Polaris issued a command.
The others nodded, then scattered and positioned themselves around the pool.
The Horseman counted down to three in the public chat, then sent a message —
"Action!"
Splash!
Wham!!
After the five players plunged into the water, they swam straight toward the worn wooden box.
They remained vigilant, their hearts filled with intense unease. The pool felt bizarre, especially after experiencing Polaris's death and the recent Walking Fish attack, leaving them uncertain about what might happen next.
The water was murky, creating a filthy sensation. The mere thought of strange creatures lurking within was unsettling.
It made their skin crawl.
Rustle...
At that moment, not far away, Doghead Gold suddenly froze, splashed the water twice with his hand, and then with a gurgle, he dived down and disappeared below the surface.
"—damn it, I'm the first to die again... Just like Polaris said, a huge tentacle dragged me away; the rest of you, speed up!"
