章 71: Chapter 71: Spider Nest, Going Deeper

[Do you want to use the Spider Nest Key?]

"Yes."

The door groaned open, revealing the dark, web-strewn passage of the next floor.

Stale air wafted out, thick and suffocating, carrying the distinct, unsettling scent of decaying creatures.

Alex gripped his [Whispers of Shadows] dagger tightly, peering into the shadows, his undead army flanking him.

He could sense the change immediately—this was no ordinary dungeon floor.

As he stepped inside, the ground beneath him felt sticky with webs.

Along the sides of the narrow path, hundreds of other creatures hung in the dense webbing, trapped and drained dry by the predatory arachnids that lurked deeper within.

"W-Wow..." Alice mumbled, hiding behind Alex.
