Before me, the final trial in the obstacle course lay. It was a simple path to the doors ahead—but a narrow one. Beside it, on either side, were lava pools down below. From the lava rose four spinning wooden structures, each holding a spiked metal ball. The structures each spun at different speeds, flailing around the balls wildly, and with zero pattern whatsoever. Sometimes, they even changed direction all of a sudden, and there was no way to tell when they would do so.
It was like the pendulum challenge from before, but the luck factor was amplified thousandfold—and I didn't like it one bit.
"… This better give me some insanely good rewards," I muttered, tired of doing this the 'fair' way. I could easily blast through this entire place, after all. Even nuking this whole volcano wasn't outside of my capabilities.
