Chapter 578- Hit where it hurts (3)
A couple of hours ago, 21st floor- a vast forestland.
A group of adventurers climbed up the stairs and arrived before it. The group was none other than the tertiary team of the expedition force, comprising of all the geniuses and newbie adventurers from all the guilds.
Initially, when this group dived inside the dungeon and cleared the floors, it was filled with a vibrant and dominant aura. Yet after reaching the 34th floor, they understood the true dangers of a dungeon. Suffering a disastrous loss inside that mysterious ruin, their egos along with their superiority complex was shattered into pieces.
These young fellows who had lost their fangs, were surrounded by a gloomy and depressed aura. Many of them had bandages and a strong medicinal aura wrapped around them. Those that have lost their arms or limbs were being carried on a stretcher.
Just a glance at them was enough to tell that they had been defeated.
