Crack!
PUFFF!!
The very thin layer of the barrier buckled as a sudden burst tore through it, a towering metallic figure ripping free as it was flung outward.
The surface shuddered, pressure collapsing unevenly as Dora's weight crushed the top, forcing the balloon-like barrier to bulge and strain at the edges until it could no longer hold.
Like a ruptured balloon, the barrier screamed as it gave way.
PPRRRTTTTT!!!
Dora stood atop the barrier where it stretched toward the needle-sharp tower, her breath hitching as she felt it deep beneath her feet... the barrier almost acting like a balloon that meant at any moment it was going to burst.
Meanwhile, inside the tower, Lyirrs yanked the lever down with both hands, teeth clenched as the core answered with a violent hum.
