Description
Level 597.5 is a sublevel of Level 597; it forms part of the Cluster I and is between the aforementioned and Level 598.
Level 597.5 resembles a volcanic landscape made of molten rock, with lakes of lava scattered across the level. The seemingly infinite hellscape has a plentiful amount of volcanoes and mountains dotting the wasteland, which, along the irregularity of the terrain, makes traversing it treacherous.
Volcanoes at Level 597.5 completely define if a wanderer can stay in the level long enough; they are extremely active, and in the event of an eruption, the toxic smoke of burning sulfur (ph 2) in the air can destroy a wanderer's lungs in minutes. Strange weather patterns occur when liquid of unknown composition starts dropping from the sky after an eruption. This weather ends after a few hours but can end a human life instantly; the temperature of the unknown substance is about 452,3°F (233,5°C) and doesn't cool down.
The atmosphere is overwhelming and has scorching heat; temperatures vary between 150°F (65°C) and 170°F (76°C), this thermal sensation is lethal for humans. Wanderers should NOT stay longer than necessary in Level 597.5 without special equipment. It's estimated that a wanderer without protection could last up to 18 minutes before dying of asphyxiation or heatstroke. Otherwise, with a special suit, this time can be increased to one hour.
Very rarely, volcanoes don't erupt for a long time. During this state, the air starts to cool down and gets drops to 101°F(38,3°C). While that happens, some of the lava starts to crystallize, which allows investigations and the rescue of information that has been previously given about Level 597.5.
Colonies & Outposts
Numerous attempts have been made to establish colonies for researching nature in its entirety at Level 597.5, but due to temperatures impossible for human life, every attempt has failed. A next attempt is expected as soon as the protective suits can allow the stay for many more hours.
Level 597.5 Hazards
<tabber>
|-|Acid rain=
After an eruption, the atmosphere fills with smoke, and lava lakes form. Acid rain takes place too; these chemical acids are extremely hot and corrosive. The suits DO NOT protect against these high temperatures, so in acid rain, the only thing left to do is hide in rock formations.
The M.E.G. has tried to collect these substances for study in safer places; however, during noclipping, the substance does not seem to be able to leave Level 597.5.
|-|Suffocation=
Despite the heat temperature and the toxicity of the air, as long as there are no volcanic eruptions, Level 597.5 can still be explorable.
Volcanic eruptions release toxic remains (sulfuric acid), filling the entire atmosphere with smoke. If the wanderer is not wearing a gas mask, they will be asphyxiated almost instantly. If a research team doesn't have mask equipment and an eruption is approaching, evacuation is mandatory.
|-|Heatstroke=
The human body has a limit, and the atmosphere at this level totally exceeds it. Heatstroke, is the most common death in research groups, is caused by negligence since the times in which explorations are allowed cannot exceed one hour.

==Recommendations:==
Without equipment, it's not advisable to enter Level 597.5 under any circumstances. However, if it's for mapping or research reasons, The M.E.G. recommends:
*Polarized stopwatch, helps the wanderer to calculate their limited time in the level.
*Gas mask.
*A lot of Almond Water, dehydration is fatal.
Entrances and Exits
==Entrances==
*Noclipping near a hydrothermic lake in Level 597 will lead the wanderer here.
*Noclip in the walls of Level 763 will lead one here.
*Bad karma at Level 999.
==Exits==
*Noclipping in this level can randomly send the wanderer to Level 10.99.
*Wrapping in a volcanic waterfall will take the wanderer to Level 830.
*During the cooling stage, noclipping in dry lava will lead you the wanderer to Level 426.
