"What the f*ck… I still have two days left at least!!!" after almost four hours past the first day of coming out from that thread pathway, I found something quite terrifying happening!
That part of the world… The part that I was heading towards, the surface that was inhabited with the jumpers and such, it started to shift!
The other side started to slowly appear with its ugly face, making me feel like a bucket of cold water was thrown over my head!
That side of that world wasn't supposed to appear to me except after two days at least! I couldn't help but turn and looked at that portal I came from, and thought about one thing I missed.
"It took a longer time to pass through the same distance that I could have crossed in one hour or less…" It suddenly hit me, scaring the sh*t out of me, making my heart freeze inside my chest for a long moment.
That damn place… It wasn't just affecting space, but time as well! What the heck was wrong with these bastards who designed this entire world? Were they determined to not allow anyone to come here or what?
I didn't just stay inside for four hours, but it seemed I wasted more than one day there. The rotation of that world up there was evidence for all that! A very cruel and shocking evidence as well!
"That means… If anyone tried to time his travel to arrive at the surface area, he would end up getting to that hellish core of the world… What a bunch of true devils they were!"
I felt the old and familiar frustration swelling up inside my chest once more. For a moment, the same urge and desire to choke those behind all this to death resurfaced again, making me want to commit murder at any moment.
Soon enough I calmed myself down. "Not like I wasn't prepared already for such a scenario," I sighed, "and luckily this happened in the right time for me to act."
I shifted my attention away from that rotating world, and started to inspect the space around. "I'd either force my way around that hellish part of the world, praying that nothing else would pop up again, or better I should keep myself here for the next five days, roaming around and doing nothing but waste time…"
The decision I made wasn't that hard to predict. I decided to take the safer route, keep myself moving around the silver ground path that Lucas II already created.
The distant and older parts of this path already crumbled. It was either under the scary pulling force of the black holes out there, or thanks to the passage of enough time for Lucas' ability to fade away and lose its effect.
Either way, I got a space that I could simply wander permanently if I wanted to. I ordered my chariot's creatures to drag it around, change route, and come back from where I went.
However, time proved that I was quite naive!
"Damn you bastards! Damn you all!" In two days, and after the full rotation of that side of the planet, something new came in my direction!
From down there, where the other half of this planet lay, I could only watch the other part of the planet without telling what was really going on.
All I saw were endless streams of lava running in rivers, forming giant lakes, seas, and even a few oceans all over that grand and colossal surface of that flat side of the planet.
However right now, and being this close from this damn place, I could finally see the true terror this entire scheme held!
That side of the world didn't just release lava and hell over those getting close to its deadly surface, but also released tons of fountains of lava, releasing death to those standing far away from it at the same time!
I looked, and all I saw was that at the moment that hellish side fully appeared here, it was as if some sort of power got awakened inside, propelling lava in streams, just acting like the propelling zones at the part of the planet I came from.
These threads of lava moved fast, like gigantic fountains erupting from the ground, releasing and sending the lava away to areas that weren't supposed to get in touch with such deadly red matter.
"Isn't it lava? I assume it won't be that hard, right?" I stealthed myself for the incoming impact, as one of these grand pillars of lava was heading towards my direction like a ferocious beast!
Without the need for me to think about it, I knew all these lava pillars and threads were going to fill the entire space in between the propelling threads, ending up at the deadly black hole zone in the centre of this midworld.
Dammit! The ones who designed all this deserved to be tortured in hell for aeons of years without any mercy!
Yet I was proved wrong again! These weren't just normal lava!
*Sizzling!*
I got something inside me, like some sort of constant warning alarm, that made me use my pillar's shields and form as many of them in the little time I had before the arrival of that deadly lava strike.
And the moment that lava pillar appeared and touched my pillar's shields, a mighty and formidable clash erupted, ending up spreading tons of cracks all over the shields!
Damn! These were my supposedly eternal shields! What was wrong with this lava to make it able to crush my shields this fast!
"Thundering Might!" if my few shields wouldn't take it, then ten more would. If ten didn't suffice, then a fifty, a hundred, a thousand, even tens of thousands!
I'd fight and struggle with all my might, buying every single second with my sweat, until that damn hell would be over!
I entered such a battle of attrition against the weird lava for days! I lost count to how many shields I summoned, not how many the lava crushed under its brutal attacks.
