During a forced, eightfold‑sped challenge, the System accelerates the countdown and locks the field: anomalies enter berserk mode and the Midnight Battle begins. Players scramble to find the key and reach the first floor; observers marvel, "Can a human really have such terrifying power?" Player Leonard fights through waves, tallying kills to 243 and clearing the stage. As the teleport countdown ticks—three, two, one—Leonard is pulled away. A taunting voice calls him stingy and warns, "I'll come find you again next time," leaving the winner pursued and the threat unresolved.
