Those who were still left in the neighborhood all jumped to their houses to retrieve their most prized possessions before pletely running away from the Yellow Portal.
Van was also deliberating on whether he should run away. His heart was beating so fast that it might leap off from his body. Portal creatures, monsters were about to e out of the Portal. He had only unlocked his System, trying to fight the creatures from the Portal would be tantamount to suicide.

And soon, the rumbling of the air stopped, and a leg of an insect quickly revealed itself from the portal. The leg was almost as long as Van's arms, filled with tiny disheveled hairs protruding out from its black limbs.
And with a slight chitter, the leg moved forward, revealing its set.
