Snake Den Passage

"Well, let's head out." 

In contrast to Oli's calm tone, Oli sped off at top speed the very next moment with his teammates lining up behind him. 

Death essence was projected in every direction, except for directly in front of Oli. That left a gap for his team to safely advance. And their dash cycle continued some more with a slight change. 

After roughly forty-five to fifty minutes of rushing, the team rested for ten to fifteen minutes.

In reality, Oli rested while the others guarded him with aid from Maytan's dark essence sensory. 

And, to the surprise of the party, they found the same trio of followers catching up to them by the time Oli would finish resting. Though it was most surprising that the rival team's leader was willing to bet on Oli's strategy even as a follower.

But Oli didn't care about that team. Nor did he blame them.
