I crossed the door and entered a new level. But... this level, unlike the one I just exited, felt more... sinister. I couldn't shake the feeling that something was wrong. Even my Spider-Senses were mildly activated, warning me of the broken items on the floor. None of the objects should pierce my suit, as it's nigh-indestructible and can only be damaged by Dark weapons and Darks themselves. But besides that, the eerie sensation of something trying to invade my mind persisted.

This Level, from what it seems, resembles an abandoned hospital, with an extreme environment. The amount of dust here is dangerous for any normal person. It's probably why Toxin started filtering the air that enters the mask. The debris here appears to have been intentionally scattered, with more hazards becoming apparent the further I walk as if their purpose is to injure any wanderer who is too clumsy.

I have a feeling that this level is Class: Deadzone. I've been on edge since entering this place. There has to be something on this floor that keeps activating my Spider-sense. Probably a psychological attack. Those are infamous here in The Backrooms, so it's a possibility. What's got me curious are the hazards on the floor; I sense something on their edges. I extended my hand, symbiotic tendrils slithering downwards, grabbing a broken needle from the floor. Toxin brought it close to me as we both started inspecting it.


(Karito) "Toxin?"

(Toxin) "Yes?"

(Karito) "If my memory serves me right. Which usually does, does the hazards lying on the ground contain "Burning Pain"?"

(Toxin) "Yeah, it is. It's everywhere. Though, it shouldn't do anything to you."

(Karito) He nods "Yeah, because of you and my detoxification skill."


Spider-Sense!


(Karito) "Do you feel that?"

(Toxin) "Yeah, it seems the Darks are doing something."

(Karito) "They did..."

(Toxin) "What did they do?"

(Karito) "The passive knowledge skill for Guardians have been blocked off."

(Toxin) "So any information we could've gotten from the Nexus is blocked off, huh?"

(Karito) "Yeah. I'm going to do thing by memory."

(Toxin) "That Passive really did save our asses."

(Karito) "Yeah, it was the only reason why I basically knew everything. But without it, I tend to forget things pretty easily."
