Chapter: 505
Screeching noises came from the mist as the third one died, and the attack was over.
All the dihexapedes crawling over the tower disappeared and the dungeon went completely quiet again.
“Okay, looks like it’s over. Let’s move.” Jay pointed to the mist.
They had to climb over the piled up corpses to get back outside, but then they were well on their way.
“Hmm… three dihexapedes…” Jay thought as they ran through the cloud, beginning to notice a pattern.
Once more, a crescendo of screeching sounds pierced the silence – right as another tower appeared in the mist.
Once again they repeated the same strategy: Enter the tower, form a wall of skeletons, exterminate the hopeless creatures.
After a short battle later in the new tower, three more dihexapedes had died.

Just like last time the dungeon went quiet after three were slain.
“Ok, I think that pretty much confirms it… They retreat after three die.” Jay nodded silently to himself.
“You alright there?” Anya asked, seeing him nod. He looked like he knew something.
“Yeah. I just have a hunch. Ready to leave?” Jay decided not to share in case he was wrong.
“Yep” she smiled, “They’re getting easier to kill. I guess that congenital linking skill makes them weaker as they die.”
“Oh yeah, I forgot about that – Heh, I just thought we were getting more efficient.” Jay chuckled with a shrug.
Anya smiled back as she ripped a bolt out of a dihexapede.
“Probably a mix of both.” she added.
“Alright, let’s see if we can make it into the next tower before the next attack.”
“Just try to keep up” Anya curled her lips.
Jay stashed his weapon and shield away as they both ran through the fog.
*Scriiiiii!~*
“Damn, so soon?” Anya frowned.
“No… I think the next tower must just be further away. Let’s just keep running.” Jay urged her as he made three skeletons cover them from behind again.
Without much more warning, the level 1 creature was the first to be snatched.
