BOOM BOOM BOOM!

The air rippled with thunder as Rui and Kane evaded lightning bolts meticulously, being careful to avoid being within the vicinity of the lightning bolt to not get exposed to extreme heat.

As they evaded lightning bolts, they also tried to move closer and closer toward the center of the valley. Although the two of them knew that there was no way they would be able to make it to the center of the valley as Martial Squires, they still wanted to push themselves and see how far they could go.

Their progress was very wonky and chaotic. Rui felt strangely nostalgic as he thought back to his fight with the Root. He had been faced with a similar predicament back then as well. Back then, he had needed to close the distance between himself and the Root. He had needed to make marginal progress bit by bit, taking five steps forward, but four steps back.

This was a similar situation. Instead of roots, there were dealing with lightning.

Rui and Kane both froze for a moment as their Primordial Instincts screamed of great peril.

The two of them dove from their spot as a lightning bolt larger than they had ever seen struck the spot that they were less than a millisecond ago.

BOOOM!!!

"Rgh!" The two of them grimaced as they were unable to escape the heat. Their bodies were covered the light burns as the skyrocketing heat of the lightning bolt burned them lightly. Kane was better than Rui considering that he moved away faster and thus got further away, but their outer flesh had turned red.

"What the hell was that?!" Kane asked even as he dodged a lightning bolt that struck his spot a second later.

"That was one of the larger lightning bolts of the Thundering Valley that are more common the deeper we go," Rui replied as the damage he took was healed by his body.

"That one was way thicker than any other lightning bolt we've seen thus far!" Kane exclaimed. "If I actually got hit with that…"
