Kapitel 688: Netherworld  

[WARNING! You're going to enter STORY MODE! In this mode, the actions and choices you make will decide the fate of this realm]

"Story Mode?" Evie murmured, furrowing her brows in confusion as she exchanged puzzled glances with Ren. 

They had already been embroiled in what felt like a grand narrative back on the surface, so the concept of something different was intriguing.

Ren scratched his head, deep in thought, pondering the meaning of this sudden shift. 

The term was missing something, and he couldn't quite grasp the distinction between the differences between this mode and what he had been doing back on the surface.

"Hey, Ren," Elena piped up, gently tugging at his clothes to draw his attention. Her voice held a note of urgency as she pointed into the distance. "There's someone running in our direction."

In the dimly lit surroundings, Elena's outstretched finger guided Ren's gaze to a shadowy figure dashing toward them.
