Dungeon of Pride, Laplace

At a glance, the assembly room seemed to be the most important room out of all the ones inside the facility, though that statement is not false, it was also not true. The whole place was built in a way so that the assembly room was situated at the bottom end and kept isolated from the rest of the facility.

It was not only the most important place, but also the most dangerous place. The thousands of test subjects that have been kept inside the frozen wall for hundreds of years, were not actually dead.

Since each of them had been transplanted with precious materials that were too good to throw away, they brought over a powerful ice mage to create this advanced spell [Frozen Coffin] to keep all of them in a state of suspended death.

Never in the history of their entire facility, did such a massive blunder where the spell was destroyed ever occur. Therefore even the deputy head who was the senior-most and had the most experience of working here, knew nothing about what would happen next.

Though he did not know, he was not an idiot to not understand what this entailed. That attack earlier from the subject number 2777 had truly broken the backbone of their facility and there was no way they can recover from it.

Forget about recovering, it would be a miracle if they could even save their life. With his knees giving out, the deputy head fell on his buttocks and started laughing maniacally looking at the ceiling.

Why wouldn't he? After all, their worst nightmare was finally coming true.

SHATTER… SHATTER… sounds of ice blocks shattering into tiny fragments, repeatedly rang out in the background with the being encased within it breaking out.

The reason behind them being called failures is because, they the host have been completely taken over by the beast they have integrated with making them no different than a mindless monster. Their rationality has completely dissipated and the only thing they excelled at was killing.

KIIIIEEERRRKKKK… a heavy unsettling aura spread around the room with hundreds of beasts growling at once, their eyes bloodthirsty and enraged.

"D-Deputy head what do we do now… Deputy Head?!" the researcher tried calling out to the senior-most official only to find that the old man had gone senile.

KYAAA…

Glenn who was nervously watching all of this unfold, hurriedly turned his head after hearing that cry. His eyes landed upon the two girls who were currently being chased by fully transformed beasts with bizarre appearances.

Willing his body to move, he hurriedly ran towards them and engaged with any beasts that tried to attack them. Perhaps because he was getting used to his new body more and more or maybe because he still retained his rationality, he was able to easily overwhelm them.

Nonetheless, when more and more started breaking out of their ice encasement and joining the fray, even he was hard-pressed to block them all.

The abomination watched all of this without any emotions, its eyes only moving occasionally. The hundreds of beasts made a huge black tidal wave that could swallow everything and dropped the temperature of the room to the pits of hell.

"Arrrgghhh… save me…save me custodians golems" the researchers that were the first target of these beasts, squealed like a dying pig about to be butchered. Their colleagues that were near them, tried to run away from this room only to be targeted first.

Their wails of help echoed across the room; however, no matter how many times they cried, the custodian golems that have been shattered completely needed a long time to restore themselves.

Some tried to shut the door only to find that beasts were pouring in from everywhere. Nowhere was safe, even the test subjects that were kept in the capsule room and other sections of the facility, at this moment broke out of their encasement.

The scene was a complete pandemonium with blood and guts spraying everywhere. It was as if this was the very same picture from hell. Cries of agony echoed everywhere as these people in hazmat suits saw the blue wall of ice that caged the monsters that they themselves had created, crack apart.

ROOARR… with lightning running rampant around him, Glenn created a huge imitation of himself with magic and brought its arms down towards the beasts trying to pincer the two girls.

BOOOM… his attack immediately blew them away.

"Are you two alright?" he asked shielding them behind him.

"Y-yeah" the girls replied struggling to keep their voices from trembling. Glenn nodded his head, he observed his surroundings and to his amazement found that most of the beasts were attacking those white suit men and only a few came their way.

It was weird that none of them tried to attack the abomination as if they already had a tacit agreement not to mess with it. What was more peculiar was that even the beasts attacking him were only trying to hurt the ones behind him and not himself.

Glenn came to an understanding, these beasts who were previously human like them, still retained some of the anger and frustration from the past. They weren't hostile towards him and the abomination who were similar to them in nature. Glenn did know if this was a good or bad thing.

"We found the exit, that thing over there is the only oddity out of all the things placed here" Alice said pointing at a weird piece of construct that looked like a big cylinder placed horizontally.

He looked at the thing for a while, unsure whether the thing was really what they thought. It was all good if their guess was right but the problem lay in the place it was at. The huge cylindrical object which they thought was the exit out of here, was near the area where the abomination was standing.

"What do we do, that thing is standing over there" Alice asked fearfully.

Glenn glanced at the cylindrical construct behind it and Bell who was being constricted by its tail. No matter what they had to engage the abomination to free their friend.

"I'll distract it and save Bell, you two use this moment to figure out how to use that thing" He said closing his eyes and trying to feel that vast power deep within him. When he opened his eyes again, a vast field of electricity radiated out of his body that repelled any beasts near him.

After setting his eyes on the abomination, he charged towards it with the momentum of a giant charging bull.

Doombringer Faun an ancient beast race that was said to have mowed down battlefields with their powers and every time they stomped onto the ground, the very landmass would tremble. Their power was so great that many races feared and worshipped them.

It is said that they are distantly related to the continental storms, the Giants.

Glenn's body which was only three meters big, started growing bigger and bigger until he was 1/3rd the size of the abomination.

The abomination who seemed disinterested in everything around it, spotted Glenn charging at him. Its hollow eyes disregarded his presence and flailed its tail as if squatting a fly.

BANG… even when charging with his full power, Glenn was still overpowered by a half-assed attack by the abomination. His body felt numb from the clash and blood leaked out from his mouth but the surprising thing was he endured it all and grabbed hold of the tail.

The abomination tried to flail its tail left and right trying to throw him off nonetheless, he didn't let it go and hanged on. His hands which had transformed into claws of a beast, pierced into the gap between its scales and muscles, finally incurring a violent scream from the abomination.

It instinctively loosened its tail and Bell who was constricted by it, fell down. Glenn immediately caught his friend and tossed him towards the two girls and then immediately ran in a direction opposite them.

Now that the abomination had its eyes on him, there was no way his friends would be safe if he stayed near them. Thus, the best option would be to lead it away from them.

"Glenn!!" Chloe tried to call him but he had already run too far for her voice to reach him.

"That idiot…kuh.. he is trying to save us all by himself" Bell who had come to his senses after being defeated by the abomination said. His body was heavy and he felt like all his strength was drained from him. He tried to stand up but his knees would always give up midway.

"Your body is too tired, you need to rest. We found the exit, we just need to activate it and escape" Chloe reprimanded the boy for his recklessness.

Bell smiled bitterly, escaping here was easier said than done, even if Glenn diverted the attention of that abomination, there was still hundreds or even thousands of fully and partially transformed beasts.

After they are done preying on those people in the white suits, they would be next.

BOOMMM… a resounding boom echoed across the room, Glenn was blasted away by one of the attacks from the abomination and crashed onto the floor face first. When he picked himself up from the debris, he saw one of the white suit men sprawled on the floor laughing maniacally.

There was no way he wouldn't know the man who was the big shot who ordered the others around here. Perhaps because he was in his line of sight or simply because he felt something, but the old man shifted his gaze to him.

The next moment, the old man started laughing in a fit "Hehehaha… run as far as you can, struggle as much as you want, there is no escaping this place".
