Unlocking
"So, how did you know that there are other people except my brother?" Keith asked Zion.
The interviewee just smiled.
"Magic." He said in a fancy voice.
They were all laughing after that joke.
Keith just sighed and laughed a few times to blend in.
That was when they saw a conspicuous little lady at the mouth of the entrance for the next floor level.
"Hey, guys, want some revenge?" Mina said to everyone. She smiled at them, but her eyes is filled with rage and hatred.
"Calm dow-"
"I'm up for it." Louis shouted.
It is known that Massareti's weapons can change their whole country, and that was why Zion was forced to hide his hand.
If they know that those weapons are in the hands of a student, they will do anything to take it.
The four bullets that came earlier was from him. They were coated not to stand out too much and cannot be traced by anyone.
"Yeah, let's give them hell." Niana smiled.
The others also agreed, and they all went to the entrance.
------------------------
Tenth floor.
A special characteristic of every ten floors is that the enemy is only a handful.
Maybe three, four or five V ranks appear from time to time.
But then, a change happened in the past few months.
The difficulty of it became harsher.
Instead of four to six creatures, it became eight to ten for each and every person.
Also, all of them are S ranks.
Not S ranks that are beyond A ranks. S ranks that are higher than T ranks but lower than R ranks.
Right now, there are over forty people in the mouth of the entrance.
It is said that three feet away from the end of the entrance is the place where people are counted and the creatures are sent. This is what they call the "Sorting Line".
There are twenty people in the band of the man who looked like Keith.
There are twenty-six people with the man that has the same face features as Niana.
They were in front of the sorting line.
"You go first." The man who looked like Keith said.
"No, you may have the honours." The man who has the same face features as Niana refused.
They exchange words from time to time, but neither one wants to be the first one to enter.
"Maybe we should wait for them." The man who looked like Keith snarled.
"They are already here." The man with the same face features as Niana said.
After that, they saw a group of eleven walking towards the entrance.
"Woah, what do we have here? A sudden rift in the truce?" Niana said while walking.
"I've never been in a truce with him." The man who looked like Keith said.
"I'm never going to trust someone like that." The man who has the same features as Niana stated.
"Then why did you trusted Aragon? I thought you were never going to trust someone like that?" Niana smirked.
"You! Son of a b*tch!" The man who has the same face features as Niana said.
"You are a brother of mine, Nico. So you are a son of a b*tch too." Niana said to Nico, who is now fuming with anger.
"Arrogant, aren't we?" The next moment, Nico appeared beside Niana.
"So you will solve things by for--"
BOOM!
Niana, together with Jovanna and Keith flew forward.
"Short-tempered as always." Niana mumbled.
They all got into positions, and Niana's group is in the middle.
Nico and his group are on the mouth of the entrance, and the man who looks like Keith is already inside the floor.
Almost sixty people, did enter that floor at the same time.
The ground quakes for a moment, and then, a calamity ensued.
Almost 600 Q Ranks appeared out of nowhere. There are also 200 P Ranks and 50 O ranks.
When the groups saw it, they all paled in horror.
"This is just the tenth floor, right?" Nico couldn't help but spout.
"Run!" Louis shouted.
"Bomb the entrance! We can't go out in a narrow space like that!" The man who looked like Keith said.
"Don't do it! Karl, you idiot!" Nico shouted.
They all ran towards the entrance, but the narrow space only four people at most to enter at once.
Before Nico could shout, one of Karl's subordinates threw a sonic bomb.
This bomb is used in mines, to blow them up and mine easier. It blows up in a sphere shape, and blows everything away from it.
Due to their confusion and panic, no one noticed the bomb that was thrown. All they want to do is get inside the entrance.
A stampede happened, and Niana's group is in the middle. They were sandwiched by the two groups, and were not moving so well.
Karl and the others were still pushing in order to cross the three feet borderline.
A Flaming Void Hound came as fast as it could to chase the people who tried to bother their peace.
"Go, go, go, go!" Karl was shouting at them, and they went faster.
They all made their move, all of them not willing to fight an O Rank.
Due to the panic, a group tried to it themselves in, resulting in all of them being stuck at the entrance.
