64 Time Paradox (1/2)

[Boss if I could ask for help I would have long done it; the School ring seemed to jammed, so forget about the old man.]

Quinn's eyes dimmed out and his excitement dampened hearing Elgar's logical explanation.

[Boss I can give you visuals on the surrounding without the disturbance of the Black Fog. But I'll have to pull your conscious into Zenith Box so don't resist.]

'Whatever its better than nothing'

********

At the entrance, the Blind Old man was rushing to Quinn and his friends but everything happens too quickly that even before he could enter the cave all the students were stuck in that Black fog.

The corrosive Black fog somehow blocked his Divine Sense so he was completely clueless about the situation inside. Moreover, the Black Fog seemed to slowly expand and if the old man got struck he'll really be blinded after all his divine sense were his eyes.

But the old guy didn't care about these unnecessary things he just dashed at his quickest speed; if he wasn't crippled he would have long reached Quinn.

*****

Suddenly Quinn saw clear visuals, though he could the black fog; Quinn could saw all the damages. The terrain was completely transformed into a grey dessert, all the rocks turned into ashes while his friends were quivering from fright.

Even Quinn was terrified at the start let alone these little kids; then Quinn turned to Kallis. He was flabbergasted seeing Kallis transformation his fair skin turned to deep charcoal, not that he had a prejudice against dark-skinned people. It's just the transformation was too sudden for anyone.

The Black Fog was slowly expanding as the rocks were slowly powered like they were in some sort of blender. Then uncooked egg which managed to escape the corrosive fog earlier caught Quinn's attention.

The egg's smooth surface was now filled with lots of dents and few black fungi like marks.

The alarm started to ring seeing these, it's pretty evident that the Corrosive Black fog found a way devour living objects. This means they must find a way to escape before their last layer of protection, the spirit dress is devoured.

Quinn didn't panic or anxious, his face turned solemn and serious.

'Elgar, can you calculate how much time we exactly have?'

Quinn didn't explain the phenomenon because he knew Elgar would have also figured it out, so he didn't plan on wasting the precious time. After a few seconds, Elgar gave his estimate and Quinn's face turned grave and sour.

[Boss we exactly have 8 minutes before the school uniform's completely destroyed. The black fog will directly kill you guys the moment you lose the last piece of armor.]

Elgar wasn't polite, he didn't waste any time. Meanwhile, Elgar was also trying to figure out a feasible way to escape from this dire condition.

But the situation drastically changed the next second; everything stopped, literally froze to stand still. The ashes which were falling of the rocks just froze and stood still defying the 'Law of Gravity'.

The entire Natal Dawn School was frozen to stand still. Not only the school whole Unique froze, but the planet also didn't spin and just hung in the cosmos like a suspended ball.

Fran who was leisurely reading a book in his study Froze in his chair and the ebony chick Kelly cleaning the shelf also stood like a lifeless doll. Ben was sitting on a tree like a stone statue.
