Ahhhh!
In the lava lake, heart-wrenching screams echoed continuously. Ling Chen had detected the anomaly beneath the lake ahead of time, allowing him to retreat just in time. However, most people were still focused on fighting for the Fire Infant Fruit and failed to react in time, ultimately being slain by the corpse fiends that surged up like a tidal wave.
The thick scent of blood quickly spread throughout the lava lake.
"Damn it, why are there so many of these ghostly things? Why is this Cave Mansion so strange, able to produce so many corpse fiends?"
"These fiends seem much more powerful than the ordinary ones earlier."
"What's to fear? There's so many of us. Are we really afraid of just a bunch of dead things?"

Murmurs quickly broke out among the crowd. Although they suffered a substantial loss due to being caught off guard, the strong individuals present didn't appear too frightened. After all, they had the numerical advantage.
