Backdoors: The Survival Guide

Chapter 9: Obstacles

After he finished exchanging, the creature was still staring at me as he extended his hand, Does he still want to exchange? Because we had enough so I tried to communicate with the creature.

" For now we have enough transactions" I said, well even though I do not know whether this creature will understand or not. 

But beyond my estimation, the creature nodded in understanding before going into the distance. Can we talk to other creatures too? I didn't know that the accessibility of all languages could also be used for other creatures? or is it just the creature that understands? I don't know, the most important thing is that we have information that there are also non-aggressive creatures like this creature.

Back to the others, I gave our exchange items to Hyunsuk and Olivia. Seeing the results of the exchange the two were also happy, especially when we managed to get some Medical materials such as bandage rolls and cooling spray. With this Olivia's recovery will be faster.

Taking, cooling spray. I sprayed it on the bruise on Olivia's leg, after a while I applied a balm to her leg.

" Is this sick? " i asked when I touched the bruise on his leg.

" Not too " said Olivia with a timid face.

I quickly realized, it seemed like I had been touching Olivia's feet for too long, so I quickly pulled my hand.

" Well, it looks like your bruise will heal quickly" I said awkwardly.

" Y-yes "

After a few moments of rest, we finally decided to continue our journey. After all we can't keep going in this place, I don't know if other monsters will come or not so we can only continue on our way.

Because of her aching leg, Olivia was forced to take it. At first he refused, but when the man himself had trouble standing up at last we decided to bring Olivia to me. Because it would be difficult if I brought some bags, so Hyunsuk took on the role as he picked up Olivia's bag.

Under Hyunsuk's banter, we continued on our way. Since it would be difficult to defend himself with his current position, Hyunsuk became the front man leading the way because Hyunsuk himself had the Parang I had previously given.

According to the hours we got, now it has shown at 16:00 which means it is late afternoon if it is on earth. I don't know what time we started waking up in the white room, but if I take into account the time I'm sure we've spent at least a day from looking for a way out of the white room to getting to this place.

Is this our second day in the world? I don't know, at least I'm still grateful to be alive today.

We continued along the tunnel, no matter how long we had walked at least we had passed dozens of branches that made our legs quite tired. Of course to save energy we several times stopped in a place with good enough lighting just to fill the energy.

So far we have also been lucky enough not to find any monsters other than the previous two creatures.

After all, we also found some supplies on the way that contained several packages of food, long pieces of white cloth, and a fire axe.

Well this was enough to fill our supplies, and for the fire axe, since Hyunsuk did not use it I decided to keep the ax in case there was a situation that required this ax to be done. And after all the effectiveness of axes has more when compared to machetes or katanas.

While passing through one of the ventilation ducts, we finally found a red door at the end of the hallway. This should be a happy moment because the existence of the door means we will find another place whether it is an exit or the next room.

But I did not make a happy expression or anything because at the end of this hall, standing in front of the red door was a creature that resembled a large dog. The creature's tongue is so long that it can protrude to the floor.

The entire body is covered in red and black skin with muscles that stand out like bodybuilders. This creature has no eyes, but even then I can tell that it is aware of our existence with certainty when it is meant to start growling loudly at us.

Looking at this creature, I thought, "Well it doesn't seem like it's going to be easy to reach the exit "
