At the sa ti, inside a particular chamber...
Currently, the situation and atmosphere within the tutorial chamber were nothing but lancholy.
Not long ago, they had just 'survived' the fifth wave of outlanders victoriously.
Then, how was the mood supposed to be so cheerless and downhearted?
Well, it was evident that the feeling of loss had outweighed the feeling of triumph...
That's because they had lost three more people to the monsters' horde this ti, one person from the right passageway and the other two from the left passageway.
Whereas there were also so wounded people here and there, the feeling of loss was currently clearly written on everyone's downcasted face.
Still, this was only the fifth wave...
What about the sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth, and tenth?
How many more people would they have to lose?
Would they beco the next cold corpses lying on the 'mound' at the chamber's corner?
Countless thoughts and questions were coming and going within most people's minds endlessly, causing them not to have any mood to shout and cheer at all.
Only downcast, they were...
With only so still-fine people sohow able to soothe and pacify other dejected comrades around them.
Nonetheless, those were the minority here, as most combatant people felt downhearted all the sa.
If the fifth wave, they had lost three people; then what about the fourth wave?
Regarding the fourth wave that had comnced after Jeremy went into the normal-difficulty door, they only lost one person, whom was not so close to anyone, so they could still feel a bit relieved and cheerful at that ti.
However, this ti was different...
They had just lost three people to the fifth wave.
As they grew closer after each life-and-death battle together, so people tended to create so invisible yet sturdy bonds with one another.
That's why everyone felt like they had just lost their siblings or die-hard comrades within the bloody battle...
*Bam*
"Aargh... It hurts..."
The sound of soone's face being punched heavily rang out, followed by the whimpering sound of the victim...
*Bam*
"Kek!"
The one-sided beating was apparently not ended yet, for the punching and beating sounds echoed out once again,
*Bam*
"Why are you doing th..."
*Bam*
It appeared that the brutal assailant didn't want the hear the victim's foul voice while he continued punching the middle-aged man lying on the ground nonstop.
*Bam*
"Aargh!"
Nonetheless...
*Bam*
"Na... No... Please stop. Pwease..."
The sufferer started begging towards the brutal attacker pitifully and ekly with his weak-filled voice.
However...
*Bam*
*Bam*
"I'm... I'm... sworry... I... I..."
*Sob* *Sob*
"..."
Only when the assaulter had heard the apology and sobbing sounds did he finally stop his bloody fist in mid-air, only so inches away from the sobbing man's face...
Then he stood up slowly from above his victim's body while looking around himself to see many bystanders, whom had acted more like audiences instead, stood at the sidelines, watching the unfolding event silently.
Those 'audiences' didn't express much sympathy or any intention to stop the earlier assault at all, as it seed like they were like-minded people with the assailant.
That's natural, after all.
As the victim, Bad Mouther had done sothing terribly awful earlier, causing two people to be killed by his own selfishness.
For that reason, the assailant, Eddie, had to punish the man in question, albeit in the form of 'kicks and punches'.
While the ten or so people only looked on silently, watching the spectacle with loathful eyes.
Surprisingly, those loathful eyes were not directed towards Eddie but Benjamin, the detestable man lying on the ground instead, as it seed like they also didn't like the man's selfishness.
*Flip-flop*
*Flip-flop*
Afterward, the sounds of soone's footsteps ca into the scene hurriedly...
When the newly arrived man saw a certain soone lying wimpily and hurtfully on the ground, he frowned...
"What happened?"
With a serious voice coming out of his mouth, Mitchell questioned everyone whom currently stood within the vicinity of the incident.
As the fight with the fifth wave of monsters had just ended not even one minute ago, they didn't even get a chance to recuperate and group up yet.
However, one of them had already been beaten senselessly, lying and breathing pantingly on the hard cave-like floor.
Even if the victim in question was Bad Mouther or his proper na, Benjamin, who had caused so many troubles, it was still inappropriate to assault their own comrade like this.
Upon hearing one of their two leaders' inquiry, everyone else at the site could only turn their heads towards Eddie, their other leader and the assailant himself.
When Eddie saw that all eyes were on him, including the ones from Mitchell and the soon-to-arrive people from another passageway, Eddie raised his right hand up in a specific direction with hard-to-describe expressions.
With a blood-filled hand, Eddie pointed his index finger at a particular place where laid two people.
To be exact, two cold human corpses...
"Hmm?"
Upon turning his head to look in the pointed direction, Mitchell finally saw two cold bodies, lying still at so ters away,
As the situation was quite chaotic earlier, only now that Eddie had pointed it out for him did he see the two cold bodies...
"There are two people killed in this passag..."
"What? Don't tell ..."
While saying those words, Mitchell finally realized one of the two cold bodies, as his eyes behind the transparent glasses widened in shock.
Because one of the two dead people was actually...
"That... Skylar is dead?"
When Eddie, who was standing beside the sole perpetrator behind the woman's death, Benjamin, had heard Mitchell's truthful words, his face twitched in anger...
Simultaneously, Eddie raised his military boot above Benjamin's head, preparing to turn the man's head into pasted-brain mush.
At this mont, everyone else was looking at the place where the two corpses laid, so no one had paid any attention to Eddie and Benjamin at all...
"Eeek!! Nooo..."
Benjamin shrieked in horror like a frightened chicken...
*Thump!*
The sound of a certain soone being hit suddenly echoed out within the quiet chamber...
