Chapter 198 - Hooded Figure

When the Juggernaut advanced again, its roar echoing through the dungeon walls, Xin was ready. The instant the creature was about to hit him,

Xin activated the Teleport spell. In a flash of light, he disappeared from in front of the Juggernaut, reappearing at a safe distance holding his injuries.

"This gives me some advantage, *Cough!"

Xin, now far from the immediate reach of the monster, realized the gravity of his situation. He was severely injured, and even with his magical abilities, knew that facing the Juggernaut was a risk that could cost his life.

With labored breathing and his body covered in wounds, Xin made a critical decision. It was time to retreat, to live to fight another day.

Juggernaut looked at where Xin had been a moment ago with a confused expression, quickly followed the scent of blood and found him dozens of meters away and ran to his side.

With his heart pounding and mind spinning in search of solutions, Xin prepared to use Teleport again. The Juggernaut, unshakable and merciless, continued its relentless pursuit.

With each teleport, Xin barely managed to maintain a safe distance, his strength rapidly diminishing with each movement.

As he moved frantically, trying to gain time and space, a distant voice called out to him.

"Xin!" An enigmatic voice shouted, coming from an unknown direction.

For a moment, Xin hesitated, questioning whether the voice was real or just a trick of his exhausted mind.

But then, he heard it again, clearer and more urgent. "This way, quickly!"

Without thinking twice and knowing every second was precious, Xin directed his next Teleport towards the voice.

He entered inside a wall with a dark tunnel, searching for the voice, but this was interrupted by the Juggernaut's claw penetrating the wall with force at that moment as he dodged at the last moment and used teleport again.

"Over here!!" The voice was heard again and Xin used teleport again in that direction.

He reappeared near a secret entrance hidden in the shadows, a path he had never noticed before. From within the darkness, a hooded figure waved at him.

"Quick, before he gets to you!" The figure whispered, with evident urgency in their voice.

Xin, trusting his instinct, ran towards the secret entrance. Behind him, the sound of the Juggernaut approaching was like thunder, each step resonating in the depths of the dungeon.

Xin entered the dark passage, the hooded figure right behind him, closing the entrance with a quick hand movement.

*CRACK CRACK*

The Juggernaut began to use its claws to pierce the wall at that moment, it tried to do so for dozens of seconds, but these walls were more reinforced, and the sound of it hitting them stopped after a while as if it had given up.

Inside the passage, Xin finally had a moment to breathe. He leaned against the cold wall, trying to catch his breath while spitting blood. His body was in agony, each wound throbbing with pain.
