The Armor that had been given to the participants and their fighters, could only do so much against the harshness of Tundra.
After all, aside from the terrible heat of the environment, there was also the gravity that threatened to shatter their knees.
At this point, it was as if each and every one of them was carrying a mountain on their shoulders.
It was easier for many to just drag their feet against the ground, and this torment they suffered was made lighter by the armor and their magic as released to aid their movements.
The Red flags that were supposed to be gathered at different points with the number assigned to the Participant were before them, but seeing and touching were now worlds apart.
For some of those that had become very cocky, throwing away their armor because they had seen Lenny come through the Portal like it was nothing, the pain that there suffered as a result of their actions was many times more.
A few instantly became crushed to meatpaste the moment they entered Tundra.
However, in their terrible struggle, Lenny walked through the Portal into Tundra. Even With Victor on his back, he did not look as if the gravity nor the hot atmosphere affected him even in the least.
Lenny stepped into Tundra, he looked around at those who found themselves unfortunately too weak to move, and then, he walked past them.
Of course, there were those that were of significant strength that had made it through Tundra such as Riff or Morgana.
However, it was still heartbreaking for these people to see Lenny just walk past them like it was nothing.
"Lenny! We only have twelve hours to make it back. But time works differently in different Sub plane. This one is no different. If we fall behind, we won't make it in time." Victor advised.
Lenny nodded. He bounced up and down a few times, and then with a kick against the ground, he shot through into the distance.
*Boom!*
He was like a bullet shot out of the barrel.
Lenny rushed past the people far off into the distance.
All of them could not help but pause and stare at him in disbelief.
This was the same thing for a big part of the audience back at the Arena.
Lady Vinegar turned to Agnes with a gleeful smile on her face.
Agnes rolled her eyes, "So what! That is nothing. Riff left a long time ago. there is no way that Lenny will make it to him.
Meanwhile, Allison secretly prayed that Lenny made it. Of course, it was all for the simple fact that Lenny was carrying Victor.
The Hot wind of the tundra blew harshly, and with Lenny's speed, The heat seemed to have increased. but Victor held on tight.
This was also a kind of test.
Lenny had come through these parts before, but navigating through it was not a problem.
As Lenny moved, he would pick up the flag that was attributed with them on the way, sending it into his storage unit.
As he did this, he continued his advance. Soon, he could see the Portal that led to Imperilment far off in the distance.
The Gravity here was lighter than the rest of the plane. This allowed water to move in a funny manner through the air.
The scene was ethereal to look at. Water formed long swirls in the air, some frozen and others not. Some of them were like mirrors and others were like long water slides forming flawlessly in the air.
Ironically, regardless of this, the atmosphere was still packed with enough heat to instantly evaporate a normal person's existence.
However, only a few distance to the Portal, and Lenny noticed that the flags were missing.
The flags were according to numbers. There were a lot of them.
It was done this way so that one person would not take all the flags and instantly end the tournament based on speed alone.
However, someone had clearly taken the flag that was meant for them.
This made Lenny frown as his sixth sense told him that something was up.
All of a sudden, he felt a blade speed through the air as it headed for his back.
However, Lenny's fingers moved slightly, and just before the Blade touched Victor, it stopped in mid-air.
Victor was taken by surprise at this.
he had not even felt the impending danger and yet, his senses had become exceeding sharp about his environment.
"Hehehehe...." There was suddenly a loud laughter. "Lenny Tales! You know, I entered this tournament just to make sure that I found you."
The voice came from all around them.
However, Looking about the place, Lenny could not see anyone.
Slowly, He let Victor drop from his back.
The moment Victor did, he was surprised by how the gravity pulled him to the ground, threatening to break his bones.
However, Lenny waved his hands and two new runes appeared on the armor that he wore.
"Wow! That's really fancy. Casting an elemental rune for earth and another for fire resistance so easily. Now, I see why the servant of the Royal House of Gluttony lost at your hands. It couldn't be helped. He was too weak in the first place."
Till this moment, Lenny had not yet seen the person.
*Swush!*
*Swush!*
Two blades from nowhere shot at Lenny.
However, his fingers moved slightly again and the blades paused in mid-air before falling to the ground.
"Even Your control of Cosmic Energy is impeccable!" The voice commented.
This made Lenny raise a Brow, "Is this guy gathering information about me?" Lenny thought to himself. The only people that he knew that gathered so much information were naturally assassins.
A thought came to Lenny's mind and he asked out loud, "I take that you work for one of the royal Families. Which one is it?"
"I am Vice from the Leviathan Family Of Avarice, and you Lenny Tales have all that is MINE!"
