However, what the students were about to face was only a single void creature.

And unlike what they had faced in the initial stages, they were about to face what a real void creature was like. No more nerfing the void creatures.

As the hall continued to tremble, the floor ahead of them lit up in a bright blue light that formed a circular pattern. It hummed as it came to life prompting the students close to the sight to back away.No?v(el)B\\jnn

Their guards were raised to the maximum as they watched and waited for their last opponent. Their guess in fighting multiple void creatures of similar level to what they found on the third floor was wrong.

Void creatures in general were much, much stronger than their counterpart hunters of the same level, even peak hunters could not take on such void creatures at the peak.

As the hum continued to increase, a horrifying aura washed over the students.

"!"

Without thought, everyone backed away much further than they were before as their eyes opened wide in horror.

Some students were even weak in the knees. They knew void creatures were powerful and dangerous, however, their experience so far had been mild at best.

Now, they were being exposed to the aura actual void creatures let off. Multiple gulps resounded through the hall as they all waited quietly.

Julia and Ross exchanged glances, and they could see the question in their eyes.

They had felt that aura before, and unlike the one they experienced, this one was lacking in essence.

"Where...?" Julia muttered in confusion. She was sure but she couldn''t recall where she felt that aura.

But now was not time to wonder about auras as the glowing and humming circle in the distance revealed a silhouette of a massive void creature that had humanoid features. Your journey continues with empire

As the figure continued being revealed, more students moved back more and more. They were now clustered close to the walls of the large hall.

"This is bad..."

A student muttered, the fear in his eyes visible for everyone to see, but no one was paying attention.

They all had their eyes glued to the figure being revealed.

Sometime later, the figure appeared in its entirety floating above the circle that was slowly dimming in brightness.

"Ahhh...!"

Like a missile too fast for most to see, the void creature attacked its first group of students, only a few metres away from where Ross and Julia stood just moments ago.

In an instant, several students were shredded to pieces, some exploded in a bloody mess and the rest were injured beyond recognition.

"No!"

Like a record, the cries of several students echoed in the chambers, tears running down their chins.

"Blechhhh!"

Others lost the contents of their stomach right then and there.

The sight was too gory even for them. The blood splashed on the ground, the insides of their comrades, the blank stares of those who were fortunate to have their heads remained.

It was a horrific sight.

But that was not the end as the void creature still had something to show them. A part of them that they hadn''t experienced yet.

With a low growl that sent shivers down their spine, the void creature opened its mouth wide and suddenly a strong attractive force came from its opened mouth and the remains of the students slowly floated towards its mouth.

"S-Save me!"

"I don''t want to die!"

Those injured and unable to move finally came out of their shocked state and called for help. The fearful kids in them finally came out when the chips came down, but no help was coming.

Who was going to stand in the way of that?

While they knew they had to fight it to have a chance at escaping, it did not mean they were eager to die. Their lives came first.

Of course, there were those who tried to do something, but the attractive force was too much for them and if they got closer, they might end up being devoured as well.

''So, this is the real deal...'' Ross thought to himself and swallowed the lump in his throat.

It would take a miracle to survive.
