Zephyr ventured out of the room to seek help for Cliff's injured leg. He assured that Lyra would take care of Cliff while he was gone.
"Cliff, I'll be right back. Don't worry, Lyra's going to defend you." Cliff's swollen leg looked like it was about to bleed and release blood everywhere. Even the courageous Zephyr couldn't afford to see it.
As he navigated the corridors amid the chaos of ongoing skirmishes full of soldiers, he reached a darkened area around Floor 30. Determined to find a way out, Zephyr employed his Hydro Magic, creating a path by which to explore the area and search for an exit.
He floated around looking from every corner to find even a person. No one went below Floor 30.
"Oh my god. No one is here! Do I just go deeper?!" Zephyr shouted. His Hydro Magic would deteriorate in a few seconds and he was in the middle of nowhere. Zephyr went to the side and landed his feet on the ground.
Zephyr felt rejuvenated after those moments of flying. Zephyr ran through the desolate hallways of fallen concrete and moss, but ran as fast as he could after hearing a sound from beneath.
He reached the stairs and jumped down like a bird.
"Here comes Zephyr! Brace yourselves!" Zephyr punched the floor with his aquatic might creating a giant water rift that would reach the lower floors.
The sound of battle from below grew deafening and the sound of screams aground. Zephyr realizes he had reached the sixtieth floor and the air was getting thicker.
Zephyr bulged around the area finding pieces of blood and blades everywhere.
He wiped away his frightened demeanor and ran further into the dungeon, hoping that no one else dies.
Zephyr almost reaches the end before a Nectoid charged at his head, seriously injuring his skull and causing Zephyr to vomit blood. It seemed like the Nectoid had a subconsciousness and a mind.
Zephyr stood up with blood in his mouth, drawing his sword slowly while enchanting it with his Hydro Magic. The sword glowed blue, and Zephyr lunged at the Nectoid.
"Hydro Technique 3: Shallow Emerging!" He shouted
Zephyr slides at the Nectoid and slashes it's stomach with his blade, releasing dozens of Nectoid Oil doses, which splashed onto Zephyr's face.
Meanwhile, the clash between Salvos and Yatsu escalated.
They were clashing swords like never before. Salvos hit Yatsu in the leg, which caused him to back down and putting his sword down and hands up.
Amidst this chaos, Salvos had put a spell on Clymene which caused her to mentally collapse. Yatsu was no match for Salvos.
Nevertheless, Yatsu attempted a potent technique that caused a substantial disruption, but Salvos, fortified by a resilient Cryo shield, managed to withstand the impact. The encounter intensified, transitioning into a vigorous sword fight between the two.
