In a few seconds, all the members of Zack's group met in front of the metallic door that they had found on the floor of the cells.

Because of the trap that they found on that floor, they suspected that as soon as they crossed the next door, they would find themselves in danger, so they wanted to prepare before entering it.

"As soon as we enter, they would undoubtedly try to shoot at us with everything they had, "Zack explained, as he began to sketch his plan on the paper scroll." From the excavation team, you will create a tunnel that we can use to attack them from behind. The rest of you will wait until their tunnel is almost ready, so they can enter just a few moments after we start our attack, so the enemies are paying attention to us. "

"As you order, boss," said four men at the same time.

Every single one of those men had some kind of weapon in their hands. Without losing even a second, they began to inspect the walls of that room, before stopping just in front of one of them and starting to carefully hit the wall with their weapons.

Before each of those hits, their weapons shone with brown light, which caused each time the wall received a hit to lose a big chunk of its structure.

In a few seconds, the stone wall was gone, and instead, a large amount of dirt was left. As soon as they saw this, they touched the dirt with their hands, and with a brown light that came out of them, they began to shape the dirt in such a way that it compressed itself to become a tunnel.

Little by little, and following the stone wall from the outside, the four men continued excavating for a few minutes until they managed to cross more than ten meters, a moment in which they told the rest that they were ready.

"Is everyone ready?" Zack asked while waiting for his group's response."Go!"

At that moment, two of his men tackled the door to break it. As soon as they did that, tens of projectiles appeared in front of them, but they quickly released both water and air energy in front of them, so a shield of water suddenly appeared in front of them, while the air energy made the shield go forward.

The projectiles crashed into the shield, but they lost all their kinetic energy or were consumed by the water shield as soon as they tried to cross it.

The shield only lasted for a few seconds, but that time was enough for most of the team to enter the room before their enemies could attack again.

In no time, all of them entered the room, and while a few created a few stone walls to take cover behind while using earth energy on the floor to change its shape, the rest began to shoot projectiles at every cultist that they could see.

The room where they were fighting was some kind of storage room, but in contrast with the one that they found at the top of the tower, this one was filled with items to use in their rituals, such as glass vials filled with blood, items that radiated corruption, and cut body parts from different creatures, including humans.

In this room, the cultists tried to take cover with the shelves, which worked at first, but suddenly, a thundering noise came from behind them, and before they could even look at it, they saw how five people suddenly appeared, crossing one of the walls that they had at their backs.

While the other four people began to shoot at the cultist while taking cover from a few shelves, Zack used his privileged position to dash toward the nearest cultist and cut him in half with his long sword before he could react.

He tried to do the same with the next one, but as soon as he looked at him, he felt how that man was different from the others.

His skin and hair were white, while his eyes were completely black. He had very long nails, and as soon as he saw Zack, a great aura of corruption began to escape his body.

"That must be the cult leader. I need to kill him as soon as possible. " Zack thought while grasping his sword more firmly.

Suddenly, Zack's body became covered with lightning, and he began to move at a much faster speed than before.

With a single step, he crossed the distance that separated him from the cult leader and stabbed him directly in the chest.

Zack attempted to move toward his next prey, but before he could, he felt a great deal of energy condensed at his back, and when he looked at the cult leader's body again, he realized it had vanished.

Feeling the danger approaching, Zack jumped aside just in time to prevent a ray made of pure corruption from passing through his heart, but instead, it hit him on his right arm.

In that single moment, he felt strange energy begin to enter his body through his arm.

It wasn't the first time that he got wounded by an attack that used corruption as its energy, but this time felt completely different from the others.

In no time, his arm began to take on a purple color, and thousands of stabbing pains began to appear on his arm until the point that he thought about cutting it.

But before losing all hope, he took all the energy that he still had on his dantian and converted it into lightning energy before directing it toward his wounded arm.

Lightning bolts began to burn the flesh of Zack's right arm, while at the same time, it destroyed most of the corruption that it contained.

When he finally managed to contain the remaining corruption on his arm by using his energy, he looked at his surroundings and found out that his men had managed to win the fight and even kill the sect leader.
