Chapter 22 The Void of Corruption and Bloody Memories
The sea of blood moved slowly, washing over Arthur's ankles. The wind blowing in this place did not carry oxygen, but rather the foul stench of past sins and despair. Right before his eyes, Malakor's shadow towered high like a tower of darkness. The ancient demon's form was not solid. The edges of his black robe continuously melted and blended into the surrounding air.The black system screen blinked wildly in the corner of Arthur's eye.[Soul Integrity 40 Percent and continuously dropping.][Warning. If soul integrity reaches zero, your physical body will be completely taken over by this entity.]Arthur swatted the screen away with a casual blink. He raised his right hand, which still radiated a dim golden light. He stared at the giant demon without a single ounce of fear in his eyes."You really love pulling people's souls into this smelly place, wtf," Arthur said with a condescending tone. "Your face is really ugly in person, damn it, you are better off hiding behind the swamp fog
Chapter 21 The Clash of Steel and the Purple Knight
The headless knight's footsteps made the swamp water puddles shake violently. Every time those rusty gold boots stepped into the mud, the toxic water around them boiled and evaporated into incredibly thick purple smoke. The creaking sound of the worn-out armor scraping together sounded like the screams of tortured metal.Arthur gripped Finn's short sword tightly. The predator mode in his brain analyzed the enemy's posture at full speed. The system screen in front of his eyes blinked, providing brief data. Level 45. A thirty-five level difference from him. This was no longer about agility or muscle strength, this was a fight against walking death."Spread out, wtf," Arthur yelled, giving the command. "Do not stand in a straight line."The order came out just in time. The giant knight raised his massive sword covered in black moss and swung it horizontally.His speed made absolutely zero sense for armor that heavy.Arthur ducked until his face touched the mud. The wind from the sword sl
Chapter 20 Mental Corruption and the Rise of the Mud Creatures
The short sword blade whizzed, slicing through the toxic swamp air. It was only millimeters away from the skin on Lyra's neck. The girl did not even have time to blink, let alone dodge. Time seemed to stop in the middle of the green fog that was choking their lungs.Clang.Bright sparks flew right in front of Lyra's face. Bramble leaped at full speed and parried the deadly attack using the rest of his broken steel sword. The clash of steel against steel was so strong that it made Arthur's hands shake violently.Without wasting a single second, Kaelen dashed from the side. The Elf prince spun his body and unleashed a solid kick right into Arthur's solar plexus.Arthur was thrown backward. His body hit a foul-smelling mud puddle with a loud splash. His sword slipped from his grip."You really want to kill us, asshole," Kaelen yelled while cocking his rifle and aiming straight at Arthur's head. "I told you your brain was being eaten away by this fog, wtf.""Do not shoot him, Kaelen," Lyr
Chapter 19 The Swamp of Illusions and Shadows of the Past
The iron elevator cage shot upward at a speed that tore at their sanity. The sound of grinding rusty gears was deafening. Arthur, Lyra, Kaelen, Bramble, and Grimwald were thrown to the iron floor, piled on top of each other, enduring the gravitational pressure that felt like it wanted to force their guts out.Below them, the rumbling sound of Sector Zero's collapse sounded like the world was ending.Bam.The elevator stopped abruptly with a brutal crash at the end of the rail. The impact sent them all flying into the ceiling of the iron cage before falling back to the floor. The barred doors opened automatically, releasing hot steam that smelled of gunpowder.They had arrived at the surface of the mountain, right at the emergency exit of the Khaz Grom mine that faced directly into a thickly fogged valley.Arthur rolled out of the elevator and fell face down on the muddy ground. He coughed violently. Blood mixed with volcanic ash spilled from his mouth. His right hand, which he had jus
Chapter 18 The Magma Pipe and the Collapse of Sector Zero
The air in Sector Zero suddenly became so hot that it felt like Arthur's lungs were burning every time he took a breath. The giant earth dragon brood mother pulled her body completely out of the ravine. Her height truly matched the main tower of the academy. Her black scales coated in red crystals scraped against the cave walls, creating a deafening screeching sound and massive sparks.Hot lava dripped heavily from between her fangs, melting the obsidian floor into a boiling red liquid. The monster's two pairs of giant red eyes locked tightly onto the small group at the edge of the crater. Especially onto Arthur, who was still holding the Shard of Dawn.The black system screen blinked wildly without mercy in front of Arthur's eyes.[Warning. Air temperature reaching lethal limits.] [Probability of winning 0 Percent. Evacuation is the only option.]Arthur wiped the blood-mixed sweat from his forehead. The predator mode in his brain analyzed the situation at insane speeds. There was no
Chapter 17 Deadly Integration and the Brood Mother
The dozens of mutant earth dragons did not wait for a second invitation. Three giant monsters from the front line leaped forward at the same time. Their mouths opened wide, showing off thousands of sharp fangs dripping with deadly acid.Arthur did not take a step back. His injured leg did not even shift a single centimeter from its position. Instead of dodging, Arthur threw himself forward, sliding across the obsidian stone floor. He reached out his right hand and immediately grabbed the Shard of Dawn hovering above the crater.Right as his skin touched the sacred crystal, a massive explosion of energy occurred.A golden shockwave swept across the entire area of Sector Zero. The three earth dragons suspended in the air were instantly thrown backward and smashed into stone pillars, shattering them to pieces.Inside Arthur's head, it felt like a volcano was erupting. An absurd burning sensation spread from his palm, scorching every blood vessel in his arm, and traveling up toward his he
