”Begin the hunt!”

As soon as Leo's voice died down, Ahmed, Brad, and Illiad immediately darted towards the closest target to them.

Since they were in a mountain that has five floors of maze, it took them a considerable amount of time before they could finally go down.

Reaching on the same floor as their target, they immediately rushed towards them as if knowing already the pathways to take. In truth, it was Leo informing them through their communicators which way they should take. In addition to that, with the Doorway Keys, they did not really need to take long detours just to reach their destination.

Unlike the other teams, there were practically no hindrances blocking Ahmed's team's path forward.

Holes after holes were created through the walls as Ahmed's team passed through them. The holes would quickly revert back again to normal the moment they passed through.

On the light screens, it could be seen just how fast Ahmed's team was approaching their target.

After a few minutes, Ahmed's team finally reached their target. Only a single wall separated them. Just like what they did before, only one person from their team was sent to fight while the other two would stay at the rear to support.

Before finally engaging in the fight, both Ahmed and Brad went to look for a good location to hide while providing support to Illiad first. Fortunately for them, there was a nearby tall place with three floors of a maze, thus giving them a good view of their target, which was located on the second floor of the maze.

Silently and carefully, they positioned themselves in a well-hidden location before informing Illiad through his communicator that they are now prepared.

As soon as Illiad received the signal, he immediately opened up a hole just right beside the three-man team as he then jumped inside without any hesitation.

Whooooosh!

Illiad waved his right arm as a dagger immediately appeared in his hand. He gripped the dagger tightly as he went straight towards the throat of the person closest to him.

Slit!

Being completely caught off guard caused that person to be unable to defend himself against Illiad. Because of that, the latter's dagger easily slit his throat while he could only stare towards him in a mixture of disbelief and shocked in his eyes.

Without waiting for the remaining two to respond, Illiad immediately launched himself forward towards them.

Clang! Clang!

However, no matter how quick Illiad's action was, the other two were still able to swiftly react in time to defend themselves from his dagger. They both grabbed a sword from their Storage Rings and parry the dagger.

The death of one of their comrades has already served as a great reminder to the remaining two to not underestimate Illiad. Because of that, after blocking Illiad's dagger, the other person who was perfectly opened swiftly waved his sword to counterattack, evidently not wanting to waste such a great opportunity presented in front of him.

Unfortunately, just as that person's sword was about to reach Illiad, the wall by the side of the latter suddenly opened up as he went through it. The hole then closed immediately, as if nothing had happened just now.

Although they were rendered shocked by such an event, they were still able to analyze the sudden situation that had just happened.

They both already knew about the existence of the chests and how helpful the items inside were, as they have stumbled upon a few of them along the way here. So they were able to quickly arrived at the conclusion that Illiad must have used an item found in the chest to opened and close a hole in the wall.

Instantly, the two of them understood the unfavorable direness of their current situation. Both of their back moves against each other in order to cover their most dangerous blind spot.

”Vine!”

One of them also casted a Vine spell around their surroundings, in hopes of hindering Illiad's path the moment he dares to appear through one of those walls.

All of a sudden, though, they soon realized that the vines appearing around them were more than what they could summon.

Before they could even understand the situation, the two of them were already trapped inside a sphere made out of vines.

Whooosh!

Not wanting to wait for what their outcome would be while being stuck inside this sphere made out of vines, one of them quickly decide to cut his way through out of the wall of vines, while the other one remained cautious to guard their back.

Whoooosh! Whoooosh! Whoooosh!

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

But just as that person was about to swing his sword once again, he soon heard a series of multiple explosions of fireball sounding above their heads.
