Whispering softly, Claudio walked forward. He was ready to personally face the Beyonder hiding in the darkness at the end of the corridor. Dorothy's heart tightened when she heard his footsteps.
"Oh no... That guy's real body is coming. I've already used Dragon Roar, and the cooldown for the second Dragon Roar is at least half a day. This is not good..."
In the darkness, Dorothy thought seriously that the unrelenting force just now failed to defeat the opponent in one breath, which put her in a passive situation. Without the dragon roar, it is almost impossible for her to win against a opponent!
Just when Dorothy was deciding whether to turn around and run away immediately or take out all her resources to fight the opponent head-on, suddenly, a rumbling sound was heard in the space.
The cracks on the wall that was originally shattered by the dragon's roar had begun to spread to the ceiling of this corridor and spread rapidly. Finally, after its load-bearing structure was damaged, the ceiling of the ruins corridor could no longer support the weight and began to collapse.
"What……"
Hearing that something was wrong, Dorothy immediately ran away from the collapse point. Claudio, who was about to find the enemy in the dark, also retreated quickly when he saw this.
Then, with a loud bang, the corridor that was hit hard by the dragon's roar began to collapse, and the broken ceiling fell down in pieces and hit the floor of the corridor.
In the end, the entire corridor was completely blocked due to a collapse, but fortunately, the collapse was only partial and the impact was not large. Only the corridor that was traversed by the dragon's roar collapsed. Dorothy dodged quickly enough and escaped.
"Phew...that was close..."
Standing on the edge of the collapse, Dorothy took out a gas lamp from the magic box and lit it. Then she looked at the ruins in front of her that completely blocked the road and said with a sigh of relief.
"Really... using Dragon Roar in a place like this is very dangerous. Fortunately, I didn't use the third stage, otherwise I would never be able to escape from the collapse caused by it..."
Dorothy thought thankfully in her heart that if she had used three stages of her unstoppable force, it would not have been just a corridor that collapsed, but the entire floor would have collapsed.
"Now, with this whole corridor of ruins blocking the way, the Batman probably can't get through. If he's a 'cup', he might be able to break through all the ruins. If he's a wall climber, he might be able to force his way through. But judging from his appearance, he's neither of those... I hope he can't get through..."
Looking at the ruins in front of her, Dorothy breathed a sigh of relief. Although the collapse almost buried her, it also separated her from the bat man, and she had solved the crisis temporarily.
"But the price is that the other end of the ruins is the exit of the ruins. I am now completely trapped in this lower level of the ruins. If I can only try to explore deeper and see if I can find an exit from somewhere else..."
"So now, we can only continue to move forward."
Dorothy whispered, then took out the magic box, and got two corpse dolls and a gas lamp out of it. She asked one of them to hold a gas lamp and stand guard in front of the ruins that blocked the road, warning the bat man if he would come over again in some way. Then she asked the other one to hold the lamp and explore the way for her, and walked deeper into the ruins.
…
At the same time, on the other side of the road-blocking ruins, Claudio stood with his hands behind his back, looking indifferently at the rubble of rocks in front of him, and spoke.
"Did that violent voice actually cause a landslide? Humph...it's quite powerful..."
Claudio snorted coldly, and then he transformed into a group of bats again and flew up, along the corridor all the way to the upper floor, and then gathered again at the stairs and returned to human form.
Just now, Dorothy and Claudio had a conflict on the first floor of the ruins. Now Claudio has retreated to the stairs leading down to the fifth floor.
"But...if you think you can stop me with just a bunch of rocks, you are very wrong."
Claudio muttered as he stared at the stairs going down in front of him. Then he fumbled in his pocket for a while and took out a small bottle of blood. After he opened it and drank it, the remaining injuries on his body healed quickly.
Then Claudius pulled out a papyrus seal with the double symbols of "shadow" and "cup" printed on it.
"Poison Mist Seal..."
Muttering, Claudius slapped the talisman on his body. After the talisman burned and disappeared, he took a deep breath, then consumed the two spiritual powers of "shadow" and "cup" in his body, opened his mouth and spewed out a burst of purple-red mist towards the bottom of the stairs.
This purple-red gas seemed to be heavier than air. After being spewed out by Claudio, it quickly settled from the stairs to the ground on the next floor.
Claudio spewed out a large amount of poison gas without taking a breath. After the poison gas settled to the first floor, it quickly spread out in all directions and rolled in the direction of the corridor.
In this way, Claudio relied on the talisman and used his spiritual power to create poison gas, which filled the first floor where Dorothy was. When the billowing purple-red mist rushed to the road-blocking ruins, it penetrated all the way inside along the cracks between the ruins, and gradually seeped from one side of the ruins to the other.
Since the road is blocked by the ruins, we will inject poison gas and use it to completely fill the entire first floor. The gaps between the rocks and ruins can hinder Claudius, but cannot prevent the spread of poison gas!
Finally, when the entire first floor is filled with poison gas, all the creatures hiding inside will be poisoned to death, and Claudius' goal will be achieved.

Two-in-one chapters. I haven't had a good work and rest schedule recently. I wanted to adjust my work and rest schedule, but I didn't succeed. Because of the fluctuations in writing due to the adjustment of work and rest schedule, there are many two-in-one chapters. Please forgive me.
