Chapter 173 - Fireflies.

The bullet flew through the air; without any obstructions, it reached the massive head of the Centipede.

The Centipede still didn't seem to react; it was like the bullet was invisible to the eye.

Isaac widened his eyes and noticed that the Centipede didn't have any reaction.

The bullet finally reached the massive eye, and since there was nothing in the way to stop it, the shot was successful.

*Bam*

The bullet crashed onto the eye, and the sight which Isaac expected didn't happen.

''What... The... Fuck...'' Isaac staggered backwards after seeing the Centipede's eye being fine!

The destroyed bullet landed on the ground, it showed that it hit its target, but the damage was nonexistent!

The Centipede didn't have any reaction; instead, it was still looking straight at Isaac, but soon that changed.

The ground started trembling and shaking; the culprit for such an event was the Centipede, whose massive body suddenly moved, but an only a little bit.

*Bam!*

Isaac quickly jumped to the side, and his previous spot was struck by the tail.

The tail instantly went after him, without any intention of going easy after the white-haired human fired at its master!

Isaac frowned and felt that the tail seemed strange. It was part of the Centipede, but it acted like it had its own conscience.

The Centipede doesn't seem to care slightest that some ant that can be crushed instantly was here, but the tail didn't act like that.

Isaac quickly put the Musket Rifle in the way, which clashed with the tail, but the speed and velocity of the tail was too much.

The result was as expected. Isaac was sent flying through the air.

He flew out of the Centipede's massive body and was falling towards the dark ground, which he has no idea just how far the bottom is!

Looking at the side, he saw the side of the Centipede's body, which was absolutely massive!

It wouldn't be strange if it was 100 meters in height, maybe even more, and now he is falling from it, the result would be instant death if he lands on the ground.

*Bam!*

''Agh!'' Isaac grunted in pain after his back crashed on a rocky wall, which was invisible because of the darkness around him.

His body bounced away from the rocky wall, but he found salvation from it.

Before he got too far from the rocky wall, he made his move!

He stabbed the blade of the Musket Rifle behind him and successfully managed to stab through the solid rock wall.

*CRACK!*

The blade kept slicing through the rocky wall in downwards motion while Isaac was still hanging from the Musket Rifle, hoping that the blade won't break and that it actually stops his fall!

His body's fall was decreasing significantly, and soon, it completely stopped while he was still hanging from the Musket Rifle!

The blade was only around 10cm in length, and it could barely hold Isaac's weight.

It was barely even inside the rocky wall, and the current feat of him hanging from the Musket Rifle could be said to be miraculous!

''Damn...'' Isaac looked around anxiously and still didn't see the ground anywhere, while the massive body of the Centipede was not that far, but he couldn't even see the place where he was previously.

He tried to feel the rocky wall with his leg if there were enough footholds and handholds to descend to the ground safely, but it was so dark that it was extremely risky, but there didn't seem to be a better solution.

Isaac moved his left arm and moved his hand around the rocky wall, before finding something to grab onto.

Once he was done grabbing something, he moved both his legs and found a proper foothold.

After he was safely on the rocky wall, he pulled the Musket Rifle out of the rocky wall and stored it inside his Inventory.

''Haahhh...'' Isaac shook his head as he looked below him, towards the endless darkness.

''Why would anyone be a climber? This is terrifying.'' He felt like banging his head on the rocky wall and hoped that his current peril was a dream.

But, it was the realest experience he ever had.

Isaac leaned closer to the rocky wall and rested his exhausted body, soon he has to defy death and climb successfully down.

''Alright...'' With a few deep breaths to gather his courage, he started climbing down towards the endless pit of darkness.

He moved his leg down and tried to find a foothold and surprisingly, he found it quickly and it was so good that his whole feet landed on it!

He looked surprised for a moment, before moving his other leg as well and putting it on the foothold.

It felt strange, way different from the rocky terrain; instead, it was somewhat soft, like he was standing on top of the soil.

Isaac frowned and removed his hands from the rocky wall; he crouched and took a handful of the soil into his clenched fist.

''Are you kidding me...'' He wryly smiled and looked around him.

He was on the ground...

He had to climb down 1 meter; that was as far Isaac's climbing career went.

Looking around him, he didn't see the camera anywhere.

''No one saw it... Nice.'' Isaac murmured and threw the soil away and used his sleeve to clean his dirty hand.

After he was done, he saw the slight outline of the massive body of the Centipede, which is easily large enough to squeeze him like a bug.

He also looked at the ceiling, hoping to find the hole where he dropped down from, but not even a tinge of light appeared from the hole, which made it impossible to see it.

He is currently trapped, and the only way to leave is with the help of Teleportation Pearl, but finding it is harder than finding a needle from the haystack.

But then... From the ceiling, something amazing appeared.

Isaac had to cover his eyes after a sudden appearance of light. His eyesight had already gotten used to the darkness, but instantly a light, which was in the color of yellow appeared, which made his eyes had sudden spike in pain.

From the ceiling, hundreds, no... Thousands of fireflies appeared from the tiny cracks of the ceiling and rocky walls!

Instantly, the previous dark cave was illuminated in bright light!

In the end, there were over tens of thousands of fireflies all around the cave.
