Chapter 346 Darkness

Chapter 346 Darkness

Minutes before the real channel door opened, a team of students trying to return to the other mirror channel had already discovered that something was wrong.

That happened to be the team that included the female knight Alyssa, the child of destiny Roche, Matt and others.

Unlike the combination of Claire and Avis, they did not encounter the mutated murals, but they were also unable to pass through the space-time turbulence zone at the end of the corridor.

After trying various methods without success, they had no choice but to return the same way they came. However, after walking for a long time, they still could not see the stone gate exit they came from.

At this point, they had left the area with the murals and entered the narrow rock passage they had come from.

Judging from the walking time, they have almost walked twice the distance they came from, but the corridor ahead is still pitch black. The exit that they should have reached long ago is nowhere to be seen.

All that was illuminated by the cold white halo of the magic lantern was darkness.

The monotonous footsteps of the crowd echoed in the narrow corridor, and then were gradually swallowed by the darkness. No one spoke, and a faint atmosphere of oppression quietly spread among the team.

"Captain Mondolo, everyone, have you noticed that the length of this corridor seems to have changed?"

After noticing this, Roche spoke decisively to break the atmosphere in the team.

"Did you find anything, Roach?"

When he spoke, the team stopped immediately. In front of the left side of the team, a tall and strong boy with brown hair and red eyes, wearing magic light armor and holding a long-handled staff looked over.

He is Mondolo, a student of the School of Transformation with strength in the middle of the third stage, and the son of a mercenary group leader with brown hair and blue eyes.

What few people know is that he is also a secret member of the new resistance organization "Spark".

In fact, the strongest person in the team is Alyssa, but because Alyssa is unwilling to take the position of commander, the position of captain falls on him.

It is said that before Mondolo was born, his mother dreamed of a giant dragon with red eyes entering her womb, which resulted in his birth.

His father was also very good to him and did not abuse him just because he did not look like himself.

Mondolo was also very motivated and showed great talent. When he grew to the right age, he was selected by the college guide to enter Pamir College. He has been enrolled for seven years. It is expected that he will break through the fourth level before the fifteenth year and meet the graduation requirements.

"No, but I think we have fallen under some kind of magical effect. Even if we keep going like this, I'm afraid we won't be able to escape."

Roche shook his head and expressed his own judgment.

"What should we do, our powerful Lord Roche?"

But before he could continue, a sarcastic voice sounded from the side. A young man with light green hair and strength at the beginning of the third level was looking at him provocatively.

In the previous battle, Roach had used his peak second-level strength to forcibly cross levels and defeat a third-level beginner student on the opposite side, winning a crucial game for the team.

You know, these are not ordinary professionals outside, but elite talents from Pamir College.

Under this premise, although his current strength is only at the peak of the second level, most members of the team attach great importance to the opinions he puts forward.

However, there was also a new teammate who disliked him and thought that he was just lucky and met a weak student, which led to an unfair victory.

His name was Pez, and he was also from a non-noble family. He entered school four years earlier than Roche. In Pamir Academy, students of humble origins like them usually chose to stick together.

“…There are many kinds of magical effects that can cause this phenomenon, such as spatial confusion, illusion corridors, and the sinking of the dream world.

We must first identify which situation we are in, so that we can systematically find a solution.”

Ignoring Pez's provocation, Roach turned directly to the others and expressed his thoughts.

Sometimes he would wonder why there were always people who would jump out to provoke him regardless of the actual situation.

"Don't make things difficult for Roach, Pez, he's just a freshman who has been enrolled for less than a year."

On the side, Matt also spoke up to defend Roach.

Being ignored by Roach made Pez's face turn ugly. Matt's words sounded more like an invisible mockery to Pez.

Less than a year after entering school, his strength has reached the peak of the second level. It took him five full years to reach the peak and break through the second level. Isn't he a waste? "Humph! I..."

Just as he was about to say something, the entire corridor suddenly began to vibrate slightly without any warning. And as time went by, the vibration became stronger and stronger!

"What happened? ...Michał? Gouw? Kasser?!"

Along with this vibration, three teammates in the team who had just remained silent suddenly disappeared into the air silently.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Seeing this strange scene appear in front of them, everyone was suddenly a little panicked.

At this moment, it was the moment when the real body of the gate opened - ........ With the opening of the real gate, the corridor environment in all the mirrors trembled at the same time, and the environment began to undergo abnormal changes.

Some students who were exploring immediately realized something was wrong, and from time to time someone was surprised to find that some of their teammates had already disappeared.

What followed them all the way was not their teammates, but something else! "Look! What is that?"

As the vibrations intensified, everyone noticed that an extremely deep darkness was gradually spreading from the corridor in the direction they had originally come from!

It was not ordinary darkness that could be illuminated by light, but a completely dark mass that was like an endless void.

Footprints, rocks, air, everything was swallowed up by the surging darkness.

Some people threw magic and objects into the darkness to test it, but everything eventually disappeared silently in the darkness.

Seeing this horrifying scene, everyone began to flee forward frantically. Even though they knew there was an insurmountable obstacle ahead, no one wanted to experience the feeling of being swept away by the darkness.

Under this situation, everyone quickly ran out of the narrow corridor and entered the area where the murals were painted.

To everyone's surprise, and making them cry out for God's blessing, the chaotic space-time isolation zone that originally stretched across the front had disappeared at some point.

Without time to think, many students hurriedly continued to move forward to avoid being caught up by the darkness that was rapidly approaching from behind.

If they were more careful in their panic, they would find that the number of strange figures depicted on the sixth mural exactly corresponded to the number of people who had just disappeared in the team.

As everyone moved forward quickly, finally, a circular exit just like the one they entered appeared in everyone's sight.
