Ihwa: Just now where have you been? What with those blood!?
Ihwa look at the blood stained at Zald mouth.
Zald*wiping mouth*: Nothing, just fill up my stomach. Can't go further with an empty stomach.

Entering Floor 29...
Ihwa: Woah...
Zald: Ah I miss the forest...
Maxim: The trees are tall, blocking the light from the ceiling, just like horror story in the books.
What represent in from of them is a huge forest fill up with trees that extreme tall that they couldn't even view the whole picture of their top side. Despite there light could cross over the leaves but couldn't shine the ground. It is just a night forest with moonlight.
Hector: Stay alert. The monsters here will ambush from the shadow of these trees.
Zald: Bloodsaurus.

The light from the ceiling reflect by the water and cause the whole area shine with blue light. It is very obvious to be seen.
Zald: ?
Zald *Touches tree trunk*: This is....Shit! Don't go!

*Popopopop!*
Nearly 10 bloodsaurus turn into ashes after they get sliced by Maxim's spear.
Hector: Formation!
The expedition team form into a battle formation of small circle, nearly 5 person in circle.
Hector: Crush them!
The circles act as tanks and crushing their enemies, the claws of their enemies are useless against their shield. magic spell and spear could destroy their enemies in short and long range.
The battle won't last long for 20 minutes...
Victoria: Green skin. Small fires!
*Crack* Victoria crush the dinosaur head with her bare hand.

Hector: Agree. Warriors! I gave you 5 minutes to take the water and collect the fruits. We'll be leaving here immediately!
Ihwa: Where to headed next?
Zald: 'Demon garden'
Ihwa: Huh?
Zald: 'Demon garden', a plain area without grass and trees. A place suitable for camping.
Ihwa: If that's so then why call 'Demon garden'
Zald: A place where with only withered trees, no grass even could grow there. Look's like hell but ironically it has wide space and a good spot for adventurer to keep guard so mostly adventurer will camp on there.
Ihwa: How did you know--
Zeus and Hera members: Arh!!!
*Paw!* A Zeus member get knock by a blunt weapon.
Zald: That's--!
Ihwa: Gorilla?
Maxim: Rider?
A black fur ape monster cover with armor on it's shoulder and riding a red skin bloodsaurus.
*Wu! Wu! Wu!* The ape wave it's weapon again.
*Clang!* A big sword repel the attack back.
*Ra!* *Clang!*
The red bloodsaurus bite the gauntlet of the Zald.
Zald: !
Zald: Roar!!!!
Zald raise his forearms up and use his another hand to lift up the bloodsaurus stomach.
*Wu! Wu! Wu!* *Raaaa!!!* The bloodsaurus moan with panick sound along with it's rider.
