Stay?
The future was uncertain.
But Murphy had simply been standing aside the entire time, watching everything with a detached gaze.
He neither approved nor disapproved of Raymond's decision, nor did he show any emotion about whether he would stay or leave.
His gaze slowly swept over the shrinking passage, the dense horde of monsters, the distant burning fortress, and the group of hesitant survivors. And then...
THUD!!!
Murphy moved.
He didn't say a word. He simply took a single, ordinary step forward.
His right foot landed nonchalantly on the solid ground beneath him.
A terrifying boom—incredibly muffled, yet seeming to detonate directly in everyone's chest—erupted suddenly!
It wasn't the simple sound of a footstep. It was more like a mountain suddenly crashing down to earth!
Centered on where Murphy's right foot had landed, the solid ground instantly caved in as if struck by an invisible sledgehammer, forming a shallow crater more than three meters in diameter!
