Chapter 858 - Finally Caught Up!


    Countless giant ming boulders had been hurled into the sky, piercing through the dark clouds.


    A torrent ofva surged from the volcano''s mouth and began spilling over it, rapidly falling towards the forest.


    To make matters worse, the eruption had caused moreva to surge from the cracks on the volcano and ground!


    Yet, neither Felix nor the viewers were eying the spillingva...All of them were allured by one of the most magnificent phenomena that could be observed.


    The clouds had been set ame by the ming boulders!


    This resulted in the oil rain to experience the same fate, making it seem like the sky was raining drops of fire!


    "Take cover!!" Felix yelled out loud the moment he woke up from his daze.


    Webor and the others didn''t hesitate to create gigantic umbres made out of solidified earth, protecting them from getting touched by the rain fire.


    Just to be extra safe, they covered themselves with a muddy skin, making sure that their tainted bodies with oil wouldn''t catch on fire anytime soon.


    With 20% fire resistance reduction, they knew that heat wasn''t going to a pleasant experience.


    Meanwhile, Felix simply engulfed himself in a type of brown sticky poison.


    It was capable of attaching itself to the oil drops and pull them from his skin.


    Before the fire rain could touch it and set everything in mes, Felix extracted it and threw it away.


    ''Electrical field!''


    Szlzlzlzlz!


    Rampaging electricity surrounded him, smashing anything that it touched, from rocks, trees, and even the fire raindrops.


    This was Felix''s idea of a proper shield since he couldn''t wear his suit or hide within his void realm.


    As for his void domain? He was unable to use too since it required him to open a void rift to fuel it.


    But anything rted to interdimensional was banned in this game!


    "Captain! No need to waste your energy, juste hide in my shell." Webor proposed.


    "Don''t worry about me and prepare for impact!" Felix responded while ncing at the falling meteors.


    The hundreds of giant ming boulders had finally prated the clouds and started descending all over the floor!


    With a simple scan, Felix had recognized that not a single area was safe from theirnding zone.


    Boom Boomm!!


    Just when things couldn''t get any worse, giantva pirs began to burst from the ground, forcing them to evade them at all cost.


    It was effortless for Felix due to his size and speed, but the same couldn''t apply to his teammates.


    Although they get warned by the tremors, they were still having difficulty evading them when they kept popping all over the ce akin to mushrooms.


    "F*ck, this is getting too hard!" Rotspawn cursed in irritation.


    "The moment you feel the tremors of theva pirs, use your earth maniption and harden the ground above them!" Nina advised while using this n to keep theva pirs from surfacing.


    It worked great since the only reason the ground was unable to contain theva was due to its feeble quality.


    If hardened, theva would have no choice but remain underground obediently!


    The others copied her strategy and made sure to use only on theva pirs that were actually threatening them.


    This helped them switch most of their focus back to the falling meteors.


    "Here theye!"


    BOOM BOOM!!


    The instant Felix shouted, two gigantic meteors struck tens of meters ahead of him.


    Felix guarded his face while toughening his skin, preparing for the heatwave to smash through him.


    ''F*ck, so hot!''


    He handled the shockwave just fine, but the heat was truly unbearable.


    After all, he wasn''t wearing symbiote suit and his already trash fire resistance had taken another hit with the reduction.


    Unfortunately for him, the meteors weren''t going to wait until he adapted to the heat as they kept bombarding the surrounding area.


    The viewers were surprised to see that not a single meteor had actually targeted him.


    In the eyes of the viewers, Felix seemed like he was getting lucky.


    But in reality, Felix was creating the safest path for him to reach the edge of the forest by simply studying the meteors trajectories and predicting theva pirs with his infrared vision.


    ''Two willnd fifty meters to the right side, one willnd behind me exactly two secondster, three willnd consecutively at sixty, seventy, and ny meters ahead, twova pirs will pop out to my right and left in two seconds...''


    With such predictions, he wasn''t forced to makerge movements to evade the meteors or theva pirs.


