The spines underneath his feet swiftly withdrew into the walls. Not expecting such to happen, the way none of the players did, Max fell three spine steps away from his current position before he was finally able to grip a spine firmly.

The fire boundary around him had dispersed the moment he fell. He pondered on activating the fire aura but on second thought, since it had been upgraded by the system, using the ability would engulf almost everything around him in flames, even the surviving players would not be spared.

Beads of sweat decorated his face as he was having a hard time pulling himself back up. His hands were slowly slipping off but he was persistent to get back up.

Not daring to look back for once, he decided to activate an ability, he felt might be of help while he struggled to keep his grip firm on the spine he managed to catch onto.
