Neo walked through the black desert.
He saw the door to Depth Level 2.
It was a swirling mass of shadows, about a day's walk away.
Tremors appeared on the ground. Bones of various colors—white, yellow, black—jutted out from the earth.
Revived corpses of monsters and mythical beasts began to unearth themselves.
"Seems like there's a Necromancer here."
"Is he related to why Mira became so strong in the novel?"
Dozens, perhaps hundreds, of corpses emerged.
Instead of taking a stance, Neo continued to walk.
Red lightning crackled around him. It traveled from his core to his legs, entering the ground.
The red lightning pulsed through the earth, killing the revived corpses before they could fully emerge.
"They're really weak."
The journey was uneventful.
Ghouls, ghosts, Dullahans, Wraiths.
They continued to attempt becoming roadblocks for him.
