"That was how my Little Alina died, i still haven't discovered who did that and could never dare to take revenge..." Andrei explained this as Machaon was listening to him silently.
There were some ripples in his eyes.
"HERE!!!" The voice was heard from outside as guards started to approach the cave.
"DAMNIT!!!" Andrei stood up, took Machaon in his hands, and rushed away from the cave, he was searching for a chance to get down from this mountain, but the only way he knew that was down was in front of the castle that right now was being protected by the enormous amount of people, how could he even approach that death trap.
--
"Neus?" Alex opened his eyes wide, he never expected someone to have Neus in this place.
"Yes... i... can feel it..." Anzhel responded.
"Where," Dimas asked, he was also scared someone could just jump out and kill them instantly.
"Follow me..." Anzhel stood up.
Alex shook his head "No, we don't know if that person or a being is safe, we need to get out, we can find out what happened to us, clear everything, and come back with everyone else." He said this to calm everyone.
"Alex is right, we can't blindly rush to our deaths," Ivan answered.
"Let's go." Alex pointed his hand toward the exit, cracks in the ceiling were getting bigger and bigger, and they were getting close to the exit.
And that was exactly true, they reached the exit in a few minutes.
"FINALLY!!!" Alex laughed and rushed out to the light they saw after being in darkness so much.
*BSGGHGHGH*
The group rushed out to the light and reached the exit.
"Huh?" Alex stopped.
*BSGGHHG**
*BSGHGHHG*
*BSGGHHHH*
*BSGHHGH*
*BSGGHHGHG*
Everyone just knocked on him.
They all fell.
"Aghhh, what the underworld Alex!!!" Dimas cursed, why did he stop, they were rushing out so fast controlling their speed was too hard.
"Damn..." Ivan fell on his hand.
"Ugh..." Anzhel groaned as he hit his hand on Ivan's ass.
"look..." Alex didn't mind the cursing he stood up and pointed his hand upwards.
Everyone immediately looked up, and they were completely shocked.
In front of them was an enormous staircase that was going up in the sky, the stairs looked extremely small and fragile, they were going so high in the sky... it was impossible to see the peak.
"How... is this possible..." Anzhel groaned...
"Just what did we do that they put us here..." Everyone was flabbergasted, even if they did something bad, the worst that could have happened was they would be put in a normal dungeon, but from there, they hadn't seen even a slither of any human, they were the only ones in this dungeon, and it looked like this wasn't a normal dungeon at that, this was an exclusive prison.
"Let's go up..." Anzhel wanted to get out of this place, as they got far away from the prison cells, he felt better but it was still a creepy feeling everywhere. he still had a pale face and was shaking a lot.
"No wait..." Alex took his metal bar and.
*BSGGGHGHHGGH*
He threw it in the sky.
*Crack...*
The staircase cracked.
"What's wrong with you Alex!!! You just cracked the damn stair..." Dimas almost got a heart attack, Alex threw the bar too far, if that stair broke, they would need to cling 5 meters to reach the new stairs.
"I didn't throw the bar that strongly, this thing is just very fragile and i exactly know what this place is..." He looked back.
"Fake exit... exit to confuse escapees." Alex sighed, everything was too weird here.
"Why would anyone want to make a fake exit this big, it's just a waste of resources and time, i think this is an actual exit, there is no way someone from this small city would be able to afford to take out the enormous ground like this and building just to disturb the people who want to escape it." With a pale face, Anzhel rushed out to the stairs.
"No Anzhel come back, this is a fake exit, i know it." Alex had seen this kind of existence many times on Earth, in the powerful prison they even had simulations of the environment just to mess with the prisoners.
"No, i said it is real!!!" Anzhel shook Alex's hand off and went on.
"Anzhel!!!" Alex caught him.
"This is fake, let's go back, and find another way. believe me..." Alex said this.
Anzhel stopped, veins came to his head and he turned back and yelled.
"WHY DO I HAVE TO BELIEVE YOU HUH!!!?? YOU ARE NOT OUR CAPTAIN!!! YOU ARE JUST A RANDOM LEACH LIVING IN OUR VILLAGE DOING NOTHING AT ALL!!!" He yelled out...
Shocking everyone.
Alex let Anzhel go and muttered.
"I...." He could not find his words.
"ALRIGHT!!! Everyone needs to calm down. everyone is under stress right now, we don't want to hurt each other's feelings, going at each other is the worst thing that can happen here." Ivan went in the middle of Alex and Anzhel.
"That is too far Anzhel, we accepted Alex a long time ago, he is even a member of our crew, Do you remember the welcoming party?" Dimas said this.
"I... am sorry Alex... i don't know what happened to me. I just felt so angry... I am sorry." Anzhel shook and immediately looked at Alex.
"It's... alright, we are in a bad situation right now... but please believe me... this is fake..." Alex sighed and smiled warmly.
"Yes..." Everyone nodded.
And turned back, they would find another way to escape.
"No, let's search the room first," Alex said and looked around, the room was circular, it was made from white bricks and perfectly placed... cement.
"Just what is this thing made from..." Alex frowned and said this.
Everyone was looking through this room, they needed to find anything that would lead them to escape.
3 Hours Later.
Anzhel was tired so he went back and leaned on the walls, he looked at his hands, they were completely pale, he had bags under his eyes, and he felt really bad about what he said against Alex.
And as he yawned and stretched.
*Click*
"AAAAGHHGHH!!!" Anzhel fell back.
"Huh?" Everyone looked back.
They saw the door opening behind Anzhel.
"YES!!! WE FOUND THE ESCAPE!!! HAHAHAHAHAH!!!" Dimas and Ivan yelled out and laughed, finally after searching for all this time, they found the exit.
"LETS GO ALEX!!!" Dimas said this and everyone rushed to the door.
Alex stood there in the room with his eyebrows clenched.
"Automatically opening door in this timeline?... or... is it just magic..." He looked around...
"Huh?.." Alex shook his head and cleaned his eyes.
For a moment... he felt like everything he saw... disappeared.
Alex shook his head and went in the door with everyone.
