The World of Masks

The group follows Polliton into the cave entrance. As the group looks around the cave, relying on the light emanating from the beads of light, Politon suddenly gives Jack something.

"I'll start with what I promised."

The wings of the transition. Jack nods and puts the wings of the transition into the bracelet. Politon pushes the road again.

The entrance to the cave was narrow enough for an adult to enter with half his body shrunk, but it was only small enough to walk inside. But it was not a big size. The group walks side by side, naturally, with a low degree of mobility for one person. The beads of light darken the mood of the group's shadows on the cave walls. A loud noise echoes as hard steel boots trample the rugged ground. The sound echoes as the cave growls. The group's glances are slightly frowned.

Fortunately, after a 10-minute walk, the interior of the cave began to widen. The group makes progress, as previously suggested by Politon. Jack and Miles stood by each other to react at any time around Samantha. Galik takes a firm grip on his shield and strides forward. Polliton sits close behind Galik's diagonal line, keeping an elongated boundary in case there are any traps in front of him.

Food.

Whether it was the sudden light or the loud footsteps, the animals that woke up were flying around. They were bat-like animals. Just in case, the group is cautious, but soon they decide they're harmless and take another step back. Of course, I wasn't completely vigilant, so I glanced at the flying animals over my head.

The terrain of the cave is getting rougher. In proportion to him, Samantha suffocates. He seemed to be losing strength rapidly in this terrain because he had a stamina that was not different from an ordinary woman. This time Jack carried Samantha. Hopefully Galik will be able to carry it up the mountain, just like he was going up the mountain, but if anything happens, moving Samantha back to Jack is the primary defense. Jack introduced Himcha as well as others did not disagree. You hear Samantha's grumbling behind your back. When I listened, I mumbled to myself that if I stepped out of the dungeon, I would definitely invest points in the str. I didn't like the current situation of being carried around like a burden because of my physical strength and causing trouble to others.

The cave was quite long. When you enter the cave, the group logs out once in the middle of the night and then enters again. Then I walked for about six hours.

"Don't you think it's getting warmer?"

Samantha, who was behind Jack, pushing away the darkness surrounding him with beads of light, flares her robes and asks. Not only that, but there were drops of sweat on the faces of other people. Iron armor was also slowly heating up. I'm starting to worry that my clothes will melt and my flesh will get stuck in the iron.

"Mr. Politon. This cave. I think."

"Yes, I think so."

Samantha's cautious words stiffen Politon's face. The light of corruption was thick on his face. Others were also able to anticipate what they were saying. The heat is getting hotter, and the red light in front of them presses down heavily.

Suddenly, the size of the cave suddenly grew. The group looks around. I see a steep ridge ahead. The ceiling was several hundred feet high, and the surroundings were blunt and pierced. It was a huge place you could never have imagined to be in a cave. As you look back, the cave that they came across is punctured just below the large wall face. I looked the other way again. You see another cavern beyond the ridge. The group is able to see the terrain here. It's a huge canyon. The group glances down at the bottom of the canyon.

"Wow!"

"Hurrah!"

"Oh, my God!"

The group admires you at the same time. Even Miles, who was speechless, lightly burst his elasticity. What was in the cave was the canyon. However, what was flowing down the canyon was not water, but ragged lava. The appearance of elongated red lava stalks bursting with fury, giving off a red glow and bending lava was spectacular in itself.

"By the way! I thought we were gonna see this in a movie."

Jack nods, too, in Galik's words. It really was a speechless sight. I felt refreshed because people sang Mother Nature and Mother Nature songs. Politon reminds the group of their purpose as they gaze silently at the bending valley of lava.

"Here! Here! We did an unexpected good show, but we're starting to move forward again. That's good, because lava is flowing down there. If lava were a cave flowing right next to it like a real movie, our exploration would go right back to failure."

In the movie, even though lava flows right next to it, it just looks hot, sweats, and walks freely, but in reality, it's not an option. Specialized fire suit is also needed when scientists access the crater revealing lava for research purposes. Walking barefoot beside such lava? It was impossible to be a suicidal person. Fortunately for the group, the lava flows down the canyon, leaving no one behind to pursue the expedition.

"Let's cross to the other side."

The group looks across the canyon at Politon's words. The little cave you saw earlier is pushing out its branches. It seemed to be the same size as the cave they had passed by. The group begins to find a way across the canyon naturally. Fortunately, there is a stone bridge just a short distance away. The width was on average 2m. It reminded me of a small rocky road lying on top of the Lava Canyon, which soon became popular in the movie. The group walks toward the bridge.

"· · · · · Is this safe?"

Samantha gently touches the bridge. Once I felt it, it was pretty hard. But the canyon is also high and below is the lava zone. A safety check was required.

"That's right. The Demon King's Dungeon."

Galik glances down at the lava and turns to his group.

"I'll go first."

"Are you sure about this?"

"I can't help it."

Galik pulls something out of the bracelet, dispensing Politon's concerns.

"It's not like there's no way."

It was a long chain. It was long enough to reach the length across the canyon.

"I carry it around all the time just in case. My armor is heavy, so I carry chains, not ropes."

I can't see Galrick's face from the helmet, but he seems to be smiling.

Galik puts his armor inside the bracelet and ties the chain to his body. Then you grab one side of the chain and give it to the party.

"If the bridge collapses, pull it up immediately."

The group nods. Just in case, the chains are all attached to Jack, Politon, and Miles. Samantha holds on to the chain. Galik carefully walks over the bridge. The foam was powerful, just in case it collapsed. With your armor off, the armor was the last defense just in case. Just by putting all the armor inside the bracelet, the risk was high enough. Galik, who has a huge body, carefully walks to his toes, looks ridiculous in some ways. However, Galik's steps have put him on the path to success. The group swallows and turns their legs.

Galik refuses to look down. Underneath, a faint death flows. I had safeguards, but I couldn't help but feel anxious. I walked carefully on the bridge, looking only forward as far as possible. After a while, Galik was able to cross the bridge without a hitch.

"Phew!"

I let out a sigh. I felt bad about the sticky sweat dripping into my armor, but I couldn't even wipe it. Galik unsheathes the chains around his body and waves to the group across the canyon. The rest of the party tugs on the chain as we see Galik pass by. It was time for the rest of you to tie this chain up and move on.

As Galik makes safe passage, the others begin to cross the bridge. You tie yourself together in chains, just like Galik. Walk carefully, one by one. Samantha crosses first, then Miles crosses later. The rest of the party remains strong because they have to hold on to the chains just in case. The most dangerous thing was Jack. It's because everyone crosses first, and only Politon can support the chain. Politon is a bit of a pushover, so worrying won't happen, but it's definitely more dangerous. Luckily, nothing happened to Jack either. Jack made it, and Politon made it last. The chains of Politon have been caught by everyone else, including Galik. Politon shuddered as soon as he arrived.

"Whew. Gosh, I feel like I'm going through all kinds of stuff playing this game."

Galik smirks and slaps Politon on the back. The mouth that was revealed between the masks of Politon was flaccid. Galik's hands are too gloomy to take for granted.

"Here we go! Let's go again."

Polliten leads the way, complaining to Galik. Follows Galik and the rest of the group, who don't seem to have reflected much.

The group walks into the cave they saw before crossing the canyon. Galik picks up the beads of light in the cave. The bright light from the bead illuminates the surroundings.

"Looks like you found it."

Politon's bright voice echoes. The group sweeps the cavern. The cave walls seemed to have been artificially carved, and the width was also constant. And there were strange drawings and patterns all around the walls. It was a dungeon that I was looking for.
