The moment night arrived, Grey felt the atmosphere throughout the entire Corroded Zone change.
The shadows of the trees grew longer, stretching across the ground like enormous black fingers, while the wind became even colder than before. A chilling silence descended over the surroundings.
There was no longer any sound of rustling leaves or mutated creatures wandering through the darkness. The strange cries and roars that Grey had been hearing for hours had also come to a complete stop.
At this moment, Grey noticed something even stranger.
The shadow of a nearby tree suddenly began to stretch across the ground, extending for an extremely long distance. It was as if something of unimaginable length was about to emerge from within it.
Grey's eyes narrowed.
The phenomenon did not happen to just one tree. One after another, the shadows of the surrounding trees began stretching farther and farther, covering large portions of the ground beneath them.
