Kalel passed and went behind a muscular man who was trying to block access to the upper floor. Kalel could see 6 men and the rest were children and women. They were 15 in total. Kalel found the siblings moving to the closest. Kalel saw a couple next to them and decided to clarify the situation.
" Hello, I'm kalel. Can you explain the situation to us, we don't know what happened earlier ?"
"Nice to meet you. I'm Joan, my friend and I woke up this morning and saw what the happened on the news, we were going to leave to go to the secure zone. We weren't alone in that case, most of the people leaving had made the same decision. We met at the first floor, we were almost 50 people. But at 7 am, monsters began to appear just outside of the door, in the garden, preventing us from leaving. These things then attacked us, at first, they were only the red ones, they weren't dangerous because they couldn't get us. But the fucking green one appeared and they melted the door. Then it became hell. So much people dying!!!" he murmured still in shock.
" I took a glimpse at them before running away, I saw red ones and black ones too, what do they do ?" kalel asked nicely to the girl this time, Joan seemed under to much shocked ready to collapse.
" The red ones they burn you, the green one can melt things but the most dangerous are the black ones, if you got to close they like paralyze you. We killed some at the beginning, it wasn't so hard, they seem to have a core in their jelly body and if you smash it, they die. But after the black one came, people began to get paralyzed then got overrun by the other slimes. We were forced to run away and get to the upper floors. Perhaps we are going to all die." She said slowly, she looked like she gave up on leaving alive.
" Thank you." Said Kalel while moving to the siblings.
Mia and Anthon were on the side, pretty scared. Kalel made a plan with the information he got from the frightened neighbors. He took them aside.
" Guys, I had an idea, we can probably leave this place alive." He said confidently.
" How can we do that ? they said that 35 people died downstairs, dude." Answered angrily Anthon.
" Actually, it is pretty simple, we don't need to pass by the front door or fight these things. My plan is easy, we go to the balcony, use a rope and go down while the slimes are trying to get to us. But we should move fast before they pass the barricade, my rope is not that long so we can only use it on this floor." He explained
They agreed and then they moved to a close flat and went inside, people were watching them move weirdly, they wanted to go higher but some of them were tired so they decided to take a little break. To their surprise, the group they met while running was moving around. In less than 10 min, the green slime will open a path for the others so they needed to leave by then.

Kalel opened his space and went inside, he took him a few moments to find the ropes he looted earlier, he gave them to the siblings. While doing it, he got an idea, he remembered that he needed to kill monsters to level up and in stories slimes are pretty weak to offensive magic.
" You can go down, I have something to do, you should go the supermarket a few streets away, I will join you later. I'm going to try to hunt some of the slime if I'm not there in 2 hours, I will be dead and you will have to reach the safe zone by yourselves." Said kalel
" No, you should come with us, kalel, you could die!" the sister exclaimed.
" Don't worry and go ahead, I will warn the others so they can follow if they want to."
He left the balcony and went to find the leaders of the neighbor's group.
The muscular guy was talking to a pretty middle-aged woman with a little girl by their side. The woman was slowly crying, afraid of dying. Kalel signaled himself.
" Hi, we found a way to leave the place, we can get down by that balcony thanks to a rope, you should move out fast before the slimes pass the barricade."
They watched him uncertainly. After a moment the woman took her daughter and went in direction of the flat kalel was coming from. The man got close to him.
" Young man, thanks for your help, but even if we leave this place, it will be hard to get to the safe, it's more than 9 km away."
The leader then went to the rest of the group and ordered them to move out in direction of the balcony with the ropes. They were moving effectively and without even asking questions.
Kalel left them and went near the obstructed stair, some sort of smoke with a horrible odor was coming from that direction. The acidic slimes were opening a way.
Kalel opened his space pocket and pick out some items, he was hoping that his plan was going to work.
