### Summary
The chapter continues to immerse readers in a terrifying and high-stakes escape, with the monstrous statues eliciting genuine fear and drawing comparisons to horror films. A pivotal and shocking moment occurs when Sung Jinwoo calmly realizes he has lost a leg, an event that underscores his unique composure amidst chaos. However, this incident fuels a significant wave of criticism directed at the B-Rank healer, Lee Joo-Hee. Readers overwhelmingly express frustration with her character, labeling her "annoying" and useless for freezing and crying instead of providing crucial support. Her inaction, particularly when Jinwoo is grievously injured, is a dominant point of contention, with some rereaders stating she is the reason they initially dropped the series. The brutal death of another hunter, Mr. Park, who had a family and a pregnant wife, deepens the chapter's grim atmosphere. In stark contrast to the surrounding panic, Jinwoo is praised for being the "smartest" one in the party despite his low rank. The scene's effectiveness is confirmed by both rereaders and anime viewers, who note that the tension remains palpable and was adapted exceptionally well.