    He simply increased or reduced his speed while still sprinting in an almost straight line, appearing like a man who was watched over by the goddess of luck!


    On the other hand, his teammates had a thoroughly different method of dealing with the meteors.


    BOOM BOOM BOOM...


    They kept using their earth maniption to change the meteors'' trajectory, forcing them tond further away from them!


    If it wasn''t for their numbers being too much and their focus being split to deal with theva pirs, they would have been able to actually stop them midair the moment they enter their maniption range!


    "It looks like Landlord''s team has dealt with the meteors'' situation, but what will they do about the approachingva?" Michealmentated while disying the spillingva continuing to fill up the floor.


    At least half of the volcano''s surrounding area had been fallen under the jurisdiction ofva.


    Based on its slow but steady speed, the viewers realized that it wouldn''t be long before entire floor fall victim to this catastrophe.


    After a short while, Felix and his teammates finally reached the tower''s wall...It was pitch ck, making anyone, who was looking it, start tripping that they were staring into the void.


    "What now, captain?" Webor inquired while staring at the approaching theva from everywhere and the iing meteors.


    Just because they reached the end of the floor, it didn''t mean that they were out of the meteors strike zone.


    "Now, we build a base." Felix ordered swiftly, "Girls will be responsible for protecting us from the meteors. Boys, you start building a solidified hill immediately to gain some height over theva."


    "Smart, as long as they keep repairing the hill, theva will pose no dangers to them." Selphie smiled as she watched Felix stand causally above Webor''s head while giving orders.


    Honestly, Felix wanted to do more than just give orders...But, in this floor and with the limitations imposed on him, he was quite useless.


    Rumble!


    Felix dropped those thoughts and focused on the rising gigantic hill underneath them. It was big enough all of them were able to stand on itfortably.


    Still, they kept improving on it until it was turned into a fortified castle!


    "Captain Felix, the meteors'' shower is running thin." Barbyw disclosed in delight.


    "It was about time."


    Felix nodded while ncing at the sky. As she said, there were a mere couple of meteors still falling down.


    As for the inmed cloud? It had already been reced by the volcano''s dark smog, making the atmosphere even more depressing.


    "It''s here." Felix eyed theva sea underneath him causally,pletely confident that the fortified castle wasn''t going to be affected heavily by it.


    With everyone focusing on repairing the damages, there was nothing to fear anymore from this floor.


    Theva pirs had stopped a while ago, the meteor shower had ended, and the sea ofva was as peaceful as normal sea.


    "Phew, if it was this tough on us, I don''t dare to think about what will happen to the others." Webor sighed with an exhausted expression.


    "Don''t underestimate them." Felix shook his head, "They will find a way to manage even if they don''t have the same advantages as us."


    Sure not everyone could build a hill to stay safe from theva, but Felix believed that there were many other options.


    If the yers truly were at their wits end, they could always climb the wall to avoid theva.


    There was no way a survival challenge would be created without a small chance of surviving it.


    Sometimeter...


    "Look, theva is cooling." Webor shared while pointing at the sea ofva.


    It shouldn''t really be referred to as a sea ofva any longer since it was starting to resemble cracked ground.


    "I guess we are close to the concl..."


    -Congrattion challengers.-


    -You have sessfully survived the volcanic eruption and met the conditions to climb to the fourth floor.-


    -Time taken...Calcting...15 minutes and 21 seconds-


    "Another floor conquered by Landlord''s team!" Micheal expressed feverishly.


    "I can''t believe it, they have really caught up to Siren''s team and Kumiho''s team!"


    "It didn''t take them even twenty minutes!"


    "The other teams are still at the first and second floor..."


    The viewers shared the same sentiment as Micheal, feeling that Felix''s team climb was simply too fast. Even the doubters had been silenced.


    Siren''s team and Kumiho''s team were more ahead than the rest by a whole hour, yet they were still caught!


    "Those two teams are still struggling in the fourth floor." Micheal wondered in anticipation, "Do you think Landlord''s team will be able to surpass them and be the first to enter the ancestral floor?"
