Bab 199: Abyssal Monster

Although Benjamin, Aron, and the others were prepared for a confrontation with the members of the Night Blades once they entered the building where Elder Lawrence was hiding, they hadn't encountered many Night Blades members inside.

The group had been searching the building for an hour. During that time, they had scoured several floors and discovered a few seemingly hidden rooms. However, they hadn't found anything noteworthy in any of the places they searched.

Throughout their search, the group remained vigilant, which caused their stamina to deplete quickly. Eventually, Wendy and Anna could no longer continue at a rapid pace. Wendy collapsed to the ground and said in a very tired tone, "Can we take a break? We've been wandering aimlessly in this building for a long time without finding any clues. It's possible that the information on that scroll you're holding was designed by Elder Lawrence to mislead you. Irving could also have been misled by him."
