Shutting down the system [2]

Booom—! 

The metallic door that led to the room shook as a thunderous explosion rang out. 

"…They're already here." 

Focusing my attention on the door, my face turned solemn. 

After that, turning my attention towards the window that displayed the percentage of progress, I mused to myself. 

'The rate of progress at the moment is about 1% for every five seconds. The current progress is 7%, and therefore, we would need to stall them for about four hundred and sixty-five seconds. That's a little bit under eight minutes.'

With the aid of the chip inside my head, I was able to calculate the time we needed to stall the duergars in seconds.

Although it did not sound like a lot of time, given our current circumstances and the opponents we were up against, it was too long. The stakes were up against us.
