Crack!
Suddenly, as the magicians continued observing the strange shell, a sharp fracture appeared on its smooth white surface.
"Huh!"
The magicians all immediately turned toward the source of the sound.
"It's reacting," the old man said, eyes narrowing with focused intensity.
Boom!
In an instant, the crack expanded violently. A section of the dome-like shell shattered outward with a deafening burst, sending shards scattering across the earth. From the broken portion, the once-hidden interior of the mysterious globe was now visible.
Inside, the environment was chaotic—scarred, fractured ground stretched in every direction, resembling the aftermath of a massive earthquake. A dense, eerie mist clung to the terrain, swirling in silence.
Thud!
From the shattered opening, a figure stepped forward.
It wasn't human.
