The Martial Unity

Rui felt strange as he began spotting an increasing number of Martial Squires the deeper they went. Given that the depth of the Shionel Dungeon was sixty kilometers, most Martial Squires were exploring tunnels at a depth of forty to fifty kilometers. Rui could normally relax the deeper he went since he didn't need to deal with the annoying adventurers who were basically associated with Chairman Deacon, or the annoying freelancers that accepted the bounty that Chairman Deacon had put on his head, which had grown by a factor of eight since it was originally instated.

Now all those annoyances were migrating to the places that were normally devoid of human presence.

Rui and Kane traveled deeper until they reached levels that weren't too far from the Root floor at the bottom of the Shionel Dungeon.

It took more than a day of exploring, but Rui finally managed to detect a new floor.

"Finally!" Kane exclaimed. "This damn dungeon finally yields a floor!"

Kane had truly begun to grow sick of the Shionel Dungeon. He couldn't wait for him and Rui to have finally cleared it to that they never had to enter it ever again. Spending an entire day trudging through annoyingly contorting tunnels was not fun.

"What kind of floor is it?" Kane asked, eagerly.

"It's a… snake pit" Rui narrowed his eyes.

"Urgh," Kane's expression soured as he grumbled. "Why can't it be something nice like a bunch of bunnies?"

"It's a little strange though," Rui frowned.

"What is?" Kane raised an eyebrow.

Rui didn't respond immediately as he observed what he was seeing, moving closer toward the dungeon to get a better look.

The snakes seemed to be constantly wrestling with each other to move toward the center of the floor. As if the rest of the floor would lead to their deaths
