The map became more useful by the minute as the team pushed onward.

NorthWind used it to spot forks and tricky terrain early on, letting them steer clear of low- lying areas where monsters could easily trap and surround them. RedBean marked every path they took with simple symbols. That way, they wouldn’t be lost if they ever had to fall back.

But the closer they got to the central hall, the tougher the monsters grew.

It wasn’t just their levels skyrocketing. The way they teamed up also got more annoying to deal with.

Bonewarden Sentinels never came alone anymore. They charged straight for the front lines alongside Darkspine Bulls. Crystal Thorn Bugs lay in wait on high ground, ready to burst and shoot spikes the second the team’s formation broke. Cracked Stone Spiders always targeted healers and wounded backline members, spitting silk to snag and drag them off. Rockscale Monitor Lizards worked like movable stone barriers. Once they locked down a narrow passage, the whole team got trapped with no way out.

They couldn’t stop moving. Not even for a second.

Any pause at all would draw more monsters closing in from every direction.

The team learned this rule for certain after a failed attempt to catch a quick break.

They’d just finished wiping out a pack of Darkspine Bulls. Three shield fighters had numb, aching arms from taking repeated heavy hits. One ranged teammate had a deep cut on his leg from crystal shards, and he was bleeding pretty badly.

TartKing asked to stop for three minutes to patch everyone up.

Riley agreed.

But less than two minutes in, they heard footsteps coming from the tunnel behind them. Right after that, loose rocks started falling down the left wall.

NorthWind’s face went pale. He shouted at once, “We can’t stay! Move out now!”

It was already too late.

Two Bonewarden Sentinels spawned behind their group, while a swarm of Crystal Thorn Bugs crawled out of the rocky cracks on their left.

The team had no choice but to fight while backing up.

Nobody died in that fight, but they burned through three defense scrolls and a huge stack of healing potions. 3

After that, no one dared ask for another rest.

TartKing made all injured teammates drink potions on the go. She stuck to the least draining healing spells she had just to keep their health steady. Nobody and the other unhurt members helped support the wounded, making sure they didn’t slow the whole team down.

“We’re past the halfway mark now.”

A quiet wave of relief washed over the team.

They weren’t just wandering in circles this whole time.

The central hall was truly getting closer.

Still, the remaining path on the map looked just as brutal as everything they’d faced before.

A long, narrow stone bridge stretched out right in front of them.

It wasn’t a built bridge at all; it was just a narrow natural ridge between two massive black rock cliffs. Bottomless dark fissures sat on both sides. The path was only wide enough for four or way back five people to walk side by side. There was no way around it, except turning all the and taking a much longer detour.

NorthWind’s expression turned grim after studying the terrain.

“If we get pinned down here, our backline won’t have any room to move or fight back.”

Hanna asked, “Should we send a small scout team ahead first?”

Pineapple Beer shook her head.

“Scouting won’t help. Most monsters on Floor 15 only spawn when the main group gets close. A small squad crossing safely doesn’t mean the whole team will be fine.”

Riley stared at the narrow bridge ahead.
