Chapter 288
Clang!
Creak!
A thunderous groan echoed through the coliseum, followed by a metallic grinding that rippled across the ground like an ominous tremor.
It wasn't just the sound—the very earth trembled, shaking so violently that for a moment, it felt as though an earthquake had struck.
Panic surged through the stands. Spectators screamed and clutched at one another, their wide eyes scanning the arena as the quake intensified, growing louder with every heartbeat.
Even Grey tensed, lightning crackling and dancing around his palm, ready to strike at a moment's notice. But then—just as suddenly as it began—the tremors ceased.
A heavy silence followed as all eyes turned toward the far end of the coliseum.
The ground split apart with a deep, grinding shunk, unveiling a mechanical platform hidden beneath.
