I was swimming slowly deeper into the lake of corruption when I suddenly stopped.
A moment came swimming toward me. It's a large fish monster with black iridescent scales and sharp teeth, that will have no problem in tearing me apart.
Soon, it had reached me; there are barely twenty meters of distance between it and me.
It's too close for the monster of this power. If it found me, I would be in massive trouble. I could survive this monster, but not others that might attack me.
Thankfully, it didn't sense me and swam away.
I watched it for a while before swimming deeper. Inside me, all my clones worked to make me used to the corruption. Sealing all the gaps and doing tiny upgrades.
The progress seemed to build up over time, and I was able to increase my speed.
I could even faster, but I do not want to take the risk. I didn't increase my speed much and kept swimming down, while marvelling at the world inside the corruption.
