I stepped forward, and the world shifted.
A pulse rippled through me as the system's voice echoed.
[You have entered the 6th Floor of the Labyrinth.]
[ Quest Type: Extermination ]
[ Requirement: None ]
[ Objective: Eliminate 50 Ogres ]
[You cannot exit this floor until the objective is complete.]
The scenery around me sharpened into focus — a wide, broken plateau surrounded by jagged cliffs, the ground littered with cracked boulders and dried bloodstains.
From the shadows ahead, I heard the low, rumbling growls.
Thud. Thud. Thud.
Massive shapes emerged from the haze — ogres, easily three meters tall, skin a mottled green and gray, muscles rippling under thick hide. Each one wielded a brutal weapon — spiked maces, rusted axes, crude stone hammers.
A smirk tugged at the corner of my lips under the mask.
"Easy." I murmured softly.
The first ogres let out ear-splitting roars, pounding their weapons into the ground, challenging me.
I exhaled slowly, rolling my shoulders.
