Chapter 24: Ethereal Puzzle
As Min-ho and Ji-su stepped into the room, the wall immediately began sliding shut behind them—sealing them in before they even reached the puzzle.
Min-ho cast one last glance past the narrowing gap, where Sae-wee and Dok-su were still locked in combat. A moment later, the wall thudded shut.
’They had better stop fighting,’ he thought, then turned around.
Ji-su was already at the puzzle, fiddling with it and analyzing its entirety.
Min-ho joined him in silence, observing.
"You there yet?" Pink-hair’s voice emanated.
Min-ho lifted his gaze to the holes on the walls, where the voices were coming from.
"I am. You can begin to solve the puzzle now," Min-ho said.
"There’s a problem," another voice rang in.
"What is it?" Min-ho asked, scanning the room for any potential danger. His words lingered for a moment before he got a response.
"I don’t know what I’m doing," one of the Z-Streamers said, causing Min-ho’s stomach to sink.
