บท 502: Familiar

Liam watched as the cloud of darkness engulfed the dome in just a few seconds.

The dome acted like an immovable rock against a violent, gushing river.

And slowly, Liam saw the effects it had on the invisible barrier of force.

'I'd guess all these defenses are Rank 5 in power,' Liam thought. 'The Iron Hammer is Rank 5… so it's no wonder.'

Liam looked towards the black metal pillars. 'They're made out of Vicirum. They really held back no expense.'

Then, Liam's eyes eventually landed on the ceiling.

The last rays of light were blocked out fully by now, casting dark shadows within.

However, Liam could see perfectly fine.

In fact, one could say it was quite cozy!

It was like being tucked underneath warm blankets while a thunderstorm echoed just outside. 

As the seconds ticked down, Liam couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

The cloud of brownish, black darkness wasn't going to get through the barrier!
