The air in the cavern was sharp and cool, pressing against their skin as Kai and Kathlyn slipped deeper into the underground tunnels.
They had been running through these strange rooms for what felt like an eternity
At the end their was always something and the last few rooms all had chest They were all empty but still it made kai suspect that a chest is what they needed
The walls pulsed faintly with veins of light, running like liquid silver through the stone but it wasn't the eerie glow that tensed Kai's shoulders or made his fingers twitch near the hilt of his curved blade.
It was the two massive shapes ahead.
Blade Hedgehogs.
Not the harmless kind.
These were high-tier guardian beasts, armored in dense, spiked plates, each bristle of their back like a jagged metal spear.
Their levels floated faintly in Kai's vision.
Level 12.
Both of them.
Kai thought to himself normally this wouldn't be much of a problem having Kathlyn here but both of them are exhausted
