After the light swallowed them, the Broken Dawn guild found themselves standing on solid ground once again.
Above their heads, bold words written in blood-red hovered clearly.
[BLOOD TOWER – FLOOR 31]
The new floor returned to the Tower's usual structure—long stone corridors, branching paths, and blood torches hanging from the walls. After the open-world feeling of Floor 30, it almost felt cramped, the air thick and suffocating.
"Shii, I can barely breathe."
"The air here feels disgusting."
While some players complained, Gabriel glanced at the faint map overlay only he could see. The lines displayed three main branches on Floor 31: one looping back with treasure rooms, one leading to a mini-boss and side objective, and one forming the shortest path straight to the floor guardian.
After studying the map, he pointed toward the right-hand corridor. "This way. We'll skip optional rooms for now."
No one argued.
They moved out.
