The Moving Bone Wall

Squid Ball sprinted frantically through the narrow bone passage.

Behind her, the mobile bone wall, pale white from top to bottom, pursued her relentlessly.

Countless pallid skeletal hands protruded densely from the entire wall, waving and clawing. Their finger joints clicked and clacked as they opened and closed, like the withered claws of countless wronged souls—hideous and eerie.

Not long after Squid Ball had proceeded forward, she discovered that the right-hand passage she had chosen was a sealed dead end. The instant she sensed trouble, she immediately turned around and rushed back, intending to return to the fork in the road.

Squid Ball's Agility stat was not high to begin with. She simply could not match the bone wall's advancing speed.

The distance between the girl and the wall rapidly shrank at a visible rate. A bone-chilling, frigid aura bore down on her from behind, and those flailing skeletal hands were nearly brushing against the hem of her clothes.

Squid Ball's heart pounded wildly as she could only throw herself forward with every ounce of strength she had.

But the instant she leaped up and prepared to climb, Ling Chu abruptly realized that the tops of all the bone walls were covered
