章 75: The Sabnok Plains

"Haah… Haah…!"

"Damn it… How did it come to this…"

"No… I don't want to die…"

Amidst harsh breaths and frightened murmurs, a group of people ran across the Sabnok Plains. Their goal: the entrance to the plains, the escape from this nightmare.

"Hurry! Don't slow down!"

"But, senpai…"
