as he felt it was like they were going in circles.

"Damn, this map isn't working. This thing is false. Only a few things were right." Saying this, Noah, ripped the map into pieces.

Ken and the rest of the team stared in disbelief as Noah shredded the map.

They were now completely lost with no sense of direction. Panic began to set in, and they felt like they were running out of time.

"We need to keep moving," Ken said, breaking the silence. "We can't just stay here and wait for those creatures to catch up with us."

They could hear the creatures' footsteps getting louder, and they knew they had to move faster.

However, soon those creatures caught up to them.

The monsters were unlike anything they had ever seen before - they were large, slimy, and had tentacles instead of arms.

"Stay alert, everyone! We have to work together to take them down," Ken shouted as he led the charge.

The team spread out, each taking on a monster of their own.

Marry and Luna cast a spell, shooting a bolt of lightning at the creature in front of her. Elena attacked with her sword, dodging the monster's tentacles as she struck it.

Noah used his archery skills, shooting arrows with deadly accuracy. Ken used his sword to slice them.

The monsters fought back fiercely, their tentacles lashing out at the team. The team dodged and weaved, narrowly avoiding the attacks.

Ken drew his sword and charged at the monster in front of him.

"Die, you disgusting creature!" Ken shouted as he plunged his sword into the monster. The monster let out a loud screech and fell to the ground.

[ROAR!!]

As they fought, the team heard a roar in the distance. That Roar was so frightening - they momentarily lost their focus on fighting.

Soon they started hearing rumbling. It was the sound of more monsters approaching.

"Come on, we have to move quickly!" Ken shouted, motioning for the team to follow him.

They ran through the dungeon, trying to find their way out.

The monsters were getting closer, and the team could hear their footsteps getting louder. Suddenly, they found themselves cornered.

"We're trapped!" Marry cried out.

Despite their ferocity, they were no match for the skill and power of the team, led by their formidable guardian, Senior Lily.

Eva and her team consisted of five members, including herself.

There was Christina, the powerful mage with control over her element; Claire, the sharpshooter with an uncanny aim; Sarah, the healer with a heart of gold; and Jake, the brawler with fists of steel.

Together, they made an unstoppable team, easily taking down wave after wave of monsters. But as they pushed deeper into the cave, the monsters grew stronger and more numerous.

"Guys, we're getting surrounded!" shouted Sarah, frantically healing her teammates as they fought off the beasts.

"We need to fall back and regroup," said Jake, his fists bruised and battered from the constant barrage of attacks.

"Agreed," said Eva, as she blasted a group of monsters with a burst of energy. " Senior Lily, can you create a barrier to give us some breathing room?"

"Sure thing," said Lily, as she channeled her powers into a wall of flame that surrounded the team, keeping the monsters at bay.

Eva retrieved a collection of potions from her space ring and began hurling them at the approaching horde of monsters.

As each potion made contact with a monster, it immediately froze and collapsed to the ground.

"Now's our chance to attack," Eva exclaimed, urging her stunned team members to take advantage of the opening. Without hesitation, they launched their assault and within moments, all the monsters lay dead at their feet.

Curious about the mysterious potions, Lily inquired, "What was that you used?"

"It's a poison I concocted during my experiments," Eva replied, holding up a vial. "I call it Widow's Kiss. It paralyzes the victim's nervous system and renders them immobile."

Impressed by Eva's skill, the team members showered her with praise.

As they prepared to move on, Lily handed Eva a business card from her space ring. "Contact me once you're back at your dome. I might have a proposition for you," she said with a smile.

'I have got another opportunity to earn money.' Lily was happy for a moment.

As the group ventured deeper into the cave, they encountered countless monsters along the way. Yet, with Lily's fiery power and Eva's peculiar poisons, they dispatched them with ease.

After some time, they crossed paths with another group of students who were heading in the same direction. Eva's sharp gaze scanned the group, and she quickly recognized a familiar figure.

"Amy!" she called out.

Amy's face lit up with recognition. "Eva, it's so good to see you!" she replied with a wave of her hand.

Eva's group made their way over to Amy's, noticing that her companions looked exhausted as if they had just fought a grueling battle.

"What happened to you guys?" Eva asked with genuine concern.

"After we defeated the assigned monster, we heard a barrage of notifications for help, followed by a deafening roar," Daphne explained, her voice strained from the battle. "We realized we needed to leave the cave immediately. Along the way, we noticed that we couldn't contact any of the professors."

As they trudged towards the exit, they came across many other groups of students who were also fighting for their survival. They helped them as best as they could, despite their weariness.

"Have you guys encountered any trouble with the monsters in here?" Amy inquired.

"We've had our share of challenges, but Sister Eva and Senior Lily were able to handle them," Sarah replied, casting a respectful glance towards Eva and Lily.

"Wait a minute. You still have your guardian with you? That's odd," Amy said, her tone bewildered.

Eva furrowed her brow in confusion. "What do you mean?"

"Most of the guardians are missing," Amy explained with a troubled expression. "On our way out, we only encountered two. Senior Lily is the third one we've seen."

The gravity of the situation began to sink in as everyone realized how dire things were.
