Adam tried not to overthink it and moved the plank to enter the hexagon. It seemed that most of the lamps inside were broken, so the corridors in this hexagon were poorly lit, and some areas were in complete darkness.

The corridors were filled with dust and grime, making it seem like this hexagon was abandoned or very poorly maintained, much like the hexagon where Adam lived with his godfather when he was a child.

The body of the bear began to glow like a fluorescent sticker, and Adam followed the little bear to one of the corridors. The doors in this hallway were made of wood and somewhat damaged.

Some pieces of bones and broken furniture were scattered on the floor, so Adam had to be careful not to step on anything that might make noise and attract the creature.

The bear led him to a door that wasn't closed, so Adam could enter without any problems. Inside the room, it was pitch black, and it wouldn't be easy for anyone else to find the box, but Adam only had to go where the fluorescent little bear had stopped to find the box easily.

The box was actually a rather large and heavy suitcase, so it wasn't easy for the young hero to carry it to the exit.

With great effort, the boy dragged the suitcase along the floor. It was a pity that Adam wasn't stronger, because the noise of the suitcase scraping on the floor attracted the inhabitant of this hexagon.

*Puff, Puff, Puff *... The door to the room fell to the ground with force, and something entered the room.

In the dark room, Adam could only make out the outline of a person covered with lumps of flesh all over their body. The lumps were like large pimples, the size of oranges, giving the person a very inhuman appearance.

Startled by the sudden noise, the frightened child let go of the suitcase and searched for a good hiding spot. The creature searched the room for a while, and when it was about to find Adam, the bear burst out of the room, screaming like crazy in the corridors.

The Corruptus ran at a surprisingly fast speed, considering the poor condition of its body, chasing the bear through the corridors. Adam instantly realized that probably due to this trick, this part would be easier than the previous one.

The young hero went back to retrieve the suitcase and took advantage of the chaos caused by the bear to run as fast as he could while dragging the suitcase along the floor. Now, the important thing was to escape; the bear was already masking the noise of the suitcase being dragged.

With great effort, Adam managed to leave the hexagon with the suitcase. It wasn't easy for the boy to get the suitcase through the plank, but the bear was keeping the Corruptus entertained well enough to give him all the time he needed. Once outside, Adam waited for the bear to return.

When the bear came out, Adam shouted at him angrily:

—But why the heck did we go through so much trouble to get the aroma if you could do that? Being a sticker, there's no way it could catch you! You could have stuck to the ceiling and made it jump for hours! I almost died for nothing!

—Kid, do you really think I would do it for fun?—the bear responded, annoyed by the yelling —You know how the Corruptus react to the smell of uncorrupted flesh. No matter how much noise I made, it would always run straight towards your red head!

Adam didn't respond, but he continued cursing internally. The young hero had never insulted anyone, but this bear deserved more than an insult if it truly sent him to the infected floor of Toy Makers for no reason.

However, Adam didn't know the truth, and even though this little bear could have done it for fun, it was better not to know the truth and just focus on completing the mission. Currently, the young man only needs this suitcase to really serve to get some little books.

—Oh, by the way, we need to take the suitcase up to the 4th out of 5 floors—the bear said with a vengeful smile on his face.

—Are you telling me I have to climb 200 stairs with this suitcase?!—Adam shouted, almost dying of displeasure upon hearing the information.
