Sudden Catastrophe (1/2)

"Phew, done."

Erix finally relaxed after thirty minutes of constant focus on extracting the life essence of Belrugian Vitalis.

Rin removed her hands from Erix's back before locking her arms around his neck. "What's the progress now?" she asked.

Lilith sat across Erix, smiling, "I expect a good number because this one had quite a lot of pure life power."

"Haha, it's indeed a good number," Erix laughed and widely grinned as he revealed, "I've reached 89%!"

And right at that moment, a notification rang in their heads.

Not just them, but every single person in Langriss Woodland heard the voice.

[Emergency event. Abyss rule 3rd enacted. Imminent catastrophe by a rule-breaker has been started.]

[Langriss Woodland has been locked down. No one can leave or enter until the catastrophe is prevented.]

"What the...."

Erix, Rin, and Lilith were dumbfounded.

But two more notifications rang.

The most important ones.