"Move!" Karl said as he tried to throw another sonic bomb to the place.
"Karl, stop!" At that moment, Nico, who was in front, suddenly shouted.
But he was too late. The sonic bomb is already out of Karl's hand.
It landed right on front of Nico, who was leading the others out.
"Oh shit!" He cursed.
After that, the sonic bomb released its might.
BOOM!
All of them flew out of the entrance.
While mid-air, a sudden gist of force hit a person's body.
Unfortunately, that person also has a sonic bomb in him.
BOOM!
Another explosion happened.
All of them then scattered away. The person who has the sonic bomb in his body was now crippled and can't even move a limb.
After that, rubble blocked the entrance. The explosion destroyed it.
"BAIL! BAIL OUT!" Nico shouted as he crushed a white stone on his hand.
The labyrinth also has a special characteristic that can let the ones who enter it forcefully teleport to the entrance.
GROAAAAAARGH!
A sudden outburst of killing intent rose. This time, ten N Rank monsters appeared. Another 400 Q Ranks, additional 300 P Ranks and 50 more O ranks also appeared.
"This floor does not accept cowards! You who turned their backs must not enter again. Yet you did, and now, we're here!" One of the N Ranks said.
"It talks?" Zion inquired while trying to stand up.
"Only N Ranks and above." Niana said as she dashed out to fetch her other team mates.
"You go left, I go right!" Niana told Zion as she went forward.
"Got it!" Zion ran towards Louis, who was the nearest to him. He woke Louis up, and told him to bail out.
Louis did and he became motes of light and a magic circle appeared above it. The motes of light was sucked in, and it vanished.
Next, he went to France, Keith and Jovanna, who were sent in the same place. He also made them bail out.
At last, it was Celestine who is the farthest. Beside her is Mina and Aira, as they were the ones nearest to the person who was the sonic bomb. The impact to them is much more than the impact to others.
"Cel! Cel!" He shouted as he woke Celestine up.
"Where?" Zion supported her and he woke up the other two.
"Are you guys okay?" Zion asked.
Aira nodded as she coughed out a mouthful of blood.
"Let's bail out now." Zion looked at them and he can see that the damage in their bodies are more than they can imagine.
Zion took the white stone from his pocket.
"Wait. I lost mine." Celestine said, as she patted her pockets.
When Zion looked around, it was almost 10 meters away from them.
The Void Creatures in that floor is 20 meters away.
"Use this. I will get that stone and use it for me. Now go!" As he said that, Zion saw the others bailing out.
The only ones who were left were Nico, for when he crushed the stone, the labyrinth changed and rejected his bail out, Karl, the two shadows of Nico, Niana and Melrose.
Niana saw that Zion was sprinting towards the horde of creatures.
"No! Zion!" She shouted.
Nico and Karl went together towards Niana.
Before Niana can go to follow Zion, she was stopped by the two.
"Bail out now!" Zion shouted as he ran towards the horde.
"I will be the bait!" He said and continued on.
Karl crushed his stone, and Melrose too.
Niana and Nico are the only ones left.
Nico grabbed the hand of Niana.
"Give me that stone." He crushed it and teleported away.
"Wai-" Niana was lost on what happened. Now, only her and Zion were in the place.
Zion looked back a little bit, and he saw the scenario going on. He is deep on the enemy's territory, and the only thing that can save him is right in front of him.
Zion grabbed the stone, but did not crush it.
"Catch!" He shouted, as Niana was there, looking so lost. She don't know what to do after the only thing that can save her is gone.
"What?" When she heard that, the stone is already crushed in her forehead.
"No, no, no, Zion no-" She turned into motes of light, and the circle also appeared.
"Nice catch!" Zion said. She saw it, and her eyes can't stop tearing up.
---------------------------------
"Oh, I'm alone now." Zion said as he jumped from time to time, dodging the creatures who wants to gobble him up.
He fired his guns from time to time, and he killed almost two hundred of them now.
"That was fast!" He said as he looked at the one hundred Gacha Points in his interface.
"System, unlock all classes!" He said as he dodged another attack from the N Rank Void Creature.
