A Nasty Surprise…But Not For the Cohort

'Celestial Radiance!'

Shye raised both Sigrun and Dagr—his twin elemental staffs—causing them to emit a pale lavender light that illuminated the area ten meters in front of him.

The next moment, two roaring balls of flame shot from behind the cohort's vanguard, clearing the entire hallway of black crystal growths.

Shye and the others then pressed on.

After learning the skill [Celestial Radiance], the cohort's crystal clearing speed increased more than twentyfold.

They could now clear an entire short hallway in just two seconds; the longer ones take around five to six.

If they were lucky and the staircase to the next floor was nearby, they could reach the next level within a minute or two.

Now, they had just descended to the forty-ninth floor.

Only one more to go before reaching the floor where the Black Dragon Gate was located.
