Ashton surprises everyone by reaching the fourth floor of a challenged dungeon, a feat unusual since killing monsters here isn’t mandatory. Instead, he must navigate through a cave filled with Ghastly Spiders that attack on sight and slow his movements with damaging bites. Relying on his new Talent Bonus, Aqua Step, earned from the previous floor, Ashton attempts to outrun the spiders despite stacking damage-over-time effects. His progress continues steadily as he decides to pursue another Talent Bonus before time runs out, leaving his success uncertain as the spider attacks intensify.
