Charles ran anxiously through the dark tunnel, having already become roughly accustomed to this strange body; he could easily hang upside down from the ceiling as if by instinct.
But this was no cause for celebration. Being trapped in the body of a Monster meant that his own body was being controlled by the Monster.
He had miscalculated before, thinking it cautious enough to send only an eye to follow and explore. He never imagined that the enemy could remotely control his original body on the ship by merely capturing his eyeball.
Charles was extremely anxious now, not knowing how the Monster would use his body to confront his crew. He had to get there immediately to inform them of everything that had happened here.
These Monsters had no eyes; they sensed vibrations in the ground with their eight palms to know their surroundings.
Moving swiftly, Charles suddenly stopped dead, the rapid motion ceasing completely as he sensed something approaching ahead.
